Description

With 6.5 million fans expected at the 2026 World Cup, ICE's acting director still won't commit to pausing enforcement during the tournament. Resident Legal Diva Melba Pearson breaks down the conflicting city-by-city promises, the bills in Congress trying to stop stadium sweeps, and what actually happens — legally — if federal agents make an arrest at a World Cup venue. Be sure to know your rights if you choose to attend a World Cup match. Follow @ResidentLegalDiva on YouTube, Substack, and socials.

If they are stupid enough to start sh!t during the World Cup with all the great publicity the US is getting currently from international visitors on social media, they will destroy the renewed interest in international travel coming to the US and we are suffering enough from their previous BS already.

There has not been such a conflict between citizens and so-called authorities (ICE) since the Viet Nam War!

ICE had been the biggest disgrace for the US for World Club. To checking busses os teams for "drugs" to Visas being denied for no reason etc etc This country has a bad image anyway but this is insane!!! ICE needs to go away. Forever

Thank you for the tip on videos. I won't be at World cup but it helps to know it's best to send evidence to the ACLU
