Soccer, go!
Good morning! I’m here on a Wednesday because Donald is hopefully willing the USMNT to victory tonight. Speaking of the USMNT…
Weston McKennie was apparently dismissed from the USMNT camp for two violations of the Covid protocols, including bringing an “unauthorized person” into the bubble.

#DCU has announced a COVID-19 vaccination policy internally for its employees, I’m told.

And finally, speaking of Covid, D.C. United will mandate the vaccine for all employees. Good!
That’s all I have, what’s up?
