This is The Trending Now Report on Wood Radio. President Biden and former President Trump facing off on a CNN presidential debate. Last night. You now have the largest deficit in the history of our country under the sky. We have the largest deficit with China. He gets paid by China. He's a Manchuria candidate. He gets money from China. We have, so I think he's afraid to deal with them or something. President Biden missed not in order of questions yesterday. I've been devastated by you. Now you want a new tax cut of $5 trillion over the next 10 years, which is going to fundamentally bankrupt the country. You have the largest deficit of any president of American history. This guy hasn't fired anybody. He never fires. He should have fired every military man that was involved with that Afghan, the Afghanistan horror show, the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country. We were the only ones of consequence were not, were not members of the Paris Accord. How can we do anything? We've not able to, the United States can't get this under control. One of the largest producers in the world. Also, trending this morning, a jury in the U.S. District Court has ordered the NFL to pay almost $4.8 billion in damages after ruling the league violated antitrust laws and distributing out-of-market Sunday afternoon games on a premium subscription service. This may affect a lot of you. The jury also awarded $4.7 billion in damages to a residential class and $96 million in the commercial class. This is all over NFL's Sunday ticket. The lawsuit claimed the league broke antitrust laws by selling its package of Sunday games at an inflated price. Subscribers also say the league restricted competition by offering Sunday ticket only on a satellite provider. As for the NFL, they say they're going to appeal this verdict. It'll be something to keep an eye on. Oh boy, the amount of money that rolls around when you start to dig in these stories is incredible. It is. I mean, my Crikey. I don't know a lot about the specifics because I'm not that, you know, involved football fan. I don't have the ticket. I don't even know what the ticket is. But all I'm saying is, that's a lot of money. My Crikey. Yeah. Boy, howdy. Let's go to the other football for my trending segment. Did you see what happened last night? I watched most of this game kind of a devastating loss for the U.S. men's national team that was trying to grow in Copa, America after their World Cup appearance in 2022. And all they did was about 18 minutes in get a red card from Tim Wia. So they had to play a player down the rest of the time. I mean, you're talking 72 minutes plus in a game that they should have won against Panama. They end up losing two to one. And now they need a win over group favorite Uruguay in order to assure it advances. What did he do? Is it? Was it so egregious? Yeah, he basically kind of punched him, if you will. I mean, it was, it was an obvious red card. No one's denying the fact that he deserved a red card just lost his cool. You apologize to his team afterwards, but it's one of those things that, I mean, dude, call yourself a little bit because everyone, the coach and everyone had to kind of, you know, speak on his behalf. But I mean, you can't expect to win at that level when you're playing 11 10 for 72 minutes.
