FIFA officials have always been accused of bribery, kickbacks and corruption. So what? It's not an American sport anyway. Everybody knows international bodies invite graft. Especially after Russia and Qatar were awarded the World Cup. FIFA held their own investigation and cleared themselves. What's to know? They're not even Americans.
Why is the U.S. even involved?
Because the cabal planned their crimes in the United States. They used United States banking system and they are growing the American market and simultaneously targeting it.

The arrests came after a three year investigation. The FBI concentrated on Chuck Blazer, the American growing fat on his efforts of encouraging soccer in America becoming mainstream sport. Literally grew fat, taking on the appearance of Santa Clause, so fat that he can no longer walk. He is described as having a fleet of runabouts to ferry him from buffet to buffet in New York. His lavish lifestyle includes two apartments at Trump Towers with views of Central Park, one of them for his cats. He flies private jets all over the place. He spent 29 million on his FIFA card and he is 11 million dollars behind on his U.S. taxes. He simply failed to pay taxes for years in a row.
The Australian has more juicy details on his lifestyle and his downfall.

Thanks for the heads up Chip.
I know next to nothing about the sport.
The full stadiums over there are sort of captivating to me. 100,00 people chanting and carrying on can do that. I suppose.
As long as it makes Hillary look bad, who cares?
This administration tried to get the super bowl of soccer to be played here. They sent their best man, Eric Holder to get the bid. They didn't get it, and now it's pay back time.
