Finally switched from Google – and I’m never going back I’ve effectively switched from Google Search to Kagi Search, and I absolutely love it. After trying the $10/month plan, I moved to the $5/month Basic plan and have been using it happily for two months now. The Firefox extension makes the experience seamless: it works perfectly in private windows without requiring me to log in, and the instant page summary feature is incredibly useful. The extension is open source, lightweight, and just does what it says without any bloat or tracking. If you’re tired of algorithm-driven, ad-cluttered search results and want a clean, fast, privacy-respecting alternative, Kagi is worth every cent. Five stars without hesitation.

Balogun received a straight red card after a VAR review in the United States’ 2-0 Round of 32 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Wednesday for a challenge on Tarik Muharemović, a decision that normally triggers a one-game suspension under FIFA rules. President Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino after the match and asked FIFA to review the red card, according to people familiar with the call, cited by AP, CBS News, AFP, and other outlets. FIFA cited Article 27 of its disciplinary code but gave no detailed explanation for delaying the ban; Trump thanked FIFA on Truth Social for “reversing a great injustice” The Royal Belgian Football Association said it was “astonished” and was examining “all potential options” to protect participating teams’ rights and fair play before the Belgium match. Belgium coach Rudi Garcia criticized the timing of the decision at a news conference, while U.S. Soccer said it accepted the disciplinary committee’s decision and was focused on the Seattle match
