Hello again.
We’re currently in Clemson, South Carolina. I’ve decided to come back here to document the final part of our road trip.
The main reason I deactivated my account two weeks ago was that things became increasingly toxic. For some people, it’s unfortunately unfathomable that a good story can exist without some kind of hidden agenda behind it. There was even a Reddit group going through my entire account trying to find anything they could use to reveal my identity.
I know this was only a small percentage of people, but after a while it became exhausting. During the last two weeks, I received so many kind messages on Instagram, and they really made me realize how many people genuinely enjoyed following the trip. Some people even told me that their grandparents regularly ask them, “What are the Germans up to today?” I think that’s really cool.
I decided to continue because I realized that the overwhelming majority of people loved following along. A small group of very loud people shouldn’t be able to ruin something that brought so many others joy.
I also want to clear something up, as people who follow me on Instagram already know.
I’ve been to the United States before. This is not my first visit, and I’ve never claimed that it was. The last time I was here was in January 2022, when I visited New York and Philadelphia.
A lot of people shared my Raising Cane’s post from November 2025 to make it look like I was secretly American. That post wasn’t from the United States, it was from my trip to Saudi Arabia.
This is my first time back in the U.S. in more than four years, and apart from Boston, I’d never visited any of the places we’ve been to on this trip before. That’s probably why many people assumed it was our first time in America, because for all of these places, it actually was.
And let me tell you, Ohio and Alabama are very different from New York City or Los Angeles.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks for reading.
The EU has blocked a chat control skeptics talk on YouTube.
But here’s the thing, the content is in Finnish, and Finnish law allows for this exact thing.
So the EU is currently illegally blocking free press in Finland.
YouTube has just taken down the political discussion clip about the EU's Chat Control, and the video is no longer viewable in the EU.
This has been confirmed by several parties. The video is still available outside the EU.

OK get your tinfoil ready.
Graham inspected a drone factory in Ukraine yesterday. Russia blew up that facility today. Then, tonight, it is announced that Graham is dead from a "sudden illness". No more details
I'd say there is a decent chance that Russia blew up Lindsey Graham.

The warmonger was shown a "secret" drone manufacturing facility in Kiev.
Well, this facility no longer exists after strikes by the Russian MoD. Without warning, 6
YouTube has just taken down the political discussion clip about the EU's Chat Control, and the video is no longer viewable in the EU.
This has been confirmed by several parties. The video is still available outside the EU.
@puheenaihefi podcast is a Finnish current affairs program with 60k subscribers. In this episode, Peter Sund, CEO of the Finnish Information Security Cluster (Kyberala ry) offered pointed criticism of the EU's new Chat Control directive, which was enacted under questionable circumstances.
Because the media is in Finnish, it is highly likely the censorship request came from a Finnish government official or a related party.
This makes it troublesome.
Because the Finnish constitution §12 guarantees freedom of expression.
Preventing political publications is a criminal offence: Abuse of Official Position, punishable by a fine or imprisonment for up to two years.

Resumen del segmento del periodista Román Molina sobre la corrupción de la FIFA y la AFA 🇦🇷🤯
1️⃣ La FIFA, según Molina, brindó protección a la AFA a pesar de casos relacionados con lavado de dinero y malversación, además de investigaciones estadounidenses que superan los 300 millones de dólares.
2️⃣ La FIFA absolvió al entrenador de las categorías juveniles femeninas, Diego Guacci, de acusaciones de acoso y maltrato a jugadoras menores de edad, alegando falta de pruebas suficientes.
3️⃣ A pesar de la solicitud de las jugadoras de garantizar la confidencialidad de sus identidades antes de declarar, la FIFA reveló los nombres de todas las denunciantes, lo que Molina considera una grave violación de su protección.
4️⃣ La AFA, según él, estaba al tanto de las acusaciones contra Diego Guacci desde el principio, y sin embargo no tomó ninguna medida en su contra, permitiendo que continuara trabajando con las categorías inferiores.
5️⃣ Las jugadoras describieron internamente a la AFA como similar a una "mafia", afirmando que temían reportar por miedo a represalias.
6️⃣ Solo 9 días antes de la victoria de Argentina en el Mundial 2022, la AFA otorgó todos sus derechos comerciales internacionales a una empresa recién fundada en Miami sin experiencia en fútbol.
7️⃣ La FIFA transfirió directamente los fondos de premios a esa empresa privada, en lugar de enviarlos a las cuentas de la AFA.
8️⃣ La empresa recibió una comisión fija del 30% de todos los ingresos externos de la AFA, una tasa que Molina describe como ilógica e inédita.
9️⃣ Los fondos provenientes de la FIFA, Adidas, patrocinadores y derechos de transmisión se distribuyeron a través de varios bancos estadounidenses y luego se transfirieron a otras compañías interconectadas para ocultar a los beneficiarios reales.
🔟 Las investigaciones revelaron transferencias de millones de dólares a empresas fantasma, algunas propiedad de personas comunes que estaban en quiebra, endeudadas o vivían en viviendas sociales.
1️⃣1️⃣ Después de recibir estas transferencias, estas personas desaparecieron de sus ciudades, cambiaron sus números de teléfono, mientras los vecinos notaban un cambio repentino en su estilo de vida y riqueza.
1️⃣2️⃣ Parte de los fondos, según Molina, se usaron para comprar propiedades de lujo, aviones privados, yates e incluso financiar actividades no relacionadas con el fútbol, como autos de karting.
1️⃣3️⃣ La justicia también sospecha que funcionarios de la AFA se beneficiaron personalmente de estos fondos, incluyendo un palacio de lujo registrado a nombre de otras personas.
1️⃣4️⃣ Los fondos generados por el éxito de la selección argentina también se usaron para ayudar en la adquisición del club italiano Perugia a través de una red de empresas interconectadas en varios países.
1️⃣6️⃣ El contrato con la empresa de Miami no fue temporal, sino que se extendió hasta 2030, con la aprobación completa del Comité Ejecutivo de la AFA.
1️⃣7️⃣ Molina considera que la FIFA ignoró las irregularidades financieras a pesar de ser la entidad responsable de auditar anualmente las cuentas de la AFA.
1️⃣8️⃣ Molina acusa al director legal de la FIFA, Emilio García, de tener lazos estrechos con funcionarios de la AFA, y se pregunta sobre el impacto en el curso de las investigaciones.
1️⃣9️⃣ Los periodistas que revelaron estos expedientes sufrieron amenazas, campañas de difamación y la revocación de algunas credenciales de prensa, en un intento por silenciarlos.
2️⃣0️⃣ Molina concluye que el problema no se limita a la AFA, sino que se extiende a la propia FIFA, considerando que el sistema permitió la continuación de la corrupción y la protección de los implicados en lugar de responsabilizarlos.
🚨 BREAKING! 🤯
More than €42m of the €300m Argentina received after winning the 2022 World Cup was diverted to shell companies. 🇦🇷
A contract signed just 9 days BEFORE Argentina's World Cup win vs France reportedly gave 30% of the AFA's World Cup revenue to a company called TourProdEnter.
FIFA then allegedly transferred the World Cup funds directly to that company, which reportedly has NO links to football.
ℹ️ @Romain_Molina
Je vous prépare une très grosse enquête sur la mafia du football argentin demain matin 🇦🇷
Probablement l'un des plus gros scandales couverts par la FIFA ces dernières années d'ailleurs

The referee tells me it’s a penalty, so I got prepared. Then, he comes and tells me it may NOT be a penalty.
I lost my focus, I’ve NEVER been in a situation like this before.” @IliesPeeters
Chat Control 1 is back. Despite the European Parliament voting down the legislation twice this year, the Council of the European Union and parts of the Parliament today managed – through an urgent procedure – to extend it for another two years. The law was originally introduced as temporary legislation, so that its effectiveness could be evaluated. At the end of 2025, the European Commission itself concluded that it was not possible to determine whether the law had any measurable effect. Even so, it has now been pushed through.
Some of today's amendments could have stopped the law. And a majority of the voting MEPs wanted to do so. By a margin of 314-276, the Parliament voted to reject the proposal through these amendments. However, since it was an urgent procedure, 361 votes were required. As a result, the majority lost today and Chat Control 1 was passed. The urgent procedure was a dirty play by the Council and parts of the Parliament – it’s a procedure not meant to be used on legislation already rejected by the Parliament.
For now, Chat Control 1 will remain in effect. This means that tech companies may continue scanning communications without a warrant or suspicion.
However, the real battle is Chat Control 2. Unlike Chat Control 1, it would require all providers to scan communications, and to do so far more extensively than Chat Control 1 ever has.

On the other side of the road, though: alive and kicking.
Hallo @tagesschau@ZDFheute: Dass ihr nicht kritisch, sondern einfach gar nicht zur CHATKONTROLLE berichtet, ist auch ein Statement.
Erzählt mir nix mehr von wegen Demokratie und so. Es ist bodenlos.
CHAT CONTROL IS COMING
Even though most Members of the European Parliament have voted to REJECT Chat Control, we have not been able to reach the absolute majority that was needed (361 Members).
This is a sad day for Europeans.
