Executive Director of the White House Task Force for the FIFA World Cup 2026, Andrew Giuliani, joins the morning show to talk about being appointed by President Trump to oversee operations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup across 16 host cities in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, with 48 teams, about 91 days away. He says the job has become harder amid an Iran conflict and because the Department of Homeland Security is shut down, affecting TSA capacity, cybersecurity readiness, and planning for millions of additional summer travelers, including events tied to America’s 250th birthday. Giuliani warns of massive cyber threats, noting the last World Cup saw over 15 billion thwarted cyberattacks and that organizers expect nearly double. The conversation also covers NIL and transfer rules in college sports, arguing football and men’s basketball drive revenue while unchecked payments and free agency threaten Olympic and women’s sports, and that congressional action is needed.
