Will Trump's Justice Department rescue Messi's Argentina?
The Trump administration's Justice Department is under scrutiny for investigating alleged corruption in Argentina's national soccer body through a Florida-based company, despite pausing enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act after returning to office. The FBI and prosecutors are probing TourProdEnter LLC, linked to the Argentine Football Association, which denies wrongdoing. Previous administrations faced criticism for using the law to pursue international soccer corruption cases.
