People love a World Cup victory, don’t they (provided they’re on the right side)? After USA thrashed a Japan side who forgot how to defend set pieces to clinch their third Women’s Word Cup title, America’s great and good shared their joy, exuberance and pride for their delightful title-winning team. Here’s a selection of the best Twitter had to offer:

Obama says: come on over, Carli

Michelle cheers for U-S-A x 3


Joe Biden is all: football’s coming home

The US soccer federation has a little idea

We've got an idea for a new $10 & $1 @federalreserve. How about the best Women's Player and Goalkeeper in the World.

True to form, DDG right away tries to carpetbag this rare honor for US women's soccer perhaps taking a page from SWC Bush's Olympics stunts:

As an honorable sports leader who is known to care about welfare of children, Carli Lloyd should either refuse invite to visit WH or make it conditional to disgraced (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?433586-Majority-of-Americans-now-believe-Obama-is-quot-dishonest-and-untrustworthy) DGP's master publicly apologizing to parents/families of all children killed by USTF drone attacks and facing war crimes/dronegangstaism trials in independent jurisdictions where judges cannot be intimidated the way Miriam Carey's lawyer was (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?430954-Lawyer-representing-family-of-Miriam-Carey-arrested&).

So we don't have to spread our best players around, but can concentrate them all in one squad. And win.

59% of whites and only 8% of Blacks disapprove of the job DGP is doing by this poll.. what explains such a huge gulf in disapproval between these two demographics?

In other recent news:

Rudy Giuliani Wants Barack Obama to Be More Like Bill Cosby
http://time.com/3744139/rudy-giuliani-barack-obama-bill-cosby/

Which in his defense was before the quaaludes admission news.

Cosby admitted he obtained quaaludes to drug young women
A judge has unsealed a 2005 deposition in which the comedian Bill Cosby, who has now been accused of sexual misconduct by over two dozen women, admitted to procuring illegal sedatives to give to young women he wanted to have sex with.

"United States"

But not only that, only one US women soccer team is being short changed.

Victorious U.S. Women's Soccer Team Paid 40 Times Less Than Male Counterparts (http://www.people.com/article/womens-national-soccer-team-pay-less-than-men)

The US women's soccer team after their win on June 30
07/07/2015 AT 01:40 AM EDT

The U.S. Women's National Team scored what may well be its most high-profile victory ever (http://www.people.com/article/womens-soccer-world-cup-final-highlights-video) on Sunday, and more sports fans than ever have been given good reason to follow women's soccer.

However, in the wake of the team's big win over Japan, one article pointing out the disparity between how female and male athletes are paid has gone viral – and for good reason, too. Many people might be surprised to know that the champion women's team makes about 40 times less than the U.S. men's soccer team.

An op-ed on Politico (http://www.politico.eu/article/world-cup-women-pay-gap-gender-equality/) points out that the 2014 World Cup winners received $575 million (http://prosoccertalk.nbcsports.com/2014/07/10/world-cup-winners-to-receive-35-million-in-prize-money-what-did-the-us-get/) in prize money, while the second-place team received $25 million.

For winning the Women's World Cup, however, the American team will receive $15 million (http://www.tsmplay.com/football/women-world-cup-2015-prize-money/) – just a hair more than one-40th of the $575 million that their male counterparts made.
