  Social media users react to Joe Biden using the Arabic term to express hope over a probe in Trump tax controversy. Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden cast doubt during  Tuesday night’s debate  on whether US President Donald Trump would ever  release his tax returns . “You’ll get to see it,” Trump said repeatedly as moderator Chris Wallace pressed him to commit to a firm timeline. Biden retorted, “When? Inshallah?” While the Arabic language phrase translates to “God willing,” it also has colloquial connotations of ambiguous commitment. Biden earlier released his personal income taxes, which show the former vice president and his wife Jill Biden paid about 30 percent of their $985,000 gross personal income.

Image
  The Nations League is back: Here’s how UEFA’s latest international tournament works UEFA’s newest international football tournament is back for only the second time since it launched in 2018. The tournament largely replaced the international friendly matches, which were previously a fixture of the football calendar. But the tournament does carry some other significance: the 2018/19 iteration gave four teams the chance to qualify for Euro 2020, and the 2020-2021 fixtures provide the chance for two teams to enter play-offs for the next World Cup. What is the format? The UEFA Nations League consists initially of a league phase, with four leagues involved. Within three leagues there are four groups of four teams.
