There have been four referendums on this since 2010. Statehood has won comfortably every single one of them. It’s a joke that people pretend there’s ambiguity here, and malpractice that this hasn’t been pushed for by dems every chance possible.

To reject the US as a fundamentally American country with a deep shared history and commonality with the rest of the Americas, including that Spanish has long been our de facto national second language, is on a deep level anti-American. It's hating actual American culture and history and tradition.

7 punts, 47.9 average yardage
3 downed inside the 6-yard line
Only two returned, for four total yards
Multiple good holds on bad kicking snaps

Puerto Rico hasn't had reliable power in a decade.
The grid sends occasional surges through the wires that fry appliances.
Electricity rates are among the highest in the entire U.S.
Heat waves are getting intense in the summer, and outages mean A/C is no guarantee for an aging population.

That was a real wedding during Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show. His reps confirmed the happy couple are irl in love. And yet, conservatives still said the show was an affront to American values.
