Bad Bunny made the message clear.
The rest of the world made their message clear:
We can move on without Donald Trump.
We can move on without MAGA.
MAGA is not America.
MAGA and America are not the world.
Let their ideas rot in the last millennium.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.
It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

A White Rose
The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.
But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips

Wed 2/4 COTD is the sneaky, scheming, 7 of swords. There could be a fox near the hen house, a porch pirate in the neighborhood, or a clickbait scam in your email. Keep an eye on your wallet too. The cheaters will be out to cheat. The takers will be out to take. So don't take chances today.

yellow does not let anything get in its way.
