Bad Bunny understood the assignment…
While not literally true, the collective imagination of the American people has made this symbolically true.
Bad Bunny likely wanted us to make that connection and ask that question. His performance was both an explicit and subtle rebuke of the way this administration has demonized immigrants.

No, that wasn't Liam Conejo Ramos in Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show
A publicist for Bad Bunny confirmed to NPR that the little boy in a blue bunny hat detained by ICE in Minneapolis last month did not participate in the Super Bowl halftime show.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

My law firm intervened in every case DOJ has filed to gain access to states' sensitive voting data. So far we have won several and lost none. But this is going to be a long fight for free and fair elections.

Blumenthal: ICE and CBP are out of control. The practices of this agency have to be completely overhauled. It’s like a corporation in bankruptcy—either dissolved or reorganized. They’re morally bankrupt, legally bankrupt, and politically bankrupt.

How did they redact abusers but not the victims? And they expect us to believe 40 nude photos went unnoticed?
That’s exactly why people think the DOJ did this on purpose, to shame these women for coming forward.

The thing that makes the most sense at the moment is that the President‘s organization overthrew Epstein with Netanyahu’s blessing and is now in control of that network. That’s how he can shake down the nation’s most prestigious institutions.
