Not the best time to have decimated your arts section and neutered your opinion page.
Analysis: Weeks before he set foot on the stage, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance had already become a media event.
But if you were looking for political commentary, the closest that you got was when he said “God bless America” in English.

Analysis | Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show was expected to provoke. Did it?
The Bad Bunny Super Bowl show nodded to injustices in Puerto Rico but mostly evoked wholesome family values that meshed with the more sentimental commercials.

At this point, it’s just better to accept that they want to be bad people. This is a choice.

He only values the safety of the agents. Everyone else is SOL.
REP. STEIL: Some Dems demands put at risk the safety of members of law enforcement
CNBC: You mean like taking off their masks and having a badge that shows who they are?
STEIL: Well, they're known to their supervisors
CNBC: No other law enforcement officials in the US are allowed to wear masks

When I worked for Reason magazine during Trump's rise to power in 2016, I was explicitly forbidden by the editor in chief from writing about Trump's racism, or the violence and racism at his rallies.
It was a "sideshow," I was told.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.
![YOUR RING CAMERA IS AN ICE AGENT
[a drawing of a ring camera with an ice agent dragging a person away in its field of vision]
"In October of 2025, Amazon's Ring announced its partnership with FLOCK, an A.I. surveillance group that freely shares its footage with ICE, the secret service, and the navy. Flock customers can use A.I. tools to sift through footage to assist in all manner of operations (like raids and deportations) without a warrant. Unplug Ring! Melt ICE! Protect your neighbors!

Remember when Lucious Fox told Bruce Wayne he was overstepping his bounds when he turned all of Gotham’s cell phones into a sonar?
So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh

It’s really pissing me off that within a 25 year period, American citizens are willingly participating in the surveillance state by putting cameras all over their homes and connecting them to the internet

You can guarantee that football will always have a strong sense of conservatism in its ranks. The places that typically produce the most football talent in America are similarly steeped in conservative Christianity and have a history of less than accepting outlooks on “outsiders.”

Whole performance was a statement. And a very clear one.
What’s blowing me is white folks were expecting Bad Bunny to come right out and say “F*ck Ice.” (Which he did a Sunday ago, by the way, at the Grammys)
Because of that, it “wasn’t political.” But that’s why there are Two Americas.

The entirety of their political plan can be summed up with that sentence. Well that and making sure the wealthy and the grifters get paid.

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”
