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. #MAGA #ICEOUT #BadBunny #Trump

Bro, Kid Rock was lip syncing his whole performance lmao it's insane just how much of a talentless hack this scumbag really is. His music is fucking awful, he can't sing, rap or write good songs to save his life. Genuinely one of the worst artists of the 90s.

So the Orange lame duck hated the #BenitoBowl2026. Guess what? Most enjoyed it. But what surprised me was that he watched it. I thought hed tune into the racist alternative with all those has-beens alongside Kid Rock #TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

Why is the right bitching about #BadBunny at the #Super Bowl? I mean, they had many non-US citizens performing there and Bunny is a citizen. Is it because they’re too dumb to notice that fact?

Trump has imposed a 50% tariff on products from Brazil because he disagrees with the #Bolsonaro prosecution. I think #Lula should retaliate and impose a 100% tariff on US products because the US has no business meddling with that country’s judicial system
