TPUSA vs Bad Bunny: Did the NFL Adopt
the Bud Light Strategy?
Posted By: Dreadnought, 2/10/2026 1:59:37 AM
Full disclosure: I did not watch the Bad Bunny halftime show. The hosts of the Super Bowl party I attended provided several televisions in multiple rooms, a couple of which ran the NBC feed at halftime, with the rest running the Turning Point USA YouTube show. No one bothered with the official halftime, but to be fair, not too many people paid much attention to either – or to the game itself. I did watch the alternative All-American Halftime Show on one of the TVs, the counterprogramming provided by TPUSA, and was very impressed with its production values.

Job growth was stronger than expected to start 2026, providing some relief to concerns about the state of the U.S. labor market.
Nonfarm payrolls increased by 130,000 for January, above the Dow Jones consensus estimate for 55,000, according to seasonally adjusted figures the Bureau of Labor Statistics released Wednesday. The total also was an improvement over December, which saw a gain of 48,000 after a slight downward revision. The unemployment rate edged lower to 4.3%, below the forecast to stay unchanged at 4.4% from the prior month. A more encompassing measure that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time positions for economic reasons slipped to 8%,
The Federal Aviation Administration abruptly grounded all flights in and out of El Paso International Airport in Texas for 10 days starting Wednesday morning, citing "special security" instructions, and then lifted the order hours later.
A Trump administration official said the Department of Defense disabled Mexican cartel drones that had breached U.S. airspace and that there was no threat to commercial air travel currently. "The temporary closure of airspace over El Paso has been lifted," the FAA said in a post on X. "There is no threat to commercial aviation. All flights will resume as normal."
A gunman killed seven people at a British Columbia secondary school on Tuesday, while another two people were found dead at a separate location, believed to be connected to the school shooting, police said. The attacks were carried out in Tumbler Ridge, a small city in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, on Tuesday afternoon, the Royal Mounted Canadian Police said in a statement.
The shooter was also found dead, apparently from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, the agency said.
Police went to Tumbler Ridge Secondary School about 1:20 p.m., where the shooter and six victims were found dead on arrival, the RMCP said. A seventh
Newly unsealed Department of Justice documents reveal that in July 2006, then businessman Donald Trump was one of the first to call police to warn them about sex predator Jeffrey Epstein.
The documents include a previously unreported 2019 FBI interview summary with former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter. Trump had contacted the department shortly after reports of Epstein's criminal sex investigation became public.
The future president contacted Reiter to express relief that authorities were finally acting, suggesting his associates in New York had described Epstein's behaviors as "disgusting," and advised investigators to focus on Ghislaine Maxwell, whom he described as "evil."
Numerous Democratic leaders say their high-migration, low-wage sanctuary city economies are crashing because President Donald Trump is requiring them to comply with national labor laws.
“We are now expected to absorb the fiscal consequences of [federal] enforcement activities,” the treasurers of 16 states wrote to President Trump. “This is not acceptable.”
The treasurers of Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, Minnesota, and nine other states are asking the federal government to exempt them from national laws that protect Americans’ civil rights, labor, housing, and anti-fraud laws.

President Donald Trump, in a call two decades ago to a Florida police chief, bashed his former friend Jeffrey Epstein and called Epstein’s procurer, Ghislaine Maxwell, “evil,” the now-retired cop recounted to FBI agents in 2019, according to a document released by the Department of Justice.
Trump called the then-Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter “to tell him ‘thank goodness you’ [are] stopping [Epstein], everyone has known he’s been doing this,” Reiter told the FBI in October 2019, according to the FBI document, known as a 302.
Reiter’s name is redacted from the 302. But the document identifies the interview subject as the person who had been Palm Beach’s police chief
Olympic athletes aren't stumbling into competition by accident; years of training, taxpayer-backed facilities, national governing bodies, corporate sponsors, and a county willing to invest all come together to push the select few onto the world's stage.
Displaying the flag on their uniform represents far more than any fashion choice or personal mood, yet every Olympic cycle seems to attract competitors who want the benefits without sharing the burden of gratitude.
U.S. freestyle skier Hunter Hess, a Team USA member, recently voiced his mixed emotions about representing America, citing immigration enforcement and political disagreements. He determined that the flag on his chest represents friends, family, and personal ideals over government
Two weeks ago, Jonathan Chait was one of many left-wingers who seemed to be declaring victory of ICE and President Trump. Here's a bit of what he was saying.
Trump’s retreat in Minneapolis is a stinging defeat for the national conservatives, the Republican Party’s most nakedly authoritarian faction...
Trump’s capitulation would never have occurred if not for the heroic, disciplined resistance in Minneapolis. Faced with something like an occupying army that was systematically flouting the law, the people of Minneapolis thrust its abuse into the public eye, raising the political cost of Miller’s war until enough Republicans decided that they couldn’t bear to pay it.
Communist Cuba's Last Year
10 replies
Signs that communist Cuba is on its last legs continue to pile up. Today Cuba announced that it is out of aviation fuel, meaning that international airliners who land there can't refuel anymore.
The Cuban government said international airlines can no longer refuel there due to fuel shortages after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on any country that supplies the communist country with oil.
The island nation’s leadership said Sunday that Cuba will run out of aviation fuel from Monday, likely disrupting airlines operating there, according to EFE news agency, citing two sources. The kerosene shortage is expected to persist for the next month, with all of Cuba’s international airports affected.

The Trump administration is set this week to overturn an Obama-era scientific finding that serves as the legal basis for federal greenhouse-gas regulation, the Environmental Protection Agency said on Monday. Repealing the so-called endangerment finding, a scientific determination that greenhouse gas emissions endanger human health, would remove the legal foundation for broader greenhouse gas regulation and would mark the Trump administration’s most wide-reaching climate policy rollback.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday that the repeal is expected to be published later this week, and cited EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin saying it would amount to “the largest act of deregulation in the history of the United States.”
Some news stories are an IQ test. That was my initial reaction to a recent report claiming DNI Tulsi Gabbard was covering up a damning "whistleblower" complaint involving foreign intelligence and the Trump White House. As usual, almost the entirety of the left and their allies in the mainstream press didn't manage to break 70.
To start, let's take a look at the original claim, as published by The Guardian on Saturday. Here was the wording before the paper amended it for "clarity," which we'll get to.
Last spring, the National Security Agency (NSA) flagged an unusual phone call between an individual associated with foreign intelligence and a person close

Representative Ilhan Omar is one of the most sanctimonious corrupt Democrats in congress, and she’s loud and proud about it because she understands how to engage in financial fraud safely. Just do what everyone else is doing but do it bigger, that way there’s no way her peers can approach it.
Someone in DC gave House Oversight Chairman James Comer the familiar tap on the shoulder and told him they don’t investigate their own Uniparty tribe. So, Comer drops his planned review of Omar’s corruption and shifts it to the ethics team.

Foreign-born Rep. Shri Thanedar openly threatened to prosecute his political enemies this week — a reminder of what Democrats plan to do if they get power back.
During a committee hearing Tuesday, Thanedar — struggling to speak English — threatened to prosecute Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott when President Donald Trump is out of office. (snip)
“You better hope you get pardoned because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year,” Thanedar threatened.
“Your agencies have lost the trust of the American people, with millions taking to the streets to protect the illegal actions of your agencies

Americans of all groups –– young and old, rich and middle-class, the college-educated and not –– are fleeing California.
Conservatives are leaving in droves.
The state will become even more progressive and even more committed to the self-destructive policies that are driving people out in the first place.
But this exodus might have a saving grace: It might make surrounding states more conservative, right?
Well, this has yet to play out favorably for Republicans in some nearby states, including, for example, Arizona.
What we know
The FBI released surveillance photos and videos of a potential subject in the investigation into the disappearance of “TODAY” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie’s mother.
The four images depict a person wearing gloves, a mask, and a backpack appearing to tamper with the camera at Guthrie’s front door the morning of her disappearance.
FBI Director Kash Patel said the potential subject is armed.
The FBI said yesterday that it had not identified any suspects or persons of interest.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was dropped off at her home outside Tucson, Arizona, the night of Jan. 31 and was reported missing about noon Feb. 1.

The FBI has "substantiated" some major irregularities in how votes were counted in Georgia's largest urban area in the aftermath of the 2020 election and is probing whether those failures were intentional efforts to violate federal election law, according to a bombshell affidavit unsealed by a federal court on Tuesday. FBI Special Agent Hugh Raymond Evans first filed the affidavit last month to establish probable cause for a raid that seized about 700 boxes of Georgia 2020 elections ballots from a storage warehouse [snip.]

American broadcast journalist and Today Show host, Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, has been missing from her Tucson, Arizona home after being last seen at midnight on January 31, 2026. (snip)Latest allegations against Annie Guthrie's husband included him having a "dark secret" involving millions of dollars in unpaid gambling debts, with some specifically citing a USD 50 million debt to a Mexican casino as a potential motive for kidnapping Nancy Guthrie. However, media outlets such as Hindustan Times refuted the claims, noting that they had not been verified by credible sources. The claims followed the surfacing of Tommaso Cioni's power of attorney and his bandmate, Dominic Evans,
Today must be my day for trashing Pravda. Already, I have trashed Peggy Noonan's lament for the Washington Post, and contrasted her fantastical idea of what the media's relationship to truth is with the fact that the Post lionizes Adam Schiff as a model Democrat who is trying to save democracy.
Noonan writes for The Wall Street Journal, so I trashed it. The Washington Post is the "gold standard" for political coverage, and I trashed them.
So next, I need to trash the New York Times to complete a trifecta.
Jamelle Bouie gives me that opportunity, as it happens. He is a columnist for the Times and has been called

Shortly after Nancy Guthrie disappeared, Pima County, Arizona, Sheriff Chris Nanos said that a camera affixed to her door had been disconnected, that she did not have a subscription that would have saved video and that investigators were trying to work with a tech company on the difficult forensic task of recovering any video. Against those odds, they were successful. More than a week after her reported disappearance, that video was revealed, marking the most significant public development in a case that has captured the nation.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore announced on Feb. 8 that he was uninvited from a dinner at the White House for the nation’s governors.
Moore wrote on his website that his exclusion undermined bipartisanship and was possibly racially motivated. “As the nation’s only black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight—whether that was the intent or not,” he said.
Other Democratic governors, such as Colorado’s Jared Polis and California’s Gavin Newsom, also reported being uninvited from the dinner.
When Stellantis last week announced it was writing down $26 billion, the CEO of the car company that now owns Chrysler, Antonio Filosa, said it was “part of a decisive process we started in 2025 to once again make our customers and their preferences our guiding star.”
Which begs the question: What was Stellantis’ guiding star before if not its own customers?
For that matter, who or what has been guiding General Motors (which announced a $7.6 billion writedown last month), Ford ($19.5 billion), and other automakers that’ve written down a total of $140 billion in just the past three years?
