Turning Point USA
Launches Rival Super Bowl Halftime Show Amid Bad Bunny Backlash and Hoax Flyer Fiasco
Turning Point USA announced an 'All American Halftime Show' on October 9, 2025, to counter Bad Bunny's selection as Super Bowl LX headliner in San Francisco on February 2026, featuring potential performers like Kid Rock and Jason Aldean to promote faith, family, and freedom. The initiative responds to conservative criticisms of Bad Bunny, including a resurfaced video of him seated during 'God Bless America' at a baseball game. A viral hoax flyer promising a
'guest appearance from Measles' fooled several right-wing influencers, leading to widespread online ridicule and discussions on media literacy.

I made print copies of my book a fundraiser to raise awareness of food sovereignty/security issues in the North, but the PDF is free if you want to download + donate directly to QCFC + other orgs.

The unspoken meaning of regular "If this gets leaked we're cooked lololol" jokes is to remind everyone that they're in a position to coerce or destroy anyone who gets out of line.

Yell In a War @jelenawoehr.bsky.social · 8h

the chat logs leaked clearly show members are aware they’re posting compromising messages, they’re even talking about how cooked they be if it leaked

bc the social function of extremist rhetoric is that in-group members bond and attain status by transgressing with one another as witnesses

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

First sentence says it all: "Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed legislation that would have required data centers to report how much water they use." Read the rest of the story though. from @ianjames.bsky.social: www.latimes.com/environment/...

California cracks down on water theft but spares data centers from disclosing how much they use

Gov. Newsom vetoed a bill that would have required data centers to report their projected water use when applying for a business license.

i think it should be extremely easy to get a job. what do you really risk just throwing me in the mix and seeing what happens? a few dollars in wages, maybe a few more in the unemployment fund? we both know you have the money. I’M the one who doesn’t have the money! because i’m asking you for a job!

This is a sidebar but this is a form of manufactured consent of a more broader variety.

What is happening here is that elites enjoy finding everyday actions of the peons (you and me) that we insist a right to enjoy and, instead of taking a serious account of fault, find basis to ridicule.

Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:

The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight

Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.
