Billboard and Telemundo announced that global superstar Bad Bunny will be recognized as the Top Latin Artist of the 21st Century at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Awards.

Looking forward to his show at the Super Bowl!

#DiversityMakesAmericaGreat

About Bad Bunny: "His music transcends language. It's amazing what he's done. He did something that a lot of people have never done in their life, and I'm so excited for him. I was excited when he performed with us at the Super Bowl and I'm excited to see what he does. He puts on a great show, he's an amazing entertainer." * Jennifer Lopez

PM Carney owned the House!
PP tried to corner him on U.S. relations and the economy big mistake. Carney coolly reminded him “there is a thing called the private sector” while laying out Canada’s trade wins like a masterclass in leadership.

Zohran Mamdani didn’t hold back. His speech today on Letitia James’s indictment was 🔥 calling it exactly what it is: a political hit job meant to punish those who hold Trump accountable. “If justice can be weaponized against the just, then no one is safe.”

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

Dems have let rules and decorum dictate their non-action for years. And where has that gotten America? Things are worse every single day. Maybe a new strategy is in order? Hello?
