it makes me genuinely happy to imagine people watching kid rock's weird neck folds vibrate as he croaks out "my name is roooooooooooooooooooooooob.......rob RITCHIE" and thinking this is where the *real* half time show is, this right here is what america is all about
Based on the summary from @patfinnerty.bsky.social, the only things people missed from the TPUSA 'show' was a low quality electric guitar Star Spangled Banner, a blatantly out of tune fiddle, and Kid Rock now goes by Rob Ritchie. I also think he's a year out from dropping a Christian rock album.

if your “common sense” allows for the continued existence of a wildly overfunded squad of armed 4chan racists that exists specifically to harm people then your sense is only in common with fascists and should be completely disregarded by actually sensible people
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
