Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

A federal court has blocked Trump’s shutdown of America's biggest critical infrastructure project - which makes sense, since he's violating legal commitments the federal government made in good faith on my watch.

Today, construction on the nation’s largest infrastructure project came to a halt - with hundreds laid off - because Donald Trump is out of control.
The good news: political pressure still works, and we can use our voices to make sure he doesn’t have the last word.

Q: Bannon recently said 'we're gonna have ICE surround the polls come November.' Is that something the president is considering?
LEAVITT: I can't guarantee an ICE agent won't be around a polling location, but what I can tell you is I haven't heard the president discuss any formal plans

🚨BREAKING: The White House Thursday refused to rule out the presence of immigration enforcement at voting locations this November, a response that follows extremist rhetoric about placing federal forces at the polls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
White House ‘can’t guarantee’ ICE won’t be at polls
The federal government has historically recognized polling places as off-limits for immigration enforcement precisely to avoid deterring lawful voters.

Why do Republicans not care?
