The Issue: Controversy surrounding Bad Bunny’s efficiency for the Super Bowl LX halftime show.
The halftime show for the Super Bowl was properly finished . . . in case you communicate Spanish, come from South America or are selling tourism to Puerto Rico (“Bunny left a Bad taste,” Feb. 10).

I didn’t hate the halftime show as a lot as most people did. I couldn’t perceive a phrase, however the manufacturing and dancing had been fairly entertaining.
As far as stunning political commentary goes, all the pieces he tried to say was summed up manner higher in “West Side Story.”

If Bad Bunny has some expertise, then maybe I missed it. He is, nonetheless, adroit at grabbing his crotch and “singing” inconsiderate and offensive lyrics.
This has nothing to do with him singing solely in Spanish. Had the likes of Luciano Pavarotti sung a quantity of Italian arias, or the Buena Vista Social Club sung some lovely Cuban bolero, no downside. But, Bad Bunny?
Looks like we’ve hit the nadir in our quest at dumbing down America.

Football is America’s No. 1 sport. English is America’s No. 1 language. Thus, it was neither logical or cheap that English was not the popular language during the halftime show.
Irrespective of the standard of the performances, it was an insult to the American people.

Most viewers had no comprehension of the lyrics and don’t share his view of the United States. The NFL ought to be ashamed.

The Super Bowl is a unifying occasion the place people can benefit from the sport free from the issues of the day. Despite this, the NFL selected an entertainer who introduced a lot of political baggage with him.
Some objected to the efficiency as a result of it was in Spanish, and that’s nonsense. I watched Pavarotti for many years and by no means understood a phrase he sang.

The Issue: President Trump setting a deadline for Russia and Ukraine to achieve a peace deal by June.
The deadline to achieve a peace deal has been prolonged but again, to June; at this charge, one wonders when it would occur (“WH wants elex-timed peace deal: Zel,” Feb. 8)?
It’s fairly sure by now that Vladimir Putin is taking full benefit of this and Volodymyr Zelensky retains asking for more help regardless of the loss of lives on each side. Who is successful, actually? I’d say: no one.

What we’re witnessing each day in Ukraine are conflict crimes dedicated by Russia which have solely elevated since President Trump took workplace.
If the world permits these crimes to go unpunished, what sort of future will all of us have?
It’s past time for Congress to stop the pointless delays and cross the laws needed to finish this conflict.

Judging from current occasions, Trump’s resounding bark has morphed into little or no chunk in curbing Putin’s prison conduct in Ukraine.
Methinks one thing has gone awfully awry right here and that there’s a disturbing purpose, unknown to the public, for the president’s failure to take more motion right here.
May God help the people of Ukraine, as a result of it seems ever more possible that we are going to not.
