ICE's Presence at 2026 Super Bowl Sparks Debate Amid Bad Bunny's Halftime Show
The 2026 Super Bowl is set to have a notable presence from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as announced by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Meanwhile, Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny will take the stage for the halftime show, despite expressing concerns about ICE at his concerts.
Noem has doubled down on the decision, stating that ICE will enforce the law at the event. This move was first hinted at by Corey Lewandowski, former campaign manager for Donald Trump. Bad Bunny, however, has raised concerns about ICE's presence at his concerts in the U.S., leading him to suspend his U.S. tour dates. He encourages Latinos and Puerto Ricans to attend his concerts in Puerto Rico or other countries instead.
Noem has also stated that only law-abiding Americans should attend the Super Bowl, sparking debate about the implications of ICE's involvement in the event.
The 2026 Super Bowl promises to be a high-profile event with Bad Bunny's halftime performance, but the presence of ICE has raised concerns and sparked discussions about immigration and law enforcement. Fans are encouraged to stay informed about the developments surrounding the event.
