Halftime is shaping up to be one of the most bruising periods in the next Super Bowl. After the NFL announced that Bad Bunny would do the show, there is a petition in opposition signed by tens of thousands and TPUSA is planning an alternative halftime show to pull away viewers...
...For NBC, a major boycott could freak advertisers who are paying a premium for spots around halftime. It is an interesting boycott tactic to pull away viewers to hit the bottom line for the network. What remains to be seen is whether the controversy will draw or deter viewers.
...The move against the NFL on TPUSA, americanhalftimeshow.com, and online petitions, change.org/p/replace-bad-…. Some are pushing to replace Bad Bunny with George Strait...
...One would think that the NFL and NBC had to know that Bad Bunny would be controversial given his political statements. The question is whether a boycott can succeed in getting viewers to turn off from the Super Bowl during halftime.

Here is the indictment. d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net/static/2025/10…
...The indictment recounts numerous alleged incidents of transmitting classified information to third parties as opposed to the removal of actual documents. Notably, Count 6 is described as the revelation of “intelligence concerning a foreign country’s interactions with an adversary; in quotation marks direct statement collected via intelligence source and methods on a foreign country.” This was allegedly Top secret information. It allegedly included foreign intelligence describing an adversary’s planned attack on a facility.”
...Count 9 is described as Av2 “reveals intelligence about future attack by adversarial group in another country.” It is rated at Top Secret/SI. Count 11 “reveals intelligence that a foreign adversary was planning a missile launch in the future.” Others concern covert programs by the U.S...

John Bolton is now reportedly indicted by a Maryland grand jury. The sealed indictment is believed to be based on his possession of classified documents...
...Fox is reporting 18 counts against Bolton.
Obviously, Maryland is a favorable jury pool, and Bolton may be comforted by the assignment of an Obama appointee as the judge. However, those can be superficial takes. Possession and mishandling claims can be viewed by jurors as cut-and-dry questions...

Larry Snelling, Chicago Police Superintendent, just denied the story on the failure of CPD to assist ICE agents. He states that CPD officers were present. However, there are also recordings of CPD orders not to go to the scene. The question is whether there was a delay in one or more of the calls...
...Those orders told officers to "stay put." There is also a recorded message that “Per the chief of patrol: Clear everybody out, we’re not responding over there." This comes down to the timeline. If these officers were told to stay put, the question is why and for how long...
...The calls indicated that federal officers were in peril. The usual response from law enforcement is overwhelming and immediate. Snelling insists that there are multiple calls that are being conflated. That is a fair point, but the question still remains these recorded calls...

The rising political violence reportedly escalated further today with the reported shooting Charlie Kirk, the executive director of Turning Point USA (TPUSA). We have been discussing attacks on TPUSA for years on campuses...jonathanturley.org/2025/04/04/lef…
Reports remain sketchy, but Fox is indeed reporting that Kirk was shot... foxnews.com/video/56146159…

There are reports that the New York appellate court has tossed out the absurd civil judgment against Donald Trump. If true, it is great news for the New York court system in regaining some of the credibility lost during this litigation...
...Notably, both AG Letitia James and Judge Arthur Engoron did their level best to effectively block an appeal by demanding a ridiculous bond. jonathanturley.org/2024/02/21/not…
...Judges Dianne T. Renwick and Peter H. Moulton wrote that "the court’s disgorgement order, which directs that defendants pay nearly half a billion dollars to the State of New York, is an excessive fine that violates the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution.” Bravo

Rep. Jason Crow just went on Fox Sunday and insisted that the lack of Russian collusion is nothing new since members knew about it for years. That is a particularly telling and franking damning statement since figures like Adam Schiff were out spreading the false collusion claims
...Now Sen. Schiff even insisted that he had evidence of collusion after the allegation was rejected by the Special Counsel -- evidence that he never produced and does not appear to exist. jonathanturley.org/2025/07/27/the…
...The mantra in the media and the Democratic Party that there is nothing to see here is predictable but hardly credible.
