Super Bowl LX
ICE Confirms Agents Will Be Deployed to Santa Clara
… Apparent F-U to Halftime Singer Bad Bunny
Published
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will be deployed to Super Bowl LX … the agency officially confirming to TMZ a threat made by a Trump advisor.
Here’s the deal … Corey Lewandowski recently made headlines when he blasted Bad Bunny being selected as the SB halftime performer … and he told right-wing commentator Benny Johnson ICE would be deployed for the event.
In a statement to TMZ, the agency backed up CL, saying … “There is no safe haven for violent criminal illegal aliens in the United States.”
The move is a reaction to Bad Bunny … after the Puerto Rican superstar said he doesn’t tour in the U.S. because he refuses to give ICE an opportunity to harass immigrants.
The Benny Show
Lewandowski — who is an adviser to Trump and worked with the prez on his 2016 and 2024 campaigns — told Johnson the White House was pissed about the halftime pick … and it was a “shameful” choice by the NFL … ’cause there were plenty of other bands who could’ve done the show.
And although it was not specified … it stands to reason agents would be on the scene for the full week of events around Santa Clara, California, and not solely the game itself … which would likely yield few-to-no results.
Lewandowski drove his point home, telling Benny … “That is a directive from the president. If you’re in this country illegally, do yourself a favor: go home.”
We reached out to Bad Bunny and the NFL for comment … so far, no word back.
