There’s quite a bit of chatter among conservatives regarding Bad Bunny’s performance at the Super Bowl, but maybe the focus should be on another act. Green Day is set to take the stage before the big game and recently made headlines at a pregame event in San Francisco, where they delivered a forceful message against ICE agents.
During their performance, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong was quite outspoken, urging ICE agents to “quit your shitty job.” His words resonated with the audience, and it’s possible this message might take some people by surprise.
He remarked, “Because when this is over – and it will be – Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, J.D. Vance, Donald Trump, they’re going to kick you out like a bad habit. Come on over.” It’s a bold statement, for sure. Armstrong also indicated that the show “will take place in Minneapolis” amid ongoing protests, alluding to the tragic shootings of Renee Goode and Alex Preti. Interestingly, he changed the lyrics of one of their songs, tweaking the mention of “California’s representative” to “Epstein’s Island representative.”
Armstrong hasn’t minced words about political figures before. He’s drawn comparisons between Trump and Hitler and even altered a line from “American Idiot” during recent performances. Instead of saying he’s against the “redneck agenda,” he now highlights that he’s not part of the “MAGA agenda.”
On another note, President Trump has voiced criticism regarding the halftime performers. He called their selection “terrible,” emphasizing that it promotes “hatred” and doesn’t sit well with him.
Bad Bunny, who has also faced scrutiny from Trump, mentioned that he decided to do a residency in his hometown of Puerto Rico, skipping U.S. dates out of fear that fans might face detention by ICE agents. It’s a tough situation, really. I mean, who would want their fans to be in that kind of predicament, even for a concert?
