Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, remains at the center of headlines this week following his explosive Super Bowl LX halftime show at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. According to The National Desk, controversy erupted as Republican lawmakers like Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee demanded a Congressional investigation into the NFL and NBC, labeling the performance inappropriate and pushing for FCC scrutiny over potential indecent language violations. Rep. Randy Fine of Florida echoed this in a letter to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, calling it vulgar, while Rep. Mark Alford noted ongoing probes into the lyrics. The New York Post's On The Money column reports the FCC reviewed the show, noting lyrics were censored to avoid references to sex acts and genitalia, and is shelving further action without new evidence. Ogles and Alford criticized it as an NFL bid to expand into Latin America over American patriotism.Musically, Business Insider details the epic setlist Bad Bunny delivered last Sunday, opening with hits like "Tití Me Preguntó" and "Yo Perreo Sola" from his albums Un Verano Sin Ti and YHLQMDLG. He mixed in tracks from his Grammy-winning 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, such as "Voy a Llevarte Pa PR," "Eoo," "Baile Inolvidable," "Nuevayol," "Café Con Ron," and "DTMF." Surprise guests included Lady Gaga for a salsa twist on "Die With a Smile," Ricky Martin on "Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii," plus cameos from Karol G, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, and Pedro Pascal. Other songs spanned "Safaera," "Party," "Monaco," and "El Apagón."Apple Music reports unprecedented buzz: listens spiked 7x post-show, with "DtMF," "BAILE INOLVIDABLE," and "Tití Me Preguntó" topping streams. The pre-show press conference shattered records with over 63 million views, and Shazam saw massive upticks, especially for "BAILE INOLVIDABLE" in the U.S. Spotify now hosts the live halftime single, keeping the momentum alive.Listeners, thank you for tuning in.

Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar known as Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is dominating headlines this week with buzz around his Super Bowl LX halftime show and award nominations. Fans are venting frustration on TikTok and Reddit over a strict height requirement for the field cast positions in his February 8 performance at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The Independent reports the original job ad from Backlit Support sought participants between 5'7” and 6'0” with a slender to athletic build, able to handle costumes up to 40 pounds for structured movements, not dancing. Shorter fans like one TikToker at 5'5” posted, “Like come on Benito, why you doing us shorties like that?” while another lamented being 5'3”.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has dominated headlines this week with a raw Instagram series calling for a safer, more honest music industry, reflecting on his child stardom scars from The National Desk and CBS Austin reports. The 31-year-old pop icon detailed feeling used and unprotected as a teen sensation, crediting Jesus for healing his anger and restoring his identity as a son, not a product, per Relevant Magazine on December 29. He insists hes not bitter or seeking revenge, but redemption, urging transformation over destruction without burning it all down. This poignant pivot, timed ahead of Christmas, underscores his biographical shift to faith-guided maturity amid family life with wife Hailey and 15-month-old son Jack Blues.Harpers Bazaar captured their cozy holiday vibes, with Justin posting family snaps of movie nights by the fire, twinkling trees, and Jack in festive Santa gear toddling onto a private jet, matching Haileys checkered pajamas. Echoing a rare December 18 West Hollywood date night at a Christmas tree installation, per E News via Spreaker, the Biebers savored low-key parenting joys.No fresh public appearances or social media mentions surface in the past few days, though his 2025 surprise albums Swag and Swag II, dropping over 40 R&B tracks like Yukon and Devotion, still buzz as career highs, The Honey POP notes. Hes confirmed for Coachella 2026 headlining but wary of grueling tours separating him from family, favoring spot dates after a Halloween Twitch confession. Older drama lingers unconfirmed, like April rumors of ditching Drew House for SKYLRK, but nothing verified recently. A Candlelight tribute to his hits lit up Miami on December 21, Listeso Music Group lists.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake has kept a low profile amid his ongoing Lyme disease battle, with RadarOnline reporting on December 9 that the singer is prioritizing his health after powering through his grueling two-year Forget Tomorrow world tour. Insiders say his wife Jessica Biel has been incredibly supportive, encouraging him to get checked when symptoms like nerve pain and extreme fatigue worsened, leading to the July diagnosis he shared transparently on Instagram, his last social media post this year. The New Zealand Herald echoes that Timberlake is doing okay, though the relentlessly debilitating condition has left him reclusive.Fan backlash lingers from recent tour videos, as AOL notes clips from shows in Transylvania, Romania, and Dublin, Ireland, showing lackluster performances where crowds sang hits like Cant Stop the Feeling while he seemed low-energy, sparking TikTok mockery with nearly 300,000 likes. No public appearances or new social media mentions have surfaced in the past few days.On the business front, Romania Insider announced Timberlake will headline the 2025 Electric Castle festival at Banffy Castle near Cluj-Napoca from July 16 to 20, his first-ever gig in Romania, promising timeless hits and tracks from Everything I Thought It Was. Meanwhile, Joey McIntyre of New Kids on the Block pitched a dream NSYNC-NKOTB-Backstreet Boys supergroup tour in interviews with The National Desk and others on December 12, urging Timberlake to say yes despite his health hurdles, even floating a boy band aid benefit or duets album. No response from Timberlake yet.Longer-term, AOL highlights his deep Memphis roots through philanthropy like Stax Music Academy support and past ventures including Grizzlies ownership and Sauza 901 tequila. Speculation swirls on a new album titled Everything I Thought It Was with Timbaland, but nothing confirmed recently. Timberlakes focus remains recovery, with fans hoping for a stronger return.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.According to People magazine, the most consequential Justin Timberlake development in the past few days is not a chart move or a casting coup but a diagnosis. After wrapping his grueling two year Forget Tomorrow World Tour, he revealed he has Lyme disease and, insiders say, is now prioritizing his health and recovery with strong support from wife Jessica Biel. People reports he endured nerve pain, extreme fatigue, and bouts of sickness on stage but pushed through to finish the tour, framing his disclosure as an attempt to be more transparent and to help others living with the disease. That health turn is likely to be a long term biographical marker: a global pop star hitting the brakes to protect his body and reframe his future.The ripple effect is already visible in the boy band nostalgia economy. In a new round of interviews carried by outlets such as The National Desk and multiple NBC affiliates, New Kids on the Blocks Joey McIntyre publicly floated an NKOTB NSYNC Backstreet Boys supergroup tour and more or less put the ball in Timberlakes court, joking that as an NSYNC fan he too has felt teased by reunion hints and saying he hopes Justin finally says yes. McIntyre also acknowledged on the record that any mega tour would be a heavy lift given Timberlakes recent health challenges, effectively tying Justin's medical reality to the fan fantasy of a boy band Avengers style comeback.On social media, the dominant narrative remains concern and admiration rather than scandal: posts and clips continue to circulate of Timberlake addressing his Lyme diagnosis after the final tour stop, with fans framing him as a work through the pain professional finally drawing a boundary.There are scattered fan speculations that his health news could delay or reshape any future NSYNC projects or solo residencies, but no major outlet has confirmed concrete new deals, dates, or album announcements in the last few days; those whispers should be treated as unconfirmed. For now, the headline on Justin Timberlake is simple and stark: the man who once brought sexy back is bringing balance back, and the next chapter of his career will be written around what his body, not just his fanbase, can live with.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Depuis son retour à la Maison-Blanche fin janvier 2025, le président américain Donald Trump clame haut et fort son intention de mettre fin à la guerre entre l'Ukraine et la Russie. Il veut stopper les dépenses américaines en soutien à l'Ukraine qu'il juge trop lourdes. Des dépenses destinées à combattre les troupes russes qui ont envahi le territoire ukrainien en février 2022 et en occupent aujourd'hui 20%. Le 12 février 2025, Donald Trump annonçait s'être entretenu directement avec le président russe Vladimir Poutine sans Volodymyr Zelensky, le président ukrainien, actant ainsi un changement radical dans la position américaine sur le conflit. Le vendredi 28 février, alors que Zelensky et Trump devaient sceller un accord économique à la Maison-Blanche, le président ukrainien a subi, face aux caméras du monde entier, une véritable séance d'intimidation de la part de Donald Trump et du vice-président américain JD Vance. Dans cet épisode de Code Source, Romain Korda, journaliste au service international et Charles de Saint Sauveur, chef du service, reviennent sur la stratégie d'affaiblissement de Volodymyr Zelensky par Donald Trump.Écoutez Code source sur toutes les plates-formes audio : Apple Podcast (iPhone, iPad), Amazon Music, Podcast Addict ou Castbox, Deezer, Spotify.Crédits.

As he stepped into a Manhattan courthouse on a frosty Monday, Donald J. Trump, our beloved 45th president, didn't hold back his criticism of New York's hush-money lawsuit against him. He minced no words in calling the case a blatant 'political witch hunt' coordinated by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and none other than President Joseph R. Biden himself. 'What's unfolding here is nothing short of a broader attack on our great nation. Such circumstances are entirely unprecedented. Legal experts far and wide agree that this frivolous lawsuit is an anomaly, a case without any solid grounding.' Trump's frustrations with this case are felt and echoed by many across the nation -- even by those who don't consistently align with his beliefs. Take, for instance, the esteemed constitutional scholar Alan Dershowitz, who isn't known to lean to the right politically. During an interview with National Desk in March, Dershowitz said, 'This appears to be a clear-cut case of targeting and politicizing the justice system, certainly not the American way. To say it's a disappointing day for justice would be an understatement. Frankly, without seeing the indictment, I cannot make certain judgments, but based on what we've gathered about this case so far, it appears to be one of the weakest I've ever encountered in over half a decade of experience.' As per reports from Fox News, Trump is facing an unprecedented 34 charges related to falsifying business records -- accusations that are all built on a seemingly inventive legal premise, as suggested by ABC News. Trump, not one to back down easily, further stressed, 'This isn't just a persecution, it's a political witch hunt unlike any we've seen before. It's a case that shouldn't have seen the light of day.' 'This is an unashamed assault on our great nation, and that's why I stand tall and proud today. This isn't just an attack against me, it's a distressing indictment of our failing country. It's a country fought over by a clueless man who is, unfortunately, deeply embroiled in this case. This seems nothing less than a strike on a political rival, and that's the crux of the matter. So, it is with great honor I stand before you today; I thank you all.' Thankfully, the principles of America's legal system are strong in face of these trials. Trump's command and influence make him a robust contender for the 2024 presidency. Based on the polling averages from Real Clear Politics, Trump has consistently been outperforming Biden in recent nationwide polls. Contrary to popular belief, Republican presidential candidates can still triumph in the election, even without winning the popular vote – reminiscent of the victories in 2000 and 2016. As we look to the future, the possibilities for Republicans in 2024 seem boundless, particularly if they effectively deliver their agenda and pointedly challenge the Biden administration's 'America Last' policies. The course of our beloved nation's future may very well hinge on these developments. It calls for rallying around a plan that rings true with the American spirit. Our focus should be on the 'American Dream' – protecting life, ensuring liberty, and nurturing the pursuit of happiness for all citizens, wholeheartedly.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of OP Talks, sociologist Rev. Dr. Tony Lin talks to New York Times National Correspondent Edgar Sandoval about his start in journalism, writing about Texas, and the nuances of the U.S. Latino experience. In particular, Sandoval discusses his experience of reporting on the mass shooting that occurred on May 24, 2022 at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Sandoval was born in California and spent part of his childhood in his parents' Mexican home state of Zacatecas, before settling in South Texas. While still in college, Sandoval got his start in journalism at The McAllen Monitor, his hometown newspaper, where his first job was writing obituaries. After graduation, he worked newsroom jobs that took him to California, Pennsylvania, Florida, and New York. He spent almost three years writing about the assimilation of Latino immigrants in Pennsylvania; the articles are anthologized in The New Face of Small-Town America: Snapshots of Latino Life in Allentown, Pennsylvania (Pennsylvania State University Press, 2010), which captures "vivid portraits of the people and families behind the demographic statistics." In New York, Sandoval worked for the New York Daily News for a decade before joining The New York Times in 2019, where he is now a National Correspondent based in Texas. Coming full circle, he currently writes about South Texas people and places for the NYT's National Desk.

Five presidents from both political parties oversaw the two decade debacle in Afghanistan that ended in the national humiliation at the end of August 2021 at the airport in Kabul where we retreated under fire following a negotiated surrender - leaving up to a thousand Americans behind and untold thousands of Afghan nationals who fought with us to their fate as the Taliban returned to the power we took from them in 2001.People in the executive branch, Department of Defense, Department of State, Congress, media, and the well credentialed chatterati said they were "shocked," "surprised," and otherwise unprepared for what unfolded. Should they have been, or was this the inevitable outcome warned of in official government lessons learned and historical interviews dating from the beginning of the conflict?Our guest for the full hour this Sunday will be Craig Whitlock, and we will be using his book “The Afghanistan Papers: A Secret History of the War” (Simon & Schuster, 2021) as a starting point for our conversation.Craig has been a staff writer for The Washington Post since 1998. He is assigned to the Investigative Desk, where he specializes in national security.At The Post, he's covered the Pentagon beat for the National Desk from 2010 until 2016.

While overseas, his primary assignment was investigative reporting into terrorism networks and counterterrorism policy in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia. He has reported from more than 60 countries.

Journalist, writer, editor Frances Stead Sellers returned to share new insights. Leaders like Henrietta Fore, UNICEF, struggle with “incredible added burdens” dealing with crises in childhood education and disrupted immunizations while “vaccinating the world” against Covid-19 with Gavi. “Imagine being Henrietta Fore. .. The strains on the organization are enormous.” Francis Collins, head of NIH, faces similar expansive responsibilities, and uses his own voice “as a person of faith” to address vaccine hesitancy. The Washington Post Live series, one-on-one conversations, creates a new “intimacy” where guests are more reflective. Over and over during the pandemic, journalists face the “We don’t know” quandary of scientific uncertainty. “We keep getting ahead of ourselves.” That requires laying out what different experts believe, a form of “service journalism”. Vaccine hesitancy among Republican men is a “new phenomenon,” very “distressing,” that reflects our immense national divisions. People want to hear from their friends, from trusted individuals. It is important for people’s “barber to be seen getting vaccinated.” Her personal hope for the future? “I desperately want to return to real-life meetings… Nothing beats face-to-face meetings.” Frances Stead Sellers is a Senior Writer and Reporter on the National Desk at the Washington Post.

Speakers Theresa Braine (Moderator) Breaking News, National Desk, New York Daily News Matt Brown (Speaker) The Associated Press Ron Cohen (Speaker) Emeritus Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Colorado School of Mines Dan Elliott (Speaker) Associated Press Dina Gilio-Whitaker (Speaker) Lecturer, American Indian Studies, California State University San Marcos Description In August 2015, three million gallons of contaminated mining wastewater broke through a plug of rock and debris at the mouth of an entrance to the defunct Gold King Mine outside Silverton, Colorado, while EPA subcontractors were examining it for remediation purposes. The heavy-metals-laden water cascaded into a creek feeding the Animus River, turning it lurid orange, and from there gushed into the San Juan, which flows through several states and Native American nations, including the Navajo Nation. This is just one of thousands of abandoned mines in the Western United States leaking contaminated water, many of them Superfund sites. This panel will use the Gold King Mine spill to illustrate the scope of the problem and give tips on how to mine Superfund documents and archives for crucial environmental stories.

Under the current administration, U.S.-Mexico border polices have dominated headlines, becoming both the symbol and testing ground of hardline immigration policy. Family separation, the deaths of children in immigration custody, and the detention of men, women, and children in unsafe, overcrowded conditions have stirred national concern. The asylum system alone has been hamstrung by “metering” that slows entry to a trickle, enormous court backlogs, the wholesale return to Mexico of asylum applicants awaiting their court appearances, and policies that attempt to force applicants to first seek protection in other countries. This panel explores what these policies have meant to asylum seekers and the communities that straddle the 2,000-mile-long line. Topics include family separation, Remain in Mexico, the wall, state and local work, and more. The panelists also considered whether the administration is achieving results with its efforts to reshape overall enforcement, the responses from local border communities, and related litigation. Speakers include: Dylan Corbett, Founding Director, Hope Border Institute Sue Kenney-Pfalzer, Director Border and Asylum Network, HIAS Joel Rose, Correspondent, National Desk, National Public Radio Anna Gallagher, Executive Director, Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc.
