Trump advisor suggests ICE could be present at Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium
"There is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people who are in this country illegally, not the Super Bowl and nowhere else, Corey Lewandowski told right-wing commentator Benny Johnson on an episode of The Benny Show this week. We will find you, we will apprehend you, we will put you in a detention facility and we will deport you. Lewandowski served as campaign manager for President Donald Trump in 2016 and is now an advisor to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem."
"His comments come just days after Bad Bunny was announced as the Super Bowl halftime show performer. The Puerto Rico-born singer kicks off his worldwide tour for his album DeBI TiRAR MaS FOToS next month. The tour, however, doesn't have any U.S. stops, which the King of Latin Trap said was due to concerns about his fans potentially being targeted by ICE."
Corey Lewandowski, a longtime Trump advisor and current advisor to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, asserted that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents would be present at Super Bowl LX and that undocumented attendees would be located, detained, and deported. The remark followed the announcement of Bad Bunny as the halftime performer; the Puerto Rico-born singer plans a worldwide tour with no U.S. stops, citing concerns that fans could be targeted by ICE. Conservatives and commentators criticized the NFL's choice, calling it divisive. Santa Clara officials emphasized public safety and stated that immigration enforcement falls outside the city's authority.
