There’s a lot of manual labor involved in putting together an event like that. What if many of those workers are afraid to show up?

features 'Bad Bunny," who's from Puerto Rico. Being brown in color, he'd count in ICE's "quota" established by TrumpCo.

All of the U.S. citizens detained (and maybe released?)? by ICE so far have counted in their quotas. There's no reason for them to not detained citizens then.

7. And Trump is using that as the reason he's "boycotting the Superbowl"

We all know the reason he isn't going is that a crowd that large booing him might damage the stadium, and his delusion that he is loved.

Axes to grind here:
- Cali
- 49ers (Kaep)
- Big Bunny
- The NFL

Can see a number of reasons he would want to disrupt this. Good luck - remove the masses' bread and circus at your own risk.

The games at SoFi are easily 40% people of color.

ICE could have 25k fans to abuse.
