No, Rep Crockett, driving an 80,000-pound truck is not the same as driving a rental car

Jasmine Crockett during a House Judiciary Committee hearing, suggesting that English language proficiency is not necessary to safely operate a commercial motor vehicle. She equated

Why Bad Bunny’s polarizing Super Bowl halftime show felt like a slap at America

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show is officially behind us. Mercifully.
