The Far-Left Is Now Saying The Superbowl Halftime Show Was A Protest Of The “Kids In Cages” Policy (Video)

It’s the separation of children from their parents that the lefties are in an uproar about even though it was also happening under Obama at pretty much the same levels. Democrats basically invited people to assault our border and then got them arrested for the crime!

Only the really slow ones are still raging on about the cages since most of them have finally gotten the message that the pictures they were all upset about were taken during the Obama administration. That’s when they pivoted their fake outrage to the fact of the separation instead of the optics. Some liberal activists and journalists scrambled to delete tweets and social media posts incorrectly linking the Trump administration to an old photo of detained illegal-immigrant minors being held in a cage.

Now the liberals are trying to make the last night super bowl halftime show political yet again!

The far-left is now saying the Superbowl halftime show was a protest of the “kids in cages” policy.

Jennifer Lopez sang “Born in the U.S.A.” while wearing a Puerto Rican flag during her joint halftime performance with Shakira at the Super Bowl.

The moment came shortly after Lopez, whose parents are Puerto Rican, joined her daughter, Emme, in singing the 1984 hit by Bruce Springsteen while wearing the flag on stage. Moments later, dancers could be seen removing the flag, which also depicted the U.S. flag on the back, to hold it up as Lopez and Shakira performed another song.

Video: https://twitter.com/inLaurasWords/status/1224142058807595011?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1224142058807595011&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rightjournalism.com%2Fthe-far-left-is-now-saying-the-superbowl-halftime-show-was-a-protest-of-the-kids-in-cages-policy-video%2F

Many perceived the move as a political statement by Lopez, who has used her platform in the past to bring more attention to the treatment of Puerto Ricans and also to denounce the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy.

She and Shakira also drew attention over another part of the halftime show, which featured Lopez’s daughter and other children in what appeared to many on social media to be cages.

Democrats had no problem when Obama held children at the border. They don’t care what happened under Obama. They only want to rage because it’s Trump.

And, the truth is that the news kept quiet and didn’t report it. Now they put the blame on conservatives. Democrats are people with no morals.

Please share this article wherever you can. It is the only way we can work around their censorship and ensure people receive news about issues that Democrats and the mainstream media suppress.

Seems more like that is about human trafficking and sex workers at high roller events like the super bowl

Really? I thought the half-time show was a “salute to hispanic strippers.”

The halftime show was a hodgepodge, of patriotism, capitalism, and sex appeal. It finished with a pole dance and a burlesque show. Quite disappointing.

that’s funny, because i interpreted it as children in the womb need our protection... hmmm, that’s why they were singing born in the usa...

funny how it could’ve been misinterpreted.

They looked like Cinderella’s carriage.

Their political statement was lost on me.

If they have to come out the next day and explain what the political statement was supposed to be, doesn’t that mean the statement was not effective, the they screwed it up?

Sorry lefties, too distracted by JoLo’s ba-donk-a-donk to notice the Latino looking kids in the cages schtick.

We need to say that she and her fellow radical leftists were defending sex trafficking at the border and in the United States.

Obviously, their sexual objectification of women’s bodies and even children’s bodies was deigned to promote sex trafficking.

This is a common part of bringing children across the border as part of illegal immigration.

It was more a celebration of their retardation.

From Breitbart:

Pepsi/NFL Halftime Show: Latinx ‘Kids in Cages’ — Featuring J-Lo’s Daughter

🎵America-Bashing ‘Born in the USA’

Starting to see now why Jeb liked it so much.

That is what I thought as well

I like Latin beats so to be it was a good show, I didn’t really “watch it” but I listened to it and thought they did a good job, for a half time show, which usually sucks

Funny. I thought it was a pro-life message. The kids were in the womb singing “born in the USA.”
