Trump adviser warns of ICE crackdown at Bad Bunny Super Bowl: ‘We will find you, deport you’
SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA: Federal authorities have signaled that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents could be present at the 2026 Super Bowl.
Corey Lewandowski, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) adviser, shared that enforcement efforts will not exclude Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny's show in the search for immigrants.
He stated bluntly, “We will find you."
Corey Lewandowski's warning to immigrants during Bad Bunny's Super Bowl
On 'The Benny Show,' host Benny Johnson asked Corey Lewandowski whether https://news.meaww.com/illegal-alien-arrested-by-ice-found-registered-active-democrat-voter-in-marylandwould be present at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara during Bad Bunny’s halftime performance.
Lewandowski delivered a stark response: “Benny, there is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people who are in this country illegally, not the Super Bowl and nowhere else."
“We will find you. We’ll apprehend you. We will put you in a detention facility. And we will deport you. So, know that that is a very real situation under this administration, which is completely contrary to how it used to be," he continued.
He didn’t stop there. He also criticized the NFL’s choice of halftime performer, saying, “The NFL has been so woke for so many years.”
“I used to love watching NFL games,” he continued. “And when sports got into wokeness, I stopped doing it. Now, I still participate in the fantasy football league with some of the guys that I’ve known for 25 years and, you know, want my players to win.
“But it’s so shameful that they’ve decided to pick somebody who just seems to hate America so much to represent them at the halftime [show],” he shared.
“I don’t care if it’s a concert for Johnny Smith or Bad Bunny or anybody else. We’re going to do enforcement everywhere. We are going to make Americans safe. That is a directive from the president.
If you’re in this country illegally, do yourself a favor: go home,” Lewandowski said.
Bad Bunny addresses ICE raids ahead of 2026 Super Bowl halftime
The NFL has announced that Bad Bunny will headline the halftime show at the 2026 Super Bowl. Super Bowl LX is scheduled for February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
The rapper, who mostly performs in Spanish, has reportedly avoided touring in the United States due to concerns that ICE raids could target fans at his concerts.
“What I’m feeling goes beyond myself,” Bad Bunny said. "It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown … this is for my people, my culture and our history," he shared.

The Puerto Rican rapper and singer announced the Super Bowl news with a promo video captioned: “Super Bowl LX. Bay Area. February 2026.” Reports say the backlash began after Bad Bunny spoke out against US immigration raids and criticized President Donald Trump.
