Sun Herald readers weigh in on local and national topics.

Halftime show

The Bad Bunny halftime show was fine, I guess. I probably would have enjoyed it more with subtitles, though.

Kid Rock

Why didn’t X show the Turning Point USA halftime show? I’d like an explanation from Elon Musk or someone.

What a dud

We waited all football season for that dud of a Super Bowl?

Genius

President Trump says he will lower drug prices 500, 600 and even 1000 percent. This is a truly unbelievable savings. Especially given it is literally impossible to lower the cost of anything more than 100 percent.

Benghazi

Thirteen years ago in 2012, the U.S. embassy in Benghazi, Libya, was attacked by terrorists. Over the course of 13 hours a small contingent of U.S. State Department contract soldiers bravely defended the compound but in the end four Americans were killed, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens. President Obama’s Secretary of State Hillary Clinton infamously said “what difference does it make” when asked in a hearing about the cause of the deadly attack. Well, not only did it matter to most Americans, and never forgotten, but the cavalier attitude of Secretary Clinton was an atrocious affront. One of the leaders, if not the primary leader, was arrested overseas and extradited to the U.S. to face American justice. Perhaps the Obama and Biden administrations kept pursuing the individuals, but it could also be very doubtful. Within two years, the Trump 2.0 Administration completed the task.

Not fake

According to the only person in the world who has never done anything wrong in his whole life, Donald Trump will not apologize for the racist Obama post appearing on his social media page. He claims we have “fake outrage.” I can assure you, Mr. President, that my outrage is very, very real.

Epstein files

We’re still waiting. I’m beginning to think that we’ll need a new Congress to get answers.
