Kari Lake swung back into the culture fight this week on Newsmax’s Chris Salcedo program, taking aim at both the political theater in Washington and the latest example of the entertainment industry’s drift from mainstream America. Lake didn’t mince words about where she stands — defending parents, defending decency, and calling out public institutions that use taxpayer money to push a radical agenda. Her straight-talking, no-nonsense approach is exactly what millions of Americans are craving when the media and the elites keep pretending the status quo is fine.
When the topic turned to the NFL’s choice of halftime entertainment, Lake made it clear she won’t be tuning in to celebrate a spectacle she views as designed to provoke conservatives rather than unite the country. The outrage is hardly isolated — many on the right see the booking as yet another example of top-tier institutions rewarding performers who parade gender-bending aesthetics and anti-American postures in front of a national audience. This isn’t about policing private lives; it’s about whether the biggest night in American sports should be turned into an activist stage that leaves hardworking, patriotic families feeling alienated.
Bad Bunny’s selection has lit a match under an already combustible culture war because he has openly questioned American immigration enforcement and previously avoided mainland U.S. dates out of safety concerns — comments conservatives say show a lack of respect for American institutions. That background explains why so many Americans are furious: the NFL picked a headline act who has publicly signaled distance from the mainland and taken shots at the very agencies and laws that protect our country. If the halftime show is supposed to celebrate America, why keep booking acts that treat it like a target?
The broader point is simple and brutal: the NFL, like Hollywood and many big corporations, has decided that alienating half the country is an acceptable cost for chasing a cultural narrative. That’s why conservative leaders and commentators — from talk-radio hosts to elected officials — are calling for accountability and, in some cases, boycotts. When institutions stop listening to mainstream America, they deserve the chorus of pushback they’re getting; the marketplace of attention must be allowed to punish those who prioritize woke signaling over unity and respect for the flag.
Lake didn’t stop at culture; she also weighed in on the real pain a government shutdown inflicts on American families and workers, and rightly framed the fight as one of fiscal sanity and priorities. While Democrats posture about virtue, millions of Americans feel the sting of furloughed paychecks and stalled services — and leaders like Lake are demanding a return to common-sense budgeting that serves citizens, not special interests. The contrast couldn’t be starker: some in Washington want headline-grabbing culture wars while ordinary people pay the bill for their political grandstanding.
Patriots should take Lake’s message to heart: defend your living room, defend your children’s innocence, and refuse to be lectured by elites who mock the values that built this country. Turn off the programming that disrespects your values, vote with your time and dollars, and hold institutions accountable at the ballot box and in the market. If conservatives stand firm and refuse to be silenced or sidelined, we can reclaim our culture and restore an America that honors faith, family, and freedom.
