                                                       Bad Bunny and Donald Trump  Former President Donald Trump sharply criticized Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance, calling it “a slap in the face” to the United States. In a post-game reaction, Trump argued that the Spanish-language performance failed to represent American culture and claimed it was inappropriate for a national event watched by millions of families. His comments quickly ignited debate, with supporters echoing concerns about cultural representation and critics accusing him of dismissing the diversity that defines modern American entertainment.

US holiday retail sales grow 3.1%, down from prior year -Mastercard



US retail sales rose 3.1% between Nov. 1 and Dec. 24, rounding up a majority of the holiday sales for retailers, as shoppers looked for last-minute Christmas deals amid big promotions, a Mastercard report showed on Tuesday.

The increase is lower than the 3.7% growth Mastercard forecast in September, and has slumped from last year’s 7.6% as higher interest rates and inflation pressured consumer spending. Sales in the apparel and restaurant categories rose 2.4% and 7.8%, respectively, during the holiday shopping period, according to the Mastercard Spending Pulse report, while sales of electronics fell 0.4%.

Ecommerce sales grew at a slower pace of 6.3% from last year’s 10.6% as the popularity of online shopping came off pandemic highs, the report showed.
