Bad Bunny:"God Bless America"- Choosing Light Over Darkness, Joy Over Fear, Love Over Hate DHS runs out of money this Friday. Let's be very, very loud this week all and do everything we can to rein in ICE, together. Simon Rosenberg Feb 9 Morning all. With the words “The Only Thing More Powerful Than Hate Is Love” behind him, and the flags of all the countries of the Americas trailing behind, last night Bad Bunny yelled “God Bless America” and then sang the names of all the countries of the Americas (a region under siege right now). Here is that remarkable moment: And here is what his football said -   Together, We Are America : Here is Bad Bunny a few days ago after winning the top award at the Grammys - “ICE Out”: And here is the young boy Bad Bunny gave his Grammy to, with a photo of young Liam being apprehended by ICE.
