    Trump released a statement ahead of landing at the airport. He will be the first sitting president to attend two Daytona 500 races at Daytona International Speedway. He attended the race the first time in February 2020.

    “This iconic race showcases the fastest, most fearless drivers in motorsports, who represent our Nation’s love of tradition, competition, and automotive innovation,” the statement read. “The Daytona 500 brings together people from all walks of life—from lifelong racing fans to first-time spectators—they all join in celebrating a shared passion for speed, adrenaline, and the thrill of the race. 

    “From the roar of the engines on the track to the echo of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ soaring through the stands, the Daytona 500 is a timeless tribute to the speed, strength, and unyielding spirit that make America great. That spirit is what will fuel America’s Golden Age, and if we harness it, the future is truly ours.”

    Trump also thanked U.S. military members for their service.

    “Since the very beginning, NASCAR has carried forth a proud tradition of honoring our heroic Service members for their unwavering courage,” the statement added. “While fans from around the world gather today at Daytona International Speedway, we extend our unending gratitude to the selfless men and women in uniform who risk their lives to keep us safe. When the engines start or the checkered flag waves, and all 500 thrilling miles in between, our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, Coast Guardsmen, and Guardians stand ready to defend cherished traditions like this—and for that, we are truly thankful.

    “Melania and I send our best wishes for a safe and successful race. May God bless our Armed Forces, and may He continue to bless the United States of America.”

  • Taylor Swift hears loud boos at Super Bowl LIX after Trump gets raucous cheer

    Taylor Swift hears loud boos at Super Bowl LIX after Trump gets raucous cheer

    Taylor Swift isn’t on her “Eras Tour” anymore. 

    The pop star showed up to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans on Sunday, and the fans there gave her a loud chorus of boos when she was shown on the Caesars Superdome jumbotron.

    Swift didn’t look as if she was too familiar or comfortable being booed by a large crowd as her expression turned to visibly nervous confusion once the chorus began. 

    Swift is attending her second Super Bowl after showing up at last year’s big game in Las Vegas to cheer on her boyfriend and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Many NFL fans have come to be critical of the constant displaying of Swift during broadcasts and on jumbotrons dating back to last season. 

    Her booing by the crowd also coincided with a heavy barrage of boos that welcomed the Chiefs as a team when they ran through the tunnel prior to the game.

    Swift, as Kelce’s girlfriend, has quickly become an iconic figure within the Chiefs franchise. But Swift’s football roots are with the Eagles, as she grew up an Eagles fan in Pennsylvania. 

    Swift and her father abandoned this fandom when she started dating Kelce last season, so the crowd treated her accordingly in New Orleans. 

    And before Swift was booed relentlessly by the Superdome crowd, that same crowd gave a raucous cheer to President Donald Trump when he was shown on screen prior to the game.

    Trump was standing in between New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson and Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, during the national anthem, which also received a loud roar from the crowd before kickoff.

    Swift infamously endorsed former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election on Sept. 10. Days after Swift announced her endorsement, Trump sent a post on Truth Social that read “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” 

    The crowd in the Superdome on Sunday seems to be more aligned with Trump on that argument.
