The Taliban Endorses Donald Trump For President
There’s a long list of questionable individuals that Donald Trump has endorsed but there’s an even longer list of peculiar people, organizations and overall entities that have co-signed the president themselves. The latest to do so is The Taliban. The militant group shared their public support for Donald Trump in hopes that he keeps his promise to withdraw American troops in Afghanistan.
A spokesperson for the Taliban, Zabihullah Mujahi, told CBS News of their hopes for another four years of Trump, saying, “We hope he will win the election and wind up U.S. military presence in Afghanistan.” American’s had troops in Afghanistan for nearly 20 years and Trump’s made the promise to pull them out of there.
A Taliban senior leader also explained how the group was rooting for Donald Trump to pull through after he was diagnosed with COVID-19 next week. “When we heard about Trump being COVID-19 positive, we got worried for his health, but seems he is getting better,” the senior member said. “Trump might be ridiculous for the rest of the world, but he is sane and wise man for the Taliban.”
There’s an irony that Trump, the leader of the Republican party, would receive the support of the Taliban. However, The Trump campaign’s communications director, Tim Murtaugh, slammed the Taliban, rejecting their support. Murtaugh added that the Taliban should be fully aware that Donald Trump will do anything to protect Americans.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump made his first public appearance today following his hospitalization last week. Trump held a rally of sorts for his supports from the balcony of the White House, even though he hasn’t confirmed whether he’s tested negative.

PLAN-A-EMCEE unveils a call to see clearly with latest release “Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain”
PLAN-A-EMCEE‘s latest release, “Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain,” is a lo-fi hip hop and cloud rap album with a waking-up theme. This one is for those stuck in an NPC-like life, moving toward awakening and ready to challenge their environment. The infectious hook is hard to miss, and delivers the song’s main message, “unmask the blindfold, that you might see!”
The track concept is simple and focused, produced by and rapped by Emcee PLAN-A-EMCEE, aka Anwar. The combination creates a direct relationship between the beat and the vocals, keeping the message front and center. The busy musical approach lets the words do the heavy lifting over the cold lo-fi base.
“Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain” is a musical reminder to pause, look closer, and be more aware of your surroundings. PLAN-A-EMCEE turns that idea into a memorable hip-hop statement, with an infectious refrain and an undeniably purposeful edge.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Just Swept The Emmys
Bad Bunny is officially an Emmy winner — and not just once. At Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmys, his Super Bowl LX Halftime Show swept every single category it was nominated in, all seven of them, making it the most-decorated nominee of the night.
The headline win was Outstanding Variety Special (Live), a category the show became only the third halftime show ever to claim. From there it just kept going: music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction and camerawork, and directing all went home with the Puerto Rican star’s team. There’s technically an eighth trophy with his name attached, too, though it won’t land in his hands — the “Saturday Night Live” episode he hosted last season separately won Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Program.
The sweep is good news for Jay-Z as well. As an executive producer on the halftime show, he now has two Emmys to his name, having previously won for producing Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX performance in 2025 — the show that, until Saturday, held the record for most Emmys won by a Super Bowl performance.
Bad Bunny wasn’t the only one having a night. Sabrina Carpenter picked up her first Emmy as a performer and executive producer on “The Muppet Show,” edging out Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour | The Final Show” for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded). The Billy Joel HBO miniseries “And So It Goes” won for sound mixing on a nonfiction program, and 50 Cent’s Diddy documentary “Sean Combs: The Reckoning” took home picture editing honors. A big weekend for live spectacle, all around.
