Bad Bunny Slams Donald Trump's Immigration Policies In NUEVAYoL Video
Bad Bunny has made headlines after he dropped a music video for his single NUEVAYoL on July 4. Since its release, the music video has become the talk of the town for criticising US President Donald Trump and his immigration policies. The video further featured a cameo from a voice that sounds like Trump, asking for forgiveness.
The song is a part of the Puerto Rican singer's latest album, Debi Tirar Mas Fotos. Directed by Renell Medrano, the retro-style video began with Bad Bunny attending a classic quinceañera, complete with a nervous teenage honoree, dancing chamberlains, and a host of family members. As the music video continued to play, fans began to see a few sharp political messages.
One of the shots from the video shows Bad Bunny saluting from the crown of the Statue of Liberty, which was draped in a Puerto Rican flag. This shot was followed by a group of men sitting around a 1970s-style radio listening to a voice that resonated with President Trump, only the words were nothing like his usual speeches. 'I made a mistake," the voice began. 'I want to apologise to the immigrants in America. I mean the United States. I know America is the whole continent." The voice further went on to accept that the United States is nothing without its immigrants. 'I want to say that the country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, and Cubans," the voice continued before a man shut it down.
The video ends with images of the Puerto Rican diaspora in New York, some in black and white, keeping with the retro feel. Before ending, the video shows a simple message that says, 'Juntos somos más fuertes," which means 'Together we are stronger." Bad Bunny dropped the music video after a week of the US administration's continued escalation of anti-immigration policies.
In recent years, Bad Bunny has been using his platform to send more and more powerful political messages. Previously, when comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage during a Trump rally at Madison Square Garden, Bad Bunny released an eight-minute video titled Garbage and celebrated his homeland.

"It's That Face, Those Lips": Trump's Praise For White House Secretary Sparks Row
US President Donald Trump offered high praise for his White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, commenting on her "face" and "lips." "She's become a star," Trump said during a recent interview. "It's that face. It's that brain. It's those lips, the way they move. They move like she's a machine gun." "She's a star. She's a great person, actually. But she's - I don't think anybody has ever had a better press secretary than Karoline. She's been amazing." ???????????? TRUMP ON KAROLINE LEAVITT: IT'S THE WAY SHE MOVES THOSE LIPS... SHE'S A STAR "She's become a star. It's that face, it's that brain, it's those lips, the way they move... like she's a machine gun. She's a star, and she's great. I don't think anybody has ever had a… — Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal) August 2, 2025 The clip soon went viral. A user commented on X, "Big Monica Lewinsky vibes." This supposedly refers to the infamous 1990s scandal involving former President Bill Clinton and then-White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Another wrote, "Trump has probably used this same line on more than one occasion to attract underage girls for sexual gratification at his beauty pageants, the Mar-a-Lago Club spa, on Jeffrey Epstein's jet, etc..." "He's a creepy old man. He doesn't even understand what he just said. Major yikes," someone said. Someone wrote, "And people still doubt he's in those Epstein files." Karoline Leavitt, 27, is Trump's fifth press secretary overall and the first of his second term in office. The exchange came after Leavitt commended the president during a White House press briefing on Thursday, saying he deserved international recognition. "President Trump has brokered, on average, about one peace deal or ceasefire per month during his six months in office," she said. "It's well past time that President Trump was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize." Trump continues to face scrutiny over his past relationship with Epstein. Controversy has intensified after the FBI and Department of Justice declined to release further Epstein-related documents, with Trump's name reportedly redacted before publication. Trump has defended the decision and denied any attempt to suppress information. He has also said that he distanced himself from Epstein years ago after the convicted sex offender allegedly tried to "poach" Mar-a-Lago staff, including Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein's most prominent accusers.

Trump Spotted Selling Kulfi In Pakistan? The Truth Behind The Viral Video
A kulfi seller from Pakistan who resembles Donald Trump has gone viral for his unique style and look. US President Donald Trump has recently made headlines for claiming that America and Pakistan are working together to develop a 'huge oil reserve." Upset over India's ties with Russia, he even said that the two countries might join forces to sell oil to India. While Trump was making these bold political claims, a different 'Trump" was going viral in Pakistan—this one selling kulfi, not oil. Who Is Pakistan's 'Trump'? Saleem Bagga, a kulfi and kheer vendor from Sahiwal in Punjab, Pakistan. What makes him an internet sensation isn't just his delicious desserts but his striking resemblance to Donald Trump. From his golden hair to his mannerisms, Saleem has earned the nickname 'Pakistan's Trump." But there's a deeper story behind his look. Saleem lives with albinism, a genetic condition that affects the skin and hair, giving him his signature pale appearance and light hair—features that unintentionally make him look like the US President. More Than Just a Look-Alike Some people call him 'Pakistan's Donald Trump," while others admire his unique way of engaging customers. Saleem's videos have gone viral on social media, and he admits he never expected such fame. 'I was just selling kulfi," he says, 'but people really liked what I do." Saleem Bagga doesn't just serve kulfi—he sings while doing it. In one YouTube video, he shares that he has loved singing religious songs and popular tunes since childhood. Whether it's women, kids, or the elderly, his musical kulfi-selling style attracts everyone. Trump after realising there was no oil in Pakistan..😂 — Cabinet Minister, Ministry of Memes,🇮🇳 (@memenist_) August 1, 2025 He's a huge fan of Pakistani singing legend Noor Jehan, and he dreams of performing with her if given the chance. He also admires singer Sahir Ali Bagga. Family Man With A Sense of Humour Saleem is married and has children, but with a cheeky smile, he jokes, 'If a good offer comes along, I might consider a second marriage." Trump Look-Alikes Are A Trend Interestingly, Saleem isn't the only famous Trump look-alike. Mike Osman, a British comedian, rose to fame in 2016 for his perfect impersonation of Trump. At one point, Osman thought of dropping the act, but Trump's election victory turned his fortunes around. He now calls himself the UK's No. 1 Trump impersonator, with over 16 million views on TikTok. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
