Turning Point USA did the unthinkable.

With all things considered, Turning Point USA had a great showing for their Halftime performance.

The conservative advocacy group founded by Charlie Kirk was hailed a “massive success” for its alternative Super Bowl halftime show. A YouTube livestream of the TPUSA halftime show, headlined by Kid Rock, had over 20 million views.

TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet suggested the number could reach 50 million for the event. It took place during rapper Bad Bunny’s Spanish performance at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

“I can tell you that’s a shot across the bow. People are paying attention,” Kolvet told Fox News. “And, you know, if you give us a year to plan this thing—I’m really excited to see what we can pull off.”

Turning Point had everything working against them, including not being able to stream live on X. It turns out that the show may not have been live after all.

A YouTube livestream of the TPUSA halftime show does not appear to be actually live.

Variety reported that “there was no indication of where the performances were being broadcast from, or if they were taking place in real time.” According to their sources, the show was pre-taped in Atlanta.

Will this be the case going forward? They have already stated that a Halftime show will be back in 2027.

Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett performed. The show was broadcast on Turning Point’s YouTube Channel and on the Christian network, TBN. The “All-American Halftime Show” drew as many as 6.1 million concurrent viewers.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
