Super Bowl Sunday: Here are some of the political, social commercials you can expect during the big game
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
One of the most anticipated parts of Super Bowl Sunday is not necessarily the game, it’s the commercials throughout the big game.
Hundreds-of-millions in advertising revenue will hit the airwaves Sunday night, but not everyone is trying to get you to buy something. Viewers can expect to see anti-hate ads, ads that focus on Christianity, and ads supporting political candidates that want viewers to buy in to their political views.
A 30-second spot during this year’s game costs around $8 to $10 million.

1. Pro-Trump group commercial touting Trump Accounts
A pro-Trump nonprofit, Invest America, bought time during the pre-game broadcast to promote the president’s new tax-free «Trump Accounts,» which were established in the GOP’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act as tax-free savings accounts for American children, many of which will be seeded with $1,000 from the federal government. Children will be able to use the funds from these accounts for things like education expenses, or down payments on a new home.
The ad will feature children talking about the importance of investing.
«It’s gonna get a lot of attention. All your viewers, watch the Super Bowl right after the national anthem, we’re gonna have a big rollout,» Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said last month on a local Midwest radio station.
2. Another anti-hate ad from Robert Kraft
New England Patriots’ owner Robert Kraft’s nonprofit the Blue Square Alliance, which was formerly called the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, will have another advertisement this year against antisemitism. His group has been buying ad spots at the Super Bowl since at least 2022 to promote anti-Jewish hate messages. Last year, the group’s ad featured appearances from celebrities like Snoop Dogg and Tom Brady.
This year’s advertisement will focus on antisemitism among younger people, particularly those in schools. The ad encourages supporters to post an image of a blank blue square, resembling a sticky note, to illustrate their support against Jewish hate.
3. Michigan gubernatorial candidate’s «anti-halftime» ad
A Republican candidate running to be Michigan’s next governor, Perry Johnson, has been sponsoring ads running from several days before the game up until Sunday evening, according to the candidate’s campaign. The advertisement, which will only be seen in select Michigan TV markets, urges folks to turn the channel during the Bad Bunny halftime show and tune into the halftime show being produced by the late-Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA (TPUSA). Bad Bunny’s selection by the NFL has created a political stir, with critics calling him anti-American.

4. Senate candidates’ campaign ads
Viewers in Maine and Texas will see advertising from the political campaigns of incumbent Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Democrat challenger to U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, James Talarico, who is a state senator in Texas.
Collins’ campaign ad was purchased on her behalf by One Nation, a nonprofit tied to the Senate Leadership Fund, the top super PAC for Senate Republicans. They are coughing up about $5.5 million for a several-months-long ad buy planned to focus on the Maine viewing market.

According to the local Portland Press, her 30-second ad features stock clips of firefighters while discussing Collins’ efforts to pass legislation banning «forever chemicals» linked to cancer. «Call Senator Collins and thank her for protecting Maine’s first responders,» a narrator concludes the advertisement, according to a version reportedly shared on YouTube.
Talarico, who reportedly spent more than $100,000 from his campaign to air his ad, according to local reports, shared his advertisement on social media. Talarico focuses on slamming billionaires and ethics, particularly related to campaign finance and congressional stock trading.

«Millionaires don’t just influence politicians, they own them. That’s why I don’t take corporate PAC money. That’s why I fought to cap campaign contributions,» Talarico says in his ad. «In the Senate I’ll ban billionaires from making unlimited, secret donations. I’ll stop members of Congress from trading stocks. And I’ll raise taxes on those at the top to fund tax cuts for the rest of us.»
5. He Gets Us ad
The pro-Christian ad campaign that launched in 2022 with help from the family behind Hobby Lobby has been criticized over the years as its commercials have become a talking point following past Super Bowls. The campaign’s ads have typically focused on social conflicts and it plans to unveil yet another ad during this year’s game.
This year’s message touches on wealth, image, insecurity, digital addiction, fame and other pressures in life, rather than social conflicts, similar to ads they have done during past Super Bowls, according to pre-releases of the ad ahead of the game.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The American flag flew again over the U.S. Embassy in Venezuela on Saturday, marking the first time it has been raised in the South American country in seven years.
The embassy compound in Caracas is still undergoing renovations, and officials have not announced when the building will fully reopen, The Associated Press reported.
The flag’s return comes months after former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was captured by U.S. forces in January.

The U.S. Embassy highlighted the moment in a social media post, calling it the start of a new chapter in relations between Washington and Caracas.
«A new era for U.S.-Venezuela relations has begun,» the U.S. Embassy wrote on X.
Some residents expressed hope that the flag signals improved ties with the international community.
Caracas resident Alessandro Di Benedetto said the atmosphere among onlookers was optimistic, according to The Associated Press.

«I found several people here surprised and happy because today they raised the U.S. flag at the embassy,» he said. «This is positive; this is another step.»
The embassy had been closed since March 12, 2019, when the U.S. and Venezuela cut diplomatic relations, according to the website for the U.S. Department of State.
Maduro was captured during a U.S. military operation in Caracas on Jan. 3 and flown to New York, where he is currently being held in a federal jail.

He faces multiple charges, including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess those weapons.
Maduro’s wife, Cilia Flores, is also facing federal charges related to drug trafficking and weapons offenses.

Irán amenaza con más guerra, aumenta la represión a cualquier sospecha de disidencia y busca contener las fricciones internas bajo la figura de Mojtaba Jamenei.
La primera aparición pública del flamante líder supremo, herido en el bombardeo del 28 de febrero que mató a su padre y antecesor Alí Jamenei, fue un llamado a escalar el conflicto y estrechar filas en torno a su figura.
Nada cambió en el discurso oficial.
“Pido a todos los líderes políticos de Irán que hagan todo lo posible por mostrar unidad. Nunca nos rendiremos. Nuestros enemigos pagarán el precio, porque habrá venganza“, amenazó.

No fue solo una retórica belicista en la que anunció que el estrecho de Ormuz seguirá cerrado. También llamó a la dirigencia a dejar de lado cualquier división. El discurso podría resumirse en dos palabras: unidad y venganza.
Represión y fricciones internas
A Trump no le será tan fácil declarar el fin del conflicto más allá de la contundente superioridad militar de la coalición estadounidense-israelí. Con un gobierno dispuesto a todo para garantizar su supervivencia y sin una invasión o un levantamiento popular interno, los ayatollah no dan un paso atrás.
En ese escenario, Mojtaba Jamenei quiere erradicar de cuajo las fricciones internas surgidas entre las distintas ramas de las Fuerzas Armadas, según la prensa opositora en el exilio.

El sitio Irán Internacional, con sede en Londres, denunció que las fuerzas armadas se enfrentan hoy a “una aguda escasez de suministro, el aumento de las deserciones y la profundización de las fricciones entre el ejército regular (Artesh) y la Guardia Revolucionaria”.
Esta unidad de elite “maneja todos los aparatos de seguridad. Sería una combinación entre el FBI, la CIA y la mafia. O sea, como tres organizaciones juntas. Controlan toda la inteligencia, los aparatos de represión y las policías. Además, es una fuerza muy descentralizada y es la que tiene más poder porque es la que controla las armas”, dijo a TN el analista Jairo Lugo Ocando, decano de la Facultad de Comunicación de la Universidad de Sharjah en los Emiratos Árabes Unidos.

Según el reporte, la Guardia Revolucionaria Islámica negó asistencia a soldados heridos del ejército regular frente a una escasez de ambulancias y suministros de sangre.
“Los rechazos profundizaron la ira y el resentimiento entre el personal de las dos fuerzas, lo que se suma a las tensiones institucionales de larga data entre el ejército regular y la Guardia Revolucionaria”, indicó el informe.
En unidades de misiles, prosiguió el documento, se reportaron fallas en los equipos de comunicaciones y escasez de alimentos y otros suministros básicos. “Los relatos sugieren que los comandantes se enfocan en mantener la capacidad de armas estratégicas mientras las tropas se enfrentan a condiciones de vida deterioradas”, señaló el informe.
Aumenta la represión interna
En este panorama de crecientes suspicacias internas, la Agencia de Noticias de Activistas de Derechos Humanos (HRANA) denunció que, desde el comienzo de la guerra, fueron detenidas 200 personas en todo el país.
Los cargos incluyen actividad en redes sociales, envío de contenido a medios de comunicación extranjeros, espionaje y alteración del orden público.

Las amenazas contra cualquier señal de disidencia también partieron desde la televisión estatal. “Cuando el polvo de la sedición se asiente, te agarraremos del cuello”, amenazó el martes el presentador del Canal 3, Reza Molaei, citado por Irán Internacional.
Bahar Ghandehari, directora del Centro para los Derechos Humanos en Irán (CHRI), con sede en Estados Unidos, dijo que “la república islámica tiene antecedentes de aprovechar la sombra de la guerra y los momentos de crisis para intensificar la represión interna”.
Pero el temor no solo viene de la posibilidad de nuevas manifestaciones como las que sacudieron el país durante varias semanas y que causaron miles de muertos. La mayor preocupación llega de un eventual levantamiento de grupos armados de minorías como los kurdos, bombardeados recientemente por Irán en sus bases del Kurdistán iraquí.

“Mientras la Guardia Nacional todavía parece estar atacando Israel, disparando misiles y drones hacia países de la región, amenazando con cerrar el Estrecho de Ormuz y llevando a cabo otras medidas disruptivas, reservó sus capacidades más importantes para reprimir a los opositores armados“, dijo una fuente iraní citada por The Media Line, un medio especializado en temas de Medio Oriente.
Se trata de un momento clave para la supervivencia del gobierno en medio de la guerra.
“En un momento en que las autoridades se enfrentan al peligro inmediato de que los manifestantes regresen a las calles, los grupos armados de la oposición son vistos por el régimen como una grave amenaza”, concluyó la fuente.

The State Department is offering a $10 million reward for information on Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei and several senior officials linked to the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Officials said the reward, part of the State Department’s Rewards for Justice program, is an effort to gather intelligence on the IRGC and its leadership, which Washington accuses of orchestrating attacks against Americans and supporting terrorism.
The reward targets Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Iran’s late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, along with several key figures inside Iran’s ruling security apparatus.
The department said it is also seeking information about Ali Asghar Hejazi, deputy chief of staff for the Supreme Leader’s Office, and Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.

The program also lists several senior figures linked to Iran’s security and intelligence structure, including Yahya Rahim Safavi, a top military adviser to the supreme leader, Esmail Khatib, Iran’s minister of intelligence, and Eskandar Momeni, the country’s interior minister.
«The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), part of Iran’s official military, plays a central role in Iran’s use of terrorism as a key tool of Iranian statecraft,» the State Department said.
«In addition, the IRGC has created, supported, and directed other terrorist groups. The IRGC is responsible for numerous attacks targeting Americans and U.S. facilities, including those that have killed U.S. citizens,» the department added.

The agency said the IRGC has also expanded its influence far beyond military operations since its founding after the 1979 Iranian Revolution, becoming deeply embedded in the country’s political and economic system.
«Since its founding in 1979, the IRGC has gained a substantial role in executing Iran’s foreign policy,» the department said. «The group now wields control over vast segments of Iran’s economy and is influential in Iranian domestic politics.»
