The event is set for February 8 around 8 p.m. EST at Levi\u2019s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and will be aired by One America news. The lineup features Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett, with TPUSA casting the show as a David-versus-Goliath challenge to the pro football establishment and a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >global pop star<\/a>, while Kid Rock described the effort as opposing the NFL\u2019s machine. The declaration comes amid backlash to Bad Bunny\u2019s selection, including criticism from conservative commentators and former President Donald Trump.Some reports suggest Bad Bunny may wear a dress and spotlight Puerto Rican queer icons and drag culture, a move described by sources as provocative. The TPUSA-hosted program emphasizes themes of faith, family, and freedom rather than a political agenda.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"site-content-contain\"> \t\t<main id=\"main\" role=\"main\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<article id=\"post-759210\">\n<div>\n<figure><figcaption>(R) Musician Kid Rock speaks during a subcommittee hearing with the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation in the Russell Senate Office Building on January 28, 2026 in Washington, DC.
