There was a lot of speculation that Lady Gaga would use her halftime show to go after President Trump. While there were political overtones in her performance, it was not too overt.
Her performance:
WOW. Amazing.@ladygaga's #PepsiHalftime Show! ?#SB51 https://t.co/z9vCKRBKkC

Praise:
Incredible performance from my friend @LadyGaga. You amaze me — and not just onstage. Proud to work with you to end sexual assault. #ItsOnUs pic.twitter.com/ZOva2lpAOZ

And it had drones:

But the real mocking was aimed at Tom Brady and the Patriots:

I can't believe Lady Gaga scored a touchdown before Tom Brady.

Lady Gaga finishes up by throwing the mic down limply, in a tribute to Tom Brady's first half performance. #SuperBowl

Lady Gaga looks way more athletic than Tom Brady tonight. #SuperBowl
