As I noted earlier this morning, Marco Rubio’s Spotify playlist released by Politico this morning included a controversial song ‘Pumped Up Kicks,’ even though the track itself didn’t appear on his list.

It looks like the mistake has been corrected, as Rubio – or one of his staffers -  went back and added the song about an hour ago according to the account timeline. The rest of the songs were added to the list 19 hours ago.

The song ‘Pumped up Kicks’ was banned on several radio stations after the Sandy Hook shooting due to its controversial lyrics.
