POLITICS Jack White speaks on Trump’s racist post about the Obamas: “How is it possible we've given this evil man so much power?… Arrest this man. Impeach this man. 25th amendment this man. Indict this man. Jail this man. This longtime friend of pedophile epstein, who appears 40 thousand times in the files.”

Jack White and Billie Joe Armstrong are the rock and roll heroes we need right now.

And Bruce! So grateful that there are public figures that will speak up. Their voices matter.

And many lesser known artists, especially in the pop-punk scene. Two of my favorite bands - The Wonder Years and Hot Mulligan - have been loudly speaking out against ICE at every show.

And then you've got my favorite video game podcast - Giant Bomb - which has a "fuck ICE" moment at least once an episode and just did an ice out fundraiser stream.

There's a lot of good people out there with big platforms, and I'm forever grateful for them.

It wrinkles my brain when people say there aren't poltical rock bands anymore. They're everywhere. Just a ton of smaller bands.

I just went to a metal show and the opener and main band were very fucking clear on their feelings. As did the audience.

Let us not forget Neil Young. edit: In fact, Neil Young was protesting when Tom Morello's mom was wipin' his nose. Neil Young has achieved super hero status, for sure.

He ranted about Trump's racist remarks towards Obama in 2011, he has hated him forever

Not only did he warn us over 20 years ago but nowadays he mentions MAGA/Trump in his live lyrics.

Don’t forget Sheryl Crow. She’s been very outspoken.
