Musical artist Billie Eilish’s political Grammy Awards statement is being put to the test by a Native American tribe.
Eilish broke out a common leftist refrain on Sunday to declare that “no one is illegal on stolen land,” which is used to dismiss and even justify not enforcing federal immigration laws and removing illegal aliens.
“I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. Our voices really do matter, and the people matter,” she added, wearing an ‘ICE Out’ pin to show her support for anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sentiments. “And f**k ICE, that’s all I’m gonna say, sorry.”
While it was quickly mocked on social media, especially by those noting that Eilish enjoys a multi-million dollar mansion in Los Angeles, her statement happened to catch the attention of the Tongva tribe of Southern California. They released a statement on Tuesday, noting that her lavish home sits squarely atop their “ancestral land.”
“We appreciate the opportunity to provide clarity regarding the recent comments made by Billie Eilish,” the statement to Fox News Digital read. “As the First People of the greater Los Angeles basin, we do understand that her home is situated in our ancestral land. Eilish has not contacted our tribe directly regarding her property. We do value the instances when Public Figures provide visibility to the true history of this country.”
“We have reached out to her team to express our appreciation for her comments. It is our hope that in future discussions, the tribe can explicitly be referenced to ensure the public understands that the greater Los Angeles basin remains Gabrieleno Tongva territory.”

😂 of course! She wasn’t referring to the Native Americans SHE stole from. 🙄

All these elites are only referring to the masses when they speak. They themselves are too important to take part in these activities 🙄

POV: Ding dong. This is the Tongva tribe. We are here to take back what is rightfully ours.
Eiliesh: wait. What? You’re breaking up.

Tell her if she believes her childish statement she gave at the Grammys, then she needs to give up her home to them. Otherwise, she needs to STFU.

As a woman of principle, I’m sure that Eilish will do the right thing.
