Perpetual whiner Bruce Springsteen can’t seem to stick to songwriting and singing for entertainment’s sake, releasing a new track in response to the “state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis.”
The aging rocker has repeatedly bashed President Donald Trump and his administration, and released a new song this week called “Streets of Minneapolis,” dedicated to “the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good,” the two activists killed this month during federal immigration operations in Minnesota.
Springsteen’s song was blasted as “irrelevant” and “inaccurate” by the White House in a statement condemning the liberal singer who earlier this month ranted that ICE should “get the f*ck out” of Minneapolis.”
“I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday, and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis,” Springsteen explained in a post on Instagram.

“A city aflame fought fire and ice/’Neath an occupier’s boots,” Springsteen sings. “King Trump’s private army from the DHS / Guns belted to their coats / Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law / Or so their story goes.”
“Then we heard the gunshots / Then Alex Pretti lay in the snow, dead / Their claim was self-defense, sir / Just don’t believe your eyes / It’s our blood and bones and these whistles and phones / Against Miller and Noem’s dirty lies,” Springsteen’s ode continues, referring to Stephen Miller and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
“Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice/Singing through the bloody mist/We’ll take our stand for this land/ And the stranger in our midst,” the song continues. “Here in our home they killed and roamed / In the winter of ’26 / We’ll remember the names of those who died /On the streets of Minneapolis.”

The White House reacted to the singer suffering from obvious Trump Derangement Syndrome.
“The Trump Administration is focused on encouraging state and local Democrats to work with federal law enforcement officers on removing dangerous criminal illegal aliens from their communities — not random songs with irrelevant opinions and inaccurate information,” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said in a statement.
“The media should cover how Democrats have refused to work with the Administration, and instead, opted to provide sanctuary for these criminal illegals,” she added.
Fox News’ Trace Gallagher noted that the song’s lyrics seemed “lifted from the DNC handbook.”

While The Boss certainly got his applause from all the Trump-hating leftists on social media, many other X users delivered a brutal reality check.
I am convinced that Bruce Springsteen is a paid propagandist. He already has a song out about Minneapolis. His true fans hate all of his dumb social justice takes.

But no protest song for the innocent Americans lost due to illegal aliens.

Where is his song about Iran and 20,000 innocents murdered?
