Green Day, which recently was named as a Super Bowl act for the NFL’s biggest game, took the opportunity at a recent performance to support the people of Minnesota and call out ICE and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller.
On Saturday, the rock band called out the Trump administration.
Billie Joe Armstrong said, “I’m not a part of a redneck agenda. I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda.”
During the performance of “Holiday” and “Know Your Enemy,” he said, “This song is anti-fascism. This song is anti-war. We stand up for our brothers and sisters in Minnesota. … Ladies and gentlemen, Stephen Miller now has the floor.”
This all comes as it was announced that the band will headline the opening ceremony for Super Bowl LX.
“We are Super hyped to open Super Bowl 60 right in our backyard,” Armstrong said in a post shared by the NFL. “We are honored to welcome the MVPs who’ve shaped the game and open the night for fans all over the world. Let’s have fun! Let’s get loud!”
