Bruce Springsteen proved once again that Hollywood elites live in a completely different reality than working Americans, launching a disgusting attack on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers during an unplanned concert Saturday night.

The 76-year-old has-been dedicated his performance of "The Promised Land" to "murdered" activist Renee Good, who was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis last week after she drove her SUV directly toward the federal officer. But here's what Springsteen conveniently left out: Good was literally trying to run down a law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon.

During his rant, Springsteen called ICE agents "Gestapo" - comparing American immigration officers to Nazi secret police. This is the same tired, disgusting playbook the radical left has been using for years to demonize the brave men and women who risk their lives to enforce our immigration laws.

The Real Story Media Won't Tell You

While Springsteen and his celebrity friends paint Good as some kind of martyr, the facts tell a different story. An ICE agent was conducting lawful immigration enforcement when Good made the decision to use her vehicle as a weapon. Any reasonable person understands that law enforcement officers have the right to defend themselves when someone tries to kill them with a 3,000-pound SUV.

But don't expect Boss Bruce to mention those inconvenient details. He's too busy virtue signaling to his wealthy liberal audience who haven't faced the real-world consequences of open borders policies.

"This is exactly the kind of anti-law enforcement rhetoric that puts our officers in danger every single day," said one former ICE official who requested anonymity.

This latest outburst comes as President Trump's administration ramps up deportation operations across the country, finally delivering on the mandate American voters gave him in November. Of course, that has celebrities like Springsteen absolutely losing their minds.

Patriots need to ask themselves: Why are wealthy entertainers so desperate to protect people who attack federal agents? And why do they hate immigration enforcement so much that they'll compare American officers to Nazis?

I live 20 miles from the border and see what's really happening here. ICE agents are heroes, not villains. Bruce should come down here and see the reality before running his mouth.

Lost all respect for Springsteen. Stick to music and stay out of politics!

My husband works in law enforcement and the disrespect these agents face daily is heartbreaking. They're just doing their jobs enforcing the laws Congress passed.

Does anyone know what specific incident triggered this outburst from Bruce? I'd like to know the full context of what the ICE agent actually did that was supposedly so controversial.

Typical Hollywood elite who has no clue what our border agents actually deal with. These ICE agents risk their lives protecting our country while Springsteen sits in his mansion criticizing them.

Exactly! Easy to talk when you live behind gates with private security.

Comparing ICE to the Gestapo is absolutely disgusting and shows complete ignorance of history. My grandfather fought actual Nazis - this comparison is offensive to veterans everywhere.

The left always goes straight to Nazi comparisons when they can't make a real argument.

Thank you for saying this. My father served in WWII and would be appalled by this comparison.

These celebrities are so out of touch it's not even funny. They live in a completely different world from the rest of us dealing with the consequences of open borders.
