Liberal lion Bruce Springsteen led the lineup at the Minneapolis-St. Paul branch of the No Kings rallies taking place in cities across America on Saturday.

The events were set up to express left-wing opposition to various Trump administration policies, including the ICE raids and the Iran War.

Minneapolis was a nexus of anti-ICE demonstrations at the start of this year, with outrage against the government intensifying after two protestors - Alex Pretti and Renee Good - were killed in encounters with federal law enforcement.

Springsteen, a longtime Democrat who opened Joe Biden's inauguration special and has been a vociferous critic of Donald Trump, released a song on January called Streets of Minneapolis as a reaction to the bloodshed.

'Well, this past winter, federal troops brought death and terror to the streets of Minneapolis. They picked the wrong city,' Springsteen trumpeted onstage.

With Springsteen concert tickets going for as much as $3,000 each, who can blame them?

Not only that, but look carefully at the Born In The USA album cover and look what Bruce is doing to the flag.

Yes it was. It appealed to the “Imagine” crowd, but in neither case could they really tell you why...

His old stuff was good in its style, imitating Dylan with some Jersey-culture lyrics and musical style mixed in.

Then he had a really big hit, "Born to Run", and that's about the time he went political, which was an unfortunate choice for a guy who is otherwise as stupid as he is.

These “Hipppy Dippy” Over the Hills...haven’t formed a protest crowd like this since 1969.

I love it!

What's the difference between Bruce Springsteen and a pile of dog poo?
Answer: 'The dog poo is smarter!!'

Smells better, too.
