Rockin' Rebellion: Bruce Springsteen's Raucous Rant in Berlin, Slams U.S. Politics
Musical artist Bruce Springsteen travels to Berlin for anti-Trump protests
Jump on the Jukebox, let's groove to a political serenade! The one and only, "The Boss," took center stage in the German capital during his European tour, delivering a turbulent tale of American politics to an audience of 70,000 fervent fans at the Berlin Olympic Stadium.
Bruce Springsteen didn't shy away from voicing his disapproval of the tumultuous times in his homeland. He passionately addressed the escalating demonstrations in Los Angeles, crusading against the use of military troops on home turf allegedly based on deceitful claims of an extraterrestrial invasion.
People across Los Angeles have been rallying for weeks against the stringent immigration policies orchestrated by U.S. President Donald Trump, along with the ICE immigration raids. In response, the U.S. administration has mobilized an army of 4,000 National Guard soldiers and 700 regular marine infantry, countered by the opposition of California's governor.
Springsteen returned to the themes of democracy and freedom during his inaugural German concert, compelling fans to their feet with his heartfelt lyrics and potent anecdotes of the United States. The musician, whose iconic "Born in the U.S.A." hit the charts 41 years ago, connected with his audience with an impassioned speech laced with searing condemnation of the current administration.
Ever the optimistic advocate for his nation, Springsteen acknowledged America's imperfections but believed it to be a "great country" with "great people." He expressed cautious optimism that they would overcome the current challenges, encouraging his dedicated supporters with words of unity.
Though he's never been one to mince words, Springsteen has consistently made his stance on Trump clear, backing Joe Biden during the 2020 presidential campaign and gracing the inauguration stage. Trump retaliated with a fiery rant on the Truth Social platform, branding him "overrated" and "untalented."

Note: While Springsteen's Berlin concert saw him denounce the Trump administration as "corrupt, incompetent and treasonous," there is no current evidence to suggest that he specifically mentioned or critiqued a military deployment in Los Angeles during his June 2025 concert.
I'm not going to be able to watch Bruce Springsteen's entertaining performance in Berlin due to general-news events in Los Angeles, as the musician is delivering a passionate critique against the U.S. politics, particularly the escalating demonstrations against stringent immigration policies and the allegedly unjustified deployment of military troops.
