Key Points:

Bruce Springsteen opened his Minneapolis tour with a sharp critique of President Donald Trump’s administration, calling it “corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless and treasonous,” prompting cheers from the audience.
He urged fans to choose “resistance over complacency, unity over division and peace over war,” launching into politically charged songs including a cover of The Temptations’ “War” and his hit “Born In The U.S.A.”
Springsteen accused the Trump White House of making the U.S. a “reckless, unpredictable, predatory rogue nation,” criticizing actions such as abandoning NATO and censoring American history in museums.
He also condemned Attorney General Pam Bondi for protecting Trump’s interests and prosecuting his perceived enemies.
Joined by Tom Morello, Springsteen’s nearly three-hour show continued his long-standing opposition to Trump, including releasing protest music and planning a nationwide tour culminating in Washington, D.C.
