Enterprise Earth has publicly denounced the actions and behavior of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement as well as US President Donald J. Trump, as per theprp. On January 31st, the progressive deathcore group raised money for the Minnesota Immigration Rapid Response Fund and issued the following condemnation on social media.
Yesterday was the 1 year anniversary of our latest EP, Descent Into Madness, of which we have a new vinyl for sale.
Yesterday was also the National Shutdown to protest ICE operations in MN, the Trump regime’s inhumane immigration actions, and the murder of our fellow humans while taking zero accountability.
We wanted to observe the national strike but also want to help the cause. Today, all profits from our new DiM vinyl sales will go to the Minnesota Immigrant Rapid Response fund.
Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump. Fuck White Nationalism.

Joan Jett has joined the increasing number of singers expressing support for protesters demonstrating against the murder of two US citizens in Minneapolis by ICE authorities, as per Loudersound. During the third of Iggy Pop‘s Summer Concert Tour performances in Wānaka, New Zealand’s South Island, Jett read a statement.
Many of us here and in the US are horrified daily at what’s happening in my country, America, to America, by this trumped-up government regime. We in the US do not have to accept what this administration is doing to Minneapolis, St Paul and other cities and towns all across North America. To our neighbours – north and south, and frankly, the whole world – we don’t accept it. We don’t accept the brutality, the lies, the loss of our simplest pleasures. So over the next year, as many of us in the States have been and will continue working hard to mitigate and lessen all the damage done, we’ll keep at it. The change is gonna come. Yes, it is.
Tom Morello, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Thrice, Billy Bragg, Randy Blythe of Lamb of God, Rise Against, The Jayhawks, My Morning Jacket, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, the Dave Matthews Band, Brandi Carlile, Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, and Lady Gaga are among the other musicians who have voiced their opposition to the murders of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti.
Brothers and sisters, thank you for welcoming us to the battle of Minneapolis. My friends, if it looks like fascism, sounds like fascism, acts like fascism, dresses like fascism, talks like fascism, kills like fascism and lies like fascism, brothers and sisters, it’s f*cking fascism. It’s here, it’s now, it’s in my city, it’s in your city and it must be resisted, protested, defended against, stood up to, exposed, ousted, overthrown and driven out. By who? By you. By me.
Minneapolis is an inspiration to the entire nation. You have heroically stood up against ICE, stood up against Trump, stood up against this terrible rising tide of state terror. You’ve stood up for your neighbors and for yourselves and for democracy and for justice. Ain’t nobody coming to save us, except us. And brothers and sisters, you are showing the way.
To that end, we would like to begin our program with an old Native American war chant. We encourage you to singalong, in this very room Prince created a revolution, now it’s our turn. – Tom Morello
