Bernie Sanders Faces Backlash After Transgender Punk Rocker Performs Explicit Song at Wisconsin Rally

Laura Jane Grace's performance of a controversial song at the 'Fighting Oligarchy' rally has drawn criticism from conservatives and some moderates for its anti-Christian lyrics.

  • Laura Jane Grace, a transgender punk rocker and frontwoman of the band Against Me!, performed an explicit song titled 'Your God (God's D**k)' at Bernie Sanders' rally in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
  • The performance, which included sexually explicit and anti-Christian lyrics, has been widely criticized by conservative commentators and some moderate Democrats as offensive and divisive.
  • Sanders, who is on a nationwide 'Fighting Oligarchy' tour targeting working-class regions, thanked Grace for her performance, further fueling the backlash.
  • Critics, including social media figures and conservative activists, have labeled the song and its inclusion in the rally as 'pure evil' and an attack on Christian values.
  • The rally drew approximately 3,500 attendees and is part of Sanders' broader campaign against what he describes as the 'oligarchic society' under the Trump administration.
