Springsteen denounces ICE crackdown as 'Gestapo tactics' at New Jersey show

TL;DR
Springsteen used a New Jersey concert to condemn the Trump administration's surge of immigration officers as 'Gestapo tactics,' dedicating The Promised Land to Renee Good, the 37-year-old Minnesota woman killed by an ICE officer. He warned that democracy and the rule of law are at stake, described the federal presence as an occupation, and urged ICE to withdraw from Minneapolis. Trump responded by calling Springsteen overrated and a jerk.
