Black Rebel Motorcycle Club shared a very clear, NSFW message for the Department of Homeland Security, and the internet cheered
Californian rock band Black Rebel Motorcycle Club may have bagged themselves a whole new set of supporters after their NSFW message to the Trump government – specifically the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) – went viral.
It started when the DHS used their recording of the American folk song God’s Gonna Cut You Down without permission in a cringeworthy propaganda video. Here’s that embarrassing video.

They sit around watching ’80s action films all day, don’t they? It’s the only explanation that makes sense.
Understandably, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club don’t want their music to be used in that way, and they made their feelings abundantly clear on social media.
To: U.S. Department of Homeland Security
From: Black Rebel Motorcycle ClubIt has come to our attention that the @dhsgov is improperly using our recording of “God's Gonna Cut You Down” in your latest propaganda video. https://t.co/AuAG4MfGDJ

It’s obvious that you don’t respect Copyright Law and Artist Rights any more than you respect Habeas Corpus and Due Process rights, not to mention the separation of Church and State per the US Constitution.
— BRMCofficial (@BRMCofficial) July 10, 2025
For the record, we hereby order @DHSgov to cease and desist the use of our recording and demand that you immediately pull down your video.
Oh, and go f… yourselves,

Their stand – and that sign-off – raised a virtual cheer on all platforms. Here’s what Twitter thought of it.

Hallmark is really missing a market here. Where’s the ‘Go F Yourself’ card section?

The GOP constantly uses music without permission. It’s time they are fined bigly.
They would use Kid Rock songs, but they suck.

First it was the idiot of the Secretary of Defense and now Coldsplay Barbie, they really believe that the laws don't apply to them.

Thank you for your attention in this matter.
I'm old, I don't know this band. I will now be adding them to my playlist.— Mrsrlj2 (@mrsrlj2) July 14, 2025

Hey @thecampaignbook not only are they unlawfully using this band’s music to advertise their illegal kidnappings raids, but they’re using your voice and @DavidAyerMovies’s words (a Bible verse, to be fair) as well.
Yall cool with this? https://t.co/6S9XT6Ptxi

Someone should bring this up in their Faith Circle.
God should also sue them for using Bible verses in their propaganda.
