The United States Department of Homeland Security hit back at Olivia Rodrigo after the singer told them to stop using one of her songs in their \u201cracist, hateful propaganda.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAmerica is grateful all the time for our federal law enforcement officers who keep us safe,\u201d a spokesperson for DHS told TMZ<\/a> Friday after Rodrigo\u2019s comment went viral. <\/p>\n

The spokesperson added: \u201cWe suggest Ms. Rodrigo thank them for their service, not belittle their sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n

The remarks came after the Grammy winner voiced her displeasure that her song, \u201cAll-American Bitch,\u201d provided the backing track for a promotional video for United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (also known as ICE).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She wrote in a since-deleted comment, \u201cDon\u2019t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if the comment was deleted by DHS or by Rodrigo. Though, Rodrigo isn\u2019t the first musician to call out the president for using a song without permission \u2014 joining the likes of Beyonc\u00e9, Celine Dion, Adele, Pharrell\u00a0Williams and Rihanna.<\/p>\n

Rodrigo has also been a vocal critic of the Trump administration, having previously condemned the ICE raids in Los Angeles, Calif. back in June.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve lived in LA my whole life and I\u2019m deeply upset about these violent deportations of my neighbors under the current administration,\u201d she wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. \u201cLA simply wouldn\u2019t exist without immigrants. Treating hardworking community members with such little respect, empathy and due process is awful. I stand with the beautiful, diverse community of Los Angeles and with immigrants all across America. I stand for our right to freedom of speech and freedom to protest.\u201d<\/p>\n
