Sabrina Carpenters låt tonsatte ICE-gripande
Vita huset har använt artisten Sabrina Carpenters låt ”Juno” i en Tiktok-video som visar gripanden av papperslösa, rapporterar Rolling Stone.
Det är oklart om Vita huset fått tillstånd att använda låten. Varken Carpenters eller Vita husets representanter har svarat på Rolling Stones frågor.
Donald Trumps administration har tidigare använt musik utan tillstånd. Förra månaden kritiserade artisten Olivia Rodrigo Vita huset och det amerikanska inrikesdepartementet för att ha använt hennes musik i en video om självmant återvändande.
Även den uttalade Trumpkritikern Taylor Swifts musik har nyligen använts i politiska videor.

A major aspect of Donald Trump's presidential election campaigns, in his 2016, 2020, and 2024 campaigns, was unauthorized use of music at his prominent and frequent political rallies. Below are musicians who have voiced opposition to their music being used by Trump at his rallies, or for other political purposes, and the actions they took in response to their music's use.
Separately to the individual cases below, a group of artists including Mick Jagger, Lorde, Sia, Blondie, Sheryl Crow, Green Day, Lionel Richie, Elvis Costello, Keith Richards, Steven Tyler and Rosanne Cash in collaboration with the Artist Rights Alliance, have signed a letter demanding that politicians seek permission before playing their music at campaign rallies and public events. Trump's use of music without permission has become the subject of satire, with The Onion claiming that the estate of Irving Berlin was suing Trump for his glockenspiel rendition of "God Bless America", and that the Francis Scott Key estate had sent Trump a cease and desist letter demanding he stop playing "The Star-Spangled Banner" at his rallies.
Venues and political campaigns can buy rights to play songs through licensing packages offered by performing rights organizations such as BMI and ASCAP. BMI and ASCAP allow artists to remove a song from a campaign's Political Entities License. After BMI or ASCAP notifies the campaign of the song's removal, the campaign must stop using the song or risk legal action for copyright infringement. A political campaign that uses a licensed song without the artist's permission may also risk legal action on grounds of trademark infringement, false advertising, or right of publicity.
