Australian politician Senator Ralph Babet has called for comedy rock band Tenacious D to be deported from the country following a controversial comment made by band member Kyle Glass about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. In footage from a Sydney concert, Glass joked to “not miss Trump next time” before blowing out birthday candles, sparking outrage from Senator Babet. The politician demanded their visas be revoked, arguing that anything less than deportation would endorse the President’s attempted assassination. This call for deportation comes from a senator who has previously championed free speech, despite engaging in controversial actions himself. The fallout from Glass’ comment has led to the postponement of Tenacious D’s upcoming gig in Newcastle, with ticket holders asked to wait for further information. The future of the band's remaining Australian tour dates remains uncertain.
