Semisonic reacts as Trump deportation video sends their 90s hit viral once more

White House and Border Patrol official Instagram accounts posted a video of the agents of the agency searching illegal immigrants before deportation set to the tune of the 1998's Closing time.



The Trump administration used Semisonic's 1998 hit "Closing Time" in a deportation video posted on White House and Border Patrol social media accounts. Semisonic has stated that they did not authorize the use of their song, which was inspired by both bar closures and the birth of Dan Wilson's daughter. The video surfaces amid data showing decreased border encounters under the Trump administration.
