Photo: Bang ShowbizBritish rock band Radiohead said on Friday it wanted a promotional video for the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that used their song to be taken down. Ice, whose immigration enforcement tactics have been widely condemned by human rights advocates during President Donald Trump's hardline immigration crackdown, posted a video last week that used a version of Radiohead's song "Let Down". Radiohead said the song was used without the band's permission. Many celebrities have also previously condemned Ice. Rights advocates have also raised free speech and due process concerns in Ice's detention and attempted deportations of pro-Palestinian foreign protesters who opposed US ally Israel's assault on Gaza.
