— Republicans on Wednesday condemned a poster by Pearl Jam that shows the White House in flames and a bald eagle pecking at a skeleton they say is meant to depict President Donald Trump. The National Republican Senate Committee compared it to the now-infamous photo of comedian Kathy Griffin holding a fake decapitated Trump head. The message from Ament accompanying the poster included the description: “D.C. Pearl Jam was travelling Wednesday and not immediately available for comment, according to Whitney Williams, a publicist for the Missoula concert. Ament told The Associated Press in April that the band wanted to use the Montana concert to support local advocacy groups, encourage voter participation and boost Tester’s campaign.
