Secret Service investigates legendary heavy metal band after they held fake EXECUTION of President Trump on stage

By STEPHEN M. LEPORE, US SENIOR REPORTER Published: 04:09, 21 June 2026 | Updated: 04:09, 21 June 2026 The outrageous heavy metal band GWAR said they've been probed by Secret Service following fake executions of Donald Trump on stage.  The band has long been known for the shock value of its live performances, done in wild costumes and featuring heavy use of fake bodily fluids to spray on the audience. Another facet of their show features the phony killing of public figures, including presidents dating back to at least Barack Obama and even the likes of Princess Diana. However, more recently, the band has staged mock execution of a fake Trump, which the band's singer Mike 'Blöthar The Berserker' Bishop claims has gotten them investigated by the federal government. 'We killed President Obama. We didn't hear from the Secret Service. But you kill Trump, and you better believe that there's gonna be some s*** going on,' Bishop said. Video of the band 'killing' President Trump at Warped Tour in Washington has gone viral in recent weeks, causing outrage with conservatives.  'And that happened to us. It happened to us not too long ago,' Bishop told Rockin' with Jam Man. The band had even performed the mock executions during Trump's first term.  A member of the outrageous heavy metal band GWAR say they've been investigated by Secret Service following their fake executions of Donald Trump on stage The band has long been known for the shock value of its live performances, done in wild costumes and featuring heavy use of fake bodily fluids to spray on the audience When asked point blank if GWAR had been investigated by the Secret Service, Bishop chuckled and said: 'Let's just say that GWAR is on some lists.'  Bishop likened the phenomenon to a reverse of liberal-led cancel culture on behalf of the right. 'For years, GWAR would do whatever the f*** we wanted. We would kill politicians from both sides of the aisle. We would kill famous people. We never had any backlash,' he said.  He said that Trump's election has made people more and more on edge about the killing of sacred cows.   'But until Donald Trump got in office, that's when people started getting extremely upset about politics and music and politics in art.'  He said that while the band does offend typically left-leaning crowds, the only people who 'come after' them support Trump.  'It's not like feminists or the politically correct squad, they didn't really come after GWAR. Who came after GWAR was f***ing Trump fans. That's who came after GWAR,' he said.  Bishop said that the real problem with the controversy surrounding their show is that it causes ticket companies to think twice about working with them.   However, more recently, the band has been publicly executing Trump, which the band's singer Mike 'Blöthar The Berserker' Bishop claims has gotten them investigated by the federal government Video of the band 'killing' President Trump at Warped Tour in Washington has gone viral in recent weeks 'What they have to do is make it hard for you to make money. And that's what they try to do. And especially a company like Live Nation, which is a big concert company that does shows and stuff like that, they are susceptible to pressure from the government,' he said.  'And when you upset them, they can lean on you, and that is f***ing censorship, no matter what you call it. so, we have faced that. GWAR faces it all the time. It's a real f***ing thing.'  A spokesperson for the Secret Service declined comment specifically on the GWAR incident when reached by The Daily Mail. 'The US Secret Service investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees. Out of concern for operational security, we do not discuss matters of protective intelligence.'
