The Foo Fighters are fighting back.
A representative for the rock band told USA TODAY on Sunday that the Donald Trump campaign did not ask them for permission to use the group's song "My Hero" at the former president's rally on Friday with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in Glendale, Arizona, "and if they were, they would not have granted it."
The representative added that "any royalties received as a result of this use will be donated" to Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign.
USA TODAY has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment. A campaign spokesperson told The Independent, "We have a license to play the song."
