Ralph Babet, United Australia Party's senator for posting on social media, was first to leap into action, demanding the band be deported:

I call on the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to join me in denouncing Tenacious D, Jack Black and band member Kyle Gass, and I call on the Immigration Minister Andrew Giles to revoke their visas and deport them immediately.

This is the same senator who in April refused to take down graphic footage of the attack on Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel from his X account because: "Without free speech our nation will fall".

In the U.S., this kind of hypocrisy is so common that people apparently no longer notice it -- if they even did in the first place.
