*Ice Cube appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast this week and discussed politics, his BIG3 league, the COVID-19 vaccine mandates, and Bud Light’s disastrous marketing campaign with transgender TikTok influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

“Who controls Bud Light? That’s the question. Why would they make a dumb decision like that? Are they trying to ruin Bud Light? And why would they want to ruin Bud Light? Are they trying to take down some of our most iconic American brands?” the rapper asked on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Fox News reports. 

Rogan said Americans are tired of woke politics.

“People are sick of this s–t. They’re sick of social things like that, that are controversial getting stuffed in your face, where you have to accept. People are like, ‘I don’t want to accept it,’” he said.

“Politics really shouldn’t be in someone’s beer mug,” Ice Cube added. 

Bud Light corporate, according to Rogan, is out of touch with its customers. 

“They don’t know any real people. They don’t know regular people,” Rogan said. “They have no idea that if you take a brand [like] Bud Light, which is known for blue-collar drinking people that like to f—ing watch football and drink Bud Light, then all of a sudden you have this mentally ill person who’s just an attention w—e,” Rogan said, referring to Mulvaney. 

Elsewhere in the conversation, the hip-hop mogul slammed the NBA and expressed support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s book that takes aim at Dr. Fauci and big pharma.

Following the interview, RFK Jr. tweeted a clip of Rogan and Cube’s discussion and said it was a conversation “that we should all be having.” He later referred to Ice Cube as a “civil rights leader.”

Ice Cube is catching flack after meeting up with the controversial politician and former mayor of Cleveland Dennis Kucinich, Yahoo reports. Kennedy Jr. shared a photo on Monday (July 10) and he captioned it: “@Dennis_Kucinich and I spent a wonderful evening with one of our country’s most influential and outspoken civil rights leaders @icecube!” 

Many liberals and Ice Cube fans are outraged because they believe he is endorsing Kennedy Jr.’s bid for president.

“For all the simple minded short bus people out there,” the “Friday” star commented on Twitter. “A picture is not an endorsement, dummy. Now get your a** over to bungalow 51 and STFU.” 

When one fan called Cube a “sellout” he clapped back: “Sellout?” Cube asked. “I work for myself. I’m self-made. How do you feed your family??? How much do you sell your time for per hour on your job?”
