First of all, that’s not how you renounce your citizenship.

But, I hope he doesn’t think he can go through the actual process and then do concerts in the US.

The principal reason for renunciation is to avoid the tax consequences of earnings abroad for persons with US citizenship.

It would be very difficult for someone who has renounced to then get the necessary P-1 visa to work in the US as a visiting foreign performer.

In general, if you renounce, it is hard to then earn income in the US.

This is the lead singer and leader of the world known and legendary band 'GREEN DAY' ... He wrote the song "American Idiot" ... google it. I really don't think he cares at this point (50 years old) if he ever sets foot on American soil again in his lifetime. He has other places to perform but ya know ...

Get his head blown off like those poor kids in Texas did. This is the Wild Wild West now, with a side dish of Murder Inc. on the side, because women and little girls reproductive rights are gone and they're merely sitting ducks for death. The GQP US Taliban Party IS now officially the Caliphate Party.

I will say that I don't think this anger at that murderous high court by people who know what just happened is not going to go away before the mid-terms. Now, turn that anger into VOTES. That anger and being repulsed is here for a long, long time which is a great thing.
