White House Slammed Over Deportation Meme Video

News summary

The Trump White House faced backlash after posting a video on its official X account that used the viral 'Jet2 holiday' meme and Jess Glynne's song 'Hold My Hand' to accompany footage of ICE deporting handcuffed migrants. The video, which portrayed deportations in a lighthearted manner, was widely condemned as insensitive and mocking of a serious issue. Jess Glynne publicly criticized the administration for misusing her music, emphasizing her song stands for love and unity. The incident sparked outrage on social media, with users and commentators labeling the post as 'vile' and 'shameful.' The controversy followed Trump's signing of a $170 billion bill to boost border enforcement, making ICE the most funded law enforcement agency in the U.S. Despite criticism, the White House defended its use of memes to promote its immigration agenda.
