By sharing a screenshot with an ICE recruitment link on its official X account, the Department of Homeland Security has blurred the line between parody and promotion.

Overview

  • The new episode depicts an animated Kristi Noem repeatedly shooting puppies, lampooning her real-life admission that she shot her dog for being “impossible to train.”
  • After facing education budget cuts, Mr. Mackey joins ICE and orchestrates raids on a live Dora the Explorer show and Mar-a-Lago in a broader critique of U.S. immigration enforcement.
  • The DHS’s official X account shared an image from the episode alongside a link to ICE recruitment but did not specify whether the post was ironic or intentional.
  • Online searches for “¿Kristi Noem dispara a los perros?” surged within 24 hours of the episode’s release as viewers debated the dark humor.
  • The gag follows recent White House criticism over South Park’s portrayal of President Trump and underscores the creators’ commitment to pushing satirical boundaries.
