White House Criticizes Selena Gomez Over Emotional Video on Deportations

The administration released a video featuring mothers of crime victims to counter Gomez's remarks on recent immigration policies.

Selena Gomez posted a now-deleted video expressing distress about mass deportations under President Trump's immigration policies, calling for empathy for immigrant families.
The White House responded with a video featuring mothers of crime victims, accusing Gomez of insincerity and prioritizing undocumented immigrants over American victims.
The mothers in the video criticized Gomez, citing their children's deaths at the hands of undocumented individuals, and voiced support for Trump's strict immigration measures.
Trump's administration has intensified immigration enforcement, including mass ICE raids, the Laken Riley Act, and plans to detain migrants at Guantanamo Bay.
Gomez's video received both backlash from conservative figures and support from celebrities and public figures who praised her compassion and advocacy for immigrant rights.
