White House Valentine's Day Post Draws Criticism Over Deportation Message

The Trump administration's social media post featuring a deportation-themed Valentine’s Day card has sparked polarized reactions and highlighted its hardline immigration policies.

  • The White House shared a Valentine's Day card on its official social media accounts with the message: 'Roses are red, violets are blue, come here illegally, and we'll deport you.'
  • The post featured images of President Donald Trump and border czar Tom Homan on a pink background with hearts, accompanied by a 'Happy Valentine’s Day' caption.
  • The message has received mixed reactions, with supporters praising it as bold and critics condemning it as inappropriate and inhumane for a government account.
  • This comes as the Trump administration intensifies its immigration crackdown, with over 11,000 arrests of illegal immigrants reported in the first 18 days of his second term.
  • The administration has also expanded deportation efforts, including the use of Guantanamo Bay for detainees, and has pressured Mexico to increase border security measures.
