White House Slammed After Sharing Disgusting 'ASMR' Video Of Migrants Being Deported

Trump's White House sparked outrage after sharing a video of migrants being chained up and put on a plane with the caption, "ASMR: Illegal Alien Deportation Flight."

Republican President Donald Trump's White House enraged social media users after sharing an "unconscionable" ASMR video featuring chained immigrants being deported from the country.

ASMR, or autonomous sensory meridian response, is a tingling response from certain sounds, sights, or touch for those seeking a pleasant and relaxing sensation.


Titled "ASMR: Illegal Alien Deportation Flight," the non-verbal clip featured immigrants being chained by Enforcement and Removal Operations agents.

Audible sounds included the clinking of chains and the footsteps of immigrants climbing steps to board jets ready to fly migrant deportees across the border.

Here is the video.

The clip sparked outrage, with critics slamming the White House for sharing the "dehumanizing" clip.














It is unclear who at the White House was responsible for creating the video or who posted it.

Trump, who is the first impeached U.S. President to return to office and the first convicted felon to become the Commander in Chief, has cracked down on mass deportations since day one of swearing in for his second non-consecutive term.

His administration has ramped up the arrests of undocumented migrants across the country, detaining thousands after separating them from their families, regardless of their criminal history or lack thereof.

Unbeknownst to conservatives, many of these migrants contribute to the economy through labor in various industries like agriculture, construction, and hospitality roles. They also pay taxes, including sales and property taxes, while remaining ineligible for government benefits.

In California alone, undocumented immigrants living in the state contributed "nearly $8.5 billion in taxes" in 2022, according to estimates from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP).

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
