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).

Stay-At-Home Mom Offers Dire Warning For Other Moms After Husband Suddenly Files For Divorce

We've all heard the advice to not put all of our eggs in one basket, and while we generally think of that in terms of work, so that if one form of income dries up, we'll have a backup plan, it can apply to our relationships, too.

While it's perfectly okay to be in a monogamous relationship, we shouldn't place all of our happiness in our partner, or measure our sense of self-worth solely through the relationship, and it can be risky to fully depend on our partners financially.
