T o mark Valentine’s Day, the White House posted a meme across its X, Instagram, and Facebook social media accounts. The post included a new take on the popular “roses are red, violets are blue” refrain. But in lieu of a traditional love poem, the White House instead came up with a rhyme that targeted illegal immigration.

As federal officials carry out the Trump administration's deportation plans across the country, the White House on Tuesday sparked backlash after posting a video on X mocking immigrants being deported.
