The White House took to Instagram with a WILD post that’s got folks raising their eyebrows! On Friday an account representing Trump’s temporary home shared a controversial take on DEI and immigration. The bold message clowned diversity, equity, and inclusion, while celebrating deportations.
The DEI Post That Shook Social Media
The White House’s Instagram page had social media talking on May 2 with a repost of an X post that read, “Deport Every Illegal.” And if that wasn’t enough, the WH declared it’s the only definition of DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) it is riding behind. The tweet was captioned, “The only DEI we support: Deport Every Illegal.” Whoever runs the White House’s IG page doubled down with a slick, “Yup” for the caption.
Then, in another tweet, the White House continued its attack on DEI, asserting it was “garbage—we lit the match.” Both posts are part of the Trump administration’s ongoing immigration stance.
The Roomies Respond To The White House Post
Framing their dislike for DEI in such a way has folks side-eyeing the comments hard. People had some STRONG views about the White House sharing not-so-nice thoughts on DEI. For example, Roomies sounded off in the comments section of TSR’s post. Here’s what some had to say:
@m.garavani wrote, “I’ll never forgive y’all for putting us through this for 4 years.”
@jvaldez71 commented, “Regardless of policies, this is by far the most immature and childish administration in US history. It’s extremely embarrassing to be an American right now.”
@nessie_blaze added, “Somebody reset the game.. blow on the cartridge or somethin cause this is outta control.”
@thepeopleschamp242 wrote, “The most Ghetto uncivilized and unprofessional administration. Like be for real
”
@kidinfamous asked, “How you worried about illegals when you’re a convicted felon yourself? 
”
@itsofficialqveen expressed, “Whewww the fact the white house making bold statements like this on social media due to his admin is woww”
@msbasketball1 wrote, “This can’t be real!! There’s No way.. The White House social media team just put this out there like this!! This whole country feels like we are on an extended episode of PUNK’D!!!! 
”
@mikell_je commented, “Let me go become a therapist because the trauma after this presidency gonna be unreal”
Meanwhile, @chefkccardwell wrote, “When the White House page starts looking like Wendy’s, it’s beyond a problem”
The White House Has BEEN Stirring The Pot
The White House is clearly on a mission to keep people’s social media timelines spicy, as this ain’t the first time it has flexed controversial takes. On January 24, just days after Donald Trump‘s inauguration, the White House shared a post showing handcuffed migrants being led into the back of a cargo aircraft. The text at the top of the photo read, “Promises made. Promises KEPT.” Meanwhile, the lower half of the image included the words, “Deportation Flights Have Begun.”
The White House shared some additional words in the caption, writing, “Just as he promised, President Trump is sending a strong message to the world: those who enter the United States illegally will face serious consequences.”
The following month, on Valentine’s Day, the White House posted a pink graphic with President Trump and border czar Tom Homan’s faces, with the text, “Roses are red, violets are blue. Come here illegally, and we’ll deport you.” The caption for the accompanying photo read, “Happy Valentine’s Day.”
And let’s not forget February 19, when the WH celebrated getting rid of New York City’s congestion pricing plan with a post on X, writing, “CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!” The account even included a fake Time magazine cover with Trump as a crowned king.
Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Is In Full Effect
In his first 100 days, Trump is said to have made a record-breaking immigration enforcement push, according to a statement released by ICE. The agency says they’ve arrested over 65,000 undocumented immigrants, targeting those who they deem a threat to society.
“The brave men and women of ICE protect our families, friends and neighbors by removing public safety and national security threats from our communities,” said acting Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Todd M. Lyons. “During President Trump’s first 100 days, ICE alone has arrested over 65,000 illegal aliens — including 2,288 gang members from Tren de Aragua, MS-13, 18th Street and other gangs. Additionally, 1,329 were accused or convicted of sex offenses, and 498 were accused or convicted of murder.”
Operation “Tidal Wave” in Florida alone has led to the arrest of over 1,100 people, per FOX Tampa Pay, with help from local law enforcement through the program. Trump has also reportedly tightened worksite enforcement, with ICE fining businesses over $1 million for hiring undocumented workers.
