The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Tuesday used imagery from "South Park," which had dedicated its season premiere to mocking President Trump, to encourage recruitment for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) ahead of the show's next episode, which deals with Trump immigration enforcement.

On the social platform X, the DHS account posted an image of the show’s animation with several people loaded into a car labeled ICE. Several similar vehicles followed in the background, with one appearing to sound its siren.

All the characters in the ICE vehicles were depicted wearing masks covering the lower halves of their faces.

“JOIN.ICE.GOV,” the DHS wrote in the post, linking to the recruitment site.

The DHS post came shortly after "South Park"
