Just when some fans thought the feud between "South Park" and the White House reached an impasse.
The raunchy comedy showed no signs of easing up this week, with more jabs at President Donald Trump as a 20-second teaser for its Aug. 6 episode featured an image of Trump sitting at a dinner table with Satan. The moment depicts Trump rubbing Satan's leg under the table before Satan tells him to stop.
Despite the ongoing satirical jabs, Homeland Security's official X account shared a screengrab from that trailer to encourage people to apply for jobs at Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The still depicts multiple masked and armed ICE agents storming a road in the same direction, with a link to the agency's careers page.
"Wait, so we ARE relevant?" the "South Park" X account replied to the Aug. 5 post before telling the agency to "eat a bag of [expletive]."
The show's Season 27 premiere last month made a not-so-subtle dig at Trump, who was depicted cuddling in bed with Satan, his lover, using actual photos of the president crudely placed on an animated body. White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers later dismissed the episode, calling the Comedy Central staple a "fourth-rate show" that "hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention."
