White House Shares 'ASMR' Video Of Shackling Deportees, Musk Reacts

<p>A controversial video titled &lsquo;ASMR: Illegal Alien Deportation Flight&rsquo; was shared on The White House X handle. In the 41-second video, people termed as &lsquo;illegal immigrants&rsquo; are seen being frisked, and cuffed both by the ankles and wrists.</p> <p>Elon Musk, head Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) commented on the video, &ldquo;So based 🦾&rdquo;, he also retweeted the video, with the caption, &ldquo;Haha wow&rdquo;.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="tl">Haha wow 🧌🏅 <a href="https://ift.tt/X0oE34H> &mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1891923570768384107?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 18, 2025</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p>Other scenes feature a close-up of a man's hands being cuffed together, another man's feet shackled as he ascends a stairway to a plane, and a figure preparing to board the aircraft.</p> <p>Sounds of chains and humming of the flight engine are used as &lsquo;ASMR&rsquo; (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response), which refers to the calming sounds that trigger pleasant sensations, making the title particularly contentious. ASMR videos have been a viral trend on social media, the videos would include people cleaning, eating, putting on makeup etc.</p> <p>The video was shared earlier Tuesday by the Seattle office of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, with the words: "REMOVAL FLIGHT. A group of undocumented aliens are flown from Seattle as part of a process to finalize return to their home countries."</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">✈️REMOVAL FLIGHT✈️<br />A group of undocumented aliens are flown from Seattle as part of a process to finalize return to their home countries.<br />For more info on ICE Air, visit <a href="https://ift.tt/zy3gUrx>. <a href="https://t.co/VD0GwSp8jO">pic.twitter.com/VD0GwSp8jO</a></p> &mdash; ICE Seattle (@EROSeattle) <a href="https://twitter.com/EROSeattle/status/1891900234889822659?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 18, 2025</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p>ICE's video starts with a shot of an officer wearing a jacket that identifies him as part of the agency's Enforcement and Removal Operations unit. However, the version shared by the White House begins differently, showing an officer standing behind a shackled migrant, seemingly frisking him.</p> <p>During the 2024 presidential campaign, one of President Donald Trump&rsquo;s key promises was to carry out mass deportations of immigrants residing in the US without legal authorisation.</p> <p>The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has said that, since January 2025, it is detaining and planning to deport 600 to 1,100 immigrants a day. That marks an increase from the average 282 immigration arrests that happened each day in September 2024 under the Biden administration.</p> <p>The current trend would place the Trump administration on track to apprehend 25,000 immigrants in Trump&rsquo;s first month in office. On an annual basis, this is about 3,00,000 &ndash; far from the &ldquo;millions and millions&rdquo; of immigrants Trump promised to deport.</p> <p><strong>ALSO READ: <span style="color: #e03e2d;"><a style="color: #e03e2d;" href="https://ift.tt/HlPGCxm Mumbai College Professor Cheated Of Rs 1.8 Crore By Cyber Fraudsters Posing As IT Officials</a></span></strong></p>
