"Santa doesn't just loves snow, he's a fan of ICE too in a new AI-generated video shared online by the Department of Homeland Security. It starts off with St. Nicholas suiting up in a red bulletproof vest before he goes out and starts slapping cuffs on undocumented immigrants. Another scene sees Father Christmas processing an individual at what appears to be an immigration facility, and then escorting him onto an ICE AIR' plane for deportation."
"It also promoted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's Home for the Holidays incentive as well as the rebranded CBP Home app, which was initially called CBP One and used by the Biden administration to help facilitate migrants' legal entry into the United States. The new CBP Home app, meanwhile, can be used to signal intent to self-deport and, if approved, provides travel assistance and financial support."
DHS circulated an 18-second AI-generated video that portrays Santa Claus as an ICE agent arresting and deporting undocumented immigrants. The clip shows St. Nicholas wearing a red bulletproof vest, handcuffing people, processing an individual at an apparent immigration facility, and escorting someone onto an ICE AIR plane. The video promoted Kristi Noem's Home for the Holidays incentive and the rebranded CBP Home app. The CBP Home app, formerly CBP One, can be used to signal intent to self-deport and, if approved, provide travel assistance and financial support, including a $3,000 exit bonus valid through the end of 2025.
