A screenshot of an X (formerly Twitter) post by Elon Musk reacting to a tweet from the official White House account. Musk’s caption reads, “Haha wow” followed by emojis. The White House tweet features a video titled “ASMR: Illegal Alien Deportation Flight” and shows a person walking on pavement with a pile of metal chains and handcuffs on the ground. The post has received over 12.1 million views.

Elon's laughing at Black and Brown immigrants being completely chained up for a flight while the White House calls it ASMR.

Hell is too good for this bastard.
