Roomies, if you’ve been paying close attention, you may have observed that The White House has been posting some highly controversial and unexpected content on social media since Donald Trump assumed the presidency. Their latest post, however, appears to have gone too far, as the Catholic Conference of New York has released a statement directly addressing Trump’s actions.

Catholic Conference Responds to Donald Trump for Mocking Pope Francis
To provide some background, The White House recently shared not just one, but two provocative posts on Instagram. One of the images, also shared by Trump on Truth Social, depicts him dressed as a pope. This AI-generated image has ignited a firestorm on social media, especially as the world continues to mourn the passing of Pope Francis, who died on April 21.
The image quickly drew the ire of the Catholic Conference of New York State, which issued a statement on X (formerly Twitter), condemning Donald Trump for what they perceive as disrespect and mockery towards the pope.
“There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President. We have just buried our beloved Pope Francis, and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Please do not mock us,” the Catholic Conference firmly stated.
The White House Faces Backlash Over Kilmar Abrego Garcia Meme
In another controversial post on The White House’s Instagram account, a photo featuring Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, an El Salvadorian citizen residing in Maryland with a legal work permit, was shared. Despite a U.S. immigration judge granting him protection from deportation, the Trump Administration opted to proceed with his deportation, branding him as affiliated with the MS-13 gang. Rather than advocating for Kilmar’s release, Trump and The White House chose to turn his situation into a meme.
This particular image, which bears a resemblance to one from Barack Obama’s initial presidential campaign, displays the words “MS-13” prominently across it. Additionally, it includes a caption that reads, “KILMAR ABREGO GARCIA: NOT A “MARYLAND DAD.”
Public Reaction on Social Media
The Roommates did not hesitate to voice their opinions regarding Donald Trump and The White House’s shocking posts in the comment section of The Shade Room. Many users criticized Trump for his apparent lack of respect and decorum. Here are some of the noteworthy reactions:
Instagram user @aaronlintez_ wrote, “they would’ve lynched obama in the oval office for doing this bs.”
Instagram user @therealmarcmendez wrote, “No decorum, just a clown.”
Instagram user @mc.creal_unretired wrote, “Honestly, it feels like Trump has been president for 4 years already, and it’s only been 4 months. He still has 3 years and 8 months to go.”
Another user, @nafta_bella wrote, “I’m not Christian or catholic but disrespecting an entire people’s faith is not leader-like.”
Instagram user @brandon30j commented, “When you elect a clown, you get a circus.”
Another user, @kingtb.1 wrote, “I know other countries laugh at us because of how unprofessional this guy always is.”
In a heartfelt comment, Instagram user @miyw0rld expressed, “this is so sad for his family, imagine your father being defamed this way.”
Finally, Instagram user @clockworkangel_lover wrote, “So it’s cool if Trump is perceived as “gangsta” but he’s trafficking people to El Salvador for supposedly being the same thing. Y’all funny.”
Instagram user @mykel_hilliard wrote, “The White House is really embarrassing Americans with all of this.”
The White House Critiques Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Efforts
The situation escalates as The White House continues to engage in provocative behavior on social media platforms. Recently, their official Instagram account even took a jab at Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, seemingly celebrating deportations while mocking these crucial social issues.
The post originally surfaced on X before making its way to Instagram, boldly declaring, “Deport Every Illegal.” They seemed unapologetic, solidifying their stance with a simple “Yup” in the caption.
