Sabrina Carpenter Criticizes White House After ‘Juno’ Used in ICE Deportation Video. AI-Generated.
Introduction
On 1 December 2025, the White House published a social-media video showing footage from deportation operations conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), set to the background music of “Juno,” a hit song by Sabrina Carpenter. The video paired arrest scenes — people being chased, handcuffed, and detained — with the lyric “Have you ever tried this one?” From the start, the use of the song drew immediate criticism. The next day, Carpenter publicly condemned the video, calling it “evil and disgusting,” demanding her music not be used to promote what she described as an “inhumane agenda.”
