In a post on X, the Department of Homeland Security used a South Park-style animation in a recruiting post, just days after South Park released a trailer for its upcoming episode featuring DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. The post was made after a White House spokesperson said the show "hasn’t been relevant in 20 years’ after the first episode of the new season depicted President Donald Trump in unflattering ways.

“Wait, so we are relevant?” the post reads.

It added a vulgar hashtag: “#eatabagofdicks.”

    I saw a headline that claimed South Park’s creators “apologized” for the Trump episode, but I knew it had to be bullshit.

    It was at San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) after the first episode aired. The 14 second clip has Trey give an insincere apology. Some news articles were more clickbaity with the title.

    Of course they’re not sorry. They made a funny episode.
