Vice President JD Vance proved this week that when it comes to satire, he can give as good as he gets.
The vice president was targeted alongside Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in the latest episode of South Park, which centered on the enforcement raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — South Park Elementary school counselor Mr. Mackey joins ICE after being terminated from his job.
Vance is depicted as a Trump mini-servant when Mackey is invited to Mar-a-Lago — President Trump kicks Vance in the episode after becoming annoyed with him.
“Well, I’ve finally made it,” Vance posted on X, in response to a South Park character depicting his likeness.

Homeland Security used an image from the episode to help with recruiting efforts, drawing fire from the show.
“We want to thank South Park for drawing attention to ICE law enforcement recruitment: We are calling on patriotic Americans to help us remove murderers, gang members, pedophiles, and other violent criminals from our country. Benefits available to new ICE recruits include an up to $50,000 signing bonus, student loan forgiveness, and retirement benefits. Apply today at join.ice.gov,” DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.
South Park responded on its official X account to say, “Wait, so we ARE relevant?” The vulgar hashtag “#eatabagofdicks” was included.

The retort appeared to be in response to White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers questioning the “fourth-rate” show’s relevance last month after Trump was trolled in its season premiere.
“This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention,” Rogers said. “President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history – and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from X, including a post from owner Elon Musk:

Well, at least the Vice President has a sense of humor.

You can’t troll 48.
The guy will own it, weaponize it and use it against the left while laughing.— Lisa (@Rockprincess818) August 7, 2025
I like all the jokes but it’s extremely weird the absence of similar ones to the Autopen administration
