An attempt by the Department of Homeland Security to explain away using a song by pop superstar Sabrina Carpenter in an ICE propaganda video, despite Carpenter’s protestations, did not get an airing on MS NOW on Wednesday morning.
On Tuesday, a war broke out between Carpenter and ICE over the use of her song “Juno” over videos of immigrants being brutalized on orders from Donald Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
Carpenter called the misuse of her music “evil and disgusting,” and added, “Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”
That led to a response from Abigail Jackson said: “Here’s a Short n’ Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won’t apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country. Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?”
On “Morning Joe,” Mika Brzezinski called the White House response “sick” and, when she attempted to read Jackson’s statement, co-host Joe Scarborough cut her off.
“Nope, nope, nope, nope. We’re not going to read the lies,” he interjected.
“They are, ICE is getting innocent people that are going to see their family,” he continued. “They are, they are busting down like kindergartens and pulling out kindergarten teachers. They’re throwing mothers to the ground. It’s savage, the savagery, the cruelty.”
“And it’s something they celebrate; they love this,” he added. “They think inside the White House, they — I mean, Donald Trump has said before he doesn’t want to see mothers ripped from the arms of children, but that’s exactly what they’re doing tenfold compared to the first term. So it’s why he’s upside down on immigration, an issue that should be his strongest because the southern border is shut down.”
