An image of President Donald Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegsethand White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Millerin handcuffs was posted by California Gov. Gavin Newsom(D) on social media.
The AI-generated video shows the three sitting on a step with their hands behind their backs as “It’s cuffing season” flashes onscreen, per The Hill.
The video then shows the backseat of a car where Trump, Hegseth and Miller raise their cuffed hands to their faces and they start to cry.
The video ends with the three approaching the doors of a courthouse, where police, reporters and spectators are waiting and start taking pictures.
R&B singer SZA’s song “Big Boys” plays in the background.
Watch:
The video was in response to another video posted by the White House, which also featured SZA’s song. The video shows a sequence of images of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests.
“WE HEARD IT’S CUFFING SZN,” the post read. “Bad news for criminal illegal aliens. Great news for America.”
Watch:
SZA was not pleased here song was used for the White House video.
She posted on X that the White House is “rage baiting artists for free promo is PEAK DARK ..inhumanity +shock and aw tactics ..Evil n Boring.”
SZA was not the only artist to complain about the White House using a song.
Pop singer Sabrina Carpenter called the use of one of her songs for an ICE video “evil and disgusting.”
Newsom has used AI before.
Last week, he posted an AI-generated image of himself receiving the “inaugural Kohl’s Peace Prize” in response to Trump receiving the first FIFA Peace Prize.
In October, Newsom’s campaign office posted an AI-generated image of Marie Antoinette with Trump’s face.
“TRUMP ‘MARIE ANTOINETTE’ SAYS, ‘NO HEALTH CARE FOR YOU PEASANTS, BUT A BALLROOM FOR THE QUEEN!’” the post read.
