Love was not in the air for illegal immigrants in the United States.
The White House posted a Valentine's Day card on social media accounts Friday.
It featured President Donald Trump and border czar Tom Homan's faces with a pink background.
'Roses are red, violets are blue, come here illegally and we'll deport you,' the message read.
The Valentine - which articulated the Trump administration hardline immigration policy - stood in stark contrast to the candy heart displays former first lady Jill Biden installed on the North Lawn during the last four years.

On Thursday night ICE Director Tom Homan joined Laura Ingraham on The Ingraham Angle on FOX News. During their discussion Homan announced that he had referred socialist open-borders Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez to the Department of Justice.
This comes after AOC proudly announced that she was holding webinars to teach illegal aliens how to avoid ICE agents in New York City.
Homan is not playing around. It’s about time the immigration laws were followed in America – especially by elected lawmakers.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ramped up grants for migrants from 2020 to 2024 — which included cash assistance to buy cars, homes and even build credit for startup businesses, according to a shocking watchdog report that found taxpayers were left on the hook for $22.6 billion.
HHS’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) — which came under fire last year for having lost track of 32,000 migrant kids in the US — handed out the high sum to a host of nonprofits, effectively acting as a “giant magnet” for those crossing the US border and claiming asylum, auditors from the money monitor OpenTheBooks revealed exclusively to The Post.

The US Army released its latest recruitment advert to promote the no-nonsense approach of the Trump era - and the differences between the Biden-era adverts were stark.
In the latest video released this week, a tattooed Special Forces fitness trainer performed huge feats of strength in the gym, including deadlifting 500lbs raw.
The clip also showed the burly trooper lifting a heavy yoke over his shoulders, before he says to the camera: 'Stronger people are harder to kill.'
Viewers quickly compared the latest advert to one pushed out by the military in May 2021, during the Biden administration.

Current and former employees of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) sued Elon Musk and his cost-cutting operation, levying the novel argument that the world’s richest man should have been confirmed by the Senate before wielding such enormous power.
The Trump administration, Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have moved in recent weeks to stanch the flow of foreign aid, dismantle the agency responsible for administering it and dismiss thousands of people working for the agency at home and abroad.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) said during an interview that Sen. Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) final vote against Tulsi Gabbard, the newly sworn-in director of national intelligence, indicates that President Trump’s “cult” can be “broken.”
“Mitch McConnell breaking yesterday with his Republican colleagues telling the truth to power, indicates that maybe the Trump cult, the intimidation and threats can be broken,” Blumenthal said during his Thursday morning appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
“Our tools are limited. We’re in the minority. They control obviously both houses of Congress and the White House and indirectly the United States Supreme Court,” he added.

The House voted to crack down on high-speed chases near the southern border, marking the latest immigration-focused bill to be prioritized in the new GOP majority.
The Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act, named after a Border Patrol officer who died in the line of duty, passed the House in a 264-155 vote on Thursday. Gonzalez had been pursuing migrants on his all-terrain vehicle at the time of his death in 2022.
Under the bill, anyone who leads federal, state, or local police on a vehicle chase within 100 miles of the U.S. border would face up to two years in prison, a fine, or both.

FBI Director-designate Kash Patel cleared a Senate panel in a party-line vote Thursday, setting up a final confirmation vote next week.
All 12 GOP members of the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to advance Patel’s confirmation, while all 10 Democrats on the panel opposed it.
A former public defender, congressional aide and national security official in the first Trump administration, Long Island native Patel received firm backing from Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) for having undergone “rigorous vetting” and being committed to rooting out “political bias” at the FBI.

Longtime vaccine critic Robert F. Kennedy is now the nation’s top health official, after the Senate Thursday voted almost entirely on party lines to confirm him atop a department of nearly 100,000 employees that run 13 agencies.
The 52-48 confirmation vote brings to a close a contentious three-month confirmation fight that served as a significant test of the Republican Party’s loyalty to President Trump.
Only Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) cast a GOP vote against Kennedy’s confirmation, after previously bucking his party on Trump’s defense secretary and national intelligence director.

Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith (D) will not run for reelection in 2026, opening up a seat in the solidly Democratic state, she announced Thursday.
Smith said in a video posted to the social platform X that she has “loved” her job as a U.S. senator but wants to spend more time with her family, as she has four grandchildren.
“This job has been the honor of a lifetime. For the rest of my term, I’ll work as hard as I can for Minnesotans and our country,” she said in the post. “Thank you so much, Minnesota.”
Smith has served in her Senate seat since 2018 when she was appointed to succeed

Attorney General Pam Bondi personally removed newly installed large framed photos from a wall in the Justice Department of former President Joe Biden, former Vice President Harris, and former Attorney General Garland, sources confirmed to Breitbart News.
The removal of the images comes after President Donald Trump’s political opponents tried to imprison him, bankrupt him, assassinate him, remove him from the ballot, and make him politically irrelevant by introducing a partisan committee to investigate January 6.
