Valentine's Day Message for Imprisoned Maduro from the White House
The postcards, titled "Made just for you," humorously convey Valentine’s messages in a sarcastic tone.
The first card shows Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro blindfolded and handcuffed, hinting at his arrest by U.S. forces and the charges of drug trafficking that could lead to his trial in New York. The caption reads, “You captured my heart.”
Another card depicts President Trump holding a document titled "Executive Order 4547," with the Valentine’s message, “UR My Valentine.”
A third card shows Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen enjoying a margarita with alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. The card’s text reads, “My love for you is as strong as Democrats love for illegal aliens. I’d fly 1,537 miles to have a drink with you.”
In March, Garcia was mistakenly sent back to his home country to a prison, despite a 2019 court ruling that he would face danger if deported. He was later returned to the U.S. and put on trial for assisting undocumented immigrants.
Another Valentine’s card features a heart-shaped map of Greenland, referencing Trump’s controversial interest in acquiring the territory from Denmark. The card’s text reads, “It’s time we define our situationship.”
According to the New York Post, most of these satirical online posts from the White House were created by Trump himself, with help from Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Cavino and Deputy Communications Director Kaylan Dorr.
A White House official told the New York Post, “We are not bound by the traditional norms of what is acceptable in politics. We speak in the language of the people, and people like this kind of content.”
