On July 31, 2026 the White House posted a TikTok video that paired ICE arrest footage with Bad Bunny’s song “La Mudanza,” overlaying a caption that praised President Donald Trump. The clip drew near‑million views and sparked criticism for repurposing a song by an artist who has publicly opposed Trump’s immigration stance.

Two days later, on August 2, the administration released a second TikTok video using the same Bad Bunny track and added a follow‑up video that featured Drake’s “Hoe Phase” alongside images of border patrol helicopters and detained migrants. Both videos employed pro‑Trump language and prompted further backlash from fans and commentators who condemned the use of the musicians’ work for political propaganda.
