White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been facing heavy social media flak over her recent post celebrating the voluntary deportation of immigrants in America due to long-pending cases. The 28-year-old expecting mother was labelled 'demon' and advised to 'revisit the Christ' by social media users who were enraged at her being happy over immigrants 'losing hope'. While Leavitt is no stranger to criticism over her press briefing comments and social media posts, this sparks a buzz due to her touching on a currently extremely sensitive topic in the American social and political sphere.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Leavitt shared a link to a story reporting an increase in voluntary deportations by detained immigrants who were getting tired of long holds in facilities and jails that have been described by some detainees as 'appalling'.
