(MENAFN- Live Mint) In a rather distasteful joke amid US President Donald Trump's deportation spree, the White House on Valentine's Day shared a“pink card” meme on its official X handle, warning the illegal immigrants.

In US immigration, a“pink card” informally refers to documents given to non-citizens in deportation proceedings, including Notices to Appear (NTA) or Orders of Supervision with reporting requirements.

Trolling the already dreadful migrants in the United States, Trump's White House posted a picture with a pink background adorned with hearts. It also featured stern-faced pictures of President Donald Trump and his border chief, Thomas Homan.

The picture read:“Roses are red, violets are blue. Come here illegally, and we'll deport you.”

The post was accompanied by a“Happy Valentine's Day” caption along with a red heart emoji.

ICE has stopped publishing daily arrest totals.
