White House incorporates Bad Bunny's anti-Trump track in ICE enforcement video
The White House released an immigration enforcement clip set to Bad Bunny’s song “La MuDANZA,” prompting backlash on social media.
A video produced by the White House depicting migrant arrests was paired with the Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny’s track “La MuDANZA.” After criticism, the clip was re-uploaded to TikTok without the music. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, is known for opposing President Donald Trump’s deportation policies. The artist’s earlier Super Bowl performance also carried a political message that Trump later denounced.
