South Park Mocks Trump Admin in Latest Episode, Portrays Noem as Botox-Loving, Puppy-Killing Tyrant

In the latest episode of South Park, the creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone mock the Trump administration, particularly Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Noem is portrayed as a Botox-obsessed, puppy-killing tyrant who leads ICE. The episode also ridicules JD Vance and depicts Trump offering Mackay the role of "new face of Homeland Security."

In the latest episode of South Park, titled "Got a Nut," creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone continue their satirical assault on the Trump administration. The episode, which aired on July 23, 2025, focuses on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, portraying her as a Botox-obsessed, puppy-killing tyrant leading Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The episode also ridicules Vice President JD Vance, depicting him as a Tattoo-like character from the classic TV series "Fantasy Island."

The episode opens with Mr. Mackay, a school counselor, losing his job due to cuts to the Department of Education. He subsequently joins ICE, where he witnesses Noem's controversial method of dealing with puppies, which she shoots in the face. The Noem character is shown throughout the episode, reinforcing her portrayal as a vain, Botox-obsessed figure who kills puppies and arrests anyone who is Hispanic.

The episode also features a storyline involving a fourth grader named Clyde who becomes a White nationalist podcaster, enraging Eric Cartman, the show's resident bigot. Cartman tries to outdo Clyde's offensive comments about minorities, women, and Jewish people. The episode culminates with Mr. Mackay and Clyde being rewarded with a trip to Mar-a-Lago, where they are greeted by Trump and Vice President JD Vance, both portrayed in white suits in a nod to Ricardo Montalban and Hervé Villechaize's characters from "Fantasy Island."

The White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers downplayed the episode, stating, "This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history – and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak" [1].

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem blasted the show, labeling the creators as "lazy" and "petty" for mocking her appearance. She stated, "It never ends, but it’s so lazy to constantly make fun of women for how they look" [3]. Noem added that she hadn't watched the episode but was too busy "going over budget numbers and stuff."

The episode also features a parody of the classic TV series "Fantasy Island," with Trump and Vance portrayed as Mr. Rourke and Tattoo, respectively. Mr. Mackay is invited to join Trump and Satan in bed, and he freaks out about the offer. The episode ends with Noem confronting Trump about replacing her.

The episode has sparked reactions from the White House and Noem herself, with the White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers downplaying the show's relevance and Noem labeling the creators as "lazy" and "petty." The episode is now streaming on Paramount+ [2].
