The DHS, which handles deportations, included a clip of Von in a 31-second video on its social media. In the clip, Von says, “Heard you got deported, dude—bye.” The video also features President Donald Trump boasting that people “simply stopped coming.”
Furious, Von took to X, formerly Twitter, to condemn the video. He wrote, “Yooo DHS i didnt approve to be used in this. I know you know my address so send a check. And please take this down and please keep me out of your ‘banger’ deportation videos.”
Von, who has hosted a wide variety of guests from different political backgrounds on his podcast, This Past Weekend, added that his personal views on immigration are “alot more nuanced than this video allows.”

The comedian is also set to star in a new comedy film called Busboys, which he co-wrote with actor David Spade. The movie’s logline describes the story of two friends living in an Arizona border town who believe becoming waiters will solve their problems, only to find out they are wrong.
