Trump Administration Doubles Down On Cruel 'Franklin' Posts Despite Publisher Criticism

The Trump administration isn’t retreating into its shell after the publisher of the beloved children’s book series “Franklin the Turtle” knocked officials’ “unauthorized” use of the cartoon reptile.

In a post to X on Thursday, the Justice Department urged “patriotic legal professionals” to apply to become “deportation judges,” adding that their work “will have generational consequences.”

The DOJ post included an illustrated cover of a fake book titled “Franklin Becomes A Deportation Judge” that showed the fictional turtle wearing a white wig and a judge’s robe and holding a gavel in his hand.

Last month, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth posted an apparently AI-generated cover of a book titled “Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists” on social media. The cover featured Franklin in a helicopter and apparently firing missiles at drug boats, making light of the administration’s boat strike scandal.
