Following a turbulent few weeks in the United States, South Park returned Wednesday with some fresh jabs at current events.
In the Season 27 episode ‘Conflict of Interest’, President Donald Trump accidentally puts the FCC‘s Brendan Carr through torture while trying to terminate Satan’s pregnancy after knocking up the fallen angel, as VP JD Vance convinces the POTUS that being a parent will ruin his life.
After slipping downstairs and getting poisoned, among other humiliating acts, Carr ends up in a body cast and a puddle of his own waste. “I’m afraid he may lose his freedom of speech,” the doctor warns of what will happen if the infection gets to his brain after being exposed to cat feces.
It was a particularly biting treatment of the FCC chair after Jimmy Kimmel Live! was temporarily suspended, following Carr’s warning about the late-night host’s Charlie Kirk comments.
Carr’s parade of humiliation on South Park comes as Kyle calls out Polymarket special advisor Donald Trump Jr. about an offensive online bet that wagers if his mom Sheila will strike Gaza, since she is Jewish.
“It’s not Jews vs. Palestine, it’s Israel vs. Palestine!” Sheila declares in a passionate speech before taking a trip to Israel to confront Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in person.
The up-to-date episode comes after the Comedy Central series took another week off, in addition to taking its recent episode that mocked Charlie Kirk out of circulation following his recent assassination. This season has also taken on Trump, ICE and Labubu.
