You might want to look away now, Donald Trump.
South Park kicked off its 27th season on Wednesday night with an episode that expectedly took aim at the US President in a series of X-rated gags, one that saw him in bed with the literal devil.
The episode, which aired hours after South Park co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone signed a new five-year overall deal with Paramount, addressed the network giant's recent dealings with Mr Trump that saw him receive a $16m settlement, among other issues.
One clip shows the president complaining about the size of his manhood in an official painting.
He then goes to his bedroom, undresses and gets into bed with Satan, suggesting he wants to have sex.

'Come on Satan, I've been working hard all day,' begs South Park's depiction of Mr Trump.
'You haven't been working! You've been doing your stupid memes and just f**cking around,' replies Satan.
The character then insists, saying: 'Come on Satan, you know you can't resist this!' before pulling down the duvet and revealing a comically small penis.
'I can't even see anything, it's so small,' laughs Satan in response.
During the same scene, Satan confronts the Trump character over rumours that his name appears on the notorious, and disputed, 'Epstein list.'
'It's weird that whenever it comes up, you just tell everyone to relax,' Satan says, adding that the Trump character reminds him a lot of someone else he used to date.
In South Park's first movie, released back in 1999, Satan is seen in a romance with late dictator Saddam Hussein.

Fans rushed to remark on the episode, with one tweeting: 'Trump's meltdown coming in 3… 2… 1…'
Another joked: 'I think Paramount paid Trump ahead of time knowing this sh*t was going to drop.'
While a third laughed: 'Oh, lawsuit incoming!'
Near the end of the episode, a scene also shows Jesus pleading with townsfolk to stop messing with Trump following the controversial cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
As a result of his pleading, and in a move that echoes Paramount's settlement with the president, the town settles Trump's lawsuit with them for $3.5m, before also agreeing to also produce pro-Trump material.
The release of the episode came hours after South Park co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone signed a new five-year overall deal with Paramount that is thought to be worth more than a billion dollars.
That deal followed a behind the scenes legal battle between creators Park County, Paramount Global and Skydance, the latter of which is set to take control of Paramount in just a few weeks.

Paramount, the parent company of CBS, is on the brink of merging with media company Skydance in coming months, but the merger has been plagued by controversy after Trump's defamation lawsuit last year, in which he accused CBS's 60 Minutes of broadcasting a misleading interview with Kamala Harris before he was elected president for a second time.
'This merger is a shitshow and it's f**king up South Park. We are at the studio working on new episodes, and we hope the fans get to see them somehow,' Parker and Stone wrote in a social media post on July 2, after Comedy Central announced that the season 27 premiere had been pushed back.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, in June the duo also threatened legal action against incoming Paramount president Jeff Shell for allegedly interfering in contract negotiations with potential streamers, such as Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix.
But the high-stakes negotiations were soon back on track, with Paramount agreeing to a five-year term rather than a 10-year deal proposed by Parker and Stone. Skydance signed off on the transaction.
South Park first debuted on 1997 and has since released more than 300 episodes.
The series has also won a slew of awards, including five Emmys for Outstanding Animated Program.

‘Frosty on Trump': Australians eager for more independence from the US

Australians are voicing a strong desire for the country to assert more independence from the United States amid Donald Trump's turbulent presidency, with most voters saying they do not blame Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for failing to secure a meeting with the US President. The latest Resolve Political Monitor survey of more than 2300 people, conducted for this masthead, found that most Australians continue to have strongly negative views of Trump six months after he re-entered the White House. Fewer than one in five Australian voters believe Trump's election was a good outcome for Australia. When asked whether it would be a good or a bad thing for Australia to become more independent from the US on foreign policy and national security, 46 per cent of respondents said they believed it would be a good thing, compared to 22 per cent who said it would be a bad thing. When compared along political lines, 56 per cent of Labor voters said they supported Australia adopting a more independent foreign policy and just 12 per cent opposed the idea. Coalition voters were evenly split, with 34 per cent favouring more distance from its closest security partner while 35 per cent said it would be bad to become more independent of the US. Since returning to the White House, Trump has imposed a 10 per cent tariff on all Australian goods, as well as a 50 per cent tariff on steel and aluminium imports. The Trump administration has also called for Australia to dramatically increase defence spending to 3.5 per cent of gross domestic product, while launching a review into the AUKUS nuclear-powered submarine pact. Since his re-election, Albanese has stressed the importance of Australian sovereignty and said his government would not commit to joining the United States in a hypothetical war with China over Taiwan.

Two Aussies were on-board aid ship allegedly intercepted by Israel

Don't miss out on the headlines from Breaking News. Followed categories will be added to My News. Two Australians were on board an aid boat in a bid to challenge the blockade of Gaza when it was allegedly intercepted by Israeli troops. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition said there were 21 people on board the 'Handala' ship, which was stocked with baby formula, diapers, food and medicine, when it was intercepted early on Sunday morning (AEST) about 75km from Gaza. Two Australians, Robert Martin and Tan Safi, were reportedly on board the ship when it was allegedly intercepted by the Israel Defence Forces. Pre-recorded videos of both Mr Martin and Ms Safi were shared to Freedom Flotilla's X pages, alleging they had been intercepted at sea. 'I appeal to my comrades, friends and family, to everyone, to put pressure on your country, Australia, of my country, to demand my release, and the release of everybody on board the 'Handala' as soon as possible. Thank you,' Mr Robert said in the video. An Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade spokesperson confirmed two Australians were on-board the boat, The Guardian reported. NewsWire has contacted DFAT for comment. Two Australians, Robert Martin and Tan Safi, were reportedly on board the ship when it was allegedly intercepted by the Israel Defence Forces. Picutre: Freedom Flotilla/X. The Israel Foreign Ministry said a vessel had been stopped from 'illegally entering the maritime zone of the coast of Gaza' in a post shared to X. 'The vessel is safely making its way to the shores of Israel. All passengers are safe,' the statement read. 'Unauthorised attempts to breach the blockade are dangerous, unlawful, and undermine ongoing humanitarian efforts.' It comes after Anthony Albanese said he believed Israel has 'quite clearly' breached international law through its treatment of innocent civilians in Gaza, but will not follow French President Emmanuel Macron and formally recognise a Palestinian State when he heads to the United Nations General Assembly in September. Anthony Albanese said he was personally heartbroken over the photos coming out of Gaza, with the death toll from starvation and malnourishment increasing.

Picture: AP Photo/ Jehad Alshrafi This follows global condemnation of Israel for restricting aid to civilians trapped in Gaza, with health authorities reporting 123 people have died of starvation and malnutrition. The Israeli military has since said it will begin aid airdrops, and establish humanitarian corridors for United Nations convoys to allow for the delivery of food. Speaking to ABC on Sunday, the Prime Minister said he was heartbroken by the images of starving children coming out of Gaza. While he welcomed the resumption of aid as 'a start,' he reiterated the condemnation of civilian deaths as 'completely unacceptable' and 'completely indefensible'. 'This is a start, but we need to make sure that people who are innocent … including the young boy who people will have seen that image of just breaks your heart, a one-year-old boy is not a Hamas fighter,' he said. When pressed, Mr Albanese also said Israel's actions are 'quite clearly' a breach of international law, given 'international law says that you can't hold innocent people responsible for what is a conflict'. 'I'm a supporter of Israel and Israel's right to defend itself, but that boy isn't challenging Israel's right to existence, and nor are the many who continue to suffer from the unavailability of food and water,' he said. Mr Albanese said Israel had 'quite clearly' breached international law through its treatment of innocent people. Picture: NewsWire / Martin Ollman However, Australia will not follow France, who has become the first large Western power to confirm it will formally recognise Palestinian statehood at the UN General Assembly, joining about 75 per cent of member states. Mr Albanese said that, while Australia 'will make a decision at an appropriate time,' there needed to be more detail on how a Palestinian state would function before he was comfortable making that commitment. 'How do you exclude Hamas from any involvement there? How do you ensure that a Palestinian State operates in an appropriate way which does not threaten the existence of Israel?' he said. 'And so we won't do any decision as a gesture. We will do it as a way forward, if the circumstances are met.' Coalition foreign affairs spokeswoman Michaelia Cash criticised Mr Albanese for not putting more blame on Hamas and its continued refusal to release hostages taken on October 7, 2023. However, Mr Albanese has made repeated comments calling on Hamas to release the hostages, and has reiterated his condemnation of the terrorist organisation. Senator Cash added that while the statement said that Australia wants to 'to see the end of the war in Gaza,' the 'next sentence should have been: 'And we call on the terrorists Hamas, who commenced this war and who are ensuring the suffering of the civilians in Gaza to end this war tomorrow''. 'Does Israel have a moral responsibility? Yes. Should Israel be getting more aid in to civilians in Gaza? Absolutely,' she said. 'And I call on the Israeli government to work with the international agencies to get that aid to the civilians but let us not be blind … to the reality.' Foreign Minister Penny Wong was asked on Sunday afternoon whether Australia was obligated to act given Mr Albanese had said Israel was breaching international law. 'The Prime Minister made out position clear this morning, it is forbidden to withhold aid from civilians, that is not consistent with international law,' Ms Wong said. 'But actually, as importantly, it's morally the wrong thing to do, it's ethically the wrong thing to do.' Originally published as Two Aussies were on-board aid ship allegedly intercepted by Israel
