The Department of Homeland Security has confirmed the deportation of Milo Yiannopoulos, a British national who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after arriving at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport on August 27.
Yiannopoulos, 41, entered the United States in May 2019 and subsequently chose to remain in the country in direct violation of federal immigration statutes. DHS officials confirmed that the former Breitbart editor and political aide has been returned to his home country.
While Yiannopoulos has frequently advocated for strict enforcement of U.S. immigration laws and the necessity of mass deportations, his own status as an illegal alien ultimately led to his removal. Following his arrest, reports indicate he has been barred from re-entering the United States.
Yiannopoulos, who has maintained a controversial public profile through his commentary on various social issues, was previously associated with political figures including Kanye West and former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
His removal serves as a reminder that immigration laws apply to all foreign nationals, regardless of their political background or public platform.
