British far-right commentator Milo Yiannopoulos detained by ICE as a ‘visa overstayer’

British far-right political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after allegedly overstaying his visa. According to the Department of Homeland Security, Yiannopoulos entered the U.S. in May 2019 but failed to appear for an immigration hearing, leading to a final order of removal. He was arrested at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport and is currently in ICE custody. Yiannopoulos, known for advocating strict immigration enforcement, had previously supported ICE checkpoints and immediate deportation of undocumented individuals. His detention was reported by multiple outlets, including Fox News, which stated he was held in Alexandria, Louisiana. Yiannopoulos, who once worked with Marjorie Taylor Greene and Kanye West's 2024 campaign, has not yet commented publicly on the incident.
