British political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos, a vocal Trump supporter, has expressed deep shame over backing the president after being arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and deported to the UK. ABC6 reported that Yiannopoulos was arrested at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport after failing to appear for his immigration hearing. The Department of Homeland Security stated he had overstayed his visa in violation of U.S. law.
Yiannopoulos claims he was never notified about his work visa requirements and received no warning before his arrest. He alleges that immigration officials sent warning letters to outdated addresses and failed to contact his attorney. Yiannopoulos also manages legal matters for Kanye West and has been a prominent conservative media figure.
Trump Supporter Turns Against President Over Deportation
Yiannopoulos's reversal marks a dramatic shift from his previous strong support for Trump. WLOS reported that the commentator now expresses regret about his political backing. His arrest and deportation appear to have fundamentally changed his view of the administration he had championed for years.
Arrested at New Orleans Airport After Missing Hearing
Immigration officials caught Yiannopoulos at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. Fox17 confirmed he had failed to appear for a scheduled immigration hearing. The arrest came after Yiannopoulos had reportedly overstayed his authorized time in the United States.
Claims He Was Never Warned About Visa Violation
Yiannopoulos disputes the government's account, stating he received no proper notice before his arrest. According to News4SanAntonio, he claims immigration letters were sent to old addresses he no longer used. He also says his lawyer was never contacted about the visa problem, leaving him unprepared for enforcement action.
Political Commentator Also Works in Entertainment Law
Beyond his commentary work, NewsChannel9 noted that Yiannopoulos manages legal matters for rapper Kanye West. This professional role added another layer to his U.S. presence. The deportation removes him from both his media platform and his work in the entertainment industry.
