British right-wing political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos detained by ICE

DHS said Yiannopoulos overstayed a visa he used to enter the United States in 2019 and faces a final order of removal.

  • Milo Yiannopoulos, a 41-year-old British political commentator, was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport for overstaying his visa, with a final removal order issued on July 22, 2026, after he missed an immigration hearing.
  • He legally entered the U.S. in May 2019 on an O-1 visa but overstayed and failed to appear at his immigration court hearing, leading to his detention at an ICE center in Louisiana.
  • Yiannopoulos is known for his far-right commentary and prior work with rapper Ye, formerly Kanye West, including serving as Ye's chief of staff and director of political operations.
  • He was present in Louisiana ahead of Ye's scheduled New Orleans performance.
