Shooting at its own: The United States will deport British far-right activist Milo Yiannopoulos — he has been actively calling for the expulsion of illegal migrants from the country.

According to the BBC, Yiannopoulos was detained in the U.S. state of Louisiana by officers of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service. He has been held in custody since Friday evening.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said that the 41-year-old Briton entered the country in 2019 and “decided to stay in the country beyond the permitted time, breaking the laws.” He also failed to appear at his immigration hearing.

Yiannopoulos worked as an intern for the former congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and managed Kanye West’s 2022 presidential campaign. The activist holds far-right views, supports ICE, and calls for “full legal immunity for agency staff” when they carry out their duties — arresting migrants. He has also urged the deportation of “millions and millions of people.”
