Milo Yiannopoulos, the controversial far-right political commentator who once worked for Kanye West, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an airport in Louisiana Thursday.
Yiannopoulos, 41, was apprehended by immigration enforcement officers at the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. In a statement on X, the Department of Homeland Security said Yiannopoulos, born in the United Kingdom, had legally entered the country on May 14, 2019, but overstayed his visa. A mugshot released by the agency showed a somber-looking Yiannopoulos looking at the camera.
