Right-wing commentator Milo Yiannopoulos detained by ICE
BREAKING: Right-wing commentator Milo Yiannopoulos, a British citizen and longtime Trump and ICE supporter, has apparently been detained by ICE and is being held in Louisiana, according to the agency's records.
Milo Yiannopoulos, one of ICE's loudest cheerleaders, is now sitting in ICE detention.
The agency's own inmate registry shows the 41 year old British commentator being held in Louisiana. This is the man who posted last year, and I quote, total legal immunity for ICE agents when they're on duty. He's about to see that policy from the other side of the bars.
Quick refresher. Former Breitbart editor, one-time Kanye West employee, headlined Gays for Trump at the 2016 convention, and got himself uninvited from CPAC in 2017 over comments appearing to condone paedophilia, which he denied. He grew up in Kent, lives in the States, and calls himself the most fabulous supervillain on the internet.
Neither ICE nor Yiannopoulos is talking, so we don't know why he's in there or on what status. What we do know is where he is, because the government he championed wrote it down in its own records.
