Former Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos, a United Kingdom national, was arrested by ICE agents at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in Kenner, Louisiana. DHS said he legally entered the U.S. through New York City on May 14, 2019, but overstayed his authorized stay. An immigration judge issued him a final order of removal on July 22 after he failed to appear for his immigration hearing, and he is being held at an ICE facility in Alexandria, Louisiana pending removal.
