ICE Arrests Milo Yiannopoulos, Kanye West's Chief Of Staff, Over Overstay

ICE Arrests Milo Yiannopoulos, Kanye West's Chief Of Staff, Over Overstay

DHS says Yiannopoulos entered the US legally in 2019, then skipped his immigration hearing before a judge ordered him removed in July.

  • Yiannopoulos entered the US legally on May 14, 2019, via New York.
  • He missed his immigration hearing, and a judge ordered him removed July 22.
  • ICE arrested him Aug. 27 at Louis Armstrong airport, serving as Kanye West's chief of staff.

Why it matters: A removal order entered over a missed hearing shows deportation follows absence, not new evidence of crime.
