  "account": "British right-wing political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos has been deported from the United States to the United Kingdom. The 41-year-old, who was a former editor of Breitbart News and a political aide to rapper Kanye West, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after arriving at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport on August 27. Yiannopoulos, who had overstayed his welcome in the US, was released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Friday. The self-proclaimed provocateur, who identifies as gay, has been criticized for his advocacy of stricter immigration controls and controversial comments on various social issues. Despite being an early supporter of Donald Trump and a critic of the current US president, Yiannopoulos has called for the deportation of millions of people from the US. He has previously called for total legal immunity for ICE agents and advocated for the deportation of anyone who cannot prove their legal status in the country.",
