Yiannopoulos’s removal one day after his arrest, when many others who have been deported had first endured lengthy detention center incarcerations, has prompted questions about whether he received preferential treatment in that respect. Homan said the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which oversees ICE, was trying to speed up the deportation process.

    There is a story here. The administration would intervene for him if he was in their employ.

    Yiannopolous has always been a bit squishy on prez. I recall him repudiating him at certain points. He’s a massive piece of fucking shit and a total douche in his own right don’t get me wrong.

    But he pissed someone important off. He did call out some maga bigwig for banging young men in his hotel, while his wife openly cried about it in a hotel lobby, for 3 days if I recall. That could be the offense idk, and I don’t remember or care whom this maga douchebag is.

    I would like to know if there are any other reasons he could be now disfavoured, because if he was in ther employ to their satisfaction, this would not have happened. He did something that pissed them off.

      Supposedly it’s because of past work with Marjorie Taylor Greene. She’s kind of the leader of the MAGA turncoats, and he’s in her orbit, he’s vulnerable, they’re trying to pump up their numbers, and he made himself an easy target, so of course they can’t resist going for him.
