Controversial right-wing provocateur and on-again, off-again Kanye West spokesman Milo Yiannopoulos is being held in ICE custody, The Post has learned.
The bombastic former Breitbart News editor was apprehended in Louisiana at an airport, according to TMZ, but the circumstances behind his detention were not immediately clear.
The 41-year-old Brit served as an unpaid summer intern for former US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in 2022, and worked on West’s stunt 2024 White House bid, serving as his director of political operations.
He famously arranged a sit-down dinner between President Trump and the “Heartless” rapper, which was also attended by white nationalist Nick Fuentes.
Yiannopoulos and West had a falling out in May 2024 after the hip-hop star announced he was launching an adult entertainment studio under his Yeezy brand.
The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a message from The Post seeking comment.
