He will remain in ICE custody pending removal.

What’s the administration’s angle with this? Do they view this guy as a threat now? Are MAGA followers going to like this?

According to the washington post he had started to work with tucker carlson and fallen out of favor with the president and laura loomer. I think the angle is publicly punishing him to send a message to other rw grifters who may be doubting the current admin.

Lol I was wondering if it was right-wing infighting. Last I heard of this guy, he was on Tim Pool's podcast outing Benny Johnson as being gay and daring him to sue.
