A British far-right provocateur who was shackled and deported by ICE over the weekend has revealed his bank balance in a bizarre social media move.
Milo Yiannopoulos, who repeatedly cheered on ICE during Trump’s brutal second-term migrant crackdown—including declaring on X that the “Justice system should be just ICE”—was detained last Friday after overstaying a visa and deported the following day.
On Wednesday, posting from the U.K., the 41-year-old British commentator shared a screenshot of a Wells Fargo Premier account containing $4,923,630.64. “Just for the sake of argument,” he wrote.
He appeared to be joking about almost being able to afford the Trump Platinum Card, a proposed luxury visa concept that would cost $5 million and allow foreign nationals to stay in the United States for up to 270 days a year without paying U.S. taxes on foreign income.

Yiannopoulos, a former Breitbart News editor, suddenly did a 180 on his devotion to Trump after he was booted from the U.S. Speaking on Piers Morgan Uncensored, he said he was “ashamed” of the president and that “the promise and hope and joy and the anticipation of Trump 2016” had “collapsed into this ugly, warmongering, mentally ill heap of crazy.”
Yiannopoulos was a leading figure in the extremist “alt-right” movement, which was hugely influential in helping Trump win his first election in 2016.
Yiannopoulos also described to Morgan how being detained by ICE officers in the U.S. was “humiliating and disorientating,” “physically degrading” and “frightening.”

“I didn’t really understand the physical reality of how institutionalized the brutality is in America,” Yiannopoulos said. “It’s like everybody that’s arrested is an MS-13 gang member, and it hurts a lot more than it looks like on television.”
Milo Yiannopoulos was booted from Breitbart after videos of him condoning pedophilia emerged.

ICE detained Yiannopoulos at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in Kenner, Louisiana, ahead of a New Orleans concert by Kanye West.
Yiannopoulos previously worked for the rapper, who legally changed his name to Ye, during the artist’s long-shot 2024 presidential bid.
Yiannopoulos has also worked as a congressional intern for MAGA exile Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Yiannopoulos had long expressed support for hardline immigration policies, posting on X in June that California needs “ICE checkpoints at supermarket entrances, gas stations, strip malls, intersections and government buildings, with on the spot deportation for anyone who can’t prove they are in the US legally.”
