"Migrant Influencer Arrested by ICE for Encouraging Squatting"

Leonel Moreno, an illegal migrant influencer who mocked America on social media, has been arrested by ICE in Columbus, Ohio, after skipping out on immigration authorities. Moreno, a citizen of Venezuela, entered the US illegally in 2022 and failed to comply with the Alternatives to Detention program. He used social media to encourage illegal immigration and flaunted cash and government handouts, leading to the shutdown of his TikTok account. It remains unclear whether he will be deported or held in ICE custody due to strained diplomatic ties between the US and Venezuela.
