ICE agents arrested Milo Yiannopoulos at New Orleans airport on Thursday. DHS officials say that he will be deported to Britain for overstaying the visa, and marked the occasion by posting his mugshot online.

The deportation marks a remarkable fall from grace for a man who, at his early 2017 peak, held Mercer family patronage, a Simon & Schuster book contract, a Breitbart pulpit and a CPAC speaking slot. His career arc is like a compressed version of the online Right's own evolution, and his removal from the country is the logical endpoint of the process.
