Milo Yiannopoulos was deported by ICE after his former ally Laura Loomer claimed credit for turning him in, exposing how right-wing factions are now using government enforcement to settle internal disputes. The incident reveals a troubling pattern where influencers with access to Trump are weaponizing state power against their enemies.

• Loomer publicly boasted about siccing ICE on Milo over a visa overstay, suggesting she used her Trump connections to orchestrate the deportation as retaliation in a MAGA factional split
• Loomer previously met Trump in the Oval Office in April 2025 and urged NSC staff purges; at least three senior officials were fired the next day, establishing a track record of her influence over personnel decisions
• The article warns this pattern signals broader danger: as factions jockey for position in Trump succession planning, expect escalating doxxing, lawfare, and kompromat releases among allies-turned-enemies
