The right-wing influencer that claimed responsibility for reporting TikTok star Khaby Lame to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this month has issued a new statement.
In a video shared online on Tuesday, 18-year-old Bo Loudon - who just so happens to be the best friend of President Trump's youngest son Barron - boasted about the Italian-Senegalese social media star's arrest.
Lame's apprehension by ICE officials on 6 June came just months after Trump announced plans for the 'largest deportation programme in history', as part of a 'complete restoration of America'.

The Republican also set up a goal for ICE officials to make at least 3,000 arrests per day by raiding workplaces for individuals allegedly having surpassed the limit of their visas.
It later emerged that, among those to have been intercepted recently, was Lame, who is best known for having the most followers on TikTok.
A spokesperson for the ICE confirmed that the 25-year-old had been detained for having allegedly overstayed his visa, after being picked up at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, having first entering the country on 30 April for the 2025 Met Gala.

Fans of Lame were later left wondering how ICE officials even caught wind of him being in the States illegally, a question that was later answered by Gen-Z online star Bo Loudon.
Earlier this week, Barron's BFF claimed to have had a part to play in the TikToker's arrest, telling his followers he'd heard from 'a few of his friends' and 'business partners' that Lame had overstayed his visa permit.
"I just called some buddies in the administration, and I’ve never seen anything happen so quick," Loudon told his followers on Tuesday.
"They were like, 'We’re gonna get right on this'."

Now, Loudon has spoken out about his decision once again during an appearance on Fox News.
"This was a situation where you had a guy who - kudos to him, he built a great following, he has a great platform, he's very influential across the world, he's the biggest TikToker," he began.
"But I had some guys from Dubai - a lot of his business partners and associates - that reached out to me and told me a lot of things about him that raised a lot of red flags.

"I didn't just take this to the media immediately, or post about it online, I did my own independent research, which I've done with many other things."
The teen went on to claim: "I was able to uncover a lot about him - evading taxes, coming to the country 50 times on a three-year expired visa - and he was given opportunity after opportunity to fix his wrongs.
"He was given until June 1st to self-deport and he wouldn't do it."

The Republic went on to claim: "I've had people calling me a rat for this - people calling me a snitch - but I'm trying to protect and preserve the American dream and that's all I did with this."
Loudon finished his statement by alleging he 'wishes' Lame 'the best of luck' in entering the country legally.
"But I can't say I'm done with Khaby. If there are other celebritries that are not in this country legally, I will investigate it, and I will happily go after them as well."
