Barron Trump's friend had 'major role' in world-famous TikToker Khaby Lame's ICE detainment and deportation

A close friend of Donald Trump's youngest son Barron has spoken out on the recently-announced detainment of TikTok star Khaby Lame, claiming to have played a part in his arrest.

The social media personality's apprehension comes just months after the President announced plans for the 'largest deportation programme in history', as part of a 'complete restoration of America'.

Putting said plan into action, Trump recently ordered that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) ensure no citizens from a vast plethora of counties be permitted residence in the States - check out the full list here.

The 78-year-old also ruled that the department make at least 3,000 migrant arrests per day by raiding workplaces, shops and hospitality venues - an order that has since sparked mass protests across Los Angeles.

As part of these arrests, Italian-born online star Khaby - who is best known for having the most followers on TikTok - was detained for having allegedly overstayed his visa.

A spokesperson for the ICE told press that the 25-year-old had been apprehended at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, after first entering the country on 30 April.

It was also confirmed that he'd been granted voluntary departure, meaning he wouldn't have a deportation order on his immigration story.

Failure to avoid such a pardon could mean that visitors aren't permitted back into America for a year.

As we say, since news of Lame's detainment hit global headlines, many fans of his have been left wondering how ICE officials even caught wind of him being there illegally.

It turns out that someone especially close to the President is said to be behind it - right-wing Gen-Z influencer Bo Loudon, who just so happens to be BFFs with Trump's youngest offspring, 18-year-old son Barron.

Taking to social media, Loudon boasted about having reported Lame to the ICE, before sharing a screengrab from the department's website, where it declared that the TikTok was now being held at Henderson Detention Center in Nevada.

Barron's self-professed 'best friend' shared a clip of himself claiming 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.

"They were like, 'We’re gonna get right on this'."

He went on to wish Lame the 'best of luck', insisting he hopes the online star will be 'able to come back as a law-abiding citizen'.
