The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently acted upon information allegedly linked to Bo Loudon, the best friend of Barron Trump, concerning the popular TikTok star Khaby Lame. Loudon, an 18-year-old conservative social media figure and son of prominent conservative personalities, claimed his investigation prompted ICE to target Lame for immigration violations, including overstaying his visa and evading taxes.
Bo Loudon, known for his conservative influence online and relationship with the former President's son, told Fox News that he received information from international associates about Lame's legal discrepancies. His findings were then used by ICE to pursue the TikTok star, who boasts over 160 million followers, as part of the administration's deportation efforts.
"I had people from Dubai and some of his business partners reach out to me," explained Loudon in an interview. "I found he was evading taxes and had entered the country dozens of times on an expired visa. He was given many chances to fix things."
According to reports, Lame was given the option of voluntary departure by June 1 but reportedly did not comply by the deadline, as stated by Trending Politics. In contrast, a spokesperson for Lame denied the detention claims, labeling them as "fake news" in a statement to NBC News. Despite this, ICE confirmed Lame's voluntary departure after being stopped at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas on April 30.
The situation has placed Barron Trump indirectly in the spotlight due to his association with Loudon, who is the son of Gina Loudon, a conservative media figure, and John William Loudon, a former Missouri state senator. Prior to ICE's involvement becoming public, Loudon broadcasted via social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that Lame, whom he labeled a "far-left TikToker" and an "illegal alien," was in custody at the Henderson Detention Center.
Loudon's role extends beyond this incident, as he has been instrumental in connecting Barron Trump with young conservative influencers, thereby increasing the Republican appeal among Generation Z. His efforts include organizing significant streaming events with key figures like Theo Von, Adin Ross, and Joe Rogan.
"The Trump team works at LIGHTING SPEED!" Loudon exclaimed, celebrating the quick response from President Trump's administration after he alerted them to Lame's situation. Loudon has been vocal about his influence and endeavors, stating, "It was the honor of my life to be able to organize and attend the LEGENDARY stream between Rightful President Trump and my friend @AdinRoss. GEN-Z STANDS WITH TRUMP!"
This development has sparked a mix of reactions from various communities, with some applauding Loudon's vigilance and others questioning the implications of such direct involvement by individuals closely associated with political figures.
