You might be familiar with Leonel Moreno, the infamous TikTok “immigrant influencer”.
He’s the one who bragged about squatting in houses and flashing U.S. cash, has finally been deported to Venezuela.
He caused such a scene on the flight home, officials had to isolate him mid-air with extra security.
President Trump resumed deportation flights to Venezuela just in time for Moreno’s exit.
After landing, he gave a thumbs up—because apparently, shame’s not his thing.
Will he be able to find a well-paying grift in Venezuela to equal how much he was robbing from Americans? One can only pray.

New York Post reports:
The brazen “immigrant influencer” who infamously flashed around wads of US government cash handouts and encouraged other illegal border crossers to squat in American homes has finally been deported back to Venezuela — after causing uproar on the flight back.
Leonel Moreno, who encouraged illegal immigrants to “invade abandoned houses” in sick TikToks, was sent back to the narco state this week, after President Trump resumed deportation flights to the country.
Venezuela’s Minister of Interior, Justice and Peace, Diosdado Cabello, said Moreno was “welcome” back, however, the freeloading immigrant caused disruptions on the flight and upset his fellow passengers.
The firebrand TikTokker had to be placed in his own section of the plane with extra security to calm tensions.
It is unclear why Moreno caused a disruption or what he was doing.
After he stepped off the deportation flight, he flashed a thumbs up and received a pat on the shoulder from a security official escorting him off the plane.

Whoa, this illegal immigrant Leonel Moreno, besides home squatting he was also teaching others how to buy firearms. It's good that he has been arrested now by ICE in Ohio.

He illegally crossed the border under President Joe Biden in 2022 before making his way to Gahanna, Ohio.
Moreno previously taunted U.S. citizens and bragged about not paying anything for his daughter’s birth thanks to “Papa Biden.”
