A criminal alien who went viral on TikTok for encouraging other criminal aliens to squat in the homes of citizens has been ordered to be deported.

On Sept. 9th, an Ohio-based immigration judge ordered 27-year-old Leonel Moreno, a criminal alien from Venezuela, to be deported, various Homeland Security sources confirmed to the New York Post.

That’s the good news. The bad news is he’s unlikely to actually be deported. Why? Because earlier this year Venezuela stopped accepting deported criminal aliens due to a diplomatic row.

“President Nicolás Maduro’s authoritarian regime introduced the measure [the blocking of deported criminal aliens] after Washington reimposed some of the economic sanctions it had previously lifted on Venezuela,” The Wall Street Journal reported at the time.

Ever since Moreno illegally crossed into the U.S. in April of 2022, he’s been stirring up trouble by posting controversial TikToks.

After another criminal alien opened fire in New York City’s Times Square while resisting arrest for shoplifting, wounding a Brazilian tourist, Moreno rushed to his defense by urging his own 300,000 social media followers to unite and raise money for the alien’s release:

“I invite you to look for [his] mother and all of us join to pay the bail so that this young Venezuelan feels that you’re not alone in difficult times, but remembers that there is a God up there who sees,” he said in a TikTok video at the time, according to a translation by the Post.

“Today it could be him, tomorrow it could be you…He did something wrong, it’s okay. You don’t know when God is going to put you in a situation like the one this young man is in. We are going to unite forces so that this child is free and has an opportunity,” he added.

Moreno also used his TikTok account to encourage other criminal aliens to beg for handouts. In one video, he bragged about earning $275 from “three hours [of] asking for money at traffic lights.”

“[In the USA] everything is given away [if] you know how to look,” he said in the video, according to a translation.

Moreno is most notorious for encouraging other criminal aliens to exploit “progressive” squatter laws to “seize” uninhabited homes.

“I found out that there is a law that says that if a house is not inhabited, we can seize it,” he said in a previously recorded TikTok video. “As the saying goes, ‘Daddy, you have to look for the return,’ and the return right now is to invade house[s].”

According to the Post, Moreno has “also admitted to using his 1-year-old US citizen baby as a prop in his viral posts, one of which was taken at the hospital after his daughter’s birth.”

In the hospital video mentioned above, he bragged that he and his wife paid nothing to give birth to their daughter thanks to “Papa Biden.”

Critics who previously spoke with the Post were furious over Moreno’s behavior.

“Americans should be outraged to see how someone can come…and abuse the laws and benefits of America,” Daniel Di Martino, a Manhattan Institute fellow and a Venezuelan native, said.

“Sadly, he’s just one of many who are ripping off the taxpayer because of our own badly written laws that allow them to collect some welfare and take years to decide asylum cases that likely will be denied,” he added.

New York City Councilman Joseph Borelli, a Republican, agreed.

“This is exactly the type of attitude that is really helping the migrants win the hearts and minds of New Yorkers to their cause,” he sarcastically said.

“We absolutely don’t need to start importing criminals or boosting crowdsourcing campaigns to spring them from jail. The influencer better start warning his followers: don’t come to the United States to commit crimes,” Councilman Robert Holden, a Democrat, added.
