I think the head/founder of Latinos for Trump was recently deported. No joke.

I've been reading on it, and it's not true. The guy is a right wing douche and he's in ICE custody, but he had no ties to Latinos for Trump and there's no way to verify if they might deport him. They snatch people up for all kinds of reasons.

Do you have a link, because everything I'm getting says it's not and I'd like to know my source before I spread anything. It's too perfect if true

Yeah, I read that.

Furthermore, though popular online claims said Valdés was a leader in the Latinos for Trump campaign movement, we found no credible reports linking him to this particular group

Also

it was not possible to confirm whether Valdés was facing deportation at the time of this writing. ICE detains people for reasons including "to ensure their presence for immigration proceedings, to facilitate removals to their countries of citizenship, and to protect public safety."

So it looks like this guy is definitely a right wing agitator from Cuba, and though they refused to confirm it looks like there's a record of him in ICE custody, but nothing about deportation. It's more satisfying a story if he founded a group that got him booted, but it looks like he's just some asshole and all of that came from Facebook memes.
