Elon Musk has thrown his weight behind calls to deport a prominent Muslim streamer after the influencer cheered on a mass border incursion into Spanish territory, according to a report from The Gateway Pundit.
The streamer known as Sneako—born Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy in New York and a 2023 convert to Islam—drew fresh backlash this week for celebrating the arrival of thousands of military-aged men crossing into Ceuta, Spain, from Morocco. Video circulating online shows large groups of men pouring across the border, an event that has reignited heated debates over European immigration policies.
A Now-Deleted Post Spurs Musk’s Response
Sneako responded to the invasion Thursday with a post on X that read, ‘The rest of Europe next inshallah.’ The post was later deleted, but not before activist Drew Pavlou captured a screenshot and shared it with the message, ‘Sneako needs to be deported.’
Musk, who owns the platform, replied to Pavlou’s post with a terse suggestion: ‘He will be.’
It’s not the first time the Tesla and SpaceX CEO has called for Sneako’s removal from the United States. Earlier this month, Musk responded to a comment from Alex Jones with ‘Deport him NOW!!’—though that earlier exchange did not appear directly linked to a specific incident at the time.
‘New Yorkistan’ Comments Add Fuel
The latest deportation push comes on the heels of another controversy involving Sneako. Not long before the Ceuta celebrations, the 27-year-old streamer declared, ‘This is the Islamic Republic of New Yorkistan,’ while reacting to Egypt’s World Cup victory over Australia.
In a video that circulated widely, Sneako screamed ‘Allah Akbar’ and told the camera, ‘Islam will be in every household, Inshallah. The whole world is Muslim. Welcome to Mamdani’s New York.’ He went on to say, ‘You see this city? You see how it looks? Inshallah, your city looks just like this, too.’
Those remarks, along with the Ceuta comments, have positioned Sneako as a lightning rod in ongoing debates about free speech, immigration, and the influence of online personalities with large followings.
Background on a Controversial Figure
Sneako, who rose to prominence as a commentary and lifestyle streamer, converted to Islam in 2023—a move that has colored much of his subsequent public persona. His content frequently touches on religious, political, and cultural issues, often in provocative terms.
The streamer’s prior run-ins with platform rules led to bans on several social media sites, though he has maintained a significant presence on X and other outlets. His exact immigration status remains unclear, but the repeated calls for deportation suggest he may hold visa status that could be revoked.
Neither Musk nor Sneako has publicly elaborated on the deportation remarks beyond the initial exchanges. The Gateway Pundit, which first reported the story, noted that Musk’s comment came in response to Pavlou’s screenshot.
Broader Immigration Tensions
The Ceuta border incident itself has become a flashpoint in European politics. Thousands of men, reportedly all of working age, crossed from Morocco into the Spanish enclave over a short period, overwhelming local authorities and prompting criticism of the European Union’s border policies.
Sneako’s public cheerleading for such events—’The rest of Europe next inshallah’—has amplified the political stakes, drawing responses from both anti-immigration activists and those who defend the streamer’s right to free expression, however inflammatory.
For now, the deportation of Sneako remains an open question. Musk’s influence, both as a tech billionaire and as the owner of the platform where the dispute unfolded, could lend weight to the calls. But whether U.S. immigration authorities will act on them is another matter.
The Gateway Pundit’s report did not indicate any formal legal or administrative action has been initiated against Sneako as of this writing. The streamer has not issued a public statement addressing Musk’s latest comments.
