ICE blasts 60 Minutes, alleging the deported Texas dad claimed to be gay despite having a wife and children

'You literally cannot make this up,' ICE posted on X after the CBS show aired. Moussa Diawara, 57, from Mali, overstayed a tourist visa and spent over two decades in the US. White House officials say he lied about his sexuality to win protection from persecution. 60 Minutes says his case rested on his conversion to Christianity in Muslim-majority Mali.

ICE agents detained the Uber driver after a night shift near Houston on July 11.

Diawara says Ghana forced him onto a flight to Mali, which a judge ruled unsafe.

His son Corey, 16, told the show: 'It feels really empty without him.'
