No source names Wista Jean Kelly Charzales or reports his deportation on September 10, 2026. The sources cover Haitian deportation flights in general, such as the August 20 flight and weekly flights through September 17, so they neither confirm nor refute this individual's removal.

The host relays this claim without endorsing it. It counts as passed on, not against the post.

What was said

… What a great way to start the show today. This one comes to us from Fox's Bill Malusian. He says, "Remember the Haitian illegal alien gang member who went viral yelling, 'F Trump, Biden forever. I'm not going back to Haiti'? Well, he's gone back. DHS confirms to Fox that Wista Juins is that his name? Jean Kelly Charzales was finally deported back to his home country on Thursday, 19 months after his arrest. He was combative on the plane. He was combative to the end, which originated in Louisiana, and he made profane, threatening remarks about President Trump and his family while on board, per DHS. …

What we found

Context. Sources cover Haitian deportation flights generally, including an August 20 flight of 162 people and five weekly Cap-Haïtien flights from August 20 to September 17, but none names this individual.[1][2]

Context. The post says he was deported 'on Thursday' and was posted on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, so September 10 is inferred from the posted day. Sources published after the event, including a November 2 report of a Thursday flight of 101 people from Louisiana, do not mention him.[3][4]

Context. The extracted name is garbled in the post ('Wista Juins is that his name? Jean Kelly Charzales'), and no source confirms the full name, so the claim cannot be matched to a specific record.[5]
