| Greg Bovino and his gang. |
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency commander is reportedly fired out the cannon. There is no true confirmation but the Department of Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem ordered him out of Minnesota.
Renee Good and Alex Pretti, two white U.S. citizens shot deas at the hands of Immigration Customs Enforcement drew the ire of state and federal lawmakers. President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance and the Administration have called them "domestic terrorists" and blames the left for the unrest in Minneapolis and St. Paul.
Greg Bovino, his days are numbered.
The departure of Border Patrol commander Bovino, who has been at the center of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration enforcement surge in cities nationwide, comes as Trump dispatched border czar Tom Homan to Minnesota to take charge of Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.
Homan is another controversial figure who will only stroke tensions.
The person familiar with the matter was not authorized to publicly discuss details of the operation and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.
Bovino’s departure marks a significant public shift in federal law enforcement posture amid mounting outrage over the fatal shooting of 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents. Criticism has increased around Bovino in the last few days after his public defense of the Pretti shooting and disputed claims about the confrontation that led to his death.
Citing a Homeland Security official and two other people familiar with the matter, Nick Miroff reported that Bovino has been removed from his commander post and will return to his former job as a border official in El Centro, California, “where he is expected to retire soon.”
Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin appeared to dispute the report, stating, “Chief Gregory Bovino has NOT been relieved of his duties.” However, she did not say that Bovino remains commander-at-large.
Noem and her senior advisor Corey Lewandowski (alleged paramour) could be fired out the cannon.
The president now sees concerns with these ICE crackdowns. He had to call Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey after the three had tensions.
Trump has a 34% job approval.
Immigration deportation is no where close to the numbers of his predecessor Barack Obama.
The status quo of white nationalist rhetoric like borders and illegal immigrants. Borders are imaginary lines designed to control colonialism. Countries can have borders to prevent invasive species from ports of entry. Human beings are not invasive.
The immigration crackdowns are a sad pathetic attempt to stop white men from declining in population. As the population increases, we are seeing more biracial, Latinos, Black, Hispanic and Asian births. Biracial children make nearly 20% of the U.S. population.
Trump and the boomer/Gen X generation are the biggest obstacles to progress right now.
People born between 1925 to 1979 are out of touch with reality. In their hey days, things were better for them. But thanks to the cultural revolution of cable and the internet, more Americans are now becoming open to learning more than English. We are becoming less religious. We are not concerned with other people's private lives.
Yet we are constantly indoctrinated with the beliefs that we must care what someone else does under the guise of morality. Freedoms are being lost to reactionary bullshit.
Learning how to adept to technology. Learning to be more innovative to cultural experiences.
Just being real about this, it will backfire and Republicans will end up losing a generation of voters.
