DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin denied the claims that Bovino had been relieved of his duties as Border Patrol ‘commander at large,’ which was first reported by The Atlantic
Border Patrol “commander at large” Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role and will return back to his old job in California, according to reports.
Bovino, who has been heavily involved in crackdowns on immigration across the country, will return to El Centro and is expected to retire soon, a DHS official and two other sources told The Atlantic.
It comes following the recent chaotic events in Minneapolis, in which two protesters have been shot dead by federal agents in less than three weeks. Renee Nicole Good was shot by an ICE agent on January 7 and ICU nurse Alex Pretti was killed Saturday.
They want us to forget about him so he’s not held accountable. If we hold him accountable then future people in positions like his might second guess their decisions.
Go retire from this mortal coil you gravy seals wannabe.
I prefer he be REVOKED instead of being allowed to retire. And I mean “revoked” here as in the court finds life itself to be in contempt of him and is ordered here forthwith to remain no closer than 500 yards from his body.
We as a country really need to bring back tarring and feathering, and maybe stakeburning…. If they can ignore the bill of rights so can we
/s
All I know is, thanks to how much this man is hated. I now know he was caught in the high school library jorkin it to a Nat Geo mag…
Probably millionaire at this point.
He will probably move to Brazil.
Oh no! The 1/3 Reich is leaving.
Hey Greg? Why don’t you go back to MN afterwards and walk the streets? See how much safer you must feel, how effective you were that you should put on your SS trench coat and go tour what is clearly just another US state. Should be fine no? I mean you made it safer there right?
Scum like Bovino don’t live with actual risk like the rest of us. The current admin will protect him. He is also wealthy already and after his exit can simply pay for ongoing security by jumping into the rightwing media grift machine. He will shit out a book, do some podcasts and the LEO conference speaking circuit, and never need to worry for his safety like the people he and his fascist organization have threatened and brutalized.
Unless he’s on some kind of regular protection I wouldn’t be surprised if someone in California takes it upon themselves to dispatch of this guy. Unfortunate that he (most likely) won’t ever stand trial.

Honestly, it doesn’t matter where he goes. His ren and stimpy face has been plastered everywhere smiling and sig hieling like an idiot.
Calling it now:
This is a bid from the GOP to convince Dems to fund DHS and stop the shutdown from happening.
And the dumb ass Dems might actually take the bait and pretend its a victory
Calling the democrats dumb like they don’t know exactly what they’re doing too is why the US is collapsing. They’re not dumb, they’re complicit. Always have been. The other side of the coin is still the same coin.
That’s exactly what they are going to fucking do.
And the dumb ass Dems might actually take the bait and pretend its a victory
Might? It’s almost a certainty at this point 😮💨
My understanding is that a shutdown would not stop ICE. They would not be part of that.
The Dems have made a list of demands about ICE, the DHS and Border Patrol, that ultimately amount to not even a wrist slap.
The GOP is refusing to move an inch on it.
The Dems are now threatening a shutdown if their demands aren’t met.
Now the Dems are colossal pussies, so they’ll likely capitulate again. That being said, Trump and the rest of the fascists know they took the bigger reputation L with the last shutdown, and they’re afraid of another.
Yes, but ICE and CPB are already funded, and would continue to operate during a government shutdown, unless I’m mistaken.
They got 200 billion last year.
This lets the complicit dems save face while still capitulating like they want.
Instead of “could retire” make it “will be jailed”
Jail is too nice
send his punk ass with that shit haircut to Argentina too, baby nazi bitch
Retire and leave the country
The apple is rotten to the core. Taking this sadistic MF out isn’t going to fix anything when they’ve given all the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys badges and paychecks.
I hope he lives long enough to stand trial once a same government reemerges. Would love to see this fucker prosecuted and standing before a firing squad.
He won’t. The border patrol has killed hundreds of people over the years and it’s not going to suddenly start mattering anytime soon.
Only reason we know this dude is because he’s especially stupid about it, just like his boss.
You hang them like common criminals, you don’t shoot them like soldiers:
Göring made an appeal asking to be shot as a soldier instead of hanged as a common criminal, but the court refused.
To paraphrase my betters, I would never wish a man dead but I long to read this fuckers obituary. Ah, who am I kidding. I’m wishing as hard as I can for more than a few of these guys shuck their mortal coils.
You think these dems will take it back?
Perhaps they will, but they certainly wont use what they are given.
