Gregory Bovino gets demoted
SUMMARY
Gregory Bovino has been removed from his position as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will retire from his job in El Centro, California. This decision follows the shooting death of Alex Pretti by agents under his command. President Trump indicated a shift in tactics regarding mass deportations after this incident. Bovino, who rose to prominence for leading immigration crackdowns in Democratic cities, became controversial for his statements and tactics. Following Pretti's death, videos contradicted Bovino's claims about the incident. The future of Bovino's supporters, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, also appears uncertain.
