Greg Bovino slams Trump officials in Border Patrol exit Newly retired Trump administration immigration official Greg Bovino criticized leadership during his exit from the Border Patrol, accusing border czar Tom Homan and others of failing to act decisively. Bovino, who previously served as commander-at-large of the Border Patrol, led high-profile immigration raids in Los Angeles and Minneapolis. His tenure came under scrutiny after the deaths of two Minnesotans under his command, which led to his demotion. In a statement to NewsNation, Bovino referenced the killing of Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman, whose death was linked to a man charged with entering the U.S. illegally. He condemned the response from Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials, calling them “weak-kneed” and accusing them of inaction. “The Gorman family is burying their daughter this week, and liberal [CBP] commissioner Rodney Scott and capitulator Tommy Homan say and do nothing, which is how we got in this mess in the first place,” Bovino said. Bovino’s aggressive enforcement tactics, including the use of pepper spray against protesters, drew criticism. In two incidents, “less lethal” weapons left a protester blinded in one eye. The Department of Homeland Security and CBP did not respond to requests for comment. In an interview with The New York Times, Bovino expressed regret over not apprehending more migrants, stating, “I wish I’d caught even more illegal aliens.” He claimed that his team had pushed legal limits to maximize arrests. “We went as hard as we could, but there’s always a creative and innovative solution to catching even more,” he said. Bovino also made disparaging remarks about immigrants, calling them “filth” and “trash” during a speech in New Orleans.#greg_bovino #loyola_university #tom_homan #rodney_scott #customs_and_border_protection
