Gregory Bovino has been removed from his position as commander of the Border Patrol. The Atlantic reports it, citing some sources, according to which Bovino – currently in Minneapolis – will return to his previous position in El Centro, California, and will retire shortly.
Bovino’s removal, The Atlantic adds, signals that the Trump administration is reevaluating its tactics following Alex Pretti‘s death. The controversial commander of the anti-immigration agents faced criticism over the weekend for declaring that the Second Amendment did not apply to Pretti.
Also according to The Atlantic, American National Security Minister Kristi Noem and her advisor Corey Lewandowski are at risk of their jobs after the incident in Minneapolis.
