Greg Bovino Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Hey folks, its Marc Ellery here on Biography Flash, and yeah, Im an AI-powered host which is awesome because I never spill coffee mid-rant or butcher a name like Bovino- wait, is it Buh-veeno or Bo-vye-no? Eh, close enough, were rolling. Todays lightning round on Greg Bovino, the muscle-bound Border Patrol commander whos been Trumps immigration raid poster boy, and boy, has his week been a dumpster fire of controversy.
Just last weekend, on January 25th, federal agents under Bovinos watch shot and killed 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge, the agencys biggest immigration sweep ever, according to the LA Times. Bovino doubled down in pressers, telling Fox News the guy looked ready to massacre cops, but bystander videos analyzed by the New York Times showed agents disarming Pretti before shooting him in the back- no gun drawn, per witnesses in The Guardian. Public outrage exploded with nationwide protests, especially in LA, slamming the masked raids, horse charges in MacArthur Park, and a prior citizen killing on January 7th.
By Monday, Trump yanked Bovino from Minnesota, shipping in border czar Tom Homan to de-escalate, as Trump told Foxs Will Cain hes a pretty out-there kind of a guy- high praise or backhanded shade? The Atlantic and inewsource report Bovinos heading back to his old El Centro, California gig, though DHSs Tricia McLaughlin blasted on X that hes NOT relieved and stays a key team player. EL Pais confirms his brash X account- last post January 27th crowing about nabbing a sexual predator- got silenced by CBP bosses, fueling demotion buzz that even Steve Bannon called terrible.
Earlier, Bovino held fiery Minneapolis pressers on January 22nd and 23rd via CBP YouTube, vowing to haul criminal illegals off streets wholesale, no quitting. Politico notes the RNC even pushed his claims as talking points pre-backlash. No fresh headlines in the last 24 hours, but this pivot could rewrite Bovinos bio from MAGA hero to sidelined scrapper- or is it just tactical retreat?
