https://www.rawstory.com/greg-bovino-2675035166/According to CNN's Priscilla Alvarez, "Gregory Bovino and some of his agents are expected to leave Minneapolis and return to their respective sectors."
This follows weeks of rising tension, protests, and clashes in the Twin Cities over escalated immigration enforcement by both Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which have increasingly been jockeying to fill the same roles and duties in the Trump administration.
The heightened enforcement operation caused national outrage with the fatal shootings of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, the latter of whom has even some Republican officials calling for the Department of Homeland Security to step back and de-escalate the situation.
Bovino has remained unapologetically in favor of the crackdown, sitting for an interview over the weekend that some observers described as an "Orwellian" defense of the agents who killed Pretti.

(22,060 posts)The public blowback saw Trump, 79, send his border czar, Tom Homan, to the city on Monday to oversee on-the-ground immigration enforcement operations, in a move widely seen as a snub to Homeland Security Secretary Noem, 54.
