In the scheme of things, Bovino is their

he goes nowhere, Noem and Patel can be replaced by people just as evil.

Would put up a sacrificial hench man and then keep rotating them out. It's not over. Homan is the man who brought America Child Separation.

A union representing over 800K federal government employees, AFGE, has demanded the resignations of both Noem and Miller, or their immediate firing if they refuse to resign.
