After two U.S. citizens, Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, were fatally shot during the Trump administration’s immigration raids in Minneapolis in January, Greg Bovino was removed as the U.S. Border Patrol leader of those operations. Now, according to a USA Today’s Swapna Venugopal Ramaswamy USA Today, Bovino is lashing out at close allies of President Donald Trump for “pushing to dial back” on mass deportations.<\/p>\n

Bovino, on May 31, posted video of himself speaking at the Remigration Summit in Oporto, Portugal \u2014 where he argued that Trump needed “better advice” and criticized White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles for trying to “water down mass deportations.”<\/p>\n

“He also mocked Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin for not being up to the job,” Ramaswamy reports in USA Today. “Mullin was confirmed by the Senate in March to take over the position after Bovino’s former boss, Kristi Noem, was dismissed from her job as DHS secretary following controversy surrounding her spending and a federal contract.”<\/p>\n

Bovino also lashed out at Trump advisors in a May 30 post on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n

Bovino tweeted, “Trump’s team says immigration is his top issue according to the polls. Voters trust him on the border more than anyone. So why is @SusieWiles47 pushing to dial it back and water down mass deportations? You don’t win by running away from your strongest issue. Mass deportations are the solution to perpetual victory!”<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy reports, “Immigration detention numbers fell by about 15 percent from an all-time high in January of 70,766 to 60,311 by early April, according to newly released data. The drop follows high-profile, deadly enforcement operation in the Minneapolis area which resulted in the deaths of two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti.”<\/p>\n

In Sunday’s video, Bovino implied Mullin was not cut out for the job, mocking his family’s plumbing business\u2026. Bovino also tagged Chris LaCivita, a top Trump campaign manager, along with Wiles in a post on May 31 referring to clashes between agents and demonstrators outside Delaney Hall, an immigration detention center in Newark, New Jersey.”<\/p>\n

In the video, Bovino said of former U.S. Sen. Mullin (R-Oklahoma), “Mullin’s a great guy, great plumber, no doubt about that; he could probably fix a leaky faucet. But 100 million illegal aliens is not a leaky faucet.”<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy notes that according to a Pew Research poll released in April, 52 percent of adults believe Trump is doing too much to deport immigrants it says are living in the United States illegally.<\/p>\n
