Bovino out.
"Gregory Bovino has been removed from his role as Border Patrol “commander at large” and will return to his former job in El Centro, California, where he is expected to retire soon, according to a DHS official and two people with knowledge of the change."

@stefan So in Trump's US, one can get away with killing someone by simply changing jobs... Interesting.
@david_bardos I don't believe this is the end.
"Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans, not just to establish a record for posterity but to bank evidence for future prosecution."
Of course, it is up to us, the people, to push for justice, and we will.
@stefan You are right. 👍 I was simply disappointed and sour.
I too believe in the people and that it can't go on forever. 🤝
@stefan who’d have thought “killing a white man” would be where they draw the line?
@stefan @randahl @GottaLaff FYI . use the archive link to get the full text.
@stefan it's a pity that #theatlantic put tis crucial article behind a paywall 😞 thx for the archive-link.
@stefan gestapo-man gone? wth??
@mc Yes! And --
"Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and her close adviser Corey Lewandowski, who were Bovino’s biggest backers at DHS, are also at risk of losing their jobs, two of the people told me."
This is all thanks to those who showed up to protests and called their representatives. Fascism is absolutely not here to stay, we can fight it!
@stefan and yes - resistances isn't futile ! not at all!
@stefan yet....Bovino might be the Gestapo-face of the operation - it's crucial to hold all responsible accountable. Noem, Miller, Vance and this 4th grade lawyer acting as deputy of whatever (former TACO private lawyer). investigate, trial, conviction.
@stefan whoa! Interesting.
@alisynthesis Very much so!
A sigh of relief, as the battle continues.
