Bovino was removed from the role of commander and returned to his position as CBP sector chief in El Centro, California, after leading aggressive immigration enforcement operations.
Gregory Bovino, the U.S. Border Patrol head who became the face of President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, will retire at the end of the month, two Customs and Border Protection officials told NBC News.
Bovino was removed from his role as CBP commander at large in January and returned to his role as Border Patrol sector chief in El Centro, California. The move came after the deaths of two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and aggressive immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis, Chicago and Los Angeles.
His exit coincides with the date Donald Trump announced would be Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s last day in the job. In Bovino’s position as commander, he reported directly to Noem and her senior adviser Corey Lewandowski.



Not good enough!
He was patrolling the southern border in Minneapolis. They should send him on one last deployment. And send him to patrol the southern border in Antarctica. Then forget to bring him home.
What? So he can tear gas the penguins?
Send him to the North Pole. He might give a polar bear some indigestion, but that’s acceptable.
Forget who?
Exactly
This gets in my craw as he is just barely older than me and going to have a nice retirement while im whittling away savings and wonder if I will lose my home. Don’t go to college kids its a dead end.
No, the problem is that you don’t try to fuck over your fellow Americans hard enough.
