Customs and Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino speaks during a news conference at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal on Sunday. The move comes after President Donald Trump announced he was dispatching White House border czar Tom Homan to Minneapolis in the wake of Saturday’s fatal shooting. The White House has said Homan is expected to manage ICE operations in the city. According to one official, Trump spent several hours on Sunday and Monday watching the coverage and was personally unhappy by how his administration was coming across. But she said that Homan would be the “main point of contact on the ground in Minneapolis,” and Bovino would “continue to lead” the Border Patrol agency nationwide.
