I wonder if they actually want Border Patrol Agents and ICE officers hurt. At this point, I've almost came to that conclusion. I's a sad fact, but they continually they continually banter that rhetoric around, and I've not heard anything on the suspects that we've arrested."
"He pointed to one aggravated felon who was arrested in Chicago yesterday, as part of an operation with DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who was walking the streets with immunity after just three years in prison on a firearms charge. Bovino said he would like to hear Pritzker and Johnson talk about guys like that more, rather than complain about the president."
Gregory Bovino, Chief Patrol Agent for U.S. Border Patrol in the El Centro sector, accused Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson of feeding and fomenting violence that endangers Border Patrol and ICE agents. He questioned whether their rhetoric encourages protesters to injure immigration agents and said repeated criticism of federal enforcement overlooks thousands of arrests. Bovino highlighted an aggravated felon arrested in Chicago who had served three years for a firearms charge and urged officials to focus on criminal offenders rather than attacking the president. He also criticized Oregon and Portland leaders for failing to coordinate with federal agents.
