In an interview that aired Wednesday, President Trump told NBC News that a softer touch was needed in Minnesota, where citizens have clashed with ICE and Border Patrol agents in recent weeks."
"A representative from the establishment told the Daily Beast that the 55-year-old officer is no longer welcome there.

Gregory Bovino, former U.S. Border Patrol Commander-at-Large, was asked to leave Bottled Blonde, a multi-level sports bar on the Las Vegas Strip, after staff became aware of his presence and escorted him out for safety and order. He had been removed from his post in Minneapolis following fatal shootings of protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretti and was replaced by Tom Homan on Jan. 27. Bovino was filmed chugging wine with a group of young men and later photographed walking the Strip with them. Bottled Blonde said it does not engage in political activity and reserves the right to refuse service. A recent NPR/Marist poll found 65% believe federal agents have gone too far.
