Bovino’s future in doubt as White House walks back initial claims about Alex Pretti – US politics live

AI Summary

long article 5 min

Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino is expected to leave Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal immigration agents. Bovino, a prominent figure in the administration's immigration enforcement in Minnesota, has faced criticism amid the shootings. Initial claims by administration officials, including accusations that Pretti was a "domestic terrorist," are being walked back after video footage emerged. While reports suggested Bovino was stripped of his title, the Department of Homeland Security denies this. President Trump spoke with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, agreeing to consider removing federal agents from the state and allowing an independent investigation into the shootings, including the earlier death of Renee Nicole Good.
