It's also further demoralizing to the ICE/CBP terror cops because it shows them that the top guys will not have their back if they go hardcore enough, which I'm sure they understood to be the whole project here
it is both true that firing bovino doesn’t change a whole lot in terms of policy and also true that they have put a lot of money, time and effort into trying to make him the “never back down, fuck you, we own this place” face of the operation, and unceremoniously kicking him to the curb is a retreat
