Bovino is not leaving Minneapolis cause he wants to. Not cause Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Vance or Trump want him to go.
He’s leaving because the extraordinary “ordinary” citizens of that great city - by peacefully protesting en masse - kicked him out.
Lesson to be learned. We have power.

So that Tom Homan guy they’re bringing in to replace Bovino in Minnesota? I wrote about him a while back when he tried to bully Boston’s Mayor Michelle Wu.

While glad to see Bovino humbled, I really don’t have any higher opinion of Homan—a cruel, cold, corrupt, calculating bureaucrat who’s devoted more of his career to mass deportation than almost anyone. He’s the architect of child separation.

The only difference between Homan and Bovino is that Homan understands that you keep the human rights violations out of public sight so people have plausible deniability to say “they didn’t know” later
CNN calling Tom Homan "well respected" and "not as hardline as Bovino" is an interesting choice. The dude took a $50,000 bribe in a fucking Cava bag and says all the same fascist shit as Bovino and Noem.

Notice how they can’t name a single clear violation that justifies 4,000 officers. Civil detainers aren’t mandatory, and “failure to share info” collapses into legally protected data like driver’s licenses. That’s not a crisis—that’s a pretext.
