Trump shakes up immigration crackdown leadership
The administration of President Donald Trump is shaking up the leadership of its immigration crackdown in Minneapolis by pulling its director of on-the-ground enforcement, according to two U.S. officials, as federal agents face growing criticism for their heavy-handed tactics in the city, New York Times reported.
The expected departure of Gregory Bovino follows outrage over the killing of Alex Pretti, who was shot and killed by federal agents at a protest against the administration’s immigration crackdown over the weekend. President Trump said on Monday that he was sending Tom Homan, his border czar, to oversee Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations in Minnesota. Trump said Homan would report directly to him.
