Gregory Bovino applauded his agents’ actions in Minnesota, despite one citizen being killed by agents.
Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino on Sunday said his Customs and Border Patrol agents are “the victims” after they shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti in Minnesota. In an interview with CNN’s “State of the Union,” host Dana Bash pointed out that Bovino had repeatedly referred to Pretti as a “suspect” as he defended CBP’s training and de-escalation tactics.
“With respect, it feels as though in some ways you’re blaming the victim here,” Bash said.
Bovino replied, “The victim? The victims are the Border Patrol agents. I’m not blaming the Border Patrol agents. The suspect put himself in that situation.”

Bovino should be in danger.
He’s going to wake up Charlie Kirked one of these days
I think you’re probably right if what you mean is he’s going to be killed to further inflame tensions. Somewhat tangential, but I’d also be scared if I was Usha Vance.
I have no sympathy for any of these profligate whorechildren, fuck the lot of em.
She could just reupholster herself in a nice neutral pleather, like Erika Kirk did. She’ll be fine.
Remind us how many times you voted for Trump.
That question doesn’t make sense. Did you respond to the right comment?
thats why he surrounds himself with all the brownosers.
Greg ‘The Cow’ Bovino applauding the killing of an innocent US citizen by the feckless slobs under his command
Hey don’t dis cows like that.
I have no idea why nobody is killing these people.
They are extremely well funded. Literally more money than most countries’ militaries.
And less trained than your local boy scout troop.
Don’t fall for this narrative, so far the ICE murderers have had an average of 8 years of experience each.
My point stands.
True, especially if you include the
ROTCCub Scouts.Also, FYI it’s just called Scouting now because they accept everyone and aren’t hamstrung by the same troop-ruining insurance agents and greedy capitalist pigs that ruined Girl Scouts.
Yeah I heard they were getting their shit together in the last couple decades. Good for them.
200 billion in the bank. Minus what they spent this year, but I think they are cutting them a new check as we speak. Extracting money from the government is the reason for being for most of congress, most of the executive too for that matter.
Only China and the US spend more than 200 billion on their militaries. These guys will bankrupt the country and de facto default by printing money before they are out of there I fear.
To be fair he’s a really small target.
Murdered. Not killed, he was murdered. We all saw the video.
And after murdering him, and Alex Pretti’s body lay on the street, they stood back and shot him 5 more times.
Is this the fabled victim complex they’ve always accused the left of having?
It’s always projection.
Always has been. Always will be.
Totally not a nazi or a sympathizer. No siree
Edit:
Nice
Looks like he’s wearing Daddy’s jacket
Well, it certainly looks like his much larger father or grandpa was one.
🔥
Just a fan of Hugo Boss… and Nazis
I’m gonna go against the grain here and say we should stop calling them nazis. Miller, Bovino, they all wear that comparison as a badge of honor, and it’s clear their supporters don’t mind in the slightest.
These guys are just fucking losers. Full of hate, finally finding an outlet. We have to fight them, but I also pity them.
Sorry I’m gonna call a spade a spade. They can be proud of the moniker but everyone else in the civilized world knows it’s not a badge of honor.
They are losers. They are also nazis.
Nazis were proud of being called Nazis. People still called them Nazis.
fucking losers.
Full of hate
finally finding an outlet
So, Nazis.
A badge of honor? I’m surprised they haven’t made it a hate crime.
They like acting like Nazis and rubbing it in other people’s faces, but they will always pull out the victim card when you call them out on it. That’s part of the thrill for them.
Like being pedophiles. We all know it. They know it. But it’s violent to call the lovers of freezepeach pedophiles just because they commit acts of pedophelia.
Miller/Noem/Bovino/Trump anytime anyone tries to ask why ICE keeps killing innocent people: “Don’t commit your hate crimes here! Hate crime!!!”
This asshole needs his dome capped.
I did not previously have that opinion, but his statement here is indefensible.
there is no place in society for this man.
He is despicable. That he was allowed to rise in government to hold that position of power…
Me and all my homies hate Nazis!
The guy needs to be prosecuted and spend the rest of his life in jail, in isolation.
He looks like Nazi-Skeletor in that picture.
Hey don’t besmirch the name of Skeletor. He would never be a racist piece of shit. Skeletor was an equal opportunity employer.
He looks like he just opened the Ark of the Covenant.

I’ll give you some help with that trend right now
As much as I wish this were true, the yearbook listing him as “Most Likely to Shit His Pants in Public” casts doubt on the entire thing. That’s not something a high school yearbook would do.
There’s no way this is true. You fell for a hoax.
Fuck this dude with a road salt rusted brake pad…
Barbed wire and a poly pipe
A soldering iron
with the clip rusted on
Dude isn’t even a political appointee. He’s a regular old career civil servant (GS-15 to be precise) who pretends he’s far more important than he is. He is a walking hatch act violation and I hope he eventually rots in prison and loses his pension.
If Abercrombie & Fitch had a tacticool line of clothing, Bovino would be the photoshoot model. I can smell the cologne and teenage insecurity through this photograph even though by all appearances this is a fully grown adult man.
“short people got no business…” -Randy Newman
I just watched One Battle After Another and holy shit does little bovino remind me of Penn’s character.
100%, it’s like it’s an archetype, I guess it is.
GET THOSE “VICTIMS” OUT OF THERE!
Such an easy solution.
Someone needs to squash this bug.
Reverse victim and offender.
Bovino needs to be deported from earth. To the sun, to mars, to hell, I don’t care but he doesn’t belong here and society is better off without him.
a bullet is a hell of a lot cheaper than some vessel launched into space just saying.
But think of the footage of him going crazy as he’s floating in space shitting himself. If the US does the right thing eventually everyone should get a treat. Plus it solved the whole future nazis worshipping his grave problem. Hell send trump’s corpse with him.
