Public Outrage Explodes, Border Patrol Leaders Leave Minneapolis, David Cay Johnston Joins 1/27/26
Published 4 months ago
Description
A retreat from Minneapolis. Customs and Border Protection commander-at-large Greg Bovino is leaving the city where his immigration sweeps left horror and death. ABC News reports Bovino will return to El Centro, California and back to his duties as chief of that sector. Homeland Security officials say Bovino "has not been relieved of his duties" as some reports have suggested and that he is a key part of Trump's team and a "great American." Despite the comments, the move is seen as a reaction to public outcry over the death of ICU nurse Alex Pretti
at the hands of Border Patrol officers and an indicator that the White House is feeling political pressure as a result.
We welcome Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston to talk about the fallout from violence in Minnesota and whether this may be a turning point for Trump's immigration policy plans.
Tech Tuesday brings Jefferson Graham to the show. We're talking Google and a payout after allegations they secretly recorded their customers.
