DHS suspends Bovino's access to his social media accounts, source says
From CNN's Priscilla Alvarez and Michael Williams
The Department of Homeland Security has suspended border patrol official Gregory Bovinos access to his social media accounts effective immediately, according to a source familiar with the matter.
Bovino would use one X account, @CMDROpAtLargeCA, to post multiple times a day, trolling his critics, sharing mugshots of immigrants his officers arrested, and publicizing his own appearances at press conferences and on cable news.
Over the weekend, Bovino had scrapped with lawmakers and others online, responding to their posts on X about the shooting of ICU nurse Alex Pretti. In several recent posts to social media, Bovino had accused Pretti of assaulting federal law enforcement officers before he was killed a claim that is not supported by video of the moments leading up to his death.
Bovino is expected to depart Minneapolis tomorrow, and President Donald Trump said he is sending border czar Tom Homan to lead the operation there.
