From Jan 1, 2025 to Nov 19, 2025, #ICE reported 261 #DACA recipients were #arrested & 86 had been removed from the country, acc/to Noem’s letter.
It said of those arrested, 241 had “criminal” histories, but did NOT provide further information, citing privacy issues [like they give a shit about that]. The senators demanded #DHS provide more info on the rationale for arresting & deporting #Dreamers.

Summoned into Judge Ellis’s courtroom, Bovino assured her that he would abide by her rules. In November, Judge #SaraEllis ruled that #Bovino had repeatedly #lied about the tactics of the #BorderPatrol & the actions of protesters.

His actions drew reprimands from a federal judge, #SaraEllis of the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, who imposed restrictions on #Bovino & federal agents under his supervision.
In October, Bovino was seen lobbing a tear-gas canister into a crowd of people in the #LittleVillage neighborhood of #Chicago without warning protesters.

That characterization was at odds with videos of the incident, which show that #BorderPatrol agents wrestled #AlexPretti to the ground, seized a weapon from near Pretti’s right hip, & shot him multiple times in the back.
#Bovino was also the face of the #immigration crackdown in #Chicago, often accompanying agents during raids & arrests around the city.
#Immigration agents under Bovino’s command fatally shot #AlexPretti, a #Minneapolis resident who worked as a nurse at the local Veterans Affairs hospital. #Bovino defended the agents hours after the shooting on Saturday.
“This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage & massacre law enforcement,” Bovino said at a news conference.
During his time in #Minnesota, #Bovino was often photographed wearing an Army green overcoat with big metallic buttons. Federal officials described the overcoat as part of a standard-issue #BorderPatrol winter dress uniform [though it is not officially listed as military issue], but the coat nonetheless drew widespread criticism online for its resemblance to uniforms worn by military officers in #Nazi Germany.

During stints in #LosAngeles & #Chicago last year, #Bovino rankled local officials by leading patrols of heavily armed men & by speaking dismissively about Democratic elected officials.
He spent several weeks in #Minnesota this month, where he was perhaps the most recognizable leader of the deployment of some 3,000 federal agents. Their activities have been met with fierce opposition from local residents.

“#Jewish history tells us that Jews fare poorly in societies that turn polarized, & where that polarization evolves into factional hatreds in the non-Jewish societies within which we live,” Rosen told the outlet.
#Bovino, a #BorderPatrol commander based in Southern California, became among the most visible figures in the #Trump admin’s aggressive #immigration crackdown in cities starting last summer.
Rosen, a commercial litigator, has kept a relatively low profile since he became the #USattorney in #Minnesota last Oct.
In an interview that month with an online news outlet, #Jewish Insider, Rosen said that one of his “primary motivations” for seeking his current role was the power it gave him to combat what he called the “rapid escalation of #violent #antisemitism” in the #US.

#Bovino’s comments raised judgment concerns, but also a potential legal dilemma for govt lawyers. Based on a 1972 #SCOTUS decision in a case known as Giglio, prosecutors have an obligation to disclose certain information to the defense that could call into question the #integrity & #character of a law enforcement officer who is involved in an arrest & called as a witness in a trial.
