Ex-Border Patrol commander Bovino exploring 2028 White House run
The former Border Patrol commander says he is exploring a run while attacking Trump’s immigration record and touting a hardline deportation agenda.
- On Monday, former Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino launched an exploratory committee for a 2028 presidential bid, NewsNation confirmed. Bovino, who led immigration crackdowns in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis, retired in March after 30 years of service.
- Bovino's tenure ended following the fatal shooting of Minneapolis nurse Alex Pretti in January. Video shows agents swarmed Pretti before shooting him 10 times, leading to Bovino's reassignment to California and subsequent retirement from the Department of Homeland Security.
- Bovino's campaign website, Bovino2028, features the slogan "Men Fight Back" and refers to immigrants as "foreign hordes." He seeks to challenge the "unbeatable" ticket of Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio touted by President Donald Trump.
- While Trump called Bovino a "pretty out there kind of a guy," he noted, "in some cases that's good." Bovino has since accused Trump of going soft, claiming he would lead deportation efforts from the front lines if elected.
