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.”

They will indeed be a victim sooner than later. Some prophesies are just so doggone self fulfilling.
Someone needs to squash this bug.
These agents are the real victims. Do you know how much strain a finger must exert in order to pull a trigger?
And enough times to give himself repetitive stress injury, by the friggin look of it.
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.
Totally not a nazi or a sympathizer. No siree
Heard the little bitch ass half stack doesn’t like the terrorist nazi group of losers ice being called names, what a sorry ass sister fucking cunt- just like his merry band of nazi gimps
A narcissist is always the victim. DARVO is their natural reaction.
This asshole needs his dome capped.
Me and all my homies hate Nazis!
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…
The guy needs to be prosecuted and spend the rest of his life in jail, in isolation.
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 he’s not human.
Bovino should be in danger.
I have no idea why nobody is killing these people.
To be fair he’s a really small target.
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.
He’s going to wake up Charlie Kirked one of these days
God speed.
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.
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.
Murdered. Not killed, he was murdered. We all saw the video.
Is this the fabled victim complex they’ve always accused the left of having?
It’s always projection.
Always has been. Always will be.
Well, in a sense, I guess he’s a little bit right, because hopefully those fucks will eventually get vigilante justice’s.
But in terms of the narrative he’s trying to spin: eat shit, motherfucker.
Bovino has threatened the American people with his condescending and bullshit “choices” speech.
