Greg Bovino, face of Trump’s mass deportation campaign, to retire after controversial Minneapolis raids
Greg Bovino, the U.S. Border Patrol commander who became the face of the Trump administration's mass deportation campaign before he was reassigned from his leadership role amid controversial immigration raids throughout the country, will retire.
Bovino was removed from his role as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) commander at large in January amid the deaths of two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, in Minneapolis during immigration enforcement operations.
He announced his retirement in an interview with Breitbart.
"The greatest honor of my entire life was to work alongside Border Patrol agents on the border and in the interior of the United States in some of the most challenging conditions the agency has ever faced," Bovino told the outlet. "Watching these agents out there giving it their all in some of the most dangerous of environments we have ever faced was humbling."
He returned to his role as Border Patrol sector chief in El Centro, California.
Bovino and his team were dispatched to Los Angeles in June 2025, where they arrested criminal illegal immigrants, sparking local outcry, including from Mayor Karen Bass, who confronted Bovino.
The events there were followed by operations in several other cities before deploying to Minneapolis.

Over time, Bovino and federal immigration authorities came under heavy scrutiny from Democrats, who denounced them as being indiscriminate and aggressive. They were accused of targeting immigrants with no criminal records and even U.S. citizens.
In Minneapolis, agents were followed by civilians who were seen impeding law enforcement operations.
Good was shot and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent as she drove forward in his direction, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said.
Pretti was fatally shot after he approached immigration agents with a 9 mm handgun and resisted when they tried to disarm him, authorities said.

How to shop Amazon's Big Spring Sale: Dates, tips and the best early deals
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale runs March 25-31, bringing a week of discounts on everything from home upgrades to Apple tech and beauty products. It’s one of Amazon’s first major sales of the year and a good time to save on seasonal items like solar lights, cleaning supplies, tire inflators and vacuums.

READ MORE: Amazon's Big Spring Saler hasn't started yet — but these early deals are live right now
Amazon hosts several major sales each year, including Prime Day in July and Prime Big Deal Days in October. Amazon's Big Spring Sale typically focuses on seasonal categories like patio furniture, cleaning tools, outdoor lighting and spring wardrobe updates.
Another key difference: While many deals are available to all shoppers, Prime members often get early access or deeper discounts on select items. Because the event runs for a full week, Amazon also rotates limited-time offers and Lightning Deals throughout the sale. That means the best prices don’t always appear on day one. In fact, some discounts may only last a few hours before selling out.
Based on previous years, we expect discounts on Apple Watches, bed pillows and vacuums. We’re also watching for price drops on popular items like outdoor lighting and tire inflators.

TSA pay bill unveiled as shutdown leaves agents unpaid, strains airport security
FIRST ON FOX: A House GOP lawmaker is unveiling new legislation aimed at easing airport chaos that's hitting travelers across the country during the ongoing partial government shutdown.
Rep. Nick Langworthy, R-N.Y., introduced a bill on Monday to ensure Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers are paid during shutdowns by creating a Transportation Security Trust Fund to help operations and personnel wherever needed.
It would be funded by the Aviation Passenger Security Fee, also called the 9/11 passenger security fee in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. It's a small cost collected by airlines — $5.60 for a one-way trip and up to $11.20 for a round-trip — for flights that originate in the U.S. and is meant to go toward passenger security.
Langworthy's proposal comes days after TSA agents missed their first full paychecks of the shutdown, which has now gone on roughly a month with no end in sight.
'YOU CAN CRY ABOUT IT': TEMPERS FLARE IN SENATE AS DHS SHUTDOWN DEBATE ERUPTS, STALEMATE DIGS DEEPER
While they are entitled to back pay when the shutdown is over, the lack of a consistent paycheck and uncertainty over its duration have forced scores of TSA agents to call out sick and look for other ways to earn income to pay bills and feed their families.
Travelers in places like Louisiana and Texas have been asked to arrive hours early for flights to accommodate longer wait times for security.
Delays have also been exacerbated by bad weather in parts of the country, including up and down the East Coast.
HOMELAND SECURITY REACTIVATES MAJOR GLOBAL ENTRY PROGRAM FOR TRAVELERS AMID SHUTDOWN
"This is now the third time in just six months that TSA agents have been forced to work without receiving a paycheck," Langworthy told Fox News Digital. "Morale and recruitment are taking a profound hit, and we’ve already lost more than 300 agents, putting the agency’s mission at grave risk."
He said his bill "will help ensure that our hardworking agents get paid, and that we retain the vigilant, professional workforce necessary to protect the traveling public."
"Doing nothing is a national security crisis waiting to happen," Langworthy warned.
Democrats walked away from bipartisan funding negotiations earlier this year after Congress passed federal budgets for all aspects of the federal government except for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Democratic leaders are protesting the Trump administration's handling of illegal immigration and withholding support from any spending bill that funds Trump's crackdown, turning down multiple compromise offers for guardrails from the White House.
DHS oversees a wide variety of federal agencies, including the TSA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Secret Service, and others.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., announced Monday that Democrats would try to force a vote on funding all of DHS except for immigration-related agencies — likely a nonstarter for Republicans.
The standoff has seen new significance as more and more TSA agents are forced to choose between working without pay and finding second jobs to make ends meet. Concerns have also been exacerbated by the U.S. and Israel's operation in Iran, which has raised the national security threat level within the country.
Woman crushed to death under St. Patrick's Day parade float in front of crowds of spectators
A Kentucky woman is dead after she was dragged under a float and crushed in front of crowds of revelers during a local St. Patrick’s Day parade over the weekend.
The incident unfolded at the 53rd annual parade in Louisville, when authorities were called to an area near Bardstown Road and Grinstead Drive just before 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 14, over reports of a woman being struck by a vehicle, according to WLKY.
A preliminary investigation conducted by authorities reportedly revealed the woman, identified as 50-year-old Joan Pannuti, was walking next to a float when her foot became caught, causing her to fall to the ground and get stuck under the vehicle.
The float immediately stopped and Pannuti was administered first aid before being transported to a local hospital, where she died from her injuries.
Video obtained by WDRB showed the moments immediately after Pannuti was dragged under the float as it was being towed by a silver truck clad in four-leaf clovers.
Good Samaritans were seen rushing to Pannuti’s aid as the group waited for law enforcement to arrive.

"I seen the EMS attending to somebody… I saw somebody on the stretcher, not thinking it was something very serious," food vendor David Gnamba told WAVE.
"It does break my heart because that’s a person that lost their life," Gnamba added. "This is not news that we want to hear – as human beings, as vendors, as people, as partygoers."
The parade’s organizers, the Hibernian Cultural and Charitable Association, reportedly released a statement expressing their organization is "deeply saddened by the tragic accident."

Additionally, Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg called for prayers for the victim and her loved ones in a social media post.
"I am so sorry to hear about the tragic accident that took a woman’s life at today’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade," Greenberg said. "Please join Rachel and me in keeping her family and friends in your prayers. May her memory be a blessing."
The Louisville Metro Police Department did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
Trump enjoys 'messing with' journalists as they scramble to get his personal phone number: report
President Donald Trump has been readily accessible to numerous journalists who have his personal phone number, but he's often treating these interviews like a joke, according to a new report.
"Years after reporters stopped breathlessly writing up every tweet or crazy moment, the Trump phone exclusive is a new trick that makes news organizations parrot his views, this time under the guise of major scoops," Max Tani quipped in a Semafor piece headlined, "Why (and how) everyone is cold-calling the president." "Some interviews have offered insights into Trump’s thinking, but most are less revealing than the average Trump Truth Social post."
The report noted how journalists from numerous organizations have clamored for Trump’s personal number, but this enthusiasm appears to be one-sided, even as Trump has allowed himself to be so easily accessible. Tani noted that a White House official, speaking anonymously, told him "something that reporters ought to realize: Trump isn’t taking these calls that seriously."
The White House official purportedly said that when Trump picks up the phone for such journalists, "He is often preoccupied, puts them on speaker in front of a large group of people, and he is loosely chatting and has fun messing with them."
TRUMP'S RETURN TO WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' DINNER MARKS POLITICAL JOURNEY COMING FULL CIRCLE
"Reporters who think they are being serious journalists by calling him are frankly doing themselves a disservice," the White House insider added.
But in another example of the mutual love-hate relationship between Trump and the media, even seasoned journalists have trouble resisting the call.
"I feel like Frodo with the ring," one Washington journalist told Tani, referring to the "Lord of the Rings" fantasy series. "I know it’s dangerous, but it keeps beckoning me."
Upon actually acquiring Trump’s number, there are many rumored techniques to make it count.
"The conventional wisdom shared by most people who spoke with Semafor was to try Trump late in the evenings when he is watching TV and chatting," Semafor reported. "One person with his number said the only guaranteed way to get him was to get him on the horn in the middle of the night when he can’t sleep."
Another key aspect of these calls is that many techniques from different sources can be completely contradictory, like, "Another person who’d spoken with him by phone recently said to give him a call early in the morning. Others said don’t give him a call in the morning, as that’s when he’s snapped at some reporters."
"If you’re lucky enough to actually get him, a few elements seem to generally apply to all calls. They’re almost always a few minutes long or less, which media outlets have described, in charitable shorthand, as ‘brief,’" he added. "Two journalists who have interviewed him in person in recent years said he has stopped their interviews at multiple points to field phone calls from other journalists and various public officials and business figures."

"President Trump is the most transparent and accessible president in history, and he’s truly his own best messenger," the White House told Fox News Digital in a statement. "The press cannot get enough of him, and they know it."
Riley Green left bleeding after fan hurls phone at country star onstage during concert
Riley Green was left bleeding after a disgruntled fan threw a phone at him onstage.
In a video posted to social media, the country star was caught off guard while performing at Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne, Australia, when a phone was suddenly thrown from the crowd, clipping the musician in the ear.
A shocked Green paused the show and asked his crew to turn the house lights on in an effort to identify the thrower. With the help of the crowd, Green pointed to the fan and threw him out of the show.
RILEY GREEN CHOOSES ALABAMA FARM OVER NASHVILLE FAME DESPITE HAVING 'EVERY REASON' TO MAKE THE MOVE
"This one right here? Get his fat a-- out of here. Go on," Green said.
After the fan was escorted out the arena, Green — who wasn't aware of his injury — thanked his fans for their support.
"I’d like to take a moment while I’ve got everybody’s attention to thank each and every one of you for coming out tonight.," he said. "Hang on, am I bleeding? Y’all see how tough I am? Thank God he didn’t have an iPhone 12, that would have really hurt."
After the show, Green gave his fans an update on social media.
"5 stitches later… sewed up," he wrote on his Instagram Stories, accompanied by a photo of the injury.
Earlier this month, Green spoke with Fox News Digital about why he prefers his life in Alabama over furthering his career in Tennessee.
"I feel like I’ve got every reason in the world to move to Nashville, and it’s just never crossed my mind. I love my farm in Alabama, and it’s the place I draw all my inspiration for songs from," he said.

Green added, "Life moves a lot slower down there."
"When I get a day off, and I’m on my farm, I do as little as possible," Green said. "But, [I] definitely get on the tractor and do a little bit of clearing and – I got my pops out there helping me work on the farm. I got a lot of animals and dogs and we just kind of take it easy."
Green is making his acting debut in the Luke Grimes-led "Yellowstone" spinoff, "Marshals."
Speaking to Fox News Digital at the premiere, Green said his nerves were wrecked stepping on set for the first time, and it doesn't compare to going on stage.
"Oh, much more nerve-wracking. I don’t get nervous going on stage anymore. I’ve played enough shows now it kind of comes naturally, but this was a completely different world, and it’s not my set, it’s not my stage. I’m kind of the new guy in that bunch, so it was definitely a nerve-wracking thing," he said.

First case of severe mpox disease reported in major city: ‘Life-threatening’
The first case of severe mpox (formerly monkeypox) has been identified in New York City, according to an advisory issued by the NYC Health Department.
One resident has tested positive for mpox clade I, one of the two main genetic groups (clades) of the mpox virus, which causes the illness.
"Clade I causes more severe symptoms and can be life-threatening," Dr. Marc Siegel, Fox News senior medical analyst, told Fox News Digital. "It spreads via direct contact or sex, and kissing, and very close respiratory droplets, but not over longer distances by respiratory spread."
MPOX STRAIN SURFACES IN US WITHOUT INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL, RAISING FEARS OF WIDER OUTBREAK
Clade II was the strain that caused a 2022 global outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Survival rates for this type are more than 99.9%.
Clade I, which was responsible for the 2024 outbreak in the DRC and Africa, is known to cause more severe illness and deaths.
The New York City patient recently traveled out of the country, the advisory states. "This appears to have come here from travel and has not spread locally," Siegel noted.

There is no known local transmission of mpox clade I in New York City and the risk remains low for local residents, according to NYC Health Commissioner Dr. Alister Martin.
"The NYC Health Department recommends that New Yorkers who are at risk for mpox receive and complete the two-dose vaccine series that works to prevent mpox," he said in a statement.
To help prevent transmission, the CDC recommends vaccination for men who are gay, bisexual or have sex with men, are age 18 or older, and have other specific risks. Those who plan to travel to areas where clade I mpox is spreading should also seek the vaccine.

People who may have been in close contact with an infected person should get the vaccine within 14 days.
As with other viral infections, those who are immunocompromised or very young are at the greatest risk of severe infection.
Vaccination can help reduce the chances of infection and also makes symptoms less severe, according to experts. The two-dose JYNNEOS vaccine is the most common type of protection. Those who have had mpox do not need to be vaccinated.
Mpox symptoms include a sometimes painful, blistery rash on various parts of the body, fever, chills, exhaustion, muscle aches, headache, swollen lymph nodes and respiratory symptoms, according to the CDC. These symptoms usually emerge one to three weeks after exposure.
TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ
In rare cases, mpox can lead to eye infections, severe rash, painful skin lesions and neurological problems.
Treatment for mpox involves supportive care to manage symptoms. In severe cases, patients may receive TPOXX (tecovirimat), an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by viruses related to smallpox, including mpox, Siegel noted.
Vegas sheriff refuses judge’s order to free 35-arrest repeat offender — court clash heads to top
A Las Vegas sheriff is refusing to release a repeat offender with 35 arrests despite a judge’s order, sparking a legal showdown now headed to the Nevada Supreme Court over who decides if a suspect is too dangerous to leave jail.
The dispute began after Las Vegas Justice Court Judge Eric Goodman ordered Joshua Sanchez-Lopez released on electronic monitoring, a program that allows defendants to leave jail while wearing a GPS ankle bracelet, according to KLAS.
But law enforcement officials declined to release Sanchez-Lopez, arguing his criminal history makes him too dangerous to supervise in the community.
Sanchez-Lopez, 36, is a felon whose record includes 35 arrests and prior prison time for drug and involuntary manslaughter charges, according to records cited by KLAS.
Police say his past behavior raises serious concerns. In one 2020 arrest, Sanchez-Lopez allegedly ran from officers while armed with a gun, later posting on Snapchat showing his ankle monitor and saying he "got chased again," according to documents cited by KLAS.
Officials say cases like that are exactly why the sheriff’s office believes it should have the final say on whether someone can be placed in the electronic monitoring program.
"We have to take a look at that and say, ‘Is this somebody who our electronic supervision program can monitor safely in the community?’" Mike Dickerson, assistant general counsel for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, told KLAS. "This is an issue of public safety."
FUGITIVE REPEAT OFFENDER KEEPS WALKING FREE AS COURTS LET HIM LOOSE TO HURT PEOPLE, EXPERTS WARN
The case stems from Sanchez-Lopez’s January arrest on a charge of grand larceny of a motor vehicle.
During a court hearing, Goodman set bail at $25,000 and ordered that Sanchez-Lopez be placed on "high-level" electronic monitoring, essentially house arrest, if he posted bond, KLAS reported.
Authorities refused, citing prior bench warrants, failures to appear in court and violations of the department’s monitoring program, according to the outlet.
When police declined to release him, Goodman ordered the department to comply and warned officials they could face contempt sanctions if they did not, the outlet reported.
"When someone has dozens of prior arrests and a history of violations, that raises serious concerns about whether they can safely be released into the community," said David Moody, a retired LVMPD detective and state president of FOP in Nevada. "From a law enforcement perspective, public safety has to come first."
Now the sheriff’s office is asking the Nevada Supreme Court to step in, arguing state law gives Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill the authority to determine whether supervising someone outside jail would pose an unreasonable risk to public safety.
"Sheriff McMahill will not violate the law to appease the Las Vegas Justice Court and let out people who he deems to be dangerous," the department said in a statement.
Sanchez-Lopez’s attorney, however, argues the sheriff is overstepping his authority.
"Metro’s argument is flat wrong," public defender P. David Westbrook said in a statement to KLAS. "It is the job of the elected judge to decide whether someone charged with a crime should be released and under what conditions."
The dispute has also drawn attention online, where some commentators praised the sheriff for refusing to release the defendant.
The conservative social media account Libs of TikTok posted about the case on X, calling Sanchez-Lopez a "violent career criminal" and writing, "Kudos to this sheriff!"
The Nevada Republican Club also weighed in, writing, "That’s our Sheriff. We stand behind him all day long."
Sigal Chattah, the U.S. attorney for the District of Nevada, also praised the sheriff, writing on X: "Couldn’t be more proud to call this guy MY SHERIFF… bow down America to King Kevin."
The Nevada Supreme Court has not yet scheduled a hearing on the petition.
Fox News Digital reached out to Sanchez-Lopez’s attorney, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the Clark County District Attorney’s Office for comment. Goodman declined to comment, citing the pending case.
Gen Z Christian influencer says young Americans are 'tired of fake stuff,' turning to Jesus
A 22-year-old Christian influencer says more young Americans are rediscovering faith as frustration with "fake stuff" and social media culture drives a search for deeper meaning.
"We’re tired of fake stuff. We’re tired of fluff," Bryce Crawford said Monday on "Fox & Friends."
"We're fed fluff through our phones, through desires, through whatever we think is going to satisfy. Every human being is on a quest for love, and we try to fill that void with different things, and I think people are naturally understanding, 'Wait, this thing isn't working anymore. This isn't going how I thought it was going to go,' so ultimately, people don't just want a truth, they want the truth and that would be Jesus."
Crawford is helping trailblaze a faith revival among young adults by spreading the gospel in the streets and to millions of followers on his social media accounts.
'THE CHOSEN’ FANS REVEAL WHY THE JESUS SERIES IS REWRITING HOLLYWOOD RULES
After growing up in a Christian household, he fully committed to Christ and found peace in Jesus' word after battling anxiety and depression as a teen.
"When I was 17, I planned on making an irrevocable decision with my life because I thought that was the only way to get the pain to go away," he said.
"And the night I was going to make an irrevocable decision, Jesus supernaturally encountered me, and I prayed a prayer. I said, 'Jesus, if you're real, take away my anxiety and depression,' and I haven't had it since that day."
CATHOLICVOTE LAUNCHES 'ZEALE' APP TARGETING GEN Z AMERICANS WITH FAITH AND NEWS CONTENT
That was over five years ago, he shared, and that moment placed his "foot in the door" to give his life to Christ.
Crawford is also leading the charge with his "I Love Jesus" tour – traveling from state to state, city to city, to help spread the gospel and give people a space to unify behind a Christian message.
He said helping others welcome the gospel as he did starts with being "intentional" in asking questions.
"[People are] not a statistic. I'm not going out there to treat them like a stat to go home and brag about. They're a human being that's made in the image of God," he said.
"So we want to be intentional and ask questions. But we ask the tough questions, too: Do you have a faith? What do you think happens when we die? Do you believe in Jesus? [What are] your thoughts on Him? Everyone has a perspective of Jesus. It's just, do we believe that he is God? And if he is God, then he's worthy of our lives and worship."
Crawford said the Christian resurgence among fellow Gen Zers stems from people "waking up to the truth" and realizing that Christ is the "only thing that can satisfy" them.
"We've lived for so many different things, different people, relationships, substances, different vices, and it doesn't fulfill us," he said.
"So people understand that we need something eternal and perfect that can sustain that, and Jesus is alive and active, and He is doing that in people's hearts who are hungry and ready to receive Him."
DHS nabs Afghan man admitted under Biden after conviction for exposing himself to minor
FIRST ON FOX: An Afghan national let into the country during the Biden administration has been arrested by the Department of Homeland Security following a conviction for indecent exposure to a minor.
Basir Ahmad Safi, who is in his 30s, was arrested by DHS on March 11, according to the agency. Before his conviction for indecent exposure to a minor, Safi was charged with lewd or lascivious exhibition, soliciting a child via computer, unlawful use of a two-way communications device and child abuse.
He was admitted to the country in 2021 under former President Joe Biden’s "Operation Allies Welcome," according to the agency. Two years later, in September 2023, Safi was arrested in Florida by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office on those charges.
In an emailed statement to Fox News Digital, DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis slammed the Biden administration for having allowed "this unvetted Afghan pedophile" in the U.S.
ANGEL MOM WHOSE 13-YEAR-OLD SON WAS EXECUTED BY ILLEGAL GANG MEMBER URGES INCOMING DHS CHIEF TO ACT
"He should NEVER have been allowed into our country or given the opportunity to prey on innocent children," wrote Bis.
DHS said Safi was arrested as part of a joint investigation by Homeland Security Investigations Jacksonville and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. By the time of his arrest, Safi’s status had been revoked, and he was unlawfully residing in the U.S., DHS said. Safi is being held in ICE custody pending removal.
This comes after Rahmanullah Lakanwal, another Afghan national allowed into the country under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome, shot two U.S. National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C. One of the service members, Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, of the West Virginia National Guard, died from her injuries. The other, Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, was critically wounded but survived.
GOP LAWMAKERS WOULD STRIP CITIZENSHIP FROM TERRORISTS AFTER ATTACKS TIED TO NATURALIZED CITIZENS
According to DHS, the Biden-era Operation Allies Welcome relied on "unvetted referrals" to allow nearly 190,000 Afghan nationals into the country. The agency said those admitted into the U.S. included terrorists, sexual predators, pedophiles, domestic abusers and kidnappers
DHS said that "understanding this massive threat to American national security," President Donald Trump halted Biden’s Afghan refugee resettlement program almost immediately after returning to the Oval Office. Months later, Trump suspended the entry of all Afghan nationals into the U.S.
ICE BUSTS HUMAN SMUGGLING RING THAT KIDNAPPED FAMILY, SEXUALLY ASSAULTED PREGNANT WOMAN
Bis said that "under President Trump’s leadership, DHS has been focused on identifying, arresting, and removing public safety threats like Basir Ahmad Safi from our country."
A spokesperson for former President Biden did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
