Gregory Bovino, the former commander-at-large of the Border Patrol, has formed an exploratory committee for a possible presidential run in 2028. Having retired in March after nearly three decades with the agency, Bovino was a prominent figure during the Trump administration's strict immigration policies. His campaign website, Bovino2028.com, features a logo that promotes a warrior mindset for national security and has sparked controversy due to an image of him wearing a coat likened to Nazi-era attire. Bovino has remained vocal about his criticisms of the Department of Homeland Security, particularly targeting Secretary Markwayne Mullin for what he perceives as a lenient approach to immigration enforcement. He has stated that if elected, he would lead deportation efforts personally. Bovino's claims about the number of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. significantly exceed those of federal agencies, and he has expressed dissatisfaction with the current administration's tactics, advocating for a return to more aggressive enforcement measures.
