Gregory Bovino, the former leader of Customs and Border Protection, expressed his frustration after Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin dismissed his criticisms of the department's management as 'irrelevant.' During an interview on Newsmax, Bovino stated that Mullin is aware of him despite claiming otherwise. He reiterated his strong stance on immigration, saying, 'I'm for the American people. I'm for mass deportations. And if that is irrelevant, then I'm guilty.' His comments come at a time when protests outside Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, have been ongoing for over two weeks, with demonstrators voicing concerns over conditions inside the facility. Some Democratic lawmakers have joined the protests, calling for the facility's closure. Bovino characterized the protests as being driven by 'violent anarchists and rioters,' contrasting the situation in Newark with unrest seen in other cities like Minneapolis. The exchange highlights the tensions surrounding immigration policy and the management of detention facilities.
