As the owner of the largest police news outlet in the world, I rarely take a moment to write articles or op-eds.
There are exceptions – like when I have the opportunity to endorse President Trump on behalf of our media outlet (which, by the way, I’d gladly do again in 2028).
Or when I see a grave injustice that’s happening.
Or when someone messes with my family.
Well, my friends – today, I’m pissed. And I’m here to tell you about it. Because a wolf in sheep’s clothing has been revealed – and his name is Gregory Bovino. And today, we’re going to have a very uncomfortable conversation and air out some dirty laundry that a lot of people know… and nobody wants to talk about it.
In both a desperate attempt at relevancy and attention, Bovino, who was reportedly under multiple investigations and about to be fired, according to numerous sources, has decided to stab true patriots in the back.
All this has been happening as accusations are now coming out and evidence is mounting that Bovino has embraced commentary bashing Jewish people. More on that in a bit.
Until Bovino’s “retirement” this month, he’d previously served as Border Patrol’s commander-at-large. And in his untimely (but long overdue) departure, he accused Border Czar Homan and Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott of “saying nothing” in the wake of the death of a college student in Chicago.
“The Gorman family is burying their daughter this week, and liberal [Customs and Border Protection] commissioner Rodney Scott and capitulator Tommy Homan say and do nothing, which is how we got in this mess in the first place.”
That student, according to DHS officials, was shot and killed by a Venezuelan national who was allowed to remain in America after entering illegally in 2023.
Homan, for his part, responded to the insults with nothing but grace and professionalism, not playing into the childish temper tantrum of the overgrown toddler:
“I appreciate Greg Bovino’s service to the country. I think he’s a patriot. The bottom line is, I’ve been fighting sanctuary cities for 10 years, and the fact remains: under my leadership, I’ve deported more illegal aliens than anybody since the Eisenhower administration,” Homan told NewsNation.
“I mean, anybody who thinks ‘Tom Homan’s soft on immigration’ is just wrong. But look, I appreciate Greg’s service. I appreciate him, you know, putting that badge and gun on every day, so I hope he’s happy in retirement,” he added.
Time for some real talk.
Homan As A Professional
First of all, I’m blessed to know Homan in two capacities – both professionally and personally. Let’s start with the professional.
We pulled the numbers, and he’s ALMOST right when he says “more illegal aliens than anybody since the Eisenhower administration”.
Roughly 1.1–1.3 million people were removed or left the U.S. during the peak year of Eisenhower’s immigration crackdown, though the exact number is debated.
When factoring in both deportations and self-deportations, the numbers under President Trump and Tom Homan’s leadership more than DOUBLE that. That would actually make Homan the single most effective weapon ever used in ensuring national security through deportations.
Second… Homan came out of retirement TWICE to serve our nation. And in doing so, I know for a fact that he not only took a massive pay cut, but he’s faced direct threats on his own life and the lives of his loved ones – including by the cartels.
So with that in mind, let’s talk about Bovino’s accusations that Homan “does nothing”. This would be a great time to point out that while Biden was in office, Bovino literally stood by and helped RELEASE thousands of illegal immigrants EACH WEEK into the United States. Did he resign in “righteous indignation” then? Did he stand by those beliefs?
Nope. He cowered like a spineless little boy seeking the attention and affection of Daddy Biden.
Forgive me for calling BS on him now “retiring” and bashing President Trump and Border Czar Tom Homan, who are ACTUALLY being effective.
Since 2018, I’ve brought film crews to the border and to major cities COUNTLESS times to show the true stories of the impact of the border crisis on Americans. I can’t even tell you how many times we’ve filmed with Tom Homan and had him show us first-hand just how significant a crisis we were facing.
And every time we filmed with him – without fail – he was treated like a CELEBRITY by every single border patrol agent and law enforcement officer. The man isn’t just a humble servant – he’s a warrior that’s viewed as a LEGEND.
Law Enforcement Today and the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA) also spent countless WEEKS filming on the border with Art del Cueto, a now-retired Border Patrol Agent who was the National Vice President and National Spokesman for the National Border Patrol Council. Art took all of that time as personal time and volunteered to help us secure the footage we needed while providing protection for us.
(Now THAT is a man who should be working with Homan and Scott to advise President Trump on the border instead of fighting age with BJJ and eating tacos in his retirement – just saying.)
As for Bovino? I’d say we’d never heard of him – but that wouldn’t be accurate. The truth is that he was far more infamous than Homan. Notice I said infamous, though… not famous. We’ve worked with thousands of Border Patrol agents over the years. And not once did we hear a SINGLE agent speak positively about Bovino. Just the opposite, actually.
“Our agents had worked extremely diligently to de-escalate a major situation Bovino was a part of in Chicago,” one agent told me on the condition of keeping their identity confidential.
“Once the situation was handled, they were all ready to go out the back door quietly. Bovino insisted on going out the front door. Agents let him know it was a dangerous move that would put lives in jeopardy. He made it clear they were going out the front because there were news cameras there, and he wanted to be seen on camera. The situation quickly descended into chaos again.”
I never thought I’d quote an article from the liberal rag “Time”, but I need to dive into this a bit:
“Amid a broader wave of backlash against Trump’s immigration crackdown, Bovino has faced public controversy and clashes.
Among them: his clothing. As the situation in Minneapolis escalated, a long olive green overcoat Bovino has been pictured wearing drew comparisons to Nazi uniforms.
“Greg Bovino dressed up as if he literally went on eBay and purchased SS garb. Greg Bovino, secret police, private army, masked men, people disappearing quite literally, no due process,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom recently said.
Multiple German media outlets, including Der Spiegel and Süddeutsche Zeitung, have also said the coat resembles the look of a Nazi officer.
In response to the comparisons, Bovino has said he has owned the coat for over 25 years and got it from CBP.”
I figured it was the typical BS that a leftist fake news outlet would drop to bash the Trump administration. Until I got tipped off by several FURIOUS people about a call last weekend involving numerous US attorneys, where Bovino allegedly made a comment bashing a Jewish prosecutor who doesn’t work on the Sabbath.
Agents I spoke with on the condition of keeping their identities anonymous said it’s “par for the course”.
“This man makes every Border Patrol agent look bad. He embraces the stereotypes that the liberal media creates surrounding us. His language about illegal immigrants is dehumanizing, racist, and worse. He was never a solution – he was the problem. The best thing to happen for Border Patrol was for President Trump to cut that cancer out.”
Here’s where things get really interesting. It’s time for a reality check.
Bovino was one of 21 USBP Chief Patrol Agents. He was asked to lead a TEMPORARY national operation.
When that operation ended, Bovino returned to his regular job in El Centro, CA, as one of 21 USBP Chief Patrol Agents.
He was not demoted. He was not disciplined. He was not asked to retire. He was not punished in any way. The only “demotion”, apparently, was his ego.
The attention-seeking diva’s 15 minutes of fame were extinguished because he spiraled from securing the nation to securing glory shots of himself.
For those of you thinking I’m being harsh – here’s a simple exercise for you. Ask any respected leader in the USBP what operational benefit comes from putting Border Patrol boats on the river in downtown Chicago.
American security isn’t a movie where a character in real life who lacks the respect of the men and women alongside him suddenly becomes a superhero celebrity.
It’s a strategic operation that involves brains, support, and putting the safety of those who serve and civilians FIRST.
Border Patrol boats on the Chicago River? Seriously? Why were those agents forced to be literal sitting ducks? For Instagram reels to boost a little man’s ego… not for tactics.
Homan On the Personal
I mentioned earlier that I know Homan personally. He’s more than just a hero to me. He’s a Godly man and leader whom I’m proud to call a friend. Let me explain to you why.
While Bovino sits there bashing Homan, accusing him of not caring about Angel Families, I can honestly tell you that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Homan has personally met with HUNDREDS of them. I’ve seen him cry with them and pray with them. And he made a promise to all of those Angel families that he would NEVER let them down. THAT is why he came out of retirement a second time.
Mathew Silverman, the National President of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, had this to say:
“Last year, our foundation honored Tom as the ‘man of the year’. It wasn’t just because of his storied leadership. It was because of who he is as a man. He didn’t just promise Angel Families he’d always have their back – he also promised the same of ICE and Border Patrol agents. And the man has never wavered or backed down.
He’s a beacon of hope in a dark world. He’s a rare kind of individual – one that truly embodies selflessness and managed to be a hardened warrior and a gentle, loving, and compassionate grandfather not just to his own family – but to all of America’s children.”
Big Blue Bash
On November 11, 2025 – Veterans’ Day – we hosted our annual fundraiser for the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Foundation at Mar-A-Lago. It was called the Big Blue Bash. The funds raised help support the families of wounded and fallen officers.
We had a surprise presentation at the gala – we honored a little girl, 9, as the “woman of the year”. Two years ago… she held the hand of her little sister, who was about to turn four… as her little sister died. She kept telling her, “I love you”. Her sister was killed by an illegal immigrant.
Tom Homan and ICE Director Todd Lyons, with tears in their eyes, joined me on the stage to honor that little girl. To hold her and her family. To cry with them and lift them up in prayer. You can see the video below.
Tom and Todd have never been about “destroying families”. Their mission and objective have been singular, powerful, and impactful – PROTECT AMERICAN FAMILIES while treating ALL families with dignity and respect. And you do that by removing the worst of the worst.
I once described Homan in an interview as reminding me of King David. King David was a warrior who slew Goliath and would lead armies into battle. He was a badass.
But he was also soft and gentle. He played the harp and wrote poetry. Just don’t mess with the guy – because he will SLAY the enemy.
THAT is my friend, Tom Homan.
Homan - the man who is admired, cherished, and respected by every single law enforcement officer I’ve ever spoken with – whether it be at the local, state, or federal level.
Leadership
Mathew Silverman and I spent some time earlier this month with Scott in his office, and I couldn’t help but notice the words on top of a planning board: “GOD IS GREAT.”
During that meeting, we spoke a lot about our faith and how leadership comes when you submit yourself to the authority of God.
I find it interesting that Bovino would attack Scott as a “liberal”. Scott was selected by President Trump not based on politics, but based on service and leadership.
Scott made it very clear that he answers to God first and seeks to do whatever it takes, under the authority assigned by God to President Trump, to keep our nation safe. At no point in that meeting did he disparage ANYONE, but instead spoke about the incredible men and women that serve under him and how he values and admires each of them.
Before departing, we shared something personal and impactful that we’ve also shared with Tom Homan, Todd Lyons, and many of the other great leaders selected by President Trump: prayer.
We recommitted our lives, our families, our actions, and our work to the power and glory of God. We prayed over the men and women who serve our nation. We didn’t pray for more TV cameras or more Facebook views or more Instagram likes.
In each of these moments of quiet prayer – out of the spotlight – we humbled ourselves before God and asked that he use us.
“I’ve been blessed to work for a lot of incredible leaders during my two decades as a federal agent,” said Silverman. “But the quiet strength and leadership of Scott… the humility of a man who just wants to serve… is something rare and unique. It’s no wonder that the men and women who are privileged to serve under the leadership of Scott and Homan sing their praises.”
President Trump is, without question, the greatest president of our lifetime. And while he’s had a lot of incredible picks in cabinet and leadership positions – Homan and Scott are two of the best.
Take note, Bovino, because it’s obvious that you’re going to milk this fake retirement for all of the media exposure you can get. So let me give you some free advice.
Leadership isn’t what happens when the cameras are rolling. It’s what happens when you’re cleaning up the mess of the media whores who didn’t actually give a shit about agents, officers, or the community.
It’s what you do not for the credit or the kudos… but rather for the best interests of the people you’ve vowed to protect – who you’ll probably never meet.
It’s what happens when you believe in something so deeply that it hurts… and when success comes at the expense of the family and life you cherish deeply.
True leadership isn’t about walking around in a top coat, screaming at people for TikTok views. It’s what happens when you’re willing to humble yourself before God and surrender yourself to serving Him.
Leadership is when you can be punched in the face and respond with this: “I appreciate him, you know, putting that badge and gun on every day, so I hope he’s happy in retirement.”
Like Homan, I also appreciate the service of anyone who puts on a badge and a gun every day. But quite frankly, I couldn't care less about how Bovino fares in his retirement.
Because when you go out of your way to undermine our president… when you turn your back on the community… and when you put yourself and your own ego above protecting innocent Americans while pandering for social media “likes” – I don’t mind if the door hits you in the ass on the way out.
I guess that’s just one more thing that makes Tom Homan a better man than me… and a better man than most.
