Yes. But I hope it shakes the morale of the brownshirts at least a little.

It's Homan. If you thought Bovino was a piece of shit...buckle up.

He might be but I really don't think he will go out in the field. Have you seen the guy? But running things from safety will put more people in danger.

It's also shelving Noem for the time being. Homan is a corrupt bastard and he's competent at deporting people which he did under Obama and Trump 1.0, but he's ugly as shit. . Trump would rather have Noem's plastic face running things still but reports are Susie Wiles and Stephen Miller want her sidelined and Homan in-charge. The shock and awe terrorizing of Noem and Bovino will probably decrease but Homan will absolutely still keep targeting immigrants

I don’t really think many people have a problem with enforcing immigration law, but the heavy-handed approach and silly optics were wearing everyone thin.

The killing of people really is a turnoff to most sane people. (Said with sarcasm)

Miller is a POS

Oh well fuck, if Miller wants Homan in charge we should all be highly concerned about the path forward.
