Trump border commander could head to Charlotte, New Orleans, sources say
- On Wednesday, ABC News confirmed Customs and Border Protection commander-at-large Greg Bovino could leave Chicago sometime this week as Border Patrol agents are expected to lead an immigration enforcement operation in Charlotte, North Carolina this month without coordinating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
- Greg Bovino has led President Donald Trump's Operation Midway Blitz since September, as officials say deployments aim to arrest violent criminals in the country without legal status and expand to New Orleans.
- DHS officials said plans for operations remain preliminary and local outlets say they have not received notification, with it unclear whether one city or multiple cities will go first.
- Protestors in Chicago have clashed with agents, leading to court battles over force after Judge Sara Ellis restricted crowd-control weapons last week and ordered body cameras; on Saturday, agents were shot at, DHS reported.
- Community groups in Charlotte are mobilizing emergency meetings to teach families how to verify officers and connect with legal support, while police data show a 20% decrease in violent crime since last year and declines in New Orleans.
