This is Trump's ruthless migrant hunter - Dressed as an SS officer

Greg Bovino, commander of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), has caused a stir on social media due to his appearance in recent images from Minneapolis. His uniform, an olive-drab coat with a strict line and metallic buttons, has been compared to SS officer uniforms, sparking strong reactions. Bovino has built a public image as an authoritarian commander, with a short haircut and deliberate austerity. He previously worked in the El Centro area of California, where he became known for spectacular and extreme actions against migrants. In 2023, he was temporarily suspended, with Republicans accusing the Biden administration of targeting him, while the Associated Press reported that the removal was linked to a photo post with a gun.
