Video Shows Bovino Giving Orders to Federal Agents in Los Angeles
Video from last summer shows the Border Patrol official Gregory Bovino telling federal agents dressed in tactical gear to “arrest as many people that touch you as you want.” The video was made public as part of a federal lawsuit over immigration enforcement in the Chicago area.
“Arrest as many people that touch you as you want to. Those are the general orders all the way to the top. Everybody fucking gets it if they touch you. You hear what I’m saying?” “Yes, sir.” “Less-lethals, we’re going to look at shipping tractor-trailer loads of that shit in here. So you catch what I’m — it’s all about us now. It ain’t about them. Professional, legal, ethical, moral. You know what we’re talking about — legal ethical, moral. You’re on camera. But other than that, it’s what we do.” “What city is it?” “Fucking — this is our fucking city.” [chanting]
