Daily Wire immigration reporter Jenny Taher has the latest.

President Donald Trump sent the former acting ice chief to Minneapolis to replace Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino, who is known for marching through the city flanked by fellow agents in a show of force.

Here's Holman this morning.

Homeland Security sources recently told The Daily Wire that Homan has opposed the strategy of Bovino and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, whose focus has been on meeting quotas rather than focusing federal resources on hunting down the worst criminal illegal immigrants roaming Minneapolis.

Homan also departed from Noam's earlier messaging regarding the fatal shooting of Alex Preti.

Hours after the shooting, Noam labeled Preti a, quote, domestic terrorist who intended, quote, to inflict maximum damage on individuals and to kill law enforcement.

Homan made clear that he wouldn't speak on the incident until the investigation concludes.
