Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino will reportedly leave Minnesota immediately as the Trump administration handles fallout from a fatal agent-involved shooting. Bovino will exit the state along with a portion of Border Patrol agents, according to The Wall Street Journal. President Donald Trump has said that he will recall all Border Patrol agents from Minnesota if the state agrees to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday that if Minnesota and local authorities change their approach to ICE and agree to assist federal authorities in apprehending illegal aliens, the president would withdraw Border Patrol from the state. “If Governor [Tim Walz] and Mayor [Jacob Frey] implement these common sense cooperative measures that, I will add, have already been implemented in nearly every single other state across the country, Customs and Border Patrol will not be needed to support ICE on the ground in Minnesota,” said Leavitt. “ICE and local law enforcement can peacefully work together as they are effectively doing in so many other states and jurisdictions.” Tensions in Minneapolis have exploded after two immigration enforcement-involved shootings this month. On Saturday, a Customs and Border Protection agent shot and killed Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse at a VA hospital, who was allegedly interfering with immigration operations in the city. Pretti’s death came just weeks after Renee Good was shot and killed in her vehicle after appearing to drive in the direction of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in Minneapolis. As Bovino withdraws from the state, border czar Tom Homan is traveling to Minnesota to take the lead in mediating between state and local authorities and federal immigration authorities, the White House announced on Monday. “Mr. Homan is the point-person in cooperating with state and local authorities and corresponding with them, again, to achieve this level of cooperation to subdue the chaos on the streets of Minneapolis,” said Leavitt. The president spoke with Walz and Frey over the phone on Monday and had positive reports about both calls. Of Walz, Trump said that he and the Minnesota governor “seemed to be on a similar wavelength” regarding the future of immigration operations in the state. Of Frey, Trump described the conversation as “very good” and said the mayor would be meeting with Homan on Tuesday. Rhetoric from state leaders and administration officials flared in the aftermath of the Good and Pretti shootings. On Sunday, Walz suggested that illegal aliens in his state were experiencing a version of the tragedy of Anne Frank, a Jewish girl who hid from the Nazi regime in an attic for over two years before dying in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem suggested that Pretti was a “domestic terrorist.” “Violence against a government because of ideological reasons and for reasons to resist and to perpetuate violence. That is the definition of domestic terrorism,” said Noem.

As Americans debate the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, an even bigger battle is brewing in Washington, as the Trump administration splits over how to handle mass deportation raids. The dividing lines have been drawn: on one side, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino, and Corey Lewandowski, a top Trump adviser and temporary government employee. On the other side are Border Czar Tom Homan and acting ICE Director Todd Lyons. Noem’s camp is focused on aggressive and showy tactics — fiery press conferences and Bovino marching through town with a squad of Border Patrol agents in tow — and is fixated on increasing arrest numbers. Homan’s side, however, is focused on the quality of arrests and getting the worst criminals off the streets, which they feel is a job best suited for ICE. The fractures between the camps only became more evident after a Border Patrol agent shot and killed Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse who officials say was armed while he was interacting with law enforcement on Saturday in Minneapolis. His death comes just weeks after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good, igniting a wave of unrest in Minneapolis, the site of Homeland Security’s Operation Metro Surge. In a press conference after the shooting, Noem asserted that Pretti was a “domestic terrorist” who appeared to have shown up “to inflict maximum damage on individuals and to kill law enforcement.” Noem’s claims were met with scorn by Democrats and Republicans alike. “This is a violent riot when you have someone showing up with weapons,” Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said during a press conference following the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti by a federal immigration agent. “This individual showed up to impede… pic.twitter.com/dt2MtXXtvI — CBS News (@CBSNews) January 25, 2026 Officials inside Noem’s own department slammed her rush to judgment, sources told The Daily Wire. “It was a horrible response,” said one official. “Many people I’ve heard from say it was unprofessional. She doesn’t know what she’s doing.” “The people in DHS are frustrated with Secretary Noem and the way DHS is handling the media,” the official added. “The employees want a more professional response, not memes and one-liners.” One Border Patrol source said it looked like “a really bad shoot.” North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis was among the growing number of congressional Republicans to condemn Noem, writing on X, “any administration official who rushes to judgment and tries to shut down an investigation before it begins are doing an incredible disservice to the nation and to President Trump’s legacy.” Texas Senator Ted Cruz even offered some advice to the Trump administration, saying they need to “be more measured” in their response. “What I think the administration could do better is the tone with which they’re describing this,” Cruz said on his podcast Monday. “The problem is particularly for someone not paying attention.” “If you’re being told this is a mom of three, and there’s no indication, you know she’s not waving an ISIS flag or doesn’t have a suicide vest around her,” Cruz added. “Escalating the rhetoric doesn’t help, and it actually loses credibility.” Trump dispatched Homan to Minneapolis Monday, saying the ex-ICE chief will report directly to him as he attempts to quell the situation on the ground. That prompted multiple reporters to question the White House during Monday’s briefing whether Trump is losing confidence in Noem. It’s unclear why Homan, who began as the face of the Trump administration’s deportation efforts, was not at the forefront of the Minnesota operations to begin with. “People who have no business being in charge in law enforcement operations at DHS f***ed up,” said a source, adding that “there’s a lot of us in the patrol that aren’t happy with how things have been handled.” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt insisted the commander-in-chief remains confident in Noem’s ability to lead. “Secretary Noem will continue to lead the Department of Homeland Security with the full trust and confidence of the president,” Leavitt told Reuters Monday. “Tom Homan is uniquely positioned to drop everything and focus solely on Minnesota to solve the problems that have been created by the lack of cooperation from state and local officials.” Q: “Should the deployment of Mr. Homan to Minneapolis be seen as a sign that the president is dissatisfied with how the officials on the ground have handled the incident?”@PressSec Karoline Leavitt: “No. Mr. Homan is doing an exceptional job…” pic.twitter.com/JnnEinADsi — CSPAN (@cspan) January 26, 2026 But the decision to send Homan to Minneapolis signals a change in the posture of the Trump administration’s immigration raids. The White House has also decided to pull Bovino, who has become the face of the aggressive approach to immigration enforcement, along with some of his agents, out of Minneapolis. Homan’s approach is to have ICE make arrests of the worst of the worst illegal immigrant criminals, while Noem and Bovino care more about increasing numbers and putting on a show of force, sources said. Border Patrol isn’t as equipped to operate in urban areas and is used to functioning on the border, where they’re mostly nabbing illegal border crossers and busting smuggling operations. “Noem lost control and never knew what she was doing,” one source told The Daily Wire. “She hated Homan because he reminded her daily that she knew nothing about law enforcement operations and that pissed her off.” Another source said “the internal strife between Homan and Noem” has led to “issues between the enforcement and reporting.” “She wants numbers, and this makes the heads of the components do anything to get those numbers. Homan is about enforcement, but not at any cost,” the source added. “I don’t think Border Patrol should be here, let ICE do their thing.” Noem shared her support of Homan’s trip, saying on X Monday that it’s “good news for peace, safety, and accountability in Minneapolis.” “I have worked closely with Tom over the last year, and he has been a major asset to our team — his experience and insight will help us in our wide-scale fraud investigations, which have robbed Americans, and will help us to remove even more public safety threats and violent criminal illegal aliens off the streets of Minneapolis,” she said. “We continue to call on the leadership in Minnesota to allow for state and local partnership in our public safety mission.” In response to claims of an internal rift at DHS, the agency told The Daily Wire that “DHS is one team, and we have one fight, to secure the homeland,” adding “DHS has arrested more than 3,500 illegal aliens, including rapists, murderers, and gang members, as part of DHS’s Operation Metro Surge.”

Buc-ee’s isn’t just a gas station; it’s an experience. The company’s location in Luling, Texas, holds the world record for the largest convenience store. It stands at a whopping 75,593 square feet. To put that into perspective, the average Walgreens store is about 13,000 square feet. Buc-ee’s is huge and offers customers a chance to refuel and recharge while on a road trip, or just grab a delicious snack if they’re in the neighborhood. The company currently operates more than 50 locations in the United States. Soon, the footprint will expand even further south. Buc-ee’s Plans to Open a New Location in Florida According to the Sebastian Daily, the new Buc-ee’s will open in Fort Pierce in 2027. The new store plans include 120 gas pumps, 18 electric vehicle charging stations, and more than 700 customer parking spots. The fan-favorite stop boasts the cleanest restrooms, a delicious jerky selection, tons of merchandise, and a place for customers to take a break. “Ever since our inception in 1982, we have been committed to providing a clean, friendly, and in-stock experience for our customers. Regardless of where you may find us, if the store is big or small, near or far, the mission remains the same,” the Buc-ee’s website says. Many hoped this new Buc-ee’s might be the biggest to date, but the company recently shot down those rumors. “Contrary to recent reporting that the proposed project in St. Lucie, FL, will be our largest store, Luling, TX, is, and will remain, the largest Buc-ee’s Travel Center in our fleet,” Stan Beard of Buc-ee’s said. “Planning departments throughout the country have different parameters for reporting building sizes in official planning documents.” “I don’t care if it’s the biggest, just start building. It’s a 10-minute drive from my house lol,” a fan joked. This story’s featured image is by RONALDO SCHEMIDT/AFP via Getty Images.

If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim The Net. Britain’s policing system, we are told, is broken. And on Monday, the home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, announced that the fix would arrive in the form of algorithms, facial recognition vans, and a large check made out to the future. The government plans to spend £140m ($191M) on artificial intelligence and related technology, with the promise that it will free up six million police hours a year, the equivalent of 3,000 officers. It is being billed as the biggest overhaul of policing in England and Wales in 200 years, aimed at dragging a creaking system into the modern world. The ambition is serious. The implications are too. The plan is for AI software that will analyze CCTV, doorbell, and mobile phone footage, detect deepfakes, carry out digital forensics, and handle administrative tasks such as form filling, redaction, and transcription. Mahmood’s argument is that criminals are getting smarter, while parts of the police service are stuck with tools that belong to another era. She put it plainly: “Criminals are operating in increasingly sophisticated ways. However, some police forces are still fighting crime with analogue methods.” And she promised results: “We will roll out state-of-the-art tech to get more officers on the streets and put rapists and murderers behind bars.” There is logic here. Few people would argue that trained officers should be buried in paperwork. Technology can help with that. The concern is what else comes with it. Live facial recognition is being expanded aggressively. The number of police vans equipped with the technology will increase fivefold, from ten to fifty, operating across the country. These systems scan faces in public spaces and compare them to watch lists of wanted individuals. This is a form of mass surveillance and when automated systems get things wrong, the consequences fall on real people. That is true for Shaun Thompson, an anti-knife crime campaigner, who was wrongly caught in the Metropolitan Police’s facial recognition tech. Earlier this month, Mahmood took a tone explicitly embracing the logic of the panopticon rather than warning against it. She argued that the knowledge of being observed can itself deter crime, describing visibility and certainty as powerful tools in modern policing. In her account, technology that makes offenders feel watched is not a threat to public life but a feature of a safer one, provided it is deployed by the state rather than left to chance or private actors. Mahmood said: “When the future arrives, there are always doubters. 100 years ago, fingerprinting was decried as curtailing our civil liberties. But today, we could not imagine policing without it. “I have no doubt the same will prove true of facial recognition technology in the years to come.” Facial recognition is not the same as fingerprinting because it operates at a distance and without active participation. Fingerprints are taken after arrest or with consent, in controlled settings, and they sit quietly in databases until a specific investigative need arises. Facial recognition works in public spaces, scanning faces automatically as people go about their lives, many of whom are not suspected of any wrongdoing, and checking them against databases.

You can tell that liberal networks bring on liberal religious leaders to sound off on Trump and ICE, but only to address what's "helpful" to the left-wing narrative. Catholic Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago and Episcopal Bishop Rob Hirschfeld were never bothered with the question of whether they approved of the anti-ICE church invasion in Minneapolis that abruptly ended a Sunday service in mid-sermon. What would Jesus do during a church invasion? No one asked. Bash interviewed Cardinal Cupich on Friday's Inside Politics:  CNN's Dana Bash offered softballs to liberal Cardinal Cupich, setting him up on what he would tell Catholic VP JD Vance on foreign policy. Bash never asked this church leader about the church-invading protest in Minneapolis. Like it's irrelevant to his role? pic.twitter.com/TwcNKw77mQ — Tim Graham (@TimJGraham) January 23, 2026 Here are Bash's carefully tailored softballs:  It really is a remarkable -- and historic statement. Why did you feel it was so needed right now? His [Pope Leo's] framework talked about the worry about weakness of multilateralism and a zeal for war is spreading. Look, you don't say President Trump's name in this, but your three U.S. Cardinals clearly issuing a warning about his policies. It's pretty thinly veiled. The President of the United States is not a Catholic, but the Vice President is, as you well know. I'm wondering if you got any response from either the Vice President's office or really anybody else in the administration. [He said no.] If you could give a message directly to the Vice President, who obviously is a man of deep faith, what would it be? How do you sort of see the way that he [Pope Leo]  is navigating, not just being the leader of Catholics around the world, but as an American in this particular time, given what is happening in the country of his birth?  What's your message to Americans who may be struggling with their faith during some pretty turbulent and divisive times right now? Cardinal Cupich was also spared a church-invasion question in a Monday puffball presentation with MS NOW star Rachel Maddow (but at least the commercials told you how MS NOW fans feel about organized religion).  On the Amanpour show on CNN International (which doubles as Amanpour & Co. on PBS stations), co-host Michel Martin (a moonlighting NPR morning host) interviewed Hirschfeld for 17 minutes and never touched the church invasion. For the most part, it was more of the "what would you like to preach" interview style. So, as you talk to your congregants, what are they telling you? Well, you came to national attention after remarks you made at a vigil for Renee Macklin Good, who's the American woman, you know, wife, mom, mom of three, who was fatally shot by an ICE agent earlier this month. So, the first thing I wanted to ask is, what brought you to that vigil? Here's what you said. You said, ‘I have told the clergy of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire to get their affairs in order, to make sure they have their wills written, because it may be that now is no longer the time for statements, but for us with our bodies to stand between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable.’ I have a couple questions, which is, had you gone there prepared to make the statement? Had this been in your mind and on your heart at that time, what was it that brought that forward? CNN/PBS anchor interviews the N.H. Episcopal bishop who called for "martyrdom" against ICE for 17 minutes. NEVER asks about church-invading protests. Both host and guest confuse free speech with interfering with law-enforcement actions. @abigailmarone quoted. pic.twitter.com/bVCWCeYdtc — Tim Graham (@TimJGraham) January 23, 2026 Martin's other question was about why he mentioned "martyrdom," which clearly suggests the willingness to be killed in a protest. At least Martin offered a Team Trump counterpoint, unlike Bash:  So, Bishop, I know you're aware that among the reactions are there are those who say that your words inflamed tensions or have the possibility of inflaming tensions rather than calming them. I mean, to that end, the spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE, called your remarks absurd and said that if you really want to take a stand for the vulnerable, you should stand by ICE agents who are increasingly under attack. Like, what do you say to that?.... The White House, as -- is their wont, has doubled down. They issued a statement saying, no one should follow advice encouraging them to commit crimes. Anyone who interferes with federal law enforcement operations is committing a crime and will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. That comes from Abigail Jackson, who's a White House spokesperson. What do you respond to that?

Public DomainThe victims of the Ice Box Murders, Fred and Edwina Rogers. At first, the two Houston police officers didn’t even realize they were looking at the two victims of the Ice Box Murders. They’d responded to a welfare check at 1815 Driscoll Street on June 23, 1965, and found no one at home. When the two officers opened the fridge, they thought the piles of meat were from a hog. In fact, it was the murdered couple — Fred and Edwina Rogers. They’d been brutally killed, drained of blood, dismembered, and stuffed in the refrigerator. Somebody had forcefully removed the eyes and genitals of Fred Rogers, dumped his entrails in the sewer — and vanished. To this day, the murder has never been officially solved. But some think that the Ice Box Murders may have a mystifying link with the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. The Grisly Story Of The Ice Box Murders In Texas Houston Public LibraryThe infamous ice box in question in June 1965. On the evening of June 23, 1965, Houston Police Captain Charles Bullock and his partner, L.M. Barta, were dispatched to the home of Fred and Edwina Rogers for a welfare check. Edwina’s nephew, Marvin Martin, hadn’t heard from his aunt for a worrying amount of time. Their knock was met with silence. So, the two police officers wound around the back of the house. They found a makeshift barricade of flower pots obstructing the back door, which made Bullock suspicious. When he and Barta pushed inside and entered the kitchen, his suspicions shifted into adrenaline. He later remembered that something “just didn’t feel right” inside the Rogers’ home. “I don’t know why I looked in the refrigerator,” he said. “For some reason I just opened it.” At first, Bullock and Barta thought what they were seeing was hog meat. Then they looked down. There, in the vegetable drawer, were two decapitated human heads. Edwina had been shot in the head; Fred had been bludgeoned with a hammer. But their killer had gone above and beyond simply killing the Rogers — he’d also dismembered the couple, removed Fred’s genitals, and flushed Fred’s intestines down the toilet. Quickly, the investigation into the Ice Box Murders pivoted to a single suspect: the couple’s 42-year-old son Charles. Charles Rogers lived with his parents. There was blood on the keyhole of his door. And he was nowhere to be found. Charles Rogers, The CIA, And The JFK Assassination The Houston ChronicleAfter his parents’ murder, Charles Rogers was never seen again. Charles Rogers, the prime suspect in the Ice Box Murders, was no ordinary man. He had served in World War II, graduated with a degree in nuclear physics, and spent nearly a decade working for Shell Oil as a seismologist. He would leave home before dawn, and return after dark — but no one was sure if he actually had a job. He rarely even saw his parents in person and communicated with them by slipping notes under the door. As authorities pieced together the Rogers’ family life, they found that Charles might have had a motive to kill Fred and Edwina. According to the The Ice Box Murders by forensic accountants Hugh and Martha Gardenier, Rogers had endured their manipulative behavior for years. They had taken out loans in his name, robbed him of his savings, and made his life unbearable. A nationwide search to find him, however, yielded nothing. Authorities even checked the local airfields, as Rogers learned how to fly while serving in the Navy. He was officially declared dead in 1975. But the mystery didn’t die with him. Indeed, some suspect that Charles Rogers did much more than kill his parents — and that he might have been involved in the plot to kill John F. Kennedy. According to the argument put forth in John R. Craig and Philip A. Rogers’ 1992 book The Man on the Grassy Knoll, Rogers was one of the so-called tramps spotted in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas on Nov. 22, 1963. Craig and Rogers suggested that Charles Rogers had recorded his involvement in Kennedy’s death in his diaries. When his parents uncovered the diaries, he killed them. This allegation about Charles Rogers’ past remains unproven. But the Gardeniers claim to know where he ended up. They say that they traced Rogers’ movements to Mexico, where he purportedly landed a mining job through his oil industry connections. Allegedly, he himself was murdered — with a pickaxe — by miners in Honduras. In the end, if Rogers did manage to kill his parents and disappear, his theoretical work for the CIA isn’t as outlandish as it seems. After all, he left not a single trace, completed his mission — and vanished like a ghost. After learning about the Houston Ice Box Murders, read about six serial killers who were never caught. Then, learn about the Amityville murders. The post The Case Of The Grisly Ice Box Murders That Horrified Houston In 1965 appeared first on All That's Interesting.
