U.S. Cusutoms and Border Protection commissioner resigns

Chris Mangus has officially resigned from his role as U.S. Customs and Border Protection commissioner.

The secretary of Homeland Security called on Mangus to resign earlier this week, over reports of leadership turmoil and a shutdown of communication at the Department of Homeland Security.
Mangus initially said he would not be stepping down from his position.

His recent resignation is effective immediately and Deputy Commissioner Troy Miller will serve in the interim.
