FIRST ON FOX: The Trump administration demanded answers from 7-Eleven’s COO following an altercation where U.S. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino and federal agents were denied service at a Minneapolis gas station in late January.
Michael Lynch, deputy administrator of the General Services Administration, sent a letter to Doug Rosencrans, 7-Eleven’s COO, on Feb. 5 requesting any information from a potential internal investigation into the altercation.
Lynch noted that a federal government partnership could be in jeopardy between the Trump administration and the world's largest international chain of convenience stores.
"As 7-Eleven, Inc./Speedway LLC locations accept the GSA SmartPay fleet card for fuel and other authorized purchases on behalf of Federal fleets —i ncluding those operated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security — these actions raise concerns about the ability of Federal vehicle operators to access necessary fuel and services at convenient locations," the letter reads.
A viral video captured by conservative activist Cam Higby posted on Jan. 21 shows Bovino leaving a Speedway gas station, a chain which is owned by parent company 7-Eleven, followed by a manager who said, "I don’t support ICE, and nobody here does."
GSA said in the letter that "the reported refusal appears to have encompassed both in-store purchases and potential fuel transactions."
According to the GSA’s website, the Fleet Card is issued "to pay for fuel and maintenance for your GSA Fleet-leased vehicle," and says the card is accepted at 95% of U.S. fuel stations in all 50 states, U.S. territories and Canada.

Go Virtue Signal, Go Broke.
What a bunch of retards.
Play stupid gems, win stupid prizes. At the least the manager should be fired. I’m all for terminating any and all connection with 7-11/Speedway. I for one will never shop at one again. There are plenty of other gas stations and convenience stores.
According to Creepy Joe, 7-11 is usually run by Pakistanis.
The only 7-11s left around here tend to be “let’s make a dope deal” hot spots
7-11’s used to be so clean and nice. The new ones are crapholes within a year nowadays.
7-11 is Japanese owned.
Please let us practice our First Amendment right of freedom association and prohibit whomever we'd like from our businesses.
I guarantee you won't like where this goes.
Every Speedway I have been in has been pretty nice. I didn’t realize they were owned by 7-11.
Yeah, not many Speedways in central Florida. A new 7-11 opened up near us, the only store of any kind for 2 miles and it’s a mess after 4 years or so. The pumps frequently don’t take a card so you’re forced to go inside. I had words for the 300 lb. “manager” wearing a sloppy tee shirt, shorts and crocks. I guess he didn’t realize that, to that point, I was spending $300 a month there.
followed by a manager who said, “I don’t support ICE, and nobody here does.”
Make that sonofabitch number one on the employers to be investigated list for illegal employees.
Pronto.
That’s absolutely right.
7-11s are usually owned by the Injuns and the Packis. Americans need to start boycotting those Nazi ahos.
