It would be great if those are the ones being apprehended, but no, they are not. ICE too chicken shit to go up against the real gang members, so they abduct soccer players and fruity, gay makeup artist to fill their quotas. |
1. I applaud anyone who goes after violent criminals and tries them in a court of law. Please, by all means, go ahead with legal criminal investigations. 2. Rethink your language "these Venezuelans in Tren de Aragua"... who do you mean? An estimated 90% of the Venezuelans sent to El Salvador have NO CRIMINAL record and no credible gang links 3. The actual numbers of TdA in the United States is quite low. DHS estimated 600. Other experts have estimated 100. In any case: they are not committing violent crimes "on a daily basis in the USA." That is patently FALSE. However, I give my thanks to the law enforcement efforts to find them and arrest them. |
This is not true. You are posting misinformation. |
Whole lot more than 600 TdA in the USA:
“ United States edit Tren de Aragua began emerging throughout the United States during the early 2020s, which saw a surge of migrants crossing the Mexico-U.S. border, particularly from Venezuela.[30] Telemundo, citing multiple criminal cases against suspected members of the gang, wrote in March 2024 that the group evidently "also has an increasingly widespread presence in the United States".[31] In January 2024, the Federal Bureau of Investigation confirmed reports that the gang was operating in the United States.[32] On 11 July 2024, the US Treasury Department and the White House announced sanctions against the gang and designated it a "transnational criminal organization". The State Department is also offering a $12 million reward for information leading to the arrest of the organization's leaders.[33] In 2024, U.S. officials at the U.S.-Mexico border implemented enhanced interviews of single Venezuelan male migrants in order to screen for Tren de Aragua members. Tren de Aragua members have been linked to crimes throughout the United States, including murders.[2] Tren de Aragua first appeared in Chicago and its suburbs in October 2023.[14][34] Chief Garry McCarthy of Willow Springs estimated that hundreds of gang members were present in the city.[34] The Chicago Sun-Times reported in November 2023 that "A Sun-Times analysis found shoplifting and domestic violence arrests, but little proof of the gang's presence among migrants."[35] In New York City, the gang has been linked since 2022 to shootings, thefts in retail stores, street robberies, forced prostitution, extortion, and drug dealing.[2][30][36] Police say that members live or have lived in the city's migrant shelters, and are believed to recruit there.[30] In Aurora, Colorado, surveillance footage of gunmen entering apartments went viral in 2024,[37][38] leading the city's mayor, Mike Coffman, to state that the gang had "infiltrated" various apartment buildings in the area.[39] These claims were challenged by the Aurora Police Department, which stated that, "[b]ased on [our] initial investigative work, we believe reports of [Tren de Aragua] influence in Aurora are isolated."[37] Four men out of the six seen in the video were arrested, and five buildings at the apartment complex were ordered to be shut down, as they were described as a "criminal nuisance."[40] Contentions that Aurora was overrun by the gang were highlighted by a number of news outlets. President Donald Trump, as part of his presidential campaign's focus on illegal immigration, maintained that parts of the city were controlled by the gang.[41][42] To combat the purported gang activity, hundreds of ICE agents participated in raids during the months of January and February 2025. One alleged gang member was arrested.[43] President Donald Trump reiterated previously debunked claims about an alleged takeover by a Venezuelan criminal gang at an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado.[18] These claims, widely circulated on social media by pro-Trump communities and amplified by conservative commentators, were refuted by local authorities, who denied that the gang known as Tren de Aragua had taken control of the location. Nevertheless, the rumors continued to spread, fueled by posts that manipulated information through the reuse of old videos, data misrepresentation, and the combination of decontextualized material, according to the News Literacy Project.[18] The misinformation was labeled as false by Meta, but it continued to spread across various platforms, where unverified posts surpassed 26 million views. Experts noted that this strategy aligns with common patterns of accounts that disseminate fake news to promote political agendas. Other unfounded narratives, such as the accusation that Haitian immigrants were harming pets, were also repeated by Trump.[18] FBI agents in El Paso, Texas reported that 41 suspected members of the Tren de Aragua were arrested in 2023.[44] In 2024, a state investigator told KUTV that a number of crimes in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area were linked to Tren de Aragua, including a September 2024 shooting in Herriman. Most of the reported crimes included theft, illegal drug distribution, and sextortion.[45] |
What these goons need to remember is that the felon has immunity, they don’t. Noem, Holman, Bondi, Rubio and crew will end up in jail. |
Well These are the people they need to round up and arrest. These people have been arrested with verifiable criminal records, unlike the 80-90% of the people already smuggled into CECOT by the USA government. |
X1000 they even admitted it. Said they take to many agents to apprehend. So, yes, they are taking college students and women for general deportation. |
Here is an article from Americas Quarterly, an organization that leans right and states that the US government under Biden was hugely overblowing the threat of TdA. https://americasquarterly.org/article/how-much-of-a-threat-is-tren-de-aragua-in-the-u-s/ And yes, I blame Biden's administration for turning too much attention on one gang over others that do much more damage in the US. And I blame the Biden administration for the misguided focus on tattoos, which turns out to be foolish and red herring since the gang doesn't use tattoos as identifiers. But at least Biden's administration respected our consititution and the law. |
Fingers crossed!! |
Good luck with that. Current over/under for pardons issued by Trump before January 20, 2029 is 8000. THat's roughly the jobs listed in the Plum Book. My bet is over, since he'll party every ICE agent, FBI, DEA, DHS, etc. |
He will only pardon those he knows about, he is too lazy and doesn’t care about the minions that are doing his bidding. |
+1 Deporting randos has no effect on stopping gang violence. So not only is this cruel, but it is ineffective. Lose-lose. |
Exactly! Why don't they put their resources into infiltrating, investigating, bringing RICO charges against, and dismantling foreign crime syndicates/criminal gangs instead of making a big show of deporting randos with tattoos? You know, as was done with the Mafia, the Aryan Brotherhood, the Bloods and Crips, and even MS-13 in the past. |
