Brace yourself: Violent migrant crime is on the rise.
The brutal Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has now expanded to at least 16 states and Washington DC, according to an internal Homeland Security memo.
The District, Virginia, Montana and Wyoming are the latest additions to the growing list of states suffering from the gang’s presence.
And the criminals’ “violent tendencies” have only increased, the memo warns.
Make no mistake: this is not anti-migrant fear-mongering, as the left might claim; it comes from officials of Alejandro Mayorkas’ Department of Homeland Security, The same agency that has not only failed to keep violent gangs out of the country, but actually has done so invited them in.
President Biden’s come-one, come-all border policy, which is overseen by DHS, opened the doors for that millions of migrants, including gang members who enter due to the lack of vetting.
So much for the Prez’s and Mayorkas’ numerous claims that the border is secure or at least “under control”; now even DHS itself is admitting (at least to itself) that crime and violence among migrants is skyrocketing.
“As the population of Venezuelan nationals continues to increase, the potential for violent TdA migrants is highly likely,” the memo says.
TdA crime has indeed done that al cruel: one member, Jose Ibarra, is now on trial for the murder of 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley. (Team Biden even paid for his flight from NYC to Georgia, where the murder took place.)
In Aurora, Colorado, armed criminals have taken over entire apartment complexes, beating and extorting owners.
In the DC area and northern Virginia, they freely rob and assault victims.
In New York they attacked the police, beat up two of them, committed robberies and smuggled weapons.
They are also believed to be behind the sex trafficking on Roosevelt Avenue in Queens.
This is the pathetic legacy that Biden and Mayorkas are leaving behind.
And it’s the crisis President-elect Donald Trump and his crew – Kristi Noem at DHS and former ICE boss Tom Homan as border czar – have (thankfully) promised to make it priority number 1.
This means that the current border madness, which is causing millions of people to enter illegally, must immediately end.
And aggressive pursuit and deport criminal migrants are at the heart of the problem.
They best act quickly: America doesn’t need more Laken Riley horror shows.
