Illegal Immigrant Gang Let In By Kamala Has Terrorized Aurora
October 11, 2024
Kamala Harris' open border policies have allowed Tren de Aragua, a gang of Venezuelan illegal immigrants, to terrorize Aurora, Colorado.
President Trump will be visiting Aurora today to discuss how he will deport criminal illegal immigrants and make America safe again.
A recent report noted that the “number of Venezuelans coming to the border has skyrocketed from 50,000 in FY 21 to nearly 335,000 in FY 23.” This surge in illegal immigration corresponds with a decline in deportations. Data shows that deportations of convicted criminals have decreased 74% under Border Czar Harris.
These permissive open border policies have allowed Tren de Aragua to flourish. Even CNN reported earlier this year that Tren de Aragua is "infiltrating the US."
In Aurora, Tren de Aragua's rise has been a disaster for residents
- A law firm hired to investigate Tren de Aragua's takeover of an apartment building found that the gang has been “engaging in flagrant trespass violations, assaults and battery, human trafficking and sexual abuse of minors, unlawful firearms possession, extortion, and other criminal activities.”
- The Denver Post reported last month that the gang has terrorized residents at several apartment complexes.
- Residents and local officials have raised the alarm about Tren de Aragua's presence in Aurora.
- One resident shared now viral footage of gang members toting guns in her apartment complex.
- Aurora's Mayor Mike Coffman said in August that at least two buildings "have fallen to these Venezuelan gangs." He said, "I think we’re the victim of a failed policy at the southern border … you’ve got these massive waves of migrants coming across the border that many of them cross illegally, were arrested, ask for political asylum, were not adequately vetted, were released into the country."
- Aurora City Council member Danielle Jurinsky said: "They have shoved their way into apartments. They have changed locks on residents' locks to the units and locks to exterior entrances and buildings." Jurisnky said that residents "have been living in absolute terror."
- Aurora Council Member Stephanie Hancock said at a roundtable: "These gangs prey on that vulnerability and the fact that we don’t have teeth with what law enforcement can do and what ICE can."
- Recent surveillance footage showed members of Tren de Aragua "pointing their weapons at a driver of a car outside an apartment building in Aurora, Colorado."
- In September, the New York Post detailed how Aurora "became a migrant gang war zone after Tren de Aragua took over apartment complexes in quiet suburb."
