Former President Trump detailed his "Operation Aurora" during his rally in Colorado Friday afternoon — a program at the federal level that would remove illegal immigrant members of the dangerous transnational Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua.
Trump held a rally on Friday in Aurora, Colorado, where he formally proposed the removal program. The program is expected to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to target and dismantle "every illegal migrant criminal network operating on American soil."
"My message today is very simple," Trump said Friday. "No person who has inflicted the violence and terror that Kamala Harris has inflicted on this community can ever be allowed to become the president of the United States."
Trump told the crowd in Aurora that "Colorado is going to vote for me because I am going to make Colorado safe again. We're going to make you safe. We're going to do it fast."
