Tren de Aragua Targeted By ICE Raids
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recently conducted a raid on a makeshift nightclub in Adams County, Colorado, leading to the arrest of dozens of illegal migrants linked to the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. The operation resulted in the seizure of drugs, weapons, and cash as part of an investigation initiated during the Biden administration. Reports suggest that the U.S. is negotiating with El Salvador to accept deportees from various countries, including members of Tren de Aragua.
Following the DEA’s actions, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detained around 50 individuals, many connected to Tren de Aragua. DEA agent Jonathan Pullen said, “DEA’s Rocky Mountain Field Division has been investigating TdA drug trafficking since last summer, and today’s successful operation shows that the men and women of DEA will not rest until our communities are safe from this gang and the drugs they peddle.”
Pullen added, “For the last several months, DEA has been running an ongoing investigation against the Venezuelan gang called TdA,” saying the party was “invitation-only” to Tren de Aragua members and associates.
This “Safe Third Country Agreement” could redirect asylum seekers to El Salvador instead of the U.S., complicating the immigration landscape.
