Earlier this month, four Venezuelan members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang who were arrested in Colorado were confirmed as illegal aliens, according to a statement made by an ICE spokesperson to Fox News. The Venezuelan nationals were in the age ranges of 19 through 24, and they all crossed the southern border via Texas illegally in 2022 and 2023, under the Biden regime’s watch. Aurora police arrested all four of them and ice placed detainer requests on two of the Venezuela nationals. The four Venezuelan nationals were arrested following a shooting which took place close to Nome Street...

Forget about the ducks and geese disappearing from public parks. In this beleaguered city, residents say the biggest problem, by far, is that wild-driving Haitian migrants — unfamiliar with US road laws — are turning the streets into combat zones. And the result can be deadly. The family of Springfield grandma Kathy Heaton experienced this firsthand on Dec. 1 — a day after her 71st birthday — when a Haitian migrant ran her down while she was collecting her garbage cans. And the driver got off scot-free. ... Kathy was struck so violently that both her socks were left behind...

An illegal migrant convicted of a violent assault on Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts was released — and then went on to allegedly rape a child just months later — despite ICE requesting he be handed over to them, the feds say. ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in Boston said it had to ask to take custody of Brazilian national Warley Neto, 24, three times before federal agents were finally allowed to grab him. Two of the towns that were involved int the case — Edgartown and Tisbury — have declared themselves sanctuary cities. Neto was taken into custody by...

The Venezuelan “Tren De Aragua” gang is now taking over a Texas hotel amid the rise in violent and disturbing illegal alien crimes currently plaguing the nation. According to documents released on Monday, the El Paso County Attorney’s office has filed for a temporary injunction, a restraining order, as well as an original petition for abatement of a common nuisance against a hotel over allegations surrounding suspicions of criminal activity involving “Tren De Aragua” gang members. Officials are seeking to shut down Gateway Hotel and hold its owner Howard Yun responsible for allegedly allowing the property to turn into a...

Concerns over the Biden-Harris border crisis have surged amid a wave of horrific news stories of crimes conducted by suspected illegal immigrants, and a new poll shows that Americans blame “border czar” Vice President Kamala Harris. In the survey for the National Sheriffs’ Association provided to Secrets, just 29% approved of the job Harris has done to fix the “root causes” of illegal immigration, with 49% grading her a “D” or “F.” And support for a border wall, started during the Trump administration, has grown to 65%. Surprisingly, 50% of Democrats want the border wall completed or expanded. ... The...

A suspected Venezualan gang member who is not a U.S. citizen now has an ICE detainer hold after he was accused of sexually assaulting a juvenile female in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, according to Prairie du Chien Police Chief Kyle Teynor. The suspect, Alejandro Jose Coronel Zarate, 26 of Venezuela, is believed to be a member of “Tren de Aragua,” a violent Venezuelan gang, Teynor wrote in the Sept. 6 press release. That’s the same gang that sparked massive outrage and headlines after a video emerged showing gang members at an Aurora, Colorado, apartment building. According to online court records,...

Texas GOP Rep. Chip Roy released a white paper breaking down the scale of the ongoing border crisis taking place under the Biden-Harris administration. Millions of illegal migrants have been released into the interior United States since President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris entered the White House, a record number of suspected terrorists have reached the border and hundreds of Americans have died on average from fentanyl poisoning every day, according to a report compiled by Roy’s staff and exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The Republican lawmaker is calling on Congress to take more permanent...

America can no longer ignore the consequences of its failed experiment with sanctuary cities and unchecked illegal immigration. The problem has metastasized beyond our southern border and now threatens communities throughout the nation... The latest outrage is happening because of the loud-and-proud sanctuary city of Denver, Colorado, where foreign gangs have found sanctuary alongside the illegal immigrants. Mayor Michael Johnston, the third-worst sanctuary mayor in America, has championed an effort to fund myriad programs for illegal aliens at the expense of police, public parks, and Department of Motor Vehicles budgets, among other legitimate concerns of citizens. As a result, nearly...

Migrant gangs are turning Aurora, Colo., apartment complexes into hellholes, and the Democratic governor is turning a blind eye. It’s an unhappy consequence of being a suburb of sanctuary-city Denver: Venezuelan migrants have spread from the Mile High City, with gang-affiliated ones claiming apartment buildings as their turf, terrorizing residents. One chilling video shows suspected Tren de Aragua members stalking through the complex with guns. Another, from the same complex, shows two men breaking into a unit with a tire iron. Mayor Mike Coffman confirmed that at least two buildings have been taken over, calling it an “organized criminal effort,”...

A stunning 75% of arrests made in midtown Manhattan in recent months are of illegal aliens "for crimes like assault, robbery and domestic violence — and locals can thank their support of Democrats' sanctuary laws for the mess. “New York City eliminated a tool to get rid of violent criminals. What a mess,” one former prosecutor at the Queens District Attorney’s Office ... “The sanctuary city law is pathetic. It’s disgusting. It’s crazy.” ... New York's new problem is with illegal aliens. Period. ... Across New York, recently arrived migrants are flooding the criminal justice system — at far higher...

From George Orwell’s 1984 comes one of the author’s most memorable lines: “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”Well, while the fictional party of Oceania illustrated a society in which the people were to dismiss reality in authoritarian submission, Colorado governor Jared Polis prefers to gaslight us, describing the “evidence of [our] eyes and ears” as a mere figment of our “imagination.” We don’t need to “reject” anything because it’s all just in our crazy heads!Yesterday I wrote a blog on a surreal and terrifying situation in...

By the end of Biden’s term in office, his DHS will have arrested and released or allowed into American via the CBP One App and released over 1,000,000 illegal alien Venezuelans. It has been reported beyond argument that Venezuela has emptied her insane asylums and prisons and directed those individuals to America. What has happened to Venezuela’s murder rate? Well, Venezuela now claims the lowest murder rate in the last 22 years! I wonder what the number of murders of American citizens are at the hands of illegal alien Venezuelans. I would need a lot more space on Substack to...

The report was issued by House Judiciary Committee Republicans.. Nearly 100 illegal immigrants on the terror watch list have been released into the United States during the Biden administration, while Border Patrol agents have encountered migrants on the watch list from dozens of different countries... "Under the Biden-Harris Administration, of the more than 250 illegal aliens on the terrorist watchlist who were encountered by Border Patrol at the southwest border between fiscal years 2021 and 2023, DHS has released into American communities at least 99, with at least 34 others in DHS custody but not yet removed from the United...

It sounds like common sense, but the radical left elected officials in our state continue to reject this notion, disrespecting the voices of our lawful Arizona voters...' In a decision released Thursday, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals determined that illegal immigrants were not allowed to vote in Arizona. ... However, the ruling will apply only through the primary elections.. With an appeals court scheduled to hear the case in September, it leaves open the possibility that the Gov. Katie Hobbs’s outrageous election-law loophole to let illegals vote in federal races may yet be reversed ahead of the Nov. 5...

As the nation’s largest southern border crossings finally receive mainstream media coverage years into an unprecedented illegal immigration crisis, untold numbers of “fighting age males” dressed in military uniforms are entering the United States through remote areas with no Border Patrol presence. It is a palpable security lapse unlikely to be reported by most news outlets and local, federal, and state law enforcement sources have provided Judicial Watch with detailed accounts, reports, diagrams, and photos of the situation which is terrorizing residents in a once harmonious Arizona town just a few miles from Mexico. They blame the Biden administration’s catastrophic...

While the mass migration crisis has overwhelmingly taken place at the southern border between the United States and Mexico, there is a similar record-breaking surge across the northern border between the United States and Canada as well... data from Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shows that fiscal year 2024 has currently seen 12,859 illegal aliens cross the northern border. This marks a far larger amount than the previous three fiscal years under Joe Biden. By comparison, there were just 916 northern border crossings in fiscal year 2021, followed by 2,238 in fiscal year 2022, and 10,021 in fiscal year 2023....

Judge Josh Hill set Ramos’s bail at $10 million.. ... One of the illegal aliens who faces charges of raping and murdering 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray wore an ICE ankle monitor during the attack. We already know neither of the accused illegal aliens should have been in the U.S. ... Franklin Jose Pena Ramos, 26, one of the suspects behind the murder, appeared in court Monday at Harris County Criminal Court, where it was revealed that he was wearing the ankle monitor at the time he allegedly murdered Nungaray. The ankle bracelet was provided to him when he was arrested by...

Before we get into this abysmal segment, let’s not forget that this network is doing its job: keeping liberal blood pressures low by feeding the sheep grade-A liberal propaganda. It’s not a shock that MSNBC host Joy Reid and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) would label the rape of a minor by an illegal alien as “fearmongering.” I’m not sure it is, given that it’s true. An illegal alien was busted for raping a 13-year-old in Queens, New York, this week (via ABC 7 NY): A 25-year-old Ecuadorian has been arrested in connection with the "horrific" rape of a 13-year-old girl...

An illegal alien from Mexico, deported 16 times from the United States, is accused of killing a 64-year-old man from Bailey, Colorado, in a vehicle crash. Ignacio Cruz-Mendoza, a 47-year-old illegal alien, has been arrested and charged with vehicular homicide, vehicular assault, reckless driving, and driving without a commercial driver’s license in connection to the death of 64-year-old Scott Miller. According to the Colorado State Patrol, Cruz-Mendoza was driving a semi-truck for the Indio, California-based Monique Trucking company on Highway 285 near Conifer, Colorado, when the vehicle veered off the road, causing the pipe and angle iron he was carrying...

On Tuesday, the Biden administration plans to announce an executive action protecting undocumented spouses of American citizens that would shield about 500,000 immigrants from deportation, according to four sources familiar with the matter. “This is the biggest thing since DACA,” said one of the sources, an immigration advocate, adding that it was a smart political move by the Biden administration. The program, known as “parole in place,” would also make it easier for some undocumented immigrants to get a green card and a path to U.S. citizenship. The sources also say that the undocumented spouses would be allowed to obtain...
