As we’ve been reporting, President Donald Trump, new Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and border czar Tom Homan have unleashed the forces of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, and agents have been busy rounding up illegal aliens—including many hardened criminals—and repatriating them to their home countries.
Although the left is crying over the lawful treatment of our “friends and neighbors,” many of the folks they’ve nabbed are the last people you’d want living next door to you. Among those captured was a vicious ringleader of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua, which has spread to at least 16 states and whose members recently made the lives of residents in Aurora, Colorado a living hell under the reign of terror.
The suspect’s name is Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, and he’s a real sweetheart.
🚨Tren de Aragua ringleader Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, 25, arrested in NYC during a pre-dawn ICE raid.
This violent criminal, wanted for a kidnapping tied to the Aurora, CO break-in, was hiding across from an elementary school.
Trump’s crackdown is cleaning up the streets!Why did Biden let them run free in the first place?

New DHS Head Noem Hits the Ground Running, Joins ICE Raid in 'Sanctuary' NYC to Nab 'Dirtbags'
But now, as Noem told interviewers Wednesday, the news gets even more sinister as it turns out Pacheco had recently been in the market for... grenades. What the heck could he want those for? Mayhem, of course, but what type specifically?
Noem gives the details:
Noem had joined federal immigration authorities Tuesday in New York City for the sweeps, which officials said were targeting violent criminals in major cities and elsewhere.
On Wednesday, Noem addressed the arrest of who she described as a "ringleader" of the Tren de Aragua gang during an appearance on "Fox & Friends."
"He had just been a part of a gun weapons exchange and was trying to buy grenades," Noem said. "Why would anybody in this country need to buy a grenade and go out and perpetuate violence?"
Why indeed?
Noem argued that despite all the whining from the left, people who actually have to live in the midst of this type of terror are thrilled that the new administration is getting these guys off the streets:
"What was amazing is you'll hear people and Democrat leaders in different cities, like New York City, some of their city council members have tried to attack what we're doing as far as enforcing our laws," she said. "But the people on the streets are not with them."
"It was amazing to hear people and see them as they walked by taking their kids to school, going to work, just walk by us and quietly say thank you, thank you for being here," Noem continued. "And that means a world to those officers that are out there risking their lives to bring safety back."
Noem also announced that she was rescinding a last-minute order by former DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas extending Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelan "refugees" for some 600,000 Venezuelan "refugees."
Watch:
Nobody said turning this country after four years of the Biden malfeasance administration was going to be easy. It’s stunning, however, just how quickly the new team is making a difference in making America safer.
Even Democrat Rep. Ritchie-Torres (NY) knows we need change:
In my Congressional District in the Bronx, ICE detained Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, a violent gang leader wanted for kidnapping. I strongly favor surgically removing violent criminals, especially gang leaders, from the Bronx.
If you are among the activists who want to open your your homes and communities to violent gang leaders, you more than welcome to roll out the red carpet for them. But we in the Bronx want them gone.

"Surgically"? So Claymores are out?
Off to Gitmo to be fitted for a waterboard.
I had to look it up :) Big sword!
Ya know, I don’t care if politicans change what they say and how they vote just because the winds are blowing that way.
If the majority of the country is behind something...even in 2025 that means that it’s likely the right thing.
NYC feels a little different.
What did Churchill say?
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
Maybe something bigger than people know is afoot.
It wont last...but perhaps for a season new york will elect some sane leaders...not many...but a lot more than usual!
This is very serious
What a disgrace. She has no business wearing that badge.
No Claymores ?
Dang, refund ?
nevermind, will be put to good use eventually .. feral government ..
-fJRoberts-
p
did willy give Kamala those pearl necklaces?
Trying to buy explosives!
C’mon, Man! Where is your multicultural sensitivity? He was just going to bake a cake.
I bet he was planning to make a bomb.
Apparently the shakedowns in Aurora were just a fund raising operation for a bigger project.
2 million+ gotaways didn’t walk away from free phones, free travel, free lodging, vouchers and documents to stay here “legally” until some far off court date unless they had something seriously sinister to hide.
No-No-No, it was for a Baby Gender Reveal Party.
He was going to blow up the Pink or Blue Box depending on the outcome of the event. If a Girl then💥BOOMBA💥 the Blue Box and vice-a-versa if a Boy then 💥BOOMBA💥
the Pink Box.
Just gonna be a blast of a Party either way !!!🤪
10 IEDs found at US-Mexico border in cartel gunfight:
“The IEDs were found by Mexican authorities after Tucson border patrol observed gunshots at the U.S.-Mexico border and a Tucson supervisory border patrol agent arrested an armed person on the U.S. side who had a loaded AK-47 rifle, two loaded AK magazines, loose rounds and a handgun.”

Yes, a Claymore is indeed a big sword.
But there is another Claymore. Ask your favorite veteran.
Pond fishing?
She was a struggling vice president who saved up of course.
For peaceful purposes.
