Venezuelan deportation flights to start as soon as next week: source

Deportation flights to Venezuela are expected to restart as early as next week, a senior ICE official told The Post.

The Trump administration is “reasonably confident” the flights will commence “early next week,” said the source.

“I have a feeling that we’re going to be able to remove a lot more people a lot more quickly,” the source added.

President Trump recently announced that Venezuela has agreed to take back their citizens — including Tren de Aragua gangbangers — after the country blocked them for nearly a year.

“We are in the process of removing record numbers of illegal aliens from all countries, and all countries have agreed to accept these illegal aliens back,” the president wrote on Truth Social on Saturday.

“Venezuela has agreed to receive, back into their country, all Venezuela illegal aliens who were encamped in the U.S., including gang members of Tren de Aragua.”

The flight deal followed a recent meeting between US envoy Richard Grenell and Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro — with Grenell bringing back six American citizens who had been held by the regime.

If would save fuel, and thus contribute less to Global Warming, if these flights instead landed in San Salvador.

They should not only accept their trash, they should pay for the delivery.

Cheaper. Less wear and tear on the tires. Quicker. I’m a big fan.

Whoever leaked the ICE raid in Colorado to pick up 100 violent, TdA gang members should be on those flights as well.

They want to protect violent Venezuelan gang members so much let them go and live in their country under Maduro, not ours.
