For years, MS-13’s impact on the U.S. was local—confined to specific neighborhoods and cities scattered across the country as the gang used violence to secure and hold turf.
Then, federal officials tracked an alarming development. As MS-13’s influence grew, so did its ambition to leverage its network of local franchises into a cohesive, national brand. That would vault MS-13 into territory once occupied by the Mafia, and now held by Mexican drug cartels.
A series of trials that wrapped up this summer in Boston shows how MS-13 is pushing to make that leap by streamlining its management structure and creating uniform standards, much like a multinational company. The question, one that will determine whether MS-13 can make the jump to national significance, is whether that transformation can impose order on its unruly, violent young members.
The group, partly because of its success in the U.S., has become a political football, with President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions using gruesome acts by MS-13 members to push the administration’s tight immigration policy. The attorney general has called MS-13 “one of the most dangerous groups in America,” while Mr. Trump has declared its members to be “thugs” and “animals.” Democrats and lawmakers in favor of looser restrictions say their rhetoric is overblown.
Federal and state law-enforcement officials say MS-13 gang membership has grown by several thousand members over the past decade or so. It stretches to at least 40 states and the District of Columbia, according to the Justice Department.
“They have definitely showed their organizational capacity in terms of ordering violence and in terms of recruiting and replenishing the ranks,” said Derek N. Benner, a top official at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations.

The Democrats are organizizzzed!
Don’t jail and try them in court, and then imprison them at US Taxpayers’ expense.
Simply kill them on capture.
Maggots and vultures gotta eat, too.
I was at a Training Class for WMD & Terrorism when I was in the Water Treatment Business.
At one point the Teacher (who was from The Department of Homeland Security) asked who We would consider to be a Threat to a Treatment Plant or Distribution System?
Several Operaters said: upset customers, eco nuts, etc.
I tossed out MS-13 and She gave Me a look of suprise then spun and added it to the list on the Whiteboard.
Shortly after that We broke for Lunch. I’d brought Mine being the cheap (or frugal depending on Your view) type. She waited till most people were gone and then came over and asked how I knew about MS-13. Now this was back before they were widely known like Today.
I told Her from “My news and info site”
She asked what site is that? I told Her FR. She says I think I’ve heard of that one, I think. As she jotted it on a little notepad she had, slipped it in her pocket and changed the subject to where I was from.
YES!!!! I thought that i was the only one to say that.
If MS 13 were smart they would align with the progressives and get their protection. As in the 1930s, fascism needs thugs to intimidate and bully decent people.
Of course, I wish MS 13 failure at every turn.
The dems are hoping they can organize before November.

“Don’t jail, try then imprison them”
Cain’t sheep dip’m and in view of their mindset and documented performance, what else is a feller to do? Some form of extra-judicial justice? “Gangs” have been with US since day-one but those of recent Mexican or Central-American origin have been tolerated far too long.
Here is the left’s response (barf alert)

Yep.
Put a $1,000 bounty on their heads.
I like that!
When the gang guts, stabs and beheads a man in a public park, that is the definition of organized. They need deorganized.
It is here with the knowledge and assistance of the democrats. It will expand with the help of the democrats, particularly nancy pelosi who thinks they’re nice people.
News flash! Nancy and Chuckie have set up a Go Fund Me account for MS13 and are enlisting fellow democrats to encourage the savage rape and murder against Trump Administration employees and anyone wearing a MAGA hat.
Fake and gay.
MS-13 is very organized has been from day one. First members were ex-mil special forces
They could always merge with antifa and/or black panthers.
From what I have seen as a teacher, gangs recruit the laziest and the dumbest kids, so... I don’t know if organization is going to be a reliable item in their skill set.
