Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem delivered a crushing blow to one of New York's most violent criminal organizations Thursday, announcing that Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrested 54 members and associates of the notorious Trinitarios Dominican gang in a coordinated operation dubbed "Operation Salvo."
The gang was directly linked to the shooting of a Customs and Border Protection officer in New York City, marking another horrific consequence of the Biden administration's open border policies that flooded American communities with violent criminals.
"During our investigation, we learned that these scumbags were affiliated with the transnational criminal organization, the notorious Trinitarios gang in New York," Noem declared during her press conference, pulling no punches in describing the criminals who terrorized American streets.
This massive takedown represents exactly the kind of swift, decisive action Patriots voted for when they returned President Trump to the White House. While Biden and his Democrat accomplices spent four years rolling out the red carpet for gang members, drug dealers, and human traffickers, the Trump-Vance administration is already delivering on its promise to restore law and order.
"Biden/Democrats brought so much CRIME, Terrorism, Human Smuggling, Narcotics, Armed Robberies to U.S. with the Open Border," one social media user noted, capturing the frustration of millions of Americans who watched their communities become war zones under Democrat rule.
The coordinated crackdown targeted what federal authorities describe as one of the region's most violent organizations, with ICE agents working methodically to remove these "menaces to society" as one Twitter user praised the operation.
This is just the beginning, folks. Secretary Noem and the entire Trump administration are making it crystal clear that the days of coddling foreign criminals are over. Every gang member, every cartel operative, every violent criminal who waltzed across Biden's open border is now living on borrowed time.
How many more American law enforcement officers had to be shot before Democrats finally cared about border security? The answer doesn't matter anymore – because President Trump is back, and the deportation machine is just getting started.
