The violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua has officially brought their reign of terror to American streets, with two gang affiliates shot Thursday night after weaponizing their vehicle against a U.S. Border Patrol agent in Portland, Oregon.
According to the Department of Homeland Security, the two suspects who attacked the CBP agent are confirmed affiliates of Tren de Aragua - the same brutal criminal organization that has been wreaking havoc across South America and infiltrating American communities through Biden's wide-open border disaster.
This attack represents exactly what Trump warned about during his campaign - that Biden's reckless border policies weren't just letting in families seeking a better life, but dangerous criminals and gang members who pose a direct threat to American citizens and law enforcement.
Biden's Border Legacy: Gang Violence on Main Street
While details of the shooting are still emerging, one thing is crystal clear: this violence is a direct result of the previous administration's deliberate destruction of border security. For four years, Biden and his enablers allowed millions of unvetted individuals to pour across our southern border, including known gang members and criminals.
Tren de Aragua isn't some small-time street gang - they're a transnational criminal organization known for human trafficking, drug smuggling, and extreme violence. And thanks to Biden's policies, they've now set up shop in American cities.
"This is exactly why President Trump made border security his number one priority," said one immigration enforcement official. "We can't protect Americans when we don't know who's in our country."
Trump's Mission: Clean House
The timing of this attack, just two weeks before Trump's return to the White House, underscores the massive cleanup job facing the new administration. Trump's promised mass deportation operation isn't just about immigration law - it's about removing dangerous criminals who never should have been here in the first place.
How many more Border Patrol agents will be attacked by foreign gang members before we secure our border once and for all? How many American communities must suffer because politicians prioritized virtue signaling over public safety?
