ICYMI: “Largest-ever federal anti-transnational crime operation nets 1,296 Tren de Aragua arrests nationwide”
Official release from The White House, not original reporting. Charges are allegations unless a conviction is stated.
President Donald J. Trump is systematically dismantling the bloodthirsty Tren de Aragua gang that Biden’s open borders allowed to pour into American communities. The Trump Administration has launched the largest federal campaign against transnational crime in U.S. history — identifying, arresting, and removing these vicious foreign criminals and driving violent crime down nationwide.
The Washington Examiner highlights the Trump Administration’s latest effort:
“The Trump administration has waged an aggressive campaign against Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, whose members entered the United States through the vulnerable U.S.-Mexico border during the Biden administration.
The White House, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Justice launched Homeland Security Task Forces in 2025 with the goal of identifying, finding, and removing criminal rings and terrorist organizations embedded in U.S. communities, particularly Tren de Aragua.
Task force data publicly released for the first time to the Washington Examiner showed law enforcement arrested 1,296 Tren de Aragua gang members between Jan. 20, 2025, and Oct. 8, 2026, and charged nearly 350 Tren de Aragua members and associates with federal crimes.”
