Australian National Review – Victor Responds: Venezuelan Gangs Take Over Colorado Buildings, Thanks Kamala (VIDEO)

Open borders, woke ideology, hateful regulations, and other liberal constructs are weakening U.S. national security. Illegal immigrants are no longer called illegal, and even a violent gang recognized by the U.S. government as a threat to national security is treated with kid gloves to avoid offending law-abiding illegal immigrants from Venezuela and their supporters.

In June, I reported on Tren de Aragua, a violent transnational Venezuelan gang that entered the U.S. through the southern border and now operates in states across the country. The group’s existence and threat, as well as its growth in the U.S., have been well-documented in government reports. The National Security Council has issued a statement announcing this new national security threat, the Treasury Department has recognized it as a transnational criminal organization, and the U.S. State Department is offering a $12 million reward for information leading to the capture of several of its leaders.

It is clear that the group exists and poses a major threat to the nation. However, in recent days, a number of stories have appeared in secondary, regional, and right-wing media outlets claiming that Tren de Aragua is taking over several cities in Colorado, specifically Aurora and Denver. These reports claim that the mayors have asked the governor for help, but the governor said the gang takeover was just a figment of their “imagination.” At the same time, other media outlets are claiming that the gang takeover story is untrue. The major, national mainstream media outlets are not reporting the story.

According to the New York Post, the gang has taken over numerous apartment buildings, and viral videos circulating on social media seem to support these claims. These videos are also being aired by local affiliates of major news organizations, such as KDVR in Denver, NBC Montana and CBN News.
