Trump Plans to Use 1798 Law to Dismantle Illegal Immigrant Gang Tren de Aragua — and Kick Criminals Out of the US; Trump Calls for Death Penalty for Migrants Who Kill Americans

Trump plans to use 1798 law to dismantle illegal immigrant gang Tren de Aragua — and kick criminals out of the US:

Former President Donald Trump traveled to a gang-ravaged Denver suburb Friday to announce plans to invoke a 226-year-old law to dismantle and deport illegal immigrant criminals across the US.

The Republican nominee, 78, told supporters in Aurora, Colo. he would go after the Venezuelan gang “Tren de Aragua” (TdA), whose members have infiltrated the city of just under 400,000.

At least 10 soldiers of the violent prison gang have been arrested in Aurora, where criminals have wreaked havoc and even taken over apartment complexes.

“What are they doing to Colorado? They’re ruining your state,” Trump asked at the top of his speech before taking aim at his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.

“Kamala has imported an army of illegal alien gang members and migrant criminals from the dungeons of the Third World,” Trump said.

“I will rescue Aurora and every town that has been invaded and conquered,” he went on, saying his administration will either “put these vicious and blood thirsty criminals in jail” or “get them the hell out of our country.”

“These are stone cold killers,” Trump added, urging Centennial State voters to turn out to protest what Democratic authorities have done “to the fabric of your culture.”

Two of the most heinous recent crimes believed to have involved illegal migrants were committed by members of TdA, authorities believe.

Jose Ibarra, the alleged killer of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, is a gang member — as are his two brothers, Homeland Security sources previously told The Post.

Additionally, the two migrant men accused of killing Houston 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray are suspected of having ties to the gang. —>READ MORE HERE

Trump calls for death penalty for migrants who kill Americans:

Donald Trump portrayed migrants as dangerous criminals during a rally in Aurora, Colorado, on Friday, calling for the death penalty for migrants who kill U.S. citizens as he escalates the anti-immigration rhetoric that has fueled his presidential run.

Flanked by posters of alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, Trump also said that if elected he would launch a national “Operation Aurora” to target the gang members.

Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has noticeably hardened his anti-immigration rhetoric in the final weeks of the Nov. 5 election campaign, where he aims to defeat Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Illegal immigration is a top voter concern, and Trump is seen by most voters as the person best able to address it, opinion polls show.

“I’m hereby calling for the death penalty for any migrant that kills an American citizen or a law enforcement officer,” Trump said to loud cheers from a large crowd of supporters.

Trump has already proposed an expansion of the death penalty for other offenders, including people convicted of sex trafficking women and children.

Nearly half of U.S. states ban the death penalty. While there is a federal death penalty, it is rarely used, according to the Death Penalty Information Center, a non-profit group. An expansion of eligible crimes would require an act of the U.S. Congress.

One of the hallmarks of Trump’s third presidential run has been his focus on what he calls “migrant crime”, even though academic studies show immigrants do not commit crimes at a higher rate than native-born Americans.

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment related to the death penalty proposal.

Vice President Harris toughened her stance on border security after becoming the Democratic nominee in August, and faults Trump for helping stifle a bipartisan border security bill in Congress earlier this year. —>READ MORE HERE
