Trump, Tren de Aragua, and NYPD’s ongoing battle against the infamous gang in New York

Tren de Aragua (TDA), the infamous street gang founded in Venezuela whom President Donald Trump invoked when he announced his usage of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport suspected members, has made dangerous inroads in New York City.

President Trump squarely pointed to TDA as one of his chief reasons for exercising the more than 225-year-old law to expand executive deportation authority. The White House said Sunday more than 300 TDA members had been rounded up and shipped out to El Salvador.
