The Lethal Legacy of Alejandro Mayorkas

In a recent news, we learned that the murderous Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) is now in 16 states in the U.S., committing crimes openly and brazenly. These gang members’ many horrific acts include robbery and murder, gang rape, assaults, shakedowns, burying people alive, and even beheadings and public executions. They are reputed to be more violent than the notorious Mexican gang MS-13.
TdA first gained notoriety on August 18, when a video showed gang members wandering through an Aurora, Colorado apartment building, brandishing guns, knocking on doors, even breaking off locks and entering apartments unbidden. In this instance, it appears they were shaking down residents for their rent money with threats of violence and the lethal weapons to make good on them.
It turns out this apartment building in Aurora was one of three that TdA had taken over. While residents and people in neighboring communities voiced fear for their safety and the safety of their families, apologists pooh-poohed and minimized the incidents. Many in the mainstream media soft-pedaled the gang’s presence, claiming they’re not “terrorists” but just petty criminals. The mayor of Aurora and a City Council member downplayed the threat in their official newsletter. The position several in the left media took was that the furor over TdA was overblown. They weren’t taking over cities; they were just terrorizing them. So that made it all right.
I remember having a discussion on Facebook with a friend who had a similar rationalization: “It was just one apartment building. It wasn’t the whole town.” No big deal. This is a bright, conservative man. I was dumbfounded. I wanted to echo Chris Pratt in the movie Jurassic World, after Vincent D’Onofrio’s character goes on an insane rant: “Do you hear yourself when you talk?”

Myorkas, Biden and Harris are accomplices as well as personnel in the NGOs that are deeply involved.

Of all the snakes in the barrel....if anyone deserves a perp walk it’s that SOB.
I know DJT isn’t much for payback but that Ahole really does need to be held to account.

The author Eric Dawe loses credibility from the start by idiotically calling MS-13 “the notorious Mexican gang”.
not that what he says is wrong

Bingo!
No one wants to publicly state that they did it deliberately to aid the cartels.
It’s so obvious and it’s not just illegal immigration.
The destruction of the schools, The defunding of the police, Actually operating buildings where drug addicts can shoot up, Facilitating homelessness, Destroying education, Legalizing marijuana, Decriminalizing hard drug use, Providing drug paraphernalia, Eliminating neighborhood policing and allowing gangs to shoot it out on a regular basis.
It’s so frigging obvious.

Alejandro was born in Havana, Cuba, the son of Anita and Charles Mayorkas, who owned and operated a steel wool factory. His father was born in La Habana, Cuba, to a father of Turkish Jewish background and a Polish Jewish mother. His mother was born in Bucharest, Romania, also to a Jewish family, and left for Cuba in the 1940s, because of the Nazis. His family moved to Miami, Florida, U.S., in 1960, because of the Castro regime, and later to Los Angeles, California.
From: https://ethnicelebs.com/alejandro-mayorkas He's not even Latino, and they kept referring to him as a 'person of color'.
