“The worst of the worst,” Abbott said of the gang.

Earlier this month, Abbott announced strike teams and thousands of dollars in rewards for information leading to the identification and arrest of members of Tren de Aragua. Leaders in law enforcement say they’re trying to deny the transnational gang any foothold in Texas.

“What we know from this organization is that it is very well run, kind of like a corporation,” said retired Homeland Security Agent Ari Jimenez.

Jimenez has seen the gang explode in major cities across the country. He says this criminal enterprise usually starts with crimes that fly below the radar, including organized theft and sexual exploitation.

“Next is going to be weapon-involved crimes,” Jimenez said. “It’s gonna be a murder for hire. It’s going to be a shoot out. And, before you know it, they own and control the criminal element in the city.”

Intelligence documents obtained by the I-Team show self-proclaimed members, and those bearing the gang’s distinctive tattoos featuring a nautical compass, an eye, a rose and a clock face have been arrested around the city’s Migrant Resource Center for crimes like theft, human trafficking and possession of fake government documents.

Some, including higher profile members, had been previously arrested entering the country illegally and were subsequently released by border authorities. […]

According to Libs of TikTok, a Texas-based oil/gas company issued a memo to employees informing them that police and the FBI have warned armed Cuba and Venezuela migrant gangs are committing thefts in the Permian Basin (America’s highest producing oil field).

Here’s the memo:

Industry peers and law enforcement in West Texas (WTX) are aware of a recent increase in organized criminal activity inclusive of violent crimes, gang activity and oil field thefts in and around WTX operational areas. Specifically, regional law enforcement and the FBI advised that gang members emanating from Cuba and Venezuela are organizing and working in concert to commit thefts within the Permian Basin. These individuals and groups are armed, violent in nature and will not hesitate to use force.

Crimes associated with these groups include the theft of oil, diesel fuel, copper wire, and catalyst elements. Recent incidents have also included two assaults by water haulers who were attempting to steal oil from WTX oilfield sites. After the thieves were observed by witnesses who drove up to investigate, the thieves attempted to use their vehicles to run the witnesses off the road. In another incident, a thief, acting as a spotter and following a water hauler who had stolen oil, also attempted to run a witness off the road. There have been numerous reports of second vehicles acting as spotters for water haulers committing oil thefts.

An industry peer provided the below snapshot of a video surveillance of an armed thief checking out an area before stealing diesel from the location.

We highlighted earlier this week that law-abiding Americans must be made well aware of the cities, counties, and states that have laws, ordinances, and policies that obstruct immigration enforcement and shield illegal alien criminals from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. This is because these areas are increasingly becoming dangerous, with migrant criminals running amok. Aurora is a prime example.

It will not matter who wins the election. The flood of illegals have a purpose in the overall plan that has been unfolding. Chaos as far and wide as possible.
Massive spread across the nation!https://t.co/qFhElt4NtW

This is why.

HOLY FVCK!

A cop tells a citizen who is reporting a crime committed by an immigrant:

"I've arrested a double homicide suspect in this city before, I let him walk out the door because we're sanctuary city.

We do not report illegals, undocumented immigrants."

CITIZEN: "So… pic.twitter.com/bclVNcQPSl

Armed illegal alien gangs are now posing a threat to critical energy infrastructure in the Permian Basin. The nation is sleepwalking into a disaster.

Why isn’t this considered a national security threat by the current administration? Of course it’s because they caused it – plus, it’s an election year.

Colorado law enforcement is sending you a message: When the activation purge begins, they also won’t lift a finger to protect Colorado citizens, but they will gladly stand back and allow militant invaders and foreign terrorists to pillage entire neighborhoods at will, robbing, raping and murdering American citizens without hesitation.

YOU WILL BE ON YOUR OWN.

Calling 911 will only earn you laughter and mockery. Your Colorado governor is a treasonous fool, and your Colorado big city police chiefs hate the Bill of Rights but will do everything to protect the “newcomers” who are replacing Americans. Understand that the Democrats are in on it. They have engineered circumstances that they hope will lead to the actual mass extermination, then the replacement, of American citizens. Aurora is just a pilot model to see how far they can push it.

If you’ve never been in an active battle zone, or have never trained with live rifle fire in realistic scenarios (not just shooting paper targets at a shooting range), you truly have no idea what’s likely to be unleashed by America’s enemies in the coming months as the invaders and terrorists deploy full-auto AKs, RPGs and mortars against America’s infrastructure. Sadly most people get their battle knowledge from watching TV shows written by firearms-illiterate Leftists who think that car doors and wooden tables block rifle rounds. Most people have no idea of the difference between “cover” vs “concealment.”

They think having a couple hundred rounds is plenty for self-defense of a rural property. They don’t own nearly enough magazines (no, not “clips”) or ballistic armor. They’ve never carried a rifle on their backs with a sling while trying to do garden work at the same time. They don’t have a working night vision rifle setup, which means they are sitting ducks at night. They either don’t own an AR-15 or the one they own hasn’t been lubed or fired in 5 years and is in questionable operating condition, probably with dead red dot batteries.

Typical Americans are clueless and ill-prepared for what’s coming

Typical Americans are obsessed with watching celebrity videos, eating processed foods and jabbing themselves with reptile venom peptides that are FDA-approved as weight loss drugs. They have ZERO ability to defend themselves against determined, lean, well-trained invaders with zealot-level hatred of America and its people. Just one of these foreign militants will probably kill 100 Americans or more, on average, as typical Americans in cities are pathetically defenseless, clueless and have spent years mocking preppers and firearms experts.

With up to a 100-to-1 kill ratio, and an estimated one million military-aged foreign invaders already stationed inside the USA, it’s not outside the bounds of plausibility to understand that tens of millions of Americans may soon be slaughtered in a combined Marxist / Terrorist purge of American citizens.

There are consequences for allowing your country to be invaded while you defund police, ban the Second Amendment and turn your young men into weakling tampon Timmers. While woke, weak and wimpy Americans run around pretending that men can have babies, the invaders will be ventilating them with AK rounds and seizing their homes and neighborhoods at will. The police will do nothing to stop them, because most of the city cops are too obese to fight, and they haven’t fired their service pistol since the last qualification requirement six months ago.

America’s left-wing city dwellers are living in denial about what’s coming

They’re also about to learn something truly shocking: Rural Americans aren’t coming to save you when your cities get lit up, because rural Americans are going to protect their own towns, neighborhoods, veterans, ranchers, churches and community leaders who know the truth about what’s coming. America’s cities, sadly, will burn as they are designated “no go zones.”

Even US military troops will be incapable of policing the gang-run, terrorist-run blue cities, because the military has already sent all its ammunition to Ukraine. On top of that, America’s youngest military recruits are infested with wokeism and weakness. They brag about being LGBT but have no clue how to handle themselves in an actual firefight. Being gay or trans may win you social hierarchy points at your local libt#rd city council meeting, but it counts for zilch on the battlefield when you are trying to defend your nation against invaders.

Everybody needs to read Matt Bracken and Michael Yon, and then realize they haven’t told you even half of what they know is coming, because they don’t want to sound too scary and get banned. But trust me when I tell you that I know both of these courageous men, and they haven’t even yet described the real horrors of what they know is coming.

Prepare while you can. If you remain in the cities when this chaos is deliberately unleashed, you will almost certainly die. As Yon says, it’s time for “big boy rules.” Bad choices have bad consequences, and nobody is coming to save you. Most certainly not your government, which has conspired to engineer this exact scenario that they hope will result in your extermination and replacement. The Democrats’ war on the American people is probably only months away from going hot, due to invaders and terrorists who were deliberately let into the country by the Democrats themselves, almost all functioning as straight-up traitors to America.

Prepare for an imminent invasion and activation of those invaders within our borders. When the grid goes down, you won’t be able to access the internet and read this post anymore. You’ll have to fight to survive, mostly with no comms or reliable power grid. Good luck to all.

A number of years ago I wrote about the gang problem in Chicago, and at that time gang members outnumbered police by 10 to 1.

Unfortunately, things have gotten so much worse since then.

Today, the CPD has identified more than 280,000 gang members in the city of Chicago…

The Chicago Police Department maintains two massive gang databases, collectively labeling more than 280,000 people as “gang members.” 95% of those people listed are people of color, most being young men in their late teens and 20s, but also thousands being Black and Latinx youth and elders.

That is the size of a small army!

And it is important to note that these are just the individuals that the CPD has been able to identify and put into their databases.

There are undoubtedly more that they don’t know about or have not been able to identify.

Meanwhile, the size of the CPD has been hovering just above 12,000…

However, the size of the Chicago Police Department was essentially unchanged on Johnson’s 100th day in office as compared with his first day in office. CPD had 12,360 employees on Johnson’s first full day in office and 12,363 employees on Monday, according to a city database. The number of sworn officers has also remained steady, with 11,720 officers on duty as of May 1, and 11,722 on the force as of Aug. 1, according to a database maintained by the Chicago Police Department.

Once I had the numbers, I did the math, and I discovered that gang members now outnumber police in the city of Chicago by a ratio of 22 to 1.

So it should come as no surprise that major crime in the Windy City was way up in 2023…

Overall major crime was up in 2023 by 16%, with robberies up 23%. There is likely significant underreporting of crimes given police shortages. Over half of “high priority” 911 calls did not have an officer available to respond when the call came in. This is a huge increase compared to 2019, when 19% of all calls didn’t have an officer available.

Memphis is another city that has an absolutely massive gang problem.

It is being reported that the mayor recently met with gang leaders and “asked them to agree to a seven-day ceasefire”…

The mayor of Memphis, Tennessee, met with local gang leaders and asked them to agree to a seven-day ceasefire, as crime has seemingly spiraled out of control in the city.

The mayor said that he had talks, not “negotiations,” with Memphis gang leaders, with community representatives adding that the number of gangs in the city has also become a problem in itself.

A seven day ceasefire?

That sounds like something that would happen in the Middle East.

But of course the truth is that Memphis really has become a war zone.

If you can believe it, over 3,500 property crimes were reported in Memphis during the month of January alone…

The gang members told the mayor a recent “epidemic of car break-ins” was simply due to their younger gang members being bored and having nothing to do.

Including the break-ins, more than 3,500 property crimes were reported in January 2024 alone, according to police statistics.

Yesterday, I wrote an article about how wonderful the state of Tennessee is, but I also warned my readers to avoid the Memphis area entirely.

It really is that bad.

The Atlanta metropolitan area is also caught in a downward spiral.  Crime is completely out of control, and over the weekend a massive riot that involved hundreds of young people made headlines all over the nation…

One person was shot when suspects opened fire on police during a riot involving hundreds of ‘youths’ at a Six Flags amusement park in Georgia over the weekend, according to reports.

The shocking string of events unfolded on Saturday evening in Austell, a city in the Atlanta metro region.

Thousands of people turned out for opening day at Six Flags Over Georgia before the event devolved into extreme mob violence.

Hundreds of mostly-younger guests began fighting and sowing chaos throughout the park, forcing evacuations as security lost control of the crowd.

We wanted to push every shred of traditional morality out of our schools.

So the truth is that we have brought this on ourselves.

Our young people didn’t have to turn out this way.  If we had raised them differently we would have gotten different results.

Right now, the state of California is experiencing an absolutely relentless crime wave, and authorities are telling us that approximately 300,000 gang members currently reside there…

The California Department of Justice estimates that there could be as many as 300,000 gang members in this state.

California has had a problem with crime for decades, but never anything like this.

According to one recent survey, a whopping 86 percent of business owners in the state believe “that crime has increased in their area”…

More than 86% of business owners in California say that crime has increased in their area, while 67% from the same survey claimed to be considering moving their headquarters out of the Golden State, according to the latest numbers from RedBalloon and PublicSq.’s Freedom Economy Index.

At this point, I don’t know why anyone would still want to live there.

Two California business owners that were interviewed by Fox News explained why they are thinking of leaving…

“The building where I have my office has just installed floodlights throughout the parking lot, installed new doors and upgraded the security system to improve safety,” Carvalho detailed. “Throughout the neighborhood, there are signs reminding people not to leave valuables in their cars.”

“It used to be this very nice town, now it is just horrible,” Falwell said. “We have been in our home for 17 years, we have had mail theft. The crime has impacted my desire to even leave my house or business.”

When crime is so bad that you don’t even want to leave your own home, it is definitely time to look for greener pastures.

Of course the truth is that crime is getting worse virtually everywhere, and the open border policies of the Biden administration are certainly not helping matters.

This week, we learned that the Biden administration has actually been flying hundreds of thousands of “asylum seekers” directly into the United States…

A Freedom of Information Act lawsuit has revealed that the Biden administration has flown at least 320,000 migrants into the United States in an effort to reduce the number of crossings at the southern border, according to Todd Bensman of the Center for Immigration Studies.

“The program at the center of the FOIA litigation is perhaps the most enigmatic and least-known of the Biden administration’s uses of the CBP One cellphone scheduling app, even though it is responsible for almost invisibly importing by air 320,000 aliens with no legal right to enter the United States since it got underway in late 2022,” wrote Bensman.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) had initially refused to disclose information about the flights, which use a cell phone app, CBP One, to arrange.

“Under these legally dubious parole programs, aliens who cannot legally enter the country use the CBP One app to apply for travel authorization and temporary humanitarian release from those airports. The parole program allows for two-year periods of legal status during which adults are eligible for work authorization,” Bensman continues.

Overall, it is being estimated that there will be over 8 million “asylum seekers” living in the U.S. “by the end of September”…

More than 8 million asylum seekers and other migrants will be living inside the U.S in legal limbo by the end of September — a roughly 167% increase in five years, according to internal government projections obtained by Axios.

We are witnessing a spike in migration that is unlike anything we have ever seen before.

And this is one of the primary reasons why gangs are experiencing such explosive growth.

The stage is being set for societal chaos on an epic scale.

Unfortunately, there is no turning back now.  Our leaders have been making disastrous decisions for a long time, and those disastrous decisions are going to have extremely bitter consequences.
