S. Customs and Immigration officials and Florida law enforcement conducted "Operation Tidal Wave," a four-day operation that led to the arrest of nearly 800 illegal immigrants. This was a major success. It was a large-scale operation. This was just a preview of what’s to come throughout the nation. All of these people are now off of our streets who otherwise have been acting with impunity and terrorizing US communities," Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant DHS Secretary, said. Among those arrested were convicted murderers, multiple alleged and suspected gang members, and a Russian wanted by Interpol. In Colorado, another mass arrest took place where 114 illegal migrants were taken into custody during a multi-agency raid of a nightclub led by the DEA in tandem with local police. This is an underground illegal nightclub, OK, and what was happening inside was significant drug trafficking, prostitution, crimes of violence. We seized a number of guns in there," Jonathan Pullen of the DEA Rocky Mountain Field Division said. The club is about an hour from Aurora, Colorado, where the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua has a significant presence. Meanwhile, the courts are beginning to push back against Trump's method of deporting illegal immigrants. A federal judge in El Paso ordered the release of two Venezuelan nationals held by immigration authorities, ruling that the federal government failed to provide enough evidence for them to be classified as "alien enemies."that the government needs to give individuals deemed "alien enemies" a chance to fight deportation in court. The El Paso judge stated that the federal government must give detainees 21 days to contest their status. As Donald Trump approaches the 100-day mark of his second administration, a new Fox News poll shows that 55% of voters approve of how he is handling border security.
