MS-13 wants to send ‘younger, more violent offenders’ to the US, officials say

FOX: Frustrated MS-13 gang leaders feeling the pressure from the Trump administration’s crackdown are looking to send “younger, more violent offenders” to the United States to take over the role of being enforcers, officials say.

The revelations were made Thursday during a House Committee on Homeland Security meeting on fighting international criminal organizations, where officials discussed the arrests and imprisonment of MS-13 members and leadership over the last year.

“They’re very much interested in sending younger, more violent offenders up through their channels into this country in order to be enforcers for the gang,” said Stephen Richardson, assistant director of the FBI’s criminal investigative division, according to VOA News.

Peter King, R-N.Y., the committee’s chairman, said his staff recently visited El Salvador and was told by law enforcement there that the gang — which mostly operates out of prisons in the Central American country — is “frustrated that MS-13 members in [the U.S.] are not violent enough.”  read more

  1. MS-13 should be classified as a terrorist organization (as should the Mexican cartels). I just read a post by a Mexican professor who presents the Leftist view that it’s Trump’s fault and these are just lost kids who need an intervention not mass incarceration.
    We have 1/4 of El Salvador living here right now (most illegally). We do not need La Raza or NACLA.org determining the domestic or foreign policy of the United States, especially when it undermines the safety and welfare of our citizens.

    If we don’t get some of this stuff right under Trump, America First will not matter because America be in a hospice with a death rattle, waiting to expire.

  2. It’s time to clean out the enforcers – if you can’t abide by orders from the DOJ (if’s it’s clean that is) to go after everyone suspected of gang activity AS terrorism then find somebody who will — allow strong enforcement efforts focusing on prevention (it’s not like you can’t see the evidence of gang behavior – it’s not invisable ink after all).

    Our problem is the lingering actions meant to subvert the DOJ, FBI, and even DOD done by the obammer parasites.

    I happen to catch Fox and Friends early a couple days ago and the had some high ranking ICE guy on. He was touting the victories and they questioned him about the info in your link. This guys claims it is Obama holdovers working independently of ICE management or mission. He claimed they would have the problem mopped up soon. Makes you wonder how deep and committed the swamp is.
