Blanche provided details about some of the horrific crimes committed by TdA terrorists. He mentioned that in 2024, four men murdered a father, then kidnapped his 13-year-old daughter and 12-year-old nephew. Five alleged members of TdA have since been arrested in connection with these crimes.
In all, more than 350 of these TdA terrorists have been arrested during Trump’s second term. They have been charged with several violent crimes, including sex trafficking, weapons charges, “drug trafficking, robbery, ATM jackpotting, and other widespread financial crimes.”
Welp, President Trump did warn them.
AAG Blanche also stated that the recent devastating earthquake in Venezuela has not hindered or interrupted the Trump administration’s efforts to bring TdA terrorists to justice.
“It’s a horrific tragedy, and I think at a time when over the past week, 10 days, a lot of the effort we have been entering into has been to save lives and to help the communities there recover, I view that as a separate track from the work we’re doing here to combat TdA,” Blanche said. “Whether they are here, in Colombia, or Venezuela.”
Keep it up, Mr. Acting Attorney General.
