Torren de Aragua, a Venezuelan Biden “immigrant” gang with a beachhead in the United States, has taken over four apartment complexes in San Antonio, Texas.
The gang, imported by President Joe Biden, operates not only in Texas but also in Colorado, Illinois and New York.
The latest exposé by the Daily Mail lays out a horrifying picture of an organization that those involved call “the epitome of evil.”
In addition to drugs, they also prostitute women and children.

“Just last week, a small group of police officers raided an apartment complex in San Antonio and arrested 19 people, including four gang members,” the website reported.
Law enforcement officials confirmed that TdA had been operating at Palatia Apartments for five to six months. They illegally occupied vacant properties and rented them out to other immigrants, used them as bases for cocaine dealing, and, most horrifyingly, used them as brothels to recruit women. children.
But DailyMail.com has now revealed that this apartment break-in is just the tip of the iceberg in a major city in South Texas, with at least three other rental properties also being taken over by criminal gangs.
The website does not reveal other locations as police are investigating after confirming the information on the website.
The news sounds as if San Antonio is about to become a war zone.
The website continued that in the early hours of October 5, police raided the Palatia complex after learning that gangs were “controlling the area.” The attack also included drones and helicopters.
“Every department was here,” the woman told the website. “They were wearing helmets and bulletproof vests.”
Police searched 300 homes and arrested 19 people, again including four TdA members, the website continued.
William McManus, the city's top police officer, said: “One TdA member was identified as an 'enforcer' for the gang, and 15 were in the country illegally.”
He added that thugs, proudly displaying gang tattoos and wearing red clothing, were squatting in vacant rooms selling drugs and people.
“They had women and children, and they were prostituting the women and children,” said one resident.
TdA also threatened the apartment manager who discovered the criminal plot.
The work of an undercover police officer who infiltrated a gang led to the attack on Palatia.
Headquarters in Juarez
As The New American reported yesterday, the gang has expanded over the years due to the mass migration of Venezuelans to South and Central America. And now, of course, it's a threat across the United States.
In August, the Daily Mail revealed that TdA had moved its headquarters to Juarez, Mexico, across the border from El Paso.
There they are “kidnapping asylum-seeking immigrants attempting to enter the United States,” the website reported.
In South Texas, TdA set up shop in an area just north of San Antonio's Immigrant Resource Center. The center is a shelter run by Catholic Charities and has hosted more than 120,000 migrants since the organization began tracking it in 2023.
(McManus) added that authorities are aware of other locations where criminals are operating and will make more arrests.
In one of the complexes managed by TdA, a female resident told the website that all the units in the back row are occupied by men who are not working but are paying rent in some way.
“At another property, a maintenance worker believed that TdA members were living there because he witnessed a Venezuelan walking around shamelessly showing off his famous Torren de Aragua tattoo. “, the website reported.
“They don't mind keeping secret who they are,” the worker added. “I think in their country it's a big thing to be part of that group, so maybe they feel like it's a big thing here too.”
The maintenance worker was able to explain in detail the famous train tattoo associated with TdA.
El Paso, New York, Chicago
TdA also took over a hotel in El Paso, and police responded to about 700 calls. In Dallas, a TdA member was charged with a brutal robbery of a woman in her home.
They did the same thing in Aurora, Colorado, where four gang members were charged with attempted murder.
All four were caught at the southwest border trying to enter the country illegally, but were released under Joe Biden's longstanding order.
In New York City, TdA members as young as 11 years old are robbing pedestrians and tourists in Times Square. Gang members carry guns and knives.
The New York Post reported that police said the 21 children had formed a group that “hanged out every day” and boasted about their exploits on social media.
Their name: Los Diablos de la 42 — The Devils of 42nd Street. Police arrested them for 50 crimes, but due to the Empire State's lenient approach to crime, not one went to prison.
Diablos operates out of an “immigrant” shelter set up at the Roosevelt Hotel, the newspaper reported.
The gang also assaulted two New York City police officers.
This gang is also large in Chicago and is fighting black gangs.
Former gang members told the New York Post that an all-out gang war was on the horizon.
“If the black gangs here get fed up with the illegal and criminal behavior of immigrants and non-citizens, the city of Chicago will go up in flames, and there will be no National Guard, no government,” he said. You can do it when bloodshed spreads on the streets. It would be black people against immigrants. ”
