The real baddies are the husbands, sons, cousins and uncles of the people refusing to testify. They don't testify because the neighborhood will be treated to their heads rolling around the floor of the neighborhood bar.Granny says, "Dat's right - the Trumpster gonna put MS-13 inna dumpster...

US, El Salvador Team Up to Target MS-13 Gang Members
July 27, 2017 | The White House announced Thursday that El Salvadorian prosecutors arrested hundreds of MS-13 gang members in El Salvador over the past three days and that an MS-13 gang member behind several high-profile murders in that country, who had fled to the U.S., is now in ICE custody.
Robert Hur, principal associate deputy attorney general at the DOJ, made the announcement during a White House press briefing, also attended by Tom Homan, acting director of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "Indeed, earlier today, just hours ago, El Salvadorian prosecutors announced that they have filed charges against, and arrested, over the past 36 hours, hundreds of members of MS-13 in El Salvador. Many of the defendants are members of MS-13 Peajes Locos Salvatruchos clique who are centered in the La Paz department of El Salvador," Hur said. "Earlier this year, members of this MS-13 clique committed several high-profile murders in El Salvador. The shooter in these murders fled to the United States and is now in ICE custody pending immigration proceedings. This prosecution showcases just how closely we are working with our partners in El Salvador to combat MS-13. Specifically, U.S. law enforcement agents with ICE, who are on the ground in El Salvador, are coordinating with their counterparts here in the U.S. to ensure that the shooter is removed from the United States as quickly as possible to face charges in El Salvador," he said. "This investigation is being handled by Salvadorian gang prosecutors who are trained and mentored by embedded DOJ prosecutors in El Salvador and Salvadorian police officers who are trained and mentored by the FBI and advisors from the State Department. At the request of Salvadorian prosecutors, the Justice Department has also arranged to have an essential witness to the murders transported to El Salvador for court proceedings," Hur said.
He explained that MS-13's motto is "Mata, viola, controla," which translates kill, rape, and control. "They seek to live up to this motto through truly shocking acts of violence designed to instill fear. Vicious machete attacks, execution-style gunshots, gang-rape, and human trafficking. They use whatever they can get their hands on -- guns, knives, machetes, baseball bats, tire irons, or their fists and feet -- not just to inflict violence. They use violence to shock, to send a message, and to control territory here in the U.S. and in Central America," Hur said.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions has answered President Donald Trump's call to target transnational gangs and directed the DOJ to move forward "aggressively" target MS-13. "Specifically, pursuant to the president's direction and executive orders, the attorney general has directed the department's law enforcement agencies -- ATF, DEA, FBI and the Marshals Service, as well as federal prosecutors across the country -- to prioritize the prosecution of gang members, specifically MS-13," Hur said. "The Attorney General has issued charging guidance regarding violent crime and criminal immigration enforcement, both of which directly target MS-13 members and their associates. In addition, the Department of Justice has requested funding for 300 more federal prosecutors to focus specifically on violent crime and criminal immigration enforcement," he said. "We've also prioritized multi-agency and cross-border collaboration in order to attack MS-13 from all angles. The Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security are coordinating our anti-gang efforts to ensure that we bring both criminal and immigration laws to bear in the fight against transnational gangs," Hur added.
The DOJ has also "revitalized the Institutional Hearing Program,which brings immigration judges to Bureau Prisons facilities to adjudicate the immigration status of federal criminal alien inmates while they're incarcerated," resulting in quicker deportations after criminals finish serving sentences in U.S. prisons. Homan said ICE's Homeland Security Investigation, also known as HSI National Gang Unit, already arrested 3,311 gang members nationwide since the beginning of January. He named two targeted operations: "Project New Dawn, a recent gang surge led by ICE HSI netted 1,378 gang arrests" and "Operation Matador" in New York state in which over 100 gang members and affiliates were arrested since May 9th, "the vast majority of MS-13 members." Homan is expected to join the president in Suffolk County, N.Y., on Friday to discuss transnational gangs.

ICE Director: âSanctuary Cities Are a Criminalâs Best Friendâ
July 28, 2017 â In a White House press briefing Thursday, a top immigration enforcement official said sanctuary cities make it almost impossible to fulfill a priority of the Trump administrationâpushing back against the MS-13 gang. âSanctuary cities are a criminal's biggest friend,â said Tom Homan, acting director of the U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement.
Criminal organizations like MS-13 that smuggle drugs, weapons, and people, according to Homan, use sanctuary cities as a form of advertisement. âIf you're an alien smuggler and you're smuggling people in this country for a living, that is one sales pitch â âwe can get you to a sanctuary city that will help shield you from immigration,ââ he said. âIf we send the message that if you get into the country, you get by the Border Patrol, and don't get arrested by local law enforcement for another crime, and no one is looking for you -- that is a magnet; that is a pull factor,â Homan added.
Spaces such as these, Homan said, spark incidents like the one he responded to in Victoria, Texas, where he found a five-year-old among 19 dead illegal aliens tied to a tractor trailer. âWhat do you think that five-year-old went through the last 30 minutes of his life? What do you think his father went through the last 30 minutes of his life looking down at his child, knowing he couldnât help him because they were locked in the back of a tractor trailer?â Homan said.
But immigrants and local citizens are not the only ones in danger in these areas. âSanctuary cities not only endanger public safety, they endanger my law enforcement officers, because when we can't get a criminal alien -- violent alien -- out of a county jail, it means one of our officers will knock on the door -- which anybody in law enforcement knows, that's one of the most dangerous things to do,â Homan said. âThe community is put at risk, our officers are put at risk, and the alien himself is put at risk.â Homan repeatedly called for a strong local partnership across these sanctuary cities to aid the effort of dismantling MS-13, since it is the state and local law enforcement that have the first contact with this transnational gang. âCooperation is critical,â he said. âSanctuary cities need to help us keep their community safe.â
Ignoring the illegal population that commit egregious crimes in these sanctuary cities means âbankrolling these criminal organizations,â Homan said. âIf you're in sanctuary cities, that's where we'll send additional resources to look for you at your home, at place of employment,â he said. Although sanctuary cities still pose as a major obstacle, Homan believes progress is being made. More and more local law enforcement from many jurisdictions are coming to the table, he said. âThe 287(g) agreements -- we've already doubled those agreements on this administration,â Homan said. âICE expects to triple the number of these agreements by the end of this year.â

âWe Will Find You, We Will Arrest You, We Will Jail You, and We Will Deport Youâ
July 28, 2017 | In a speech in Long Island, N.Y., President Donald Trump declared that U.S. authorities will find, arrest, jail and deport every gang member and criminal alien who are threatening the community.
âBut I have a simple message today for every gang member and criminal alien that are threatening so violently our people: We will find you, we will arrest you, we will jail you, and we will deport you,â he said. In a speech that centered on the administrationâs efforts to crackdown on the gang MS-13, the president pledged to ârestore safety to our streets and peace to our communitiesâ and âdestroy the vile criminal cartel, MS-13 and many other gangs.â âMS-13 is particularly violent,â he said. âThey donât like shooting people because it's too quick, it's too fast. I was reading -- one of these animals was caught -- in explaining, they like to knife them and cut them, and let them die slowly because that way it's more painful, and they enjoy watching that much more. These are animals.â
Trump pointed out that he was the one to call attention to the problem of illegal immigration when he first announced his presidential run. âAnd if you remember just a little more than two years ago, when I came down the escalator with Melania, and I made the speech -- people coming into this country. Everyone said, what does he know? Whatâs he talking about? And there was bedlam. Remember bedlam?â he said. âAnd then about two months later, they said, you know, heâs right. So Iâm honored to have brought it to everybodyâs attention, but the suffering and the pain that we were going through -- and now you can look at the numbers -- itâs a whole different world,â the president said.
He blamed the rise of MS-13 on the âweak political leadershipâ of the Obama administration and sanctuary cities. âFor many years, they exploited Americaâs weak borders and lax immigration enforcement to bring drugs and violence to cities and towns all across America. They're there right now because of weak political leadership, weak leadership, weak policing, and in many cases because the police werenât allowed to do their job,â Trump said. âIâve met police that are great police that arenât allowed to do their job because they have a pathetic mayor or a mayor doesn't know whatâs going on,â he said. âAnd MS-13, the cartel, has spread gruesome bloodshed throughout the United States. We've gotten a lot of them out of here. Big, big percentage, but the rest are coming -- theyâll be out of here quickly, right?â he said. âFew communities have suffered worse at the hands of these MS-13 thugs than the people of Long Island. Hard to believe. I grew up on Long Island. I didn't know about this. I didn't know about this, and then all of a sudden, this is like a new phenomenon,â the president said.

The opposite is true .sanct cities are better at busting these guys .
Trump has all the immigrants freaking out that they refuse to testify or show up for court because of fear of being deported . So the real baddies are walking .
Whoever thinks these are innocent immigrants should be offered up as a sacrifice to Santa Muerta, the God of MS13. He requires human sacrifice.
