Gov. Abbott: ‘We Are Going to Purge Tren De Aragua from the State of Texas,’ They Are MS-13 on Steroids

‘We are locking them up’

EXCERPT:

ABBOTT: "So, listen, the gang is the most treacherous gang across the North, Central or South America. They are considered to be MS-13 on steroids. They operate at a higher level of sophistication than MS-13, but they go into areas and threaten, sometimes kill people. They are credited with killing Laken Riley, for example. They are threatened to be — they're credited to be the ones that shot and harmed police officers in New York. They committed crimes even in the state of Texas. The good news is, after I made the declaration putting them on the terrorist organization list, we have begun to make arrests, in the state of Texas, we are tracking them down, we are arresting them, we are locking them up, because we are going to purge Tren De Aragua from the state of Texas."
