Nearly 800 illegal aliens arrested in massive Florida ICE operation: 'Tidal Wave', 100+ arrested in raid on illegal Colorado Springs nightclub
2025-04-27
[FoxNews] Multiple illegal aliens arrested had violent criminal convictions

In a groundbreaking joint effort, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Miami and Florida law enforcement agencies arrested nearly 800 illegal immigrants during the first four days of Operation Tidal Wave, a massive, multi-agency immigration enforcement crackdown.

Fox News obtained information on some of the ICE arrests from the ongoing operation, which include a convicted Colombian murderer, alleged MS-13 and 18th Street gang members and a Russian with an Interpol Red Notice for manslaughter.

Jose Sanchez Reyes, a Colombian illegal immigrant who entered the U.S. as a getaway, was convicted of homicide in his home country.

Rafael Juarex Cabrera, a Guatemalan illegal immigrant and alleged MS-13 gang member, has illegally reentered the U.S. three times and was convicted of felony reentry.

Savva Klishchevskii, a Russian illegal immigrant, has an Interpol Red Notice out of Russia for vehicular manslaughter.

Aron Isaak Morazan-Izaguirre, a Honduran illegal immigrant, is a known or suspected terrorist member of the 18th Street gang and has allegedly reentered the U.S. illegally two times.

Operation Tidal Wave remains ongoing, and Florida continues to work with ICE to enhance President Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda.

Over 100 illegal migrants drop to the ground and are arrested as cops bust Colorado nightclub

[DM] More than 100 illegal migrants were dramatically arrested after cops swooped in and busted a nightclub in Colorado in the early hours of the morning.

The Rocky Mountain Division of the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) led a multi-agency enforcement operation alongside local police and federal agents at 3am Sunday, the agency said.

Dozens of armed personnel were waiting outside the doors as partyers fled from the building - while women in dresses and heels looked bewildered at the ordeal.

Another woman, who was on the phone at the time, dropped to the ground while cops pointed guns in her direction after bashing in the door of the illicit establishment.

Another man ran out of the nightclub, and upon seeing the officers he desperately put both arms in the air and dropped to his knees. Another was seen on video dropping his bottle of beer on the ground before listening to cops' instructions.

Sirens glared in the background as officers shouted for people to get on the ground - while some of the revelers screamed and attempted to run away from the situation.

The operation itself was part of a probe into drug trafficking, prostitution and crimes of violence taking place in the club, the DEA added.

Authorities made their way to an underground nightclub in Colorado Springs - about an hour away from Aurora, where Venezuelan criminal organization Tren de Aragua is based.
Aren’t there and awful lot of current and former military there? You’d think illegals would find anywhere else more congenial…
Tren de Aragua, MS-13, and Hell's Angels gang members are known to frequent the underground club. It is unclear how many members were there at the time of the raid, DEA Special Agent in Charge Jonathan Pullen said.

More than a dozen active duty service members were also in the building, some as patrons and others working security.
Guess not. Huh.
The United States Army Criminal Investigation Division is now a part of the investigation into those individuals, Pullen said.
Good.
Many of those detained were not in the country legally and taken into Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody. Drugs and weapons were also seized during the operation, the agency said.

Pink cocaine, also known as 'tusi,' was among the drugs found, Pullin said. At least a dozen small packages of drugs were found as investigators are testing them to identify the substances.

Pullen said many of those detained will face federal immigration charges, while some were arrested with outstanding warrants.

It is unlikely they will face drug charges because it was hard to prove possession during the raid, he added.

This comes just after ICE agents arrested nearly 800 illegal immigrants after launching a statewide crackdown in Florida. Operation Tidal Wave - a joint effort by ICE agents, Homeland Security and local law enforcement - resulted in officers arresting 780 migrants. As part of the massive sweep, 275 people were arrested with final orders of removal, meaning a court has mandated that they leave the country already.

ICE had used their 287(g) authority which allows for state and local law enforcement to be deputized and to arrest those in the US illegally.

The Trump administration has sought to bring in local authorities to help in their immigration operations to speed up deportations.

'This is one of the first large-scale missions we've done like this ever,' ICE director Todd Lyons told ABC News.

'We brought a "whole the government" approach with cooperative jurisdictions that want to help ICE secure communities in neighborhoods and remove public safety threats from our neighborhoods.'

#3  As the atmosphere becomes unwelcoming and the benefits evaporate, more and more people are reportedly self-deporting, NN1N2. There will indeed be less low-hanging fruit, but it will become ever easier to identify.

By the end of Trump’s previous term, it was reported that more had self-deported than arrived during his term, leading to shrinkage of the illegal population.

The estimated 10.5M US illegals here already. are costing Taxpayers about $155 Billion a year in various ways.

Which is roughly $14.7K per Illegal.

According to sources, since Trump took office, roughly 150.8K illegals have been deported and at least that many BLOCKED from entering. Despite Liberal Democrap's whinings.

ICE has saved US Taxpayers $2.2B in just 100 days for just those deported.

In short, ICE maybe saving the US Taxpayers more than its annual budget.
But there is still roughly 10,349,200 to go, and the low-hanging fruit will get thinner.
