Feds bust massive illegal alien ‘terrorist’ nightclub hotspot in surprise raid, sweep in 100

April 28, 2025 | | Print Article

The latest Colorado raid roped in scores of illegal aliens at a hotspot for “Tda and MS-13 terrorists” within hours of a massive announcement from Operation Tidal Wave.

As sanctuary status-claiming leftist politicians in the Centennial State focused on advancing gender ideology, President Donald Trump’s administration continued efforts to restore national sovereignty, public safety, and law and order via mass deportations. A busy weekend for federal law enforcement included busting a nightclub in Colorado Springs in addition to nearly 800 arrests in Florida.

Sharing details of the Colorado operation, the Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) Rocky Mountain Division posted on X Sunday morning that 114 illegal aliens had been arrested at a nightclub frequented by Tren de Aragua and MS-13 gang members, where more than 200 people had gathered. “[Department of Homeland Security] has taken more than 100 illegal aliens into custody. Drugs and weapons have also been seized at this underground nightclub in Colorado Springs.”

The multi-agency operation also included a U.S. Postal Service inspector, an IRS Criminal Investigations agent, and members of the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Division. Speaking with Denver 7, DEA Rocky Mountain agent Jonathan Pullen explained the latter would be dealing with active duty servicemembers who were said to have been present at the club.

According to the DEA, “more than a dozen active duty military were patrons or security guards.”

“This morning @DEAHQ apprehended over 100 illegal aliens at an underground night club frequented by Tda and MS-13 terrorists. Cocaine, meth, and pink cocaine was seized. 2 people were also arrested on existing warrants,” offered Attorney General Pam Bondi who noted that law enforcement was “achieving results” toward the president’s goal of making America safe again.

Likewise, Trump himself posted to Truth Social Sunday, “A big Raid last night on some of the worst people illegally in our Country — Drug Dealers, Murderers, and other Violent Criminals, of all shapes and sizes, and Judges don’t want to send them back to where they came from. If we don’t win this battle at the Supreme Court, our Country, as we know it, is FINISHED! It will be a Crime ridden MESS. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Meanwhile, the launch of Operation Tidal Wave amounted to the arrest of around 800 illegal aliens in its first four days as ICE Miami partnered with Florida law enforcement.

Among those arrested were alleged gang members from MS-13 and 18th Street, a convicted Colombian murderer, and a Russian slapped with an Interpol Red Notice for manslaughter.

Alleged MS-13 member Rafael Juarex Cabrera, a Guatemalan national, was convicted of felony reentry into the country, having illegally reentered three times, while Honduran national and suspected 18th Street member Aron Isaak Morazan-Izaguiree was said to have reentered the United States illegally twice, according to a report from Fox News.

Appearing on the network’s “The Big Weekend Show,” DHS Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin explained, “This was a major success, it was a large-scale operation. And to your point, this is a preview of what is to come throughout the nation.”

“We have partnerships under 287(g) authorities that Secretary [of Homeland Security Kristi] Noem signed, and this empowers state and local law enforcement to actually be able to use their enforcement authority to carry out immigration enforcement,” she went on concerning the aliens who would “otherwise have been acting with impunity and terrorizing U.S. communities.”

“You are going to be seeing this throughout the country, and I think that Americans are going to be really thrilled with the results under this administration in the next 100 days,” added McLaughlin.

As for the raid in Colorado, a similar effort was reported within Trump’s first week back at the White House that led to the arrest of roughly 50 illegal aliens outside Denver.

Speaking with The Gazette, Douglas County Sheriff Darren Weekly expressed, “Colorado without question has been a hub for illegal immigration due to the sanctuary policies of the city of Denver in conjunction with radical legislation (including this session) from the State Capitol affirming Colorado’s sanctuary status.”

“As the Sheriff of Douglas County, I will do everything I can within Colorado law to support our federal partners,” he went on. “This, in turn, helps keep my community safe.”
