A declassified U.S. intelligence memo disputes President Trump's assertion that Venezuela's Maduro government controls the Tren de Aragua gang. The memo suggests that while Venezuela's environment aids the gang's operations, there is no direct involvement or coordination with Maduro's regime. This goes against the Trump administration's narrative, which has prioritized the deportation of undocumented immigrants, illustrated by recent actions and remarks from officials, including Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, who emphasized the consequences for illegal immigration.
The recent intelligence memo contradicts President Trumpâs assertion that the Venezuelan government controls the Tren de Aragua gang, revealing a disconnect between his administration and intelligence assessments.
The memo indicates that while Venezuela's environment allows Tren de Aragua to operate freely, the Maduro regime is not actively managing or directing their actions in the U.S.
