A partially declassified report from U.S. intelligence refutes President Trump's claim that the Venezuelan government is directing the gang Tren de Aragua's activities in the U.S. The National Intelligence Council asserts that while the Maduro regime may tolerate gang activities, it does not cooperate with them and considers them a potential security threat. This report challenges the rationale used by Trump to invoke the Alien Enemies Act to deport suspected gang members. It highlights a lack of evidence for coordinated action between the gang and Venezuelan authorities.
U.S. intelligence agencies found no evidence that Venezuelan authorities are directing Tren de Aragua's activities in the U.S., contradicting Trump's assertions.
The National Intelligence Council states the Maduro regime probably does not cooperate with Tren de Aragua, viewing the gang more as a security threat.
