In a raid on a nightclub in Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 114 people were arrested overnight by federal Drug Enforcement Administration agents. According to authorities, they were illegal immigrants who were arrested, put on a bus to bring them closer to the Mexican border, and put them on trial to be deported.
“This morning, the DEA arrested more than 100 illegal aliens at an illegal nightclub frequented by Tren de Aragua and MS-13 terrorists. Cocaine, methamphetamine and pink cocaine were seized. Two people who had previous warrants were also arrested,” Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on X. However, it was not confirmed whether the 114 people were part of the two criminal gangs.

Some DEA officers later reported that they “warned the occupants several times” to get out of the premises before forcibly breaking in around 3:45 a.m.
Since taking office in the White House, Donald Trump has made good on his campaign promise to fight against illegal immigration into the United States and deport all those without papers. Just a few days ago, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents reported that at least 800 people were arrested in Florida.
