People in Aurora, Colorado, are asking the courts to let them kick out gangs of Venezuelan gangs living in apartment buildings. However, Democratic Gov. Jared Polis keeps ignoring videos of gang takeovers.
Literally two days ago, Polis and his spokespeople told Americans to believe what they saw on video—armed migrant gangs taking over apartment buildings and making people give the gang their rent money.
A spokeswoman for the governor told the media that Danielle Jurinsky, an Aurora council member, was making up stories about armed members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
Police in Aurora were also criticized by the spokeswoman, who said that Polis “really hopes that the city council members stop trashing our city when they are supposed to keep it safe.”
But on Friday, a source in the Department of Homeland Security told NewsNation that the guys in the video who are armed are members of the Venezuelan street gang Tren de Aragua.
There is also more proof that the governor is not concerned. Owners of some of the buildings told Fox News that a lot of refugees had moved into their buildings, which has led to more crime.
Fox News also said that the city attorney’s office in Aurora is going to ask a judge to brand the buildings a “criminal nuisance.”
City of Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman said on social media, “This will need an order from a local judge in order to get these buildings back under the control of the property owners.”
Police Chief Polis tried to say on Sunday that Vice President Harris backs building a wall along the southern border with Mexico.
“Listen, this is another problem that is very confusing as it gets closer to the public. According to Polis, Democrats like Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and even Barack Obama have always supported building walls and fences along parts of the border as part of a larger plan to secure the border.” He made these comments on ABC’s This Week on Sunday.
But the claim that Harris supports building a wall along the border is weak. Harris has linked her support to passing the “Emergency National Security Supplemental Appropriations Act,” a border bill that Democrats have tried and failed to pass many times. Beyond that, she has spoken out against building a wall along the border.
At the same time, some people in Aurora are getting together to try to beat the crime gangs.
