"WASHINGTON (AP) — A new U.S. intelligence assessment found no coordination between Tren de Aragua and the Venezuelan government, contradicting statements that Trump administration officials have made to justify their invocation of the Alien Enemies Act and deporting Venezuelan migrants, according to U.S. officials.
 The classified assessment from the National Intelligence Council, released this month, is more comprehensive and authoritative than an earlier intelligence product released Feb. 26 and reported last month by The New York Times, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the assessment. They were not authorized to address the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
 
The new assessment draws input from the 18 agencies that comprise the intelligence community. It repeatedly stated that Tren de Aragua, a gang that originated in a prison in Venezuela, is not coordinated with or supported by the country’s president, Nicolás Maduro, or senior officials in the Venezuelan government. While the assessment found minimal contact between some members of the gang and low-level members of the Venezuelan government, there was a consensus that there was no coordination or directive role between gang and government."

I won't believe it until 51 agencies sign on and post it in a newspaper.

Why are they celebrating when the regime is still in place?

Like most media -- you see what they want you to see and believe.

And usually go for the extreme sensationalizing.

I remember the Watt's riots.  It was a rather small, contained area.

From the media -- especially east coast you woulda thought all of Los Angeles was under siege.

I'll wait for the real human interest reporting.

I get enough likes to keep me going. I must be doing something right. Maybe try discussing the topic instead of attacking members for a change, if you can't, then get help.

You constantly attack our country, our president, myself and others here every day all day.  Maybe get a grip on your TDS?

Appealing to mob rule.  Telling a biased target audience the propaganda they want to read.  I think that’s why dems lost big in 2024.

With Quin using lies, false assurances, and propaganda.

You mean when 51 right wingers post it on their podcasts and on X then more and more right wingers spread it until it resembles the truth?

Ignoring reality is a main staple for you.  A man can be a woman, amiright?

It's a shitshow at this point and you should be crying about it.

It's only a shitshow for you and the other Liberals.

I am not attacking you or others here, I am attacking your government's lies and con jobs, and BS wherever I see it. If you disagree then feel free to disagree in a civil manner and refute it, rather than being triggered Karen.
