Remember the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang that took over an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado? That same gang has taken over a hotel in El Paso.
A hotel in El Paso and its owner face a temporary injunction and restraining order from the El Paso County Attorney for alleged criminal activity and suspicions of housing Tren de Aragua gang members.
El Paso County Attorney Christina Sanchez filed an original petition for abatement of a common nuisance, an application for a temporary restraining order, a temporary injunction, and a permanent injunction against the Gateway Hotel.
“The Gateway Hotel’s reputation is as a business that does not properly document the guests that stay at the hotel, has narcotics trafficking, disorderly conduct, and violent crime,” read the lawsuit.
The Gateway is also appears on Google maps as the “Salih El-Amin Falke Motel.” But there’s no DBA under that name and all DBAs for the Gateway Hotel show up as inactive.
The first documented instance of a possible gang member was in June when police were called after a suspect shot a handgun in the air and made threats of violence.
Police later noted tattoos consistent with the gang Tren de Aragua on inhabitants of the hotel on several occasions while investigating calls of disorderly conduct and fire code violations.
In addition to criminal activity, the hotel has operated without a valid certificate of occupancy for the past six years and has failed three inspections by the El Paso Fire Department. The fire department noted holes in walls and ceilings throughout the entire building and sprinkler heads taped over.
One video cited in the suit shows individuals “partying” on the third floor with one gun being shot, men holding knives, and another holding a hatchet he allegedly used to assault individuals and cause damage to the hotel.
Additional police calls to the Gateway Hotel include failures to comply with sex offender registration, theft, aggravated assault, and narcotics—including marijuana and methamphetamines.
“Management does not attempt ‘to control the conduct of the guests and is negligently allowing gang activity to infiltrate the area,’” remarked a police officer in the suit.
Here’s a local media video:
The Biden Administration’s insistence on flooding the country with illegal aliens is the gift that keeps on giving. And Kamala Harris’ support for an illegal alien amnesty will insure that all the rapists, felons, thugs and murderers they brought in get to stay permanently.

None of this is happening without government or NGO involvement at all levels. Observe what is going on in Springfield with the vouchers being handed out to the Haitians, which makes it all that much more profitable for the landlords to push out actual American low-income renters to make more money off the free government cheese.
You’re witnessing the suicide of the United States, enabled by its very own “elites”. Pay attention, and go looking for all the little “enablers” out there in the perverse incentives that are making this happen. Minneapolis would still be majority-white absent the traitorous activities of their very own Lutheran religious “do-gooder” types.
Life gets easy, people get stupid, take up luxury beliefs that they can’t really afford the consequence of, and then empires fall. Same thing happened in Rome; the Boni took the rural yeomanry off to war, bankrupted their small farms, moved them into the cities and replaced those small farms with immensely profitable latifundia run by slaves that those yeoman died to obtain… Pernicious profit-making at the expense of the actual strength of a nation ain’t exactly new. We never learn…
Kirk is spot on. I just automatically revert to “brought to you by Border Czar Kamala Harris.”

At some point, we’re going to have to figure out why so many of our “leaders” are acting against the best interests of the people they’re supposed to be looking out for. This crap has been happening across the board for decades… Not just “Democrat” or “Republican” or religious vs. secular: It’s endemic and pervasive. They’re all acting against even their own interests.
Why? What perverse incentive is in place encouraging all of this? Why have we tolerated it?
Nearly every major institution in our nation is now the enemy of its own citizens, from the military to the church. Why? What caused this?
Answer that one, and you’ll understand much about modern life.
Ain’t just here in the US, either. Examine what’s been happening across Europe: What the actual f*ck have the elites in Germany been thinking with the whole “Let’s bring in all the Muslims and shut down our energy industries…” thing?
Russia? LOL… The “elites” there have been scraping every thin dime they got for selling their resources and putting them into yachts and rich living in Moscow and St. Petersburg, while all the little villages and towns out in the hinterlands still lack indoor plumbing, decent health care, and any sort of future.
We really need a curettage of about the top 10% of the population, world-wide. If someone tells you they believe in and agree with the WEF agenda? Prima facie evidence, right there, that they shouldn’t be in charge of anything more complex than the local landfill. And, they’ll probably f*ck that up, too…
Governor Abbott?
In an older world, the solution to this problem would’ve already happened. These bullies would’ve been met with gunfire on their first attempt and then highly-organized reactionary violence that would terrorize them 24/7, kill half their friends, and have anyone left living begging authorities to hop a plane back to Caracas.
In an older world, no one would say a peep. The older world is going to return. The authorities, at every level, are proving they’re politically and legally powerless to do what is necessary to scare the living shit out of barbarians who never belonged here in the first place – and worse – might even be in on it.
They. Do. Not. Belong. Here. Not only do they not possess the same rights that we do, for all practical purposes they possess no rights. They are transnational entities existing completely on our collective goodwill, patience and generosity, and it is wearing really really thin.
And when the older world returns, I won’t say a peep. Will you?
President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador knows how to deal with this. Let’s call him in as a consultant.
Andy has a point.
“The hotel failed at least three inspections by the El Paso fire department.”
“No, no, really. We have no idea where the fire started or how it spread so fast. Our arson investigators haven’t been able to figure it out. But those three failed fire inspections, and all those oily rags they were storing in the basement…it was just a matter of time.”
Sounds like there has been good cause for years to shut this “hotel” down. Why hasn’t that happened? That’s not a federal issue, that’s a local issue. What’s goin on in El Paso that this is tolerated?
