The Issue: The rise of Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua in migrant centers across New York.
As if New York isn’t already plagued by rampant crime, the Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua has now extended its violent reach throughout the city (“Big Apple is a Tren wreck,” Sept. 23).
Their criminality has even affected the safety of schools near Roosevelt Avenue, where a sordid brothel has been operating. The criminal degradation resulting from the influx of illegal immigration worsens by the day, threatening the safety of neighborhoods and residents alike.
When illicit activities occur so close to schools, it is clear that we are approaching societal collapse.

The Tren de Aragua gang, which emigrated from Venezuela, represents the worst of the worst.
Now, an undetermined number of its members are in New York, committing crimes without fear of the police — two of whom were shot by gang members. Deportation, one by one, should be the city’s policy.
Calling New York a third-world city will no longer be an exaggeration if these criminals are allowed to stay. The city must welcome Immigration and Customs Enforcement to assist with the task. Otherwise, we’ll all live to regret it.

Plain and simple — this lawlessness is the result of the irresponsible and indefensible immigration policies of the Biden-Harris administration. Coupled with the rise of sanctuary cities, cashless bail policies and ineffectual district attorneys in Democrat-run cities, this situation alone is reason enough to vote these people out of office.

Illegal immigrants are pouring across the border and Mayor Adams is repeatedly going to Washington for help from our timid leader.
On top of that, liberals insist these individuals, like those in Tren de Aragua, be given a chance to terrorize our country as they did their own.

The blame for this criminal invasion of illegal immigrants into New York falls squarely on the Biden kakistocracy.

The Issue: Revelations that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was exchanging explicit texts with a reporter covering him.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s behavior should surprise no one — it’s embedded in the Kennedy DNA (“No RFK sextasy!,” Sept. 23).
But it’s amusing to see how the left has latched on to this story. I recall when Democrats and the Clintons told us that candidates’ personal lives didn’t matter, insisting: “It’s the economy, stupid.”
Once again, their inherent hypocrisy is revealed as Democrats use this story to attack a political opponent, thereby indirectly targeting former President Donald Trump’s campaign. We have serious issues in this country.

No surprises here. It seems RFK Jr.’s cheating is definitely genetic at this point.
He worships Donald Trump in a pathetic bid for validation. In exchange, he’s been hilariously humiliated and outed for being a cheater and a killer of random animals. What a loser.

I wasn’t aware The Post was competing with the National Inquirer.
My inbox is constantly bombarded with stories about affairs, sexual escapades and other salacious topics. Lately, you seem fascinated by Dave Grohl, P. Diddy and now RFK Jr.
