This is what we voted for!
In Colorado Springs, early Sunday Morning, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officers swooped down on an "underground nightclub," seizing drugs, weapons, and at least 100 illegal aliens. It's unclear what an "underground nightclub" is, but it's a safe bet it didn't have a liquor license.
There were over 200 people in the club at the time of the raid.
More than 100 people reported to be in the country illegally were detained in a raid at a nightclub early Sunday morning, according to Drug Enforcement Administration officials.
The Rocky Mountain division of the DEA reported the multi-agency enforcement operation on X around 4 a.m.
"@DHSgov has taken more than 100 illegal aliens into custody. Drugs and weapons have also been seized at this underground nightclub in Colorado Springs," the agency posted around 6 a.m., sharing a video of the raid.
The video shows dozens of men and women stream out of the front door of the building after law enforcement officers break a window.
The 100+ illegal aliens were detained, but they were handed over to Immigration & Customs Enforcement for repatriation - except presumably the ones that are facing drug and weapons charges here.
During a Sunday morning news conference, special agent in charge Jonathan Pullen said agents found pink cocaine, evidence of prostitution, and multiple firearms. The DEA estimates there were around 200 people inside the nightclub at the time of the raid, including more than a dozen U.S. active-duty service members.
More than a dozen active-duty servicemen, it's a safe bet, will be having some extremely uncomfortable conversations with their first sergeants on Monday morning - or, probably, before.

Special agent Pullen said:
So this is an underground, illegal nightclub, OK? So, what was happening inside was significant drug trafficking, prostitution, crimes of violence. We seized a number of guns in there, we had active duty service members who were running security at the club and were involved in some of these crimes. And, in fact, we had over a hundred illegal aliens inside as well, and those over 100 illegal aliens were taken into custody by ICE.
OK, those service members won't just be having an uncomfortable conversation with their first sergeants, but also, if things proceed as they should, with a court-martial, followed by a long stint in Leavenworth making big rocks into little rocks.
Yes, this is indeed what we voted for, and the only remaining question is which liberal activist judge will step up to try to block the repatriation of 100+ people who were in the country illegally and who were involved in drugs, weapons, and prostitution, in an illegal underground nightclub. It would be nice to think that this kind of thing would place these illegals beyond the pale, but it seems lately that there is no scumbag so detestable that some liberal judge won't try to keep them in the United States.
In the meantime, well done to all involved with this operation. Colorado Springs is a safer place today.
Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left's lies, new legislation wasn't needed to secure our border, just a new president.
