In addition to securing the border once he returns to office, president-elect Donald Trump has also vowed to remove the violent Tren de Aragua gang out of the U.S.
But it may not be easy.
"It's almost like a weed has been planted, it's going to be hard to get rid of all of it" said Mark Krikorian, director with the Center For Immigration Studies, "I'm optimistic the Trump people will be able to do a lot of good and prune this weed. But I'm afraid because of 4 years of Biden, they've put down roots that are going to be hard to pull out."
Thankfully, Trump has made a solid pick for his new 'Border Czar', Tom Homan.
"When the new border czar takes over Tom Homan, he's going to make a real effort at finding these guys and throwing them out of the country. I just think that the damage Joe Biden and DHS Sec. Mayorkas have done, can't totally be undone."
On a more positive note, former ICE Director and KTRH guest Ron Vitiello, believes that Trump's mass deportation plan will quickly dismantle the Tren de Aragua gang.
