Grassley quizzes DOJ on MS-13 task force amid fears of gang members sneaking through border
Fox News
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has written to Attorney General Merrick Garland requesting answers about an MS-13 task force that he fears has been either scaled down or abolished entirely amid continued fears that members of the brutal gang are using the crisis at the southern border to sneak into the U.S.
"As a result, the public and Congress are unsure what strategy or plan, if any, DOJ is employing to combat MS-13," he wrote in a letter Tuesday. MS-13, also called Mara Salvatrucha, was set up in Los Angeles by Central American immigrants and has expanded across the continent, particularly in Northern Triangle countries like El Salvador and Guatemala. It is known for its particularly horrific and gruesome crimes, and its motto is said to be "mata, viola, controla" – which means "kill, rape, control."
