local law enforcement in my community in California told me of one of the nearby rural towns that became a place where MS-13 brought its victims from Los Angeles to murder, and there are absolutely gruesome stories of faces being carved off, fingers severed digit by digit.

We don't need new laws. We need to enforce the laws we already have.

The laws didn't change on inauguration day. The Presidency did.
