We've got a great feature for you today at @theprospect.bsky.social from Moe Tkacik. It's about how Tren de Aragua—an arcane obsession of organized crime buffs—became the latest villain that threatens our way of life. It started as an alibi for a Denver-area apartment developer with code violations.
