Penske Denounces DHS Using Their Trucks for Immigration Raid While Silent When Used for Human Smuggling

Penske is facing backlash after chastising the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for using their rental trucks to conduct targeted immigration enforcement in Los Angeles this week.

On Wednesday morning, Fox News correspondent Matt Finn published footage shot from inside a cargo truck full of U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) agents executing Operation Trojan Horse.

“DHS arrives in Penske trucks at a Home Depot in McArthur Park area of LA for early morning immigration enforcement. The area was filled with migrants who scattered. DHS says MS 13 has a chokehold on this area, which is one reason they’re carrying out the highly optic immigration raids. 16 taken into custody,” Finn wrote on social media.
