As Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., privately jets across the nation for her “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, residents in her Queens constituency have been calling on the FBI and the DEAto help them crack down on the illegal sex workers and drug dealers that they say have turned their neighborhood into a festering “gangland.”

Last week, local leaders, including a former Democrat state senator, wrote to FBI Director Kash Patel urging him to unleash agents to quell the raging problem along Roosevelt Avenue – a 2-mile commercial strip which has been likened to both a Third World Country and a Red-Light district – where scantily-clad women on sidewalks soliciting sex is commonplace.

They also claim the ruthless 18th Street Gang has taken over illegal operations there, filling the void of other gangs like with Tren de Aragua after a massive police operation saw hundreds of people arrested.
