that individual has a mental health issue and needs some help.

This is really sad,hope those people get help somehow,maybe in their own country ?

Schizophrenia Does Not BELONG IN AMERICAS MILITARY!!!!! TRANS PEOPLE NEED MAJOR HELP FOR THERE \nMULTIPLE PERSONALITIES

It would be very helpful if we could get a numerical report on this. Just how many trans folks are in the various branches of the Service? \nPerhaps, as is the usual Trump playbook, we are making much ado about not a whole lot?????

He is a man pretending to be a woman. Sorry...that is a mental problem. I honor his service. I should get special help ...but should not be allowed to serve in combat.

Your average soldier is not going to respect a leader or want to follow a leader who used to be a man and is now a woman and Vice, versa! I agree with Trump and Crenshaw even though I don't Crenshaw. There is no room in the military for this BS. I served 10 years and this BS is nothing more than a huge distraction. You have people who were going in just to get the operations. They spend 4 years in the military changing gender on tax payers dime. Out of the whole 4 years they may be deployable for about 6 months and that ain't all at the same time. When I was in this stuff was not an issue! They were not allowed to join and neither were gays.\n\n Think about it everyone is so bent out of shape over sexual assault well if you take a couple of gay guys and put them in an infantry unit they are going to look at all those men the same way a straight guy would look at all the girls if he was dropped off in an all girls collage. Nothing but problems and issues the military doesn't need!!! Seen it first hand back then when it was not allowed. Incase no one noticed military recruitment is down to dangerous levels! Doesn't anyone wonder why??? This post is why. No one wants to be part of a wishy washy military. It's to easy to get hurt or killed when things are running normal! Throw all the gay and trans BS in there and it just F**ks up everything!\n\nSo for 4 years they are almost always on lite duty, they are getting paid and getting the operations then at the end of their enlistment they walk out of the military the opposite sex they came in with and the American taxpayer is hundreds of thousands of dollars down for every one of these fools!!! This is what the democrats did!!! Join the Army and change your sex on us!!!\nNo place in the military for these fools. I feel that anyone who wants to change their sex is mentally ill!!! I have no desire to change into a woman and if I did I would think something was wrong with me and go get help!!!

They don't let you in if you have sleep apnea, high bp etc. but we're supposed to ignore the whole physical changes/surgery etc. that makes them not combat ready? (Not to mention the mental aspect of this situation). If this wasn't a libtard 'hill to die on', politically correct BS agenda, like with trans in women's sports IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS. Feckless Kaitlen Collins parading this 'person' out who may be the exception doesn't make it the rule. And how they FEEL about it doesn't help our military to be stronger.

The media just can’t help itself…it has to lie…using a 10 year old survey by UCLA for the “15,000 transgenders” number when a more recent study done in 2021 shows only 1900 individuals received any care related to being transgender through the DOD and a January 2024 estimate by the RAND Corporation estimated 1320 to 6630 transgenders serving. And the overwhelming Amorite are support roles, not combat or front line. And yes, I’m a veteran.

If you're doing your job what difference does it make, if you are in combat and wounded, and some comes to help you, you will not ask them what their sex orientation is.

Thanks for your service. Please get the help you need. Thank you!

Bye you are more of a hazard that a helping hand

Trump needs to help reform some of these places people come from. Make it happy for the people and they won’t want to go here.

Somebody help report with me and let ice know thanks

We have Veterans living on the streets. Help Americans 1st. ❤

So let me get this straight you've destroyed your own country's economy but now you want to come here and you are all supposed to do these great big wonderful things??? Yeah right the only thing that these people will do is work on ruining our economy next and if you haven't noticed lately our economy is bad enough without letting these clowns have a crack at it. Everybody down the list all of them that voted for Biden are responsible for this mess Joe Biden and all of his followers should be ashamed of themselves which is why he wanted to pardon all of his people because personally if I was the president everyone that helped that man do this would be held accountable

you can blame these past four administrations who have been tearing down and ruining this country. we do not need illegals in here who won the enter into this country are entering it illegal in other words breaking the laws the first step they take when they push themselves and demand to be allowed to come in and be given everything. I don't think so. America First there's plenty of people in this country that we need to help. let every country take care of their own people.

Dear lord! Please help us with this

I am a newfoundlander known across the country as a NEWFIE. You ask would i give up by birthplace to move to the USA? I wouldn't consider moving to anywhere in Canada let alone move to the USA. We have health insurance which is taken care of by government, we have Dental care that's taken care of by government we have Starbucks, Tim Horton's, and all the other goodies you mentioned here or you think are goodies. We have very nice people and everyone is willing to help and not stab the neighbour in the back. We have some of the best that nature has to offer. Move? Not bloody likely.

I get it, they're trying to escape the government corruption and drug cartels. But, leaving the country isn't going to fix anything. Instead, it's going to put a strain on America's already over budgeted social services. We can barely help people that are already here. Once the cross, theyll go on welfare immediately. TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST!

As far as healthcare goes the US is a 3rd world country, where, only the rich can afford to see a doctor, or visit a hospital. You have thousands of people living on the streets, with NO help, or concern. America is no different than Bangladesh, or Ethiopia, for having a part of your society living on the street, begging for food, or money. When the US starts caring for ALL of it's people, regardless of skin color, race, or background, and give them a hand up, like most CIVILIZED societies do, you'll always be a 3rd world country. America had a chance to elect a president that would have turned America into a first world power with Kamala Harris, and Tim Waiz, but, you blew it, you re-elected the worst president, EVER with trump, who will finish the job of ruining America, and make it totally poverty-stricken. WOW, you'd think Americans are all millionaires, the way they turned out, for trump! Did NONE of you listen to what Kamala was offering? Because this half blind, mostly deaf old Canadian heard every word, her promise of a bottom-up building more opportunities for poor, and working class families, new taxes on the rich, and corporations to pay for it. Kamala offered a GREAT deal, a more secure future, more OPPORTUNITIES,,,,, And you all turned her down. You voted for a stalker and rapist, a traitor, and criminal, with multiple convictions, a liar, and cheat, trump. I guess you get what you deserve.

I pray they find help and a place they can live safely in there own country. I’d try and make it on my own grow food and live in a tent somewhere over putting myself or my child through this.. God please protect them.

Every nation should little by little build social structures,\nWith the help of other nations, if needed, or just become another state of USA ??, then equal opportunity

Help Amran khan Pakistan free

There shd be a cultural mind set. A country like USA has every right to deny entry to foreign nationals. Why do you allow to be treated that way? Time to lo help your gov't to reach prosperity.

Go back and fix your own country. You are not needed here in the US. Let’s help our fellow Americans that truly need the help. Amen and Amen!

They let their country go to sht..... now they want to come here and help fk up our country even more then it is... no thanks

Their own Latinos helped create this difficulty for them…..Latinos for Trump! lol ????????

I thought sikhs hate pathans and afghans why is a pathan imran khan helping sikhs Cross to Pakistan ??

I’m sorry, there is nothing left to give. Our own people need help.

The Colombian president asks for respect. Being illegal is a minor crime, the Colombian is not a criminal. That is what Colombia asked for. He also offered to send the presidential plane to help, but transporting a Colombian with handcuffs in international territory is kidnapping since that minor crime does not exist in Colombia. And if Trump threatens to raise tariffs, Colombia does too... and China wants to help us... gringos, the Titanic is sinking...

They need to stop the funding and if their going to help with funding they should give them the minimum 7.25 hour.

maduro is behind this, helped by lopez obrador/sheinbaum from Mexico. Mr. President Trump, seize these guys once and for all. Sir, this is an authentic threat to America.

It is time for the government to create opportunities for India’s foreign dream seekers and help them to find better paying jobs in India rather than blaming other countries for rejecting visa applications.

So if tariffs are so bad why do most developing nations have high tariffs and most developed don’t? It’s to help developing nations.

Help Americans first NO MY FREE LOADING

China just sitting down! ?\nWe're a country of idiots!! \nChina is willing to help them

Why do we have undocumented migrants in the country then cnn who is to blame for not doin there job enforcing border policy and actually vetting them in a orderly fashion this wouldn’t be a problem but instead of helping blame blame vote for us nothing trump does is a problem your news coverage are in accurate depictions of how the public feels

Trumps mental illness is getting dangerous...please someone get him dome help before this gets our country and its people in jeopardy..please look at what he is doing is not normal....

Stay in your country and fix it. Use that force you're showing us right now to demand your government to help you.

The point is that it is their respective countries' fault for not being able to take care of their people. China has helped Latin America ? what else do they want from the U.S.

So our coffee is now more EXPENSIVE!!!\nThanks trump. And why are eggs more expensive? And how about gas and house PRICES??? Why are the prices going up when you promised DOWN!!!\nAnd Ukraine war ended on day 1???? \nAnd what about minimum wage for average AMERICANS???\nWhen are you going to help the people who voted for YOU???

I agree, why don't they rise against their own nations as a free people and take back their countries!!! They obviouslt have desires to elevate their lives in some way, we americans had to fight for our country and it wasn't exactlt easy, these people are weak and pathetic for running away from their problems only to bring our country more problems that we can't deal with ourselves, I say we just hand them all a surplus of guns and a campaign plan to take back their own country lol, as much as I hate seeing any human suffer aside from rapists and murderers and child sex abusers, we in America have too many problems ourselves, and I was always told if you can't fix yourself, or love yourself how can you ever hope to be and good for anyone else, and that rings so true with everything, these people need to stand on their own 2 feet and fight against whatever tyranny they have and become a free people, I know if they did that someday they would probably succeed, and perhaos if they did start fighting for their freedom and trying to take back their country, we Americans might help them succeed in those endeavors some way or another...Who knows, these people need to rush their own governments and plead with them or overtake them, they can bum rush our borders I see no reason why they're not capable of doing the same in their own country, massive numbers beats out a shaggy old military and corrupt government any day everytime, yes many lives lost, but the sounds of trumpets for victort will ring out loudly on the end, and the people can finally have the lives and country they desire, we ain't it right now folks so turn back around and take all this border crossing energy to fight against your own establishments

Americans first, we need help

Why don’t we send money, skills, and resources to help assist these countries with becoming better places to live…so that they stop needing to come into America! We send billions+ to aid other countries that despise America why not start with the poorer countries connected to our borders…?\n\nJust food for thought…\n\nThis is sad on sooo many levels…So much to be said…yet in the end Border control is VERY necessary.

I'm going to say this if you are a southern USA citizens please support Trump and we have to protect our border people let's all Help him.

The sheep still follow the shepherd with help of sheep dogs called Elon and Donald. A.I. Takeover Incoming but there here to save us ha ha

can someone tell me this is not invasion? please help me understand. If a group of people trying to jump the fence to get into your house, would you stop them?

The mob is more than the police stopping them. Hope police can get more help

Canada will help Columbia with coffee sales.

Sad for those truly suffering but this is not the way. Forcing their way is not helpful because then they are in the US without papers, working cash, doing nothing to support the country.
