No military aircraft so we use navy cargo ship.

Trump: If I am not given the Noble peace prize, I will tarrif any country that votes against me. I will not rule out military action if necessary.

The two flights to Mexico that got turned away carried less than 100 migrants cost US taxpayers $900,000! CNN might want to mention that. Drumpf used expensive military jets because he just couldn't wait for CBP jets (because he wanted a photo shoot!). He should have to pay for the extra cost out of his pocket, not ours. What will it cost to take migrants back to China? Tax cuts for the billionaire broligarchs cost US money. Using C-130 aircraft is overkill and affects military readiness. Threatening tariffs on our allies is going to spark trade wars. He's a moron.

The military planes were going to drop off ilegal Colombians and comeback to the USA full of Cokes...wink.

This all smells like a false flag orchestrated by DNC Major donors, to ultimately have migrants severely injured or worse by our Border Patrol. As a result, Trump will labeled a Dictator who holds no regard to the lives of innocent Loving migrants. We need the Military and the entire US Homeland to build a wall. If not President Trump is going to call on every Citizen to stop this invasion at the Southern border, to prevent a collapse of our Country. Either we our Troops and homeland stop this invasion, or we will become Europe with no border and no walks. It may very come down to the Patriots of our Great ??

Colombia must immediately close the 6 USA military bases and kick out all their personnel which is stationed all around Colombia. \nThose poor naive Colombians are clueless and don't know that the USA had intentions to turn all of South America into a new Vietnam , creating conflict and wars between Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, Venezuela, Brazil, and also Cuba. \n\nThere is no need for USA Military bases in Central nor South America. There is no foreign threat other than the USA itself.

The US is crumbling, I can see the old man child using military force to get what he wants.

Turned back MILITARY FLIGHTS, IS USA IN WAR WITH COLOMBIA?????? Ignorant turd.

Instead of tariffs that dont hurt those that matter, what if the plane flew to 50+ military bases across south america instead and exited the base

Im not letting s military plane land in my sovereign nation. There are ways to do this. Do you know americans pay the tariffs?

Military assets needed here as deterrence… AGAINST A FOREIGN INVASION!\nThey won’t be pushing and shoving when they see our military staring them down.\nTURN AROUND AND GO HOME

Most high time for thousands of our U.S. military to be deployed to very actively help our Border Patrol secure our US/mexico Border absolutely 100%. Enough is way too much we've all had of illegals invading our space, our nation.

People are misunderstanding the problem here. It is not about returning migrants, its about the US just flying a military plane into foreign territory and dumping people. The president offered up his plane because he wants the deportees to go through commercial flights. If Colombia just flew a jet up and dumped a ton of cocaine on the tarmac of LAX it would be unacceptable, same deal here.

Whatever works to get them back humanely and with some dignity!. Thinking we should use standard immigration transport procedures and not u.s. military vehicles. People get nervous about u.s. military in their airspace. Not just of fear og mishaps but espionage plausibility and security clearances in those countries too. \nThere is a reason we have never used u s. Military for diplomatic issues

For the troll Trump posters here. It was not resolved. As a matter of fact as of 3 hours ago us planes and Military pains are not permitted into Colombian airspace. There was no resolution in Columbia certainly did not crumble they'll be taxed in America you want the coffee from them you'll be paying for it and Trump with his cocaine addiction since 1991 is probably going to be itchy and antsy more than ever some people look at the TV sets you can tell when he's actually doing lines

Colombian President Petro is right to block US Military planes from dumping illegal immigrants in Colombia, they do not want non Colombian immigrants in their country, Racist Trump is dumping illegal Hispanic immigrants everywhere on South America.

The fact that u have people on here thinking that trump won just goes to show the stupidity. The reason why Colombia refused the planes was because they were on military planes never in history America has ever used military planes to deport people they put them on regular planes. And who u think is going to pay for the tariffs American consumers people and meanwhile Colombia put a 50% tariffs on America. U have some Americans so deep in the cult that they can’t see that this crap is going to make it bad for the economy right now u have eggs at $9 and this clown have only been in office for a week.

Trump is using military aircraft to deport immigrants. That is the issue. If they sent them on commercial flights like it has been done for years, there wouldn't be a problem. Countries protect their sovereignty.

Coffee cut flowers and petroleum products 7 billion dollars worth product a year to USA will go up. The issue is diplomatic relations because no non third world countries will allow military aircraft on their land if it’s not military or criminal activities. Deportations is not a crime in Columbia. So what Trump should have done was verify that before sending military aircraft The have agreed to take the people in a commercial plane. Trump is over reacting to it

He’s insane. They agreed to let them come as long as they came on commercial flights or private plane. The only thing they didn’t like was that he sent them in a military plane which taxpayers shouldn’t like either cause it cost by far more to send them that way. This is all about Donald Trump’s ego. It’s just stupid. But it’s costing the taxpayers.

COLUMBIAN PRESIDENTS MESSAGE TO TRUMP - I don’t like your oil, Trump. You are going to wipe out the human species because of greed. Maybe one day, over a glass of whiskey—which I accept despite my gastritis—we can talk frankly about this. But it’s difficult because you consider me an inferior race, and I am not. Nor is any Colombian. If you know someone who is stubborn, that’s me—period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and arrogance, like they did with Allende, but I will die in my law. I resisted torture, and I resist you. \n \nI don’t want slavers next to Colombia. We’ve already had many, and we freed ourselves. You may kill me, but I will survive in my people, who were here in the Americas long before yours. We are people of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea, and of freedom. You don’t like our freedom? Fine. I don’t shake hands with white slavers. I shake hands with the white libertarian heirs of Lincoln and the black and white farm boys of the USA—at whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from COVID. They are the United States, and before them, I kneel. Before no one else. \n \nOverthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Your blockade does not scare me because Colombia, besides being a country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know you love beauty, as I do. Do not disrespect it, or you will lose its sweetness. From today on, Colombia is open to the entire world with open arms. We are builders of freedom, life, and humanity. \n \nI am informed that you imposed a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States. I do the same. Let our people plant corn—which was discovered in Colombia—and feed the world. And so now, less than one week into this, I say: We will stand firm. We will resist. We will thrive. \n \nThe president of Colombia does not want a U.S. military plane in his country—and fair enough. Instead, he brings his people home in style, aboard his presidential plane. It’s a statement of dignity, independence, and pride. Colombia stands firm, choosing its own path and honoring its people with the respect they deserve.

I still see how most of you googled tariffs, watched this video and still don’t understand tariffs. I swear you Magats turned politics into TMZ. Not a surprise from majority of you idiots electing someone who was never in the military or politics, just a fucking idiot that robs you while he looks you in the eye and letting racism, and literal fascist in the White House.

Jackass trump again killing our country and no one in government doing nothing to get him out of office, so much for our government, soon our countries land will be destroyed by war from other countries since the idiot will want to send military in, way to go republicans.

In my opinion… if those other countries won’t take back their own citizens… offer the illegals an opportunity to withdraw their patronage of their home country denying them to ever go back and grant them citizenship after serving 1 year in prison or serve in our military for 4 years for illegally crossing the border breaking American law.

No, you didn't understand the Colombian president's post. He was only against the use of military plane and lack of process, he never said he will not accept deported Colombian immigrants. There needs to be a coordination because they also need to make sure on their end that it's only their citizens that are being dumped in their country and that they're being treated humanely. Also, Colombia just hit U.S. with 50% tariff. Also dont forget there is arround 15.000 North American citizens living illegally in Colombia... So... WTF? U.S shoukd take it easy on his rear flank

The cost to use our military, quarter million, wasted, embarrassed Trump. How come no contact was made previously shows Trump had assumed he could force it. Sad. Presidents should be diplomatic, and talk to the other countries before sending them people. People, living people...

Trump didnt do tariffs to mexico when they rejected 2 military flights becaus the retaliation would have blown up in trumps face. He did his tariffs. On columbia thinking it was no big deal. How WRONG TRUMP IS COLUMBIA will retaliate and the rest of the world will support their retaliation! Bully trump getting schooled!

Trump sent your military to Colombia

columbia refused our military planes....perfect stock up on coffee!

it has to have unilateral agreement once a military plane is used, But put them on commercial then they have to take their citizens

Trump is using the military now just like hitler

Guatemala acept always thw United States Military aircraft lands during war in middle east. \nIs about cooperation and respect each other countries law's.

You work with other countries & they work with you. Act like you're a mob boss threatening allies & kissing enemies asses & the rest of the world is going to get it's back up & fight back. Columbia just wasn't playing the game of the strongman look Trump was trying by sending a military plane instead of a passenger plane.

They had no problems with previous flights that were civilian aircraft. No nation is going to allow the US military to land in or use their air space or facilities.

Bring in the Military

Rising prices for Americans on even more products because a country doesn't want unauthorized military planes coming into their country. Trump is the worst president this country has ever seen beating only himself as the 2nd worst president in his first term. Lower case p in president international because he doesn't deserve the reverence the proper title brings.

He didn’t refuse to let in its own citizens, US didn’t followed the protocols, it’s not only about dropping off people in a military plane without no info and communication, there are agreements between governments and no one has exceptions, quit misinforming.

Meanwhile Dump These DREGS In MILITARY DETENTION CENTRES

Where is the Military?

But why won't they want their Doctors and Engineers back? and look, they're all men all military age with no kids and women attached it'll be great for your country right?

The planes were military planes

he so dumb..he acts without looking into anything..costing tax payers millions to use military for deportation...you wanted him now ull pay for it..tarriffs means tarriffs right back at you..america will suffer more than colombia w tarrifs

The good thing about military cargo planes is that they have cargo doors. Incidentally, the Atlantic Ocean is vast and ideal for dumping.

This is a much easier fix than what’s being portrayed. We need to make the ability to become a temporary citizen easier than it is. Background checks, usable skills, and political or criminal affiliation. If it’s not possible to access, so is your entry. I support my president and my nation completely and yet I still understand that the deplorable conditions of these broken nations is something I too would want to escape from. By making it so impossible to legally enter, we’re funding the criminals who will do so illegally. \n And can we talk openly about the real issue as well? It’s time for the U.S to clean house too. Government officials taking bribes from the Cartels and making it harder for us to put safety measures in place. We have to stop being in business with these criminal elements. I get it, the money’s being used to fund our military initiatives that tax dollars can’t, like in the 80’s with Contra, but how many U.S lives have to be lost to secure a foreign policy???

The cost per flight hour of the military C-17 cargo jet is about $25,000 per flight hour, while chartering a used 737 costs about $4,300 per flight hour.

They don't want US military jets landing in their nation.

We told you. You didn’t listen. They’re wasting our military’s time and driving up OUR COST.

Colombia was prepared to accept repatriation of its citizens, but only on civilian flights and without the people manacled. But Trump & Rubio wanted to use the military. And this trade war is the result. Maybe calmer heads will prevail in the next few days, otherwise coffee & corn prices are going to skyrocket...

The only reason Columbia refused is because they were being brought in military planes. He said no to military planes entering his country, he thought they were being brought on civilian planes.

Its going to be a hefty price to return all those migrants on military planes
