How ignorant are you people? My grandad was paid to move to Canada due to having a masters in economics and most of his friends were lawyers, doctors and engineers- when convenient we are ok, else you turn and speak garbage. Bravo\n\nFYI Canada was built by British who stole and crippled then one of biggest economies and took money to England and go Canada, America and Australia to build it all up.\n\nPlease host, show some education- don’t add to the ignorance

Those who are constantly adding strain to the U.S. economy, jobs, infrastructure, schools, social security, civil workers, health care, resources, water, power, energy, and crime. I can't imagine how many federal judges and fellow legal representatives America needs to hire for everyone of these illegals. \nSecondly, they must respect the country, is no country on earth with such open boarder policy. Then, the result as you see, 20% of Americans are homeless, living under harsh means. No one can afford Marriage no more. Housing is nearly about half a million dollar for just a house. Food is hell high!!! Stop it right now. Turn back and move on where you came from. And never come back!

His mission is to turn America into the heartless bully that Russia and China have always said that we are. Their Chump is happy to play the boogeyman.\nThe adversaries of democracy love it when we are divided and distracted, hating our fellow citizens and allies. They want to make the west implode, so they never even have to fire a shot.

It’s hard to blame people who want to have a better life and believe that America is their best hope. On the other hand, it is very easy to point fingers at American politicians who either turned a blind eye or outright invited them to cross the border illegally.

They turn their own country to crap now they want to come to America and turn it to crap .

I'm still waiting for y'all to tell the truth we destabilize Venezuela because Venezuela voted against us in OPEC with Iraq, if you go into Venezuela and you see that those people don't have no electricity they don't got no food they don't got no water because America turn their back on them.

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.

America is not going to turn into Venezuela. Thank you trump

We’re going into an era where we’re going to learn the hard way, the world don’t give a fuck about the US anymore. And those counties are going to turn to Asia and South America for leadership.

PREDICTION: The rise of international tariffs will ultimately uncover a huge underbelly of unemployment ironically in the USA and create a wave of an unexpected underbelly of poverty unseen by America in many years. USA will suffer in the next 4 years due to tariff wars and causing its international allies work in new relationships with its unexpected competitors such as China. The EU will learn how to live without relying on the USA - as is the same with China and other countries. America will have to self-rely on itself - causing it to recycle its own money over and over again to try and create home-grown industries that will initially be very expensive to run. \n\nCompetitive countries will strike deals with American allies and form new relationships that the USA hadn't foreseen - and the era will illustrate an international 'Us' vs US mentality. Countries will turn their back on America, knowing they can work well together than rely on the USA. \n\nThe average US citizen will be receiving tax rise after tax rise, causing more poverty within states and due to the 'xenophobic tariff mentality' - will find the middle income earner slip down to a lower grade, and ripple this effect. Medical aid will only benefit the rich while everyone else will pay for minimum service but premium for medication. \n\nThe price of food and transport will quadruple over the next 4 years, not because of the natural progression of price rise, but immediately due to tariff wars. \n\nAmericans, ultimately pay for tariffs - bullying words of 50 percent tariffs on another country means a surge in prices for everyday goods Americans take for granted. The only winner is the Government - which means it chooses what to spend on. \n\nA recession will hit hard....AGAIN -- on the USA.

Guys there aren’t many countries where you can just walk right in with no papers, passport, ID, work visa or something of the sort. America just let this go on for too long so it’s going to be hard now to change the tide. Should’ve happened forever ago and we wouldn’t have to turn so many desperate families away like this. It’s definitely sad to watch it go down though.

America..fuck yeah..coming again to tax the mutha fucking world yeah..trump has robbed the American taxpayer all his life..now it's the worlds turn

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

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.

What in the sweet freshwater port is this Russian bots don’t understand how tariffs on goddamn Colombia is a stupid idea hell if then Colombia will just turn to trading it to other countries or joining brics if America is that unstable as a country why bother with them

so why are they turning back their so-called migrants because they know they are criminals. CNN America does not have a trade war with a nation which has a GDP which is 1% of the US GDP America has been disrespected too much enough is enough. I dont care if my coffee and Bananas are expensive in the short run i care about Americans getting Jobs.

The world will turn on Trump and America if they are not careful. The world will not be bullied. Could this be the beginning of the end for the United States influence? ??

This man doesn't realize he is going to isolate and bankrupt America with all the s*it he is doing. Unless he wants to go nuclear in which case Earth would be uninhabitable for EV and everyone including the 1%, other countries WILL turn on America and the economic cost will be catastrophic.....then again, he's a genius at the art of bankruptcy....

As an Australian, I can't wait until he decides to impose tariffs on our exports.\n\nThe US quickly losing any allies. What's that now, Canada, all of South and Central America, Denmark.\n\nYou guys in the media over there turning a blind eye to his actions should be worried. Soon he will turn on you too.

About time cut the crap work. Americans need to get on same page you want more great create more value you don't create for others to make lives better than no pay \n\nWe are community. Hard times shoot we have all been there thinking someone thinking besides yourself is responsible is a lie. You enter this earth with curses or bless from your parents and generations so what you going to do sin more and curse your family more or not pass the buck and obey Jesus..\n\n\nJesus said to serve and sluggers aka people who don't serve others don't deserve to eat. What he's trying to tell when he's saying work to serve others like you do him is people have all you ever wanted so learn how to be of value and service. America you can do so will it be easy no but we need to stop corruptness.\n\nI paid for my familys curses so my children don't have and what does the wicked tell me it's not fair when you work three jobs to come up and constant study of improvement of personal value I'm so so so sick of liars trying to to blame people of there conditions instead of turning to the king who will work all for good stop having faith in the wicked man god sent the sinless to lead you to right truthful stop believing convient lies from atheist.\n\nHeck even Rome couldn't stop Jesus words so instead try to control it with claiming there Christian don't make there sol victorious worship and Mary worship or sun/moon worship Rome was made from as truth. Please get the Bible and check for yourself study both sides prove Jesus isn't real.\n\nOnce you learn Jesus is here to lead u out of your self-destructiveness and knowing your sin curses your children this stuff will stop. \n\nYou can claim whatever but I can't disagree if Jesus didn't come our life would be 100x worse everywhere as America was built strongly after his words \n.

Colombia's President said >>>> Trump, I don't really like travelling to the US, it's a bit boring, but I confess that there are some commendable things. I like going to the black neighbourhoods of Washington, where I saw an entire fight in the US capital between blacks and Latinos with barricades, which seemed like nonsense to me, because they should join together. \n \nI confess that I like Walt Whitman and Paul Simon and Noam Chomsky and Miller \n \nI confess that Sacco and Vanzetti, who have my blood, are memorable in the history of the USA and I follow them. They were murdered by labor leaders with the electric chair, the fascists who are within the USA as well as within my country \n \nI don't like your oil, Trump, you're 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'm not, nor is any Colombian. \n \nSo if you know someone who is stubborn, that's me, period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and your arrogance, like they did with Allende. But I will die in my law, I resisted torture and I resist you. I don't want slavers next to Colombia, we already had many and we freed ourselves. What I want next to Colombia are lovers of freedom. If you can't accompany me, I'll go elsewhere. Colombia is the heart of the world and you didn't understand that, this is the land of the yellow butterflies, of the beauty of Remedios, but also of the colonels Aureliano Buendía, of which I am one, perhaps the last. \n \nYou will kill me, but I will survive in my people, which is before yours, in the Americas. We are peoples of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea and of freedom. \n \nYou don't like our freedom, okay. 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, which I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from Covid. \n \nThey are the United States and before them I kneel, before no one else. \n \nOverthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. \n \nColombia now stops looking north, looks at the world, our blood comes from the blood of the Caliphate of Cordoba, the civilization of that time, of the Roman Latins of the Mediterranean, the civilization of that time, who founded the republic, democracy in Athens; our blood has the black resistance fighters turned into slaves by you. In Colombia is the first free territory of America, before Washington, of all America, there I take refuge in its African songs. \n \nMy land is made up of goldsmiths who worked in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs and of the first artists in the world in Chiribiquete. \n \nYou will never rule us. The warrior who rode our lands, shouting freedom, who is called Bolívar, opposes us. \n \nOur people are somewhat fearful, somewhat timid, they are naive and kind, loving, but they will know how to win the Panama Canal, which you took from us with violence. Two hundred heroes from all of Latin America lie in Bocas del Toro, today's Panama, formerly Colombia, which you murdered. \n \nI raise a flag and as Gaitán said, even if it remains alone, it will continue to be raised with the Latin American dignity that is the dignity of America, which your great-grandfather did not know, and mine did, Mr. President, an immigrant in the USA, \n \nYour blockade does not scare me, because Colombia, besides being the country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know that you love beauty as I do, do not disrespect it and you will give it your sweetness. \n \nFROM 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 impose a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States, and I do the same. \n \nLet our people plant corn that was discovered in Colombia and feed the world \n \n1:15 PM · Jan 26, 2025 ·11.1M Views

He is opening the door for China to take ground in central and South America, \nJust wait! All these countries will turn to China.

The world already hates the US because of enabling and blank check for the genocide in Gaza. Now they are really going to hate the US. The US GOVERNMENT has overthrown every single nation in central and south america. All the nations are not going to have a choice but to turn to bricks.

You know what makes Trump a political buffoon? Americans took over Central and South America in the 1940s. Oh, now that the leader of Columbia turned back American military aircraft this announcer is said he's not popular with his people. And please, talk English.This isn't an immigrant crack-down if military craft fly to other countries at will.

America will just turn to other nations to get the goods. Colombia isn't the only country that exports these goods.

There goes your bananas Americans. Trump turning America into a bananaless Banana Republic.

India is a big country. Indians in America are the highest earning ethnic group for good reason. Their education and employment backs it up. However, the illiterate bunch that Canada imported from Punjab who by trade are farmers, truck drivers, taxi drivers and other labor intensive workers, is the reason why Canadians are pissed. The majority of the “students” barely speak English, which makes you wonder if the IELTS is even legit. Add the fact that cost of living is through the roof, Canada is a shitshow. The blame goes to: a. India b. Canada \n\nIndia is to blame for not having oversight over these so called “consultants” who help with immigration abroad. These agencies work with fake schools to allow so called students to emigrate. \n\nCanada is at fault for not doing their due diligence when issuing visas. Trudeau is a communist and single handedly destroyed Canada with his buddy, Jagmeet, by bringing all those Punjabis into Canada. Those Punjabis belong on a farm or driving a truck in India, not in Canada. Smart Indians want nothing to do with Canada now and this in turn will hurt Canada grow as a nation.

All the big cities in North America are turning into overpriced shit holes. Oh, and it's not just North America. Many European cities are on a downward course.

Disgrace of a country and who funded the now isis or taliban? Yes America trained them in the 80s to fight the soviet Union look how that turned out now backing Ukraine history will repeat itself

Good that Canada is sending all indian assholes back to india because they don't deserve to stay in canada. Next turn is coming from America too.. where indians go they turned that country in to hell.

Go turn your own country into a Civilized and Prosperous place. And stop destroying America.

Illegal immigrants who come to America after a woman is already pregnant for the sole purpose of giving birth so the child can get citizenship and the parents can use that as an excuse to stay in America is an abuse of our constitution, and an insult to every immigrant who has come here legally, and every other immigrant who is waiting for their turn to come here legally. If an illegal immigrant got impregnated by an American citizen then the child would be an American, but that's not what happens, and American taxpayers should not have to keep paying for illegal immigrants leeching off of our country. It may sound cruel, but it's not our responsibility to take care of the rest of the world.

Australia ended it's birth right citizen in 1981. Now, the babies born here have to have at least 1 parent who is a citizen or PR, in order to be a citizen. If both parents are not citizens, the child automatically becomes a citizen when the child turns 10 and both parents become citizens too, but the parents have to have some kind of work visa, Student visa, or some kind of visa that allows them to stay and work here. Unless they have changed it. So, good for you America. Boris Johnson was born in the USA and grew up in the UK but the US gov wanted some of that tax money when he tried to sell his house in the UK.

I’m an American citizen who was born in the United States (Hawaii). Everyone has the right to support or not support President Trump’s plans for mass deportation. The interviewer asked this Mexican American woman her opinion and she’s entitled to her opinion. There are a lot of Hispanic people who agree with Trump. I don’t think she’s turning her back on her family by saying “it’s okay” if they get deported. I think she’s respecting and supporting the rules of Immigration laws to have legal documentation to live in the United States. Rather than disrespecting and ignoring Immigration laws the way her family did. I think in a way she’s saying “it’s okay” her family gets deported because they deserve to be penalized for breaking Immigration laws for entering and staying in America for 20 or 30 years illegally which is valid and understandable. It comes down to the phrase “You commit the crime you do the time” whether it’s family or not. I believe she has a leg to stand on because she followed Immigration laws, received her Green Card and is living in the United States legally. If a family member of mine committed a crime and were put in jail or deported back to their country I would say “it’s okay” too. You reap what you sow.

From the uk america wants to be careful that country's may turn to china

Trump creates prime reason for tariffed countries to turn to China and ZIndia for better terms. \nIt diminishes America

I love America but if this turns into a war I will fight for my country Mexico and im sure theres many out here that feel this way.

Trump wants to destroy America and replace it with a racist and bigoted country. He wants to turn America in a white Christian nationalist fascist country based on the Vladimir Putin Russian model. He wants to be president for life.

“The Oppressed Becomes The OPPRESSOR”? Her warped mindset can be a self-esteem issue borne of her own oppression — perhaps a belief that oppression of others is a sign of her strength & creates a feeling of false power, through her assimilation?. She drank the KOOK-AID?‍?, believing her 1 vote put her above her own family members? She thinks she’s now on equal par w/??45/47/MAGA/Program 2025/white ppl?? I hope she doesn’t turn her family in to get a pat on the back from the right wing extremists nuts that still hate her existence on earth as a Mexican; that’s Dehumanization 101‼️They’ll deport her first, & let her figure out how the hell she can come back to America. She may need a serious wake-up call like that to remember who she is, w/PRIDE, not w/HATE. Unconscionable & a Total Disgrace is this female???

One point that a lot of fellas forget is that this crisis also affects neighboring nations. Gangs from Mexico to Ecuador are making a lot of money with human trafficking. Fighting against this reduces the amount of money organized crime earns and in turns helps other countries in the Americas.

There's a piece missing in the puzzle. Has anyone asked where's Mexico in all of this? everyone seems to forget that they're America's southern neighbor, and they're not helping with anything to mitigate the border crisis. Mexico has to be sanctioned, because they're not actively partaking in the protection of the shared border with the US, they're allowing immigrants to cross the border unchecked, sparing themselves the trouble of dealing with them. They're throwing the ball in America's court, making immigration America's problem. Since they share the border with America, they have an obligation to combat illegal immigrantion but they're not doing that. They want to get rid of their crimnals and the poverty in their country not by enforcing the law and trying to invest in their infrastructure to enhance the living standards of their people, instead they're encouraging them to move to America to find a better life. America doesn't have to pay the price of Mexico being a failed country. They're turning their backs on their own citizens and trying to get rid of them, obliging them to take the perilous journey across the border where they're prone to crime, drugs, rape, human trafficking, sex trafficking, child abuse and all sorts of tragedies but to them the ends justify the means, and they have the nerves to call America racist and inhumane for not rescuing them from the situation that they created for them in the first place. Since the vast majority of illegal immigrants came across the border with Mexico, they should be deported back to Mexico, and Mexico can take it from there, not our problem anymore

Spoken from a women caught in a time warp, the same thing that happened to my relatives in Poland in 1914 when their government taught them to turn on their own family members, some were taken in the dark of night and disappeared for good. They fled Poland to work in America. Now there is no longer a safe place to go like they had in their day.

15 million is a generous estimate. Probably mich higher tbh. Americans really are blind to whats really going on. Thousands per day. There's an app, illegal app I might add, that the illegals were using that was set up by the crooked Biden Administration and was used for coning into America. The illegals were shipped into all the swing states. Why? Because they were expected to vote Democrat. What happens when swing states now potentially have hundreds of thousands of new Democrat voters? They turn that swing state into a democratic state, solidifying their inevitable win. So, what happened, why didn't they win you ask? Because they didn't expect the massive turnout at the voting machines. They didnt count on the amount of democrat voters in 2020 to open their eyes and switch to republican because it's obvious the country was turning into absolute garbage. People should be thanking their Almighty God that Kamala didnt win. Trust me when I say that. There would never have been another real election if they had 4 more years. It would've overwhelmingly been a one party nation from now on. We would only be voting for WHICH democrat we wanted to be the puppet of the mega rich: Bill Gates, etc.... People need to open their eyes and stop believing EVERYTHING they see on the news. Dont you know by now that the news only echoes what the democrats want them to say. Just like Biden and Kamala. They only read the teleprompters, pay attention. Kamala stumbled on repeat mode for several minutes each time there's an error on her teleprompter. WAKE UP AMERICA. THIS AINT SOME CONSPIRACY THEORY. ITS LITERALLY HAPPENING RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES!!

Get them out, then they turn around and come back in illegally. Plus, where are they going to take them to? They gonna drop them off at the airport in their country are the countries gonna allow American planes to land there? There is so much more to it. What about abandoned properties and homes that people can’t afford to pay for because your family members are deported or cars that are left on the street because they’re deported jobs that aren’t filled anymore who’s gonna fill them because they’re deported there’s so much more to this what about just trying to make more people legal in America? We obviously need the workers because a lot of Americans don’t want to do what they do. There’s gotta be an easier way to do this.

Trump is a Nazi. He will destroy America as a democratic society and turn into a giant “shithole country”.

Hey Democats!! The recent election had NOTHING to do with race or gender. Your hatred based on dishonesty creating division only turned the people away from your side. It is about honesty, morals and freedom. It was about the economy that your side only seems to want to make things worse. It was about representatives should be looking out for our country and our citizens. America first is the only way any of our representatives should think!!! They still don't get it. The American people aren't falling for your lies anymore!!

America will turn into a third world country if these invasion won’t be stopped! Go Trump!

Trump's goal is to lock people out and keep the American's in he hates to get his bloody justice against them.\nHis Reich is coming to America and his violent minion supporters are salivating to get on board to have that green light turned on by Trump so they can have their violent bloody revenge. That's what's gonna happen.

We are not a communist country we are America we have laws that the Democrats have no fucking interest in supporting you go out turn around and you come in the right way I know somebody who’s been waiting to become an American citizen for eight fucking years and owns a business

I dont understand why America and Canada dont come up with some form of agreement where somehow harmonize immigration and close all of North America to anyone showing up at any border. Turn them around without questions asked.
