Sorry, guys, but I do agree with Donald Trump. We need to do something about everyone coming into our country. Illegals into our country and I did say. Illegals, we should be supportive and even whenever they come into our country. They should have a job they should pay for their own food. Nobody gave me a handout. I want to know why I have to pay for them a hand out. American people are sick of it are just d*** right sick of I say send them back. Where they belong, we can't afford to get our own homeless off. The sthree we should be working on earth. Not anybody else but us. And I'm talking about no other country. We should be working on getting our homeless office. Detroit built more housing for our homeless people. Are homeless are poor people that need jobs too

Trump to recognise Somaliland soon. Somaliland people want their sovereignty over their country back from illegal Europe, China, Russia and Arab people denial of our right.

This brings so much joy to see all these would b illegals throwing adult temper tantrums becuz they cannot enter my country Illegally n collect a free financial ride. They r swarming n panicking like a bunch of rats they r. Trump warned them not to come n now they must turn around and come back the right way. Look at the way they r carrying on. Are these the type of people u want in our country

Do people realize they are doing this ILLEGALLY?! There’s a reason why they want to leave their own country but they need to do it LEGALLY! That’s all Trump and every other Republican wants.

This is what trump is talking about they come in drives and their countries have plenty of America's money and resources and I've visited these places their beautiful and cheap to live in they want to come here to rob steal and kill them they go back to their homeland and start missing in action their definitely not poor, period and Americans can't move over in their countries illegally period, Amen

Trump wants the country to be majority white, not fake white like latins, lite Indians etc. Anglo Saxton white.other than white people he wants it to contain only former slaves, and few few few others

I wish the Dems would realize that illegal entry cannot stand. Trump needs to make a decree that makes it impossible to get anything from any level of government. That would stop the flow immediately. Most of these aren't people working toward a goal, they just want to escape their impoverished country. Stay in your own countries, stop voting in Socialists, and make your governments responsive to the common good. You can have what America represents to you with some work.

I hope Columbia will ban everything from coming into their country from the United States. And Columbia should not allow anything to come in from their country from the United States. Trump will take this country broke and he will put this country into another depression . Thank MAGA for putting this idiot back into the United States . Expect all prices to go up because other countries will put their own Tariffs on the United States just because Trump is a idiot and will always be a idiot. What a ass hole we have as a President if you want to call this ass hole Trump a President.

If they want to fight for the country and commit their life to it wtf is the problem disgusting trumps just goin too far

This is not the behavior our military wants or needs. Other countries look at transgender as weakness and craziness, and this position is harmful to our country. This is now what Trump is making decisions about, and the voters have spoken. We don't want tax dollars spent on anything trans.

There is nothing wrong with a transgender in the military she wants to serve our country so be it. Bone spurs Trump didn’t.

Promises made, promises kept. Thank you President Trump. America wants its country back.

My daughter went to WestPoint, got top grades in geophysics, did two tours of duty in Iraq. And she changed her gender to male . He isn’t interested in dating anyone, he just wants to do a good job in the reserves. He is a major now….was that all for nothing? Trumps hate and paranoia is ruining this country.

Because Biden told them to surge the border and they forgot a new commander in chief has taken over! His name is Trump and he stands on his word. Those wanting to come into our country must come legally or face the consequences.

The last thing this country needs is more trash illegally coming into the US, stay in your own country , no one wants illegal immigrants here border is closed , thank you president Trump.

You know there's something SUS AF when even the country where these illegals are coming from dont' want them back. I don't like Trump, I think he's vile but I do agree with what he said about countries flushing their toilets on us. How better can you put it and confirm it when their own countries refuse to take them back.

Undocumented?? They are criminals here illegally CNN quit your political correct garbage. Your viewers want to hear the truth, not some washed down soft version of the animals that are being deported. Wonder why your going under, that is one of the reasons. \n\nThank You President Trump for getting these illegals out of our once safe country. CNN, you don't get any thanks hurry up and go bankrupt please.

Everybody has some sort Internet connection. They need to look up what Tariffs are. When Trump was campaigning he said he was going to put a 25% tariff in China and all of his supporters cheered and clapped ! I’m sitting here going don’t they know that that increase cost is going to be pushed down to the consumer?!?!! It’s the everyday American who is going to end up paying that 20% 25% increased in cost!!! it’s going to affect our living standards and not in a good way! Not the wealthy people in this country who Trump says he’s going to protect because they’re his friends! I don’t get it! Trump is sitting here, threatening to put tariffs on all the countries that’s not doing what he wants them to do! And people cheer! Unless you’re the wealthy, you’re gonna be screwed with the cost-of-living that’s gonna be reflected in those tariffs!!

This is the lesson that, a country should not be a shelter home for every migrant. Trump was right about that.\n\nColombia now don't want their people in the country. ??

? *We voted for this we want this, as Americans we want America cleaned up* I don't care if ICE goes in the middle of the night or if they go during the day and take children out of elementary schools... these illegals have to go back home, and they have to go now, immediately!!! We're taking our country back and there's nothing that these Advocates groups and the civil rights groups can do about it, because they're not supposed to be here! Everyone can blame Joe Biden why this is happening in the first place and we can all thank President Trump for cleaning up Joe Biden's mess

I think Indian govt's stance is best in this case.\n'Give us a list of our people you want to deport, give us proofs why you think they are illegals, and we will arrange for the planes ourselves, no questions asked. You won't even have to bother about transporting them, just bring them to the air port, we will fly them back.'.\n\n\nAnyways Indian govt had been warning Canada about this migration for past 8 years. Literally imploring them to not take these guys in. They aren't running away from persecution, they are running away from prosecution. But sadly Canada became a safe haven for criminals in India to run and hide into. Now don't blame India or Indians for it. We warned you, we had a spat with you. You lectured us how free and democratic you are and how your doors are open to all. NOW SUFFER.\n\nFor the Americans.....i don't feel a thing. They are mostly racists bunch (liberals more than conservatives, but yeah 99 percent of them are pure vile racists). I enjoy watching their country undergoing a very slow implosion right Infront of our very eyes. Trump is a good and capable leader. But what can he really do? His main voter base (which actually did not matter in the elections, it was the minority votes which tilted the scales) is simply uneducated, uninformed, racists. I don't know if they are inherently racist or that racism is born out of ignorance to begin with. But it is what it is. And the othtrr side is loony. ?. You have hate filled racists on one side and crazies on another. That country is destined to be doomed. I hardly find any centrist sane individual who can actually get over the superficial racial or identity stuff and actually talk policies in depth. Both sides are like... For us or against us. What can Trump even do with such population base. They have to import people to keep their quality on top... Else they are done for within next 200 - 250 years.

Imagine how other countries look at America, knowing Donald Trump will throw huge tariffs & sanctions at their country if they don’t give him what he wants.

Trump is crazy, this and much more will get worse and worse, why doesn't he start deporting Melania and J.D Vance's wife also? LOL, ALL countries should block all these flights, the Colombian president is right, give each person a dignified process before sending them back, if it was your father, friend, niece, uncle, acqaintance etc. would you want them suddenly deported??!??

Border control and immigration are absolutely a major issue that needs to be addressed. For instance, Canada should have been on top of border control a long time ago. Safety for Canadiand AND Americans. But Canada can't just give in. Where does it end. Everytime Trump wants something he is just going to keep threatening with tariffs. Do as i say or 25% tariffs. This is not a way to deal with other countries.

Amazing how these fine people who should remain in America (according to some) were not wanted back by their own country. When they were willing (for about an hour, LOL) to have a trade war because that's how badly they did not want them back, it goes a long way to prove that Trump is right.

So lets say if all the countries in South America, don't agree with trump hes gonna impose tariffs. Now no country wants to pay extra so their gonna reach out to China and Russia for security. Next thing you know the pacific is storming with chinese and russian vessels. Is this what trump wants??

Donald Trump acts like a little Hitler. Go ahead Donald You just goes for those tariffs on everybody and see our exports drop like a rock seriously sunny and the price of everything in the stores quadrupling. I actually hope so I actually hope eggs go to $30 for 12 eggs I hope tomatoes are 15 bucks of tomato and avocados or $30 an avocado and a t-bone steak is 100 because American people just we have it too good in this country for so long now we get a president that's acting like a dictator and violating law after law in the first week he tried to get rid of the inspector generals The ID inspector general and they just told Donald well we're not going to quit You can't make us quit You're vitally in the law Mr Trump we're showing up to work Monday. I hope mos The people in the garment to tell Donald to shove it up his backside that were coming into work and only have allegiance to the Constitution not a want to be Hitler or dictator or king we only pledge our allegiance to the Constitution and since you don't you didn't put your hand on the Bible I don't see you as president Donald what your left hand can't put your hand on the Bible and swear it oath to the Constitution is it that hard or are you swearing at nose to Vladimir Putin I bet that's what you're doing I mean you act like you you're butt off by some big billionaire Elon the ketamine snorter

*The problem is that Trump never thinks anything through. You can’t just deport thousands of migrant workers who fulfill important jobs that Americans don’t want…jobs such as farming, agriculture, meats and poultry and other service jobs. I have a huge problem with indiscriminate deportation. There should be selective deportation, the illegals who are committing crimes…yes deport them. Most undocumented workers aren’t committing crimes, they commit crimes at a lesser rate than Americans. We need the hardworking migrants to support our economy. The prices of eggs are already high enough, this will only contribute to higher prices as many critical jobs will remain unfilled. This is another dumb move by Trump to give Americans the facade that he’s cleaning up the country.*

No countries want to deal with a criminal FELON like TRUMP.\nGo deal with Putin, and Netanyahu.

Donal trump want to run the United States of America like a bissnes not like a country so the world get ready ????????

Since trump doesnt want someone letting criminals into our streets , then maybe he shouldn't do it . And if he really wants criminals out of the country, why is he still here?

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.

Trump and the MAGA morons should look up the meaning of trade in a dictionary. There is a give and take, there’s buying and selling, that meets the needs of both parties. Trade tariffs is not how anyone with common sense wants to deal with any and every minute dispute like a senseless toddler. Both sides get hurt. Even the tariffs on Russia hurt other countries that imposed them too and that was a calculated move because the war calls for extreme measures.\nWhat the Trump sycophants that probably can’t read need to know is that Colombia accepted hundreds of these flights in the last few years. The only reason they pushed back now is on human indignity. This is the first they received a flight with their civilians cuffed up like animals. The Colombian president said that is not how you treat humans, at least not my people, send them back in a civilised way where they are not dehumanised and we’ll take them. He even sent his own planes later and took them back.\nA sane leader would order his team to review the process and advise them of appropriate measures going forward. An insane, thin skinned snowflake throws tantrums in their diapers and these Trump tariffs are precisely that. Sure, this will reduce the cost of living for the idiots that voted for him ??‍♂️

Meanwhile, most people of Greenland, who are full Danish citizens and can travel freely to live/work anywhere within the EU Schengen Area, don’t want to become Americans by not allowing their country to become a U.S. territory. Perhaps a $100K offer by President Trump to each resident of Greenland will quickly change their mind as they only have a population of about 57,000 people which will cost the U.S. only $5.7 billion. This is what “The Art of the Deal” is all about.

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.

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.

I am so glad those countries are standing up to this bully and his fascist party. I am also glad he is putting tariffs on them which means things over here will become higher for all of us. Yes the good is going to have to suffer with those that wanted to see how it feels to have this country ran by the lawless, no morals racists people in this country. To have rapist, drunks and traitor to this country in charged. And those White people that voted for him they are going to feel it to maybe even more because he takes his money right out of their account every month and they can not stop it. They need to listen to Billy Graham sermon called Choices. Please do not never think Franklin Graham is like his father he is not he is like the father that Christ speaks about in John 8 verse 44 and all those that voted for Trump and helped spread or spreading his lies. The word called them oligarchies and Trump calls them his people but the bible calls the MAGA party, the false men and women that help spreads his lies and those that worship Trump an Idolater. All of them are from Franklin Graham to the proud boys. These so call men and women of their god have deceived many for him. Those corrupted judges or no different than the proud boys. The whole MAGA party is no different than the proud boys. These people are no different than the racists proud boys, 700 club, TBN, Jentezen Franklin, Donnie Swaggart, John Hagee, Jim Jordan, Mike Johnson, Mike Huckabee, Paula White. No different just different level in life but in God's eyes they all on the same worshipping a man. And to the rich read about the rich man that went to hell, and about the rich man that built his barn. We only make them strong they can only do what we allowed them to do. There are more good in this country than those evil people. I hear a man say you can take 100 evil people and make millions fall in line and do what they say because they fear what the evil people can do. One thing I do know for sure God and me are enough... but God and me and millions more of children we will do just fine in the next two years and more.

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.

Trump was right all along. They aren't sending their best... The don't even want their own back into their own country. Send em all Back!!!!!!

If a country doesn't do what trump wants then it's tariffs and taxes ?

yes WELL DONE TRUMP KEEP UP You know you are bad when even your country doesn’t want you back. \nWe need nothing from Colombia, we will look for it in other places, the world is huge

I would ordinarily be defending the USA. But this is Trump. And it’s being pushed without setting it up. They want to know what is going on. Naturally ! But Trump doesn’t think anyone or any Government can oppose him. The South American countries are dog walking our corrupt Leader. He’s a disgrace to America

So nephews let me SPAIN IT TO YOU! The BRICS countries will come in and buy up the Colombia surplus and build deeper relations with them. \n\nSo Asshole in a cheap suit = Trump isn't going to get what he wants but isolate the US more eventually hurting the Economy. \n\nFor those that support him go buy some of his coins

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

Imagine how the world looks at U.S., knowing Donald Trump will zap other countries with tariffs & sanctions whenever he does not get what he wants from them.

Go home and Demand your leaders back home to support your family rights freedom protection food shelter school and jobs the same way you all voted for charges here do the same back home stop running from your country and fight to build it to be the greatest country for yourself and you will never have to go through this in your life again man will fail you but God will never forsake you it's a sign time run out you all got court in the change you all voted for against your self this is f up why did you all vote for trump knowing he's a man to his word whether he's right or wrong his going to get his way because you all give him the right to do what ever he wants to do with your life in God we continue to trust hallelujah amen ??

why is Trump want to dump the deportees in any country, that's not acceptable, he's acting like he owns the world

This country PURPOSELY sent their garbage here and the dumb ass Democrats signed up to let them. Thank you God for putting Trump back in office. GET THEM OUT!\nI was attacked by a “migrant” in 2006 while training for a marathon in Chicago. I was left for dead. I have zero empathy for these people that come here illegally- and frankly are sent by their own countries that don’t want them. Get out. I’ve been an independent for years but I am firmly camp Trump now. Call me a cultist if you want IDGAF. ❤❤❤

Good for Columbia. Stand proud and stand tall 60% of America is behind you all the way. The tariffs won't affect your country just makes prices higher for us which is what trump wants to do to keep all of us suppressed as all dictators do!!

Good we wanted these criminals out of our country who were breaking into apartments and taking over our places , so now stop complaining on what he’s doing doing. Biden should of done this years ago and we’re having to clean up his mess. Trump just don’t play games. You play games, you win stupid prizes, so see what Columbia jus won, ya hahahah
