That is not a woman simple. Democrats keep on pushing bullshit agendas you will not be in power for a long time ridiculous

Don't understand why people are afraid when they break the law. It's simple with any other developed country.

There is in fact no actual housing shortage in the USA whatsoever. The problem is that that wealthy individuals have strong incentives to park excess capital in real estate and landlords have strong incentives to maintain asset values through cash flow potential (appraised through $/sq.ft rent revenues). What ends up happening in both cases is that you end up with lots of empty houses sitting collecting dust artificially gaining value due to scarcity, and with rentals, you end up with perpetually inflated rents and vacancy rates that are as high as a landlord can tolerate just to maintain the appearance of value to the lenders. Often these owners will borrow more money and use an apartment that might be 40% vacant as the collateral for the lender and go buy another building and so on. What people don't penalize is the fact that that 40% vacant building with 60% rented out at above fair value gets treated on the balance sheet to the bank as if its 90% rented out from an asset value perspective thereby setting the asset price artificially high. Simple legislation of the tax code can fix this issue and unlock lots of sidelined housing. All we have to do is progressively tax 2nd 3rd 4th ect. homes higher and higher rates that essentially cancel out the asset gains, and do something similar for vacant units in a apartment building. \nIts just at the core a case of the rich hoarding something that has been made artificially rare. On top of all of this, because of how valuable properties have become, there are now many interests that capitalize on the entire process of building new housing that make it ever more expensive. Our taxes are funding numerous regulators that stymie new development, while the developers have to then hire numerous attorneys and planners to pitch a project and litigate it through the cities to get approvals. This can take over 10 years in a major city. All this contributes to the ridiculous costs of building these days.

The female IS A pervert........sweet and simple

You fear the law when you break the law. Simple as that. ?‍♂️

Just LEAVE…. OR stop pretending to be a woman! Fairly simple. He foisting something else.

If you are sick enough to not know whether you were born with a penis or vagina than you have no business around weapons. Simple as that.

The message is simple. If you are illegally in America get out. It sounds like Germany would welcome you.

This is a man, plain and simple. There’s no such thing as transgender. No amount of medicine, makeup, or mutilation can change one’s gender. To think so is ludicrous. MAGA!!

Go back to your country and try reentry the legal way! If you don’t comply don’t even try, we don’t want you here unless you do it right. \nWhat’s not right is to expect the ppl here to pay your way when we’re denied of simple things like housing, safe country etc. \nNO MORE!!!

It is very simple. There is a large part of Americans who are bigots and refuse to accept people that are different than them.

I have a friend who’s trans and I’ll put it to those who don’t understand why trumps is doing this\nWhen your in the military your no longer free your Government property \nAnd if your going to say your trans your putting that before the mission. Simple you can do that on your own time but on military time you and your beliefs don’t matter.

I certainly would refuse to fight alongside trans people. Simple as that. Get em out!

No, if you're confused about simple biology, you're unfit to command. Serving is a privilege, not a right. The military is not a social experiment.

As a combat veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, multiple times, I completely agree with the president’s anti-trans policy in the military. Soldiers have a hard enough job as it is much less stacking on some DEI nonsense. That’s only gonna take time away from their training and ultimately DEI is going to 100% negatively affect the mission and their safety. Of personally over a 10 year period served with a couple gay and lesbian Service members and never once was what they did in the privacy of their own bedroom ever an issue or counter to the mission but this new age woke DEI nonsense is completely counterproductive, dangerous, And disrespectful to the non-DEI service members. The simple act of picking an unqualified, military leader, who’s responsible for the care and lives solely on the gender, ethnicity, religion, or pronoun, and not on merit, experience, competency, or any of the other real requirements for a military leader is literally the most irresponsible, dangerous, and disrespectful thing you can do to the men and women who have literally dedicated their life for years in service of our country! There’s absolutely no excuse on this planet that would make it ok. Being a service member in combat is already the most stressful job on the planet, but to make them take their focus off of the immediate threat to focus on political correctness or someone’s magical mystery pronoun while trying to prioritize and mitigate threats and combat is the most asinine and literally dangerous Nonsense I’ve ever heard!??????

Instead of basing your politics on fear and not knowing someone you have already failed! Get to know Transgender individuals. They are no different than you and I. Geez! I am so tired of the judgments of those who think they can play God. When there is only one God that has the right to judge. So, let the one and only God judge us humans, and stop trying to play God yourselves. It is all about doing the bidding of the oligarchy class for the greed of money and power. That's it! Donate to me and I will do your bidding! No matter what it is! Greed is really ugly! God will condemn those eventually one way or another. Thy will be done not humans who claim to know what God wants in us human beings. Scripture states: Love thy neighbor as thyself. Judge not lest ye be judged. Plain and simple!

the fact is that those who transition have to take hormonal treatments for the rest of their life. regardless of the qualities someone who is trans may have placing them in military units create problems. in addition there is the fact that transitioning may have other long term health effects that would raise the cost of medical benefits for our soldiers and veterans. this is not the simple issue of discrimination based on sexual identity that CNN wants to portray it as. whether we have a tax based economy or a tariff economy in the future up until now it is the American taxpayer that has had to fund military expenses including health care for our soldiers and veterans.

He can serve as a man, it’s that simple

Anyone who is confused of what gender they are should not serve, plain and simple

This can't even be an issue, this is about the morale and readiness and effectiveness of our military nobody wants to join the military to be labeled gay. It's pretty simple

It's simple. The juice isn't worth the squeeze.

.... i cant take a man who dresses up like a woman serious, simple enough

This is simple. Trans people are extremely rare. Most of the people that claim trans are not they are just insane.

Sick of seeing this..she male..why? Can't it be that simple...God created man and womsn. Why she male?

If people pass all requirements the military requires they should not be denied to serve plain and simple, stop the backward thinking.

Gender has nothing to do with it! It’s a far right issue and religious cult ideology . Plain and simple.

The one thing i agree strongly with this guy even tho he is full of empty promises might get more done with congress on his side this time but too many immigrant in our country too my city is unrecognisable and i am serious its getten even a bit intimiditing tje hatred undercurrent in our city these foreigners hate our guts and its our country and we are called the hater its our help and support that is less and less our nhs overrun we sont get the services we arw due because there are too many immigrants in our countries it SIMPLE do not take ordainary people as idiots and produce all this flannel about being humanist charity begjns at home these are prinicipals our grandparents installed in us doesnt me we are unkinnd or wouldnt help anyone but tjeres a limit i feel intimidated daily by foreingers and im a hater for such remarks aye right who are you politicians kidding no wonder trump has such a following even tho i am not a fan of the man but he is bang on here

I can’t find the proper words to describe how I’m feeling about the life in Canada! I feel extremely disappointed and angry. EVERYTHING has changed since the early 80s unrecognizably, even the service and how different people treat or mistreat each other!! There is no more courtesy, politeness and human respect in hospitals, government offices, banks, etc. \nThe elected government officials are mostly corrupt, unfit for their duties and pursue only a personal agendas in promotion to a higher level! \nRight now, as of January 2025 we are again expecting endless flows of refugees from Gaza along to anticipated tax increases imposed by Trump. \nI have no more words! I feel that this country becoming a dump with an unbearable quality of life. I am feeling mostly depressed and feel no joy due to current conditions and limited opportunities here. I simple cannot even stand it any more and can’t wait when I would be able to find a new place of my residence outside of Canada!

You guys filed for schooling not living they are different applications. You finish school You ARE TO GO HOME NOT STAY simple as that. And what is this demanding things this is Canada not India

looks more like theyre trying to get out… “vieje Feliz” is typically a sign as you leave an area… not entering…Im sick of the disinformation and the simple acceptance by ppl smh

This is what happens when you let them just come on in since 1987.Few people know how this all started, or who started it .These people simply wouldn't even show up if we did one simple thing. Require anybody who's not born here to have a valid passport and visa on them to not only enter the country, but to do ANYTHING else too .

It is insane. Me and my husband paid few hundred thousands on taxes the last year. For what ? To feed those people who commit crime? It is very simple for me- crossing the boarder illegally is a crime.\nMe and my husband both paid our immigration fees when we did our immigration. Why we have to support that nonsense ??

The logic is simple Palki . U keep your mouth shut lol

please exuse my simple mind..if any other country would send their unwanted people in planes to america...would they be allowed to land????

Create refugee camps (let United nation run them) and put illegal immigrants there until their own country take them back if they don’t take them immediately or they don’t choose to walk back cross the border that they illegally crossed before. Simple!

That was simple... loving Tariff and Chief!

The Americans, the end users/consumers pay the tariffs imposed by Trump. The importer/exporters passes this additional cost/tax to end users/consumers. The government earns this tariffs...as simple as that.

Simple just make deal with each other

That’s all they can do threatening language about Visa. Good for you all, fix your damn Country instead depending on America for everything. I would banned America outright! Simple as that. Is America God or what? I’ll go with the Danish lawmaker every day!

Tariffs that the American people will pay. It's that simple.

The answer is simple, Columbia let them leave and they are Columbian citizens. They need to be returned to Columbia.

Tariffs have zero affect on Americans who don't buy products from Columbia. If you are buying a product from Columbia and its price goes up, don't buy it or buy your product from another country. It's that simple.

It appears CNN is having difficultes keeping up with Trump so here's the current scoop... Pesident Gustavo has already folded and even offered his presidential plane to help deport Colombian citizens from the US. For the other countries who thinks President Trump is playing games, his message is simple, it's four letters: FAFO!

Some people just don't understand that Trump does not play around. He's a man of his word and he'll take you down. Simple as that

Very simple. Put them. In commercial flights.now you see. If their own country are not willing to take their own citizens. All citizens are doomed

maybe not everyone is colombian? It would be good to cooperate before you start flying people. Mr. Dump cannot operate in a controlled manner. Simple weird guy, this has been seen many times already.

These Liberal Pinheads keep pushing their BS . Tariffs don't affect USA Consumers . Most Countries around the World have had Tariffs against the USA for Decades on certain Goods . It's a Protectionist Tool to keep USA Goods out of their Countries . The EU has had Tariffs against USA Cars for Decades now . Trump has railed against that for Years . USA Consumers will buy what they want or can Afford . If Countries that are Tariffed try to Raise the Prices of their Tariffed Goods to bet aroud the USA Tariffs , Trump could either reject their Goods with Sanctions , OR American Comsumers just won't buy them simple as that . The USA doesnt need alot of Products from other Countries Really . Those Countries need the USA Market More so they will comply with USA Demands eventually

So we just don’t buy food from Columbia, it’s simple. We can do without their food

It's not gonna hurt Colombia. All they're goin to do is find somebody else to trade with. Plain and simple
