This good reporting Dennis...but it's true both Zelensky and Putin are Dictators.... Zelensky has been brutal on freedom of assembly speech and has banned religious groups..Putin we can't even talk about it...they have both committed war crimes...there is no law that allows war crimes coz you defending your self...

Trudeau and the NDP-Libs have left Canada a weakened, vulnerable and unproductive country, on the verge of economic disaster. This is all on Trudeau!\n\nWe have no leader, and the individual leading “Team Canada”, won’t be around to fulfil the commitments.\n\nThis is a group of leadership Premiers, trying but without any authority. \n\nWe have no working Parliament. \n\nAnd, they have completely ignored the issues laid before them, not just recently but for years. The border security issues (including the ports), the immigration issues, the fentanyl issues, the military issues…. overridden by woke waste.\n\nThey’ve destroyed our entire economy to reduce our supposed 2% responsibility for climate change. But we have done nothing to reduce or eliminate for our supposed 2% fentanyl responsibility. \n\nWe need Trudeau gone, Parliament restored, and an election called!

These groups want and they will invade the country if the US officials decide to pet them like that

18 year old soldiers in tight knit groups should not be forced to deal with this transgender stuff to satisfy Libs in power.

The Africans are more than likely Islamic and should be deported before Latin Americans.. if no other group should be deported start with the somalis gazsans and Palestinians, all of them all of them

Right now Canadaian borders are wide open, no one is actually running the country, same ppl who ruined the country are trying to get elected again without even an inch of remorse, it has become a breeding ground for terrorist supporting groups, foreign interference, everyone can do what evr they want without having to face consequences, smuggling hundreds of kilos of drugs easily across the borders...Canada is now a land that is imploding and a prime example of how to run a country to ruins in 9 yrs...

Mind boggling to me that there are Americans defending this crap. Seeing as how I'm from a city that's been severely affected by the Venezuelan crisis I'm glad to see them go. I don't care where just as long as it's not here and especially not on my dime since they've done nothing more than mooch off of us Chicago taxpayers at the the of 1 Billion dollars over the last several years. Whatever their plan was inviting these people here, giving them free housing free food etc ended up backfiring which is why Chicago has groups called Black people for Trump and Latinos for Trump. What's kind of funny is they did it to themselves.

Seems like an attempted land invasion. They know theyre commiting a crime crossing illegally so they group up thinking force and numbers will allow them to commit the crime of illegally entering the country. If you call j6 an insurrection when nobody had a gun, then this is an attempted invasion of our country. Load up and let it fly

She’s the type that would pull up a ladder on the same group she struggled with.

Why do those of us on the political left keep allowing those on the political right to dictate the terms of public conversations, even when we have the facts on our side? It is estimated that 1.7% of the world population is biologically intersex. That's roughly the same as the percentage of the world population that is naturally redheaded. Trump's executive order states that the US government only recognizes two biological sexes.  This means that as far as the US government is concerned, biologically intersex people don't exist. This is analogous to having an executive order saying redheads do not exist.  It's nonsense.  So, why aren't biologists from all over the country pointing this out? The percentage of the world population that identifies as transgender is at most 0.6%.  So why are we talking about transgender people when there is a larger group of people that Trump's executive order discriminates against?  Here's why: because folks on the left insist on allowing those on the right to set the terms of almost every debate we have in this country and folks on the right are happy to ignore intersex people (whose existence conclusively establish that their views are false) and those of us on the left stupidly follow their example in doing so. If we are serious about protecting trans people, we need to be smart about this. Let us reframe the public debate to focus on intersex people.  This will make exposing the lunacy of Trump's executive order much easier when engaging a general public that is too ignorant, lazy, and indifferent to educate themselves about trans people. So, let's help out the lazy ignorant masses by adopting a simpler (and more science-based) approach to the debate over whether there are two biological sexes by making the simple, scientifically sound observation that biological sex is bimodal, not a binary.  And not amount of executive orders can ever change that fact.

Just let them serve man like wtfffffff, Mr Donald Duck, you have no guts to operate your stomach in the military service and yet you damn not let certain groups to serve for the country ?!!!! You must be lied shamed

Those who are here illegally have no rights under the constitution. The groups helping them should stop telling them they have rights. They have none and the people of this country are sick of supporting them. They need to leave.

Major veterans group? WTF

If you have watched for the past 4 years this is how they did it. They let all the thugs and military style men and the prisoners from other country's in . Not to many family's came usual singles in groups dragging children through the gap.few women they rated and tortured the girls and little boys. Now these people are coming in massive amounts. 1 million was on back log already approved just had to get an appointment date. It was cut off from these ppl and they are mad because they gave up or sold everything based on Joe Biden And Kamala lies and treason selling out our country to the UN. The UN gave these ppl thousands to come .single men were told they were going to be soldiers when they got here. But UN stop reloading their visa cards with so much money. It gives on and on. Trust they will continue to take over. American best wake up and stop letting the communist Marxist Democrat devide us. Jeffries said today they will take the fight to the street. AOCdid too last week in a post on X. Do you think any of those rich democrats going to help.DjT gave 24 million to help hurricane victims on the coast. Nancy P has 300million do you think she would give 25.million to Cali. Heck no. Her and Newsom ripped billions off. Only Jesus Christ ?.

What are those facebook groups? Can you mention few

My friend is in mortgages and their firm uncovered a massive fraud scheme with a large Venezuelan group producing fraudulent accounts and documents to purchases homes. While most Americans can’t get one! They aren’t just coming for “help”

SO EN MASSE THIS GROUP BELIEVES THEIR DISMAL PERSONAL LIVES SUPERSEDES A NATIONS RIGHT TO NOT BE INVADED! FOR THAT FACT ALONE THEY SHOULD BE PERMANENTLY BANNED FROM EVER ENTERING THE UNITED STATES OR BEING GRANTED CITIZENSHIP!

I thought Trump was able to do something about this. Where are the military and national guards???\nDifficult to control such a big group, worst, if they are all able to escape and get in.

From what I know, a specific group of young students apply for a university in hope of working there or cross the border to USA.

Why are you seeing this ? Because you won't investigate who is behind it , all your saying is omg look at this , but there answers you won't report on , like supposed charity groups in Panama for one , why is the red cross involved in giving out pamphlet to illegal immigrants? Maybe your just not asking the right questions !

It doesn’t matter what ethnic group you are if you a illegal immigrant you’re gonna be on the list

Why would the military give special treatment to any single group. This is exclusive not inclusive.

Group will be 10 times larger with sheets of plywood in hand next time.\n Lay back enjoy the show.. Michael buffer and dana white will be guest hosts ?

If you think your aomething your not you cleary have mental health issues. Dont mean you couldn't do a good job. So could a depresed person.but its clealry not a good idea to send metally unwell people into dangrous stressfull combat situations.... this group takes there own lives more then jewish people living under nazl germany..... but its sociteys fault.... come on

Which group is next?

not a legitimate “veteran’s group“ these people are a disgusting distraction from the DOD’s only goal, killing America’s enemies.

If she served her country and did the job well then I respect her for her service just like everyone else. Everyone is an individual and not a group idenity. Isn't that what we accuse Democrats of doing? We want a merit based America, and it looks like she has the merit.

Why? Because the corruption group previously in charge said this was OK.

You should learn about folks and their lives, before you make judgement on a whole group of people.

Men have no business in women's spaces. It's crazy how democrats fail to understand that.\n\nAlso, a group with 40% suicide rate should not handle lethal weapons

It sounds to me he’s still in service. Where’s the problem here? Is this an assumption that he will no longer be able to serve? \n\nThe military counts are down because the prev administration wrongfully terminated these soldiers for refusing to take “the”vaccines. Citizens are not motivated to sign up because of all the crazy woke policies the military were enforcing. And many men and women with their beliefs are scrutinized, ignored and are forced to accommodate the entitlement granted to these group of people while everyone else’s are disregarded.

Transition meds are heavy duty narcotics. Impossible to deploy these people. Most CANNOT meet the medical requirements. A high percentage end up on disability and stay on our dime for life. Totally unfair to the taxpayer and their fellow soldiers. I do not believe CNN here. I've read too many articles citing all the negatives of their treatments and outcomes. Sure there is undoubtedly some that thrive but, as a group, they are a large drain on the military.

Thank for your service Commander! “Bone Spur” and the MAGA right are using Transgendered Americans just like the Nazi’s did Jewish people in WWII! By providing a focus group to hate they diverted attention from the awful treatments and perverted policies they were implementing.

Yeah, major veterans group.....

Trump should back off on this issue. At least transgender group are willing to serve their country, unlike Trump who had several deferments from being drafted during Vietnam Era.

What constitutes a “major veterans group”. ??? That sounds like a made up term.

I mean I have mixed feelings about the trans movement. But here is how I feel about this subject and always have. There needs to be one standard. It needs to be the highest standard in the world. and if any man, women, or trans person can't hack it then they do not serve. If they can hold up to the standards they should serve. I am a veteran that serve with a group of people in the Navy that demanded the highest standards. I would serve with man, woman, or trans person that can pull their weight. It is their country. Let them serve if they wish.

First let me say that I fully support anyone who is fully physically capable of doing whatever job that they are either enlisted to do or has been assigned to do within the military. \n\nIn a time where special forces doesn't mean bulked up freakishly high endurance or specific physical requirements are necessary.\nSpecial ops nowadays is also about mental acumen and ability to assess the entire picture and it is absolutely well known that certain physical factors are required to be on the front lines but to remove a very capable force that is a force multiplier in a time where it's absolutely needed and cannot be replaced quickly or even adequately is doing a massive disservice to our military and the citizens of this country just for the sake of a small group of individuals with small minds that couldn't step into that vacant position and adequately fill it with the same caliber of talent regardless of how they identify themselves!\nBeing the most lethal fighting military requires many talents and to remove those talents from the soldiers they support is absolutely hurting our military in ways that will take decades to rectify!\nThat soldier on the ground calling in drone strikes to get his or her soldiers out of the danger isn't going to care if they are trans or identify as LGBTQ only that they are able to safeguard their soldiers in whatever way they have been trained to do..\nOur military needs to be the most diverse in order to be the most lethal in the most diverse situations throughout the worlds stages!

Send them to war in their own group if they want to go that bad.

The government hired you as a male fighter pilot and later you switch genders and become transgender. Why?? Is it easier to climb the promotion ladder if you're of a certain group??

Insane how discrimination is promoted by groups of people who have no happiness or success in life

They're all going to pay to bring their national citizens home so they can group up and come for us. Can't even blame em ??‍♀️ we're so evil and greedy

I am an immigrant from India so what i am going to say is a harsh truth. A lot of people come to Canada and then expect to do the same things they were used to do in their own countries. They forms groups, buy house in the same ethnic neighbourhoods as theirs. Because of this they do not grow. Lots of people who have been in Canada for decades cant speak english properly. They bring issues of their own country with them. They just don’t grow.

You know what happens to any other large group that tries to invade another country?

When going to UAE we Mauritian show which hotel we r going to stay... In Europe too we have to show the duration of the voyage n place we r going to stay (if family it's invitation letter or hotel)... In India too we are mostly as businessmen or in a group tours...

As of 2022, an estimated 725,000 undocumented Indian immigrants were in the US, making them the third-largest group after those from Mexico and El Salvador, according to new data from the Pew Research Center. Unauthorised immigrants in all make up 3% of US’s total population and 22% of the foreign-born population

Keep protesting idk about Canada but in the US if illegally here protesting is illegal face covering while protesting illegal and film of protesters is analised ,Its stupid to gather in a group

I lived on the border in California 3years ago. When Biden took office, illegals were coming over the border in large groups. I woke up to them sleeping on my front porch, trying to walk in my house, and checking car doors. I had neighbors that were victim to car jacking. I was just glad I still had the 2nd amendment to protect myself and my family. This has gotten out of control!

All I see is the same bunch of peaceful friendly, police loving tourist group. Just like the one who visited the United States capital onJ6

all these countries south of the border are fully controlled by very corrupt politicans, the cartel, drug lords, etc. For the Mexican woman president to say mexicans are welcome is a bunch of BS. I am from latin America and it is a joke how for a hundred years the people running these countries have fully forgotten about their people and enriched them selves. The poverty in latin america can be solved by getting rid of all these politicans and groups that have created it. Once that happens, people will not have to migrate, most people do not want to live their culture or their countries.
