Why should they accept criminals in their country though, wtf.

Why any country will accept a flight full of criminels whitout any discussion about them?

Columbia is matching those tariffs. USA thinks they can bully other countries. You cannot, bit nobody has to accept it. USA will lose a tariff / trade war as other countries will fill those trade gaps like human beings and not dollar store dictators

Thankyou President Trump! He told them how it is and now they are accepting their criminals back. Biden would have just kissed their butt and asked jill for another dipey change!

The president of Columbia did not back down you maga drongos. Trump backed down. The people being deported were taken away, uncuffed, and the president sent his own plane to pick up the Colombians like human beings. \nTrump lost . Columbia will gladly accept its people’s return, what it won’t accept is American sending them back like cattle . Return them humanely

Before you deported anyone back to their origin, you need to negotiate seriously to benefic both side. You cannot flex your muscles and expect they bound-down to you without seeing that they will get some kind of benefits. The deportations may end up costing the U S billions if all the Central and South America Continent refuse to accept the deportees. All flights end up go back to the U S with full migrants on the planes.

They should accept their own citizens. US is not accepting criminals from other countries

Hmmm , I wonder why Columbia wouldt want to accept their own citizens back into their own country ??? Gee Golly , I just wonder why … SMH

CNN, bullshit! Now see what Trump’s threat has achieved-Colombian reversed its decision to accept the migrants.

They said they couldn’t promise that they wouldn’t get shot down ??? Columbia almost started a war because they didn’t want to accept their own people. And we get oil from them now gas will go up ?

MAGA Granada fused to accept Trump Pardon. I am very proud of her. I agree with her. If I had done that, I would have done the same as her and not took it.

Best for Columbia's president to do the right thing & accept them back now. If not all Americans will view him as dumping his nation's trash at our doorstep, which weakened our national security & had done imessurable damage, upon which I'm certain President Trump will take swift action against him as an example to the other nation's leadership, and you don't wanna be THAT GUY! They cross Trump at their own peril, but the guy's a wizard at destroying people, places, or things, even your ideas if it pleasures him. Both parties are have rediculously long memories & do hold grudges. Case in point, Cuba. They never will allow Cuba to be anything other that a floating rock prison. Please do the right thing & take YOUR people back. We're at least giving him the bennifit of knowing who they are, and what they are BEFORE they can hurt your nation & act accordingly & it'll all be good. You need a little help, just reach out & let us know. We're here to work with you, not against you.

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 ??‍♂️

Columbia wants The US to deliver Illegals in 1st class with steak & lobster before they’ll accept THEIR Citizens ?

Lmfao you can seriously tell just how dum people are in this comment section because their still commenting with dum a$$ statements without even knowing that colombia already reversed their decision and are accepting the illegal migrants ????. People really gotta stop chilling in echo chambers

Colombia, Panama, Mexico, Canada, Denmark (and its EU partners), China and many others... the only acceptable trading partners are Russia and North Korea in Trump's mind? Good luck America.

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.

Quid pro quo for accepting people Trump says are from Columbia.

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

LOL Colombian president has already apologized and will be accepting their criminal citizens back. This was within 2 hour of trump threatening them with economic and diplomatic sanctions! Did you all not see the letter the Colombian president just issued? And guess what? Columbian president is offering to send his own plane to pick up their criminal citizens! Y’all can still scream at the sky though?

We should take off the handcuffs once the illegal migrants are out of US airspace. Might eliminate all excuses to accept the deportation flights

Yes that's gonna be a problem many countries won't accept deported ppl.

Newsflash the Colombian president has accepted taking his people back. Let’s go Trump. We love winning.

This started Friday in Brazil ?? when the interior minister with police and media boarded a US plane refueling in a Brazilian city carrying returning Brazilian migrants. The police acted surprised when they discovered the migrants were all handcuffed and leg ironed. They were removed, fed, showered and returned home by Brazil.\nThis was big news throughout the Latin countries.\nThe Colombian President would not accept his civilians being treating as criminals. Colombia ?? sent a plane to pick up their citizens without the mechanical restraints.\nColombia has now imposed a 50% tariff on all American products and seeking other countries to partner with, in effect shutting out the US. This is gonna be so good for china’s ?? economy

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

Trump slapped hard these liberal whiny cry babies in the comment section ?He’s your boss, accept it.

Colombia does not have to accept these migrants legal or otherwise..trump thinks he can do something and everyone will comply...well the President of Colombia put a stop to that and all the tariffs that Trump puts on Colombia will hurt the american public more than anyone else..four yrs from now America will be in an economic disaster..

Colombian President Gustavo Petro quickly reversed course about accepting flights of deported migrants from the US after President Donald Trump threatened emergency tariffs of up to 50% on the South American country for refusing to cooperate. \n \nPetro not only acquiesced to Trump’s demands, he even offered up the official Colombian presidential plane to help shuttle migrants back to the country, calling it a response to “the Government’s commitment to guarantee decent conditions.”\n\nThe extreme left is very unhappy about this decision?

The Columbia government does not accept their own citizens how can our American government want them. ?

Good job CNN in contributing to the missinformation by ommiting the reason they rejected the planes, it's not that they aren't and won't be accepting their people. that's illegal under general international law, Colombia is rejecting the inhumane conditions in which america has decided to send them that's why they even offer their own planes to do it the right respectful and diplomatic way.

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

COLUMBIA NEEDS TO ACCEPT THEIR CITIZENS BACK INTO THEIR COUNTRY NOT ABANDON THEM. \n\nTHEY ARE CITIZENS OF COLOMBIA

Imagine being a country who refuses to accept their own citizens and say it’s because of “dignity and respect”

Tells you that other countries know these are bad people that they won't even accept their own citizens back.

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...

It's their citizens though? Ur not going to accept ur own citizens back!? This is ass backwards ?.

? u guys haven't changed. F Colombia and anything from Columbia Americans don't need or want their products! CONSUMERS DON'T CARE! and they don't have a monopoly on bananas lol. America is back and we don't want these socialist communist countries products. And that goes for China. They don't have a monopoly to tell us what they will n won't do! We tell them what we'll accept. Don't like it? Too bad SO SAD! Get a clue CNN

Colombia not accepting Colombians?

Colombia will accept deported people via commercial airlines not military planes with people sitting on a floor chained. Its about having some dignity that Trump doesnt have.

Colombia knows his game if they accept he will sill slap tariffs. Those are used for running a business not the country threatening other countries and demanding war. Narcissist violent psychopath behavior ?no one is doing shit about this he is tryna get richer for himself demanding other countries to pay him. Lying to his supporters by raising prices on them on everything.

*HOW DID JESUS VIEW POLITICS?* Satan, the devil, offered Jesus rulership over [all] the kingdoms of the world. Did Jesus accept the generous proposal? No. (Matthew 4:8-11) Jesus never got involved with human politics. Why? Human leaders cannot save us or direct their steps. (Psalms 146: 3; Jeremiah 10: 23) Only one government will fix all our problems on this planet—God's Kingdom when established on earth. (Matthew 6: 10) This wicked world aka society will soon end and be replaced during Armageddon. We will see more ceasefires until all authority and power is given to the beast aka the United Nations and they will say: “Peace and security!” The great tribulation is [just around the corner]. Are you ready? Trump will be remembered as a “peacemaker” indeed because he'll attempt to battle Christ with his 144,000 kings who will rule over the earth. (Revelation 5: 10) Then after that war, real peace will exist from sea to sea.

Traffics will increase costs initially, but American companies will start bringing jobs home as it costs them more to operate in foreign countries. The question is why is Columbia not accepting their citizens back! They know they sent their gangs and criminals to the US and don’t want to deal with them again!

Colombia did not accept because they were on military planes. If they would have been treated with respect and like human beings and arrive on commercial jets, they would have accepted. The same with Mexico. We would not like military jets or planes from other countries coming to our country. They are lucky they were not shot down. For all you MAGA people, there are thousands of jobs for you in the farming industry. We need our tomatoes, and oranges picked. Get to work MAGA and pick those crops.

When a country doesn't want to accept it's own citizens back. You understand very quickly the caliber of people on those flight's . Definitely not the best and brightest coming to the USA.

Maduro of Venezuela is also now going to accept his citizens!!! ?

Yeah this is what happens when you have a leader that actually has a backbone that walks his talk. Took less than an hour for Colombian president to recognize Trump ain't Biden and start actin right and accept those planes lol.

No. Military planes is threatening to any country!Colombia doesn't like the president sending them on military planes. He said he will accept the colombians if they are transferred in the normal planes migrants have always came back on. Actually the military planes cost us tax payers 20,000 a flight per hour. The traditional planes cost 8000. So just stick to the normal planes and everyone wins. It really is,all silly. Stupid news. Let's put some regulations on real estate market. So tired of drug money laundering used to buy homes and I cannot afford a home. This is just trump tv unnecessary drama!

Y'all writing stupidity. Why should another county accept people that are deported. If those people aren't from there? Send back the cubans to cuba. Venezuelans to Venezuela. Others nationality to they country. No other countries s should accept this BS

YES travel band and pause immigration acceptance to any Colombians. If it goes on cut of EAD on all Colombians not citizens. Cus that is bull.

IMPOSE AT LEAST 50% TARIFFS ON COLOMBIA , MEXICO OR ANY COUNTRY REFUSES TO ACCEPT THEIR GOD DAMN CITIZENS!!
