Deep down, even from themselves, “trans” individuals are just hungry for attention.. this is so sad. \nWhat this person is sharing IS irrelevant , because He was a Man during deployments. It was a lot of hype for you to go through this embarrassing act representing our country when we’re supposed to be the Strongest country in the world. Well- THIS IS WHY WE AREN’T ANY LONGER. Everybody awake?

OMG how do you go to somebody’s country and decide you’re not leaving when asked to and have the nerve to protest.

Bye bye don’t care if you’re from heaven ya gotta go!

If you're here illegally, you need to go back.

The fact they think they’re entitled and don’t have to go thru any process like everyone else is enraging.! Stop cutting corners and causing mass chaos wtf

I c people saying why don’t they do this in their country!!!!! Because in their country, they’re not getting free housing free food, free ride to wherever they want to go!!!!! This is why Biden and Harris in the Democrat party did!!!! Now any ice to do a mass deportation and I need to start at every construction site in America and they will go 80% of them right there period

Why are they trying to make it like they're going by race If you're an illegal, it doesn't matter what rate you are, you're gathering all up at the same time?Not one race after the other race !!!!! Stop the bullsh@#

Trump is targeted all illegal immigrants it makes no difficulty on Africa Jamaica if you illegal you got the go I am black but I'm America black if I was illegal I would be hit to go to but I got a Social Security number I worked in United States on my line and I'm born here in legal I want people can't seem to get that you can't come here illegally from another country looking for a better life but you going to do it illegally you're going to look for a better life illegally How can you look for a better life illegally

if you're going to post this exchange.. let it play out.. 0:32 why cut off his words?

Obviously all these people from Bobo suelo did not know about the news about not coming to America can you imagine the way they're still coming how overly swamped we would have been when you offer free with everything free house free car free health free medical you're going to get a lot of blood suckers coming to our country because they want all that free stuff I don't want to pay for it anymore go back to your own country unbelievable that they have that kind of energy when they need to put that energy in their own countries

This is ridiculous. So, who's going to pay the bills, mortgages after they're deported? Companies are going to lose a lot of money.

The schools restaurants and the stores are gonna shut down . The teachers will get fired cause no need too many teachers. \n\nAll items and the house of the price are going to go high because cannot find cheap labors.. it is terrible. You voted for Trump so you’re gonna pay.

It doesn't matter where you're from. If you're here illegally you need to go.

Why are they afraid if they’re here legally they can go to the restaurant and walk around and shop? I guess there is a lot of folks here illegally.

Why are they afraid if they’re here legally they can go to the restaurant and walk around and shop?

Come in the right way if you get deported your going to get an odamactict 20 year ban if you're chasing the American dream go home do the work and apply yourself

They already made it out of their country to Mexico what's wrong with staying there ? they think they can just come cry to us and we're going to let them in ??we don't know you

We're going to see a lot of incompetent people get into a panic now as they realize they will struggle to get work now they can't use their skin color or sexuality as their only skill and qualification.

I'm reading.\n Some of the comments. I know my opinion may not matter. But it may eh inside some people. I hope I guess the way that I would look at this is being in their shoes. It's completely different than ours. We are given opportunities from birth. Basically to common deer, the life that we would like to have well, at least most of us are. In the United States, people from degrading. Or degraded countries are not giving those opportunities. So I would imagine over the years. Any type of hope that they had for a great country is depleted. Solidarity in countries like that is not accepted it would be suppressed. It would be stormed on and smashed out by the you. See an opportunity to better your life and your children's life. And it's the fourth quarter and there's 2 seconds on the time clock. And you've only got one play to make. We all go for what the big hell, Mary and I think that's what these people are doing and God bless every one of them. That are good people. I feel sorry for this situation. I wish the world was a better place, but unfortunately it's not all we can do is pray for these individuals that hope that they find solace in what they're looking for. And we have to prefer ourselves also and pray that God takes care of our country.And theirs god bless everyone in this world

The Africans are the table and the Chinese if you cross the United States illegally you're going to be arrested and charged and process and deported right away within 48hrs period it's over it's over for you illegal immigrants

You're going to come here thinking we have golden roads and we don't. You'll end up living in gang infested neighborhoods, broke and now without the support of your family. Stay home. \nIt's not that great here.

They’re more fit for it than me. I was born a woman, still a woman, and I can promise you I wouldn’t set foot in the military bc I don’t trust the people running it. I don’t fully trust the govt. I appreciate ANYONE willing to be more brave than the rest of us in order to protect us. I think I’m going to thank them for their service & pray God is loving on them too. Bc contrary to what comments say- God loves them just the way they are.

They're gonna fuck it up for every brown skinned citizen of the US. Trump will give them the go ahead to racial profile and arrest legal residents. Mock my words.

Of course if any one of you has come into our country illegally you're going to get out now!!! I don't care what color you are or what country you came from, you don't belong here!!

No to be transparent if you are not a US citizen or have a criminal record or exceeded your visa or around anyone like that in your immigrant they’re going to deport you and it’s crazy

They're all going to be sent back

so you're just gonna run away. I bet where ever you go same thing is gonna happen there. how about staying and fighting back?

so let's pose a question to all those who seem to just hate the LGBTQIA+ community for whatever their reasons are....if someone who happens to be transgender saves your life, saves the life of one of their team members or perhaps leads an OP to a successful outcome, would you say that they were unqualified after the fact ? would you say that now as the regulations are being changed that they were never qualified to have performed those duties in the past ?? I've said this before, when you're downrange you don't give a damn if someone has a taco or a hotdog in their lunchbox, all that matters is that they've got your six and are willing to complete the directive as ordered. Every single one of you haters needs to realize that so many LGBTQIA+ service members have dedicated their efforts to keeping your asses safe in this country since the inception of the uniformed services were established. Should they not have done so ? Why does who they love, have sex with or how they dress actually matter to you as long as you're still able to go out and feed your fat ass an all American Cheeseburger under the watchful eye of the American Flag ?! And at the end of the day, all they ask is to be able to serve their country with dignity. It's disgusting that so many of y'all simply hate other folks this way and try to diminish the service of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Go ram your government you’re too scared and too sorry do what we did stay in your own country. Do some about them people where you live at if y’all can ram the border, y’all can get them together in your country. I don’t understand what’s the problem we got killed and everything else but we stood fast try it and see what happened. Maybe you can change some stuff in Mexico.

You really are not allowed to be coming into this country. Birthright is for slaves and their kids slavery and their kids that they left here in the United States. Understand what that mean it doesn’t say anything in the fourth amendment about immigrants go read the fourth amendment you’re not allowed to be here there is no birthright for you all. It’s about the people of slaves their children.

Transgenders qualification are not the issue, society is. I don't see Trump views are going to change any time soon. Why would you stay where you're not wanted? If the Military doesn't want you and your talents, find another career where you will be TRULY VALUED.

Just imagine the time and money that has gone into training all these service people. And, you're going to cut them loose. Shows just how juvenile Trump is. You would think he wouldn't care who's risking their lives as long as it's not him.

Bla bla bla! You're mad? So, go to Washington DC and the US government to stop creating chaos in others people countries so that they may stay in their home country ??‍♂️

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!!!

First week and we’re going back to the same thought we’ve learned as a country and these networks all they do is divide the country by gaslighting us

I think the trans issue has a lot of complications that really don't need to play out in the military. I accept the body God gave me and I can't imagine what people go through who can't. It's concerning though that while they're fighting their internal fights it may project on to others. Just because this one man didn't doesnt mean everyone is like him. Should be a case by case basis and not a blanket policy.

Kind of a stupid argument to say that we’re at low levels of recruitment and then think that this somehow is going to hinder recruitment levels when people like this person being interviewed make up 0.000001 one percent of the overall population

lol yeah, you’re out for sure now after going on CNN to complain about the president. Bye.

To think they used to lock people up for thinking they were God, JC or Napoleon. What's wrong with a man thinking he's a woman, or a kangaroo for that matter.\nAll it takes is a wig, some fake boobs and a little lipstick, and bingo. Wallace Berry is suddenly Marilyn Monroe.\nNow all you hafta do is re convince yourself after that wakeup call every time you go to the can.

CNN WOKE agenda media representative only. I have gay family members & the do not support “trans”! Go do transgender, but not in the military. Trans do NOT represent the majority we’re done with “special needs” people, taxpayers cannot afford this excess any longer! The End.

CNN news story video request: \nThe Department of Homeland Security widened its investigation into migrant children found cleaning slaughterhouses and is now working with the Justice Department to examine whether a human smuggling scheme brought migrant children to work in multiple slaughterhouses for multiple companies across multiple states, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the investigation. \n\nIt’s no secret that billions of individual animals will be killed this year to satisfy America’s dairy and flesh addictions. At the slaughterhouse, they’re often scalded to death or dismembered while they’re still conscious. Because slaughter lines move quickly and many workers are poorly trained, stunning animals with a captive-bolt gun often fails to render them unconscious. As one slaughterhouse worker charged with cutting off the legs of conscious cows explained to The Washington Post, “They die piece by piece.”\n\nWorkers often become sick or are injured because of the unsafe and unsanitary working conditions of these gruesome facilities. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) records show that about 17 “severe” accidents occur each month in U.S. slaughterhouses. Approximately two slaughterhouse workers have a limb cut off by slaughterhouse machinery each week. It’s not uncommon to hear of workers losing an eye, fracturing their fingers, or suffering from head trauma.\n\nOSHA indicates that U.S. slaughterhouse employees are 3 times more likely to sustain a serious injury than the average American worker. People who work in pork and beef plants are nearly 7 times more likely to develop repetitive strain injuries. According to news reports, two-thirds of workers on Upstate New York dairy farms have reportedly sustained at least one workplace injury, and many say they’re told to work through illnesses and injuries. An Oxfam America report reveals that chicken plant workers fear that they’ll be fired if they take “unscheduled” bathroom breaks, so many wear diapers.\n\nWe can all help stop the abuse and exploitation that occur in slaughterhouses simply by going plantbased and speaking out against all the cruelty and injustice of animal slave farming industries.

If the cross you have to bear is a gay one or a transgender one then you need to bear that cross. If you embrace the sin that you were born with then you're going to go to hell

Just go home, there’re already millions of illegal immigrants that will be deported

I’m from Vancouver bc and it upsets me that this site keeps saying oh we need skilled workers not labourers I’m a skilled worker born and bred in bc 10 years experience painter can’t get a job unless I get 10$ less per hour than 2014 and carpentry same thing. The employers want only Indian and Mexican workers because there cheap. This Friday I’m going homeless with my dog because I can’t find work or affordable housing. Government saying we need skilled workers is a scam they want cheap workers no sense of safety or Canadian culture. How did the government let this happen we’re fucked also how did wages not go up when cost of living doubled I don’t care about being able to buy a 1.5 million dollar house but the locals should be able to get by

Our founding fathers stood up and over threw the repressive British regime and founded a great country. These migrants should do the same, in their respective country. Go back. Unless you’re here legally, you are not welcome.

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

go home and fight to make your own country great again. that's what we're doing

Poland warned them they're going to use live bullets. They've targeted Poland. So maybe America needs to take a tougher stand now. This is a forceful invasion - i.e. war.

No. Go fix your own country. We’re trying to put ours back together right now.
