White people don't want to work hard, \nIndians are hard workers,\nInstead of getting jealous on them quit your laziness go work hard make more money get your own house.

Time for those people go home. Man killing a college student to become a nurse. I want them go home and work out country.

America is not worth all that trouble. Go home and work on your country.

Ha I got one for you a company has 4 East Indian non related immigrant employees about 2 years now and suddenly they all leave to go back to India but as a vacation for 8 weeks. Sounds crazy they are truck drivers …. Wait is this another catch 22 and they know the flaws in the system and will be back on another work visa? Yup…oh Canada your screwed

Every Spanish person I’ve ever met is an intelligent, hard working, decent person. I don’t understand why they can’t create awesome countries south of the border. Is is just the cartels or their governments? It seems like closing the border will cause the cartels to go broke and then people can get their country back.

I was working with a married couple from Australia, they came here to the USA legally but they were itching to go back to Australia. They hated it here in the USA

My husband is from Turkey we've been going through the Immigration process for years it's not easy but we're doing it. I see my husband get up and work hard everyday. He's never gotten a handout so to see this is frustrating to the both of us!!!!!

Are you going to report it worked

What makes them think they are entitled to be here? Or entitled to what we've worked hard for? Or that they should just go to the front of the line? Or to bankrupt our country by handing out free everything?\nGo home before you are caught. Come back legally. LEARN ENGLISH!

With Elon and Trump now working with Qardun is going to absolutely blow up

These are human beings. Mostly hard-working human beings. Humans that would cherish a life in this country so much, they will do nothing wrong to protect that opportunity. There are plenty of people we shouldn’t be deporting. Unfortunately, most our US citizens. Thugs sucking away American taxpayerseither in prison or on welfare staying home eating buckets of chicken while collecting a check because they don’t want to go to work.

Trump needs to offer a tip line that pays people for reporting illegals and the businesses and landlords that hire and house them. the awards can be paid for by the fines the state can charge businesses and landlords that willing hire and house illegal immigrants.\nFine businesses and landlords $5000 per illegal found living or working on their property. And pay the tipster $500 per tip that leads to an ice arrest. The rest of the money can go towards from the fines can be used for deportation and funding ice and border patrol.

This is the United States problem why!? And these shitty ass country's are sending there worst people over here! These people got the idea in there head from the Biden administration that they can just come over here and we'll take care of them and they won't have to work, pay taxes, or do anything! There getting there wake up call. Go back to t he country your from. Were they lived there entire life! I honestly dont get what the problem is! These Lib's are either nuts or just absolutely hate our country! Or maybe both!

NO. Go back home\n Go home. Americans will no longer allow these illegals to drain our taxes that takes away from the ones who have suffered worked, done without all our lives. F these criminals! GO HOME, MAKE your Home Great. Stop stealing from our country. After all your leader will protect their citizens. \nMAGA??????????

Guys there aren’t many countries where you can just walk right in with no papers, passport, ID, work visa or something of the sort. America just let this go on for too long so it’s going to be hard now to change the tide. Should’ve happened forever ago and we wouldn’t have to turn so many desperate families away like this. It’s definitely sad to watch it go down though.

So the one trick pony pulled out his one trick. Going to work less and less each time, but the stupid don't realize that.

Its chaos!!!!...please just do the paper work..dont start off as a criminal...because you will be judged on that...then every time you look around... these blue line gang members are going to harrass you

This is why Trump won. These people are truly mental. Why doesn't CNN do an interview live with a group of actual boarder agents on the frontline to allow them to express what they see everyday oh and ask them how many times the Biden administration made them stand down as they watched thousands enter illegally. I want that interview! Oh not to mention a momth ago biden administration sold huge piles of steel for literally pennies before Trump. Democrats claim to work for us and if that's true why are they going against these policies and trying to fight everything. The Democrats only like you if you vote for them. The American people have spoken Democrats! Listen and do your job.

I work in a produce department. Get ready for grocery prices to go up because a crybaby is our president. Fear led stupidity to vote against their own interests. Americans are so very stupid in general.

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

Go back to wherever you're from and work to improve your country.

NiCE GOING MAGA….YOUR PRESIDENT JUST GOT SLAPPED IN THE FACE BY COLUMBIA , AND WE ARE GOING TO PAY FOR TARIFFS….AINT THAT WHAT YOU WANTED….. MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN….MAGA CAN PICK BANANAS AND CHERRIES….SO GET TO WORK …..YOUR ANCESTORS WILL BE PROUD…..?

I can’t even retire I have to keep working because these people get more than me. I barely making my rent. \nLet’s go Trump we have the Bull ? with the Balls back , hopefully you can do something about Newscum

Lol, what an idiot.....this man has no brain power.....he will cause a recession in America by mid year.....a lot of prices will go higher!!!! People will be fired... people will protest, which will disrupt a normal work schedule!!!! This summer is going to be very problematic!!!

You work with other countries & they work with you. Act like you're a mob boss threatening allies & kissing enemies asses & the rest of the world is going to get it's back up & fight back. Columbia just wasn't playing the game of the strongman look Trump was trying by sending a military plane instead of a passenger plane.

About time cut the crap work. Americans need to get on same page you want more great create more value you don't create for others to make lives better than no pay \n\nWe are community. Hard times shoot we have all been there thinking someone thinking besides yourself is responsible is a lie. You enter this earth with curses or bless from your parents and generations so what you going to do sin more and curse your family more or not pass the buck and obey Jesus..\n\n\nJesus said to serve and sluggers aka people who don't serve others don't deserve to eat. What he's trying to tell when he's saying work to serve others like you do him is people have all you ever wanted so learn how to be of value and service. America you can do so will it be easy no but we need to stop corruptness.\n\nI paid for my familys curses so my children don't have and what does the wicked tell me it's not fair when you work three jobs to come up and constant study of improvement of personal value I'm so so so sick of liars trying to to blame people of there conditions instead of turning to the king who will work all for good stop having faith in the wicked man god sent the sinless to lead you to right truthful stop believing convient lies from atheist.\n\nHeck even Rome couldn't stop Jesus words so instead try to control it with claiming there Christian don't make there sol victorious worship and Mary worship or sun/moon worship Rome was made from as truth. Please get the Bible and check for yourself study both sides prove Jesus isn't real.\n\nOnce you learn Jesus is here to lead u out of your self-destructiveness and knowing your sin curses your children this stuff will stop. \n\nYou can claim whatever but I can't disagree if Jesus didn't come our life would be 100x worse everywhere as America was built strongly after his words \n.

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

All the crackheads working for CNN are gonna need to go to rehab if the coke dries up

Now coffee is going up in price. ??\nTrump still has no idea how tariffs work. He’s punishing Americans because he can’t get his way with other countries.

so he's going to slap tariffs on all countries that don't bend to him. lets see how that works out. all countries will dump USA goods for china and other countries. ??

Americans will be going on a forced diet , food /groceries prices about to skyrocket . Between the large % of field workers afraid of I.C.E. so not going to work ,produce is rotting , so shortages will be huge and then tariffs starting Feb 1st . Thanx MAGA for putting this dangerous buffoon and dictator wannabe in The Oval Office . Your chosen ignorance affects ALL Americans who now must pay the consequences of your hatred and stupidity . Stop chanting “ We won Libs, get over it .”

We the consumers will pay that tariff. I'm still waiting for the grocery prices to go down on day 1. How does it work for you?

Trump thinks youcan just go in and land a plane he dosentknow how that works

You know what's funny is, when Biden was in office, the economy was getting better, gas prices were finally going down and unemployment was at its all time lowest in US history. Now Trump is gonna get rid of all these immigrants that do the hard dirty work like, picking fruit, avocados and chile and roofing and construction So now watch I bet you anything businesses will go out of business and the economy will get bad again. I hope im wrong

It is understandable why US import illegal immigrants back to their country. But all immigrants are not criminals and they trying escape poverty and other local issues. They should be treated with dignity. Trump is crazy he is going to tax more from US citizens for something Columbians did , it may not work at all.

Good ,go back and work your life otherwise apply illegally.

Have you ever stop and think about the the dictatorship that is in the USA .most people don't even ? The system here we vote but do our vote counts the only vote that counts is the electerol vote and who tells the electerol vote how to to vote not the people the corporations the elites the 1% remember when bush run against gore in the 90s gore won the popular vote but bush won the electoral vote at the end the day Republicans and Democrats serve the 1% only and no one cares for the poor and middle class we need to vote more independent how is socialism bad because they care for the poor and middle class we need to stop listening to false propaganda they feed us that socialism don't work because it does... did you know that corporations pay taxes in Mexico and the new socialist partie in Mexico don't do bail outs for banks and corporations when the USA gov has come to you and say you are going to loose your house and your car don't worry we pay it for you Never but the USA gov do it all the time with corporations and banks with our tax payer money how is that right!!

This guy needs to be impeached for the 3rd time immediately. He's going to ruin this economy that we worked so hard on after his first time.

It worked so that's nice. Colombia doesn't even like to let the illegals go back to their country. ?

Sounds like Trump's border policy is working quite well!!! They are going back before they even get here.. That's what I am talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOO TRUMP!!! you are the F88king man!!

I was going to say if the tariffs didn’t work there are still parachutes.

Imagine you have your family, including small kids and older parents in your home and had one extra room for rent, you put ads out in the paper and interview some people for the spot, but while you are doing that, someone walked in your door and put all their things in your the room and then expected you to totally be cool with it. Anyone in their right mind, would be frustrated, even if that person was really nice and and said they'd pay rent. Any sane person would say, leave, go through the interviews, background checks, and then we'll see if it works out. It's not that you don't want to help them, but you have an order and a procedure that is in place for many reasons. \n\nImmigration is the same. It's not that the administration is anti-immigrant. We welcome ANYONE to come, you just need to come through the approved channels.

Stupid mega voted for incompetent clown ? \nNo immigrant do hard labor work pick up crops at the farms, now the price everything going up at supermarket.

For these slow people, let me explain how this works: tariffs work as a tax on poor people. First time in the White House, Trump put a 25% tariff on China goods. Dollar Tree, which imports from china usually to sell everything for a dollar had to pay 25 cents on a dollar in taxes to collect the goods from the ports. So it passed that tax to the prices. So went from everything $1 to everything $1.25. a 25% percent inflation. Then China stopped buying soybeans from USA. Farmers went broke and Trump have to give them 29 billion in handouts so they won’t go broke. Genius?

If that does not work, targeting remittances would be the coup de grâce. President Petro needs the foreign exchange to keep his economy going especially since he is facing a new insurgency. The business community in Columbia is very sophisticated and there will be tremendous pressure on Petro to relent.

Let’s go !!! Sir let’s go that’s a president At work for your ass

Idiots are idiots and Trump is #1 you are getting an idea of how bad things are going to get under Orange man but you voted for it now enjoy your 20 dólar late at starbucks and your ten dóllar eggs and all you who get food stamps better Find work i heard farmers want pickers

So if it carries on like this, Donald Chaos is going to be applying trade tariffs against many of his neighbors for not taking back their migrants that the US needs to keep their domestic economy afloat? So it'll be costing the US at least an equivalent cost increase to continue buying goods from Columbia (and other countries as yet unknown to add to the list) until the US has no sources left to switch to that are un-tariffed and more economic.\nThese countries will just sell their goods elsewhere if the US doesn't buy them, so the American consumer loses out and pays to finance this fiasco in the making = US price inflation. \nSo falling out with your neighbors is how to make America great again is it?\nWhat sort of successful businessman works like this and succeeds? Donald Chaos, the Art of The Fail.

for all of you in the comments trying to bash Trump talking about how this was a bad move and going to drive up prices, make enemies, etc. how do you feel now that the Colombian president has folded and is sending his presidential plane to pick them up? The threat of tariffs worked didn't it? Maybe it's time you admit to yourself you've been lied to and Trump knows what he's doing and has our country's best interest at heart.
