We're not going to blame the Colombian government when all these Tariffs destroy our economy. Donald Trump and the Republicans will take all the blame. Hopefully, we will be tired with all the chaos by the midterms and vote accordingly!!!

Trump is still trying to take over the world, one country at a time.

jusftified- if these illegals committed crime on U.S. soil and colombia does not take them back - than why should america bare the burden of this. Lets have a pissing contest colombia - ill bet my house that trump wins that one. Lets Make America Safe Again

America Is For America Citizens Our Children Thank God For President Trump His Family Administration God Bless Him America All Our Citizens Our Children Their Future Our Veterans Border Patrol Officers..???????????? MAGA 45-47??

Trump supported Venezuela and encouraged them to come. Dont forget he supporget a dictator in Venezuela. Dont blame Obama or Biden. The Maga never takes accountability that is why America will fail under Trump. Karma is coming. They are entitled becsuse Trump told them they were and his declining mental health makes him forget he did this.

Take all those supposedly men and fight their own cartel government. Trump BABY. We back

They are trying to get in before Trump takes office.

We cant even feed our own. House and give medical care to AMERICANS. I want to see trump start to prove himself. Get tid of them. Now take care of our own

What the fu!!!!!!!\nLook what Biden and harris has done to us..this is crazy. \nAmerican could not afford to take care of this many illegal immigrants..thank you President Trump..JD Vance V.p. ??????????????????

This is a long time ago under border czar Kamala Harris! Trump, & Tom Homan are already taking action to stop this invasion!

Trump asked that we seal our borders and do something about fentanyl. How did Canadian politicians respond! Like chickens with their heads cut off, throwing around our idea of tariffs. Trump was clear. I have no idea why they had to take it to this level in Canada.

This is fantastic. Well done Trump and ICE agents. Take note Pierre when it comes your time to fix the mess here.

I earned my permanent resident status back in 2001 and joined US ARMY during war in terror and served for 8 years. While serving, I was deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan in the middle of hot zones, dodging grim reaper's radar for many, many times. When I finally earned my US citizenship through military, I seamlessly transitioned into law enforcement career in New York for past 10 years, which I encountered with many illegal criminals with rap sheets- which some makes you think why they are still wondering in the street instead of locked up in the jail, having their freedom taken away. What is funny is that many of these illegal criminals have such an entitled mindset that they are deserve to be here in US without permit do whatever they want and enjoying these unbelievable benefits that these sanctuary city/state provides that we, us citizens don't even get- and we are paying for it with our hard earned money. I think I earned my citizenship with blood and sweat, same goes to many immigrant hopefuls that came to U.S with true American dream. It is time to take back our country and I 100% support with Trump's decision on this.

Well, Trump is getting ready to kick out the ones already here. We really don't have the means to take care of them. We have homeless people from fires in our own country. Didn't want to list all our problems. But please retreat and go hack home.

Trump is taking out the trash.

I'm so impressed how fast Trump is getting all this done. Brings a smile to my face. Can we all pray canada will do the same when Pierre takes over

Now all we need is spineless Starmer to take a leaf out of Trumps book, now he can see how it's done.

Thx trump for forcing the federal government to do something about the illegal immigration that’s taking jobs from Canadians

These people don't understand that President Trump don't play around. He will literally bring tanks and the Army down there. And these people are going to have to turn around and go back whether they want to or not, but what's going to happen is they're going to assault police officers they're going to assault army people and they're going to get shot and then you're going to have the media. Covering it like it's the Army's fault that they had to defend themselves. The media should be ashamed of themselves. The Democrats should be ashamed of themselves, telling these people they can come here and live for free when the Americans have already spoken and said they cannot. These government officials forget they work for us. We do not work for them, but they seem to think that they control everything. This is where we the American people need to take our country back. We have to stop letting democrats think that they can control everything that happens because if they keep thinking that they are untouchable, or that they can keep controlling everything. What do you think going to happen to this country? We are already in the worst times we have ever been in in the USA period but the Democrats just keep going and going and going by giving these people free handouts and then expecting us not to say no, we can't handle them more of them. They are trying to overrun us, because what's going to happen is they're going to keep trying to let them come in, they are doing this for a vote. Do you not understand that the Democrats lost an election in a landslot? They figured if they can allow 40 or 50 million more to come in that they can stay in power for the rest of their time on this Earth until Jesus returned. That's what their plan is Their plans not to help Americans. They're planning to keep these people coming in, giving them free handouts, because they need votes, why don't people understand what's going on? If you bring in a 100 million for the illegal immigrants, they will vote single-handedly every time for Democrats, which will keep them in power, which will keep us homeless, which will keep American citizens begging for food, but they will still be giving these people free handouts from the American taxpayer. Now, what's going to happen is if these people actually get jobs instead of under-the-table where they have to pay taxes, they will quit working. They will quit working. Then the american taxpayer will be without a job.Then the immigrants won't work, and then you'll have a society where nobody's working doing nothing because the governments took all their money

Are they taking Trump's and Vance's wives?

These immigrants arrived legally and were granted legal status. In Canada, individuals must live in the country for five years before they can apply for citizenship. So, why should they be deported? I could understand if they had entered illegally and bypassed the proper legal process, but that is not the case here. Why would Canada adopt policies similar to those of Trump in the U.S.?\n\n-------\n@derekpam7149\nMy point is straightforward: these individuals followed the legal process to enter Canada and were granted legal status. They have adhered to the rules, and deporting them after they’ve done everything correctly seems unjust. Comparing this to Trump-era policies in the U.S. does not align with the values Canada upholds regarding fairness and due process. I’m asking why Canada would take such an approach when these people have complied with the law. Could you clarify what part of this seems complex to you? Perhaps you need to revisit your studies and review elementary education, as this is taught in schools. Canada is a 'land of immigrants.' It's part of history, long before you were born.\n\nI have no issues with deporting individuals who entered Canada illegally. However, these rules should not apply to people who migrated to Canada legally, are working as doctors, nurses, engineers, and so on, and are simply waiting for their citizenship. Your message is clearly irrelevant and discriminatory.

I support Trump 100% \nStay in your countries and fight for your freedom. You can’t be running to another country just because your government is an a-hole. Fight your governments like the US did in the civil war and take your rights and freedoms back.

This is what WE voted for!! Its not just trump hes just taking action on what the american people want so you can turn on your best acting skills and use your softest voice but we dont feel bad for people who are taking our jobs ruining our economy and making us poor.

Trump had no right to take away these families who were waiting for their appointments to be abandoned. Yes, I do understand that Trump wants to protect us from criminals but these families are not criminals. They are here because they want to give their children a better life and education in the United States.

I'm already taking a SICK of Trump day! Be alot of sick days to come I guess ?

Mind your business Germany or your next. We voted for Trump. How about you give them tickets to Germany. Last i heard Germany has closed its border. Better yet take our woke too. They are welcomed. They are Americans. But for you! You are not Germany. Sorry for the rant people. These media type from other countries has no business. We are not European

We’ll that didn’t take long. Trump and Homan said that the media would rush to show immigrants crying, in an effort to sway public opinion.

Same people will cheer when Trump says hes taking Greenland .. where are those rights ??

All other countries are allowed borders and laws so what is this issue about? Furthermore the USA was paying for other countries borders. This is not about Trump this is the will of the people! My ancestors came legally, my wife came legally and it was very hard, took years and cost money! Do it legally!\n\nI spent the first 4 years of my relationship with my wife in separate countries. We saw eachother twice a year, and video calls each night. The thing is i understand because laws are in place. Now we have gangs taking over apartment complexs, who knows how many terrorists, and criminals. Do you know how disrespectful Biden policies are to people who who did things properly and legally are?

Always misguiding people. This channel is not informing the truth. Biden regime invited all these poor people to come to the USA illegally. And you know human nature. You give them an inch and they take a mile. Now we got this huge crisis. All Trump is doing is applying the law. What's wrong with that???

I agree with President Trump. If you want to come here, do it legally. I am tired of our tax money supporting illegal people and not taking the money to help the thousands of our citizens in need of help.

FAKE NEWS ??!! It’s no wonder cnn & many other liberals fake news channels are failing !! She needs to take her a$$ over there & see for herself as I did , it is or shall I say it WAS a catastrophe now that TRUMP is BACK ! ???? Latinos 4TRUMP ??

Mexico’s Economic Apocalypse: My Personal Analysis\n\nThe imposition of a 25% tariff on all Mexican imports by the United States would be nothing short of an economic death sentence for Mexico. As someone deeply concerned about the integrity of U.S. borders, sovereignty, and the well-being of American citizens, I believe this tariff is both justified and necessary. Mexico has repeatedly ignored its responsibilities as a neighbor, and it is time for accountability. Let’s examine the devastating impact this tariff would have on Mexico in brutal, undeniable detail.\n\n\n---\n\nEconomic Collapse: A Nation on Its Knees\n\nMexico’s economy relies heavily on exports, with over 80% of its exports destined for the United States. A 25% tariff would obliterate Mexico’s competitive edge, pricing its goods out of the U.S. market. The result? A $100 billion annual loss in trade revenue—a wound so deep it would cripple the nation’s economy beyond repair.\n\nGDP Freefall: With exports constituting 28% of Mexico’s GDP, the tariff would slash growth rates and plunge Mexico into a severe recession. Entire industries would collapse under the weight of unsold goods and lost revenue streams.\n\nMassive Manufacturing Shutdowns: Mexico’s lifeblood industries—automotive, electronics, and steel—would face annihilation. Plants dependent on U.S. buyers would grind to a halt, leaving millions unemployed.\n\n\n\n---\n\nSocial and Humanitarian Crisis: A Nation in Chaos\n\nThe economic fallout wouldn’t just affect industries—it would decimate millions of lives:\n\nUnemployment Epidemic: With factories shuttered and exports decimated, unemployment would skyrocket, leaving millions of families destitute. Entire regions reliant on U.S. trade would become economic wastelands.\n\nHuman Desperation: Widespread poverty would fuel desperation, leading to a surge in crime, social unrest, and violence. Mexico’s already fragile social fabric would unravel, plunging the nation into chaos.\n\nMass Emigration: Unable to survive in their homeland, millions of Mexicans would flee to the United States, creating an unprecedented border crisis—ironically the very issue the tariff seeks to address.\n\n\n\n---\n\nFinancial Ruin: Mexico’s Peso in Freefall\n\nThe peso would face catastrophic devaluation, losing value faster than at any point in modern history. This would create:\n\nHyperinflation: Everyday goods would become unaffordable for the average citizen. The price of imported essentials—like medicine and machinery—would skyrocket.\n\nInvestor Exodus: Foreign investors, seeing no future for Mexico’s economy, would abandon the country. Capital flight would cause Mexico’s stock market to crash, sending shockwaves through the financial system.\n\n\n\n---\n\nThe Root Cause: Mexico’s Negligence\n\nMexico has brought this apocalypse upon itself through years of neglect and willful inaction:\n\nIllegal Immigration: Mexico has consistently allowed massive waves of illegal immigrants to flow across its northern border, destabilizing U.S. communities and eroding American sovereignty.\n\nDrug Trafficking: The unchecked trafficking of fentanyl and other deadly drugs through Mexican cartels has killed tens of thousands of Americans annually. Mexico has done little to combat this epidemic, allowing cartels to thrive.\n\nBroken Promises: Despite agreements and warnings, Mexico has failed to step up as a responsible partner. Words without action are meaningless, and the time for talk is over.\n\n\n\n---\n\nWhy Trump’s 25% Tariff is Justified\n\nPresident Trump’s 25% tariff isn’t just an economic tool—it’s a weapon of justice aimed at holding Mexico accountable for its negligence. Here’s why this move is essential:\n\n1. Securing U.S. Borders: Mexico’s failure to stop illegal immigration has forced the United States to act decisively. This tariff will compel Mexico to finally enforce its borders and prevent illegal crossings.\n\n\n2. Protecting American Lives: The flow of drugs like fentanyl must stop. By crippling Mexico’s economy, the tariff weakens the cartels that profit from this deadly trade.\n\n\n3. Economic Leverage: The U.S. is Mexico’s largest trading partner. Without access to the American market, Mexico’s economy collapses. This leverage ensures Mexico has no choice but to comply with U.S. demands.\n\n\n\n\n---\n\nA Brutal but Necessary Move\n\nYes, this tariff would cause unimaginable suffering in Mexico, but that suffering is a direct result of its government’s failures. President Trump is not to blame—Mexico is. By ignoring its responsibilities, Mexico has forced America to take a stand. The economic apocalypse that follows is the price Mexico must pay for its negligence.\n\nThis is not just about punishing Mexico—it’s about protecting the United States. It’s about securing our borders, saving American lives, and ensuring that the U.S. economy is not undermined by a neighbor that refuses to act responsibly. In the end, the 25% tariff is a painful but unavoidable reckoning for a nation that has long shirked its duties. The survival of Mexico’s economy depends entirely on its willingness to change course—and fast.

UNCLE SAM NEEDS YOU!\nrecruit not deport silly! new Americans' must be in enlisted and fight for American citizen ship and the right to buy American property! \n\nlearning American values and defending American people!\nRemember you left your home and cutler to better your self and your family.\nadapt and stop trying to change America! only American flag on American soil any other flag is an act of war!\ntry to take American soil is the same as trump trying to make Canada the 51 state we are all ready to fight for our country just ask the Ukraine citizens.\nstop fighting for currency fight hunger at home!\n bitcoin is funding the war against uncle Sam! monopoly money just print more no war!

This is all the fault of Biden,Harris and all those sanctuary cities who gave these illegals free room and board in hotels and motels while Americans are living in tents on the sidewalk.Democrats only care about destroying our country and turn it into another Venezuela.I can't wait till Trump takes over.

Good move south and take that idiot Trudeau with you! Wait, Americans don't want Trudeau either, especially President Trump!!!!

Canadians better watch out, because we got about 40 million illegals, many of which will try to escape to Canada when our great President Trump takes office..

Every country has immigration law. No one is above the law or below the law. What is wrong with temporary stay and student visa has to go home? Go back to India if you are India citizens. Canadian citizens ca not take the weight of immigrants anymore. Go to US as you said US is welcoming. I believe that Trump is not welcoming anymore people either.

We do not need illegal migrants, temporary foreign workers like reported in Newfoundland saying immigrants are leaving Newfoundland well good we dont need them this Country like other countries around the world are flooded with immigrants \nWe should be really encouraging born and raised Newfoundlanders outside Newfoundland to come back home and preserve our culture and heritage we are an island and it's very important we embrace that rather then encouraging illegal migrants, temporary foreign workers, into the island,what I don't understand is how come we don't encourage people born and raised Christians from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, New Zealand, wouldn't that make more sense and again preserve our culture and heritage, and I would challenge anyone on that and it's only a matter of time our following will get bigger and more Newfoundlanders will agree ,pkus with Trump in power and soon to be Poliveier we should take a stand snd KEEP NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR STRONG!! Let the immigrants go abd think more about Newfoundlanders that are wanting to go back home and work take the miney the Liberal government gives to the immigrants and put it back in the the ecoyto create more jobs and housing, KEEP NEWFOUNDLAND &: LABRADOR STRONG \nGOD GAURD THEE NEWFOUNDLAND!!

Im glad that he mentioned that Indians and Pakistanis are a problem and Trump will take care of them

The question is why did Canada have to wait for Trump's tariff threat to take on the border issue seriously? Does it mean had Kamala had won then the Canada's border and immigration law or enforcement would had remained relatively lax for many years to come?

Trump is helping solve CANADIAN problems and BEFORE he even takes power, officially. That is incredible. \n\n\nNow we just have to pray that he doesn’t actually increase those tariffs, and it is very likely that he will. Trump has been very consistent over the years about wanting higher tariffs with all of his trading partners. Getting control over our borders and preventing terrorists from entering the country will help reduce them but not all the way I don’t think. \n\nWe’ll see if that prediction is correct.

Trump must take Mexico not Canada

We're not worried about trump, he's not taking anything from Canada but hurt feelings

Canadians who hate Trump should wake up. He's forcing our government to what should of been Trudeaus job. So sad it takes an American President to do what should be the job of a Canadian Premier

It took Trump to make our useless government take action! About time!

I’ve held my tongue on this long enough, but the writing’s on the wall — Canada is cooked.\n\nOur finance minister calls it a “vibecession”, as if we’re imagining the economy sputtering. But here’s the reality: GDP growth at 0.1%, per capita GDP down 0.5%, and youth unemployment at 13.5%.\n\nThere’s the recent bait-and-switch $250 stimulus cheque — an ill-disguised vote buying grift. It was scrapped when the government realized it would add $4.6 billion to an already projected $60 billion deficit. \n\nThrow in a two-month sales tax holiday announced without thinking about the logistics, leaving businesses scrambling. Some aren’t even participating because it’s not worth the headache.\n\nHousing starts are at a 10-year low, the housing accelerator fund has delivered zero new homes, housing prices have left wage growth in the dust, and immigration has blown past what our infrastructure can handle. \n\nMeanwhile, the CBSA isn’t bothering to track expired international student visas. After all, someone has to keep the for-profit diploma mills thriving and the service industry fully staffed.\n\nCanada Post is falling apart under strikes, crippling small businesses, and 47% of job growth in the last five years has come from the public sector while our capital markets and innovation stagnate. \n\nThe $CAD is currently plummeting against the $USD, as the Bank of Canada scrambles to firefight the government’s incompetence with two jumbo 0.5% interest rate cuts.\n\nAnd let’s not ignore the trade war brewing with our historical ally, the U.S.. Trump has made it clear he’ll punish our abysmal border policies, which have allowed fentanyl to flood into America unchecked, with a 25% tariff on Canadian exports.\n\nIf you’re trying to get ahead — building jobs, working for yourself, pooling capital to invest, why bother?— the proposed 66% capital gains inclusion rate over $250,000 punishes you for taking risks and succeeding.\n\nAsk yourself: are you happy with the state of Canada right now? Honestly. Because it doesn’t feel like the same country I grew up in, went to school in, worked in, served in, and built a business in.\n\nI’m done. For once in my life, I don’t want to be Canadian anymore.

In no other country in the world can you be an illegal and have a child that is a citizen of that country. Only here, people are taking advantage of it. Islamic men can have up to four wives at a time and have 25 children before you blink twice. They will take over our country if we don't stop this. We have a cowardice government that wants to be PC. Thank God Trump has some courage.
