How are trans people serving in the the US? Exceptions are being made that’s how. It’s a hard pill to swallow for someone who lost their career because I was non deployable to see folks get an exception to that. A lot of trans folks are non-deployable and are still active.

Good riddance dude Should have never been put in that position period !! Which a guy can’t have btw… a period. And all you women , after all this hard work about a man taking control over you, well you let us do it again by pretending to be one of you lol.

Come on let's go to this racist horrible country who hates us. So we can start from the bottom and work hard for everything. \n\nNot all of those statements can be true at the same time.

Not right. They are using violence to get into US

There are a lot of decent countries that speak the same language and have very similar cultures between Venezuela and the US. It would make starting your life over so much easier so that really begs the question why are they making that dangerous journey to the US? Seems really odd to me. Almost like there's something else going on.

file this under f**k around and find out. before its all said and done these fools are going to force the average US citizen to have to turn in people in their community just to do what they need to know by now.. coming in through the back door is NEVER going to go your way.

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

Attention all illegals trying to get into the US. \nGOOD NEWS = The Trump Government is now offering you free plane rides home to visit your families. All paid for by American tax payers. \nThen you can come back again and again, with more free rides home each time you get caught . \nNow you have even MORE of an incentive to come to America illegally. \nYes, American Trump supporters are that stupid!!!

All military age males.. absolutely terrifying no countries allow this blatant invasion of their borders..THANK YOU GOD AND PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP FOR PROTECTING US

A big point being missed here. These are not Mexicans. They are from Venezuela. I know to MAGA they are all the same, brown people. But Mexico is having to support a border that we were told was open. Extra personnel and extra expense because they happen to border the US. What thanks do they get? Orange face telling them to pay their share and insulting them. Don't forget he promised to make them pay for the wall last time. How well did that go for him?

Go back and fix your own country. You are not needed here in the US. Let’s help our fellow Americans that truly need the help. Amen and Amen!

Why what happened to Venezuela? The leaders they voted for? \nTheir GOVERNment?\nIs it the responsibility of the US to GOVERN them even through the illegal entrance?\nIs it right for a nation to compromise its Law and Safety of and for its own people?\nCan the Human Rights advocates protect the victim nation in cases of chaos brought about by illegal migration?

I could not love anymore what I am seeing. Ice is doing one hell of a job. Just think if Brain Dead Biden were still in office we would have all these people as well in this country. Happy to see you cry go home or find another place the US is closed.

Tell us the truth about our past e.t. n.h.i... call them wat u will. ANGEL OR DEMON

36 trillion in debt!\n330 million people in the U.S WE DON'T NEED ANY MORE IMMIGRANTS!\nVENEZUELANS TURNED OUT TO BE THE MOST HORRIBLE CRIMINALS THAT TRUMP WARNED US ABOUT

A giant step forward on securing US borders and keeping American citizens safe! We are so grateful!! ?

Allow US civilians to deal with these animals....

The amount of energy expended to gain illegal entry into the US would be better used to change their country of origin.

Should be 2 Million. Remove them and all their derka derka BS. And give Canada back to the Majority Judeo=Christian Canadians of European descent that created it. No more freebee's to shithole dumps like India who bring NOTHING Canada needs but pick us clean. Get them out!

Criminals coming to live on welfare, shoplifting and drug dealing. If you have so much energy, us it to fix your home country!

Its hard to see the little kids on their shoulders ? US gotta have a system this is crazy

Illegal ASssylem seeckers, NOT MIGRANTS!! I am a migrant, i did my phd. and worked for 3 years and am still waiting on my documents! DO NOT mix us with Illegals!

Really give me my papers I'll go home since you where around same time frame too in new york I wrote to you before now someone has identity theft us now and starting then too

Looks like the US may have to start using force

This is just down right ridiculous! The US is now looking like a bully

I think Indian govt's stance is best in this case.\n'Give us a list of our people you want to deport, give us proofs why you think they are illegals, and we will arrange for the planes ourselves, no questions asked. You won't even have to bother about transporting them, just bring them to the air port, we will fly them back.'.\n\n\nAnyways Indian govt had been warning Canada about this migration for past 8 years. Literally imploring them to not take these guys in. They aren't running away from persecution, they are running away from prosecution. But sadly Canada became a safe haven for criminals in India to run and hide into. Now don't blame India or Indians for it. We warned you, we had a spat with you. You lectured us how free and democratic you are and how your doors are open to all. NOW SUFFER.\n\nFor the Americans.....i don't feel a thing. They are mostly racists bunch (liberals more than conservatives, but yeah 99 percent of them are pure vile racists). I enjoy watching their country undergoing a very slow implosion right Infront of our very eyes. Trump is a good and capable leader. But what can he really do? His main voter base (which actually did not matter in the elections, it was the minority votes which tilted the scales) is simply uneducated, uninformed, racists. I don't know if they are inherently racist or that racism is born out of ignorance to begin with. But it is what it is. And the othtrr side is loony. ?. You have hate filled racists on one side and crazies on another. That country is destined to be doomed. I hardly find any centrist sane individual who can actually get over the superficial racial or identity stuff and actually talk policies in depth. Both sides are like... For us or against us. What can Trump even do with such population base. They have to import people to keep their quality on top... Else they are done for within next 200 - 250 years.

Columbia wont loose from this ! US people will !

Good Lord , can Trump and Vance not send two planes from A to B without causing a crisis and putting US Airforce crews in danger , no mind US Airforce assets and the thousands upon thousands of dollars down the drain plug! Less high life and more in the situation room overseeing their regime!

There is a reason why tariffs are called voodoo economics. It doesn't work!!!!! And the US sinks deep into a great depression because of a demented leader.

Them staying in Mexico is dangerous but the only way to get here is through Mexico. The whole thing is sad but the US is so over populated for this to continue happening so quickly the Biden administration is fully responsible for all this

You know what’s gonna happen? US applies tariffs on literally the whole world and the whole world doesn’t feel a thing except American citizens feeling the pinch and then Donald Trump takes credit for reducing the country’s debt from making their citizens poorer.

Just the Bully in Chief, the countries of the world increasingly view the US as a hostile threat to freedom and democracy....

Columbia will tariff US goods and move to closer relations with China. Who does that make great, the US or China?

Does CNN understand the vast majority of migrants dont have a choice but to flee. Ofcourse they could flee elsewhere. But they're happy to come to America and work like slaves for us so we can have cheap stuff....

I understand wanting your people to have dignity, but I’m not sure if the Columbian presidential plane is the best way, the best way to provide dignity for your people is to create a country where they don’t have to leave, where there is opportunity, where there is safety and true equality, when we leave our home countries it’s because our leaders have failed us: I hope this is resolved peacefully.

This people dont follow rules ask for food they dont like what we give thwm ,rhey scream push scream ,piss all over ,trash all ober just because you proness thwm 5star hotels stamps in Us dollars of course thosands came all over

To do the US’s bidding?…I’m sorry that guy is a joke. No wonder I can’t watch CNN more than a few minutes. \n\nTaking back your illegal immigrants isn’t doing Us a favor.

If we’re expected to care for another nations citizens, then it is certainly fair for us to tax them

Where's the pepper spray, smoke grandees, flash bombs, rubber bullets.. no country in the world lets us just walk in on based on your sense of entitlement. Americans can't feed themselves right now, go make your own countries great again ffs.

You guys are incorrect on what happens when the US raises tariffs on certain items from Colombia. Do you think American importers will continue to import highly tariffed commodities like bananas and coffee?! No they find other countries and other sources because consumers won’t pay 50% more on coffee and bananas. Guess what what Russia and North Korea are doing? ISOLATED to death on their economy. Russia isn’t doing well unlike what others may be thinking. They’re only doing barely enough because of their oil and coals, yet their oils aren’t traded high enough and look at North Korea it’s segregated. I’ve been to North Korea actually by accident and they live like 100 years ago, in deluded made up world far from reality. Look at Cuba. They are sanctioned by the U.S. and the rest of the developed countries. Who is going to lose by being highly tariffed?? Columbia. Not the U.S. You guys need one on one basic education on trading commodities.

And the Columbian president quickly folded like a chair and agreed to take them back. This is what happens when the US elect an actual strong leader.

In CNN's defense, there aren't many news media groups who can keep up with the accomplishments of President Donald Trump. Trump has held more press conferences and answered more press questions in one week than Biden in the last 4 years. Trump has been to North Carolina, which still doesn't have power, water, sewer, or gas lines restored with no federal aid and California working successfully with Democrat leaders there. You can hate his policies and him and you probably hate yourself too, but he's the most accomplished hard working POTUS in US history.

The two flights to Mexico that got turned away carried less than 100 migrants cost US taxpayers $900,000! CNN might want to mention that. Drumpf used expensive military jets because he just couldn't wait for CBP jets (because he wanted a photo shoot!). He should have to pay for the extra cost out of his pocket, not ours. What will it cost to take migrants back to China? Tax cuts for the billionaire broligarchs cost US money. Using C-130 aircraft is overkill and affects military readiness. Threatening tariffs on our allies is going to spark trade wars. He's a moron.

Sad for those truly suffering but this is not the way. Forcing their way is not helpful because then they are in the US without papers, working cash, doing nothing to support the country.

When he said OK we will remove all US money and the Cartels will be back in charge. Immediate yes sir.

Mexico, Canada, Columbia come and join brics with us

He is pissing off the world one country at a time and people are going to stop travelling to the US and buying goods made in the US.\n No one likes a bully and he is managing to do more damage to the US and their reputation. Americans will be treated like crap in Europe, Canada, Greenland and Panama and the list continues to grow. The world population is going to stand together against this mentally ill wanna be dictator. People are not going to put up with his crap.

This is why BRICS is so appealing to the whole world. These tariff will not end up doing the US well long term. Ppl don’t like bullys.

All countries will move to BRICS and devalue the US dollar if this continues.
