Honestly everyone is to blame. Canada and Mexico have both been riding the American gravy train for decades and never got slapped by any of the former presidents. And now that a president who puts the US first comes along everyone acts like America and our president is in the wrong. Just because something wrong was allowed to happen for so long that doesn't mean it was right. So two things these tariffs will do to Canada. One your economy isn't exactly stellar right now. Two Trump just has to pump up the pressure further and Canada will fold. It's that simple. As for Mexico they are squarely attached to America's teet. They need us WAY more than we need them. They will fold. And during negotiations we will make them ok US military operations on the Cartels. All people see is the word tariffs and don't think about the strategy behind them. Tariffs are a tool to apply pressure and gain leverage. Canada and Mexico would do the same if they could. So lets stop with the pearl clutching.

Why do these people think we have a open door to our country ?? This is ridiculous. And I dont want to hear from your liberal fucktards about “ everyone in America is an immigrant”. No , I’m not. I was born here. I didn’t come from somewhere else, neither did millions of others. You want to come that’s great, do the paperwork , get legal and pay the taxes. It’s really that simple.

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

No MAGA should ever be allowed in any military position, especially a pilot, as you need Critical Thinking Skills. It doesn’t matter if you have breasts or a penis, your chopper/ jet can take out someone as you will have passed the exact same evaluation tests as everyone else- if your good enough, your in.

Dear Mr. Donald J. Trump, \n\nThe Egyptian people, in all their diversity, reject your crazy ideas that you put forward recklessly without awareness of their catastrophic impact about the displacement of the Palestinian people off their land. If you think that the Egyptian people can be led behind your unwise lead like those of the Gulf states, then you are mistaken and should reconsider your calculations. We are a people of principle and belief, ready to defend our borders and our homeland to the last of us.\n\nHere's the news; by your strange ideas, you were able to unite the Egyptian people altogether behind their leadership in rejecting the displacement plan of the Palestinian people – our brothers – out of their land. \n\nIn this same context, we would like to convey to you a counter proposal: It is rather the displacement of the Israelis to the United Sates of America; you have huge, underutilized spaces amongst the vast stretches of land of the US, and the Israelis can be very useful to you in all aspects. \n\nWe promise you, if you do this, everyone will be more than happy, and the US economy won’t have to continue its bleeding as it won’t have to continue supporting and arming Israel with all these huge amount of money through the unfortunate American taxpayers’ money anymore.\n\nThink it over, dear Trump.

They propaganda that democrats sent to Latin America come to the USA, inviting everyone, some of them had been brought in private flights provided by the democrats. Of course, they think they deserve to be here.\nI am learning all this news thanks to this media.

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

Wait a minute, these people have traveled all the way from Venasualea? Yet they have Cell Phones that are working? They have their nails and hair done? They are all wearing new clothes? I have seen people here in America living on the streets that are not as clean as they are to have traveled hundreds of miles through the Central America Countries and are still looking as fresh as the morning Sun! Are you kidding me or do you think that everyone who watches YouTube is an Idiot!

Liberalism has permiated the world, and it is obvious the radicals like you, who should stick to covering your own country, are still having a hissy fit. Good! The days of the United States caving in to your BS is over. You better prepare, cuz there is a new sheriff in town here, and he is most definitely not playing around. People who think the US is going to continue to take everyone you can send here is over.\n Follow our laws and you are welcome. Ignore them and you are history.

The funny thing is everyone thinks that transgender just sprung up within the past 4 years. It was rendered not a mental illness decades ago. Transgenders have been throughout history; literally the first ideology of transgender is older than the bible as the bible is written on papyrus and Inanna was writen on Sumerian Clay Tablets.

Soldier not cookie cutter. If they from out of town, watch a movie, some might ask for possible military discount, some will not. My cousin, who a Marine, not into what he call 'he/she.' But. Maybe he no think Navy Cmdr. Shilling, 'cookie cutter' trans. A military, can find a place for everyone, like IDF find place for female tank brigade, kill 100 Hamas Oct 7, no casualty of their own. IDF kick our ass in conventional war, cuz 'warrior' interwoven way of life for Israeli. When we like, only so and so can defend our nation, like Shilling say, it will leave 'holes' in the armed forces. Some people like her, irreplaceable. Anyone, who speak civilly with Collins, no interrupt, compulsively, like all manner of powerful male who interviewed by her, not a male. The 'not knowing' to Congressman, the main issue he have. She a female? She not a female? In spirituality, 'not knowing,' as in experience of WHO you are, is where you want to be. Something 'known' and it time to move on. It like ask decorated Congressman about eye patch. Who dumb enough talk about something, not gonna get better?

Democrats are to blame for pushing loudly to make everything LGBTQ ……. The next move will be no more teachers allowed to have this nonsense in classrooms a ban on all pride flags….. y’all have to let it manifest naturally not push everyone to your way of thinking…

Recruitment is not down because transgender people/DEI is not allowed. It is down because the opposite is happening. DEI/Alphabet people are being shoed into places where they do not belong over more qualified other people. This process of putting less qualified people into positions endangers everyone else. Just like female lesbian firefighters in LA who are not strong enough to carry a person to safety think this is the fault of the victims they might encounter and not be able to save. This lowers morale and affects recruitment. If a transistor can meet the current requirements, they should be allowed to finish their time, but nobody else gets a free pass.

There is always an exception to the rule and this lady might be it but still can’t have it in combat situation but I think she could fly combat missions she’s by herself I wouldn’t have a problem with it but then everyone else wants to join can’t have that test pilot sounds like a good role

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.

Your average soldier is not going to respect a leader or want to follow a leader who used to be a man and is now a woman and Vice, versa! I agree with Trump and Crenshaw even though I don't Crenshaw. There is no room in the military for this BS. I served 10 years and this BS is nothing more than a huge distraction. You have people who were going in just to get the operations. They spend 4 years in the military changing gender on tax payers dime. Out of the whole 4 years they may be deployable for about 6 months and that ain't all at the same time. When I was in this stuff was not an issue! They were not allowed to join and neither were gays.\n\n Think about it everyone is so bent out of shape over sexual assault well if you take a couple of gay guys and put them in an infantry unit they are going to look at all those men the same way a straight guy would look at all the girls if he was dropped off in an all girls collage. Nothing but problems and issues the military doesn't need!!! Seen it first hand back then when it was not allowed. Incase no one noticed military recruitment is down to dangerous levels! Doesn't anyone wonder why??? This post is why. No one wants to be part of a wishy washy military. It's to easy to get hurt or killed when things are running normal! Throw all the gay and trans BS in there and it just F**ks up everything!\n\nSo for 4 years they are almost always on lite duty, they are getting paid and getting the operations then at the end of their enlistment they walk out of the military the opposite sex they came in with and the American taxpayer is hundreds of thousands of dollars down for every one of these fools!!! This is what the democrats did!!! Join the Army and change your sex on us!!!\nNo place in the military for these fools. I feel that anyone who wants to change their sex is mentally ill!!! I have no desire to change into a woman and if I did I would think something was wrong with me and go get help!!!

Ok let’s simplify this,,do we want to be known as the country with a trans army vs everyone else’s straight army? I don’t think so

I am a newfoundlander known across the country as a NEWFIE. You ask would i give up by birthplace to move to the USA? I wouldn't consider moving to anywhere in Canada let alone move to the USA. We have health insurance which is taken care of by government, we have Dental care that's taken care of by government we have Starbucks, Tim Horton's, and all the other goodies you mentioned here or you think are goodies. We have very nice people and everyone is willing to help and not stab the neighbour in the back. We have some of the best that nature has to offer. Move? Not bloody likely.

What date?????? Date????? Actual fucking date. Everything needs to be fact checked period!!!!! So much bs out their to cause anger amongst the people. Not everyone has the brains to think too reactive and not proactive.

Why does this only apply to certain people. I think everyone in America who was not born here should go as well. If you have parents that are not from the US that makes you associated, so you should go too. So raise your hand if you have immigrant ancestors. Come on don't be afraid. Come on Italians, Europeans, Asians, Africans, raise your hands. Then there would be no one left. You all need to stop the finger pointing, because this country belongs to none of us. REALLY!

Stop whitewashing your wording. They are not undocumented migrants. They are illegal immigrants! I'm sorry that words hurt you guys and possibly the majority of your viewers but that's the truth! If someone wants to come here, I have no problem with that nor do the majority of Americans. This is an amazing nation. However, there are many legal ways to do it. I've served with several fellow Marines that did it the right (legal) way. And let's not forget, it's not only people from Central and South America that are pouring across that southern border. We've caught countless people on the terrorist watch list including people from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the like pouring across the border because they know how easy it is. Everyone is just mad because we finally have leadership that is doing something about it. And apparently, the libtards are either simply naive enough to think bad people would not come across the border and all those caravans are full of innocent women and children or they are trying to bring about the downfall and collapse of the United States. This is all simply ridiculous!

This guy really thinks he can just bully everyone into submission. Did he not learn from China before? \nHe is helping countries into an easy US isolation. What if many countries around apply that same tariff back to the US? Then what?

There have been migrations and pogroms throughout, even Biblical history. What did Trump think he could do differently, that all of humanity couldn't stop since ancient times ? Everyone who's reading this, is a product of migration, either recently or 500 or more years ago. What makes you think yhat you are that much more special than the recent migrants, that you are allowed in, but they're not. Even Jesus was a product of migration, and he lived in a land, conquered and occupied by Romans; they were migrants from Europe.

This President thinks everyone will just bow down to him. Now it's his headache where to drop these migrants. Such a big mansion in Florida can't even share it to someone who are struggling to put food in the table. Thanks to the Colombian President. Imagine watching your family members shackled in that plane. Sir these migrants have hopes in their hearts that life would be better as soon as they reach your country but no sending them back like all of them are criminals. They don't look like you convicted of some sort of crimes.

The Democrats have brainwash them into thinking it’s their right to be here illegally. This is the truth. Everyone needs to wake up Harris Biden Obama. They all have brain worse people to think it’s OK. It’s your right to come here illegally and just live here.

1?I'm a 2x trump voter.after the 2nd vote God gave me a dream I'll never forget.he's the antiChrist. I knew he would be shot.this time he will be shot again and survive again this isnt God's work? the bible says the AC will be shot .2? in my flesh I think trump was the best president we have ever had the money was good.. but the holy spirit has shown me who he is and he's already called himself the chosen one.. with his hands stretched looking up towards the sky.. dont be deceived !3? the Jews aren't looking for a Jesus type of Messiah.. they are looking for a world political leader that can lead Jews to the 3rd temple and peace ! they think trump is that guy.. they think he is the Messiah a world political leader.. for everyone not just the USA !!

Trump has just now made the peace deal in the middle east . This is the false peace and after this sudden destruction will come like labor pains upon a woman .. anyone who divides Israel will have hell rain upon their heads ! And this is exactly what's happening!!! Bible prophecy verses Donald Trump is a wild task to research when you realize the truth.. 5? the Jews have already prepared everything for the 3rd temple to be built .. the bible tells you how to make everything the temple needs.. they have already made the curtains and benches and tables and alters and priest clothing and they already have the red cow heffer ready for the 3rd temple sacrefice.. people don't realize that the muslims knew the red heffer sacrifice was coming and they knew the Jews would try to take over the temple mount so that's exactly what causes Hamas to attack isreal.. this is t just some weird rivalry.. this was biblical ❗ the muslims tried to stop the red heffer sacrifices but I believe those sacrifices was already done ❗❗ that's why u don't hear about those red heffer anymore.. they had a time limit on that red heffer sacrefice.. they would have neverrrrr missed that chance that they been waiting 2000 or 3000 years for❗ they said trump is leading them to the red temple rebuild they call him king Cyrus ❗ they also already made the temple coins..they already put trump's face on their new temple coins.. google it !!! Do research ❗6? trump was given the crown of Jerusalem in 2023 look it up on YouTube or Google it he's live one stage7?trump was given the Jewish menorah with a plate that said king of peace on it in 2024 google it or YouTube it he's live on stage accepting it8 ? ? trump made a DNA manipulating vaccine the fallen angels did the same they changed DNA in Noah's days and God sent the flood Jesus had to cover us with his blood DNA cuz of corruption and sin9?the bible speaks about a priest that puts blood on his ear thumb and foot as a ritual & its same thing trump did when he was shot MAGA IS THE NAME GIVEN TO THE HIGHEST PRIEST IN SATAN WORSHIP??10? Listen to English translations of Hilters speeches he talks about making Germany Great, his speeches were very inspiring, this is wat the bible says, AntiChrist will rise speaking GREAT THINGS ❗11?Elon is who makes the beast system he accompanies the ANTICHRIST Elon said perhaps AI is the new God now and laughed like Noah's days with fallen angels who brought technology to earth to deceive12?aliens are fallen angels they was swept into the ocean in Noah's flood. this is why they are coming out of the ocean. they are shapeshifters they can look like a flying moose if they saw fit13? they are shapeshifters they are demons they are known as frog like beings in the bible fallen one Satan shapeshifted in garden of Eden as a snake.. this is how they decieved the world14?seek Jesus Believe have faith that is unmovable!! .. no vax.. no chips in hand arm or forehead.. no government tattoos or marks of the beast.. IN JESUS CHRIST NAME HAVE SUPERNATURAL FAITH ?I've seen 3 dif kind of cancer in one person's body healed at once I've seen 2 blood clots disappear on mriI've seen someone on their death bed be fully restored.. there's nothing God can't do ❗❗❗ I've had God send angels in times of need..

Everyone read it's in 2023. Many answers/comment as this was yesterday. Always have your critical thinking, don't be so easy to fool.

A bigger backlog is a disaster for everyone. I want a decrease in the number of immigrants, but Canada owes it to these people to speed up the process.\nI also think that we should eliminate the Asylum category entirely. No more refugees.

Trump is starting a trade war with pretty much everyone else in the world. The US economy accounts for only 15% of the world's GDP, the rest of the world represents 85%. You have to be unbelievably arrogant to think you can win a trade war with China+Europe+Canada+Australia+South-America.

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..

Everyone thinks they are Mexican, but in reality is all Venezuelans, all Venezuelans want to come here.

Tariff everyone Trump. Let the prices go crazy and then see what people think about your grand orangeness.

Why does everyone think prices will go up because of tariffs? Don't you know that America is the largest economy in the world, and this is the market everyone wants to participate in? it's a great thing that Trump realizes this, Thank you Donald J. Trump!

We’ll have to clean up Trump’s mess in 4 years. Bless his heart. He thinks his name will be glorified after he’s gone. We are all riding his ego ride. Everyone hold on. ?

Don’t cry when they all get together and join BRICS this orange ? clown is a fool if he thinks he can strong arm everyone

You Trumpers are not aware or educated on anything. Do you want to be at war with every country?\nYOU will pay for the tariffs. Trump is a bully. Yes we need immigration reform. But not start a war with every\nCountry. Trump killed the immigration reform bill with Dems and repubs because it’s how he won. The bill conceded to the repubs in many ways and they were thrilled. Then he told them not to vote for it. Do you want your children in an unstable atmosphere cuz Trump is threatening everyone? think this through. He’s wants to be a ruler and the rest of the world gets his craziness a lot more than you guys.

I don't know, I really feel sorry for the people, at first they let everyone in!!! A new government comes and kicks everyone out, changes the laws... mocks people, I think it's wrong!

So naive. How do you possibly think we can accommodate, feed and subsidise everyone who just wants to come to Europe. The vast majority are not refugees they are illegal migrants. They could use the money to come legally? And, as said before, why do their fellow Muslims not help them? A question that is never answered even though some Muslim countries are the richest in the world and a lot closer to them..

Everyone thinks they should be able to live in the US..Everyone who has entered and live in the US Illegally should be deported..That should not be allowed..That message has to be send so that peopke stop trying to cross over...Biden and democrats have brought this crisis for decades..

Because you silently invade every country secretly and take over , then you still think you better than everyone else . Why must other countries even accept when you reject Missionaries and Evangelical Christians from entering India.

They don’t care about Canada but come here and force us to adapt while we’re in a housing and economic crisis and overpopulated and just finished lockdowns and layoffs and are being a gaslit into thinking we’re racist for seeing only one culture in our own country. it’s quite something especially for us who are still struggling to pay bills and make any money and have any joy in life seeing people come and claim victimhood in a place they just got too on purpose is quite appalling. It’s just Canadian culture is inherently taught to be honest and treat everyone equal when they know this and use it against us so they can lie and only help there own. It’s quite interesting how American politics has gotten young Canadians so confused on self identity and the idea of being racist that were just allowing it and bending over for them. Canadians are lonely and poor and cold and confused and will never own a home but immigrants are coming in and just expecting us to assimilate to there own culture across the world. I hope things change in the media as the media seems to be neglecting real Canadian hardships and sees Canadian citizens as rich privileged people that aren’t being directly fucked by this

Indians themselves to blame. In New Zealand and Australia they used to be professionals from India but now 4/10 working in supermarkets billing, getting the ? back, subway are Indians loud, speaking their mother tongue ..major culprits are Punjabi, Hindi, Telugu and behave badly, bought to think western woman are easy. Here they smile everyone, smile and walk away. ladies here have very poor opinion on Indian men. Where is the cross cultural training ? India should not allow passports unless people pass cross cultural training

Unfortunately, there has to be some criteria by which each country has to make a judgement. I do not understand why she is cribbing here. There is this guy who keeps going on international trips and everyone in India for gaga over the importance he brings to India through those trips. What happened? Not working? They fail to understand that all the hugs and kisses are only for the TV and in reality every country just cares for the business opportunity they get out of the other. \n\nPalki keeps talking about using our economic power. Who should be weilding it? Is it not the Government? Do they really care if an individual or a lot of their citizen's visa get rejected? They are busy painting a rosy picture to their blind followers. They abuse and mock organizations that put down the ranking of our country instead of understanding the reason behind those ranking. They have no data to contradict the agencies but use rhetoric and everyone seems to be happy about it.\n\nWhy has this lady not put in any thought on the other possible reasons for rejections that could be because of the applicants? The easiest thing to do is blame other countries for the rejection without thinking why certain types of countries reject and what has our citizens done in those countries? No point in thinking about a few people who helped build Dubai or those one of cases like Pichai & Nadella. Think of those who go their and cause concern to those countries.

Lol, the reason we have so many rejection is because everyone wants to go abroad and settle there even illegally. Other nations have not failed at infra as much as we have. Our greed and shallow thinking is why we are in this mess. If allowed, over 100 million would fly out in matter of months but those countries can't support such migration. Fifth largest economy still struggles to both build foothpaths and keep them from encroachment. First fix the issues within.

Indians are peddled this dream that everything outside is a heaven since early childhood. They see pictures of skyscrapers in Manhattan, London and Frankfurt and think everyone is living like that outside. These people are further brainwashed by immigration agencies and disguised human traffickers to put lakhs or even crores on the line for just going outside. They sell their lands, properties and other assets just to be able to go out pursuing a misleading dream.\n\nThis is a problem especially in states like Punjab, Gujarat, Telangana, Andhra and Kerala, where most of the people still believe that it's better living outside than inside. These are not people who don't have anything in India but rather well-to-do families that have homes and assets and families in the country. \n\nThen comes the added Western bias and negative media image through propaganda. \n\nIndia has much work to do - if the country keeps complaining, nothing will get done.

Lady Sudhir Chaudhary will place the blame on everyone else other than the Govt and its policies.... And here i am sitting in my home thinking we have become Vishwaguru ?

I have been living in canada my whole life and worked my ass off to get into a really prestigious university program. Everyone I knew is looking to leave Canada, and mind you these are all HIGHLY skilled stem grads. I am included in that as well, I love Canada, but I am also an Indian, nobody sees the difference between me(someone who has been raised here) and someone fresh from India with no lack for the culture. (unless they hear my accent) I don't think staying is worth it. Probably looking to head to the states.

We were military so lived right across Canada, and I can tell you the worst province in Canada is Saskatchewan. I don't have enough thumbs to turn down. The people are Very unfriendly. Think there better than everyone else, and if you need compassion from the police you won't find it there. I was with a group of military wives once and we all had to say the best and worst posting we ever had. Everyone said Saskatchewan was the worst. Nova Scotia and B. C the best. . The rest of the country is great. The Maritime provinces are the friendliest. Retired widow now and live in a small town Ontario. It's very nice here.

Idk what’s going on in China, sometimes Xi has a ton of generals and people around him. Next he’s sitting at a desk representing China all by himself. You hear half the people at the last appearance are now MIA and “somewhere in China” or the CCP ignores the question about people. Then Xi is with another group of men. \n\nI’m not sure if they’re being considered incompetent, if there are coups plans boiling under the surface and so Xi gets rid of everyone, if Xi is just paranoid, it’s definitely strange and I don’t think anyone knows what’s going on. They just call it “corruption”. The PLA leadership is like a rotating cast and the CCP officials around Xi come and go.\n\nThe CCP calls everything they do “rooting out corruption” because they can see the Chinese people are getting really sick of having to bribe officials and still being harassed anyway, the entire Chinese government and military are corrupt lol corruption is the name of the game in China. So is it for show? Or are there burgeoning factions who are sick of Xi? Would explain the heightened security.\n\nIdk very strange things are happening there and it seems like Xi is barely holding onto power sometimes.

Sounds like customer just wants his change from a $20 bill while the delivery guy is trying to claim the whole thing.\nAnd everyone in the comments somehow thinks he is the asshole???
