Put a normal outfit on like a normal human being and serve the country like you're supposed to. The Clown show is over.

What is wrong is wrong and when it is illigal it cannot be made as the new normal.

We need biologically normal people. The human race has two genders. Nothing in between.

This person was born a man and tried to change to a women. HE should be able to do what he wants in his personal life but not in the military. To actually go out and try to force your body to change to a women from man is not normal.

I think it depends on the individual . I'm no expert, but if a man or woman is fit to serve, and wants to serve, why limit yourself to just men ? If there were a draft, would you want your son serve because he was made to, or would you want someone that signed up because it's their dream to serve? I'd serve with Cmd. Shilling, over any maga so called normal person.

I’m so fed up of this talk over and over again - like who cares just make you’re own damn community and leave us - the rest of the normal folk alone. ???

Normally, when you break the law, you face penalties. How is this being argued against? What is the point of the law if it is not enforced!

It is normal to be uneasy when you are in another country illegally.

Finally the U.S is coming back to normal. Greetings from Moscow.

Transgenders transitions back to normal.

Dood I’m sorry but fukem. Do it legally like a normal person. Better yet take that energy amd put it into fixing your own country. We got enough problems of our own. Duh

When this person is addressing this is issue it seems to be normal. Can women serve in the military? Yes! The deal is transgenderism. Who voiced this stupidity of gender transition in children? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who advocates for children using puberty blockers? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who is advocating for bathroom use? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. Who is advocating for drag queens reading for your children and elementary school, some books that are like a molestation towards a child? Transgenders advocates just like this “commander”. What he can or cannot do in an airplane is not my concern at this time. My concern is many of the problems we have today is not coming from those who conform but from those who wants to flip things over. Thanks for your services but take a leave and please don’t come back “commander”.

Go ahead and protest. Just more disruption on top of disruption. The US does not have a responsibility to support every abnormalty just the way you want. All you have to do is get a haircut and check the box that says male. Constrain your sexuality to the bedroom. Do not make it an issue for normal people.

If you know what your sex is then why do we have these people in the military. This is BS that people think that bringing this into the military is not good for our country. Sounds like the regular BS coming from CNN. So was she transgender when she went in the military ? This is totally bizarre in 2025 normalizing this. She lied to get into the military.

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!!!

They do not meet the requirements! They took me out because of one of my eye when I do not need any medicine or treatment and I was completely normal , mentally and physically, while they need medication for life , they are a carryover

you have gender disphoria this is not normal

Aside from their physical medical needs and hygiene problems these people got mental problems , their inability to accept reality is normally just tip of iceberg . If i'm in the trenches of war i don''t want to depend on them and frankly they don't want to depend on me cause of that . Also women don't need to be in trenches either . It severely idegrades the reasons a man fights in 1st place and is more mentally damaging , disheartening , demoralizing . Could be reasons for many lost battles in next real war .

THIS CONDITION IS NOT NORMAL, THESE WAYS OF BELIEVING IS DEMONIC. IT'S A SPIRITUAL PROBLEM. CNN IS NOT A PLACE TO GO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS STAND FOR WHATS WRONG, PERVERTED, AND LIES.

If u wana blame, blame those spoilt wokeness kids and those trans whom exploited for financial gain. When they’re making chaos, none of the normal trans stand up to stop their ridiculous.

what is the opposite of anti woke & anti Transgender ideology? it almost seems like a crime if you're normal.

So a men that thinks he's a woman is thinking normal!!!

I support Trans people doing what they want, but the military is not the environment to project your sexual identity. Yes, there are some Transgender people who are very capable of performing in the military, but some of the behaviors that are normal in the LGBTQ community are not normal to the heteronormative United States military.\n\nThe U.S military focuses on optimization, and they already have a resourceful system. They don't want to alter what's already proficient. That's mostly why they don't accept Trangender ideologies. ?

I’m black and not a Trump supporter but agree with him . I feel we straight men are been discriminated against these days . Stop forcing abnormal behaviors on our kids as normal behavior. Gay indoctrination by cnn n Biden wrong

Let them in got 10 years of paying tax MUST pay 10% more tax then normal YEAR 10 give them 10% back plus Green card...whats the Problem

This is normal during trump administration

this is not normal someone lie to this people, to make such hard journey in masses.

These savages need to go home and try to enter the right way like good normal people!!!

Are there any of normal countries to enter without documents, passports on earth except united states? USA is doing right things such as any other countries for the border entering. I agree to trump and his government.

There is a real problem of names of people that have passed and there reputation used for an athlete like we wouldn't figure it there where not thornhills in the United States except my grandparents new weren't slave owners either I'm non racist how dare you spread the name out so much Kaleb thornhill Juan thornhill how dare you put these two as being athletes in thornhill city when the real ancestors downplayed insane real thornhills are athletes what a scam bow bow s mother was not a thornhill leave it crips and others stolen so much identity must be doing something right I've never encountered so jealousy and hate in my life we are real normal moving along in careers goals and ambitious well I'm sending I can't believe I have to do this insane amount stop hating when I do

Colombia has taken so many evil people and poor destitute people from Venezuela as refugees and it can’t absorb them but Colombians normally come legally to the USA and make great Americans my family in law for example are good conservative people who support Trump and I’d like to have my family in the USA all in one place especially is colombia will turn into Venezuela under a corrupt regime who has ruined everything and hurt most of the citizens idk how he won if he did even win but the USA came into Colombia before to stabilize it and it worked for a long time and there are 30,000 U.S. expats here or people with family ties or like me who happened to marry into a Colombian family. Not long ago I saw Trump with former President Duque and their wives and there was a beautiful relationship and colombia was booming in one year the USA must put back the former establishment and restabilize the mess that has been made under this communist guerrilla member and I hope saying this doesn’t bring lash back to me or my family here in Colombia. But my husband and me want to come home to the USA as soon as possible he isn’t a criminal his father is a Pastor at a small countryside church they don’t deserve this.

They are used to lawlessness. That is normal for them.

Trumps mental illness is getting dangerous...please someone get him dome help before this gets our country and its people in jeopardy..please look at what he is doing is not normal....

Colombia didnt back down at all, thats the one sided narrative from Trump. Petro said they will not accept people chained up like criminals but would accept and even supply aircraft to bring them back respectfully. So if Trumpet now sends them back respectfully he will have backed down.\nImage the rest of the world hit the US with tariffs and watch a failing country fail further. Trump wont feel a thing but the normal people in the US will suffer.

This People did the Work,That no America people don't want to do!! Trump and his Olygarker don't no what a normally works is!!!\nThis is catastrophe what America do to this People!?

What if, Colombia does not retaliate, so U.S. goods entering Colombia remain tariff-free. Colombian consumers continue to pay normal prices for U.S. products. They may even benefit from increased exports if Colombian producers find alternative markets for their goods.??? I wonder who will be Upset... ???

California can feed the people with things they would normally export

Hey President Trump what abouth grocery , price of eggs etc, Now this ... US goods and services trade with Colombia totaled an estimated $53.5 billion X by the tarrif you will impose. Can you calculate the cost the American normal poeple will pay? Plus Canada plus Mexico ?

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!!!

see what the liberals have normalized

All of MAGA flooding the comment section, clinging to their one success story that will no doubt be short-lived. Very normal behavior.

Isolate yourself and annoy everyone. You shall fall. ??? This is not normal. ???

No. Military planes is threatening to any country!Colombia doesn't like the president sending them on military planes. He said he will accept the colombians if they are transferred in the normal planes migrants have always came back on. Actually the military planes cost us tax payers 20,000 a flight per hour. The traditional planes cost 8000. So just stick to the normal planes and everyone wins. It really is,all silly. Stupid news. Let's put some regulations on real estate market. So tired of drug money laundering used to buy homes and I cannot afford a home. This is just trump tv unnecessary drama!

Nauseating to here media normalizing a criminal,rapist, felon, violent insurrectionist, tax fraud, wife cheater, liar, thief, intellectual midget, fake Christian and treasonous traitor referred to as president. Only corruption enabled this and corporate influence behind GOP ethical collapse \nNot the president. Illegitimate and mentally ill. Captain Blye.

Because its so normal to just fly into a sovereign country without diplomacy.\nYour guy in the White House is an arrogant ignorant.\nGod bless America, you’re gonna need it.

It’s called desperation folks. Do a little research and find out what these people are trying to get away from! What would you do if you believed that this was the only way to protect your children, your family? I understand that the US doesn’t want criminals coming across our borders and that this wasn’t the way to do it. There are also many normal people. My heart goes out to those that sold everything they had to have to pay the cartels to make it through Mexico, because they won’t let anyone pass through without paying them. I’m sorry for them having to deal with the worst that life could throw at them. I pray that they are able to find another way to live.

Looks like an invasion to me. Normally you would use military force when somebody tries to invade your country I don't know why this is any different

As a Brit I know many decent integrated Indians here. But none of them are recent arrivals. Older immigrants were respectful and wanted to be British and adopt British ways. But newer immigrants act as if we owe them something while acting in disrespectful dirty disgusting ways. For example in India I have to use Indian toilets as Indians do. I don’t pretend I don’t understand how to use them, I don’t need instructions on the door and I don’t break the toilet by standing on it, shytting up the walls and all over the floor and leave it there like that’s normal. I’ve worked in offices where this was routine when Indian contractors were brought in. Integrated Indian men seem to take great pride in dressing smartly and smelling good. But it’s really common for Indians to smell REALLY BAD. Poor personal hygiene plus excessive amounts of Indian food (you’re abroad ffs try some different food!) creates a truly vile odour. Some Indian men also think it acceptable to stare at and harass British girls (although to be fair they do not have as bad a reputation as their neighbours) they are also rude and racist to white people especially women. Some Indians in 2025 still seem to think they’re living under the Raj and Britain is ‘oppressing’ them. They’re not and we’re not. The empire brought benefits to India and left peacefully over 70 YEARS ago. We don’t owe you ANYTHING. This victim mentality means India will NEVER be a proper first world country. You can flood the world with sheer numbers but you will never be respected or improve the world in any way, you will only ever leech off the invention of others. I do not mean to disrespect the many decent Indian people I’m just telling the truth. As a culture your presence outside of India is negative because of the way so many Indians act, trying to create India wherever they go. And they have the cheek to say this is ok because they got colonised. WELL SO DID WE! That is the truth.

It’s pretty crazy, insane even, that national security has been politicized to the point that one side of the political aisle is willing to let criminals without proper citizenship run rampant on the streets while one side who enforces what is simply a normal, common-sense standard is seen as extreme. We’ve allowed politics to damage our ability to think rationally, to the point that we are endangering innocent lives merely to prove a political point.

This is normal
