I just heard this. What is the motive behind the blockade? Is he liberal, meaning the leader of Colombia? Or are they saying no to international criminals? Why block it? Meaning Columbia. They are citizens of that nation. Feels like they are violating International law...meaning Columbia. Just take them back, and avoid the tariffs Why suffer economically to play politics in a country they don't live in? I question the Columbia's leader's morality. People will suffer, economically. Perhaps, that man needs to step down from his office for breaching international laws regulating international immigration treaties. Step down, being the civilized way, to avoid conflict and misery.

Trump should deported his wife to convince people of USA, I want to know is trump administration deporting only criminal immigrant ? as he claims in his speech ?

It is insane. Me and my husband paid few hundred thousands on taxes the last year. For what ? To feed those people who commit crime? It is very simple for me- crossing the boarder illegally is a crime.\nMe and my husband both paid our immigration fees when we did our immigration. Why we have to support that nonsense ??

People will fight back. The more you block them off, the stronger the resistance becomes. What do you do now? It looks like things were better when there was some form of controlled flow of immigrants than this utter chaos. Even if I want to think that this invasion is not okay, it was the US who invaded all their ancestral lands first. Mexico used to be all the way to California extending to Texas. Now, US wants to annex Canada and Greenland.

What the Colombian president did is he showed compassion and kindess to those undocumented immigrants to be treated like actual persons that's why he offered the Convicted Felon/president Trump for those people to be brought to Colombia using presidential plane.

Ask any U.S. Government employee about all the immigrants that are in high GS positions they are not qualified for. I’m thinking Nigerians especially. Been going on for decades. And we are worried about these people.

The globalist ordered them to over run it for political reasons. Because it was heavily organized when, scheduled caravan from mexico. They don't care if they get hurt spiritually or bodily. The globalist need to be held accountable for ordering this. Racketeering invasion. Ngos handle these people. Those people are given false promises. Their handlers are illegal and the immigrants also are willing to be illegal. God speaks about the lawless ones in the bible having a hard road.

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!

I had supported the deportation of undocumented people with criminals records back to them own country, but Mr T is deporting undocumented people who are working in industries that many Americans will never work, and treating them as criminals, placing them in airplane chained and hand cuffed. Also, a interesting fact is, he is only targeting people from Central America, Brazil, but a lot of undocumented immigrants are from Europe, Asia…maybe because they are not “brown people” like he once said, let us see what will happen when the prices of some services and products start rising, how citizens will react.

Put the american people first...they are clearly braking rules and yet we Americans are supposed to feel sorry for them....we don't know what their agenda is, we don't know who they are at all..they will only be more laws for illegal immigrants....so he'll no don't allow them regardless of what....what about the american people.....

The idiot though he could send people into other countries on a whim. As if the US was the only country in the world with immigration laws.

i get it... i do... but man its so hard to see. those aren't terrorists! they're obviously people seeking a better life! is it possible to legally immigrate here? absolutely. my cousin did it. but its not easy. most american citizens wouldn't be able to pass that test, and its an expensive and lengthy process. i do feel so bad for these people. =(

Trump forgot that its immigrants who are hardworking people and bringing revenue to the nation ..if you take them all out then you will be left with nothing but junkies...karens ? good luck

Deportation operatives started in Puerto Rico!!!! Thank you president Trump!!!! \nEnough is enough!!!! \nThere's about 3 million people in Puerto Rico and 500 thousand of them are immigrants, most of them undocumented Dominicans. \nIt's a long-term invasion.

Whatever works to get them back humanely and with some dignity!. Thinking we should use standard immigration transport procedures and not u.s. military vehicles. People get nervous about u.s. military in their airspace. Not just of fear og mishaps but espionage plausibility and security clearances in those countries too. \nThere is a reason we have never used u s. Military for diplomatic issues

My mother and her neighbor's house (in the Bronx) were both broken into last Month, the neighbor, An ex Marine, got his motorcycle stolen. Unbeknownst to the thieves, he had an apple air tag on his bike, the cops found his motorcycle, which he worked hard for, and other motorcycles in storage unit in the South Bronx, which was being used by a gang of illegal Venezuelans and Dominicans. Most people don't care about the illegal immigration crisis because it mostly affects black and brown communities sadly. Thank you Trump for sending these criminals back!!!

I’m not even mad at Trump only thing I agree with him on is immigration I stay in LA and I’ve been homeless for like three weeks I went to the LA mission they do not take single individuals they only take families that are illegal immigrants how is that fair Most of the people are from Venezuela and I know they need help but what about me a US citizen One of the ladies who work there Also was Telling me they are helping them with housing low income housing I’m like man

It's from the Jan 6th riot you imbeciles one more thing you may have be born here but if your ancestors aren't native American then YOUR ancestors were immigrants as you call them, their people the same as YOUR immigrant ancestors

Apparently no one there gives a crap about those children, jesus christ. If you wanted to solve the immigration issue, you fix the issue of why these people want to leave their own countries. The USA in Hollywood has said for as long as it's been alive that in America you can live the dream and that America is the best, so why are you surprised when these people show up wanting the same thing. If we didn't have asshole dictators, this likely wouldn't be a problem, but you know how power hungry greedy c##ts are.

Dear CNN,\nPresident Trump pulling tail leave head\n(do you have any idea that who emptied your barn godowns and converted english countries as countries of worthless?).\nThe people (true culprits) who stand as threat to US (and english and Christian european) hide somewhere (these impostors so far received no damages, besides american couldn't identify wolf and sheep).\nThese south american are people of less harm (these people easily fell into the hands of security forces and receiving humiliation).\nStudy about the charector of immigrants and treat accordingly (in the way that is suitable).\nHarassing neighbours bring bitter yielding (in long term/for a long period of time).

They sent 1000 people away. \nAnd There are 12 million illegal immigrants. One needs 12000 flights to send away everyone

Dictator Trump is persecuting these immigrants as were the Jewish people persecuted. Doesn't this feel terribly wrong?!?

Columbia didn't fold. Read the real story before becoming a bouncing Betty people they will hit us with high tariffs just like we did them coffee and fruits will sky rocket because Fascist Trump called the immigrants criminals!

they came from Colombia and now they dont want there own people back ...terrorists and drug dealers how nice is Colombia lol just beautiful they dont want there own immigration back

We all immigrants lady? don't forgot the fact only Native Americans Tribal Nation's first People's are the real Americans for thousands of year's ? before the evil European countries colonized America continent.

All this illegal immigrant mess has to stop. My question is.. why we do not take care of our homeless people, our veterans, the drug issue, mental health in our country and we let the other countries resolve their issues. We cannot use our tax dollars to fix other peoples problems we have our own. CNN, MNSN are so ridiculous and indecent with Americans.!! Why i dont see images of all the homeless people sleeping in the subway.. i guess there are no shelters, debit cars and meals for them!! Ahh and before you said anything im a Venezuelan legal migrant now proud american!!

How is it possible that they are saying deportation numbers were higher during Biden administration, yet we have been faced with the worst immigration crisis in the history of our country? Also, I would never want to sour any relationship with any country but I solute our President for being a nonsense approach and defend his country from criminals. My God, can you imagine what scum we had amongst us, if even their country doesn’t want them. I can live without Colombian food. They can stuff it up where the sun doesn’t shine. I’m only heartbroken for the people who have families there who will now suffer because they’re communicating and visiting will be greatly affected. And this is why Trump calls these assholes terrorists. Because of these assholes families are held hostage by not being allowed to have physical contact with each other.

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.

Turned back because the immigrants weren't criminals but were in military planes and were being treated less than human. donny had no authorization to enter Columbia's airspace nor permission to land and unload people on a tarmack.

You know what makes Trump a political buffoon? Americans took over Central and South America in the 1940s. Oh, now that the leader of Columbia turned back American military aircraft this announcer is said he's not popular with his people. And please, talk English.This isn't an immigrant crack-down if military craft fly to other countries at will.

I didnt ask MAGA this question going to the 2024 election because I know they have a FINAL Solution in mind. But I asked reasonable and smart people, Uh - how is he going to deport 15 million Immigrants? Where are they going to go? He is already going to a Nazi-like Interment Camps. Dont be surprised it he and Elon take the next step.

This has nothing to do with immigration. It boils down to calling people vermin. Stock up on coffee.

Mexico has every right to deny any undocumented immigrant from entering their country, you can’t just pack people and send them without permission from other country. Human trafficking done by United states against the law .

Why not stop demonizing immigrants and add more taxpayers with a comprehensive immigration reform instead wasting billions you intend in a racist agenda , such an hypocritical when Texas and Florida and borders states send all this immigrants in buses back in 2022 . You create this and the way you want to fix this is being racist and blaming all as trafficking and cartels when you know is not true , most of them are hardworking individuals, add more taxpayer’s comprehensive immigration reform is very easy if you stop hating brown people . Racism is. Mental illnesses you all .

If they are illegal immigrants, and didn't apply for citizenship, what's the problem with sending them back to their countries? And their countries have to take them back. Why should they be allowed to stay in the U.S. if they came in illegally? I don't understand why people have a problem with this.

Columbia will accept if the deported immigrants are verified that they’re citizens. Like in the past with commercial flights With emergency travel documents. Who knows what these people are , could be AGENTS /spies TO disrupt the country with coup. You can’t just land any military aircraft into anywhere without the other\nCountries national security agencies .

Not the responsibility of struggling Americans to take care of other countries or people fleeing from them. We are not their slaves. We have enough homeless already and not enough homes and the last thing we need to do is destroy more land to make more cities for all these immigrants. More cities means more polution, no way around it. We cant absorb the whole world and we're already past the point of living in balance with the llanet naturally.

Reduce immigration jobs ? Wtf. They are doing this to actually hurt the system and the people. I bet is people from out of Canada doing this. ??? it must be a none Canadian doing this

Clearly Trump saw this coming, as he’s sending troops in. I have to believe that the people coming to the border now already know they won’t be eligible for immigration. The only thing that will occur is that people will get hurt. Biden encouraged this for four years.

We just want ballenced and fair immigration. We want people with similar vaules and customs. We want people with education. Wr dont need to have immigration for Subway and Tim Hortons workers. We want doctors. India has very different values and customs we dont want or aappreciate. They have no pubic sanitation but have a space program. They also have a very disrespectful culture towards women

The Indian immigrants that came in the 70s and the 80s are good people and raised their family well. Not the recent ones who throw food on the street.

Illegal aggression entry should be punished just as other crime laws. Where and how people are thinking to immigrate illegally in a country without nothing and expect or force government of the country to hand you a free heaven?! Lord Almighty give us peace in this ? world.\nProtect those law enforcement who are working in risking their life to protect us all ??

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.

God what a mess. I can see why Trumps putting Americans first- and it’s changing the game on immigration - so sad these people feel they need to leave their home country as they have no hope because their useless leaders are corrupt and dangerous - the UN and all these other big organisations have failed dismally and only serve the well paid bureaucrats who prop them up…. Look at the faces of those desperate people- heartbreaking. But America shouldn’t have to be their only solution.

In the us they are lying about the immigrants are doing jobs Americans don’t want. The lies they tell!!! The jobs want to hire immigrants to pay them less money. Lots of jobs are lowering the starting pay and hiring immigrants. Some jobs aren’t hiring Americans. A lot of jobs are laying people off and I know it’s to hire immigrants

Twenty years ago in Toronto, a one-bedroom apartment could be rented for around $700 a month. Today, a similar apartment costs between $2,500 and $3,000 per month. The government should regulate housing market investments to prevent the pursuit of profits at the expense of ordinary people. \nWith the large influx of immigrants of all kinds, there is increasing pressure on families and individuals to rent or buy housing. For instance, in one neighbourhood, a house has been fitted with two bunk beds per room, with the owner charging $500 to $700 per bed. One can only imagine how many people live in that house and what it looks like in the summer when everyone gathers in the backyard. \nIf the government fails to regulate immigration to align with the real needs of the economy and housing market, what’s next? May people be forced to rent a bed for just eight hours of sleep or resort to living in sheds or makeshift plastic tents on the streets? \nAnd when the economy takes a downturn, leaving people with no income, what will happen then?

Good. I know people struggling to find a job right now. Canadians first, immigrants second!

I really wished all these people that fight so hard for all these ILLEGAL immigrants would fight for our US citizens too like homeless vets or homeless in general or the everyday person

It's Mexico's fault. People are whining and boo hooing about the border wall.\nFact: Mexico has a southern border wall to keep out illegal immigrants from central America countries entering Mexico from the south. \nIf you don't believe me do your research.

Pardon my ignorance, but can tourists or people wanting to cross for legitimate reasons get into USA across that border now? Not everyone crossing is ‘an illegal immigrant’.
