scared of being deported why well they must be illegal immigrants to be concerned and a 4 year old crying scared well children are scared of the unknown

The way we're headed as a country is deeply concerning.

People were concerned about job security, demographic change and crime and they kept coming

No place in the military for this garbage. Women serving are fantastic. My wife is a Navy Chief. She maintains that women can do any job male Sailors do AS LONG AS STANDARDS ARE MET AND NOT LOWERED. Trans means a person is more concerned in themselves than the team. Putting yourself above the team is 100% unacceptable

Isn’t there a more important issue we should focus on instead of this? It's not our concern whether you CUT your shit or not so please take your drama elsewhere.

Seems like we would want to anyone who wants to serve their country. Unlike the current president who did NOT want to serve his country. And DEI and all of the other MAGA boogeyman concerns are miniscule. They are making a mountain out of molehill.

Many downtown restaurant owners have lost their business due to people choosing remote working. Not much 'concerns' for them in that case.

But the real concern is why Kaitlyn's mouth is so weird looking.

Who cares!? The military is already weakened by it's standards which have been driven so far down that this has become a major concern in 2025 along with not having enough available young males willing to fight for a corrupt regime.

What's truly alarming about this executive order is the lack of pretense. Anti-trans laws have usually carried a faux language of concern for transgender people but now it's straight to dehumanisation. Being kicked out of the military is a minor concern now. Trans people in America should be focusing on arming themselves and drills to protect themselves from state violence. If you doubt the state is not aiming to kill us you're living in a fantasy world.

The public is concerned about the price of groceries, finding a job, violence, crimes. Yet CNN leads the way, wasting time and money talking to a person who represents less than a third of 1% of our population. The emotional/gender issues and feelings - even of a commander - in the military are not our top priority. That man needs to be talking to a therapist about his gender dysphoria and emotional issues... because the top priority for persons serving in the military OUGHT TO BE NATIONAL DEFENSE - NOT GENDER ISSUES.

The question is has he medically transitioned? Is he taking hormones? Because when someone is taking hormones or had a medical transition, they obsess about it. They have to dilate multiple times a day. Someone who is so concerned about becoming the opposite gender does not need to be fighting and protecting the American people.

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”.

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.

Thank you for your service, bro. Now GTFO. Let the adults do the heavy lifting concerning the defense of this great country. If you must participate, go to San Francisco and tell your friends to leave the little kids TF alone.

To Crenshaw and others that think this way. I was deployed with a permanent P2 profile for a seizure disorder. No issues. No concern. and on meds daily..

I volunteered for years at a homeless shelter doing night intakes and my concern, drawn directly from life experience would be psychological first and foremost.

You spend too much time on issues of such little concern. This is one of the reasons that so many people have turned on CNN and why many have voted for Republicans in the last election. Frankly if I was transgender, treated the way they are by Republicans, I would quit the military.

Trump is a draft dodger. Trump has no right to say a single word concerning this issue. Trump did not serve. Has no clue what it means to serve. Trump continues to insult veterans. Veterans for Trump. Shame shame shame.

I'm more concerned with someone doing the right thing than I am with what's happening in that person's underpants. However you identify.. I TY ALL for your service to our country & for not letting bone spurs keep you from protecting & serving our country.

So basically, no biological XX chromosome women pretending to be men serving in the infantry. As a combat Veteran, this is what it boils down to for me. What you do in your own time and with whom isn't my concern. Being able to carry me or my bros on your back when we are wounded is a concern.

India has alien technology now with the meetimg s taken place with aliens spacships....it has promised tto allow to enter their galAzy with a gifted spaceship ...the agreement has reach its point to have a lasting impact on india economy and technology far superior that exceeds time and space where all nation becomes primitive and unreaponsive to india new found wealth and power...the alien has invited 10.scientist for the first.tour of their galaxy to build trust and future exaleration.the world now will consider india as dominant threath...5his is not a joke.....it has been contact and meeting held between two parties and are deeply concern over the nuclear developments ...they said the nuclear test has cause a varition in their space momentum and mass routiine

If the US government was really concerned about terrorism, all the borders would have been completely shut down and heavily guarded on September 12, 2021. All of the “War on Terror” was just an excuse to have wars to support the military industrial complex.

As far as healthcare goes the US is a 3rd world country, where, only the rich can afford to see a doctor, or visit a hospital. You have thousands of people living on the streets, with NO help, or concern. America is no different than Bangladesh, or Ethiopia, for having a part of your society living on the street, begging for food, or money. When the US starts caring for ALL of it's people, regardless of skin color, race, or background, and give them a hand up, like most CIVILIZED societies do, you'll always be a 3rd world country. America had a chance to elect a president that would have turned America into a first world power with Kamala Harris, and Tim Waiz, but, you blew it, you re-elected the worst president, EVER with trump, who will finish the job of ruining America, and make it totally poverty-stricken. WOW, you'd think Americans are all millionaires, the way they turned out, for trump! Did NONE of you listen to what Kamala was offering? Because this half blind, mostly deaf old Canadian heard every word, her promise of a bottom-up building more opportunities for poor, and working class families, new taxes on the rich, and corporations to pay for it. Kamala offered a GREAT deal, a more secure future, more OPPORTUNITIES,,,,, And you all turned her down. You voted for a stalker and rapist, a traitor, and criminal, with multiple convictions, a liar, and cheat, trump. I guess you get what you deserve.

How is this not an invasion?\n- Concerned Canadian

Columbia does not want its own citizens back due to security concerns.?

If the democrats have been tough on illegal migrants maybe they would have won the election but they are far too soft and is more concerned on teaching non binary and transgender stuff in schools ?

The fake look of concern and fear on the faces of these CNN bots is hilarious ?

Are deportees verified as USA citizens before being loaded onto planes. We should be concerned that expediency will establish the precedent that may make it possible to strip 2nd and 3rd generation citizens, or anyone who this administration wants to silence.

CNN is pathetic. You guys are more concerned about the price of coffee and Cocaine. What about the crimes these people are committing. I rather give up on coffee and shit and have my country free of crime.

It sure seems like this report is far more concerned about Colombia‘s autonomy and their ability to refuse an American military plane to land then they are with the United States’ ability to refuse illegal immigrants

This is going to backfire if Colombia joins BRICS+\nMy only concern with weaponizing the dollar with imposed tariffs is that it will motivate countries to abandon the dollar as their primary trade currency and join BRICS+ . This will be devistating to us

As a deeply concerned Republican and Trump supporter. This 25% tariff on Columbia worries me. Does this mean Matt Graetz's coke cost will be going up?

Oh well, now you liberals are worrying about prices! And coffee prices now get you concerned? Stupid people

Democrats are more concerned about these criminals than the American people let that sink in

They more concern on coffe,than the criminals in there backyard

If Colombia is so concerned about the treatment of their countrymen why deny their return? They have to remain cuffed and treated like criminals which they are for breaking the law. Why not accept your people and help them get re-established? They just don't want their people back, be honest.

Considering how little Columbia exports to the US, I don't think the moderate government in Bogata is too concerned. But for the average Fox news watcher and retard MAGA crack pot, they still don't know or understand how tariffs actually work.

Serious Concern - Border Security is National Security point blank ? MAGA KAGA AMERICA ?????????? FIRST.

They are more concerned about the people going to their own capital, one time, two years ago then this. Where's the outrage for protecting these law enforcement officers?

The Chinese ?? coming from the southern border are a *big concern* for American ?? national security. \nOthers don't have the same issue.

Great answer from a civilised person ?. Criticism from who? Why?. Probably concern that same who supported the genocide. Not going to work with anyone who has that agenda. ??

You guys gate kept the jobs from Canadians, rejecting our applications and pay us unliveable wage, then cry that you dont have enough workers, only to go get foreign workers to replace us.Then cry about crime rates and the housing market. Canadians want to work!!, we have been working for many winters now!!, but you guys keep preventing us from working because you want cheap labour. cheap labour comes with a lot more economic issues than hiring citizens. Our concerns were ignored and we were called lazy...to the point where someone like DONALD TRUMP is laughing at us and calling us a state. lining your pockets wasn't enough, now our integrity as a country is being questioned. If Trump made us a state, I would NOT be surprised.

IF Mexico is so open and great. Why aren't Mexican citizens and others not staying their? Than Mexican citizen complaining that their Tijuana town will be over run wasn't concerned when their country didn't stop all these millions of ppl entering America. Now they are concerned. for THEMSELVES.

I'll chip in to buy them one way ticket to Germany, lol. stop playing mother Teretha when you have no stake in it, your concerns are cheap.

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.

I would like to discuss the challenges related to the waste and damage sometimes left behind by certain Indian immigrants. As a Dutch resident, I’ve noticed an increase in immigration from India to Holland, and one of the main concerns appears to be the difficulty in adapting to local norms and respecting community regulations. Over the past eight years, I’ve had different Indian families living in my apartment building, and unfortunately, I’ve observed a decline in hygiene standards within the apartments and the broader community

Thank you for raising our concerns Miss Propaganda Sharma ?

Mil jul kar bakwas karti raho..You are nothing but an overpriced propagandist. The amount of arrogance you have projected on behalf of the sanghis is ridiculous..Even now you are giving all this a spin. Its not only Indians that have to go through all these protocols. As far as the passport index position is concerned the foreing ministry interesctions with press and it utterances during meetings with other Foreign Ministers need to br reviewed.. Your extremely arrogant suggestion about leveraging our economic standing will have an adverse effect. Dont try and emulate USA of the 60d and 70s..Those days are long gone..Even you ate slowly becoming a prehistoric fire breathing Pterodactyl..a relic.\nWas it not this(You) shameless propagandist of the BJP that was claiming at the Oxford Union debate the importance of the Indian Passport on the world stage? Would she tell us what our standing was at the time of her absurd assertions? It is time we Indians did a reality check..

It’s becoming increasingly clear that you are just an Indian mouthpiece and not an objective journalist. Investigate why western countries are now having a hard time trusting Indian immigrants. Explore concerns such as the submission of fake school and bank documents, certificates obtained through questionable means, or unethical practices like bribery and cheating, engaging in criminal activities such as transporting drugs. Additionally, examine behaviours that have drawn criticism, including conduct in public spaces like food banks, traffic violations, littering in parks, noise levels, and hygiene practices in communal settings. These observations merely scratch the surface of a complex issue that deserves thoughtful and nuanced analysis. India should teach them proper social etiquette on how to act in other countries. You can't buy civility
