So basically everyone here illegally is of color cause that's all I hear about

We want our country back more money for American citizens we have veterans and families sleeping in the streets poor education and lack of basic infrastructure byeeee

Americans, you have shown your true face. We had no doubt. You want to deport, but do it in a humane way. It's ironic how you claim to be a developed nation, yet struggle with basic human compassion.

Treating innocent poor people like criminals proves the kind of morale in their counrty... yes, they can be deported but with basic human rights.. bet someone treats US officials for illegally entering countries claiming they've nuclear weapons and destroy the country but end up showing no proof of nuclear weapon... pathetic behaviour from a so called developed country - the world is watching... ?

I voted Trump, but interestingly, this topic I stand closer to critiquing the the banning of trans service members. I'm not saying it should necessarily be promoted glorified or forcefully inclusive, as the inclusion of any gender, race, etc would be, but if you're proven capable in your capacity, why shouldn't you serve? \n\nThe primary criticisms are mental health, medical requirements, and physical incapability. But mental health and physical incapability are tested in basic training and further training, if someone can't keep up with it, they would be rightfully ousted from being able to serve. This may be more evident with FTM transgenders than not since men are more physically capable. \n\nBut in the case of this pilot, a person who requires a lot of technical skill at the position, is it not fruitful to open up diversity to get the best talent for this job?

We should arrest the US ambassador in this same way not because of documents but because of treating Indians like this way. Our action should slap on clown Trump's face.\nYes they did mistake. At least they should be treated with basic respect. \nSame way can Trump treat 1 UK and Isreal citizens?\n\nI respect Canadian government for immediate slap against Trump

Im sorry a woman that transition to a men will not and cannot pass some of the basic bootcamp or top tier soldiers

America is basically made up of immigrants, but in the past they were willing to do it legally, and if they want to come over, continue to do it legally or not at sll

Good. This is called Rule of Law. In India a persons religion, caste, mother tongue are the basic criteria for authorities to decide what action to take.

As a country, you can have freedom and prosperity - or you can have a Welfare State. But you cannot have both. We are seeing that basic rule of civilization proven right in front of our eyes.

Inflation is sky. High interest rates are sky high Americans cannot afford housing in basic needs. We cannot continue to spend money. We don’t have on other countries and non-American citizens were tired of it.

they are requesting for hostage release (Peruvian) in return of Basic foods

Basically everything is going up in price and pro tariff Americans will be baffled. They really think these tariffs are somehow going to help the USA and drop prices?

Personally, I understand where Trump is coming from in the context of deportation. However, there is a slight error in the entire scenario.\n\nThe law enforcements are picking up both documented, and undocumented immigrants, and that basically translates to something sinister attached to the whole thing.\n\nI would do it differently (Treat Each Case Separately) because not every foreigner in America is undocumented, and illegal. The records are there. America is good at keeping records.

World is basically going crazy jeez

As a US citizen, I have to wonder, if pushing our Canadian brothers and sisters is the best choice. Have we forgotten that the Geneva Convention is basically a list of Canadas Military achievements?

Because everybody's hiding and they're basically taking over our neighborhoods. So we have to turn this thing around.. Very sorry?

Basically every country will tariff everyone's balls off

You know America usually helps out countries that are at war or in shambles Venezuela is basically having a civil war yet you guys won't take any refugees.... But you took a bunch of Ukrainians in...

Trudeau said they have plans to do 1 billion dollars but over 6 years... and basically zero spending now. So realistically they completely ignored Trump lol.

I wish Americans would understand that these tariffs are the biggest grift he’s had on them. American consumers will foot the bill of tariffs to fund the tax cuts for corporations and the wealthiest. Basically, it’s a tax cut funded by the everyday person. Awful.

basically. They’re not doing his job for him. While he goes and plays golf ?

Millionaires and billionaires and the politicians they’ve bought have spent the last 50 years fighting to destroy wages, unions, educational system, acces to healthcare and fought to avoid taxes for themselves leaving ordinary Americans with the bill. Trump is continuing this but more openly and loudly than ever before for all to see. What we in the rest of the western world see as basic rights and essential services is in America seen as “communism” \n\nThe consequences of this is that Americans are suffering and causing a huge demand for drugs both prescription and illegal drugs.\n\nTariffing Mexico and Canada makes no f sense when the peoblem is America and Americans. For many years USA and Mexico have worked together to combat drugs and cartels, there is no need to put tariffs on them.\n\nDrugs will continue to enter USA as long as there is a demand for it, including Musk and Trump jr. The only ones who can fix this is America itself.

Way to leave the guy unable to even communicate that he can't communicate becoz you took his translator off him!!\nYou would think that these idiots would know WHO is going WHERE, and that they would be assigned to their own sele ted groups of officials such that they at least have a rough visual idea of what they all look like.\nThis is lacking even the most basic of protocols...

The 10% China thing is laughable. That is basically saying. “We can’t tax to much, because we actually need you”. And of course the world needs China.

The 1.6 billion dollars Trudeau said he “pledged” to border security is to be spread out over 6 years! Which basically at this point none of it has beeen spent. It is a laughable amount to try to appease trumps request and trump is smart enough to read the fine print in the border security bill o know that Trudeau isn’t taking border security seriously.

For goodness sake. President Trump is the Commander-in-Chief of America's military forces. Basically, he has given a direct order. Refusal to obey a direct order is a court martial offence. These transgender human beings are offended by this direct order.

Buddy turned trans and decided to go with the most basic haircut.

Ppl spewing hate in the comments… yall real mad UNDOCUMENTED people can turn a seed into a tree. Please feel free to read The US Constitution and learn basics on CIVIL and CRIMINAL offenses.

Here in California I have met many wonderful Indian nationals; however, many assist and support the concept of illegally immigrating to the US. One woman I know, from Delhi, married one guy then divorced him, and then within a year married and divorced another man. Does anyone care about the trauma and fact this is called grifting, basically criminal fraud for a green card. She was on her thrid target when I had to stop knowing her. There are allot of Indian nationals here involved with many shady businesses, doing crime here is acting as a parasite - something easy to do as people genuinely like Indian people. Also California now has anti caste discrimination laws, the only state in the US, that should tell you allot about their integrity.

you know what this means, anyone dark will be stopped to be questioned. And then after that the Asians and after that anyone who looks Russian. So basically you better have proper ID on you even if you are natural born citizen.

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

language(french, english or both) should be the basic entry requirements coming to Canada. I have no clue how they managed to live in Canada that long and not a single word of french and english. Im sorry but rules are created for a reason, happy retirment back in india

It sounds like this video is referring to people fleeing oppressive or difficult conditions in their home countries rather than staying and fighting back. If you’re talking about Venezuela and Hugo Chávez’s legacy, there are a few reasons why people might choose to leave rather than resist:\n\t1.\tGovernment Repression – The Venezuelan government, under both Chávez and his successor Nicolás Maduro, has cracked down on opposition, jailing political opponents, suppressing protests, and using the military to maintain control.\n\t2.\tLack of Resources – Many people in Venezuela are struggling just to survive due to hyperinflation, food shortages, and a collapsing economy. When basic necessities are scarce, organizing resistance becomes incredibly difficult.\n\t3.\tFear for Safety – Speaking out against the government or organizing opposition can lead to imprisonment, torture, or even death. Many people, especially those with families, may feel that fleeing is the only safe option.\n\t4.\tCorruption and Military Loyalty – The government has secured its hold by ensuring loyalty from the military and key institutions through financial incentives and control over resources. This makes any organized resistance much harder.\n\t5.\tHope for a Better Future – Many people feel they have a better chance at a stable, prosperous life by leaving rather than staying in a country where the political situation seems unlikely to change soon.\n\nFighting a government isn’t as simple as just deciding to resist—especially when the government has control over the police, military, and economy. For many, leaving is the only realistic option.

No crazy person should be allowed to join the military. If you don't know the basic of male and female, then you should be kicked

You do understand that those street vendors are basically underground businesses that don't pay taxes nor do they follow other government rules. You leftist agenda Germans should be happy that they are being shut down.

Here’s the undeniable truth: People from Jordan are called Jordanians. People from India are called Indians. And people from Palestine are called Palestinians. Yet, the world continues to question their very existence.\n\nNow, the U.S. is telling Palestine to accept Israel’s apartheid system as if it’s a fair negotiation—when in reality, it’s a demand for surrender. Your government is offering Palestinians a mere 1% of their own land, while Palestine rightfully owns 100%. How is that justice?\n\nThe International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled in 2024 that Israel’s 57-year occupation of East Jerusalem and the West Bank is illegal under international law. Yet, these violations continue with impunity.\n\nThis isn’t about politics. It’s about basic human rights, land theft, and the erasure of a people. The world must wake up.

So basically people buy homes for 1 million, if they build 50 homes in a near new neighborhood it might drop the prices down to 700k.. people will not vote for this just to not loose any money.. and live with the fact that 50 families will struggle extremely or even be homeless.. wtf canadians...

Q\nDNA basics \nXX chromosome\nXY chromosome\nMale and female \nEverything else is pretend and biological mutilation. Your DNA basis has NOT changed. You DID NOT transition to anything other than what you were. \n?\nDO NOT BE DECEIVED. NARRATIVES ARE CREATED TO KEEP YOUR ILLUSION GOING...until you believe the LIES.\nI highly suggest staying grounded in solid truths. \n❤\nQ

My wife's been in 14 years now. Nobody cares how this effects us every two years. Even had to use the Male/Man standards to PT testing during her entire transition until her medical plan was complete. In other words, she's above the standards without basically any testosterone compared to others who had testosterone - still did better or on average than CIS Men.

Here's the problem, none of our enemies allow trans people in warfare positions....none.\nIt's a basic position for combat armies...\nNo woken policy.

If you are able to be diagnosed with a mental or physical illness that would be a detriment to your service, then you are not allowed to serve. I know this because of my diagnosable autism and fucked up knees, I probably wouldn’t be able to keep up in basic training

They do not meet the medical standards, and do not need to be a distraction to the other 99.98% of the military. In basic training, there are open showers. Young women go thru enough stress during bootcamp, and they dont need the added stress of having to shower next to a naked man.

I’m good with not having creeps in our military tbh. These people can’t even grasp basic biology let alone focus on combat

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.

U r not talking reality. 80 crore Indian's r getting free rations out of 140 crore, That is around 60%. Some r middle class and upper class and only 5% r super rich who hold massive wealth. It means in India wealth is in the hands of a few ppl. Basically India is a very poor country. Pls stop propagating lies nd fake news. Fifth largest economy but what is the per capita income of ppl of India? Peanuts.

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.

Basically Columbia was trying to dump their garbage here.

Once a president is allowed to do something like this, it just shows me that he doesn't respect people's basic human rights. We are opening the door to him to do whatever he wants to all American citizens. None of us are safe.
