Good someone finally stopping us from being used.

This showed that Trump is not playing with these people or the presidents. The fact the 2 aircraft took those immigrants to Colombia and were refused landing, is retarded. Then instead of letting the planes land drop off the criminals and leave. They didn't let the US planes land. They said they would send their own country's planes to pick up the criminals. What Trump should do is charge Columbia for the fuel the US military used, and charge them for the US pilots' time. Double time and a half pay for waisting the US time and a waisted flight.

The amount of energy expended to gain illegal entry into the US would be better used to change their country of origin.

As much as I dislike dump as he is a walking talking lying machine, using this lying machine against people outside of US is very advantage. Dump is a true bully and he certaining knows how to bully other countries to do what he wants.\nUnlike the democrats who are soooo freaking soft it's not even funny. The democrats should NOT have accepted that results of the 2025 election, they should have claimed election fraud and then started a riot too. Why do the democrats need to be soooo nice to dump when dump gave them the middle finger??

Looks like a hostile invasion force to me. US law enforcement should be directed to use any means necessary to combat them... any means.

The comunists are using their own people as card of exchange, this is a war against US

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.

Looks like the US may have to start using force

I used to look forward to travelling in the US but the health care is an issue and since Trump has been on the political scene, I prefer to go elsewhere

The funny thing is you keep saying the phrase “US Allies “ when you should use “former US allies “ the US has no allies as it doesn’t want any .don’t act like you should be leaving America for your next vacation . No one else wants you to visit . Please stay home .

Stay in your country and fix it. Use that force you're showing us right now to demand your government to help you.

Very good? By that you mean we have the absolute worst trade deals. Our Representatives has let the whole planet walk all over us when it comes to trade deals or anything that involves other countries and money from the United States or any country using the United States to make money for themselves. That's all ending now in America will actually start making money instead of our debt Clock going in reverse faster than an F1 car

Howdy Trumpies? Prepare for inflation. I wonder if MAGA even understand how tariffs work? Tariffs are trade barriers, and they can be used to protect domestic industry. \nSuppose US imports a product 'A' for $100 from some country. Now, if 10% tariffs are imposed on that country then that product 'A' would be sold for $110. Enjoy!!! \nYes, a domestic company can produce that product A and sell it at low prices like say $90, since no import duties or stuff. However, that takes time and not all products can be produced domestically!

The two flights to Mexico that got turned away carried less than 100 migrants cost US taxpayers $900,000! CNN might want to mention that. Drumpf used expensive military jets because he just couldn't wait for CBP jets (because he wanted a photo shoot!). He should have to pay for the extra cost out of his pocket, not ours. What will it cost to take migrants back to China? Tax cuts for the billionaire broligarchs cost US money. Using C-130 aircraft is overkill and affects military readiness. Threatening tariffs on our allies is going to spark trade wars. He's a moron.

You will see the use of deadly force in the future used on US borders to repel illegal immigrants

The US is crumbling, I can see the old man child using military force to get what he wants.

Explain it to them through THEIR lens. Thats what they care about. Here is an example: feel free to use it:\nYou buy a GE company bulb that is made in China for $10.\nNow trump imposes a 25% tariff on imports from China. \n1. Who collects the Tariff: The US Govt.\n2. Who pays the extra 25%? GE. \n3. Is GE a philanthrophic/charity organization? No. So why will they bear the cost of the exta 25%?\n4. So what do they do? Now your bulb costs $12.5.\n5. Why? Because 25% of 10 is 2.5. So 10+2.5=12.5\n6. What does this increase in price mean? Inflation.\n7. Wont this encourage make in America? No, because you deported immigrants and now you have to pay american wages. Suddenly your bulb costs $20 because GE pays minimum wage to an American. So yeah, now everything is made in America but you are homeless paying more for everything.

They had no problems with previous flights that were civilian aircraft. No nation is going to allow the US military to land in or use their air space or facilities.

? they better not label that as following republican values lol. it's smart to use this kind of rhetoric to hide the isreali and US crimes

And this is the part where colombia will retaliate by dropping the Petro dollar. People have to understand the US is on thin Ice for using what was supposed to be a fair tradeable currency and one of the reasons why many countries adapted it in the 50s but since we have been weaponizing it expect Nations to drop the dollar to minimized the US influence in what is supposed to be an open international market.

How will everyday Americans react to the rising cost of Colombian imports due to Trump's tariffs? He's using us as pawns in his political game while hurting both U.S. consumers and Colombia.

This is a much easier fix than what’s being portrayed. We need to make the ability to become a temporary citizen easier than it is. Background checks, usable skills, and political or criminal affiliation. If it’s not possible to access, so is your entry. I support my president and my nation completely and yet I still understand that the deplorable conditions of these broken nations is something I too would want to escape from. By making it so impossible to legally enter, we’re funding the criminals who will do so illegally. \n And can we talk openly about the real issue as well? It’s time for the U.S to clean house too. Government officials taking bribes from the Cartels and making it harder for us to put safety measures in place. We have to stop being in business with these criminal elements. I get it, the money’s being used to fund our military initiatives that tax dollars can’t, like in the 80’s with Contra, but how many U.S lives have to be lost to secure a foreign policy???

They aren't undocumented migrants CNN. The US Constitution defines them as illegal aliens. Use the correct terminology CNN!!!

This is what the Dems don't understand about tariffs -- they are a negotiating tool, Trump is using tariffs as a leverage. They're not meant to be permanent. They don't even have to go into effect at all. Just the threat of tariffs is often enough. Colombia can't survive without the US as a major trading partner. Tariffs would kill them. So, they quickly changed their tune. Which is why the Colombian President 'Gustavo Petro' has already folded to Trump and has reversed his decision to allow 2 military transport planes to land there after being threaten with tariffs, serious sanctions etc. Like him or not, Trump understands how to negotiate.

i did the math. one flight had 80 migrants. 25k per hour C17 fuel cost. roughly 600mph, 8 hour round trip. not counting personnel and maintenance. 400k round trip. 5k per migrant. WTF. Why would you not use commercial flights. How has the media not spotted this glaring expenditure? Insane.................... Not even talking about tariffs now.......... Cost to US citizens food. WTF.

And Columbia has issued they own tariffs against the US. What nots being told is that they were using military planes. Petro has offered his own presidential plane to transport these humans

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!

Mentally deranged libs were so used to having an emasculated geriatric president who hates the US and its people. I have zero respect for these people and am so glad majority of the people have realized the left is just a bunch of mentally deranged individuals.

They would lose LOTS of business as US buys a ton but we also produces it’s our own. Why they already backed down in under 1 hour. \n\nTariffs are used as a weapon, not a tax, because people will stop buying and buy elsewhere. Ultimately it becomes cheaper or the same to buy US made items meaning more U.S. workers.

Do they know what “ migrants” was used for? Migrant workers who would go back and forth during agriculture seasons. \nThese people are not “migrants”, their illegal aliens who did not come into the US lawfully. Praise this President who is not going to put up with countries sending their citizens into this country snd crossing the border illegally

US needs to correct this ASAP crazy that these ppl can use our food as collateral when we can produce in USA

Using US military aircraft to deport migrants is way more expensive than just sending them home on a regular airline flight. It's all a performative waste of our tax money.

Hahahah tariffs. Hell use those tariffs to steal it and send it to israhell. Meanwhile civilians will pay it with inflation. In reality, us govt is stealing from Americans ???

Try sending them with civilian planes. Military planes are considered you know military forces so it could be viewed as an invasion.\n\nSame reason why other countries don’t use military planes to enter US territory there are rules…

And Columbia already caved. Letting us use his own plane lol

Colombia told them to use passenger planes not military. Sending military planes is an insult to their nation. The US needs to come correct. Keep making threats. BRICS is about to be the new works standard.

GO FIX YOUR OWN COUNTRY, why do you expect us to fix things for you. ! USE THAT ENERGY TO MAKE RIGHTS IN YOUR LIFE And go home.

Lol no one can just get green cards even before landing in the US you either have to cross the border, or come in using some kind of student visa, or come in using some kind of employment visa which is almost impossible because no employer will hire you if you are not eligible to work in thw US in thw first place

I knew something like this might happen.\nBut, it’s true that they have made us Americans poor by being handed every cotton pickin thing. \nAnd, use that force to clean your Country up.

Biden Admin policies destroyed US and Pakistan. Trump Admin must use force to kick these back to Mexico. These South and Central America’s do not deserve to be an independent nations they should be US States.

May God help them find a way in South America. The USA has many issues that we need to address to progress our government systems. This is a distraction from a much greater problem in this nation because China is far advanced economically. It’s a whole new world over there whiles this country is pledge with the effects or racism and classism. Eventually there will be no middle class. It will be the Elites and the poor no room or opportunity for nothing in between. Racism must stop in order to combat classism. Immigration entitlement is a direct result of the efforts to oppress black Americans by moving them in order to keep us out along with every other major issue America is facing currently. Racism will be the demise of this country. The amount of energy and resources used for anti black racism has pretty much bankrupted this country. Just think about all of the black inventors, intellectuals, and dreamers killed or suppressed whom could have been more of an economical difference in this country to help make it a beautiful place…. Crazy work

My lord ….why people don’t understand about rules . Did everyone are forgetting about 911 !?!?? Do the right thing for better future nature.

This is addressed mainly to the ugly Indian: My generation came to the racist west and built a golden reputation. We worked hard, assimilated, paid our taxes, and obeyed the laws. We were humble. We celebrated our native cultures within the confines of our communities. While it was frustrating to be invisible in white culture, we never sought to conquer them with our culture. We were ethical to the hilt. Our generations were poor -- yet we struggled to help others in India and in the west. We were NEVER on the dole. Personally I think it is rude to enter a nation (in the west or anywhere in the world) with naked opportunism. Speaking for myself -- despite neocolonialism, I admired western civilization, especially its older forms. \n \nBut the ugly Indian who comes now is loud, brash, socially irresponsible, exploitative, money-hungry, opportunistic, and arrogant beyond belief (full of the hubris that comes from sudden new wealth). They look down on us who have been here a while. They are used to a servant-culture and look down on white working class people, as if they are servants. As for second generation Indians in the west, they can be racist towards us first generations. But the opposite is true as well. Indian newcomers see them as an alien species. Indians do tend to hire their own and stick to their own identities -- I do not mean the Indian identity, but their native state identities. All this feeds into the primary and secondary forms of western racism that are already simmering beneath the surface. This new genre of Indians is destroying the goodwill we have built. I have personally witnessed arrogant young Indian students cutting the line to reach the front desk. No manners, no ethics. As a first generation Indian immigrant I get annoyed. So why shouldn't native born westerners (who are already racist)? \n \nBut to complain about how they smell is rude beyond belief. This must stop.

God use president Trump \nTo close the borders stop criminals entering in US\nDemocrats are demon big mistake policy they're blind\nBiden and kamala are big mistake to opened the borders \nThey're divil policy

I hope the US government starts building permanent military bases along the borders. It will save resources and money. No more over using our National Guardsman.

Seeing this is so sick they need to use that all energy to take that their own government. Why don’t nobody in America speak Spanish to them all to let them know go back and fight for your own country. It shows the coward in them and they feel like we are weak and this is why they do these things. They also come over here and treat us the same way as humans and as US citizens why they use and live off of us.??

Its not just an employer issue though, these corporations see dollars, the rest of us see taxes, overflowing school,s lack of teachers, lack of translation supports, lack of hospital systems, lack of housing , food bank runs as wages cannot support cost of living, homelessness crime and drug use. Disruption of neighbourhoods with 10-15 people piling into suburban homes and messing it up. They should not be here until the foundations are set. What new infrastructure is planned by these departments and on whose bill? Is it started yet as constructions are 5 years out . There is literally no long term joint plan here , just hoard type mentality. A failure at all levels of join thinkng in this government. And now its gonna get worse.

If white people are so evil and racist, why do you insist on coming to live in our homes?\nindian immigration has destroyed this country, it will never be fixed. These ‘people’ behave like utter animals, destroying nature, poisoning the water, using beaches as bathrooms. They are extremely nepotistic and will only hire other indians and family, it’s next to impossible for young native born Canadians to get even basic level entry jobs if the person hiring is indian. \nindians have abused the goodwill of our citizens and our social assistance programs. For the first time in nearly a hundred years our local food banks had to shutter and turn people away because INDIANS were using it as a free grocery store when they had FULL TIME JOBS and brand new bmws, then they post videos on social media saying ‘how to get free food in canada’, while some poor emaciated bastard gets turned away. What makes it worse, a lot of these Indians, especially in the prairies, already have their groceries subsidized by federal government, and they STILL abuse the food bank. It’s not just food bank either, they all apply for welfare and immediately get assistance even though it takes months to get as a natural born citizen, and that’s even if you get it. I was shocked to find out the federal government was paying indians to move out of Ontario and BC into Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba because the coastal cities infrastructure was about to implode in certain areas. So they they told these people to move inland, and if they do and stay there for 18-24 months, they get $3300 dollars a month every month for that duration. My disability cheque, that I paid into for 40 years of hard work, comes out to 950 dollars a month. This is absurd. These people get literally everything handed to them, and STILL abuse the programs meant for those who are struggling. I have never in my life met such an arrogant and utterly dishonest and disgusting group of peoples in my life. This isn’t just one or two bad apples, this is happening in every city around here. They also get first dibs on any and all medical treatment and specialists. Many local residents who have already been on waiting lists for years to get treatment are getting bumped in order to accommodate the new invaders. It’s basically impossible to find a doctors or dentists office accepting new patients. ER rooms are full constantly of these people coming just for runny noses and coughs, clogging up the already strained healthcare system. The prairies hospitals (at least where I live) were barely holding together before this nonsense. Yet somehow, this is all just white people being racist huh? \nWell I’ll tell you what, I’m not white, my people were on this land long before anyone else can claim to be, and while I’ll admit there’s often still a lot of animosity between natives and whites, youd be quite surprised to see how many of us are in agreement towards the current behaviour of these people.

I agree that skilled immigration is the right thing to do \n\nStop asylum seekers , take students as they are needed to fuel local economy , however improve the criteria to qualify for a work visa after student \n\nPermanent residency to be only allowed if you are working in a niche job where you don’t find any Canadian is found for that job position.\n\nMy view is to reduce taxes on individuals , incorporations and also eastablish industries and remove unwanted regulations and allow to establish industries \n\nThis will boost employment and also use this opportunity to develop near shore for us based companies to help them find skilled resources in canada \n\nMany thoughts I am not an expert , but I love canada and canada deserve to be a world leader in everything

Quit using wheelchairs at US airports. The US is not required to give everyone a visa.
