All theatre and distractions. Whatever happened to the United Front to support Ukraine? ?

I stand behind my President. If Trump wants to make his point, I trust him to do the right thing. I will gladly pay whatever cost that comes with that point he is making.

Hmm What does Canada have that USA wants or needs ( Nothing) I say close the boarder's if you have the need to visit work whatever You need a Visa

Back in 2016, Trump introduced 25% tariffs on China 301-classification imports that severely damaged my business. For whatever reason, he then exempted the tariffs, but the public still assumed that they were in place. It was a perfect Trump win-win move to make the voters think that he was acting tough, while actually exempting the tariffs for us importers. Unfortunately, Biden got into office and immediately took away the exemptions and screwed us. I mention all of this in order to exemplify how nothing is as it seems when it comes to Trump. Sometimes you have to let this stuff play out before overreacting. I think that Canada made a mistake by overreacting so quickly. This will force Trump's hand to pursue the trade war, even if it was not his actual intention.

Whatever Mexico makes, we can make it better.

Trump’s tariffs (/geo-economic warfare)—and his desire to annex Canada and Greenland and seize back control of the Panama Canal—has got little to do with immigration or drugs coming into the US (whatever happened to Build the Wall?) especially in the case of Canada. It’s about debt and power, the former growing, the latter fading. Trump himself has said tariffs are a means to make America wealthy and to abolish income tax. It’s got to do with America living outside its means with massive deficits and ballooning debt, and rather than take responsibility for that, the US thinks others should pay (when US consumers will) for it to continue to live outside its means, while it cuts taxes largely to the benefit of the wealthy... \nRemember when Iraq invaded Kuwait, how it said it was because Kuwait (and the United Arab Emirates) caused a drop in oil prices with the overproduction of crude oil, thus impacting Iraq’s ability to pay its debts and recover from the Iran-Iraq war, but really it was about seizing Kuwait’s large oil reserves, canceling the debt it owed Kuwait, and expanding its power in the region… Sound similar?

Illegal Immigrants IN Whatever Colours ... Doctrines IN ID and Finger Printed To Live IN America. Not' ALL' Will Live By The Americans Laws ... Congress. Mayor. Presidential Status. Amen ?

Mind boggling to me that there are Americans defending this crap. Seeing as how I'm from a city that's been severely affected by the Venezuelan crisis I'm glad to see them go. I don't care where just as long as it's not here and especially not on my dime since they've done nothing more than mooch off of us Chicago taxpayers at the the of 1 Billion dollars over the last several years. Whatever their plan was inviting these people here, giving them free housing free food etc ended up backfiring which is why Chicago has groups called Black people for Trump and Latinos for Trump. What's kind of funny is they did it to themselves.

Be whatever you want, but don't make other people believe you.

Whatever you tell us about your introduction of how good that transgender the reality is thers only two gender , it Men and a woman

Is it not so that every country in the world will deport illegal people in their country? What should be so different with the US. If you want to work, study or whatever in whatever country in the world you can ask that country if you can...normal like applecake.

Sadly their is only one way to stop this and that means whatever force is necessary. This is extremely dangerous to our nation as we have already had one 9/11 to many and this will lead to another.

WHY HAS AMERICANS ENABLE THIS FOR YEARS?! You are your own biggest problem then you complain there is no job, pay is less and housing is high. Of course it’s going to be for you when these illegals get paid peanuts and take whatever jobs they can get and thousands of them need housing who’s chances are they taking for places to rent you think? What is rest skyrocketing and that affects the housing price u buy. First protect your borders don’t give False hope to these ppl coz they are fools who will make the long trip thinking they are in the promised land once they cross the boarder ??‍♀️??‍♀️??‍♀️

We each have our little flickers of time here... No one else will ever know much, if any, of what it is like to be who we are, and for the most part no one will ever really care. Our life is ultimately our life, and so long as we are not harming others in the process we must create a life of our own meaning, determining our own objects of importance and committing to their pursuance. Throughout our life we are faced with serious decisions about what we believe, who we are, and what we do, and mostly none of it is self evident. If we look we can always find a reason to regret any decision we make, move or stay, agree or disagree, take the job or quit, marry or divorce, live one path or another... In all cases whatever the choice may be, we will only know the outcome of the one we take, and none we take will ever ultimately resolve the uncertainty of life. However, perhaps it is less about getting a potential course of life right, and more about attempting to do so with an effort of self honesty and virtue. To live a life that can be looked back on with the knowledge that some of our decisions were wrong in their effects, but right in their intention of not selling ourselves short. Ultimately no matter what we do or say or believe, there will always be a great many who disagree, or judge, or become upset by our decisions. It is of essential importance that we ensure that among those people, we are not one of them.

What choice is there illegal Criminals means Illegal Criminals needs deportations whatever the cost. There is 7000 illegal Criminals in America Most of them were transported by Drug Cartels they are murderers, paedophiles, terrorists ,kidnappers ,sadistic and violent. American people had to suffer in their hands if Trump dont get rid of them

Funny how, you ban the best-possible immigrants you can have. They would even ignore the economic performance of these immigrants. The west has a habit of doing things upside down. Whatever is happening in Canada should not be blamed on the entire Indian-origin diaspora. It should be placed on Trudeau and JS's favorite migrants.

“Irregular migration” is such a BS term. Whatever country uses that term should be afraid of who resides in their country

Since large scale war is becoming increasingly likely in the next several years, purging the military now is CRAZY (whether it is due to politics, lack of support for Trump, transgender, vaccines, or whatever). If they are already trained & performing well, we should keep them.\n\nStalin made the same mistake before WW2, and it made the Soviet military much weaker in the early part of the war.\n\nBut if these people are forced to leave, i hope they all get the last laugh by getting contractor jobs for double or triple pay. ?

They are just going to come here and wave their flag. Anyone who comes here their national alliance is to America. The way you get here is the way you keep marching. Forward with your old country behind you, not carrying it on your shoulders with pride. We have some Americans we can send with you!!!! There should be some kind of mass moving out since trump won. Politics ????? now the blue side or left side whatever it's called. They are trying to get people to swear in open court not to do the exact same things they have been doing. ??????

Kind of out of touch with reality. In the next decade there’s gonna be people transferring into Furrys. Trans are going to be nothing in comparison. We should let anyone do whatever we want that’s what being an American should be being free. If you wanna go serve the country you should be able to go. Serve the country as long as you fit enough to do it and mentally able to do it.

so let's pose a question to all those who seem to just hate the LGBTQIA+ community for whatever their reasons are....if someone who happens to be transgender saves your life, saves the life of one of their team members or perhaps leads an OP to a successful outcome, would you say that they were unqualified after the fact ? would you say that now as the regulations are being changed that they were never qualified to have performed those duties in the past ?? I've said this before, when you're downrange you don't give a damn if someone has a taco or a hotdog in their lunchbox, all that matters is that they've got your six and are willing to complete the directive as ordered. Every single one of you haters needs to realize that so many LGBTQIA+ service members have dedicated their efforts to keeping your asses safe in this country since the inception of the uniformed services were established. Should they not have done so ? Why does who they love, have sex with or how they dress actually matter to you as long as you're still able to go out and feed your fat ass an all American Cheeseburger under the watchful eye of the American Flag ?! And at the end of the day, all they ask is to be able to serve their country with dignity. It's disgusting that so many of y'all simply hate other folks this way and try to diminish the service of the LGBTQIA+ community.

No need to make up a story about how cold it gets in Canada. It's nowhere near what you think and indicated like as if you were trying to chase people away from there. Get it right, don't just make up whatever you're trying to do to chase people away and then you pump up the good ol USA. Your narrator is exaggerating along with his wavering voice up and down on who's best.

Choose trans ....but don't go into military as a man and quickly tell your commander to pay for whatever it takes to make you a woman....do it before you enter and then NO ONE CARES.....unless that's what it's all about

If you're too busy being a sicko transitioning into whatever disgusting shitz you believe will fly out of your azz you don't need to be trying to be in the military.

Hey when my grandpa (my mom’s dad) who served our military during Vietnam which he was drafted. He saw men of all walks of life even black guys go over there fight and come home in rough shape or worse. He told me one time he while he was on the army base where he was based at and he saw a black man who at the time whites and blacks were still trying to get there acts together. Was flown in from Nam on a medivac with machine gun holes ripped right through his chest and was in bad shape my grandpa said they immediately rushed him to emergency surgery and my grandpa asked the surgeon who worked on him. “Hey did that color boy make it,” the guy said “it was touch and go there for a while but he pulled through but he was that close to d¥ing.” So if any man woman whatever that serves our military is willing to fight and lay down their l!fe for our country/freedom deserves to wear that uniform and serve with honor and pride.

Thank you for your service. Now , enjoy the rest of your life outside navy.. what can you do if it’s forbidden now.. i do believe the gov’t knows what are they doing and that whatever it is , it is for the good of it’s citizen and the republic..

She's not a female she's a male. can change whatever, but still.. argue with science..

They are a liability in the field, doesn't matter if they want to serve or not. Medication they need to be whatever they feel they are, is not available in the middle of a war. If you have controllable asthma you can't serve, it's a liability of both not getting the meds you need and they chance you have an episode and cause your fire team to fail because you are not medically fit for duty

?. ????. By Karen. Or Bob. Or whatever the fuck you call yourself. Nice ADAMS APPLE btw.

Where is your military bearing? You are NOT fit to serve because you are a MALE and not a Female. So those under you will not respect you. Therefore, you can do whatever you want in the CIVILIAN world but you have no business in the Military.

She/he/it/him/her, whatever is the exception not the rule!

All of those who said pull them out of the Army ,Navy, Marines, whatever are you going to want to go in there place, he did say he's going to build the Army up, that means he's going to start drafting people in the army.

Back in the 80's, it was called professionalism. When you go to work, you don't wear a monkey suit, a bikini, or dress like the opposite sex. On your own time in your own home you can be, well, whatever.

Whatever Donald Trump does is OK with America.

Call yourself whatever the hell you want and dress however the hell you want on your time. Dress code regulations will be enforced when you are on shift. \n\n^ All that needs to be done to return to sanity and reality.

First let me say that I fully support anyone who is fully physically capable of doing whatever job that they are either enlisted to do or has been assigned to do within the military. \n\nIn a time where special forces doesn't mean bulked up freakishly high endurance or specific physical requirements are necessary.\nSpecial ops nowadays is also about mental acumen and ability to assess the entire picture and it is absolutely well known that certain physical factors are required to be on the front lines but to remove a very capable force that is a force multiplier in a time where it's absolutely needed and cannot be replaced quickly or even adequately is doing a massive disservice to our military and the citizens of this country just for the sake of a small group of individuals with small minds that couldn't step into that vacant position and adequately fill it with the same caliber of talent regardless of how they identify themselves!\nBeing the most lethal fighting military requires many talents and to remove those talents from the soldiers they support is absolutely hurting our military in ways that will take decades to rectify!\nThat soldier on the ground calling in drone strikes to get his or her soldiers out of the danger isn't going to care if they are trans or identify as LGBTQ only that they are able to safeguard their soldiers in whatever way they have been trained to do..\nOur military needs to be the most diverse in order to be the most lethal in the most diverse situations throughout the worlds stages!

I wonder who paid for her transition? oh wait that would be our tax dollars! People wanting to be in military are being rejected for various health issues. Can't go to battle on the front line in some other Country when you require medication on a regular basis, it may not be available for weeks or even months. So do we pull people off the battle field and send them home because for whatever reason they can't get their meds? That's why it isn't acceptable

32% of the U.S. military are minorities. 17% are female. Transgender, .7%. (2022 numbers. Best I could find.) Math says that is half of our forces. Including Puerto Ricans & Indigenous. None of Trump’s family line have ever served this country. Thank whatever you hold dear that so many who still don’t get adequate representation or respect still believe in the idea of this nation to put their lives on the line to protect it. Thank you to EVERY service member for your service. You are all truly the best.

Hello people hello world this is the Mississippi boy let me be very clear every black person minority person transgenders people that are in military they ought to resign just quit in the army armed forces whatever they are in position that they have taken in this country they do not need to work up under this administration to protect this country especially if you are black and minorities native Americans and other races here working and trying to protect this country they all should resign and quit and let Donald Trump send his family members and friends and these white privilege white supremacist people to war and let them defend this country not us as poor People's and these people don't care nothing about us but we will go out here and lose our life for protecting these white supremacist here in this country it's time to wake up America it's time to wake up people

Who else immediately thought of Quagmire's father while interviewing this Navy pilot who was a transgender woman a man or whatever the hell it is

Stop them whatever it takes

Makes no sense - fight to get in when they KNOW they will be kicked out. Whatever they are fleeing, this is madness.

You’re forgetting to report that Colombian President (or whatever) has changed his mind and now accepting his citizens after tariff threats ??

Can we not talk about how enormously expensive these military flights are compared to civilian charter flights? Can we talk about how Trump likely knew Colombia would protest a US military plane just doing whatever it wants in its airspace?? Do your damn job!!!

I agree, why don't they rise against their own nations as a free people and take back their countries!!! They obviouslt have desires to elevate their lives in some way, we americans had to fight for our country and it wasn't exactlt easy, these people are weak and pathetic for running away from their problems only to bring our country more problems that we can't deal with ourselves, I say we just hand them all a surplus of guns and a campaign plan to take back their own country lol, as much as I hate seeing any human suffer aside from rapists and murderers and child sex abusers, we in America have too many problems ourselves, and I was always told if you can't fix yourself, or love yourself how can you ever hope to be and good for anyone else, and that rings so true with everything, these people need to stand on their own 2 feet and fight against whatever tyranny they have and become a free people, I know if they did that someday they would probably succeed, and perhaos if they did start fighting for their freedom and trying to take back their country, we Americans might help them succeed in those endeavors some way or another...Who knows, these people need to rush their own governments and plead with them or overtake them, they can bum rush our borders I see no reason why they're not capable of doing the same in their own country, massive numbers beats out a shaggy old military and corrupt government any day everytime, yes many lives lost, but the sounds of trumpets for victort will ring out loudly on the end, and the people can finally have the lives and country they desire, we ain't it right now folks so turn back around and take all this border crossing energy to fight against your own establishments

I was born and raised in America on 56 years old and I can't even get an apartment and hear they're giving these immigrants 68,000 and 6 months to live on just handed to them for free. And I can't even get my tax refund that they owe me from 2018 $5,000 because I have to prove that it's me and they're giving me such a hard time they keep saying no it's not you answer these questions wrong. Whatever freaking Biden Harris just destroyed this country in 4 years

Fun fact: Columbia is where we get a major chunk of our coffee from, so now our coffee, our fuel for working Americans will get more expensive if this is a prolonged tariff! We're just hurting ourselves with these outrageous tariffs because all of these countries (even Columbia) can just sell the supply of whatever the US is putting a tariff on to other countries like in Europe or Asia, or could just put retaliatory tariffs on us, leading to a possible trade war over FUCKING COFFEE. Our 2 party political system sucks harder than the jet engines of those planes that got denied.

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

I'm an Indian american immigrant stood in line for over a decade to get USC. We as a country can give up bananas and whatever else comes from these countries, there is enough food here to survive etc, it is matter of month or so before the country realizes they can not survive but USA needs to be cleaned up from illegal immigrants period.

They are invaded our country.please do whatever measures necessary to protect the boaders. They have no respect. They showed the shit in their counrty. Cowards an shameless
