Crossing the border doesn’t make you a criminal, it’s just a civil offense. This was never about getting rid of the “criminals”, because if it was like that then why did you elect one as a president?

Bang bang! Lot cheaper for us Americans. All races because I know some of you idiots will question that. This is A problem FOR ALL US AMERICANS and ITS BS. Never going to get better if we all don't work together

My dude you just said that health care is never discussed in american politics. \n\nAlso, all these people saying that health care in Canada takes years and years for things that take weeks in the US are typically full of it. Yeah. Some provinces that shall remain nameless like to break contracts with health care professionals, resulting in shortages of certain types of workers. \n\nI live in remote northish parts of my province (not NWT, Yukon, or Nunavut), and 6 years ago I was diagnosed w/ lymphoma. They had me set up to do chemotherapy treatment within 2 weeks. They wanted me to start that weekend, but I needed the time to put my work in order for me to be gone for an extended period, get applications set up for EI/Healthcare claims, and figure out who in my family I wanted to share the information with. \n\nIn Canada you end up waiting for elective surgeries and treatments, because they aren't critical by virtue of being elective. That's about it. If you need an elective and have 10K in your pocket not doing anything, go ahead and go to the states.

I pray the USA can get rid of all illegal aliens out of our country. In the military, I was in different countries, so I had the opportunity to travel. Guess what I always had to show my passport and declare how long I would be in the country. Never once did I try to break their laws. When you are breaking the law, you should have consequences!

AM GONNA MAKE IT SIMPLE FOR DEMS TO UNDERSTAND. LGBTQ PEOPLE ACCOUNT FOR LESS THAN 1 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION HOW CAN THAT 1 PERCENT GET YOU A WIN IN AN ELECTION. PEOPLE DONT WANT THIS SHIT IN THEIR LIVES AND DONT WANT THEIR KIDS LEARNING THIS IT WILL NEVER WORK. JUST PUTTING THIS ON YOUR SHOW YOU HAVE LOST MORE OF THE 99PERCENT OF THE POPULATION OF VIEWERS. THE DEMS HAVE BEEN INFILTRATED AND NOW HAVE PEOPLE RUNNING YOUR SHOW THAT SUPPORT THIS CRAP. YOUS WONT WIN ANOTHER ELECTION FOR A HUNDRED YEARS TILL YOUS GET RID OF THIS CRAP.

WoW America are you really going to throw these soldier's under the bus? They put in some serious hard work to get where they are. Most of us will never reach this lvl of achievements.

President Trump is correct 100% and all CNN has is its own predictable opinions. The dems favorite rush to lib courts will not work either. The dems should have never pushed this onto our military. Biden wasted millions on this so called medically necessary surgery. What gets me though is some church people and catholics and muslims still vote dem.

I hate Trump and everything he stands for but transgenders serving openly are contrary to the principle of good order and discipline. No matter what people think transgenders are not respected by their subordinates and there has to be respect to be an effective leader. In this man's case he flies as a crew of 1 and possibly 2 so he doesn't require respect from his subordinates but a frontline combat officer leading a company would get zero respect and would probably get fragged. The standards have to be the same across all branches and all jobs and that's not possible. The military is mostly populated with southern and mid western men and they will never accept this so as a veteran I support this move to ban them. I would also like to see the standards restored in regards to fat heterosexuals too. There's nothing that says lack of discipline like a fat soldier whose buttons on his BDU shirt are about to pop and they can't see their toes.

On one hand i get it from a mentally fit state. One the other hand if a trans wants to die for his or her country why prevent em. Never understood why whites were so against blacks joining the army as well. When it would mean less white soldiers being killed.

Yeah, uh, this WOKE nonsense is out of hand. It was getting to a point of no return. It is one of the reasons why he was elected. It will NEVER matter the makeup or what body parts are cut off. You were born a boy or girl. The end!

This is medically insane, Trump is choosing things with no scientific proof. In fact, science contradicts him. And many prefer to do harm to this people because of their beliefs, to people who are helping them by risking their lives for the country, and your life is a thing you never ever get back…

The left in this country is never going to get it

At the end of the day, this pizza delivery boy will perhaps either finish college, and get a good job, or may be start a small business. Whereas the white guy will get into the habit of abusing people, will not be able to have friends or hold on to jobs....hatred always brings in more hatred. This indian or pakistani guy, will never ever get over this abuse. He'll hate all whites or all people who eat pizzas..???

I live north of El Paso, due north in New Mexico. Don’t kid yourself, this crowd will get much worse. I live in a big town and you used to stop at a traffic light and they tried busting your window to grab your purse. Then, it was under Biden, they finally moved them into shelters, hotels, churches and paid them money (on debit cards) and gave them free medical care along with their free housing.\nEven then one young guy took his revolver in to rob the waitresses of their tips as a pizza place was closing. The owner came out to see what was happening. The guy shot him point blank 9 times. He was arrested but we never knew what happened. In this blue state, I doubt he is even in jail now. Do you really think that those coming in don’t expect all the hand outs? We can’t just keep being so nice, there is going to have to be physical consequences.

They'll get off the plane, and go right back to the US and try again. \nIn fact. MORE will now attempt it seeing that if they get caught, they'll simply get a free plane ride home. \nHell, if I was one of them, I'd be doing it as well!! This is good news for illegals. \nAnd just look at the number of people in here supporting this ridiculous strategy from Trump. \nLol, you idiots are dumb as dirt to think this will help stop illegals coming into your country. \nIt's going to INCREASE it. And it will cost you millions every year without end. \nLive and never learn.

My husband is from Turkey we've been going through the Immigration process for years it's not easy but we're doing it. I see my husband get up and work hard everyday. He's never gotten a handout so to see this is frustrating to the both of us!!!!!

I’m a Canadian I will never live in the USA I love my country we don’t have to worry about getting sick and having to mortgage our house to afford it. So no I would never ever live there. Besides that I can’t stand your president and his yes boys or his nazi musk

What do you expect, when you see Indians going abroad on tourist visa, and then overstaying and doing cheap labour. Indian tourists go to developed countries with zero civic sense, complete ignorance of the local culture and norms, the people there will obviously feel disgusted, 5th largest economy my ass. Look at the gdp per capita dear Palki. Nationalistic pride is good, but when you have nothing to show for it, empty pride doesn’t get you anywhere. Most people try to go in as tourists and never come back, then how do you expect them to give visas to Indians.

I've never understood their entitlement and brazen law breakers.\nWhen I was growing up, I remember Germans getting shot for leaving and the Iron Curtain would kill you for crossing

We'll see disruption like this because others never did their job It'll get worse before it gets better but that's just how it'll be The US must hold the line..

Labour market need? Just driving down wages with an influx of cheap labour. And driving up housing costs. The government should have never let it get to this point.

*CNN how many billions of dollars did you lose last year* ?? It's because you report news stories like this LIES and misreporting, and fake news, and you have the most obnoxious news anchors.....we get our real news from YouTube now never from CNN anymore

Colombia has never had a problem with the U.S. deporting Colombians before, why did they refuse this time?\n\nWhat's different this time?\nDid the rules/procedures/laws not get followed and agreed to this time?\n\nTELL ME THE WHOLE STORY?

I can't believe that so many young children can be seen here! That's such a dangerous situation for parents to put them in! Apply for citizenship the right way so you can bring your family safely! Then, when your family is here with proper documentation, you'll be able to raise them in security without fear of deportation. I hate to see children going through this. They're at the mercy of their parents' judgement & things could be so much better for them if they weren't dragged through traumatic situations like this, just so their parents can cut corners. Why in the world can't you apply for citizenship the proper way? If your criminal record is the reason that you can't, well that's on you. If there are records of you pulling crap like this, you'll probably never be able to get here the proper way. Instead of choosing to be an actual American citizen, you'd rather choose to live your life as a fugitive & force your kids to live that way too? Give your family a real chance here by following the proper process to become citizens. You'll get a very different reception here.

You’re so slow. By the time you posted this the Columbia president caved. Absolutely a beast moment by president Trump . Let me see the news story from cnn talking how amazing this reversal was. president Trump is changing things and getting this national moving . If you continue to bash him and not reporting honestly on the amazing turn around president Trump has preformed and his approval rating your lost. CNN will never recover as a news outlet. Moving to streaming won’t even help you.

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

It’s funny how US citizens don’t realize that they the only ones in the world that abuses of terms as “migrants” “illegals” “aliens” “border” The never talk in terms of humans of humanity…. They think humanitarian immigration crisis it’s only going on there. ….Otherwise the rest of the world doesn’t and is super open for diversity and no flags, how crazy ideological it has to be? But i get it on a place where there is literally a national flag in every 50 mts

Go home and Demand your leaders back home to support your family rights freedom protection food shelter school and jobs the same way you all voted for charges here do the same back home stop running from your country and fight to build it to be the greatest country for yourself and you will never have to go through this in your life again man will fail you but God will never forsake you it's a sign time run out you all got court in the change you all voted for against your self this is f up why did you all vote for trump knowing he's a man to his word whether he's right or wrong his going to get his way because you all give him the right to do what ever he wants to do with your life in God we continue to trust hallelujah amen ??

There is a basic question that has never been answered that I have heard or read..:::: How is it that all these people who are trying to get to the US , enduring all the hardships, reaching the border, only to be held up there and told no, or folks that have been here being picked up and sent back, all this becomes OUR FAULT ???? I’m all for folks coming to the US, but going thru channels to do it, yet the reasons the left home, scone the fault of the US..:. HOW ????

Old incorrect news. Why would anybody listen to CNN. They never get anything correct.

How can our country let him get away with this Bull $###? We have never had a president to do anything like this. I can’t believe he is president!

CNN spreading their fearmongering again. Oh no avacados and now bananas and coffee gonna be more expensive. We get those items from other compliant countries also.\n\nWe need to get these people out, they were never supposed to be here to begin with. These are not US citezens nor are they legal residents, it is the resposibility of their home countries to take them back. If the don't comply with our immigration laws then all should be denied access and a travel ban to and from their countries should be enstated.

No offense, since I don’t know if you guys drink coffee or not, but You do realize other countries export to the US. Have never heard of Guatemalan, Brazil, Peru, Marrocan, Ethiopia, Belgium, Costa Rican coffee? Arab countries etc. They all make great coffee. Coffee is not only from Colombia. There’s so various countries producing great coffee .\n\nThey all export coffee to the US. Unless you ONLY like Colombian coffee this shouldn’t be a problem. I’m sure this benefits other countries to expand. Each with distinct flavors and aromas. \n\nStarbucks imports coffee from over 30 different countries from Latin America, Africa, Middle East. \n\nIt’s like if Trump puts a 25% tariff on French wine. I love my French wine and it would suck. But I still love my Italian and Washington State wine.\n\nBananas like mention also come from other countries as well like Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras etc. \nBasically other countries exist that benefit from this. The only problem I could see is they can’t produce enough . Which I doubt. And I’m sure African countries or other countries can under cut prices if others try to inflate prices just to get market share in the US. \n\nAlthough, coffee prices are not only determined by supply and demand. Country of origin and brand also plays a role. Like I said it’s like wine. I love my cheap Washington State Merlots and my Italian Chianti, but people still buy over price California and French wine .

The American dream for hard workers has never ceased. Just enter the country legally. All this charade gets you nowhere.

The democrats sure made a big mess for the republicans to clean up again. Get rid of the democrat party and we can make America great again. Never forget what they did to Americans.

They think they are entitled to free money, housing etc you never paid a dime into the system .Donald Trump will stop this big time .I'm british and sadly still live in the uk voting trump into power was a very smart move by the American people .America first American people first if your foreign and don't like it get out and don't come back I so wish we could do this in the uk.if reform get in in 2029 we will god willing

only get Indians as expat workers never give them a citizenship

My lord ….why people don’t understand about rules . Did everyone are forgetting about 911 !?!?? Do the right thing for better future nature. But !?The problem this society social media, make people jealous about life things, materials things, make people do bad things . For that !? We are destroying the world ? . I remember when the dollar was less than 2 reais, Brazilian currency . The time was the President George W. Bush family . I never forget the tragedy on the 911 . I remember The US , send Military to find the responsible the 911 , lots money was involved to support the soldiers .Lots country the time was not involved in the 911 . But did get the chance pays all the bills too “ because the money was going down quickly , gave one good opportunity to payback he United States money ?. Then thought The Americans never get back after, 911 !? Americans are amazing people, because they’re responsible pay for their own taxes , to support the country . Resume :::::::1= pays the bills to the United States of America, so the people from another country don’t live , to come to America ??. 2= make the money universal : if don’t “ the war will getting worse . The president the United States of America , Trump deserves respect ?? if you don’t . Bad times come true , to kip the American save . So much things to do with this planet ?, but people’s always want burn ? petroleum, for not being productive enough to care about the environment planet ?. We must use more Electric ⚡️ cars , to have better chance future rainy . ?

This was an invasion for 4 years.... we have probably 15 million we'll never get rid of

Lived in Canada for almost 40 years. Worked in USA for 5 years 25 years ago. I did make a lot more money in USA then, luckily, I was in my 20s and almost never seen a doctor in my 5 years in the USA. \nThank God I didn't get into any accident while there. \n\nIn general, I observed many people in the USA are not good neighbors. Simple observation, ex you drive and merge into a lane in a busy SF Bay Highway you need to fight hard to get into a lane. In BC, Canada, merging lanes is very orderly, each vehicle takes turn merging into a lane one entering from one lane and then another vehicle from another lane with respect and consideration. \nIn the USA, I think it is this brutal mentality translates into policy in health care and education, you are not responsible to help your community in any way and take while you can for yourself.

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.

As an NRI for a decade in Germany, I can assure you that not a single person in the developed western world looks at India with a nicer opinion. They think of it as a necessary baggage. They will only allow Visa on Arrival/E-Visa for people whom they respect and would like to be in the country. While I do not want to get into how some Indians behave when they are on their EU trip, Indians in India do not behave well too. This involves hygiene, roads, infrastructure, intelligence, corruption, etc. Indians tend to look at the Indian flag with tears in their eyes while listening to A.R. Rahman’s “Vande Mataram” with Bharat Bala’s video. But the reality in the western world is this: India is a loud, messy, unhygienic, poorly organized country filled with corruption and crime everywhere. Now, why would a well-developed country open their doors to potentially unruly 1.4 billion people? The reason for visa rejection is that a lot of them simply apply for a tourist visa and never leave. If someone really needs to travel, they will have the money and the motivation to apply multiple times. Hence, the first check with multiple layers of bureaucracy.

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.

You guys needed Trump to step on your toes to get this issue and problem solved in this country. Look where it's going. Canada has never been like this. Thanks Trudeau for screwing it up

I’m an Indian passport holder living abroad due to personal reasons. I’m eligible for the citizenship of a country that most people would dream to get but I do not like to apply for the same because then I would have to renounce my Indian citizenship (India does not allow dual citizenship). Indians themselves are responsible for visa rejections because most of our people (not all) go under the disguise of tourists with the intention to settle in that country. What kind of treatment would you expect then? I came legally and despite never compromising with my cultural values, I have always felt welcomed in the country that I live in. It’s about how you present yourself in the country that you live in. People are good everywhere in this world.

I was in the Missouri when i got sick. I drove home and was diagnosed with a brainstem tumour. 10 hr surgery, 4 surgerical teams, icu, wks hospitalization. Months of rehab and homecare. The school even arranged a cab to take my 5 yr old to school. I have seen bills for pts who didn't make it home and had to have surgery in the US before being repatriated back to the icu i worked. It was an eye opener to see what they were charged for a box of kleenex, a catheter, an iv bag etc. I would have lost everything if i had to have surgery in the US. \nMy sister is currently in hosp in the US, and she is getting good care. I drove down last time she was in, and i was impressed by the lovely large CCU bay, but, hey patients are paying for it. She had a fancy postop CABG pillow to splint her chest when she had to coughed. It had a cute surgical heart on it. I am sure it cost $$. In Canada, we give our pts a regular pillow, some iv morphine and tlc when it hurts when they cough, no fancy cartoon pillow, but no bill either lol. She's a senior on medicaid so she's not going into massive debt or dying in her home to avoid going to the hospital.\n \nI have been travelling to the states since 1976 as a young child. I love the states, I have a lot of family there. My dad lived there until his death. My great grandma immigrated and died in Montana. I have never had a negative experience there in over 49 yrs, other than the old lady backed into my parked suv in the hobby lobby lol parking lot l\n\nA big plus in Canada, is paid Maternity/ paternity leaves and also caregiver leave. Your mom has a stroke or child has cancer you can take time off work to care for them with partial pay and not worry about losing your job

Asta la vista ! \nOh dear never mind , get a dinghy a paddel to the uk
