murder Member	Sun Jan 26 13:29:34 Trump issuing ‘emergency 25% tariffs’ against Colombia after country turned back deportation flights President Donald Trump is issuing tariffs on Colombia after two repatriation flights of undocumented migrants were not allowed to land in Colombia, according to a Sunday post from the president on his Truth Social network. It’s the first retaliatory action the Trump administration has taken against another country over immigration issues. Trump said he enacted a 25% tariff on all goods coming into the US from Colombia, which will be raised to 50% in one week. Colombian President Gustavo Petro said Sunday that he is halting US deportation flights, stating the US “can’t treat Colombian migrants like criminals.” According to a flight tracker, two US military flights bound for Colombia were turned back overnight after Petro publicly declared that he was denying entry to American planes carrying Colombian migrants. Trump condemned Petro’s actions as a threat to US national security and public safety, asserting that Colombia’s denial of the flights violated international obligations to accept criminals being repatriated. http://www...deportation-flights/index.html
Rugian Member	Sun Jan 26 14:00:43 Probably should have accepted THEIR OWN FUCKING CITIZENS back. The US is absolutely in the right on this one.
murder Member	Sun Jan 26 14:30:38 Assuming the people being deported are actually Colombians ... yeah. -
Rugian Member	Sun Jan 26 14:32:00 ^ doesn't sound like that was the objection: "Colombian President Gustavo Petro said Sunday that he is halting US deportation flights, stating the US “can’t treat Colombian migrants like criminals.”" Yes we fucking can treat them like criminals; as a sovereign nation we have the right to determine how one can legally enter our country. This fucking cunt.
Rugian Member	Sun Jan 26 14:32:32 To no one's surprise, the president of Columbia is a leftist.
Fat Fag Member	Sun Jan 26 14:43:38 50% on cocaine, too?
murder Member	Sun Jan 26 14:50:19 I suppose the Marines could deliver them by amphibious landing ship. -
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Jan 26 14:58:17 he's embracing his gangster image, w/ this posted on his feed http://sta...766/small/8a809cb6273f9282.jpg ...as his networth grows by billions & for some reason illegally rush firing ~19 IG's (who watch for fraud & abuse) is a top priority
Rugian Member	Sun Jan 26 15:52:31 COLUMBIA BENDS THE KNEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ---- "Colombian president Gustavo Petro reportedly offered the use of his presidential plane to help repatriate deportees from the U.S. on Sunday, shortly after President Donald Trump threatened the country with retaliatory tariffs for having turned away two U.S. military aircraft carrying the deportees earlier in the day, according to CNN." http://www...-migrants-after-trump-threats/
Rugian Member	Sun Jan 26 15:52:55 Donald is living that absolute thug life I love it
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Jan 26 17:29:08 not sure it's much of a cave, he had been accepting migrants on normal (non-military) flights prior
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Jan 26 17:55:13 his complaint was not treating them w/ dignity (pretty sure it was not 'omg, you're so powerful, take my plane, take my wife, don't hurt me!')
Seb Member	Sun Jan 26 18:17:46 Yeah, it was basically making himself look a man of the people. I gather he's slapped 50% tariff on American goods in relation. China must be loving this - the US can blow up their entire trade network and China can move in. Russia has fucked itself and forced Europe to focus on shoring up its eastern flank rather than pulling Africa, central Asia and the middle East into its orbit. The US is burning its network of alliances and trade. China inherits the future by default without even needing to fight. It just has to be more steady and reliable than the US.
Sam Adams Member	Sun Jan 26 18:27:23 "According to a flight tracker, two US military flights bound for Colombia were turned back overnight after Petro publicly declared that he was denying entry to American planes carrying Colombian migrants." Lol what a fucking retard. He fucked with trump on like the 4th day? Hes asking for it. "It just has to be more steady and reliable than the US." Too bad for china they spent the last few years threatening to go to war with all their neighbors. They are almost as retarded as you.

Rugian Member	Mon Jan 27 07:05:10 "Trump, I don't really like travelling to the US. It's a bit boring, but I confess that there are some commendable things. I like going to the Black neighborhoods of Washington, where I saw a fight in the US capital between Blacks and Latinos with barricades, which seemed like nonsense to me, because they should join together. I confess that I like Walt Whitman and Paul Simon and Noam Chomsky and Miller. I confess that Sacco and Vanzetti, who have my blood, are memorable in the history of the USA and I follow them. They were murdered by labor leaders in the electric chair, by the fascists who are within the USA as well as within my country. I don't like your oil, Trump. It's going to wipe out the human species because of greed. Maybe one day, with a glass of whiskey that I accept, despite my gastritis, we can talk frankly about this, but it's difficult because you consider me part of an inferior race and I'm not, nor is any Colombian. So, if you know someone who is stubborn, that's me, period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and your arrogance, like they did with Allende. But I will die true to my principles, I resisted torture and I resist you. I don't want slavers next in Colombia, we already had many and we freed ourselves. What I want next in Colombia are lovers of freedom. If you can't join me, I'll go elsewhere. Colombia is the heart of the world, and you didn't understand that, this is the land of the yellow butterflies, of the beauty of Remedios, but also of the colonels like Aureliano Buendía, of which I am one, perhaps the last. You will kill me, but I will survive in my people, which lives, before yours, in the Americas. We are peoples of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea and of freedom. You don't like our freedom, okay. I don't shake hands with White slavers. I shake hands with the White libertarian heirs of Lincoln and the Black and White farm boys of the USA, at whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield, which I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from Covid. They are the United States, and before them I kneel, before no one else. Overthrow me, Mr. President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Colombia now stops looking north, it looks at the world. Our blood comes from the blood of the Caliphate of Cordoba, the civilization of that time, of the Roman Latins of the Mediterranean, the civilization of that time, who founded the republic, democracy in Athens; our blood comes from the Black resistance fighters turned into slaves by you. Colombia is the first free territory of America, before Washington, [before] of all America, and I take refuge in its African songs. My land is made up of goldsmiths who worked in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs and of the first artists in the world in Chiribiquete. You will never rule us. You're opposed to the warrior who rode our lands, shouting freedom, whose name is (Simon) Bolívar. Our people are somewhat fearful, somewhat timid, they are naive and kind, loving, but they will know how to win the Panama Canal, which you took from us with violence. Two hundred heroes from all of Latin America lie in Bocas del Toro, today's Panama, formerly Colombia, which you murdered. I raise a flag and as (Jorge Eliecer) Gaitán said, even if it remains alone, it will continue to be raised with the Latin American dignity that is the dignity of America, which your great-grandfather did not know, and mine did, Mr. President, an immigrant in the USA. Your blockade does not scare me, because Colombia, besides being the country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know that you love beauty as I do, do not disrespect it and it will give its sweetness to you. FROM TODAY ON, COLOMBIA IS OPEN TO THE ENTIRE WORLD, WITH OPEN ARMS, WE ARE BUILDERS OF FREEDOM, LIFE AND HUMANITY. I am informed that you impose a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States, and I do the same. Let our people plant corn that was discovered in Colombia and feed the world." http://x.com/petrogustavo/status/1883624818811236502
Rugian Member	Mon Jan 27 07:05:59 Sadly, Trump has officially lost his title of World Leader With The Most Unhinged Social Media Account. :(
murder Member	Mon Jan 27 07:27:18 The guy was ready to give his life to make sure that the deported immigrants weren't returned to Colombia on military planes. -

Interesting Facts Member	Mon Jan 27 11:52:57 http://www...colombia-ecuador-and-venezuela DHS Conducts Removal Flights to Central America, Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela Release Date: December 13, 2023 In fiscal year 2022, ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations conducted 72,177 removals to more than 150 countries worldwide.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Jan 27 12:33:09 the reporting was pretty bad... it wasn't about accepting them, just manner of how they were sent however, after Trump's heaps of threats (went beyond tariffs), telenovela guy seems to have fully caved (+ has magats mocking him) ...so we'll just have a simmering hatred now from Colombians
obaminated Member	Mon Jan 27 12:49:47 This thread. The way tws opinion kept swinging depending on trump. Guys can we never address tw and treat him as the resident retard? Just isolate him and as real world events change watch him naturally evolve into new opinions. It's hilarious.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Jan 27 15:26:01 where did my opinion change
tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Jan 27 15:31:10 ...& if people want retard evidence, they can review your FBI/laptop/Facebook argument where your only evidence specifically disproves your own claim, plus you continue to stick to it
obaminated Member	Mon Jan 27 15:50:35 Zuck has stated the fbi told him and other tech people the the hunter biden laptop story was Russian disinformation when the fbi knew it was true. You are fucking retarded.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Jan 27 16:36:40 your own link showed Zuck specifically saying they didn't do that (but no need to trash this thread w/ your idiocy on that topic)
Average Ameriacn Member	Mon Jan 27 17:00:50 She should be on the next plane!!!! http://the...-deportations-southern-border/ A video showing Selena Gomez sobbing while saying “All my people are getting attacked” with an image of the Mexican flag appears to have been deleted from her social media page amid the new Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. The Instagram clip of the crying “Only Murders in the Building” star was reportedly posted Monday before being deleted. In the video, Gomez was seen wiping away tears as her voice breaks. “I just want to say that I’m so sorry. All my people are getting attacked. The children. I don’t understand,” the 32-year-old Emmy Award-nominated actor said, with an image of the Mexican flag on the screen. “I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise,” Gomez added. The video posted for Gomez’s more than 420 million followers on Instagram comes alongside President Trump’s ramped-up efforts on deportation and at the southern border. Last week, Trump ordered active-duty troops to the border to bolster federal, state and local law enforcers to deal with migrants whom he has described as “invading” the U.S. Trump has also moved to halt refugee and migrant parole programs and has reportedly given immigration officers daily arrest quotas to meet. He sought to end birthright citizenship for children whose parents are in the country without legal status, but that executive order has been blocked by the courts. In 2019, Gomez penned an op-ed for Time magazine reflecting on how many of her family members entered the United States from Mexico starting in the 1970s. Immigration, she wrote in the piece, “goes beyond politics” and “is a human issue.” After deleting her Monday video, she commented, “Apparently it’s not ok to show empathy for people.”
