"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, ". Trump submits new last line: " and we will arrest them with ICE troopers and send them back".
No, not quite yet. #1 Colombia wants to use the country's presidential plane to return them, not military flights. #2 Colombia's US ambassador and another representative are on their way to Washington to work out the details.
Not sure that they did. WH may be spinning it. Colombia had only 2 restrictions: 1. not to return deportees in military craft onto their sovereign soil & 2.deportees not handcuffed & treated like criminals. They had no issues with deportees treated humanely on commercial craft. I think the WH caved.
...and Petro's resolute challenge of go ahead with the tariffs, we don't care and we will do same to you..and we will gladly sell corn to fed the world, didn't help the WH cause.
Bullies when pushed back whimper and embellish to mitigate their loss.
There is a saying as older than the Black Hills of Dakota

So I will observe and wait to see what old Father Time has in store for us all.
The economy is Trumps biggest vulnerability. It's usually any leader's biggest weakness. If folks are really serious about taking this guy down then boycott the Trump economy. I was all set to donate money to Colombia, and probably still will donate a bit. I'm also beefing up my savings.
I mean dude, this is like MAGA...y'all are so craven for a disaster (I get it, I want Trump to fail too) but it just looks desperate. Ur chomping at the bit each time. You will never get trump voters to say "omg I made a mistake u were right"..we gotta save our country by better policies
I was referring to u...this was another win for Trump...actually it may not have been, but he did what Democrats, specifically Biden, were totally unable to do. Sell their wins
All he asked for was dignity for his people, I hope he got it. At the end of the day, he dragged Trump hard and it was fucking awesome. He does not respect Trump, I can tell you that!
Which is something that #GoD47 would never do: to wit, his visit to L.A. wildfire areas.
He was there, but not COMFORTABLE.
Indeed, President @GustavoPetro hit USA back hard with 50%, not pussyfooting.
Lesson for @justintrudeauu.bsky.social & Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo.
Where was the diplomatic work of Marco Rubio to forestall this in the first place? Because Trump doesn’t do diplomacy. He bullies. No working with Colombia to prepare for this. One more country hostile to us/distrustful of us now. No tariffs, for now.
Trump's bullying is going to create anger and fear internationally and make everyone's travel filled with anxiety and less safe. Courts and Congress can legally challenge these tariff threats and orders in order to make peace with our neighbors.
I'm a Canadian living near the US border. I used to love traveling in the States but I will never visit the country again due to Felon 47 and his Swastistic sidekick.
Yes, of course. Because the Colombian president did not back down, when Trump announced the tariffs, he responded in the same way. From the beginning he demanded a plan and the transport of its citizens in commercial airplanes and not in military airplanes, he got it.
Whenever he's gone, he's going to have to have a completely private and guarded grave, or it's going to be the most pissed on thing in the history of mankind. We've got that to look forward to. 😆
Passing on information. Underneath the spin and soft pedaling, Petro asked for dignity in transport, agreed to repatriation if Trump would accept this condition.
Folks, we’ve got an absolutely tremendous outcome here—no tariffs on Colombia. Believe me, it’s a fantastic deal, a beautiful deal, and I know deals. Everyone said it couldn’t be done, but guess what? We did it. We always do.
There already was an agreement, and now Trump is pretending his "tough guy" approach started it, once again taking credit for something he had nothing to do with.
There was already a deal. Biden deported people to Colombia. Obama deported people to Colombia. They just did it in traditional aircraft, not military fucking transports! And they did it without sparking a trade war!
Deported people are still being sent to Colombia, as they were under the Biden administration. That is: not in shackles or in a military vehicle. In summary: Colombia has been accepting deportations for a while, but they refuse to accept the dehumanization of chains and cargo planes.
The conflict was not about sending or not sending the deported to Colombia. The conflict was about how it was done. Trump will now do it the way the Colombian president demanded, thus avoiding a tariff war.
Fuck CNN ❗️
I see it differently

If their grades, essays, recommendations, and test scores meet the requirements, good on Columbia. Good on Colombia as well for demanding their people be treated with dignity.
No matter who backed down, from a sane persons perspective this does not look like a win for Donald Trump. A weak leader unable to communicate and find solutions to simple issues. Lost respect and trust from other democratic countries.
A loss for USA and it does not bode well for the future.
Trump is a typical dumbass bully, just like the jerky boys that sat in the back of the class in 8th grade. As soon as anyone challenged them, they grumbled something unintelligible and shut up.
I hope Columbia is vocal about how many were actually illegals. How many were grabbed accidentally because everything MAGA does lacks any organization, humanity and common sense.
His lack of understanding of economics may explain why so many things he’s run have hone tits up.
Why, it’s like the only way he can actually make money is through criming and grifting…
There was no deal! The Colombian president told him Colombia isn’t afraid. They would retaliate without sweating it. FOTUS backed off because Colombia wasn’t taking his shit.
Colombia standing firm like that sends a strong message. It's good to see a country not bowing to pressure and standing up for itself. Diplomacy should always be based on respect, not intimidation
Sorry, I don't believe the press release. He's lied before about Mexico and "having a great phone call." FAKE MAGA NEWS! He backed off and is trying to save face. FAKE MAGA NEWS.
There is no way the president of Columbia wrote that nasty rebuke of Trump and then conceded.
The reason they wouldn’t accept the migrants is because of the way they were treated. If they took the restraints off etc… Columbia would allow them to land
and here's a fun fucking fact for you. Biden did 475 deportation flights to Colombia (not Columbia like your stupid administration spells it) without ANY issues. Trump created an issue that didn't exist, then said he solved it .. and you're the stupid fucking whore who fell for it.
you're just a standard republicunt .. a fucking low IQ hypocrite .. this is why you will never have any credibility, this is why people never take you seriously .. you criticise me for the things your own party does, your orange cult leader does. and don't see the irony of it. fucking ridiculous.
REALLY? FUCKING REALLY? ... have you listened to trump .. do you hear the way he talks .. have you heard the way he throws insults around ... and you're now against that sort of language when it's directed at you .. jesus fucking christ snowflake you republicans are a special kind of stupid.
Basically, Don saw that he couldn't intimidate this major importer and once he realized how much grocery prices would actually increase, he backed the hell off 😏
Meanwhile pushing Colombia right into the arms of other trading partners. He’ll just say he won over and over like his fake election claims, but the rest of the world ain’t playing.
I guess so because technically they were always going to have to take Colombians back anyhow, I guess it all depends on how the news presents this story as to if it makes 47 look strong or weak. I can definitely see how to Colombia it makes 47 look like a huge chump though.
Regardless of what actually happened, under the Trump regime, I fear we will always be told that Trump "won" because he is a strongman who intimidates other countries. We will likely never know the truth. All of this because the Colombian president dared ask that the immigrants be treated humanely.
Well dammit, I stand corrected. The Colombian president is now allowing military planes with no restrictions. So trump doesn't have to treat them with dignity after all.
It's true that deportation flights to Colombia aren't new. But this is just a whole new level of evil grandstanding.
Having a loud mouth, criminal bully in the WH makes me sick. At this rate, we will have no decent nations as friends after Trump is gone because no one will trust us.
What a bunch of cowardly assholes they all are. Well things are gonna get tough for ICE when they start going after the Real Criminal immigrants, the Cartel folks. they don't play when you fukk with their business.
This is how we treat a "major non-NATO" ally. This type of behavior will catch up to Trump eventually.
Among the threats:
- Emergency 25% tariffs” on all imports to be raised to 50% in a week
- A “travel ban” for Colombian citizens
- Revocation of visas for Colombian officials in the US.
I'm kind of sorry the Colombian government folded because it would have been great for the price of coffee to go up while we're still waiting for the price of bread and eggs to go down.
I'd love to find out all the details of that "deal". Colombia came out strong initially, I don't think they'd give in so quickly without favorable outcomes in that deal.
The tariffs would have driven up prices for Americans like me. It is clear that trump the felon is unqualified for his office and needs to be impeached.
When the realisation sunk in that retaliation tarrifs would hike up the price of coffee in America, the GOP and sex criminal Trump coped on that the American public would be even more pissed at them. Food is already expensive enough. Eggs for example.

That's false!
Respect is earned.
With these antics, Trump is showing us how little the office of the president deserves respect.
This current government is unconstitutional, illegitimate and downright evil.

He did use civilian aircraft however.

A loss for USA and it does not bode well for the future.
BUT, for Trump, the bullying, the cruelty, the meanness WAS the mission.
This will get worse. Much worse.

Trump to President Petro: "Just kidding, bro" (nervous laughter).
Tramp will try this with everyone, now he's seen he can bully one nation
They either join together, or will have to worship the orange wankspangle every time his feelings are bruised
No doubt, the pathetic leaders will ignore the problem
You know trump met the humane treatment demands Colombia always said was needed for cooperation. Pure BS propaganda.
Damnit
They just opened their options and china is gonna snap them up.
They already allow flights of deportees. They objected to the US starting to put them in handcuffs and not telling Colombia who they were bringing in.
trump threw a fit, Colombia pushed back, then trump backed off.
But he's claiming a win because he's trump.
It's true that deportation flights to Colombia aren't new. But this is just a whole new level of evil grandstanding.
