BREAKING: Per source w/ knowledge, the Trump admin plans to retaliate against the Colombian president’s decision to reject two deportation flights by closing the US embassy Colombia’s visa section tomorrow, where 1,500 appointments had been scheduled. I’m told “additional retaliatory measures will be rolled out soon.”
OUT-FREAKING-STANDING!
Petro is finding out that it’s not a one way street.
FAFO
Good!
Excellent. Stop all illegals coming up from Colombia and turn their asses around while they are still highly admired, distinguished individuals from their beloved Colombia.
I’m doing my part. I’ve switched to Peruvian cocaine.
Trump just posted this on Truth Social
I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia. This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people. Petro’s denial of these flights has jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States, so I have directed my Administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures:
-Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.
-A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters.
-Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.
-Enhanced Customs and Border Protection Inspections of all Colombian Nationals and Cargo on national security grounds.
-IEEPA Treasury, Banking and Financial Sanctions to be fully imposed.
These measures are just the beginning. We will not allow the Colombian Government to violate its legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and return of the Criminals they forced into the United States!
Recall their ambassador. Put a 100% tariff on Columbian coffee.
This is how it’s done.
L
INCREDIBLE - but it will be a problem for the druggies here, since this move prevents the Mules from also coming here.
Whoa!!
“I’m doing my part. I’ve switched to Peruvian cocaine.”
It’s comments like that to make FR worth hanging around in. Kudos on the humor.
I have NEVER EVER seen a president who arrives and starts fulfilling promises.
Obama ran against Hillary getting to the left of her with how fast he would get ALL troops out of Iraq.
He took office. He didn’t withdraw All troops. He played BS games with . . . well we are withdrawing all combat troops but we’ll still have training and administrative and logistical troops there (about 80% of the total).
Trump hits the ground and HAS NO INTEREST WHATSOEVER in what the media says.
Thanks for the comment. The Columbian government done messed up and now Trump is going to hammer that nail.
It would be nice if the illegals on the plane could be given parachutes and dumped back into their country.
Bravo, Mr. President!
Lmao!
This is how you play winning hardball with leftwing regimes. Colombia will be crying “Uncle!” very, very soon.
