President Pedro of Colombia

Two military flights from the United States that were filled with about 80 illegal Colombian immigrants who had detained and deported by U.S. authorities were refused landing in Colombia, after the Socialist President Gustavo Petro turned the flights away.

In retribution, President Donald Trump announced retaliatory measures, including several that may impact the flow of illegal drugs into the United States:
 
– 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.

“These measures are just the beginning,” Trump said. “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!”

After he imposed the sanctions, Trump posted this graphic on his TruthSocial page:

Alaska’s congressional representative responded.

“America’s prior leadership vacuum has led to a sense of entitlement among some heads of state that their citizens have a right to reside in our nation at will and without legal admittance. America’s national sovereignty is being reasserted, and those who fail to recognize that sovereignty will find the economic price to be substantial,” said Congressman Nick Begich.

Update: Within hours, Petro has offered his own presidential plane to help repatriate the illegals being deported from the United States, but it’s unclear how future deportations will be handled, since there are well over 130,000 illegal Colombian immigrants in the country, up from the 65,000 believed to be in the USA in 1996.

  2. Good beginning. Included should be the immediate construction of labor camps in the Nevada desert for all illegal aliens who return or whose nation of origin refuse to accept back.

  4. Nellie said it best. “Its gettin hot in here (so hot)”. I am not one to judge here. What we have here is another DEI. These sanctions will hit DC the hardest. With the reduction of cocaine in the capital we can expect the hookers and bookies won’t be pleased.

      • Possibly, but at least he is not a beta male who calls the president “daddy”. W Coogan that is low energy, sad.

        • Hunter Biden, who calls daddy Joe to bail him out of prison for holding illegal firearms, not paying taxes on $millions of unearned income from Chinese influence peddling and board member pay, having babies with hookers, dealing and using crack and meth, and having sex with his dead brothers wife. These ARE Democrat virtues. Low IQ scum.

      • You missed the point that they are the ones causing mass migration yet it is framed as our problem. Sh*t hole countries, maybe? Freedom and Liberty don’t have an odor unless it’s the stale smell of tyrant’s blood.

        • You’re still missing the point, allowing everyone to jump the line and granting them citizenship without vetting them allows for criminals to be here. Plus, we’re also not checking to see if they are “vaccinated” or not. But I guess all illegal immigrants are naturally immune to all diseases right?

    • Cocaine Capitol of the world. Riddled with drug gangsters and killers. Backwards country. Socialist leaders. Run like a mafia organization.
      Maybe that’s why?

  10. I wasn’t there, but they may be in chains because they are too and rowdy and threatened to bring the plane down and kill the pilot and copilot. I don’t know that for sure but there’s gotta be a reason. They were in chains and handcuffs if the Colombian president doesn’t like it, he can come up there with his own plane and take him back himself or we can just take a landing craft and land them on the beach.

  13. Common Sense Solution:
    Stuff them ‘all’ into C130’s or C-5 Galaxy aircraft and parachute them back into Columbia. It’s much more humane than throwing them (or, launching them via catapult) back over the fence into Mexico, as the long walk back home would be brutal, let alone the drop going over the top of the fence!

  15. This is what isolationism looks like. It’s not going to end well. I’m heading to Costco to stock up on coffee, thank God won’t have to run into rednecks since they are boycotting it.

    • Fortunately Colombia isn’t the only country who grows coffee. FYI the president of Colombia gave in already. So for your fantasy isolationism I’m sorry you’re disappointed. I’m sure Trump would happily deliver you some colombian gang member drug dealer baby raping woman beaters you scum bag Sebastian your the reason our country is crawling with illegals.

      • I couldn’t believe it they already have those Trump “I did that” stickers in the egg department. Classless.

        • Curiously, the price of eggs was the same before President Trump took office. Whoever is putting up those “I did that” stickers is clueless. Biden took action to stifle American energy production, and the cost of gas went up immediately.
          .
          One President did both things, and it was not Trump. But, leftists never let facts get in the way of a good narrative.

        • Turns out a avian flu breakout is the culprit. To control the spread, the farmers have to cull full barns of chickens. I wonder if that has a larger impact on the cost of eggs than anything the President can do?
          And, it proves beyond any doubt that leftists will attack President Trump for anything, even when it is simple to discover he has nothing to do with it.

    • wow.. you are myopic.

      When he ran again in 2013, this time without a primary opponent, his campaign had an almost myopic focus on a subject dear to Republicans: job creation.

  16. President Trump should have made Columbia airports no fly zones and ordered deportation flights there anyway.

  17. Trump remedy for scum socialist leaders, from scum countries, who dumped their scum citizens on US soil…….who American citizens have to pay for.
    And don’t forget the biggest scum who allowed it all to happen:
    .
    Effing Joe, Effing Biden.

    • Remarkably, the Biden administration managed to get Colombia to accept hundreds of deportation flights without hissy fits or trade wars. Republicans should look into how they did that! But you are a Maverick.

      • Biden brought in the criminals that were formerly imprisoned in Mexico, Central and South America. Trump has to clean up Biden’s messes. Get your facts straight.

  18. That is a country that Lisa Murkowski would look good in no matter what she did or did not do. Heck, let’s send the senator down to Coluombia, she’d fit in like a glove.

  20. But, but, doesn’t the Colombian president know what valuable and hard-working people these are? Why, they are all the next Einsteins! He really should have welcomed them with open arms.

    “Diversity is Stench”, or something!

  21. Because we now have a leader who isn’t afraid to show his strength, the Colombian president will now fetch the 160 criminal illegals.

  22. Best part of the article is the update. It makes sense to me that Colombia should cover the expenses of repatriating it’s citizens.

    Also, a good clear statement from Mr. Begich.

  24. Ohhh… Tariffs will just cause the price of everything to go up!!!!
    .
    Or, they are an important and valuable negotiation tool. Seems to work just fine, if you ask me.

        • No, they were not. Not unless your grocery store was having a sale.
          Sorry, but the national average price for a dozen eggs has been about the same for weeks. Check the FRED database, get the facts.
          .
          And, exactly how much baking do you do that you are on top of he day to day cost for a dozen eggs? I eat eggs for breakfast almost every day. Two, sometimes three times a week, I purchase eggs. The price was high before Jan 20th. Unless the store was having a sale of some kind.

    • And…
      Turns out a avian flu breakout is the culprit. To control the spread, the farmers have to cull full barns of chickens. I wonder if that has a larger impact on the cost of eggs than anything the President can do?
      .
      And, it proves beyond any doubt that leftists will attack President Trump for anything, even when it is simple to discover he has nothing to do with it.
      .
      But, the narrative is king! Ignore anything contrary to it.

  28. When it comes to bullying it is do as I say, not as I do? Pushing the Southern Hemisphere toward BRICS will come back to haunt MAGA

  29. Trump already has a rap sheet, and the fedora adds a nice touch of class to his demeanor as a crook. And his sandblasted face projects an appearance of intelligent that he lacks! He might do well as a Baby Face Nelson; but in the West, he’d never make it trying to act like Doc Holliday or Wyatt Earp; then again, he’d probably pass acting as a Clanton!
