Your coffee and cut flower prices are safe /s Byebye illegal immigrants https://www.axios.com/2025/01/27/trump-colombia-tariffs-paused LATEST UPDATE: Trump pausing Colombia tariffs after migrants deal, White House says • “The Government of Colombia has agreed to all of President Trump’s terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on U.S. military aircraft, without limitation or delay. Based on this agreement, the fully drafted IEEPA tariffs and sanctions will be held in reserve, and not signed, unless Colombia fails to honor this agreement.” ”The visa sanctions issued by the State Department, and enhanced inspections from Customs and Border Protection, will remain in effect until the first planeload of Colombian deportees is successfully returned.” ”Today’s events make clear to the world that America is respected again. President Trump will continue to fiercely protect our nation’s sovereignty, and he expects all other nations of the world to fully cooperate in accepting the deportation of their citizens illegally present in the United States.”[/quote] So flights to Colombia can continue just as they were happening during the Biden administration.[/quote] Not quite the same. Colombian president was upset because they are being treated like criminals and handcuffed with Trump. That was his protest. Other than that same as Biden except Trump is doing everything he can to make it a spectacular show. [/quote] Not quite the same. Colombia was turning planes back, not anymore. Colombia actually offering to send their own planes to take people back. [/quote] Colombia was turning planes back because Trump was making an inhumane and unnecessary show of being a d!ck. Now that Trump can send flights like a normal person everything is as it was.[/quote] +1. Just like someone at State is having to smooth things over with Brazil so trade wars aren’t happening in Trump’s first weeks in office. Trump and his team can bluster all they want. What was learned here today is that other countries will buck back. [/quote] Really? I think the opposite. Petro learned very quickly that having a public hissy fit was not good policy for Colombia. Impulsively using social media to make some nonsensical complaint and forbidding the US from returning illegal Colombian citizens was embarrassing for Colombia. If Latin Americans want to call Trump a bad gringo and use that tired trope, Trump will play along and force Latin American countries to follow through. If Colombia and Brazil want an immediate trade war, this administration will oblige. There is nothing wrong with the US using C-130s to repatriate illegal migrants. Trump has the high ground here. It's no surprise that Colombia changed its mind very quickly once the consequences became clear. Saner government officials presumably got Petro to walk away from the keyboard before his dumbass social media outbursts caused more problems. [/quote] Trump is the one who backed down and conceded. [/quote] Yup[/quote] No, you are a liar, axios , CNN and AP News all very liberal state that Colombia backs down after trump threatens to hit them with tarrifs. Usa is respected again.[/quote] They threatened back and he backed down.[/quote] Really? How did he back down?[/quote] He agreed to send the deportees back in humane conditions. That was whole issue. Colombia never refused to take them. [/quote] Colombia will allow U.S. deportees into the country after Trump threatened tariffs as immigration crackdowns are underway around the country. A high-tech safety hazard poses a threat to the L.A. wildfires cleanup. And the Chiefs hold off the Bills to set up a Super Bowl rematch against the Eagles. Here’s what to know today. Colombia agrees to Trump’s deportation terms after tariff standoff, White House says https://www.nbcnews.com/news/colombia-deportation-planes-chiefs-eagles-superbowl-morning-rundown-rcna189369 They were always transported in humane conditions so this was just the colombia president trying to save face[/quote] I will not believe a single press release coming from the White House after those two fools claimed Haitians were eating cats and dogs, then doubled down on the lie.
