Just another attempt of the US controlling what happens south of our border. It has all worked out so well for Latin America before and will be more of the same now. Support for right wing police states over support for the people.

I will hate to feel the economic pain but this Trump prick needs to be stopped now. Iran has yet to really activate their agents in the US. Trump assassination, cyber attacks on infrastructure and general terrorist attacks to follow.

It's going to take a concerted effort on all fronts to stop this fucker. And imagine Saudi Prince dropping him like a rock! Good! Put the pressure on Trump, Bibi, and Putin.

USA under Trump is murderous, fascist, predatory country. It is no longer a constitutional Republic but a police state. I hope every UN nation understands this & imposes sanctions. Deport all US military personnel back to USA. Trump & his regime are not to be trusted by any nation #WarCrimes

This evil prick needs to go. One of the worst people to ever serve in government. Deport him.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.
