Mexico and other countries could hamper Trump border plans
Lawmakers, experts point out other governments don't have to cooperate President Donald Trump's plans to seal the U.S.-Mexico border and
conduct mass deportations might soon run into a major roadblock:
Mexico and the countries where the immigrants come from might not
accept some of them back.
An expert witness at a House Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday
listed other countries that have refused to take back migrants, such
as Cuba, Venezuela, China, India, Bangladesh and Iran.

Lawmakers, experts point out other governments don't have to cooperate President Donald Trump's plans to seal the U.S.-Mexico border and
conduct mass deportations might soon run into a major roadblock:

accept some of them back.
Trump on Monday signed an order to revive of the "Remain in Mexico"
policy, which requires asylum-seekers to stay outside the United
States as their claims are processed. But on the front lines of the U.S.-Mexico border, that requires a degree of cooperation from the
Mexican government, which appears resistant.
Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters Wednesday she has
not agreed to accept non-Mexican migrants seeking asylum in the United States, and such a move would require Mexico to agree, according to
report in Reuters.

"The Trump administration began sending deportees on US military
planes back to Guatemala and El Salvador, according to people familiar
with the matter, as it looks to demonstrate that it's acting on
campaign promises to return millions of migrants to their home
countries."
Question is, how long will this last before these countries get ticked
off?
Is US offering some greenbacks to these countries for this "service"
Foreign aid? A pat on the head?

Yes, the T-Borg is saying "resistance is futile..submit, submit, and

Take It ," then the T-Borg would fizzle, and croak.

A looming trade war between the US and Colombia appears to have been
averted after the Colombian government agreed to allow US military
flights carrying deported migrants to land in the Andean country.
The spat erupted on Sunday when President Gustavo Petro barred two
military planes carrying Colombians deported from the US from landing.
The Trump administration responded by threatening to slap punitive
tariffs on Colombian exports to the US.
President Petro at first said Colombia would retaliate by imposing
tariffs on US goods, but the White House later announced that Colombia
had agreed to accept migrants - including those arriving on US
military aircraft - "without limitation or delay".

Doomsday Clock Moves One Second Closer to Catastrophe
The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists shifted the hands of the
symbolic clock to 89 seconds to midnight, citing the threat of climate change, nuclear war and the misuse of artificial intelligence.

Hahaha... hilarious that the clowns still bother with their climate propaganda. All rational people have long since moved on from team Greta.
Drill, baby, drill! =D
As for the doomsday clock, it's been within just a few seconds of
midnight for so long, it has long since lost its relevancy as a
communication device.

Thank you for demonstrating the flaw in democracy.

jeez, get over yourselves.

I ignore it, as should everyone.

I miss the time when "two minutes to midnight" was considered alarming!
