Sunday is usually a day for relaxation and entertainment. However, this past Sunday witnessed a spectacular drama unfold, even more exciting than fictional TV shows. Have you ever seen two countries locking horns and reaching a resolution within an hour?

On January 26th, Trump surprisingly conceded to a foreign leader in the midst of playing a round of golf, a rapid turn of events that caught even news junkies like myself off guard.

It’s well-known that one of the major tasks Trump undertook upon assuming office was to address the border crisis in the US, involving the mass deportation of illegal immigrants. In recent years, millions of illegal immigrants from various countries have poured into the southern border of the US, shaking the social structure and way of life in America. Without delay, Trump began cracking down on criminal elements and gang members among illegal immigrants, sending a batch of them back to their home countries by plane, with ongoing deportation operations on a large scale.

The mass deportation of illegal immigrants in the US is currently a top priority, overseen not by anyone else but Trump, who is brimming with determination as a new official. However, there are those who disregard the situation and insist on making a scene just to gain attention. And what happened next?

On January 26th (Sunday), while Trump finally had some time to relax and play golf at his golf course, news came in as he was eagerly playing on the third hole: the President of Colombia, Petro, refused the landing of two US planes carrying deported Colombian illegal immigrants, successfully provoking Trump who was about to swing his golf club. Then, everyone witnessed the unfolding scene.

Soon after, Trump swiftly unleashed five major moves on Colombia through his social media: 1. Emergency imposition of a 25% tariff on all Colombian goods entering the US. The 25% tariff will be doubled to 50% within a week; 2. Travel bans on Colombian government officials, allies, and supporters, immediate revocation of their US visas; 3. Visa sanctions on all members, families, and supporters of the ruling party in Colombia; 4. Strengthening customs and border inspections on all Colombian nationals and goods; 5. Implementing comprehensive financial, banking, and financial sanctions on Colombia. It ended with a statement: “These measures are just the beginning.”

Ever heard of hitting the bullseye? The Colombians surely got the message. Trump’s moves weren’t just aimed, they were direct hits with forceful impact. Apart from the potentially severe impact of tariffs on Colombia, the most lethal blows are arguably the second and third axes.

These two measures directly hit all Colombian government officials, party members, supporters, and their families, essentially targeting the entire upper echelon of Colombia, leading to an immediate expulsion of numerous offspring of officials and affluent families residing in the US. And the statement, “These measures are just the beginning,” is even more alarming, hinting at potential asset seizures in the US, followed possibly by the CIA exposing the misdeeds of Colombian high officials worldwide.

What’s most intriguing is that after Trump unleashed his five axes at Colombia, he casually resumed his golf game as if nothing happened, completely ignoring the storm brewing in the Colombian political sphere, likely prompting endless calls to President Petro, who must have set his phone to explode, as people started counting down against him.

Later on, Trump posted a photo online captioned “Big Brother is Angry.” Have you seen Trump wear a pinstripe suit with a top hat before? Some wondered what “FAFO” meant, reportedly originating from Shakespeare and a common slang term from the 1960s and 70s, used to convey a final warning. In essence, translated, it means: You dare to act recklessly?! Let me show you the consequences!

From Trump pausing his golf game at the third hole to announce sanctions on Colombia, and then resuming to play golf, by the time Trump reached the eighth hole, Colombian President Petro, a socialist believer, went from this to that. President Petro issued an emergency statement, expressing readiness to send his presidential plane to retrieve recently rejected Colombian illegal immigrants from the US, accepting all of President Trump’s demands and actively cooperating.

It took just 39 minutes from Trump’s post to Petro’s public submission. The subsequent official statement from the White House read: “The Colombian government has agreed to all of President Trump’s conditions, including the unrestricted and immediate reception of all deported Colombian illegal immigrants from the US, including those transported back on US military aircraft. According to the agreement, the fully drafted IEEPA tariffs and sanctions will be temporarily suspended, not signed, unless Colombia fails to comply with the agreement.”

Furthermore, visa sanctions issued by the US State Department and enhanced inspections by Customs and Border Protection will remain in effect until the first batch of deported Colombian illegal immigrants are sent back.

One might question whether this White House statement is employing tricks similar to those used by the Chinese government: releasing a Chinese version to mislead its own people and an English version for external consumption. Has the Colombian President truly accepted all of Trump’s demands? Perhaps unnoticed, the image accompanying the White House statement was reshared by Colombian President Petro himself. What state of mind must he be in to resort to such actions?

Some claim that the US has long employed the strategy of “carrots and sticks” in foreign policy, but at some point, it regressed to a “pure carrot” approach, even using the absurd method of “feeding the dog with meat buns” with some rogue countries. Now, with Trump in power, those unappreciative countries are finally being shown the might of a superpower. Meanwhile, military planes deporting illegal immigrants are flying to various countries. A witness captured scenes of the first group of deported Brazilian illegal immigrants in Brazil.

Not only that, Trump is unsatisfied with the high number of illegal immigrants detained in the US and is in negotiations with Salvadoran President Bukele to establish a “Safe Third Country” agreement. What does this mean? It entails that the US will first deport illegal immigrants from various South American countries to El Salvador, where they will be screened before being allowed to return back to their respective countries, avoiding potential legal loopholes for asylum in the US until necessary corrections are made in the current US immigration laws.

Trump’s resolute actions in deporting illegal immigrants are bolstered by the support of the American public opinion and the US Congress, representing the will of the people. Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Johnson, tweeted: “Colombia and all other countries take heed—the US Congress is prepared to enact sanctions and other measures against those unwilling to fully cooperate or comply with US demands regarding receiving deported illegal immigrants. Meanwhile, Trump, in his capacity as the Commander-in-Chief, has deployed troops to the southern border to assist in restoring the greatly compromised US border.

Just then, the Chairman of the US National Border Patrol Council revealed that China had dispatched a large number of young men illegally entering the US with malicious intentions.

Do you recall the last time I mentioned that Tom Homan, the head of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) appointed by Trump, spoke about a large number of military-aged Chinese men illegally entering the US with unknown intentions, most of whom had since vanished in the US? This issue has drawn attention not just from Homan but also from the Chairman of the US National Border Patrol Council who recently addressed related concerns.

Some might wonder, as the US initiates a widespread crackdown on illegal immigrants across the country, where is Tom Homan, dubbed the “Border Czar”?

Yesterday, Tom Homan, Director of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), secretly traveled to Chicago to oversee the arrest of criminal elements among illegal immigrants. The day before, Homan’s statement shook the entire US political scene when he stated: if the Arizona Governor dared to interfere with the large-scale deportation of illegal immigrants, he would arrest the Democratic female Governor.

Let’s listen to a snippet of what Homan said on his way to Chicago.

Some individuals of Chinese descent may wonder if it’s excessive to indiscriminately expel a large number of illegal immigrants from the US. We often say “my home is my castle,” but in reality, one’s country is no different from one’s home. If someone were to sneak into your home without invitation, maybe settling in without consent, even eating and drinking, would you not evict them? How does illegal entry into a country differ from this scenario?

Today, surprisingly, the US is witnessing an unprecedented event in history: a large number of illegal immigrants residing in the US voluntarily leaving with their families. They aren’t leaving out of a sudden change of heart; the real reason is that they understood the Border Czar’s warning: if caught and deported, they cannot apply for immigration or enter the US legally for the next 20 years. Thus, it’s best for them to leave voluntarily now.

Essentially, leaving now offers the possibility of returning to the US legally in the future. Otherwise, those currently deported by the US government, even if their parents, children, or relatives gain US citizenship later, won’t be able to re-enter the US legally for 20 years. Hence, scenes as seen below at the Texas-Mexico border.

Moreover, some Mexican gangs, completely oblivious to the severity of the situation, have recently issued a statement, claiming they will target US military aircraft used for deporting illegal immigrants. In response, a photo was immediately shared showcasing the deployed US troops at the border, accompanied by a comment: “Thank you so much. Now, Trump finally has legitimate grounds to cross-border combat drug cartels.”

Celebrating the holiday, constantly discussing arrests may seem out of sync with the festive atmosphere. Thus, towards the end of the program, let’s watch a video, reportedly created by illegal immigrants to evade arrests, alongside law enforcement officers apprehending criminals. Let’s all witness the creative works of these illegal immigrants.
