Huuummm! 👀😮
How do you send innocent people to such a place. This is really unsettling. 🌿🇺🇸
Don't they throw people from planes down there?
Your words remind me of my old days when i used to work nine to five, now $93k fortnightly, retired my parents and i are in good health!!!❤️
America is human trafficking for political clout. It’s horrific.
The fact that there was NO due process is illegal and what if ICE came after people in your family without any just cause, will it be okay?
Oh well, if he’s illegal, he needs to go.
It’s always “they were seeking asylum”. No they weren’t. Million just walked in with no intentions of doing anything
We have had enough of sixty minutes you have made this political and Americans have seen your agenda
These are not innocent people. First, they broke the law by sneaking into the country. Then they took American taxpayer money to live in lavish hotels, or apartments, plus they got $15k in food stamps, and $5k in cash. That's unethical to say the least. The overwhelming majority voted for this, to get them out of America.
Just unfathomable that this has and is happening in our Country the USA because of an authoritarian tyrant. I am sick that they are bypassing basic laws.
CBS 60 Minutes has become un-American all because of their hate for the beloved President Trump. If you dont love America and our President, then leave. You will not be missed. Go!
If President Trump says oxygen is good, you guys would would be against it. Go ahead, don't breathe it oxygen. Get Trump. Your hate is showing and your ratings have fallen while Trump approval keeps rising. Haha.
You guys cheered when innocent people were held in DC gulagag for 4 years. They had no criminal records and did nothing wrong. They walked thru the ropes of the people's house. Innocent grandmothers and others were mistreated but yall cheered because they were Trump supporters. This is why people despise you un-American hypocrites. Just leave and don't come back.
This is what America voted for!
No more murderous gangs! Quit twisting the truth. Check your low ratings. No more taxpayer money for you from USAID. We know MSM was paid by the corrupt obiden admin. No more!
Crying about due process? That's rich. Where was due process when they snuck into country? Where was due process for Jan 6 prisoners?
The obiden admin tried to destroy this country for illegal alien
voters.
That is treason!
Hope Bondi and Patel get obama, hillary and the rest.
Good job, Mr Homan.
Thank you. America supports all your work. Pefect. Finally no more obiden/ obama people.
Keep up the good work President Trump. The people's president. Thank you.
This is also an example of why trump put loyalists in these positions-they simply do what he says and break the law!
Party of law & order? REALLY?
You're missing that last k kk!
Wow they put some stupid bots on these comments! Lol!
0:29 My Family, Friends and I are SICK of 60 minutes and the Radical LEFT Opponents of President Trump's Agendas! Stop trying to incite riots, antagonism, hateful language, and Lying TV Programs AGAINST Americans's Safety and Protection! We All Support President Trump & Tom Homan, and Trust THEM for investigations against Illegal Gang Members who have killed Americans and Others, and to Deport them, PERIOD!❤😊🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
MAGA period
My country has been taken over by monsters
