Actually, the target countries for the deportation are more like the Bahamas, T&C, and Grenada.

Bahamas setback: What’s Trump’s plan to expel migrants to third countries?

Trump’s team has a list of countries to which they want to send deported immigrants if their home countries refuse to accept them, NBC News reported on Thursday, citing three unnamed sources.

The outlet reported that, in addition to the Bahamas, Trump is considering the neighbouring Turks and Caicos Islands, as well as Panama and Grenada.

Further details, such as whether the immigrants would be allowed to work if they enter such a third country, are not known yet, NBC reported. It is also not known “what kind of pressure — either economic or diplomatic” Trump will place on the third countries to accept the immigrants.

Too bad for the deportees though, in that St Lucia is not among the listed countries. Our colleague InHindsight is there ready to offer employment to all interested parties.

Yeah I know, I was just trying to needle Bravos a bit, but the man so wound up, he is seeing only red.

I think what they should be doing is taking all these people and put them in the army rather than deport them. 'Mericans not going in the army and the US needs to build up the army to show battle strength, if it's ever needed.

This thread reminds me of Blinken and Biden dirty tactics, start another conflict in an attempt to cause distraction to counter the heavy losses they're taking in the main war, no matter how silly it makes them look.

Lol hilarious af .

Yup. Based in Provo. Spent a weekend with some visiting family at the Italian Village earlier this year. Did you do the water park in yuh ol age? smile Its one way to beat island fever without leaving the island for a couple days. lol.

We do have a 'submarine' cable connecting Provo to North Caicos and a cable buried in a causeway between North and Middle Caicos also. You are correct though, the island, particularly Provo is growing at a pace that the infrastructure is struggling to keep up with.

TCI already has immigration challenges. These little rocks can't handle any more illegals.

DJT has the land mass and resources to support them..tell him guh kick rocks. This selfish agenda of the arguably most powerful nation on earth is nauseating considering the manner in which they have leveraged and discriminated and enslaved people to get there. But our 'Stephens' love him anyway.

I have concluded that there are four types of brown and black people who support this guy:

1. The conservative christian who is distracted by the transgender, and LGBQT agenda of the left. To them I say ..focus on the big picture. That demographic is but a small subset of the population. Its hypocrisy to focus on that issue while ignoring all the completely and utterly non-Christian behaviors of DJT. Nothing about that guy suggests Christian values.

2. Brown and Black men who feel threatened by DEI ( I understand some of that frustration )..but to them I say do not allow the need to address institutionalized discrimination make you throw the baby out with the bathwater. Sitting, hoping and praying that historical and institutionalized discrimination will just go away on its on volition is naive at best.

3. Classic House N-words who feel that his incessant demeaning of brown and black people ( birther movement, eating dogs and cats, shithole countries, we prefer Norweigians. central park 5 et etc) somehow doesn't include them. They feel like they're the 'good' ones like Byron D.

4. Black/brown men who relish the lack of accountability that he represents....just do and say as you please because you have means and move on like nothing ever happened.

DIS - Honorable mention to those who like to pretend to believe he is anti-war. To them I say..I agree he doesn't want war...what he wants is dominance and subjugation of entire peoples..and I suppose they must not fight back. "Israel needs to finish the job fast" anyone. The hypocrisy is astounding.
