FYI because the actual reasons for this feud are under-reported:

  1. Colombia has been accepting deported immigrants for years without complaint. They were being sent by charter or commercial aircraft, and the Colombia government was notified ahead of time that they were coming.

  2. Trump sent a group of deportees on a military aircraft

  3. Trump did not notify Colombia that this aircraft was coming, and as such tried to lands a military aircraft in a sovereign state with no warning

  4. Colombia said fuck that, the plane eventually landed in Honduras, and Colombia sent another plane to pick the people up from there.

  5. Colombia said "what the fuck dude" and Trump the a temper tantrum

  6. Side note, every single one of those deportees was arrested by the Biden admin, so it's not like this is even Trump delivering on his campaign promises. He's just doing a worse job at what Biden was already doing.
