Since October 1, 2025, the US has accepted 6,668 refugees. Of those, 6,665 were white South Africans. Three—admitted last November—were from Afghanistan. No other refugees were admitted.

That data is backed up by the US Refugee Admissions Program, a federal public-private interagency collaboration program that works on refugee resettlement.> …

A presidential memo from September announced Trump’s intentions: that the refugees accepted “shall primarily be among Afrikaners from South Africa” and “other victims of illegal or unjust discrimination in their respective homelands.”

The Trump administration sees Afrikaners, an South African ethnic group descended primarily from European settlers, as victims of white “genocide”—a racist conspiracy theory promoted by many on the far right, notably Elon Musk.

    I think Harris planned to do the same thing, so it really doesn’t matter which party is in power.

      Wdym you don’t think Harris was better for the US? /s

      To the downvoters: this isn’t a Dems vs republicans issue, it’s a US issue. It’s a uniparty system that’s working as intended, which is why it needs to be completely abolished and revolutionized.

        If you don’t think Harris would be better for the US than Trump or that she would only let in white people from South Africa, you’re insanely delusional.

        While it is definitely a US thing, it’s also a Republican vs Democrat thing. Neither party is even good, but one is way worse in almost every facet than the other.

        If Harris won, do you think we’d be engaged in a war with Iran right now, or that the straight of Hormuz would be closed, or that the Epstein files would be as blocked as they are? Do you think she would have signed a bunch of EOs that are illegal to enrich herself and her family? Do you believe that ICE would have invaded cities all over the country, illegally capturing minorities and murdering two people? No, none of that would have happened, because she is better than Trump, and that’s a Republican vs Democrat thing.

          Saying I’m “insanely delusional” isn’t an argument. No, I don’t think Harris would be better. Like I said, she’s part of the uniparty that wants billionaire oligarchs in power with no real improvements for people.

          The fact you think it’s a republican vs democrat thing is strange because you should know it’s a uniparty. Both republican and democrat leaders were seen in unison on Epstein Island. Obama bombed Pakistan and countries in the Middle East, other democrat leaders have been going on in their so-called war on terror in afghanistan, and so on. Each “democrat” leader that’s been in power can be traced to atrocities as disgusting as the next.

          It doesn’t matter if Harris would differ on a specific, isolated policy (white genocide spiels), because the big picture is always the same: they are not for the people, they’re for the concentration of money and power and maintenance of the status quo within a broken system.

          I do indeed believe the Epstein files would remain blocked under Harris, no american leader in power (kept alive) would allow that. Democrats have been involved in insider trading to enrich themselves and their families too, so I don’t know what you’re getting at. Minorities? Harris was known for her mistreatment of muslims and brown people in general.

          As pointed out by the other comment, I do believe the US would be involved in war w Iran or another country in the middle east. Let’s face it: America is Israel’s bitch and does whatever Israel wants. AIPAC owns the political system in the US.

            It’s delusional to think that anyone would be as bad as this unprecedented administration. What you’re doing is like saying Jeff Dahmer and a guy that killed one person are equally bad. There are degrees of awful, and Trump is about as bad as it gets.

              Clearly you didn’t understand my comment.

              “Delusional” isn’t an argument, and the rest of my comment addresses why the “degrees of bad” idea isn’t relevant at all.

                The rest of your comment doesn’t make the difference between the Republicans and Democrats irrelevant. It ignores the reality that Republicans are the main baddies making a bad system significantly worse with zero positive legislation. I acknowledged the Dems suck, but there can at least be some progress made with dem leadership. It’s not good enough progress, but it’s still progress. Because of that by itself, the degrees of bad is extremely relevant.

                Look all of the way back to Reagan. Clinton wasn’t great, but he was better than his predecessors and was the last president to have a balanced budget before Bush killed it. Bush dragged us into our current political climate and decades of war. Obama continued with military action, but also got the ACA, gay marriage, and weed legalized during his terms. Then Trump had nothing good and divided the country as bad as it’s been in my lifetime. Then Biden tried to do some good but was blocked at every turn. I wish he had gone harder to hold people liable, but his admin did pass positive legislation. Including his messy exit, he’s still top two best presidents in the past 26 years. Was he great? No, but he did some good. Now we’re back to Trump, the worst president for most of our lives. No redeeming qualities.

                The US system is broken, and neither Dems or reps are the answer, we need more progressives in leadership to effectively drive the change needed. But change doesn’t happen overnight, and in the interim period Dems are a vastly superior option even with their glaring flaws.

                  It does actually, but you don’t seem to acknowledge the uniparty, their homogenous class interests in the Epstein class (not the citizens in either case), and their violence towards both marginalized demographics and war/genocide.

                  Obama bombed so many countries in his time, and most of the Dems in power did the same thing. There’s more than enough shade out there on all of them. Kamala was islamophobic herself.

                  Additionally, the political system in America has allowed for someone as terrible as Trump to come into power.

                  While I agree the system is broken and that Dems/reps are not the answer, I disagree that reformism within the system will yield anything. Reformism doesn’t work, a radical revolution is needed.

          Disclaimer, I don’t think harris would have been as bad as Trump. But this is the US.

          If Harris won, do you think we’d be engaged in a war with Iran right now

          Yes, Israel is America’s ally and this is Israel’s war. The choice would be between letting Israel get absolutely destroyed which would have unironically happened by now if there weren’t 3 carrier groups trying to intercept missiles and drones, or going to war with Iran.

          that the Epstein files would be as blocked as they are?

          Yes, as an AG she spent her time refusing to charge pedos and disproportionately arresting (and arguing against the conditional release of) minorities. She worked with a know pedophile for four fucking years and called him one of the best people she knew.

          Do you think she would have signed a bunch of EOs that are illegal to enrich herself and her family?

          She went fairly middle class Californian to one of the richest women on Earth by the time she ended her tenure as Senator. You tell me. Maybe they would’ve been legal like how all other presidents massively enriched themselves in office. Maybe that’d be the difference.

          Do you believe that ICE would have invaded cities all over the country, illegally capturing minorities and murdering two people?

          It’d be way more than two, and it would be less invasion and more silent takeover based on how Biden and Obama used ICE to terrorize cities for decades.

          The main difference is it would still be comfortable for the ever shrinking middle class, and it would be quiet since liberals by and large don’t listen to unapproved news sources for information. Just like Obama’s kills of US citizens across the world, just like Biden’s record number of child arrests, many of whom are still detained in “Trump’s” ICE facilities (or just missing).

            No. Previously when Israel has said “We’re going up against Iran next week, join us or it’ll be a shitshow”, the US has had the sense to say “No deal”, and Israel folded. But somehow the “Art of the deal” president doesn’t get this, so went all-in with Israel. Dumb as a rock.

            You think that under Harris, more immigrants would have gotten murdered than during the massive ICE push, where they hired thousands of ill-qualified goons, hardly trained them, and let them loose on the population? That’s bizarre.

      like all things with this administration, it’s so fucking stupid, and it’s so fucking racist.

      remember, the GOP could stop this tomorrow, but they choose to let the madness continue every day.
