Amid Near-Total Asylum Ban, Trump Welcomes White South Africans
Briefly

The article discusses a controversial initiative by the Trump administration to utilize federal funds intended for vulnerable refugee populations to support the resettlement of white South Africans, particularly Afrikaners, who are reportedly seeking asylum due to alleged racial discrimination in their homeland. This development follows an executive order by Trump aimed at providing humanitarian relief for these groups, raising concerns over the prioritization of ethnic and racial considerations in refugee admissions, especially as other refugees remain stranded due to a ban on admissions.
