(DCNF)—The Trump administration is reportedly considering limiting refugee admissions to roughly 40,000 people for fiscal year 2026, and a significant portion of them could be white South Africans, Reuters reported Friday.
Two U.S. officials familiar with the discussions, along with an internal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) email, indicate that up to 30,000 of the spots could go to Afrikaners, according to Reuters. Since taking office, President Donald Trump has drawn attention to the violence and discrimination faced by the minority group of predominantly Dutch descent in South Africa.
“Outlets like Reuters have long covered the persecution of Afrikaners, who have endured unspeakable horrors, including rape, murder, and other violent crimes while their government has abandoned them,” White House press secretary Anna Kelly told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “President Trump has a humanitarian heart, which is why he has welcomed these courageous individuals to the United States. Refugee admission caps will be determined next month, and any numbers discussed at this point are pure speculation.”
In May, Trump signed an executive order promoting the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees escaping race-based discrimination and violence in their country, whose harrowing testimonies have been documented by the Daily Caller.
Trump’s order accuses the South African government of showing “disregard” for the rights of its citizens through “countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education, and business, and hateful rhetoric and government actions fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners.”
A top refugee program official at the HHS reportedly informed state-level refugee coordinators that a 40,000-person cap was expected for fiscal year 2026, Reuters reported. The potential limit is a sharp decrease from the 100,000 refugees admitted under former President Joe Biden in fiscal year 2024.
During a May White House meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Trump warned of a potential “genocide” against them and played a video montage highlighting discrimination and violent attacks against Afrikaners.
The first group of 59 Afrikaner refugees arrived in May, with 34 more arriving by early August, according to Reuters. Some refugee advocacy groups, including the Episcopal Migration Services, decided to end their partnership with the federal government after Trump began promoting Afrikaner resettlement.

Put ‘em in Hamtramck or Minneapolis.
Send all these refugees to a smaller, sanctimonious “sanctuary city”. Maybe Portland. Flip their politics. Feel the love.
Good.
They’re facing a horrendous future and likely death if they stay.
As I understand it, they’re hardworking, ambitious farmers who know what they are doing. They already speak English and have a somewhat similar culture and values.
If they’re farmers take Bill Gates land and give to them
Haven’t they been through enough?
Tell Trump we’d be glad to have 40k white South Africans in legally—as long as we have 40 million illegals back to their home countries in exchange.
And the Left will cry racism.
Which judge will block it first?
You are right. If they stay in SA, they will be killed.
Dems dont want educated white south africans being sent here because they are more likely to vote Republican and not rely on the Govt for freebies..Instead Dems only want people who will suck off the Govt tit and vote Dem
40,000? How about at least 4 million of ‘em?
"If they’re farmers[,] take Bill Gates land and give to them"
Probably would be much better than the “99% Muslim, 43,000 Somali refugees settled in US under Obama” of which one elected to Congre$$ now preaches nothing but hate toward the US.
I think the Boer farmers would be compatible with the Amish and Mennonites.
Most would thrive more easily in a rural area, a place geographically similar to where they came from. Better to postpone their random encounters with jealous feral people, who clearly dislike all whites. Treat them sort of the way most Amish (the real ones) would expect to live. Those who desire a faster pace of life, can go seek it, after living here in peace for a while.
No more Somalis - please?!
Pretty sure they number less than 2.5 mil in the entire country.
Yup. I’m sure they’d work out well in rural communities.
