The Trump administration is planning to welcome up to 17,500 additional White Afrikaners from South Africa as refugees over the next 12 months, according to a notice sent to Congress on Tuesday and obtained by CBS News.
The State Department informed congressional officials that the Trump administration is planning to allocate 17,500 refugee spots for fiscal year 2027, and that they will "primarily" go to Afrikaners, who President Trump has claimed are being oppressed for being White. Fiscal year 2027 starts in October.
While the second Trump administration has effectively shut down the U.S. refugee resettlement program for most people fleeing persecution and violence around the world, it has made an exemption for Afrikaners, resettling thousands of them over the past year and a half.
Trump administration officials have portrayed Afrikaners as victims of racial oppression in post-apartheid South Africa. The South African government has consistently denied persecuting the ethnic minority, made up of descendants of European settlers, mostly from the Netherlands.
"Afrikaners face the seizure of agricultural property without compensation; government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education, and business; and hateful rhetoric fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored minorities," the State Department said in its notice to Congress.
Last week, the U.S. imposed new sanctions on South African officials who it said were responsible for discriminating against Afrikaners.
The Afrikaner resettlement effort is projected to cost the U.S. government $500 million, the notice to Congress said.
"The United States anticipates that Afrikaners from South Africa will fully assimilate into the United States in a manner that preserves taxpayer resources for U.S. citizens and does not anticipate other countries resettling Afrikaners," the notice read.
Mr. Trump has alleged that Afrikaners face a "genocide" in South Africa. In a tense Oval Office meeting last year, he confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on the claims, showing him a video that spotlighted murders of farmers in the country.
Those claims have been strongly disputed. A "60 Minutes" report earlier this year featured Afrikaners who rejected the notion that White people are facing a "genocide" and said murders on farms were linked to a broader crime problem in South Africa that harms members of all races.

This is like getting 4U O negative PRBC when you have a hemoglobin of 6. Our whole country will benefit bigly from this.
I would double down next go-round.
Bring them all over here. Watch SA collapse in a matter of months.
They chose Communism, they got it.
Unless a D admin revokes the status the same we have seen with other groups should they get into office again.
This might be a great idea
But did I miss the part where we will vet them?

I must disagree. We are full and don’t need them. No more immigrants for at least 10 years and then only after the immigration laws and process are overhauled.
Yes, because the Dims think white people are always the oppressors even when the blacks are in control of government and are killing them.
The US deep-state is so good at woke color revolutions
How about using that skill to overthrow the ANC, allowing others to rule, and arming white South Africans so they can protect themselves in their own country?
....White South Africans only...??!! dis be RASSIS’ in its
mos’ egregibous form...!!
Dems dont want them here since they wont rely on the Govt tit and thus not vote Democrat. My nephew’s best friend is from South Africa, they are such nice people. South African Jews, the sweetest people you can meet and I LOVE her accent!
Hysterical. The blacks want whites dead or gone and TAKE their land but do not know how to farm. They will soon be demanding food or starve. Low IQ and unskilled savages.

How about welcoming the Christian’s being killed elsewhere in Africa ?

I am with you on this issue; I would expand this program to anyone in the EU and Canada who feel persecuted by the Islamic hordes invading their continent.
Same right here.
“While the second Trump administration has effectively shut down the U.S. refugee resettlement program for most people fleeing persecution and violence around the world...”
Nope, they have taken an uncontrolled problem and rewrote the policy and changed how it was acomplished.

does this not contradict the other law where if the immigrant receive aid they would be deported and not eligible for citizenship?
The difference is between ‘refugee’ and ‘immigrant’...........
