The president falsely claimed on social media that the South African government was confiscating farmland, echoing previous statements that the country was mistreating white people.
The United States will immediately start offering a rapid pathway to citizenship for South African farmers, President Trump said in a social media post on Friday, falsely claiming that South Africa’s government was confiscating their land “and MUCH WORSE THAN THAT.”
The post largely echoed what Mr. Trump has previously said about South Africa, including in an executive order last month in which he suspended all American aid to the country and offered refugee status to Afrikaners, a white ethnic minority.
In January, President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa signed into law a measure that would allow the government to take land in the public interest without providing compensation; shortly after, Mr. Trump began criticizing the South African government. Elon Musk, who is from South Africa, has backed the president’s statements with his own social media posts that accuse the country’s government of having openly racist laws.
“A bad place to be right now,” Mr. Trump wrote of South Africa on Friday.
His post comes as the South African government is preparing a trade deal to offer to Mr. Trump, hoping that it will settle tensions, stave off further punitive action and convince him to keep a close relationship with South Africa. Mr. Ramaphosa had previously said that Mr. Trump was spreading misinformation and that he was looking forward to meeting with the U.S. president to clear the air.

FALSELY???
NYT lies; it’s what they do for a profession.
On X, I’ve recently seen SA stating the opposite to the 1st sentence
Fire who ever wrote this NY Slimes. That is a direct knowing lie

South African president signs controversial land seizure law
Dem reaction “Yeah when we said we want immigrants in this country we NEVER meant white people OK, especially white people who might vote Republican..now Ukrainians are OK since we pay them off to vote Dem”
Liberals cannot be convinced of anything, until after the fact.
That’s how Hitler was able to kill 6 million Jews, the liberals that controlled the institutions did not believe it until after the war.
Remind the Afrikaners to bring their weapons.
“White ethnic minority.”
It must’ve killed them to write that.
“The president falsely claimed on social media that the South African government was confiscating farmland, “
NYT liars. They are also killing the white farmers
Why move them here? Its just what the marxists want
Its their country as much, or more, than the marxist ANC
Rather, give them help, support and means to defend themselves.
We all know if the Afrikaaaners were useful to the US woke deep-state, USAID would have long-ago funded their own political party, an independence/homeland movement, would have armed them, would have created 100 global NGOs to support them.
Start them out as sharecroppers. Hit the ground running.

Because SA is a lost cause. Get those people out of there before the savages kill them.
The filthy NYT is as biased to the left as any publication could possibly be.
Here’s an article by Reuters about confiscation: (It’s a reality)

Whites are doomed in SA. They had damned well better get the heck out of that hellhole!
My previous post was an explanation how the NYT sources stories, based on reading X!
This “paper” has lost all shame long ago.
They even told on themselves. Trump is lying, but SA just passed a law allowing the government to confiscate land without compensation per the NYT’s article. The two statement are a paragraph apart in the same story.
Someone needs better proofreaders.
