A plane of at least 59 White South Africans arrived at Dulles International Airport on Monday, following President Donald Trump’s decision to grant them protected refugee status — citing South Africa’s “egregious discrimination.”
The Afrikaners, a South African ethnic group descended primarily from Dutch, French, and German settlers, were greeted by U.S. officials — including Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, and Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Troy Edgar.
“They tell quite harrowing stories of the violence that they faced in South Africa that was not redressed by the authorities by the unjust application of the law,” Landau stated. “The United States, as we were proud to say, has stood for equal justice under law and the fair and impartial application of the law.”
President Donald Trump signed an executive order in February halting all foreign aid to South Africa, as the nation has allowed continuous violent attacks on the minority White Afrikaner farmers, while introducing a land expropriation law allowing the nation to “seize ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation.”
“White farmers are being brutally killed, and their land is being confiscated in South Africa – and the newspapers and the media – television media doesn’t talk about it. If it was ‘the other way around’ they’d talk about it, that would be the only story they’d talk about,” Trump said. “I [know] people that live in South Africa – they say it’s a terrible situation taking place so we’ve essentially extended citizenship to those people to escape from that violence.”
“It’s a genocide that’s taking place and you people don’t want to write about,” he continued. “Farmers are being killed.”
Since 1994, many Afrikaners have reported facing immense discrimination...

I know two people here that this affects. Two of the most high quality people you’ll ever meet.
Correct.
Did anyone tell that they can be paid for not farming? Did anyone explain subsidies to grow corn, subsidies to set aside growing acres, subsidies for windmills on the same land paid not to grow?
Give them weapons and communications gear, and send them back.
Hopefully, they have enough common sense to evaluate the offers made to them.
One person of the nurses tending to my mother in her final hospital stay was from South Africa. Wonderful lady and a fantastic nurse.
That said, I can’t resist this. Did they travel on Air Afrikaans?

“If you don’t eat beef and you don’t eat cow, how can you be alive?”
Farmland cost in south Africa
Best of the best approximately $2,480 to $3,100 per acre.
So if white south africanus can sell say 400 acres it is not enough to even start a farm in the US or Canada. Its the last generation the of family working in the industry.
The skill set of a farmer on the other hand, with American travel papers, a healthy credit record and a US bank account are applicable worldwide.
Maybe give 'em a real Deal, three for one!
Having spent time in South Africa I think I have a slightly deeper understanding of the country than the “typical” Westerner.IMO every damn white person would be very wise indeed to get the hell out of there...like tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the apostate Episcopal “Church” has gone out of the refugee resettlement service, because they refuse to recognize white Afrikaners as refugees!
If their favorites, the South African blacks, are doing the persecuting, it’s not considered persecution at all!
Our US authorities should also enable Afrikaner refugees to get back into farming, not “entry-level warehouse work”!
WOW... I’d never seen that before. Freakin’ hilarious...
No evidence exists to say that you are wrong.
As I wrote earlier I've spent time in SA and there are,in fact,some excellent people there.
Met a guy on FR who was farming in Ukraine, or was it Russia, and was killing it.
Glad you enjoyed it. Full version here:

“But frankly, sir, that is a cheap suit and you can’t afford me. And you won’t be getting any nuts.”
Given what they've been through, I suspect they'll figure things out pretty quickly.
Exactly! As more whites leave, the remaining ones will be in ever increasing danger.
Also, while the refugees here are few in number, they will be subject to doxxing and other attacks by the leftist filth here in America. As their numbers increase, the pressure on them will hopefully dissipate.
“...Maybe we could select certain Negros and send them to South Africa in exchange....”
Maybe a hundred ghettopotomai for 1 Africaner?
Sounds like a win/win.
The most sacred ghettopotomai get to freely roam to their little heart’s conent within their original natural habitat, and in return, we get some darn good farmers...
