SOUTH AFRICA: President Trump Signs EO to Accept 17,500 Afrikaner Refugees while ANC Minister Accuses MAGA of “Attacking Black People” –

USA Responds with a Zinger!

The Trump administration intends to accept a further 10,000 Afrikaner refugees into the United States in addition to the 6,000 Afrikaners already accepted, raising the 2026 cap to 17,500. Meanwhile, several patriotic Afrikaner organizations appealed to President Trump to help Afrikaners stay in their ancestral home.

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced he was increasing the refugee cap for white South Africans because of “an unforeseen emergency refugee situation”, signing an executive order to “increase the ceiling to 17,500.” Trump blamed the South African government for “recent increases in the incitement of racially motivated violence”.

Presidential Determination No. 2026-14 of May 21, 2026 finds that “an unforeseen emergency refugee situation now exists due to recent increases in the incitement of racially motivated violence on the part of the Government of South Africa.”

“I hereby determine that the admission to the United States of Afrikaners from South Africa in response to this emergency is justified by the grave humanitarian concerns … and that an increase in the ceiling to 17,500 is warranted”, President Trump wrote.

Afrikaner X page Volkstaat reports 500 Afrikaners leaving from Johannesburg International Airport OR Tambo every other day.

It'll be Wakanda in 20 years!

Hooray! Refugee status for white people being persecuted and killed by black people. As far as I know Trump has slammed shut the refugee door that brought in useless people like Somalians. Instead the door is open for South Africa whites, who are productive but persecuted.

Soon? South Africa is a hellhole.

It's worse than LA and San Francisco combined.

South Africa has big-time problems with illegals from the rest of the continent coming into the country.

Pretty much so. Tribes from the north moved south to work in Dutch and English agriculture, mines, industry. They came and their labor was needed.

The skilled farmers will find work quickly in the USA. The pending problems with access to diesel and fertilizers will present a challenge for farmers whether native US citizens or immigrants from SA.

They also brought in a lot of Indians. Mahatma Gandhi grew up in South Africa, and was a lawyer there.

I will not be donating for any food aid when SA experiences its self driven famine in 20 years or less.

SA will be the 21st century’s Rhodesia. The famine will not be a tragedy, it will be a condemnation.

REAGAN WAS RIGHT, and it had nothing to do with race.

I think I’m on board with bringing in thousands of blue-eyed, blonde, hard-working people.

Its sad that they have to leave the land their families have lived on for 400 years but South Africa is simply not salvageable. I’ll be more than happy to welcome all 4.5 million Afrikaners to America.

“You’re attacking black people by taking away our white victims”. Probably what they meant.
