In a move that’s stirring the pot in global diplomacy—but receiving high praise from conservatives, nationalists, and realists alike—President Donald Trump’s administration is officially moving forward with plans to resettle increasingly racially persecuted white South Africans, specifically Afrikaners, in the United States.
The first group of refugees is expected to arrive in the United States any day now, The New York Times reports, citing several leaked government memos.
While the globalist media squawks, conservatives across the U.S. and Europe are hailing the move as a long-overdue response to the violent racial persecution of an ethnic minority left to fend for itself in a crumbling, post-apartheid South Africa. The victims? White farmers—the very backbone of South Africa’s food supply, many of whom trace their ancestry back to Dutch and French settlers.
“These people are being systematically targeted,” President Trump said, slamming the South African government’s land expropriation without compensation policies. “They’re not just being pushed off their land—they’re being erased from the future of their country.”
In February, Trump signed an executive order calling out “disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners” and cutting off U.S. aid to South Africa.
The plan, quietly detailed in a memo from Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy and Refugee Resettlement head Andrew Gradison, outlines the immediate resettlement of up to 1,000 Afrikaners.
Emergency refugee funds are already being mobilized to ensure they arrive safely. The first flights are scheduled to touch down at Dulles International Airport, where federal officials are expected to greet the new arrivals.
But here’s what the mainstream press won’t tell you: interest in Trump’s offer has exploded. The U.S. Embassy in Pretoria confirmed it’s received a list of nearly 70,000 white South Africans expressing interest in the program. That list, passed along by the South African Chamber of Commerce in the U.S., doesn’t even include formal applications—just desperate families searching for hope.
Afrikaners have been caught in the crossfire of South Africa’s failed multicultural experiment. Once thriving farmers, many are now targeted by explicitly anti-white government policies, plagued by violent land invasions, and demonized by a government bent on revenge, not reconciliation.
The so-called Land Expropriation Act—signed into law in January—allows for farmland seizures without compensation under the guise of “public interest.” In reality, it’s a racially motivated land grab.
“Trump’s policy is a bold, necessary correction,” said a spokesperson for the Chamber of Commerce. “While the West bends over backward to help every other group under the sun, these people—Christian, European, hard-working—have been abandoned. Not anymore.”
Predictably, the South African Foreign Ministry tried to spin the narrative, accusing the U.S. of “factual inaccuracy” and brushing off concerns as “colonial nostalgia.” But they can’t hide the truth: crime and anti-white hostility are out-of-control, and even Elon Musk, himself a South African-born, has hinted at the dangers facing his people.
By resettling white South Africans, Trump is sending a loud, clear message: America stands with those who respect the rule of law, love their culture, and just want to live in peace. In a world where globalist elites preach inclusion while turning a blind eye to violence against Christians and those with European ancestry, Trump’s America First vision is cutting through the noise.
