Isn't this why God invented Zulus? Airdrop them in armed and unleash them on the fatted bush league 65 IQers. Nothing like a good Heglelian Tribal slaughter to take the heat off the farmers.
President Donald Trump is reportedly looking to reduce annual refugee admissions by 94 percent compared to former President Joe Biden’s last year in office.
According to a report from the New York Times, Trump will reduce the refugee resettlement program’s annual cap to 7,500 admissions after Biden imported more than 100,000 refugees in Fiscal Year 2024 alone.
The refugee resettlement cap is merely a numerical limit and does not serve as a figure to be reached like a goal.
Most of the slots, according to the Times, would be reserved for South Africans who are the descendants of Dutch and French settlers.
Already this year, the Trump administration has welcomed such South Africans to the United States as refugees — a move that came with rebuke from the establishment media, Democrats, and refugee agencies, even as the refugees faced racial discrimination and violence in their home country.
The Trump administration is drastically cutting the number of refugees it will admit to the United States, rejecting thousands of people fleeing war and persecution while reserving the record-low number of slots for mostly white Afrikaner South Africans.
The administration lowered the ceiling of refugee admissions to just 7,500 for the fiscal year that started this month, down from the cap of 125,000 set by the Biden administration last year, according to a notice in the Federal Register posted Thursday.
The notice made plans official that had been in the works for months. They overhaul a program that for decades made the U.S. a sanctuary from persecution and turn it into one that gives preference to English speakers and white people overseas whom President Donald Trump has pledged to protect.
Maybe a separate homeland for whites is a good answer.

Trump earlier this year designated the lowest refugee cap in history, directing that the majority of the 7,500 slots go to white South Africans.

First white South African 'refugees' arrive in US as Trump claims they face 'genocide'
The Trump administration has welcomed 59 white South Africans it has granted refugee status in the US for being deemed victims of racial discrimination, Reuters reports, in a move that has drawn criticism from Democrats and stirred confusion in South Africa.
Donald Trump has blocked mostly non-white refugee admissions from the rest of the world – even those fleeing war – but in February offered to resettle Afrikaners, the descendants of mostly Dutch settlers, saying they faced discrimination.
Asked on Monday why white South Africans were being prioritized above the victims of famine and war elsewhere in Africa, Trump claimed, without providing evidence, that Afrikaners were being killed. “It’s a genocide that’s taking place,” Trump told reporters at the White House, going further than he has previously in echoing rightwing tropes about their alleged persecution.
He was not favoring Afrikaners because they are white, Trump said, adding that their race “makes no difference to me”.
South Africa maintains there is no evidence of persecution and that claims of a “white genocide” in the country have not been backed up by evidence. Treating white South Africans as refugees fleeing oppression has drawn alarm and ridicule from South African authorities, who say the Trump administration has waded into a domestic issue it does not understand.
A state department official said the charter plane carrying the first 59 Afrikaners brought under Trump’s offer had landed at Washington Dulles airport. Some were heading to Democratic-leaning Minnesota, which has a reputation for welcoming refugees, while others planned to go to Republican-led states such as Idaho and Alabama, sources told Reuters.
Democratic senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, the most senior Democrat on the Senate foreign relations committee, called the move “baffling”. In a statement on Monday she said:
