Afrikaners are welcome, but Afghans are not: Noem will revoke Afghans' temporary protected status on 12 July, saying that there are "notable improvements" in Afghanistan's security and economy (which is crazy) 9,000 Afghans will now be deported back into Taliban hands, just an absolute betrayal

This is part of a Trump Day One EO. He shut down the refugee resettlement program and said that it could only come back once the program had been changed “to admit only those refugees who can fully and appropriately assimilate into the United States.” For Trump, that means Afrikaners.
