Liberal Hypocrisy: The Meltdown Over Trump Granting Persecuted Afrikaners Asylum
13th May 2025
Donald Trump finally found the one group of foreign-born refugees that the American Left doesn’t like: white South Africans.
The president welcomed a few dozen Afrikaner farmers to Washington this week, offering them refuge from deadly persecution in their home country, South Africa. The media, naturally, went crazy, implying that Trump must be a racist for bringing in white people while clamping down on the influx of non-white asylum seekers.
The Episcopal Church, the national standard-bearer for woke Christianity, ended its decades-long contract with the U.S. government to help refugees settle in America over the arrival of the Afrikaners, citing “moral opposition” to helping them resettle. The Episcopalians—a wealthy but fast-shrinking denomination whose membership in the U.S. is 90% white—are thrilled to show mercy to foreigners fleeing persecution … but not white ones.
