The Trump regime has made great efforts to facilitate the swift resettlement of white…

but I *am* sure he is building himself a white, nazi army, loyal only to him... not to ANY country. He didn't have enough native born white supremacists to do what he wants to do. And THAT should be a worry to everyone who is not a nazi. To me, this means he doesn't believe he can count on our military to be loyal to him, regardless of how many firings and resignations and other changes he's made to our military. There are still too many who believe in their oath to protect the constitution for his comfort. So, he's bringing in the one white race still around with a history of doing what he wants to accomplish -- American genocide against ALL real patriots.

Wonder what religion these nazi's believe in? They don't practice ANY good religion's precepts - which is a perfect fit for atheist trump. But I'd like to know how many of these would fall in with the Dominionists plans for domination and control of a theocratic autocracy.

realize that they'll have to speak English, the language the most rabid Afrikaners love to hate.

I hope the next Dem president revokes their status in States.

Refugees. From what?

Again, instead of OUR tax $$$ serving worthwhile causes, they are wasting our money on parades, statues, & now importing magats.

Any chance they are related to floeon, thiel, et al?

If they're whining that they're the victim of something, it's something they're doing...or plan to do. To the rest of us.

Can we report (without evidence, of course) that " They're eating the cats! They're eating the dogs!!"?
I mean, isn't that the traditional American welcoming greeting for our immigrants?

While this should open a dialogue woubt the validitiy of extreme economic hardship as a reason to claim refugee status, it is only this group of people (so far) who are being allowed to claim it, and that is clearly wrong.

The reason why they're being brought in while Haitians and Venezuelans and other melanin-rich people are not is Elon Musk.

Few of the white people linving in squats and worse in South Africa had anything to do with apartheit. Still, there needs to be a real conversaton about why poor white people are being shoved to the head of the line ahead of other peor people.

Right, Elon? You want them this bad, you can feed, house, and employ them until they get on their feet. You can certainly afford it.
