President Donald Trump’s overhaul of US refugee policies has created a major shift in the number and nationalities of people admitted to the country, US government data shows.
Since October 2025, 4,499 refugees were resettled in the US, according to the Refugee Processing Center. All, except three from Afghanistan, were South African.
In the last full fiscal year of the Biden administration, which started in October 2023, 125,000 people were accepted from 85 countries.
Last year, Trump halted all refugee admissions, including for applicants from warzones, but allowed Afrikaners, a white minority group he said was persecuted, to seek resettlement. South Africa objected to his characterisation.



That sounds like a them problem. Really. If they can’t read a comment that freaking short before jumping ship then don’t interact with it at all.
It’s a different user. I’m a third different user. Maybe read the whole thing before criticizing so strongly??
It is, but the same people that refuses to use the sarcasm indicator are the same ones that complains when people miss their sarcasm. I always say there is a non-zero chance people will miss the tone when reading text, so don’t complain when people do when you refuse to use the sarcasm indicator. If you’re gonna complain about it, it is now a your problem, as well.
You’re right. I should have gone back to the original comment and read the username before replying. I’m surprised how many different people are reacting so defensively for a joke comment they didn’t make.
The /s indicator is standard for a reason. All these jokers giving you crap act like they’ve never heard of Poes law.
