In a display of blatant hypocrisy, MSNBC’s Yamiche Alcindor took to the airwaves to express her outrage after the Trump administration welcomed 59 white South African refugees fleeing violence and persecution in their homeland. These refugees, who arrived in Washington, D.C., waving American flags, were greeted by Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau and DHS Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar—a move that clearly triggered the liberal media.
Alcindor, known for her leftist bias, whined, “So the Trump admin, they’re saying that essentially these white South Africans assimilate better, and they’re also not as much of a security risk. That’s really causing a lot of people to be appalled, frankly.” Her remarks reveal the double standard of the liberal establishment, which champions open borders for some but recoils when white refugees seek safety in America.

Women and children. Fathers who have stable jobs. Not one single gang tattoo. Everyone is waving an American flag.

She further attempted to downplay the plight of these refugees by claiming, “I’ve been hearing from people that say there is violence in South Africa, but it’s affecting everybody of every single race.” This dismissive rhetoric ignores the well-documented, targeted attacks against white South African farmers, who face brutal land seizures, torture, and murder under the ANC government’s policies. The Trump administration, unlike the leftist media, recognizes the urgency of this crisis and has taken decisive action to protect those fleeing racial persecution.

NEW: MSNBC's Yamiche Alcindor hyperventilates over the White South Africans who were granted refugee status by Trump.

President Trump has consistently prioritized the safety and security of persecuted groups, regardless of race, while ensuring that immigration policies serve America’s national interests. Unlike the Democrats, who exploit immigration for political gain, Trump’s policies are rooted in fairness and common sense. The liberal media’s outrage over these refugees is nothing more than another attempt to smear a president who refuses to bow to their radical agenda.
