Trump Shames Media for Ignoring ‘Genocide’ of White Farmers: ‘If It Were the Other Way Around They’d Talk About It’

Published

President Donald Trump took a blistering shot at establishment media double standards in a fiery White House rebuke Monday.

While speaking at the White House, Trump took a moment to shame the media for the lack of attention given to some of the atrocities happening in South Africa against white Afrikaners — a topic the president cares deeply about.

“It’s a genocide that’s taking place that you people don’t want to write about,” the U.S. president told reporters. “But it’s a terrible thing that’s taking place. Farmers are being killed. They happen to be white.

“But whether they’re white or black, makes no difference to me. But white farmers are being brutally killed, and their land is being confiscated in South Africa.”

Trump then swiftly turned his ire toward the establishment double standard when it comes to race-based issues.

“And the newspapers, and the media, and the television media doesn’t even talk about it,” Trump continued. “If it were the other way around, they’d talk about it. That would be the only story they talk about.”

Trump finished by stressing: “I don’t care who they are, I don’t care about their race, their color, I don’t care about their height, their weight, I don’t care about anything.

“I just know that what’s happening is terrible. I have people that live in South Africa.

“They say it’s a terrible situation taking place. So we’ve essentially extended citizenship to those people, to escape from the violence and come here.”

In February, Trump signed an executive order that targeted South Africa for “egregious actions.”

“In shocking disregard of its citizens’ rights, the Republic of South Africa (South Africa) recently enacted Expropriation Act 13 of 2024 (Act), to enable the government of South Africa to seize ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation,” the order reads. “This Act follows countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education, and business, and hateful rhetoric and government actions fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners.”

(The order also accuses South Africa of supporting Hamas terrorists.)

Calling the policies “unjust and immoral,” Trump ordered that America suspend all aid and assistance to South Africa, while also ordering the resettlement of those affected.

A few months after that order, Trump took to Truth Social to lambaste the state of South Africa, accusing it of being unfit to host the G20 summit.

“How could we be expected to go to South Africa for the very important G20 Meeting when Land Confiscation and Genocide is the primary topic of conversation?” He posted in April. “They are taking the land of white Farmers, and then killing them and their families. The Media refuses to report on this.”

Trump’s rhetoric has incensed South African officials, who in turn have bad-mouthed the U.S. president. That has forced the hand of the Trump administration to crack down and bar certain Afrikaner officials from the country.

The first group of Afrikaners from South Africa arrived for resettlement Monday, and were greeted by Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau and Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Troy Edgar after they arrived at Washington Dulles International Airport in Dulles, Virginia.

Victor Reacts: No Serious Nation Would Allow Its Capital to Be Plagued by Crime and Homelessness (VIDEO)

Wanting to stop crime is racist? Wanting our nation’s capital to be a place where citizens can go and petition their government or speak to their elected officials without being robbed is racist?

Well, according to Democrat Representative Jim Clyburn those goals are equal to Jim Crow 2.0.

The Gateway Pundit reported,

South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn has insisted that President Trump’s cleanup of Washington D.C. amounts to Jim Crow 2.0.

Trump deployed the National Guard to the streets of Washington D.C. in order to crack down on soaring crime and homelessness.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez, Clyburn explained why this move represents a return to racial segregation of the past.

He explained: “You may recall, at the Democratic Convention, I spoke one evening and I said that Project 2025 is Jim Crow 2.0.”

The chair of the Washington police union, Greg Pemberton, has praised the intervention as a “a critical stopgap.”

“We stand with the President in recognizing that Washington, DC, cannot continue on this trajectory,” he said in a statement.

”Crime is out of control, and our officers are stretched beyond their limits.”

No serious nation would allow their capital to be plagued by homelessness and crime.

The President’s actions would not have been necessary if not for the failures of Democrat leadership in D.C.

DECLASSIFIED: Democrat Whistleblower Warned FBI That Adam Schiff Authorized Leaking Classified Information to Destroy Trump During Russia Hoax – Swalwell Also Played a Role in the Leaks

Published

By

An unidentified Democrat whistleblower told the FBI that then-Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff approved leaking classified information to smear Trump, according to newly declassified FBI 302 interview reports obtained by Just The News.

Beginning in 2017, the intel officer who worked on the House Intelligence Committee repeatedly told the FBI that Schiff authorized leaking classified information to destroy Trump during the Russiagate hoax.

The whistleblower said Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell was likely the source of the classified leaks.

At the time of the leaks, Adam Schiff served as the ranking member (and later the chairman) of the House Intelligence Committee. Schiff is now a US Senator for California.

The Gateway Pundit repeatedly reported on Schiff’s leaks to the media during the Trump-Russia witch hunt.

According to the newly declassified FBI report, DOJ officials did not show any interest in probing Schiff over his illegal leaks.

The whistleblower told the FBI as recent as 2023 that he personally witnessed Adam Schiff approve the leaking of classified information.

“When working in this capacity, [redacted staffer’s name] was called to an all-staff meeting by SCHIFF,” the interview report said, according to Just The News. “In this meeting, SCHIFF stated the group would leak classified information which was derogatory to President of the United States DONALD J. TRUMP. SCHIFF stated the information would be used to indict President TRUMP.”

The whistleblower also told federal agents that Schiff was promised the posiition as CIA Director if Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election.

The Democrat whistleblower was abruptly fired for reporting Schiff’s leaks to the FBI.

Just The News reported:

A career intelligence officer who worked for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee for more than a decade repeatedly warned the FBI beginning in 2017 that then-Rep. Adam Schiff had approved leaking classified information to smear then-President Donald Trump over the now-debunked Russiagate scandal, according to bombshell FBI memos that Director Kash Patel has turned over to Congress.

The FBI 302 interview reports obtained by Just the News state the intelligence staffer — a Democrat by party affiliation who described himself as a friend to both Schiff, now a California senator, and former Republican House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes — considered the classified leaking to be “unethical,” “illegal,” and “treasonous,” but was told not to worry about it because Schiff believed he would be spared prosecution under the Constitution’s speech and debate clause.

No publicly-disclosed opinion from the Attorney General or the Solicitor General can be found making that determination as a matter of law.

But officials told Just the News that DOJ officials showed little interest in pursuing Schiff when the allegations were brought to them years ago, citing the very same excuse the lawmaker had offered.

WashPost Editorial Board Complains Illegal DACAs Might Have to Pay Higher College Tuition, yet their Readers Disagree

Published

on

By

The U.S. Department of Education has opened investigations into five universities for offering scholarships that exclude U.S. citizens and legal residents in favor of undocumented students, including recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

The Washington Post’s editorial board complained about this today, saying that ‘helping undocumented students’ to ‘afford’ higher education ‘isn’t discrimination.’

The Trump Administration is arguing in court that prioritizing illegal aliens over American citizens is discriminatory against American students based on the protected class of ‘national origin.’

The Post utilizes several often-used left-wing memes related to immigrants, namely that these workers will ‘do the jobs Americans won’t do’ when it said: “The American Immigration Council reports that many of them go on to fill essential roles in health care, education and tech — sectors facing urgent workforce shortages.” The Post also uses the ‘diversity is our strength’ meme, when it says, “These immigrants make universities — and the country — richer, stronger and more intellectually vibrant.” The Post also uses the left-wing meme of ‘cost the U.S. government far less than they contribute, financially and otherwise,’ which has been repeatedly disproven.

The median federal student-loan balance held by U.S. citizen borrowers who attended government colleges is roughly $30,000 presently. The average cost of college tuition & fees at public 4-year institutions has risen 141.0% over the last 20 years.

Even in the comments attached to the Washington Post article, their own left-wing readers are not happy with their editorial stance. The Post’s own “AI-generated summary” of the comments characterizes that they “predominantly express strong opposition to universities providing scholarships to undocumented students” and summarize the comments as saying it’s unfair to prioritize non-citizen illegals over American citizens.

Even though the readership demographics of the Washington Post skew heavily left, with 59% identifying as liberal/progressive and only 11% as conservatives, their own readers were upset and angry with the paper’s position supporting illegal aliens over American kids:

State schools are typically heavily subsidized by state governments with tax dollars to provide lower-cost options for residents. The policy goal is to provide high-quality education to citizens who cannot afford it, but left-wing activists in college administrations and in the federal government, have been steering resources to illegal immigrants and their children instead.

The media typically refers to these children of illegals as “Dreamers,” a nickname that comes from the proposed DREAM Act (Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors), a never-passed bill that aimed to give certain undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children a path to legal status.

The universities under investigation are:

  • University of Michigan
  • University of Louisville
  • University of Nebraska Omaha
  • University of Miami
  • Western Michigan University

The investigations follow complaints from the Legal Insurrection Foundation, which argues that such scholarships violate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act by discriminating on the basis of national origin.

At the University of Michigan, the “Dreamer Scholarship” awarded $100,000 in 2023–2024 to undocumented students. The school distributed $855 million in total financial aid during the same year.

Undocumented students are ineligible for federal financial aid and typically rely on state support, institutional aid, and private scholarships. Several states, including Texas and Florida, have recently repealed laws granting in-state tuition to undocumented students.

There are an estimated 528,000 DACA recipients under age 18 at present according to federal data. Estimates of the total number of illegal immigrants in America range from 17 million to 29.5 million, with 7 million entering the country since Joe Biden’s Presidency started.

The Washington Post’s editorial board criticized the investigations, describing them as “absurd” and “cruel,” and argued that undocumented students contribute to the economy and fill roles in sectors facing worker shortages.

By taking heavily subsidized in-state tuition spots, accessing need-based and “Dream” grants, and enrolling without generating the federal reimbursements on which colleges depend, illegals simultaneously crowd out citizen students, shift fixed overhead onto the remaining reimbursable pool, and trigger new capital projects that are financed through higher tuition and fees, so every American on campus ends up paying a hidden surcharge that often runs into thousands of dollars annually.

Part of the media’s messaging on illegal immigration is to constantly claim, without evidence, that illegals are always cost-neutral or ‘pay their share of taxes.’ Yet studies show that illegal aliens are major ‘fiscal drains’ on the country’s public revenues. Estimates are that every illegal costs the country $10,400 per year, significantly depleting funds for K-12 education, hospitals, Medicaid, among other public assistance programs.

The Education Department has not announced when the investigations will conclude.

The Washington Post has an estimated daily circulation of 110,000, and 135,000 for its Sunday edition, and an estimated 2 million total subscribers both digital and online. It is owned by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos, who operates an Amazon PAC that gives equally to both parties. Amazon employees have historically given 85% of their campaign donations to Democrats. The Post endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016, Joe Biden in 2020, and Kamala Harris in 2024, through a signed piece and not through the editorial board.
