Media Falls Over Itself To Defend South African President– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

Last week, President Donald Trump confronted South African leaders over the alleged genocide taking place against white South African farmers. Trump presented South African leaders — and the media — with video evidence of racially charged rhetoric advocating for the murder of white farmers. One such video showed political leader Julius Malema leading chants of “kill the Boer” and “Revolution demands at some point there must be killing.”

The propaganda press were quick to not only dismiss the genocidal chants, but to defend South Africa’s president, Cyril Ramaphosa, who didn’t seem eager to confront and condemn the chants. Outlets dropped all pretense of objectivity to paint Ramaphosa as a measured statesman blindsided by Trump.

NPR’s Kate Bartlett wrote “South Africa’s president is praised for staying calm during Trump’s Oval Office ambush.” Bartlett praised Ramaphosa for keeping “his cool” and heralded him as “one of the key mediators in the talks that ended apartheid in 1994.”

The South African president rejected President Donald Trump’s assertion that the South African communist leader who leads chants about killing white farmers should be arrested.

President Cyril Ramaphosa met with President Trump last week in the White House, where he firmly denied the existence of a genocide or even targeted killings of white South African farmers known as the Boers.

‘It’s not meant to be a message that elicits or calls upon anyone to go and be killed.’

During their meeting, Trump suggested to Ramaphosa that the South African government should arrest Julius Malema, a political leader who has led chants of “shoot the Boer” and “shoot to kill” to a stadium full of supporters.

Upon returning to South Africa, Ramaphosa spoke to reporters about the idea of arrests and asserted that his country is a sovereign nation with its own laws and processes. He also excused the racist chants as freedom of expression.

Despite admitting that white people were having their land taken by the South African government as racial retribution, the leftist extremists of ABC’s The View opened Thursday’s show by arguing that not enough white people had been killed fast enough for it to be considered a “genocide” as President Trump said. According to their ghoulish hate, any suggestion otherwise was “false conspiracy theory.”

“THERE IS NO GENOCIDE!” moderator and racist, Whoopi Goldberg yelled as co-host Sara Haines suggested that over 1,300 targeted killings of white farmers were not enough to care about:

It was false conspiracy theory. The fact that the president was — the president of South Africa was trying to share was that data collected by white farmers themselves, these are the white farmers, has counted 1,363 white farmers murdered since 1990, which is an average of 40 a year. Far less than one percent of total murders. The rest are all black people! So, there’s no genocide going on.

She followed up by admitting that the lands owned by whites was indeed being taken away from them as a form of racial retribution, but it supposedly didn’t happen often and they were supposedly offered money.

“The government will occasionally come to remedy some of the problems with apartheid that happened for 50 years in that country, they will come and with compensation,” she argued. “They will take the land occasionally back. So, what he did was took two little seeds and just like did his own thing with that. He was completely false and wrong!”

We’re back for round two. NBC News’ Yamiche Alcindor got into a lengthy sparring session with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt over the footage President Donald Trump showed in the Oval Office on Wednesday with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa regarding reports of mass killings of white farmers.

There have been reports that this is a genocide, which has been denied by NGOs and even Afrikaners who were in the room as part of the South Africa delegation. What cannot be denied is that white farmers are being attacked and brutally murdered, which Alcindor tried to call unsubstantiated. Leavitt cited the Associated Press to support that killings are occurring, and they are.

A sampling of South Africans said that their country does not persecute white farmers after President Trump forced South African President Cyril Ramaphosa to watch evidence of the contrary at the White House.

Trump had his team turn down the lights and play a video that showed the gravesites of white South African farmers, known as Afrikaners, and other evidence of anti-white sentiments while the South African president looked on for more than four minutes.

‘We don’t have no separation in this country.’

The media was quick to play damage control over the fact that 10% of the South African government is occupied by the Economic Freedom Fighters, politicians who have explicitly called for the murder of whites.

Excerpt:

President Trump asked an aide to dim the lights of the Oval Office, and then, with a line of reporters in the room, proceeded to ambush the leader of South Africa.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and his delegation watched in stunned silence at footage that Trump believed supported his claims that Ramaphosa’s government was turning a blind eye to violence against white Afrikaners. When Trump identified images of crosses along a road as the marked graves of murdered white farmers, Ramaphosa said he hadn’t seen that before and would find out where it was filmed. The video also showed South African opposition leaders calling for the death of white farmers. Ramaphosa said he condemned those remarks and his political coalition had been built to sideline those calling for violence.

It was another tense confrontation between Trump and a U.S. ally, staged by the White House to air out those tensions in front of the world. Trump flipped through what he said were printed news articles about white farmers being killed. “Those people in many cases are being executed—they happen to be white and most of them happen to be farmers,” Trump said.

President Ramaphosa said that there is a lot of violent crime in the country but Black and white citizens are both targets. “There is criminality in our country. People who do get killed unfortunately through criminal activity are not only white people,” Ramaphosa told Trump.

Excerpt:

US President Donald Trump used a White House meeting to forcefully confront South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, accusing the country of failing to address Trump’s baseless claim of the systematic killing of white farmers.

In an astonishing display, Trump even dimmed the lights in the Oval Office to play a video of a far-left politician singing a song with the lyrics “kill the farmer.”

He also reviewed news articles to emphasise his argument, stating that the nation’s white farmers have encountered “death, death, death, horrible death.”

Trump had previously terminated all US aid to South Africa and extended a welcome to numerous white South African farmers, granting them refugee status in the United States, while advocating the notion that a “genocide” is unfolding in the nation.

The 47th US president has initiated a series of allegations against the Black-led government of South Africa, asserting that it is confiscating land from white farmers, implementing policies that are discriminatory towards whites, and adopting a foreign policy that is antagonistic towards Washington.

Which is worse: murdering people or a discussion attempting to end murders?

The shameless propaganda press heaped criticism on President Donald Trump on Wednesday for daring to talk with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa about alleged genocide in his country, reported by white South African farmers seeking refuge in the United States.

With coordinated messaging, the mighty propaganda brotherhood portrayed honest communication as a bad thing, calling the conversation an “ambush” over “debunked conspiracy theories.”

Minutes after the meeting, The New York Times characterized it as “contentious.” It wasn’t. Both Trump and Ramaphosa were polite and courteous throughout the discussion. The Times filed the story so quickly that it had no time to investigate. But it was still able to assert that Trump made “false genocide claims.”

Excerpt:

If you want to understand where the left’s obsession with racial “equity” and “reparations” leads to, look no further than South Africa — where white farmers are allegedly being murdered and face discrimination for the crime of being white. But good luck finding honest coverage of what’s transpiring there in the corporate media, which are hellbent on covering up or dismissing the reality so that Americans don’t begin to question the real goal of the left’s racial resentment agenda.

A new law in South Africa means white farmers could have their land taken away without being paid for it. As I previously reported, “Though framed as a correction to apartheid-era injustice, the law has created an environment where racially motivated persecution may become institutionalized.”

Meanwhile, murders are commonplace, with white farmers having allegedly been targeted.

The murders are not random — they are part of a growing pattern of violence toward Afrikaners that South African officials don’t want to acknowledge and that Western media outlets actively work to obscure.

President Donald Trump allowed South African President Cyril Ramaphosa to field a question from a member of the DNC Criminal media about Trump’s “unfounded” claims of white genocide in his country. Ramaphosa denied all claims, then was met by documents and videos revealing the white genocide is real and his own party called for the white farmer to be murdered.

Trump began his assault with this statement: “We have thousands of stories, talking about it, we have documentaries, we have news stories, and that… Is Natalie here? Is somebody here to turn that? I could show you a couple of things, and I would just… It has to be responded to. Let me see the articles please, if you would, and… excuse me, turn the lights down, turn the lights down and just put this on. It’s right behind you.”

It appears the predictability of the DNC Criminal Media allowed the Trump administration opportunity to set the trap the South African President and his Progressive media allows walked right into.

Excerpt:

President Trump is not your average politician. One of the things that sets him apart from almost all of his predecessors is that he’s not a politician, and he doesn’t tap-dance around sensitive issues, like the treatment of Boers (white farmers) in South Africa. In fact, during Wednesday’s Oval Office visit with the South African president, Cyril Ramaphosa, the South African leader faced more than a few uncomfortable moments – and that’s not a bad thing.

The American government has accepted a small group of Boer farmers as refugees into the United States; these are people who, in South Africa, were facing the prospect of having their lands stolen. They were facing murder. These families, we should note, have in many cases been in South Africa for hundreds of years, and they grow many of the crops that feed South Africans of all races.

During that visit, President Trump gobsmacked President Ramaphosa with a video of political rallies in South Africa, including chants of “Kill the Boer.” Townhall has the shocking video on their X account:

Excerpt:

President Donald Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa about claims of a white genocide by showing video footage in the Oval Office of alleged burial sites of white farmers.

“Turn the lights down and just put this on,” Trump said as he directed Ramaphosa to watch a video montage of political rallies with widespread chants of “kill the farmer!” and images of grave sites.

“These are burial sites right here…. Over a thousand of white farmers,” Trump pointed out to the president, who had denied claims of genocide, saying murder and crime are not unique to white farmers.

Following the video’s conclusion, Trump showed printouts of news articles on persecution as Ramaphosa urged a calm dialogue on the subject.

“What you saw, the speeches that were being made, one that is not government policy,” Ramaphosa told Trump of those calling for killings. “We have a multi-party democracy in South Africa that allows people to express themselves, political parties to adhere to various policies. And in many cases, or in some cases, those policies do not go along with government policy.

Democrats continue to mindlessly oppose everything President Donald Trump does, even policies they have rabidly supported for years.

Normally extreme supporters of open borders and immigration without limitation, Democrats suddenly oppose Trump’s executive order giving Afrikaners refugee status.

Their bigoted objection? The color of the refugees’ skin. Afrikaners, a persecuted minority ethnic group, are white South Africans with Dutch ancestry and an old European culture.

The government of South Africa has made it legal to take Afrikaners’ farmland without compensation. Trump’s order offers “Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination” refugee resettlement in the United States.

But their suffering can never compare, apparently, to the millions of other people with darker skin who are persecuted around the globe. Democrats believe they all should be given unfettered entrance into the U.S.

President Donald Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with a video of South African communists calling for the murder of white farmers.

Just watch. You’ll notice Ramaphosa sometimes just listening to the video, not watching it.

Trump told Ramaphosa:

Now this is very bad. These are burial sites right here. Burial sites — over a thousand — of White farmers. And those cars are lined up to pay love on a Sunday morning. Each one of those white things you see is a cross. And there is approximately a thousand of them.

They’re all White farmers. The family of White farmers. And those cars aren’t, driving, they are stopped there to pay respects to their family member who was killed. And it’s a terrible sight. I’ve never seen anything like it. On both sides of the road, you have crosses. Those people are all killed.

In March, President Donald Trump announced a full halt to U.S. foreign aid to South Africa, citing the government’s racially charged abuse of white Afrikaner farmers. He blasted the regime for orchestrated land seizures and escalating violence, calling the country “a bad place to be right now.” At the same time, he offered a fast track to U.S. citizenship for South African farmers and their families seeking safety from persecution.

The black-led South African government has flatly denied any campaign of anti-white violence, brushing off the attacks as fiction and painting any criticism as offensive. But the facts on the ground — brutal murders, farm invasions, and open calls for land expropriation — tell a different story.

On Wednesday, in a high-stakes Oval Office meeting, Trump directly challenged South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with hard evidence of racially motivated violence. While the media works overtime to downplay the confrontation, Trump once again cut through the diplomatic spin and forced an uncomfortable truth into the open.

President Trump on Wednesday held a bilateral meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa amid the genocide of White Afrikaner farmers. 

During the meeting, Trump played a compilation of Africans calling for the genocide of White Afrikaners after Ramaphosa told reporters that President Trump is wrong about the genocide and needs to “listen” to South Africans. .

The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on the White genocide in South Africa.

South Africa: Attackers Chant “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer” Before Stabbing Woman with Spear

Leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters party, Julius Malema, has infamously led chants and songs calling for White farmers to be murdered. The video that Trump played featured a compilation of Malema, calling to “shoot to kill” and “kill the boer, the farmer,” and others calling for White farmer genocide in South Africa.

South Africa doesn’t have the funds to cover the over $430 million shortfall caused by the Trump administration’s cuts in foreign aid, the country’s finance minister said Wednesday.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana spoke to Parliament while presenting an updated budget — one without the value-added tax increases that had sparked public outcry and fierce disagreement among parties in the ruling coalition.

Without that tax revenue, he said, South Africa doesn’t have enough money to make up for the cuts that have threatened the vast network of support for one of the world’s largest HIV-positive populations.

The country runs the largest treatment network in the world.

The finance minister spoke shortly before President Cyril Ramaphosa’s much-anticipated meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House.

Excerpt:

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa met Wednesday with President Donald Trump and discussed various matters in the Oval Office. While the socialist leader sought to steer the conversation to other issues, including trade, Trump pressed him about the mistreatment and murder of white Afrikaner farmers, who are also known as Boers.

Ramaphosa, who recently ratified a land-confiscation law that could easily be weaponized against white farmers, suggested that if there were a genocide of Afrikaners under way, his ministers present with him in the Oval Office would have left their posts. He suggested further that Trump could benefit from hearing his ministers’ perspectives on the matter.

“We have thousands of stories talking about it, and we have documentaries. We have news stories,” said Trump, evidently not buying what Ramaphosa was selling. “It has to be responded to.”

Trump then had his team dim the lights and roll footage of the reality the South African president and elements of the Western liberal media are apparently keen to gloss over.
