This doesn’t just gut refugee admissions — it creates a race-based system that prioritizes white South Africans over people facing real danger in their home countries.
An insult to everything we stand for. Trump is burying Ronald Reagan’s vision of America as a “shining city on a hill.”

Understanding #public knowledge is a great place to start - how about it, #Sarah #Longwell and #JVL?
