US boots South African ambassador for saying imply issues about Trump

Donald Trump lackey and Secretary of State Marco Rubio has expelled Emrahim Rasool, South Africa’s ambassador to the USA, the Related Press reported. The overseas diplomat misplaced his diplomatic privileges and immunity on Monday and should depart the nation by Friday. His transgression: not being sufficiently pro-Trump.


South Africa’s Ambassador to the U.S. Ebrahim Rasool speaks on the South African Embassy in Washington on Dec. 6, 2013.

Within the X put up, Rubio linked to an article from the right-wing white supremacist outlet Breitbart, which mentioned that Rasool gave a speech through which he criticized Trump, the Make America Nice Once more motion, and co-President Elon Musk.

Rasool mentioned that the MAGA motion is a response “not simply to a supremacist instinct,” however a response to altering demographics in the USA, “in which the voting electorate in the USA is projected to become 48% white and that the possibility of a majority of minorities is looming on the horizon.”

“It’s no accident that Elon Musk has involved himself in UK politics, and elevated a Nigel Farage and the Reform movement, in much the same way that it was instructive that on his way to the Munich security summit, Vice President Vance addressed the [far-right party] Alternative für Deutschland to strengthen them in their election campaign,” Rasool added. “And that, then, begins to say, what was the role then of Afrikaners in that whole makeup. And very clearly, it’s to project white victimhood as a dog whistle that there is a global protective movement that is beginning to envelop embattled white communities or apparently embattled white communities.”

These feedback are apparently what prompted Rubio’s bombastic social media put up.

“We made the embassy aware that Ambassador Rasool has been found unacceptable by the United States to be a representative of his country,” the State Division mentioned in a press release to the Related Press.

That is the newest spat between the USA and South Africa since Trump took workplace.

In February, Rubio introduced he was skipping the G20 summit of world leaders in Johannesburg as a result of he mentioned South Africa helps “DEI and climate change” and that his “job is to advance America’s national interests, not waste taxpayer money or coddle anti-Americanism.” 

In that announcement, Rubio additionally parroted Trump’s lie that South Africa is “confiscating land” from white Afrikaners, the descendants of the white Dutch settlers who’re answerable for South Africa’s racist apartheid authorities.

That very same month, Trump reduce off funding to South Africa and prioritized accepting Afrikaners as refugees to the USA, accusing the present Black-majority South African authorities of “seize[ing] ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation.” 

“South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY,” Trump wrote in a Fact Social put up in February. “The United States won’t stand for it, we will act. Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!”

The Trump administration’s focusing on of South Africa coincides with Musk’s outsized function in the USA authorities—and that’s no precise coincidence.

Musk is a South African who espouses white supremacist views and even makes Nazi salutes. The multibillionaire proprietor of X has been in Trump’s ear since his profitable 2024 election marketing campaign, which Musk helped bankroll with greater than $277 million. 

On Monday, State Division spokeswoman Tammy Bruce claimed that Rasool’s expulsion had nothing to do along with his Trump criticism.

Possibly—and listen to us out right here—if Trump and his supporters didn’t espouse white supremacist views, they wouldn’t have their emotions damage when individuals rightly level out their racism.
