Trump Repeats White Genocide Conspiracy at Davos

President Donald Trump reiterated the white genocide conspiracy theory at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland on Wednesday, claiming that white people in South Africa are "being systematically targeted and killed." When asked by a reporter if white genocide was occurring in South Africa, Trump stated, "What's happening in South Africa is terrible" and asserted, "We have seen the numbers, we have seen the records, and it is taking place," without providing evidence or specifics.

Trump has previously promoted this false narrative, telling South African President Cyril Ramaphosa at the White House that he possessed a video showing "burial sites" of "over 1,000" white farmers—a claim The New York Times reported was fabricated. Multiple media outlets have debunked Trump's claims through fact-checking, contradicting his repeated assertions that white farmers are being "brutally killed" and their land confiscated as part of a systematic genocide.

In 2025, Trump drastically reduced refugee admissions to 7,500 from the previous 125,000, reserving record-low slots predominantly for white Afrikaner South Africans. Trump claimed this action was necessary because white farmers faced persecution, though he later stated race made "no difference" in the decision. The U.S. State Department labeled Afrikaners a "racial minority" facing "government-sponsored race-based discrimination," validating Trump's framing of the issue.

Trump also boycotted the G20 Summit in South Africa, stating the U.S. would not attend because the country "refuses to acknowledge or address the horrific Human Rights Abuses endured by Afrikaners." This selective focus on white South Africans while disregarding documented violence affecting other populations aligns with white nationalist rhetoric that weaponizes real land reform debates to advance supremacist agendas.

The white genocide conspiracy theory is a political myth rooted in ethnic hatred and pseudoscience, designed to justify white nationalist commitments and calls to violence. Trump's amplification of this baseless theory at an international forum legitimizes extremist propaganda and contradicts factual reality: white people are not facing extermination or systematic elimination in South Africa or elsewhere.

Trump Attacks Somalis as Only ‘Good at Pirating Ships’

President Donald Trump made dehumanizing remarks about Somalia and Somali people during a White House press briefing on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, declaring that Somalis are “good at” only “pirating ships.” Trump appeared in the briefing room to mark his first year back in office and highlighted ICE arrests of undocumented immigrants before pivoting to attacks on the East African nation and its diaspora in the United States.

Trump described Somalia as “a terrible, terrible place” and “probably the worst country” in the world, using explicit language to disparage its governance and institutions. He stated: “They don’t have government, they don’t have anything…They don’t have police, they don’t have military, they don’t have anything. They just have people running around killing each other and trying to pirate ships.” Trump also announced his administration had “halted” all refugee applications from Somalia, framing the policy as a victory.

The president directly attacked Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN), a Somali American who immigrated to the United States in the 1990s, calling her country “backward” and describing her as an anti-Semite who “complains” about America. Trump stated he “can’t stand” Omar and has intensified criticism of her, Minnesota, and Somali Americans over recent weeks. His remarks follow similar inflammatory language at a Pennsylvania rally targeting Omar and her Somali heritage.

Trump’s January rhetoric mirrors December 2025 statements in which he declared he did not want Somali immigrants in the United States, claiming they are “ripping off” the country and “contribute nothing.” These comments were amplified following media reports of a fraud scheme in Minnesota allegedly involving members of the Somali community, which Trump has used to justify broad xenophobic generalizations about an entire ethnic group.

Trump’s characterizations contradict the documented reality that Somalia faces severe state fragility and corruption, issues documented by international watchdog organizations like Transparency International, but do not reflect the agency, contributions, or diversity of millions of Somali citizens and diaspora members. His rhetoric functions to dehumanize an ethnic and religious minority, building political support through racial stereotyping while implementing restrictive immigration policies.

The US government seems to have a clear message for white nationalists | CNN Politics

The Department of Homeland Security is recruiting immigration enforcement agents using language and imagery tied to white nationalist ideology. A DHS recruiting poster declares "America has been invaded by criminals and predators" and urges applicants to "get them out," while another features a cowboy and bomber jet with the phrase "We'll have our home again"—language documented by the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism as having ties to white nationalist and supremacist groups in the US and Canada, including the Proud Boys.

The phrase "We'll have our home again" echoes replacement theory, the white supremacist belief that white Americans are being displaced, which has been promoted by figures including Elon Musk. Cynthia Mills-Idriss, director of the Polarization and Extremism Research & Innovation Lab at American University, explained that coded language creates "plausible deniability" while signaling to those familiar with extremist terminology that they are welcome to apply for government positions. Right-wing accounts on social media are now amplifying these official DHS posts.

William Galey Simpson’s “Which Way, Western Man?” (especially Chapters 16–17) argues that “civilizational decline” is fundamentally biological and demographic: nations rise or fall based on “breeding stock,” differential birthrates, and the need to preserve a “thoroughbred” in-group against dilution—an explicitly eugenic worldview he even pairs with proposed state machinery like special “Eugenics Courts.”  The Trump-era ecosystem echoes that structure through dog-whistle signaling and rhetoric: official DHS/White House memes using “Which way, ___ man?” are widely analyzed as a deliberate nod to Simpson’s title and its white-nationalist subculture, while Trump’s repeated “blood/genes” language (“racehorse theory,” “bad genes,” “poisoning the blood”) and the Fox/Tucker “replacement” frame translate the same demographic panic into mainstream politics—then operators like Stephen Miller, documented circulating white-nationalist/anti-immigrant material, help turn it into enforcement posture and recruitment culture.

The Trump administration has also officially adopted the term "remigration," which echoes far-right ideologies with roots in Nazi ethnic cleansing. The term describes the administration's mass deportation policy and encourages self-deportation, but borrows directly from white nationalist movements in Europe. The State Department is creating an "Office of Remigration" to implement this framework, according to Wendy Via, CEO and co-founder of GPAHE, who characterized it as "a plan for ethnic cleansing" that has become "normalized" and "commonplace."

The Washington Post reported that DHS plans a $100 million "wartime recruitment" effort including geotargeting attendees at NASCAR, UFC, and rodeo events—venues associated with conservative demographics—and hiring online influencers to spread recruitment messaging. DHS declined to comment on whether the coded language was intentional or whether recruitment content was designed to appeal to white nationalists.

Similar messaging extends beyond DHS: the Department of Labor posted a video featuring a statue of George Washington with the tagline "One Homeland. One People. One Heritage" and the message "Remember who you are." According to critics cited in the article, this "one heritage" being promoted by the Trump administration does not reflect immigrants from the past century or those from non-European backgrounds. Via stated that these are not isolated incidents but "a concerted effort to create these type of recruitment ads" designed to signal to white nationalists that the federal government shares their agenda.

Trump Admin Posts Echo White Supremacist Rhetoric

The Trump administration is deploying recruitment campaigns and official posts across federal departments that incorporate imagery, slogans, and rhetoric linked to white supremacist and extremist movements, according to PBS reporting and analysis by Cynthia Miller-Idriss of American University’s Polarization and Extremism Research Innovation Lab. An ICE recruitment advertisement features the phrase “We will have our home again,” a direct reference to a white supremacist anthem favored by the Proud Boys, while the Department of Labor distributed messaging stating “One homeland, one people, one heritage” alongside heroic depictions of white men. Administration posts also invoke “Trust the plan,” the QAnon conspiracy theory slogan tied to the January 6 Capitol attack, which posits a global cabal of pedophiles and deep state actors that Trump is fighting.

Extremist symbols have surfaced across multiple federal agencies, including the “An Appeal to Heaven” flag, which was carried by January 6 rioters and adopted by evangelical Christian nationalist groups and neo-Nazi organizations. Miller-Idriss identified this pattern as part of a propaganda campaign to reposition ICE operations as serving the public interest while employing dog whistles and explicit racist and conspiratorial messaging. The administration is simultaneously rewriting January 6 history on a newly published website, blaming Democrats for security failures and justifying pardons for over 1,500 defendants involved in the insurrection.

President Trump stated in a New York Times interview that the civil rights movement “hurt a lot of people” and constituted “reverse discrimination” against whites denied college admission or jobs. Billionaire Elon Musk endorsed this framing by endorsing a post claiming “If white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered. White solidarity is the only way to survive”—the Great Replacement Theory, a white nationalist conspiracy falsely asserting intentional replacement of the white population. Miller-Idriss connected this conspiracy theory to terrorist attacks in Pittsburgh, El Paso, Buffalo, Christchurch, and Oslo, resulting in hundreds of deaths.

Miller-Idriss characterized the shift as a “turning point in the propaganda campaign,” driven by ICE’s 57 percent disapproval rating and public awareness of agency abuses circulated through cell phone video. She identified Trump’s statements as an “unedited version” of a longstanding belief system that white men are losing ground, now openly expressed without prior hedging. The administration simultaneously withdrew U.S. support from extremism prevention organizations, cementing its alignment with extremist ideological frameworks.

Miller-Idriss noted that undemocratic leaders employ confusion and propaganda simultaneously to undermine journalism, expertise, and shared truth, citing Hannah Arendt’s analysis of Nazi propaganda: once people stop knowing what is true and false, “it’s very easy for them to stop knowing what’s right and wrong.” The administration’s strategy combines coordinated messaging across departments with high-profile policy actions including ICE deployments, foreign intervention, and territorial threats, designed to normalize extremist rhetoric while obscuring its authoritarian implications through saturation messaging.

DHS deploys 2K federal agents to Minneapolis area to carry out ‘largest immigration operation ever’

The Trump administration has deployed approximately 2,000 federal agents to the Minneapolis area in what officials characterize as the largest immigration enforcement operation ever conducted, according to ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons. The operation, which began over the weekend, represents one of the largest single-city mobilizations of Department of Homeland Security personnel in years and has dramatically expanded the federal law enforcement footprint in Minnesota amid heightened political and community tensions.

Roughly three-quarters of the personnel come from ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations, which executes immigration arrests and deportations, while agents from Homeland Security Investigations conduct door-to-door investigations into allegations of fraud, human smuggling, and unlawful employment practices. Specialized tactical units are also involved, with HSI agents focusing on identifying suspected fraud while deportation officers arrest immigrants accused of violating immigration law. The operation includes personnel from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, including Commander Gregory Bovino, whose involvement in previous federal operations has drawn scrutiny from local officials and civil rights advocates.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accompanied ICE officers during arrests in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, appearing in tactical gear in a video where she told a handcuffed arrestee from Ecuador, “You will be held accountable for your crimes.” The Department of Homeland Security reported the arrested man faced charges in Ecuador and Connecticut including murder and sexual assault. When asked for deployment figures, DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin declined to specify numbers, citing officer safety, but stated the operation has already resulted in more than 1,000 arrests of individuals described as killers, rapists, child sexual offenders, and gang members.

Federal authorities have been increasing immigration arrests in the Minneapolis area since late last year, with Noem and FBI Director Kash Patel announcing last week that federal agencies would intensify operations in Minnesota with emphasis on fraud investigations. President Donald Trump has repeatedly connected the administration’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota to fraud cases involving federal nutrition and pandemic aid programs, many linked to defendants with Somali backgrounds. A source familiar with the operation cautioned that its scope and duration could shift as it develops.

Trump Suggests Tim Walz Ordered Death of MN Legislator

President Donald Trump amplified a conspiracy theory on social media suggesting that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz ordered the assassination of State Representative Melissa Hortman, who was murdered in summer 2024. Trump “re-Truthed” a post from @LightOnLiberty that falsely connected Hortman’s death to alleged money laundering fraud involving Somali immigrants, despite law enforcement’s clear findings regarding the actual perpetrator.

Hortman and her husband Mark were shot and killed at their home by Vance Boelter, 57, a man posing as a police officer who was indicted on six federal charges of stalking and murder. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the District of Minnesota, Boelter “embarked on a murderous rampage targeting Minnesota’s elected officials and their families” after extensive research and planning. Trump displayed indifference to the murder while blaming the “radical left” for inciting violence, deflecting responsibility for the actual crime.

Democratic State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette were also targeted in their home by the same suspect and survived after lengthy recoveries. The Department of Justice has never indicated charging anyone other than Boelter for the shootings, yet Trump’s amplification of the baseless conspiracy persists without factual foundation.

Trump’s promotion of this theory fits his pattern of attacking Walz over Somali immigration and alleged fraud. In November, Trump falsely claimed “hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over” Minnesota and alleged Somali gangs “roving the streets” looking for prey, while the FBI has investigated such reports for years without substantiating Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric.

On Air Force One in November, Trump defended calling Walz “retarded,” claiming “there’s something wrong with him” for allowing Somali immigrants into Minnesota and stating the U.S. funds Somalia despite his assertion it “doesn’t function like a country.” This pattern demonstrates how Trump leverages baseless conspiracy theories and racist narratives to weaponize tragedy for political gain.

‘They Stole $18 BILLION Dollars!’ Trump Fetes NYE Bash With Rant About Fraud

During a New Year’s Eve gathering at Mar-a-Lago on December 31, 2025, President Donald Trump delivered an unsubstantiated rant alleging $18 billion in fraud across Democratic-led states, claiming the funds were “stolen” and vowing his administration would “get that money back.” Trump made sweeping accusations against Minnesota, California, Illinois, and New York without presenting evidence, describing the alleged misconduct as “a giant scam” and framing recovery of purported stolen funds as grounds for optimism entering the new year.

Trump’s remarks followed the Department of Health and Human Services’ announcement that it would freeze federal child care funding nationwide pending state verification of legitimate spending, with Minnesota facing a complete halt to child care payments. The administration’s scrutiny of Minnesota was directly prompted by influencer Nick Shirley, whose viral video accused the state of operating empty day-care centers funded by taxpayer dollars, with claims of $110 million in fraudulent expenditures under Governor Tim Walz’s administration.

Deputy HHS Secretary Jim O’Neill explicitly cited Shirley’s video investigation in announcing the funding freeze, stating he had “identified the individuals” referenced in the material and demanding a comprehensive audit from Governor Walz. Shirley’s video, which documented visits to child-care facilities on weekdays where he alleged they were nonoperational, received endorsements from Vice President JD Vance and Elon Musk, amplifying its influence on the administration’s policy response.

Governor Walz responded by accusing Trump of weaponizing the fraud investigation for political purposes, characterizing the freeze as part of a deliberate strategy to defund programs benefiting Minnesota residents. Walz stated his administration had already spent years investigating fraudsters and that Trump was “politicizing the issue” to advance an agenda against Democratic-led states, despite acknowledging that fraud in child-care systems is a legitimate concern.

Trump’s unsubstantiated $18 billion fraud claim and the resulting federal funding freeze demonstrate the administration’s pattern of using executive power to target Democratic states based on viral social media content rather than verified evidence, while simultaneously Trump himself has pardoned individuals convicted of fraud when they maintained access to his circle.

America Now Involved In Slave Trade with Trump Sending Deportees To Forced Labor in Palau

The Trump administration and Palau signed a migrant agreement on Wednesday, with the Pacific island nation accepting up to 75 “third-country nationals” in exchange for $7.5 million in U.S. foreign aid. According to statements from Palauan President Surangel Whipps Jr. and the U.S. Embassy in Koror, the migrants would be individuals never charged with a crime who would “live and work in Palau” to address local labor shortages. Palau’s national working group would screen each arrival on a case-by-case basis before approval.

U.S. Ambassador Joel Ehrendreich and Palau’s Minister of State Gustav Aitaro signed the accord at a ceremony, cementing the Trump administration’s framing of the deal as enforcement of U.S. immigration law. The U.S. Embassy statement described Palau’s participation as cooperation on immigration priorities, while the financial package extends beyond the initial $7.5 million to include increased funding for health, disaster preparedness, financial stability, and law enforcement.

Palau, home to fewer than 18,000 people, maintains a Compact of Free Association with the United States established after its 1994 independence, under which the U.S. provides defense and substantial financial support in exchange for strategic military access to Palauan territory and waters. The agreement effectively uses development aid as leverage to export the administration’s migration policies to a dependent sovereign nation with minimal capacity to refuse.

Trump Admin Threatens 12 Companies Over Chest Binders

The Trump administration’s Food and Drug Administration issued warning letters on December 16 to ten chest binder manufacturers—FLAVNT, The Fluxion, For Them, gc2b, GenderBender, ShapeShifter Apparel, TomboyX, TOMSCOUT, TransGuy Supply, and UNTAG—and two online retailers, Early to Bed and Passional Boutique, alleging violations of federal medical device registration requirements. The letters threatened seizure and injunction if manufacturers did not address alleged violations of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act’s recordkeeping requirements.

FDA Commissioner Marty Makary falsely claimed during a December 18 Department of Health and Human Services press conference that the brands were engaged in “illegal marketing of breast binders for children, for the purposes of treating gender dysphoria,” stating that “pushing transgender ideology in children is predatory.” However, Them found no marketing copy on the brands’ websites targeting children, contradicting Makary’s assertion.

The action coincided with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s announcement of proposed rules to block healthcare providers from offering gender-affirming medical care, including measures to deny Medicaid and Medicare certification to hospitals providing such care and remove gender dysphoria from federal disability nondiscrimination protections. During the same press conference, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz falsely claimed that trans youth regularly receive vaginoplasties and phalloplasties costing up to $150,000, when in fact the vast majority of gender-affirming surgeries performed on minors are breast reduction procedures for cisgender boys.

The FDA warning letters represent an escalation of the Trump administration’s campaign against gender-affirming care that began in January with executive orders defining “biological sex” as binary and broadly targeting what Republicans label “gender ideology.” American Academy of Pediatrics President Susan Kressly condemned the administration’s actions as “baseless intrusion into the patient-physician relationship” that makes medical decision-making “harder, if not impossible, for families of gender-diverse and transgender youth.”

Republican-controlled states have pursued parallel restrictions; Florida has moved to block medical organizations from providing gender-affirming care to trans youth, while Kentucky has limited adults’ access as well. The coordinated federal and state actions violate medical consensus and prioritize political ideology over established standards of care.

Trump administration urges White men to file discrimination claims

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, chaired by Andrea Lucas, publicly solicited discrimination claims from White men this week, stating the agency is “committed to identifying, attacking, and eliminating ALL race and sex discrimination – including against white male employees.” This call aligns with the Trump administration’s characterization of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs as “unlawful” and “woke” discrimination against White workers.

Vice President JD Vance described DEI as a “deliberate program of discrimination primarily against White men” and promoted an essay claiming DEI policies harmed White male millennials’ careers. Lucas responded by tweeting the essay contained “unlawful discrimination,” framing the EEOC’s new direction as enforcement against bias rather than investigation of structural inequities. The agency now operates under Lucas’s pledge to enforce civil rights laws without regard to what she termed the notion that only certain “charging parties” merit access.

White workers comprise approximately two-thirds of the U.S. workforce but file only about 10% of race-based discrimination claims with the EEOC, according to 2023 data. However, “reverse discrimination” lawsuits have increased, including a recent case by a money manager at Carl Icahn’s firm alleging denial of a board seat because of his race. Conservative commentators, including Christopher Rufo of the Manhattan Institute, framed the EEOC’s explicit recruitment of White claimants as federal recognition of “anti-White racism.”

DEI advocates, including David Glasgow of NYU’s Meltzer Center, stated that diversity programs aim to remove bias and create equal opportunity, not to disadvantage any group. Glasgow noted that White households possess 9-10 times the wealth of Black households, White men comprise 74% of Fortune 50 CEOs, and Black Americans remain outnumbered 12 to 1 by White people in executive roles. Corporate rollbacks of DEI initiatives following Trump’s campaign promises already impacted Black Americans’ career advancement across major companies.

Trump campaigned against DEI for fostering “anti-White feeling” and on his first day in office moved to eliminate such programs from the federal government and military while threatening to strip billions in federal funding and grants from universities and contractors. Companies across corporate America accelerated efforts to dismantle or scale back DEI initiatives to avoid losing federal contracts, directly eroding representation gains achieved by women and people of color in executive positions.
