This is obviously thinly-veiled racism. But it’s also a bullshit premise. Haitian refugees were thriving in Springfield. Bhutanese, Congolese, other refugees from Africa & Asia have reinvigorated Rust Belt towns and cities. Trump wants to send them all back.
Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners?

TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

genuinely astonishing how many people have fallen for the Bhutanese 'happiness index' over the years. Yes, this isolated absolute monarchy that doesn't allow visitors unless strictly controlled and carried out an ethnic cleansing campaign is definitely somewhere that sincerely values happiness!
Tbh “gdp is a flawed figure” is true but is itself very often a motte to the bailey of “a much better method of estimating wealth is the number of skyscrapers with LEDs you have” or a similarly vibes based analysis

Awful. UTEP is a great little school with a very cool Bhutanese-architecture campus.
Eleven foreign students at the University of Texas, El Paso have had their visas cancelled by the Department of Homeland Security. These cancellations are part of the nationwide attack on campus activism and international students studying in the. U.S.

My story for the El Paso Times.

A quiet day in my studio with few visitors. That leaves plenty of time to create.

Monk visited.

This is on handmade paper from Bhutan, coated in yellow ochre (a traditional Bhutanese colour).

It’s ink. Roughly 45cm x 33cm

For many Bhutanese, reminders of their imminent demise are woven into the weft of daily life. Bhutanese folklore maintains that in order to be happy, one must contemplate death five times a day. www.ft.com/content/cf5d...

People freaking out: Why are Afrikaners getting expedited asylum while Afghan, Congolese, Bhutanese, Venezuelan, and Haitian refugees already here for years have been ordered to leave?

Mollie: Afrikaners are “actual people”
Fox blasts the liberal "hypocrisy" over the white Afrikaner "refugees" brought in by Trump.

Kevin O'Leary: "I don’t know why this particular group gets this focus. It has nothing to do with race or religion."

Mollie Hemingway: "You have actual people needing asylum and the left is freaking out."

Once deported to Bhutan, some Nepali-speaking Bhutanese refugees say they are told to leave. Many have since disappeared, while others are homeless and stateless, according to immigration advocates.

Tonight's dinner 🍜🍽️: Kewa Datshi, a Bhutanese stew of potatoes, chilli and cheese. This is a simple, one pot meal and it's absolutely delicious. Cheesy, filling and spicy. Since Bhutanese cheese isn't easily found, I used feta. Recipe from: backpackandwhisk.wordpress.com/2017/04/02/k...

I suspect the vice president had a role in his. Many of the Bhutanese refugees taken in during the George W. Bush administration settled in Ohio (where they're thriving).

And we know how JD feels about refugees in his home state.

Why would Trump want to ban Bhutanese people?
The proposed list of countries for the ‘Muslim ban’ reboot has been leaked. It includes a small Buddhist kingdom in the Himalayas.
