The Trump administration has ejected South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool out of the country, declaring him persona non grata after he gave a lecture claiming that President Donald Trump is a white supremacist leader.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Rasool’s expulsion via X on Friday afternoon.
Rubio linked to a Breitbart News article that reported on a lecture Rasool had given Friday morning to a South African think tank, in which he had claimed that Trump was leading a global white supremacist movement.

Well, at least we know where he stands, and it isn't going to be the USA any longer!

Good. He should have thought before using that choice of words. Now he has to leave his cushy digs to return to a country that's in a death spiral.

I guess he figured if he could spit in the HairSniffer's face and get away with it, he could do the same to Trump.
So.... he FA'd and now he FO'd.
So long, Sucker!

It's basic psychology. People who fear white supremacy actually do feel inferior to whites so they are placing the blame on someone besides themselves. Sorry about your inferiority complex, dude. Joe Biden or Obama would have apologized and sent them another five billion dollars.

Rasool's (which in Arabic means messenger or prophet of Allah) speech is one of the best examples of projection. Accuse the other side of everything you are doing or planning to do. From 0bama, Holder to Schumer and Hakeem (which means doctor or healer in Arabic) Jeffries are perfect masters of this art. As for this 'Messenger' - throw his a** out.

Many on the right AND the left are surprised as they are discovering that Marco Rubio is the real deal, that he is firmly in the America First camp, and that just like President Trump who appointed him, he "don't stand no mess." He is an absolutely GREAT Sec State. Well done, Mr. President. Well done, Mr. Secretary.

Zimbabwe 2.0 proceeds apace. American libs have always looked the other way at the racism there because it's directed at whites.

If the United State citizens were racists they would be doing the same thing that South Africa is doing to Whites.

South Africa, sadly, has become a leftist, racist sewer. I visited there 20 years ago, met a lot of fine people, saw a good bit of a very geographically and climatologically diverse country, with a lot of natural beauty. Sadly, the vermin have taken over and are steadily driving out the productive people and destroying everything that existed before. Crime is rampant, all modernity is failing steadily and it is slipping back into the natural condition of Africa, abject poverty, because of endless corruption and laziness and almost all of them not caring about education or advancement.

Since Rasool is neither free nor brave, then clearly THIS is not his home. Don't let the doorknob hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.

At the ambassador level, diplomats would not be making such stupid, foolish missteps.
