flag Trump sets 2026 refugee cap at 7,500, lowest ever, prioritizing white South Africans amid backlash.

flag The Trump administration has set the 2026 U.S. refugee cap at 7,500, the lowest in history, prioritizing white Afrikaners from South Africa amid claims of persecution—claims rejected by South Africa and experts. flag The move, implemented without a public rationale, shifts oversight from the State Department to Health and Human Services and has drawn criticism from humanitarian groups who say it undermines the program’s humanitarian mission. flag Meanwhile, the U.S. and China agreed to reduce tariffs, pause port fees, and extend cooperation on fentanyl control, while China suspended rare earth export restrictions. flag The administration also paused SNAP benefit cuts during a government shutdown, though legal challenges continue.
