The administration of President Donald Trump has declared South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool a persona non grata in the United States.
In a social media post on Friday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Rasool was “no longer welcome in our great country”.
“Ebrahim Rasool is a race-baiting politician who hates America and hates POTUS,” Rubio wrote, using the acronym for President of the United States.
“We have nothing to discuss with him and so he is considered PERSONA NON GRATA.”
Rubio linked his remarks to an article by the right-wing media outlet Breitbart, wherein Rasool is quoted as saying Trump mobilised a “supremacist instinct” and “white victimhood” as a “dog whistle” during the 2024 elections.
Well the young lady on the Jubilee video that Sam Seder debated was quoted saying “What’s the problem with xenophobic nationalism?” And that the Trump administration although are doing things to her liking are not extreme enough for her.
So I will be sticking with the South African Ambassador on this one.
Is Seder any good? I get recommended his videos a lot on YouTube and the titles seem a bit clickbait-y but I’ve only seen a handful of clips. I like him on Bob’s Burgers though
Yeah well worth imo, him and Emma Vigeland who co hosts with him on his daily show are i credible debaters.
He’s excellent at debating. Yea they use click bait titles like everyone else, but it’s so fucking satisfying to see him DESTROY the absolute filth that are today’s “conservatives.”
