North Dakota County May Become US's 1st to Bar New Refugees

BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA - Reuben Panchol was forced to leave war-torn Sudan decades ago as a child, embarking on an odyssey that eventually brought him to the American Midwest and left him eternally grateful to the country that took him in.

"I am an American citizen, a North Dakotan," said Panchol, a 38-year-old father of four. "And without North Dakota, I couldn't have made it."

Panchol hopes to share his story on Monday with members of a local commission who are set to vote on whether their county will stop accepting refugees. If they vote to bar refugees, as expected, Burleigh County — home to about 95,000 people and the capital city of Bismarck — could become the first local government to do so since President Donald Trump issued an executive order making it possible.

Are we getting to the point where sanctuary states are considered legal but non-sanctuary states are not.  Will the first be considered a state's right and the second not? :pondering:

Everything that grows governmental power will be legal, everything that inhibits it will not.

Just for the sake of background, when Reuben Panchol came to the US, the Arab-Muslim leaders of Sudan had been waging genocide and religiocide against black Christians and animists in what eventually became South Sudan. IOW, they really were refugees fleeing an oppressive government, unlike modern illegals coming to the US for better jobs.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Quit dawdling, Burleigh County.
Just... do it.

Where you lead... others will follow.
