DC getting zero Afghan refugees in first wave of resettlement, as many states get 1,000+
The Biden administration wants to resettle 95,000 Afghans in the next year
By Adam Shaw | Fox News
 

Former Bush White House Adviser Karl Rove, USA Today's Susan Page and Washington Post columnist Charles Lane discuss 9/11 and Biden's Afghanistan exit.

Some of the loudest voices calling for the resettlement of tens of thousands of Afghan refugees in the United States have come from Washington, D.C. – and yet the nation's capital won’t be receiving any of the initial wave of refugees.

State Department data shows where the initial group of 37,000 Afghans are heading after being processed into the United States.

The Afghans are coming into the U.S. in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which sparked an exodus of Afghans from Kabul as they fled the Taliban. Officials have said those coming in are made up of those who worked directly with the U.S. mission as well with thousands of others deemed "at risk."

California (5,255) and Texas (4,481) will receive the largest numbers of the first wave, while smaller populated states like Oklahoma and Missouri will receive 1,800 and 1,200 respectively. Michigan, Florida and Georgia will both receive more than 1,000 Afghans each. New York will receive 1,143 and Arizona will receive 1,610.

Democrats and rinos are imitating the Vatican plan for refugees:  Make a big stink about them but don't let them come near where you live or work.   :nono:
