Republican Mayor Celebrates African Refugees As The "New Pioneers"

Tuesday, Jul 28, 2026 - 06:00 PM

A Republican mayor in Utah is catching heat for turning the state's traditional Pioneer Day into a celebration of African refugees, dubbing them the modern-day equivalents of the Mormon settlers who founded the Beehive State.



Provo Mayor Marsha Judkins posted an Instagram message this week praising African migrants who have resettled in Utah's fourth-largest city.

Judkins said that Utahns mark Pioneer Day to "recognize those who journeyed west in search of religious freedom and the opportunity to build a better future free from persecution."
 

Today we celebrate Pioneer Day and recognize those who journeyed west in search of religious freedom and the opportunity to build a better future free from persecution. We also recognize members of our refugee community who embody that same pioneer spirit, leaving behind familiar homes to begin new lives in a place they had never seen before.

As former Governor Gary Herbert recently wrote “Pioneer Day is our opportunity to say plainly what we know to be true: the men and women rebuilding their lives in our communities are modern-day pioneers.”

Uh, the pioneers did not have a welfare state handing free stuff to them as they showed up.

She's as bad as Ohio Gov. DeWine, it appears. He's all, "Yay, Haitians! More, please!"

Its' not that they are Hatian, it's that they cut the line to enter this country, they cut the line to get welfare benefits, and their legal presence in this country was supposed to only be temporary.

If we need them as healthcare workers, have them come on work visas with a path to citizenship if they stay off public assistance.

Meanwhile, the State Department can get off its ass and work with the Organization of American States to put Haiti back together again as a stable, functioning, and hopefully prosperous nation-state.

"Republican Mayor Celebrates African Refugees As The "New Pioneers""

Geesh.
Is it any wonder why the country is heading towards either collapse or communism?
In Utah, of all places.

And once more, evidence that "the Republicans" aren't going to "save American nor save the Constitution". They're clueless and hopeless.


Meanwhile, RINO snorts:
"Meanwhile, the State Department can get off its ass and work with the Organization of American States to put Haiti back together again as a stable, functioning, and hopefully prosperous nation-state."

That cannot happen.
Now... or ever.
For obvious reasons.

Sorry if you don't care for this reply...

Every day, we see horrific videos and reports of violent crimes involving African migrants across the Western world.
