Beltrami County in Minnesota has voted to reject refugee resettlement in their community following an executive order from President Donald Trump that allows state and local governments to determine whether or not they consent to accepting them.
Minnesota’s Democrat Governor Tim Walz has already vowed to take refugees on a state level, but that will not override the county’s decision.
The 3-2 vote on Tuesday was reportedly rowdy, as most residents strongly opposed taking refugees. The Star Tribune reports that the meeting was “filled with jeers, shouts and accusations among the more than 150 people.”
Baltrami County is now one of few counties nationwide to formally reject refugee resettlement.

Damn good start!
Democrats did they reject it because Trump made it an executive order or they really dont want the refugees
Send them to Clinton and Warrens hometowns!
Reverse psychology
Northwest Woodsman: It is a good sign when people start standing up for themselves and their communities. Virginia and now Minnesota May be the start of a backlash that won’t be pretty for the PedoMarxist Democrats. First signs of hope in a long while. By the way, just saw a shocking video related to the Clintons and Mena airport drug running activities. It is on YouTube and worth watching.
