@charmainesposts: Yesterday the 2nd Dec 2025 Trump called Somali immigrants “garbage” and even singled out Ilhan Omar as part of the problem. What gets lost is the history. In the early 2000s almost half of low income UK households had no internet at home and more than 40 percent of low income US families were offline. Somali entrepreneurs stepped into that gap long before any government plan offering the first digital access points in neighbourhoods telecoms ignored. The same online world Trump uses to reach millions today was built on the backs of communities he now insults. Sources ONS Ofcom Pew Research BBC.

Thank you for sharing this. My mum used to run a small coffee shop inside my uncle’s internet café, and I worked there growing up. I witnessed first-hand how internet cafés, especially those run by Somalis, created a lifeline for our community. People came in to connect with family abroad, send money home, and support relatives outside the UK. It was a place of connection, responsibility, and community.

Trump is doing this because there has been oil discovered in Somalia and the Somali government don’t want to work with America or Saudi . Always follow the money..
