🚨 Watch the DA’s Mark Burke expose Deputy President Paul Mashathile over the R49 million Tembisa hospital tender linked to his children, raising serious questions about whether BEE is empowering the many or only benefiting a connected few.  👀 Still confused, Deputy President?

DA MP @JamesRLorimer joins @ChrisHatt11 to examine the growing risk of a fuel supply crunch and what it could mean for businesses and consumers alike. Watch here: youtube.com/live/OHXD771QX…

Iran's regime, sensing its own imminent collapse, is accelerating the killings of activists and dissidents. Their actions are reminiscent of the Nazi death marches in the early 1945 when the allied forces were making advances on Europe ...

More evidence that the reason the ANC is so pro-Russian is because they are on Russia’s payroll. Also a message to anti-DA keyboard warriors - that anti-DA message you’re spreading may be a Russian op. Embarrassing much? dailymaverick.co.za/article/2026-0…

Tough on crime ✅ Reclaim hijacked buildings ✅ Stop land invasions ✅ Arrest illegal immigrants in conjunction with Home Affairs ✅ Protect whistleblowers ✅ Fire corrupt officials ✅ This is how we bring law and order back to Johannesburg 🔵🇿🇦

70% of global crude oil in South Africa is imported. What many dont know is that Nigeria is the biggest seller of oil to South Africa, makes sense if you consider the distance. After that comes Saudi Arabia. Despite a relationship with Iran, SA imports very little from them. 🛢

This fact shows you the DA difference far better than a manifesto ever could.

Yesterday I spoke at the @BizNewsCOM conference about a new infrastructure model for municipalities. Relying on municipal departments and balance sheets alone to upgrade water systems, power networks and landfills will not work. Tshwane in 2026 isn’t Cape Town in 2006. We need an infusion of capital and expertise from the private sector to make up for ground lost due to ANC government and coalition chaos.

Water crisis group hasn’t met for a month since formation? Cyril: preparatory work, about to meet. Joburg Presidential Working Group hasn’t met for a year? Cyril: it’s ready to meet. When he was at school explaining why he hadn’t done his homework it must have been spectacular.

📺 Watch as the DA’s Stephen Moore pushes Minister Majodina to act against the water crisis. We demand the ring-fencing of water funds so that money meant for water infrastructure actually goes there. South Africans deserve running water and real solutions to #FixDryTaps.

@MYANC This image (which you stole from Time magazine) is of the Makause informal settlement next to the suburb of Primrose in Germiston, Gauteng. Which you've governed since the dawn of democracy, you clowns.

@MbalulaFikile This has gone beyond reconciliation. It is now cultural triumphalism. It failed in Triomf and will fail here.

The apparent rejection of renaming of Graaff-Reinet after Professor Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe must be condemned. It is unfortunate that 32 years after our democracy built on reconciliation and tolerance of our diverse cultures we still have some groups who are opposed to nation building and cultural reconstruction. Standardization of geographical names is central to cultural diversity , spiritual healing and decolonisation of African heritage . Places which have offensive names remind those who were oppressed the brutal oppression and cultural subjugation. Those who came to settle in our land did everything in their powers to wipe out the heritage and cultures of the indigenous people. It is now time for all peace loving South African to embrace total transformation of our society and accept that some geographical place names must be standardized.

Councillor Carlos da Rocha does not back down!

💰The ANC used R22 million on statues, while the DA spent R22 million upgrading 8 roads from gravel to asphalt. The choice is yours – service delivery or statues? 🤷🏽 🗳️ Register to vote: check.da.org.za

Happy crowd!

The whole of O R Tambo airport has no water today. Incredible, in the true sense of the word.

Modern societies claim to revere science, but too often turn scientific disputes into moral battles in which heretics must be shamed or silenced. humanprogress.org/a-vindication-…
