Well, @ParliamentofRSA has once again called for public inputs on possible constitutional amendments. For those who may not know, the Constitution itself allows for amendments through Section 74. In other words, the Constitution was designed to be amended where Parliament and the people believe change is necessary. Parliament is currently receiving legal opinions on submissions made during the previous Constitutional Review process, including SACR's submission. We therefore hope Parliament will also provide South Africans with feedback on the outcome of that process and explain how those submissions were considered. As we did before, we the people of South Africa will once again make our voices heard by participating in this process. I will share the submission link and further details soon. Public participation should not end when submissions are sent. Citizens deserve to know what happens next. #Constitution #AccountabilityMatters #parliament

On 2 June 2021, authorities intercepted 805kg of pure cocaine worth an estimated R400 million hidden inside the hull of a ski boat being towed on the N1 near Pretoria. The drugs were found in the boat’s hull and were being transported on a trailer pulled by a Ford Ranger. Arrests were made at the time, yet the matter was removed from the court roll. Serious questions remain: What happened to the case? Who were the syndicates behind the shipment? Were there failures in the investigation or prosecution process? @SAPoliceService and the @NPA_Prosecutes need to revisit this matter. South Africa cannot allow major organised crime cases involving hundreds of millions of rands worth of cocaine to simply disappear without accountability. @pule_jones

No one expected a zebra to save a rhinoceros’s life 💖✨ But in 2021, two orphaned babies were brought to a sanctuary in South Africa just days apart—both completely alone. Daisy, the baby rhino, had lost her mother to poachers. Modjadji, the zebra, had nearly died in a storm. The two orphaned animals were taken into the rescue center at the same time. They quickly became inseparable best friends. This interspecies friendship helped both of them overcome grief, loneliness, and emotional trauma. Because of each other, Daisy and Modjadji grew up healthy, happy, and stronger.

To this day, after all that money spent Raymond Mnyamezeli Mlungisi "Ray" Zondo produced zero arrests! Nothing at all!

When you're a civil servant and you pay into a public pension scheme, I would imagine that you don't expect the @GovernmentZA to go and gamble with that money. Yet, that is exactly what it seems the government has done – and they lost R4.45 billion of those people's money. What I want to know is, who are these businesses and by what criteria were they funded? By now, I have made peace with the idea that, as a white South African, this government doesn't invest in me whatsoever. Does this mean that these businesses were ALL black owned? If you are a teacher, a police officer, a nurse, or someone working within any other government institution, I would suggest you think twice about how you invest for your retirement. Clearly, the government is NOT. Click here for the story: newsday.co.za/business/18585…

The DA told farmers it was their party. Then this happened. 🧵 1/ SA's worst FMD outbreak. All 9 provinces. A national crisis. A KZN farmer emails the minister — thanking him for vaccines, offering to help coordinate the rollout. John Steenhuisen's chief of staff Jana le Roux forwards it to the DG and DDG with one line: "for some amusement." 2/ She has no agriculture background. She's a corporate lawyer who followed Steenhuisen from Cape Town city hall into the GNU. Steenhuisen's response when it went viral? "I requested the person to apologise." She kept her job. 3/ This is the same ministry that removed veteran FMD expert Dr Danie Odendaal for publicly questioning the vaccine strategy. Mock the farmers trying to help. Fire the experts trying to fix it. Then ask for an apology and move on. This is the DA's "agriculture reset." 🌾

🦅 Heart of a warrior. Soul of a gentle giant. This is a Martial Eagle (Polemaetus bellicosus) — Africa’s largest and most powerful 🦅eagle. One of the continent’s ultimate apex predators, with a wingspan stretching up to 2.6 metres and weighing up to 6+ kg, nuzzling in close, blinking those intense eyes, and trusting his human completely. Built like a feathered tank with crushing talons and a beak that can tear through bone… 🍖 These magnificent raptors rule the savannas from high above, spotting prey from kilometres away before stooping like a missile. Their menu includes everything from hares and guineafowl to monkeys, monitor lizards, and even young antelope. Sadly, these icons are Endangered. Habitat loss, and shrinking prey populations are pushing them toward the brink of extinction moments like this remind us why they matter and why protecting our wild heritage is non-negotiable. Nature’s heavyweight showing his soft side. Absolute magic. ❤️

It’s tummy-o’clock and Wangalla is making her feelings known. She was rescued as a days-old newborn, so we feed her a specialist milk formula on demand. Over time, she’ll transition to hand-fed bottles of milk on a schedule – every three hours, day and night. We suspect that, then as now, she’ll chivvy the Keepers along if they’re even a minute late, and she’ll make sure to watch over and inspect the milk-making process too! You can adopt Wangalla today and help provide the milk, round-the-clock care and expert support she needs to grow strong and be ready for the wild: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/wangal…

Know your DA. Split your vote. The DA wants to destroy the West Coast to reach ridiculous EU green standards. Critical & endangered biodiversity is at stake. politicsweb.co.za/news/will-the-…

🚨 PIC Isibaya Fund Bombshell: R3.6 BILLION in Public Pension Money Wiped Out The PIC’s “developmental” Isibaya Fund - tasked with BEE and transformation deals - just wrote off investments in multiple companies delivering -100% IRR. Entire capital gone. Pensioners’ savings funding high-risk empowerment projects with massive impairments. Parliamentary red flags, governance failures, and a pattern of losses stretching back years. Question: Are BEE policies actually building sustainable black-owned businesses… or destroying value while enriching a few? South Africa can’t afford feel-good investments at the expense of workers’ retirements. Time for a hard audit and honest debate on results vs rhetoric. What do you think? 🇿🇦 #PIC #BEE #SouthAfrica #PensionScandal (Share this post if you want real economic accountability in South Africa)

When I shout from the roof top that the Democratic Alliance is as dangerous as the ANC, just in a different way, here are the receipts: "These documents reveal that the Phelan group of companies, owned and run by the Phelan family of Ireland.... plan is to build a giant chemical processing plant – the size of a small, modern oil refinery. "This plant will steadily expand production, eventually producing 140 000 tonnes a year of so-called Electro-Sustainable Aviation Fuel (eSAF)...If located in Europe it would be located at the absolute peak of the EU’s chemical safety hierarchy as a Seveso III Upper-Tier Establishment. "The ecological risk of placing such a synthetic hydrocarbon manufacturing plant on top of a sandy aquifer in a fire prone region between two Ramsar wetlands – where a single chemical discharge over the life of the refinery would destroy both – is quite simply off the charts and would likely never be permitted in Europe." But of course come to South Africa and destroy our environment, with the help of the DA and the ANC....🤬😡

The South African government is LYING about the extent of illegal immigration in the country. Those 'debunking' the info are all CAPTURED organization. Africa Check (Gates, Vanguard/Blackrock/ Soros controlled) IRR (Oppenheimer controlled ) Please try to understand what is going on. I was personally told by a source who works with this data, that 'the government doesn't want the people to know'

Humanos estúpidos… En Maasai Mara, turistas saltaron de sus vehículos de safari y se agolpó en la orilla del río para observar la migración de los ñus, bloqueando su paso tan gravemente que los animales se vieron obligados a regresar y saltar al río:

Tile Installation, Repair & Drilling Hacks 🔨✨

His little boy, Noah, was only three years old when cancer stopped the world from turning. In 2016, Michael Bublé was at the height of his career — sold-out arenas, hit records, millions of fans around the world. Then, moments before a concert in London, his phone lit up with a message from his wife, Luisana: “Something’s wrong.” Doctors first thought Noah had mumps. It wasn’t mumps. It was hepatoblastoma — a rare and aggressive liver cancer that affects only a handful of children each year. Noah was three. “My whole life ended,” Bublé later said. “My son’s cancer diagnosis rocked my world.” The tours stopped immediately. The fame stopped mattering. Michael and Luisana moved their family to Los Angeles and spent the next seven months living in hospitals, surrounded by chemotherapy, surgeries, scans, fear, and hope. Concert halls became hospital corridors. Applause became the sound of monitors beeping through the night. Michael tried to stay strong for everyone. “I much rather would have it have been me,” he admitted later. For months, they lived hour to hour. Then came the moment they had prayed for. Spring 2017. The doctors told them: “He’s okay.” Remission. After holding his family together for months, Michael finally broke down. “I fell,” he said quietly. “My wife picked me up.” The experience changed him forever. He stopped caring about charts, fame, critics, and celebrity life. “I will never be carefree again,” he said. “And that’s okay. It is a privilege for me to exist.” Later that same year, the family welcomed a daughter. They named her Vida. In Spanish, it means “life.” When Bublé returned to the stage in 2018, fans noticed something different in his voice. Not weakness. Depth. Gratitude. A man who had almost lost everything and now understood exactly what mattered. Today, Noah is healthy. He loves music. He plays piano with his father. Sometimes, Michael watches him play and quietly cries. Not because of sadness. Because his son is alive. Because they made it through. And because some people spend their whole lives chasing success, only to discover that the most beautiful sound in the world is hearing the people you love still breathing beside you.

What? Is Gates funding this?

When you've put your order in but the food isn't coming fast enough 😅 (Sound on for rhinos squeaks 🔊)

South Africa’s proposed digital ID system is being presented as voluntary and convenient. But at @LexLibertasOnX, we believe citizens should be very concerned. Even though it is called voluntary today, systems like these tend to become compulsory in practice. Once banks, employers, and government departments start requiring the digital version, your physical ID card becomes second-class. What starts as optional can quickly become mandatory. This system also creates a central record of where you go and what you access — powerful surveillance infrastructure in the hands of a government that has repeatedly shown admiration for highly centralised authoritarian models. That’s why Lex Libertas has made an official submission to the Department of Home Affairs. We need to show, however, that our concern is not a lone voice. If you are concerned about government overreach and the steady erosion of freedom and privacy, we need you to act with us. Register your support, and add your voice to this campaign.
