President Putin continues Russia's illegal war on Ukraine — despite devastating economic consequences for his own people. The solution is simple: Russia started this war, and Russia can end it.

I still do not understand, even after many explanations, why @MmusiMaimane, @SongezoZibi, and some in the @MYANC did not support the proposed amendment to the fiscal framework by the @EFFSouthAfrica to allocate an additional R4 billion to SARS for the 2026/2027 financial year in @ParliamentofRSA. We could have disagreed on many things, but this should have been well within Parliament’s powers to process with ease. @Action4SA, I can somewhat appreciate their challenges in navigating the debate, but the rest? Perhaps the responsible committees together with Parliamentary Budget Office and @Fiscal_Comm_RSA must start now to prepare adjustment allocation in Oct/Nov 2026 Medium Term Budget Polivy Statement. We know it will not come from the @Treasury_RSA.

The launch was supported through #SADC Secretariat–German cooperation under the Strengthening National–Regional Linkages in SADC (SNRL) programme, funded by the German Government and implemented by GIZ. This partnership aims to boost the capacity and effectiveness of national coordination structures to advance regional integration across Southern Africa. South Africa joined SADC in August 1994, and is currently the Chair of the Regional Community. #SASCOM #SADCSouthAfrica #SADCtowardsacommonfuture #SADCRegionalintegration #GIZ #DevelopmentPartnerships #PublicSectorCoordination

South Africa now has a power surplus, says Eskom chief ft.trib.al/c4pFmvW

🇺🇦🇷🇺 This Ukrainian drone was about to take out a Russian soldier, but he'd already beaten them to it

FRESH LEADS: The raid is believed to have taken place at about 4 am. According to sources, Adams wasn't found. The MP now wants to open a case against Lieutenant-General Dumisani Khumalo. @eNCA @Abramjee

They will not turn rural areas into urban centers for equality- they will ruralise the urban. Just make ZIMSEC attractive and nobody will write Cambridge exams.

South Africa is confusing beyond description. We hate our largest trading partner, the USA, where we get most of our foreign currency from and love China who we only import from and sell nearly nothing to. So basically we make forex from trade with USA and spend it in China. Dumb

I'm not interested in South Africa just because it's heartbreaking to watch a nation with so much raw potential get hollowed out, though it is. I'm interested in South Africa because it's a warning of what happens when you replace merit with race, when grievance becomes policy, when forgiveness is skipped and revenge is dressed up as justice, and when you stop seeing individuals and start seeing groups. That's not a South African problem. That's a human one. And the West is not as far from it as it thinks.

I’m old enough to remember being told that Iran would make a fortune from the Strait of Hormuz by charging US$2 million per ship for “safe passage.” Some even reached for Clausewitz to dress this up as strategic genius. Now we read that Iran may itself be losing hundreds of millions of dollars a day, while the rial has fallen to record lows and inflationary pressure has worsened. How come Russia has been in war for more than four years and still manages to keep its inflation relatively down? What did Iran miss in their strategy?


Unpopular opinions: Multiculturalism is a farce. Pan Africanism is a scam. Ubuntu is utopian nonsense. There is no such thing as a Black “community”. Black people have killed more Black people than any other race killing black people. Add some more below in comments.

If I had it my way, I would make him the next President of Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe deserves someone who has lived abroad, particularly further away from Africa. Lack of exposure is problematic in Zimbabwe. But then, one can qualify that with Chakwera in Malawi.

Can someone please explain.... 🤔

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Morning in Dnipro, Ukraine's fourth largest city, after a MASSIVE overnight attack by Russia. How many more innocent people's lives have to be destroyed before this war ends?

William Ruto mocks the way Nigerians speak English. "Our education’s good. Our English’s good… If you listen to a Nigerian speaking, you don't know what they are saying. You need a translator even when they are speaking English”. Ruto is an Uncle Tom

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Dutch intelligence estimates over 1.2 million Russian troops have been killed in the Ukraine war. Kyiv is estimated to have lost over 500,000. Too many young men have died already; this war needs to stop.

Millions of Iranians live in extreme poverty in villages far away from Tehran’s glamorous districts — the ones displayed by the regime and Western liberal propagandists to prove that Iran is an anti-American paradise.
