@ferialhaffajee @helenzille Cynical, self-serving political stupidity. Definitely qualifies for the 2020 Darwin awards.

Comment: Wow! DA’s FF-Lite strategy fails miserably in Potch - a bellwether spot to gauge strategy. The thing I’ve learnt in covering @helenzille for years is that she is very smart but completely lacks the political art and smart of self-reflection.

Wow, I am reliably informed of another important result. JB Marks (Potchefstroom) Ward 5: 2020 FF+ 59% (+24 AND GAIN FROM DA) DA 38% (-18) 2019 DA 56% FF+ 35% 2016 DA 78% FF+ 8% Incoming hypothesis was that the DA would claw back some Afrikaans vote. Doesn't look like it.

Interesting read by Dr. Paul Alexander, a colleague working in infectious disease at McMaster University. I know Paul for over 20 years. He is both smart and fearless. unmaskdata.com/2020/10/28/exc…

@jean_leroux @justicemalala Even when polite, racism, bigotry and prejudice remains just that. Politeness just cloaks it with evil.

This is the vile legacy of the uLerato Pillay account, a disgraced former SANDF member by the name of Sfiso Gwala:
Discrimination based on nothing more than a name.

@RealKiefer - Mr Sutherland. You don’t know me from Adam. Pretoria, South Africa. Following your series “Designated Survivor.” Your work here is a absolute “Tour de Force.” I am in awe.

@TheMallOfAfrica - Good morning. Do you have wheelchairs available for seniors with mobility difficulties?

@piersmorgan @ZaraRahim Morbidly stupid. Shooting yourself in the foot with a howitzer. The US is in dire straits with this quality of leadership, even just human!

Shocking & shameful.
This now deleted tweet was the reaction to President Trump testing positive for Covid-19 from @ZaraRahim - former Obama White House staffer and Hillary Clinton’s former 2016 National Spokeswoman.
English
I will just say this...
The timing of Trump's positive test is very interesting and solves a number of immediate problems for him.

Or, clergy, ask yourselves this:
What other professions are all over social media telling everyone how hard and unappreciated our jobs are?
Cops and military men.
Is that the company you want to be in?

@PublicProtector 🤦🏽 - When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

GEMS succeeded on appeal at the SCA after the High Court ruled in the PP’s favour. Following your logic, is the High Court also incompetent? Asking for a friend! 🤔

More evidence to show that @PublicProtector @AdvBMkhwebane is incompetent.

@LesDaChef Thank you Lesego. Invaluable advice even I can inderstand!

Knives. A thread. This is from my own personal experience over the years as a chef. Just like driving cars, every one will be different to each person but there is a general agreement as to which are the best and which are in the bottom. #LesFoodFacts

Dear Americans, do you realize what your great country now looks like abroad? The lights went out on that city upon a hill

My younger brother fought #COVID19 for 45 days. It was during level 5. We didn't know what to do. He survived. That alone forces me to be so grateful for so much, despite the many challenges one might be facing.

@snymansd Geluk Prof. Ek sien uit daarna om dit ter hand te neem. My mede-liefde vir die Ou Testament is deur jou geplant.

Today I received the first copies of my latest book - a commentary on the books of Nahum, Habakkuk and Zephaniah in the TOTC-series published by Inter-Varsity Press, England. Oh, the thrill of holding a book you wrote in your hands! Priceless!
