@mailandguardian Why does the SIU and law enforcement need the Presidents approval to charge and arrest this criminal? The law is supposed to apply equally to all and her proximity to our President should have no bearing on her culpability!!! 🇿🇦

SIU alerts presidency to Khusela Diko’s R1-million Digital Vibes payout - The SIU has sent a letter to President Cyril Ramaphosa’s office informing it of alleged corruption by his former spokesperson https://t.co/eKxCVaWD1Y

[Christopher Pappas @MayorPappas]

Despite the crooks best efforts the DA councillors in uMngeni have been sworn in. Those that defend corruption must beware. Your names are in the SIU and auditor generals reports and we will have no trouble in finding a place for you in prison. #WeWorkForYou

BREAKING — Speaker Pelosi DEMANDS that Kevin McCarthy joins her in calling for the Ethics Committee and law enforcement to investigate Paul Gosar’s threats of violence.

Retweet if you are with @SpeakerPelosi!

Comment: Isn’t it time for a ring-fenced declaration of national disaster on Eskom? It feels like the grid could fail and plunge us into a national breakdown. It needs to be treated like Covid emergency - an issue of national security with daily briefings to the nation.

@mailandguardian I’d love to know how much the Gupta’s and their lackey Ace paid his ex PA to move to the US and then try and deny he did anything criminal???? 🇿🇦

[Mail & Guardian @mailandguardian]

In a statement dated 6 November, Moroadi Cholota, the woman at the heart of the state's case against Ace Magashule, claims that the Hawks with the assistance of the FBI attempted to coerce and coach a statement out of her. https://t.co/8L3p6ZLkt9

@judith_february What a disgraceful conman!!!

What a disgraceful tweet.

Hillary Clinton: “Marjorie Taylor Greene “should be on a watch list. Not in Congress.”

Retweet if you agree with @HillaryClinton! ✋

@errolbsk I agree Errol and yet millions of unemployed, disheartened voters still vote for them under the false threat that they will lose their social grants if they don’t??? 🇿🇦

[ERROL💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 @errolbsk]

Anc leaders, across the board, have become too complacent. They only work near elections, they expect the vote without working for it, they are more concerned about who gets tenders than service delivery, they have grown distant from the people.

Discovery’s data shows:

Unvaccinated clients have a five times higher risk of COVID-19 infection; and 20 times the risk of dying from Covid complications.

There have been zero vaccine-related deaths recorded amongst Discovery’s 1.2 million vaccinated members.

Vaccines work.

Whatever happens, remember #anyonebutANC. Make it trend.

@RediTlhabi Our President who I genuinely think is a good and well intended man, who offered such promise of a new dawn for all South Africans, has sadly become a lame duck and weak leader under the control of the ANC criminals he committed to oust and target 🇿🇦

WHEN is the time?

@dunkhippo33 So true Elizabeth, as a young startup which is suddenly experiencing exponential growth, we are treading the fine line between introducing more discipline into our decision making and operational processes, while keeping the founders creativity thriving #envel

[Elizabeth Yin 💛 @dunkhippo33]

Startups are chaotic. But, the goal is to take that chaos and turn them into repeatable processes.

One of the biggest stumbling blocks I see founders do is they do too much "random sh*t" for too long instead of turning them into processes.

@News24 How does the IEC allow the buying of votes like this ( aka election rigging) and how does the EFF afford this kind of bribe, based on it’s publicly disclosed fund raising ??? 🇿🇦

@DStv After an hour on your internet portal, half an hour on your whatsapp line and multiple attempts with your call centre, I have failed to be able to cancel my multiple Dstv contracts and so as a last resort will close my bank account tomorrow to ensure the debits bounce

[Craig Bond @Africanoptimism]

@QaanitahHunter Our voters will yet again vote for the inherently corrupt, promise laden leaders of the ANC and EFF and continue to wonder why service delivery and their lives get worse and worse. Voting for the ANC and EFF is like Turkeys voting for Christmas #BananaRepublic 🇿🇦

[Qaanitah Hunter @QaanitahHunter]

The Media24 commissioned poll is very interesting. Steenhuisen is simply not landing with voters.

[Craig Bond @Africanoptimism]

@KhulaniQoma Given the political party choices we have in SA, with both the ANC and EFF motivated by institutionalised corruption and patronage, an imperfect DA remains the only logical choice for all South Africans wanting basic service delivery and an end to corruption 🇿🇦

[Khulani Qoma @KhulaniQoma]

Typical response from DA supporters.
