๐National Treasury has frozen July grant payments to 3 municipalities in the WC:
Theewaterskloof

For those who think coalition govts in the WC are the best option, none of these municipalities were governed by a DA majority at the time of the decline
BREAKING: Iran announces the Islamabad Agreement and MOU is now officially "dead," following Trump's earlier declaration ending the MOU, per Tasnim.
Iran says it now has "a clearer mandate to confront the Americans, the Israelis, and their proxies in the region and the world."
The US is attacking Iran during the funeral processions of those murdered by the US - because of course.
Itโs almost as if they wanted to give Khamenei a final farewell gift of reminding Iranians that he was right to say: never, ever trust the United States of America.
BREAKING: A source close to Iran's top negotiator suggests the MOU is effectively dead after the U.S. revoked the sanctions waiver โ with Iran set to tighten its grip on the Strait of Hormuz and put Bab el-Mandeb "on the table", according to some Iranian outlets.
The source said the revocation marks a "fundamental breach," leaving Tehran with no reason to limit its military posture. Iran's patience with U.S. escorts was already running thin โ now with the economic incentive removed, the threshold for escalation has been significantly lowered.
"The MOU just ended here," the source said. "If Washington wants to push, Tehran will respond by widening the front โ closing Bab el-Mandeb is also on the table."
BREAKING: The US strikes on Iran are "four or five times bigger in scope and power" than the previous strikes 10 days ago and are "the most intense US attacks on Iran since the April ceasefire," per US officials.
The strikes are expected to continue "for some time tonight, perhaps hours."
Most gay people were born to heterosexual parents in heterosexual relationships. We live in
heteronormative societies surrounded, dominated by heterosexuality.
If sexual orientation can be influenced by mere contact or proximity, why y'all straight people raising all these gays?
BREAKING: There are now multiple reports from a variety of sources on the right and the left, claiming that Mitch McConnell has been unconscious for weeks and is likely braindead..
The fact that family members and Republican insiders are not pushing back on these reports tell you everything you need to know.
Time for a Special Election Kentucky.
This Mitch McConnell situation is CRAZY.
I've been waiting for confirmation on the situation but his camp is keeping details locked down. So here's what we know:
1. He's been hospitalized for some time.
2. His highly connected Chinese wife left the country for high level meetings with the CCP after his medical emergency happened.
3. No one knows if he's conscious, with some rumors beginning to circulate that he's brain dead and on life support.
4. There's already an election to replace him happening this Fall, but Kentucky law calls for a special election for senators unable to complete their terms vs. a governor appointee. So if he is incapacitated, someone else likely would be elected to finish out his term through January. Speculators are suggesting the party doesn't want to deal with that process and is thus keeping his condition quiet.
This is just the latest in a string of incidents where congressional leaders have disappeared and it's inexcusable. We need age limits immediately - having people this old and unhealthy in power is a national security threat.
this is something that just never leaves me they full on murdered 11 million people in west asia from 2000 and never paid a single consequence for it they spread propaganda instead. 11 million people.. canโt even comprehend that
Let me be VERY clear for those of you in the back. If bringing down the largest child sex trafficking ring in our known history will "collapse the government as we know it," then the government as we know it needs to collapse.
Adam Smith is the Israel-bought co-sponsor of Section 219 of the NDAA to merge the US military with Israel.
Kshama Sawant is seeking to unseat him in the dem primary. Letโs give her a hand.
A lot of Very Smart Democrats super confused about Dianna DeGette like she wasnโt recorded on video grabbing a constituent and yelling at her that โif the only issue you care about is Gaza, you shouldnโt vote for meโ like two months ago.
