Dear @Julius_S_Malema this is in response to the video the EFF uploaded about #Mugabe.

I agree with Yengeni.
We don't need "rightwing reactionaries" pronouncing that Busisiwe Mkhwebane is incompetent, lied under oath, and acted in bad faith.
Because it's already been pronounced by the Constitutional Court.

You, my dear Carl, have ZERO moral highground to occupy! 🙄 We haven’t forgotten that you “killed” off both your parents (on different occasions) for financial gain; forged signatures, lied about being raped in prison and pretended to have leukemia!

[Ranjeni Munusamy @RanjeniM]

Such as? Who did I say you slept with? I’m sorry I can’t “relax” when you demean me.

"Tarnishing the image" of someone the highest court in the land calls a liar, a cheat and an incompetent?

No I interviewed him for @SundayTimesZA when he was tourism minister. Here is link to the story with another picture. Taking a picture standing next to someone is not a sexual act - even though the misogynists and sexists insist that it is.

That’s because the “old South Africa” didn’t count the amount of blacks murdered each year - especially those offed by the racist & fascist white regime who brought us #Apartheid

Ben is right. Palestinians deserve self-determination and statehood just like their neighbors, not destruction of their property and indefinite military occupation of their land. This has to stop!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The GOP wants to send us back:

Back towards injustice,
Back to the denial of science,
Back to the times when women needed permission slips from men,
Back to racism -

But we won’t go back.
We will move forward.

Forward to the dignity of all people & protection of our planet.

How did @SizweMpofuWalsh go from making rap songs criticising Zuma (now taken off youtube) to fawning interviews in which he allows Zuma to repeat wild dangerous and unfounded accusations? Opportunism or is he just starstruck?

I asked Trump if he would be okay with someone telling the First Lady to go back to her country. He did not answer.

@pietrampedi @Julius_S_Malema @mthombothi @FinancialMailSA @Bruceps @MaxduPreez @AntonHarber It would be a lot simpler if you could name the one person who is not part of a “cabal”. We can then demonise the entire journalistic profession in SA, yourself excepted of course.

I am not interested in a photo op at an Amazon warehouse. I am calling for Labor Department inspectors to come in, unannounced, and do thorough investigations of the facilities where hundreds of workers have told me about horrendous conditions and abuse.

And so the heart breaks. Rest In Peace, singer who was a chronicler of the story of diversity, a soother, a charmer, a scatterling of the world, really, always moving with that BIG smile plastered on your face. We are richer for your gift of music. Go gently
