South African football does not simply need a new SAFA president. It needs a man brave enough to dismantle the system that elected him, surrender some of his own power and risk losing friends to rescue the game.

SPORT | South African football governance takes centre stage at this weekend's SAFA Elective Congress, where challenger Sandile Zungu faces incumbent Dr Danny Jordaan, who is seeking a fourth consecutive term as president. Xoli Zondo has more.
13 years of Danny Jordan is long enough to judge results. Bafana, the regions, and the balance sheet all tell the same story. Tomorrow the delegates can choose competence over habit. Vote Sandile Zungu. #SZ2026
To every delegate casting a vote this is your moment to save South African football. Sandile Zungu is a top businessman who brings real sponsorship partners to the grassroots, Bafana, and Banyana. He won’t take from SAFA. He’ll give everything, even from his own pocket, to rebuild this organization. Let’s vote for someone who gives, not takes. Let’s save our football. For the generations to come 🫶🏾🙏🏾

Catherine Austin Fitts on Trump's failure in Iran, which is due in part to it "[cutting] the Starlink connections and [stopping] a lot of the invisible weaponry"🛰️⚠️
"I think they have other strategies, but they all come down to blatant genocide... but if they go full-on genocide, [the U.S. is] really going to destroy their brand"
"... [and] I think they have things much more powerful than nuclear weapons, which I would describe [as] exotic weapons... because having spent many decades looking at the black budget, I think the technology of what they have is much greater than what is commonly understood"
"I think Trump really did think that an Iran action would be short because if you look at February, they basically drove the Iranian currency down with a covert operation, and then when they went in, they drove it down even more"
"And I really think they thought a pincer movement of the economic sanctions plus the Palantir Lavender, you know, IDF kind of systems and assassinations would really work, and they completely misjudged it"
"And one of the things that's interesting is the Iranians figured out how to cut the Starlink connections and a lot of the invisible weaponry went blind and got stopped"

Iran and Yemen are now in charge of the world’s most strategic waterways!
Around 25% to 30% of the world’s oil supply is now under our control
Thank you for your attention to this matter 🤣
