WANTED SUSPECT LINKED TO MURDER AND BUSINESS ROBBERY: Do Not Approach

Authorities are appealing to the public for assistance in identifying and locating a suspect wanted in connection with serious crimes including murder, business robbery, and attempted murder.

[Vehicle Trackers @VehicleTracker8]

Good evening please help us get these useless excuses for men.

They robbed a lady last night Nellmephius, Pretoria.

Please share dashcam footage 👏🏾

@ZamakonkeK @Oscarkhomotsoh Where do you work? Asking for a friend who goes an extra, he is currently at home.

The self-described provincial spokesperson of Lekompo musicians gave a Polokwane magistrate an ultimatum: “Give Shebe Maburna a free bail or else we’ll boycott the magistrate court.” The magistrate refused to grant Shebe bail, free or otherwise, and sent him back to jail. Now we’ll see how the musicians will boycott the magistrate court. I’m curious to see what the boycott of a court entails.

Name calling from a draft dodger doesn't bother me. What bothers me is a clueless commander in chief who took our country to war without a strategy because no one around him has the guts to tell him when he's wrong.

We must make it clear to all whom we welcome in our beautiful country including the new US ambassador. That South Africa’s international relations policy will not be dictated to by anyone else but South Africans and their government.

Threats of investors pulling out such as Amazon, Google, VISA and Microsoft are unfounded. These companies came to the G20 even though the Trump administration didn’t show up. US companies are confident in the South African economy as seen by Walmart recently entering the South African market. South Africa is open for business and is a safe destination for global companies to do business.

We reiterate that South Africa believes in a multipolar world which respects international law and international institutions that support a system of multilateralism.

An unarmed Iranian ship was invited, along with the U.S., to be part of an Indian Naval exercise, and its sailors paraded on land before the president.

The U.S. at the last minute pulled out of the exercise and instead attacked the Iranian ship with a torpedo.

Breaking with all norms of civilization and warfare, we then refused to rescue the drowning survivors. The Sri Lanka Navy was left to pull the dead bodies from the water.

I am hard pressed to think of any other nation throughout history that would do something so cowardly and despicable. We are genuinely in a league of our own, and American media — mostly shrugging off the bombing of a girls school and acting as if carpet bombing Tehran is a normal military tactic — is deeply complicit.

[U.S. Ambassador to the Republic of South Africa @USAmbRSA]

Today, visiting the Apartheid Museum was a profound reminder of the courage and sacrifice that shaped South Africa’s democracy. What a powerful moment to listen, learn. As the United States celebrates 250 years of independence, I am reminded that liberty and justice are shared ideals and values that bind the people of our two nations.

[Blue Georgia @BlueGeorgia]

Remember when Trump said all those crosses in South Africa were burial sites for farmers who were victims of "white genocide?"

Turns out it was all bullshit. Anderson Cooper found the guy who put them up.

All Trump does is lie and the Cult laps it up.

South African journalist Max du Preez says the Trump administration’s policy of granting refugee status to White South Africans is a ��complete absurdity,” adding, “They’re saying White lives are worth more than other lives.” https://t.co/XtqpBQ3JR0

This is Linda Davis, a special education teacher who was killed in a car crash involving ICE agents

The agents didn’t render aid.

She was minutes from her school and bled to death in her car.

They didn’t offer aid to Renee Good or Alex Pretti either.

Say her name too.

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

Flags at half mast speak loudly about who a nation chooses to honor.

When Charlie Kirk, a racist agitator who trafficked in division and grievance, died, Trump moved swiftly to lower the American flag, a symbolic gesture of national mourning.

But when Reverend Jesse Jackson, a global civil rights icon, freedom fighter, and lifelong advocate for justice, dignity, and unity passed away, there was no such urgency. No national gesture. No unifying call to honor a man whose life’s work helped expand democracy and human rights for millions.

Instead, the president took to social media to center himself rather than the legacy of a giant who marched with Dr. King, negotiated for the oppressed, and spent decades bringing people together across race, class, and nation.

Let that contrast sink in.

A figure known for stoking division is memorialized with the full weight of presidential symbolism, while a civil rights statesman whose mission was reconciliation, equality, and global justice is met with indifference.

That is not just an oversight.
That is a statement of values.

History will remember who was honored, how they were honored, and who was quietly minimized.

And it raises a sobering question:
What does it say about the soul of a nation when a divider is mourned with national symbols, but a unifier is not?
