The latest propaganda being pushed around UDA and 2027 is very simple.

They want Kenyans to believe that the election is already gone, that Ruto will rig, that voting will not matter, that registration is useless and that the people should enter 2027 already defeated in their minds.

That is why you are seeing this “they will rig” line being sponsored and amplified everywhere, including by sections of the media that have become very friendly to this regime.

NTV itself has carried the framing of UDA leaders allegedly plotting to rig 2027, showing how loud this narrative has become in public conversation.

To be honest, the optics of serious, countrywide rigging are too heavy for this regime.

This is a government that cannot repair potholes, cannot manage fuel prices, cannot manage schools, cannot manage hospitals, cannot manage salaries, cannot even explain simple taxes without creating anger.

You really believe the same confused regime has the intelligence, discipline, secrecy and technical sophistication to manage a clean nationwide rigging operation without being caught?

Rigging a presidential election is not like bribing a few brokers in a hotel or manipulating a small party nomination. A national election has agents, polling stations, forms, constituency tallying centres, observers, media, screenshots, live streams, parallel tallies and millions of angry citizens watching every number. The moment Kenyans realize even one vote does not tally, this country will enter a crisis bigger than anything this regime can control.

That is why I believe this “he will rig anyway” chorus is not just a warning.

It is psychological warfare meant to kill voter registration, kill turnout and create apathy. It is also meant to make young people say, “Why vote if they will steal it?” That is exactly where they want you mentally.

The real answer is not to stay home but massive registration, massive turnout, agents in every polling station, parallel tallying, civic vigilance and zero fear.

Elections are not stolen from people who are awake, organized and watching every vote. Elections are stolen from people who were discouraged before the first ballot was even cast.

So don’t fall for the propaganda. The vote still matters, registration matters, turnout mattes and polling station vigilance matters.

@Michaelfiore Saudia Arabia has the 2034 and has to build 10+ stadiums. So dumb. The usa could put on a second wc only using stadiums it didn't use in this one.

@Michaelfiore @scow_invest The US, UK, and Germany are FIFA's backup countries if the chosen host is unable to continue (a war breaks out or whatever). Those three countries can host with a month's notice.

One of the most incredible aspects of the World Cup in the United States is what we DIDN’T have to do to prepare for it.

Qatar built multiple brand new stadiums, a metro system, roads, hotels, and entire districts.

South Africa built new stadiums, parking, etc.

Brazil spent billions on stadium and transit projects.

Russia built and rebuilt venues across the country.

Meanwhile, the U.S. was like: “We’re good.”

Like, we modified the playing surface in some stadiums and that was it.

The sport venue infrastructure in the US mogs every other country on earth and it’s not even close.

you used to be able to build locally, now you have to host on an US CSP.
you used to learn a second programming language to become competitive, now American coding assists are making this obsolete.

SpaceX just bought a $60 billion company without spending a dollar.

The deal for Cursor, the AI coding tool, is all stock. No cash. SpaceX prints new shares, hands them over, done.

Now connect it to what happened last week.

SpaceX went public by floating just 4% of itself. 556 million shares against 13 billion. The tiniest free float a mega-cap has ever listed with. Index funds were forced to buy it. Retail piled in. Tiny supply, enormous demand, and the stock rocketed past $200.

Here's the part that should make you sit up.

The price SpaceX pays for Cursor is set by its own share price in the seven days before closing. The higher the stock, the fewer shares it has to print to cover $60 billion.

So the engineered scarcity that pumped the stock now makes the acquisition cheaper. The squeeze pays for the shopping spree.

A company losing $4 billion a quarter is now buying AI startups with paper it manufactured out of a 4% float.

This isn't aerospace. It isn't even AI.

It's the finest financial engineering of the century, and it's only getting started.
