My landlord had the strangest tenant rule I've ever seen.

Every tenant in his building got one "grace month."

Once during your entire lease, you could tell him you couldn't pay rent.

He would waive that month's rent completely.

No paperwork. No proof. No repayment plan. No questions.

Just once.

When I first moved into the building, I thought it was a scam.

"People must abuse that all the time," I told him.

He smiled and said,

[Dereleen James MP @DereleenJ]

Today, I presented ActionSA’s recommendations to the Ad Hoc Committee to strengthen SAPS, improve accountability, tighten vetting processes, and end political interference in policing.

But recommendations alone aren’t enough.

This morning, I requested the Speaker to formally introduce my Private Member’s Bill: the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Amendment Bill, 2026.

ActionSA declares corruption Public Enemy Number One, and this Bill is designed to ensure that corruption is met with real consequences.

It will:

🔴 Introduce tough minimum sentences for corruption, ranging from 5 years to life imprisonment depending on the severity of the offence.

🔴 Lower the mandatory reporting threshold for corruption-related crimes from R100 000 to R30 000, making it harder for corruption to go unreported.

🔴 Double the penalties for failing to report corruption, strengthening accountability across the public and private sectors from R250 000 to R500 000.

For nearly a year, the Committee has heard how political and criminal networks captured our police service from within.

Recommendations won’t fix that.

Consequences will want só kan dit nie aan gaan nie!

Ah ah ah ah. The saga continues. 🙆🏾‍♀️

Per this story, concerning a document said to have been submitted by the DA as part of the GNU negotiations, the DA is said to have demanded that Starlink be selected as a LEO service provider. The ANC reportedly said no, that’s not how service providers are appointed.

At the same time, mind you, Amazon was also seeking a licence, so Starlink was not the only player in the game. But because Starlink was a Resolve client, and Tony Leon was part of the GNU negotiations, the ANC is said to have been pressed to give his client preferential political treatment.

If accurate, that would mean a political negotiation was being used to influence what should have been an independent regulatory outcome involving the private client of a political player. The DA would have endorsed that approach. What was allegedly being sought was essentially the substitution of a political process for the independent regulatory process entrusted to the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa. A constitutional body.

That is an extraordinary allegation. If true, what would you call it? That would be: corruption. Political interference in an independent institution? An attempt to secure political preference for a private client? Those are serious questions that demand serious answers.

INSANE. I genuinely don’t know what to say. 🤯

I happen to like Geordin. He inherited this, but leadership now owns the response. It needs to be dealt with immediately. He needs to clean house and restore order. Right now, it is chaotic.

The DA also needs to decide who speaks for the party. The messaging has been disastrous, as has the tone. Ryan increasingly acts as the GNU spokesperson. Is that messaging party-approved? Is he authorised to speak on behalf of DA Ministers on here? Do the respective Ministers approve his statements before he posts? Gareth acts as an attack dog, at times positioning himself as speaking on behalf of the DA. There are multiple competing voices, often contradicting one another, and a tone that is crass, dismissive, and quick to label anyone who disagrees as “stupid.” Is that really how the DA wants to communicate with the public? Is that party-sanctioned?

Kubi!

I hope the DA caucus demands answers and insists this is fixed. The longer these questions go unanswered, the greater the damage to the DA’s brand. The longer a clear blue line is not drawn in the sand, the greater the reputational cost.

Good luck.

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs on the farce of Western countries telling Congo to ‘just govern properly’:

‘The Kingdom of Belgium created a slave colony in Congo for 30 years. The government of Belgium ran the slave colony for another 40 years.

The CIA assassinated Congo’s first popular leader Patrice Lumumba, and then installed another dictatorship for the next 30 years.

And then Glencore and others now suck out your cobalt without giving Congo tax income. We don’t reflect on that. We say what’s wrong with you? Why don’t you govern properly?’

Don't fall for Elon Musk's gaslighting.

There is a massive, life-or-death difference between well-planned budget cuts and a sudden, reckless halt to promised medical aid.

Musk is actively lying about the fatal consequences of his USAID cuts. The US is not obligated to fund healthcare for the entire planet, but if a nation decides to pull back its global aid, it must be done responsibly. Ripping away funding mid-treatment means you are directly responsible for the preventable deaths that follow.

Instead of owning up to the fallout, Musk is flooding X with dishonest spin. He first challenged critics to name even one person whose death he caused. When people actually did, he immediately moved the goalposts, claiming that any spending cut inevitably causes deaths.

He is a dishonest charlatan trying to hide the fact that his chaotic decisions got thousands of vulnerable children and adults killed. That will be his lasting legacy

Apparently @elonmusk finds it embarrassing that his own Grok Baby called him the number one source of misinformation on X

So please don’t share this to far and wide 🙏

Russian women gave birth in Florida for the specific purpose of getting their kids US passports, in a procedure often called "birth tourism." The births occurring at properties owned by Donald Trump. Yes, he knew this was happening, and NOT once has he said anything about Russia having anchor babies in America.

Elon challenged everyone to name someone who was killed by his DOGE cuts to USAID. Nicholas Kristof, who did the study, accepted the challenge.

Instead of explaining why Kristof was incorrect, he responded with personal abuse.

He is clearly rattled.

Tony Leon's response ignores the allegations that he DID use his power inappropriately when his clients were denied access, as in Herman Mashaba's account.
Mashaba, then the DA's mayor in Joburg, reportedly declined giving Resolve's unnamed client a R300m municipal contract, despite a VERY pushy mail from former DA MP turned Resolve CEO Gavin Davis.

Mashaba says he insisted he couldn't sidestep procurement rules, and he raised the issue with DA leadership as an example of Leon's conflicted rule. He says this is when the DA leadership, influenced by Leon I assume, turned on him, which ultimately contributed to his resignation from the party shortly afterwards.

It goes without saying that Tony Leon has outsized influence in the DA and isn't just a "former leader" - he even helped negotiate the very recent GNU arrangements. His response below says his company respected leaders' decisions but that's not what the leaders themselves have said.

We also saw DA comms minister Solly Malatsi completely kowtowing to Starlink which at the time seemed odd but now knowing Resolve lobbied him aggressively and as per Steenhuisen's account, complained he was moving too slowly, this makes sense.

It's an ASTONISHING abuse of power. DA ministers and mayors have seen if they don't listen to Tony and give his clients what they want they could lose their position...
