Host: Folarin Balogun was born in New York, but he was only born in the U.S. because his mother was denied the ability to fly home after being in the U.S. on vacation. Trump is so fixated on getting rid of birthright citizenship, but he is fighting for this individual to play on the field for the U.S.

In February 2007, Andrew Mwenda @AndrewMwenda resigned from Monitor and KFM due to editorial interference with free journalism, including freedom to criticise Mr Museveni and his family. Here are some excerpts from his awesome resignation letter:

Denzel Washington was right, always be thankful for the bad things in life. They open your eyes to see the good things you weren't paying attention to before.

“The lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from the wolves. One must therefore be a fox to recognize traps, and a lion to frighten the wolves.”

"If you willingly break the law to protect those in power against the law, what makes you think you will have the protection of the law when those in power leave? And they will one day leave, just as surely as the sun rises and sets." – Former presidential candidate Major General (Rtd) Gregory Mugisha Muntu, founder of the Alliance for National Transformation (ANT). THE BEST PRESIDENT UGANDA NEVER HAD.

First, there was a wave of abductions of @NUP_Ug supporters - mostly targeting foot soldiers. Some people said those were hooligans who deserved to be taught a lesson. "Even hooligans deserve due process.", we cried out. Many people looked the other way.

Now, they're abducting the most accomplished in our society.

Maybe if we had worked collectively to protect the lowest in our society, the regime would never have been emboldened to come for the highest in our society.

The same lesson applies to those who are indifferent to the happenings, whether they feel safe on account of being in power, close to those in power, or simply unconcerned.

This was Hon. Miria Matembe pleading with the Magistrate to allow her to go for treatment for her back. "At least Amin used to shoot you, po! But this kind of breaking......." She said.

For context, this senior citizen was one of the eminent Ugandans who traversed this country seeking views on the 1995 Constitution! As I saw her crying out, I couldn't help but imagine what was going on in her mind. Mulimba mutufuze bubi nnyo!

The real economic crisis isn’t unemployment,it’s people working full-time and still not being able to afford basic life. Kikwaffu ku ground colleagues.

[Charles Onyango-Obbo @cobbo3]

Memorable quotes from the sharp-penned Ugandan journalist, commentator, and photographer Timothy Kalyegira .@TimKalyegira who went missing for four days before he was charged on Monday, June 29:
-"In this day and age, ruling people for 40 years is a mark of shame, not genius."
-Ultimately we all die poor. Nobody takes their six-bedroom house to the grave."
-On Uganda's economy: "Primitive accumulation of primitive wealth, by primitive people, for primitive reasons."
-"The only profitable economic activity left is praising the First Family, praising government projects, praising Big Men, [or] running for MP."
-"The people with money don't have brains and the people with brains don't have money."

Good bye free press,
Good bye democracy,
Good bye freedom,
I doubt we’ll meet again soon my dear friends but maybe one day, you’ll meet my daughter or my grandkids. I promise to tell them all about you three and the good times we had.
