Despite allegedly being found with R321 000 in sealed South African Reserve Bank cash bags during a raid linked to a corruption probe, Themba Mathibe remains CEO of the Johannesburg Development Agency. Mayor Dada Morero’s push to suspend him was reportedly vetoed by his own deputy and an MMC. Scopa chairperson Songezo Zibi tore into City leaders during an 11-hour hearing earlier this year, saying their failure to act looked like “a cover-up”.  news24.com/politics/johannes…

I am 55. I have not missed a single election since 1994, no matter how despondent I might have been at the prospects or the process. It still excites me, this thing called democracy.

ABDUL EL-SAYED WINS Our movements just defeated hundreds of millions of dollars, MAGA, and pro-genocide groups. We showed that organizing, people power, and solidarity can make history. Abdul El-Sayed will be the next U.S. Senator for Michigan! @AbdulElSayed has remained clear throughout this race: the U.S. must stop funding and arming Israeli genocide and apartheid. And he will go to D.C. to govern on a mandate of fighting for working families and to keep money in our communities - not fund genocide and war abroad. The tides are shifting. Stop Arming Israel. Free Palestine.

Who is out of touch now? LOL! Your Republicans, Trump and Elon's money are getting a rejection, a proper trouncing.
I can't wait to see mainstream media talking heads, pollsters, newspaper editors and out-of-touch academics make excuses and spin if things don't go the way they've so confidently said they would. The Blue Wave, Obama on campaign, Abdul, Hillary, Kara Swisher, Hasan Piker, the DSA - pretty much all the worst people in America. Let's see what happens...
