My brother made a superb video on South Africa's first ever locally-made car. It was a sports car and a winning race car. Watch the story here:

The CEO of @MTNza, @RalphMupita has a closed profile. This figures. Bad service champions used to be 3-way race: Vodacom, DSTV, Absa. We have a new winner. MTN. Their sales people con you. Never seen such "service". When I had problem with Rain, @MichaelJordaan helped me on X.

I have this epic situation with
@MTNza about a new contract that a salesperson put my on fraudulently. I called to stop it the moment I realised what happened(June). But they charged me fees and now I'm being cut off all the time. They refuse to reconnect me. It is insane!

This crap with @MTNza, where I was scammed by their salespeople, has not been sorted out in three months. I was fraudulently put on a new contract, which has been rectified, but I'm still being charged a migration fee and other fees. Service "champion" my ass. @MTNzaService
Watch out for @MTNza sales people. I was scammed into new contract. She said MTN restructured packages and mine is discontinued, I'm moved to one where I get more airtime and data. I explicitly asked if it was a new contract. She said no. It was. This is scandalous, unacceptible.

Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?
Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

I am so sick of criminals robbing this country of decent people through murder and violent crime.
Six people I cared about have been murdered. And I hate that I - and so many others - have to endure this awful feeling of rage, pain and hopelessness.
South Africa deserves better.

In 40 minutes, Donald said: the Strait of Hormuz isn't closed, but he wants it reopened; we’re not at war with Iran, but our allies are cowards for not helping; he wants a ceasefire, but he doesn’t want one. He also declared victory three times.
Such clarity. Such leadership.
Let me explain what just happened 👇
5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil.
5 minutes…
These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch.
There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made.
Someone in that room picked up a phone.
And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars.
American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it.
This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions.
This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight.
You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question.
Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that.
The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…
BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market.
In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold.
These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time.
The trader seemingly made huge gains.
Unusual.
