"The president is not a god, or an absolute ruler or a king. He is accountable to the people. For him to follow the precedents of previous presidents who have also not given reasons, particularly Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbeki, may not be wise." #SouthAfrica www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2025...

Listening to DeSantis describe “Alligator Alcatraz”, you would think he is building a human-rights-compliant detention facility instead of the inhumane horror camp surrounded by alligator-filled canals with no due process that it is. Trafficking humans is the new big MAGA grift. #OnYourSide
