📌Bookmark this ‼️🚨WHY CHANDE’S COMMISSION IS. NOT INDEPENDENT‼️ The Commission of Inquiry that was formed by Samia Suluhu (the main culprit in #TanzaniaMassacre) does not meet the minimum threshold of an independent inquiry body nor is it legally armed to deal with the gross violations of human rights that occurred I will break it down here for UN Human Rights Council Int'l Criminal Court EU Commission European Parliament World Bank Africa IMF Africa Ambassador of Sweden to Tanzania Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office The Commonwealth African Union and anyone who is still waiting for the report and hoping it can resolve the unprecedented stand off in #Tanzania The commission is about blaming the victims and not looking for the real perpetrators and killers. This was evident on November 20, 2025, when the Commissioners were being sworn in. Samia Suluhu Hassan issued directives that fundamentally shape the direction of the Commission of Inquiry into the October 29 killings. Rather than establishing accountability for the killing of unarmed civilians, the framework of the inquiry appears to shift responsibility away from the state and toward the victims and civil society. The directives emphasize: 👉🏽Why youth protested, instead of who used lethal force 👉🏽Opposition rhetoric, instead of state actions 👉🏽NGOs and alleged funding networks 👉🏽Political relationships and narratives What is absent is decisive and central: 👉🏽No explicit focus on security forces 👉🏽No clear demand for command-chain accountability 👉🏽No prioritization of identifying those responsible for killings and injuries This approach risks transforming an accountability process into a political narrative investigation, where the behavior of victims is scrutinized more intensely than the conduct of armed actors! A genuine inquiry into mass killings must begin with one non-negotiable question: Who authorized and carried out the violence against unarmed civilians? Without that, the process cannot credibly be called justice. (👇🏾 continues below)

FULL VIDEO OF MY EXCHANGE WITH POLICE OVER AN ANTI-ISRAEL TWEET! As salaamu alaykum, A few points of clarification regarding this exchange: • As a general rule, NO ONE is legally obliged to speak to the police without a lawyer present. Nor are you legally obliged to let the police into your home without a warrant. • I was under no legal obligation to speak to the police. Nor did the two detectives request to come in — I invited them in (they wanted a “few minutes” at the doorstep). I made an exception to the rule because I wanted to film the exchange and gauge exactly what their reasons and grounds were for visiting me. • The police detective confirmed that “no offence has been committed” yet they felt the need to visit me to tell me to “be mindful” of what I post on social media. They hadn’t even read or watched my clarification statement. They did not request or demand that my initial tweet of the Dagestan airport incident should be deleted. • Irrespective of how “pleasant” the exchange was, and putting aside how “respectful” I *chose* to be, make no mistake, what occurred was passive intimidation by the state at the behest of pro-Israel lobby groups. • The police mentioned at least three times they didn’t want me to be the “victim” of any hate or violence — this is clear proof that racist and Islamophobic supporters of Israel which the likes of Douglas Murray appeal to pose an actual violent threat. I unequivocally stand by the position that Israeli citizens travelling to Muslim countries should be met with non-violent protests at airports in solidarity with occupied Palestine. May Allah (swt) grant victory and liberation to the Muslims of occupied Palestine, ameen!

Officer and Sergeant tag team violating this guy's rights until the Sergeant realizes they were both wrong. ​Let’s talk about reasonable suspicion, constitutional literacy, and blatant unlawful detainment. ​ Christopher Biederstedt (IDC Chris) was standing on a traditional public sidewalk filming the exterior of the Mendota Lutheran Home in Mendota, IL. He was on the public sidewalk only. He trespassed on no property. He was merely exercising a right protected by decades of established Supreme Court precedent and granted to us by the constitution. ​Yet, what followed was a textbook display of officer incompetence and disregard for the Fourth Amendment. ​Officer Holland arrived on scene and immediately ordered Chris to stop walking and recording, escalating a consensual encounter straight into a non-consensual Terry stop. Her stated justification? That people inside were "upset" and that she was investigating "disorderly conduct" under Illinois law. ​Here is the fundamental legal reality: Public photography from a public sidewalk is not a crime, and citizen discomfort does not create reasonable, articulable suspicion. ​Instead of investigating whether an actual crime had occurred, Officer Holland slapped handcuffs on Biederstedt, depriving him of his liberty, and actively went to solicit a criminal complaint from a staff member after the fact. Placing someone in cuffs first and fishing for a charge later is the definition of an unlawful seizure. ​Then comes Sergeant Stewart. While some praise the sergeant for ultimately shutting down the arrest, the reality is that the sergeant contributed directly to an ongoing Fourth Amendment violation. Rather than immediately establishing whether lawful grounds existed to keep a citizen in handcuffs, the sergeant stood there interrogating Biederstedt, demanding explanations, and attempting to lecture him on cooperation while he remained unlawfully restrained. Supervisors are supposed to prevent constitutional violations in real time—not participate in an illegal detention before finally realizing their subordinate manufactured a baseless disorderly conduct charge. ​Only after Officer Holland returned ready to transport Biederstedt to jail did Sergeant Stewart finally state the obvious: walking on a sidewalk and filming a building from the outside is completely legal, no matter who is bothered by it. ​Biederstedt was unhandcuffed and released without charges. There are no public records or filings indicating that a formal federal civil rights lawsuit (42 U.S.C. § 1983) was pursued following the incident, but cases like this serve as a glaring reminder: if officers don't know the basic threshold of a lawful Terry stop, your rights are only as safe as the incompetence in uniform on scene. ​Know your rights. You are allowed to film in public from public spaces. Hold authority accountable to your rights, it is your right to exercise those God given rights.

37 year old teacher gets caught after doing the unthinkable with her student in her classroom. ​The case began through an alert submitted via the school’s digital reporting platform, ParentSquare. Rather than letting rumors circulate or allowing potential digital evidence to disappear, school resource deputies and detectives immediately initiated on-site interviews. ​Investigators pulled the 17-year-old student into a private administrative office to determine the validity of the report. To the credit of the young student, he fully cooperated from the very beginning. He detailed that inappropriate interactions had occurred on campus grounds after school hours, but made it clear that he had recognized the boundary violation roughly a week prior, severed communication, and blocked all digital contact. ​While one deputy remained with the student, detectives simultaneously met with 37-year-old teacher Heather Mashburn-Smith inside her classroom. ​After being formally advised of her Miranda rights, Mashburn-Smith provided a full confession to investigators. In the footage, detectives walked through the layout of the classroom, confirming where encounters occurred, identifying entry points, and documenting how the room had been arranged after hours following athletic practices. Throughout the recorded walk-through, she confirmed to investigators that she was fully aware of the student’s age and student status. ​Mashburn-Smith was placed into custody and transported to the Charlotte County Jail. ​The Statutory Charge: Booked under Florida Statute § 794.05 (Unlawful Activity with Certain Minors). ​While standard violations under this statute can carry second-degree felony penalties, Florida law elevates offenses committed by educators and school staff who hold direct custodial authority over the minor into a First-Degree Felony. ​A first-degree felony under Florida law carries potential sentencing exposure of up to 30 years in state prison. ​Charlotte County Public Schools placed Mashburn-Smith on immediate administrative leave while pursuing formal termination and full legal accountability. ​This case highlights several critical aspects of school safety and modern police work: Anonymous community reporting platforms allow students and observers to raise red flags before situations escalate further. ​Isolating the parties and securing immediate post-Miranda interviews locked down the timeline and digital paper trail without room for fabrication. ​The law imposes significantly harsher penalties on educators, coaches, and staff who cross professional and legal boundaries with students in their care. Heather Mashburn-Smith made her initial court appearance in Charlotte County, Florida, shortly following her late April 2026 arrest. ​During that first appearance hearing, the judge issued a strict no-contact order barring her from having any communication with the student. We will provide an update on this one once the trial is over.

Uncle Al is someone I would enjoy having a beer with, but every major claim in this video collapses under the official record and evidence released just last night. The Georgia call about 11,780 votes does not prove a corrupt system that one person can simply manipulate. Trump asked officials to investigate irregularities. The claim that Russian interference “on behalf of him” wasn’t enough is built on a false foundation. The Russian collusion narrative—that the Trump campaign conspired with Russia—has been proven false. Mueller found no conspiracy or coordination. Durham documented the FBI’s thin predication, confirmation bias, and process failures. Influence operations happened. They did not alter vote tallies. The broader charge of a system designed to “subdue every vote that isn’t going for them” is contradicted by the same official processes: dozens of lawsuits, audits, and certifications across jurisdictions found no outcome-changing fraud. Last night’s White House press briefing and President Trump’s primetime address released declassified intelligence the video completely ignores: China acquired roughly 220 million U.S. voter files in what officials describe as the largest election-data compromise in history, intelligence officials suppressed the scale of that activity, and adversaries including Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea have the capability to target election infrastructure. Those are the documented threats—not a one-sided conspiracy by Trump. Labeling unfavorable media for scrutiny or certain protesters as threats is not unique to one side and does not equal systematic silencing of dissent. Peaceful protest is protected. Violence is prosecutable under existing law for everyone. The assertion that “we are the majority,” approval ratings were permanently tanked, and “they” could not win another election for ten years was a prediction. History settled it: Trump won the popular vote and Electoral College in 2024. The “decade of dominance” claim failed. The promise that once Democrats regained power there would be trials, investigations, and ruined careers also met reality. Democrats held power after 2020. Cases proceeded. Voters then returned Trump to office. Many of the people declared finished remain active in public life. Accountability under the law does not run in only one direction. Democracy does win through elections, courts, and the next cycle of voting. That is exactly what occurred. Anger can motivate. Accurate facts and the actual record matter more. The simple fact is, our elections are not secure. One side of the aisle knows this and exploits it for power, the other side tucks its tails between its legs and sticks its head in the sand. One man, President Trump, is fighting like hell to bring is fair and truthful elections.

The Firearms Control Amendment Bill cannot be steamrolled through Parliament. In the Portfolio Committee on Police, I raised a serious concern with the Civilian Secretariat for Police Service. On slide 9 of their presentation, the Secretariat referred to the review of the Firearms Control Amendment Bill and used the words “to ensure enactment.” That wording matters. It suggests that the outcome has already been decided: push the Bill through, and treat Parliament and public participation as process boxes to tick afterwards. I asked the Secretariat directly whether they intend to advance the Bill in its current form, or whether they are prepared to substantially reconsider it based on actual evidence and stakeholder input. Because right now, the approach does not line up with the serious concerns raised by stakeholders, the slow Nedlac process, and the failures we already see in the current firearm control system. My question was simple: Why is the Department prioritising further legislative restriction before demonstrating measurable improvements in: -the Central Firearms Registry; -SAPS’s own firearm losses; -illegal firearm recovery; -firearm tracing; -ballistic capacity; and -actual enforcement against criminal possession of firearms? I also made it clear: the Portfolio Committee on Police is not a rubber stamp. The Secretariat then made an important concession. They accepted that the word “enactment” may need to be revised. More importantly, they confirmed that they have commissioned research into whether the current firearm legislation is actually being fully implemented, and what the failures in implementation are. The most important line from the response was this: “We can’t rush to the amendment of legislation if, for instance, it’s the failures of the implementation of the current legislation.” That is exactly the point. Marco van Niekerk captured this well in his article. The concern is that government appears to be moving towards new restrictions before properly diagnosing the real problem. He also points out that the failures are not theoretical: CFR dysfunction, state firearm losses, weak tracing capability, and limited enforcement against criminal possession of illegal firearms are all part of the problem. (Here is Marco’s article on The Common Sense: And to add insult to injury, this past week the SANDF confirmed that military weapons were stolen from Tek Base in Lyttelton. Reports state that three R4 assault rifles and a grenade launcher were stolen after a break-in was discovered on 27 April. Access was suspected to have been gained by cutting a hole in the perimeter fence, and a burglar door was forced open. That raises obvious questions. Where were the controls? Was there functioning CCTV? Were there alarm systems? Were there access logs? Were there armed patrols? Were inventories being audited? How can military-grade weapons be stolen from a base while government wants to tell law-abiding citizens that the problem is that they are not regulated enough? This is the contradiction. The State loses firearms. The State fails to secure military weapons. The State struggles with tracing and ballistics. The CFR remains dysfunctional. Criminals continue to possess illegal firearms. But the policy answer is apparently more restriction on lawful firearm owners. That is not good enough. South Africa does not need symbolic legislation. We need enforcement. We need working systems. We need accountability. We need functioning ballistics. We need a competent CFR. We need state-owned firearms secured. We need illegal firearms recovered. We need criminals prosecuted. Any revised Firearms Control Amendment Bill must be evidence-based, transparent and properly consulted on. No steamrolling. No predetermined enactment. No rubber-stamping. Fix the State’s failures first.

It hurts that Democrats were unable to force Trump to fix Obamacare. But Democrats still got more out of this shutdown than any prior shutdown, going back decades. The sad truth is that most government closures DO end with proponents of the shutdown coming up short regarding their demands. (In fact: name ONE shutdown in the past 30 years where the shutdown proponents got everything they wanted — or even something CLOSE to what they wanted. Go ahead. Ask chat. I‘ll wait.) So we didn’t win on the POLICY of fixing premiums. (At least, not yet. That may not happen until after the midterms, unfortunately.) But we did win on the POLITICS. We centered skyrocketing healthcare costs as a major issue. And Democrats made the GOP own the pain of higher premiums. That’s not nothing. The GOP now is firmly on the wrong side of an 80/20 issue. That’s cold comfort for the people whose premiums are going up. But the Republicans proved they don’t CARE very much about the pain of the American people — shutdown or no shutdown. Trump and the GOP proved they were willing to let planes fall from the sky, American children starve and federal workers get evicted from their homes— rather than find a way for you to see a doctor. That level of callousness put liberals in a bind. At some point Democrats were going to have to decide how many actual, HUMAN LIVES — federal workers, airline passengers, hungry children— they were willing to risk to make Trump look bad. Because the hope of forcing Trump to save Obama subsidies were fading fast. I wish Democrats could have won more with this one tactic. But at least we advanced the process of fixing healthcare. And while most Americans will be grateful to have fully functioning airports for Thanksgiving, they wont forget which party refused to take their health costs seriously. No, that’s not everything. But it’s sure not nothing.

This message by the MD/CE Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria Mrs Olubunmi Kuku is an important one. I can feel her frustrations; even from this video. I really do hope it does help to make some change happen. That said, even if these officials behave, even without the begging and soliciting, nothing will ever make seeing 18 officials in uniforms of many colours welcoming for even Nigerians returning home, let alone new visitors to Nigeria. I know this bit is beyond the FAAN. 1. NDLEA should have no business with searches or questioning of passengers. I should have no business seeing an NDLEA official except my luggage triggers their interest. Then, AVSEC can hand the passenger over to NDLEA. NDLEA can be at the airport but to be seen by a passenger means that passenger is already in trouble. 2. Customs should have limited role. This is on the back of the ruling Dr Joe Abah, OON just tweeted. It means Customs should only be required to deal with passengers who bring goods that require their attention. My small luggage should not have to be opened by customs officials ALL the time. It’s a waste of national resources and a waste of passengers’ time. 3. After the scanners, when leaving Nigeria, passengers have no business with any official except their luggage triggered a need. That means all the NDLEA, Customs and whatever else others waiting to ask pointless questions right after the scanner, they should be posted where they can do actual jobs and not the make-belief consular one. 4. DSS have no business with documenting passports in or out. Leave that to Immigration. DSS and Immigration already exchange data. That process must become robust enough to keep DSS away from arriving and departing passengers. Again, except when needed. 5. Arriving passengers should only be engaged based on suspicion. The current practise of engaging EVERY arriving passenger and asking that they open their luggage is anachronistic and frankly speaking, barbaric. I can imagine the sort of headache someone who heads the FAAN will have just wishing to deliver an airport with world class experience or at least a respectable one. However, it’s quite clear than they do not have as much control over the airport as they ought to. The “Authority” in their name is only as far as the FG helps to organise this system to serve Nigeria and its visitors. The airports have a design problem that requires big paradigm shifting solutions from above. All the best to everyone, like Mrs Kuku, doing their best with the design they have been handed.

Careless officer causes crash while speeding to a call causing a life changing moment. ​On December 7, 2025, at approximately 2:45 a.m., a tragic intersection collision on Columbus’ west side occurred. Columbus Division of Police Officer Kaitlin Robinson was responding to an urgent domestic burglary in progress. A 911 caller reported that her adult son was aggressively attempting to force entry into her home by banging on the doors and windows. Due to the high-stakes threat of violence, Officer Robinson was traveling eastbound on West Broad Street at a high rate of speed with emergency lights and sirens fully activated. As Officer Robinson approached the intersection at North Central Avenue, she faced a red traffic light. Simultaneously, a white Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck, driven by 30-year-old Corey Tinnes, entered the intersection on a green light to make a left turn. The cruiser entered the intersection and collided with the driver's side of the pickup truck. The driver of the pick up was​Corey Tinnes. Not shown in the video he did sustain catastrophic injuries from the impact. He was taken to the hospital and unfortunately succumbed to his injuries. ​Officer Robinson cruiser's airbags deployed, and she was briefly trapped by made it out of the vehicle under her own power. She was transported to the hospital and later released. The Ohio State Highway Patrol took over the independent investigation to perform a forensic crash reconstruction. The incident has raised significant scrutiny regarding departmental "due regard" policies, which dictate that emergency vehicles must exercise caution and slow down sufficiently to ensure an intersection is clear before proceeding through a red light. ​As of mid-2026, Officer Robinson remains on administrative leave pending the final results of the state highway patrol's investigation. Additionally, the family of Corey Tinnes has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Columbus and Officer Robinson, alleging negligence and reckless operation. We will have to circle back on this one once the case has been settled. Was the officer at fault and negligent with her disregard to policy, or was this just a freak accident with no blame on either side?

1/ Everyone who's read Scott Alexander's "Meditations on Moloch" walks away with the same sinking feeling: "We're trapped. Individual rationality leads to collective doom. There's no way out." I believed this for years. I was wrong. 2/ First, let's make sure we're talking about the same demon. Moloch is the god of coordination failure. He's the reason we destroy the things we love through the act of competing for them. 3/ Moloch is: The arms race no one wanted but everyone joined The ocean fished to collapse by rational fishermen The inbox that devours evenings because "everyone else is online" The hiring process bloated with signals no one believes but everyone requires 4/ The pattern is always the same: Each person makes a locally rational choice. Those choices aggregate into collective catastrophe. Everyone sees it happening. No one can stop. It feels like gravity. Inevitable. Structural. 5/ Here's what changed my mind: A simple question I'd never thought to ask. "If Moloch is inevitable, why isn't everything already Moloch'd?" 6/ Think about it. Humans have been optimizing for thousands of years. If coordination failure was truly inescapable, we should be living in a hellscape of pure defection. We're not. Something is holding Moloch back. 7/ That something has a structure. And once you see the structure, you realize: Moloch doesn't win by default. He wins when four specific conditions are met. Remove any one of them, and he weakens. Remove enough, and he loses. 8/ Moloch's Four Requirements: Coordination is impossible (no communication, no trust) Defection is invisible (you can cheat without being seen) Defection is unpunishable (even if caught, no consequences) Cooperation isn't rewarded (nice guys finish last) 9/ Read that list again. Those aren't laws of physics. They're design parameters. Parameters that humans have successfully altered before. 10/ Existence Proof #1: Rule of Law Before: "Might makes right" → constant low-level violence → no investment in future → everyone worse off This was Moloch winning. 11/ Then something happened. Humans invented legal systems. Suddenly: Defection (violence, theft) became visible (witnesses, evidence) Defection became punishable (courts, enforcement) Cooperation became rewarded (contracts became enforceable) 12/ The result? Violence dropped. Trade increased. Investment became possible. Not utopia. But measurably, dramatically better. Moloch didn't disappear. He was pushed back. 13/ Existence Proof #2: Property Rights The tragedy of the commons is Moloch's favorite game. Everyone overgrazes. The commons dies. Everyone loses. "Inevitable," we're told. 14/ Except... it's not. When communities developed property norms—whether private ownership or collective management with rules—the dynamic shifted. Defection became visible. Consequences became real. Stewardship became rational. 15/ Existence Proof #3: Democratic Succession For most of history, power transferred through violence. King dies → succession war → thousands dead → winner takes throne → repeat. Pure Moloch. 16/ Then humans invented something weird: Elections. Peaceful power transfer. Losers accept results. Winners don't execute opponents. Sounds impossible. Yet here we are. 17/ I'm not saying these systems are perfect. I'm saying they exist. They prove that coordination failures can be engineered away. Moloch-escape isn't a fantasy. It's been done. Repeatedly. 18/ So what's the actual formula? Invert Moloch's four requirements: ✓ Build coordination infrastructure (communication + trust) ✓ Make defection visible (transparency architecture) ✓ Make defection costly (credible commitment mechanisms) ✓ Make cooperation pay (positive-sum structure) 19/ This is engineering, not prayer. You don't beat Moloch by being virtuous. You beat him by changing the game so that selfish actors accidentally cooperate. 20/ This is the secret hidden in plain sight: Every institution that works is a Moloch-trap. Markets. Courts. Democracies. Professional norms. Reputation systems. All are mechanisms that convert individual selfishness into collective benefit. 21/ "But wait," you say. "These systems are failing. Moloch is winning." Fair. Let me reframe: These systems are eroding. Moloch doesn't conquer—he corrodes. 22/ Here's the brutal truth: Alignment isn't a state. It's a process. Every Moloch-trap requires active maintenance. Stop maintaining, and Moloch seeps back in. 23/ This is actually good news. It means the question isn't "Can we escape Moloch?" It's "Are we willing to maintain our escapes?" 24/ The generation that built rule of law, property rights, democratic norms—they did impossible things. Not because they were smarter. Because they understood something we've forgotten: Coordination problems are solvable. 25/ New Moloch-traps are needed now. For AI development. For social media dynamics. For climate coordination. For attention economics. The old traps don't fit the new games. 26/ But the method still works: Identify where individual rationality → collective harm Find ways to make defection visible Build mechanisms that make defection costly Design structures where cooperation pays 27/ This won't happen automatically. Moloch is the default. Escape requires deliberate construction. But "requires effort" ≠ "impossible." 28/ I used to read "Meditations on Moloch" and feel despair. Now I read it as a diagnostic manual. Moloch isn't a god. He's a bug. A well-understood bug with known patches. 29/ The question isn't whether Moloch can be beaten. History already answered that. The question is whether we'll build the next generation of traps before the current ones finish eroding. 30/ Moloch is not inevitable. He's just patient. And he's betting we've forgotten how to fight. Let's prove him wrong. /end

A deeply disappointing interview, replete with misinformation. First, the claim that two Nigerians have been killed during the current wave of attacks remains entirely unsubstantiated by available information. No Nigerian National has been killed during the current waves of attacks in South Africa. Second, it is untrue that five Mozambicans were killed. While there is an active South African Police Service investigation into the deaths of two Mozambican nationals, deaths we deeply regret, we trust that this matter will be thoroughly investigated, resulting in clear accountability and justice. We once again convey our sincere condolences to the government and people of Mozambique. We have cooperated fully with your High Commission to facilitate the necessary repatriation process. It is therefore deeply strange that we are hearing for the first time, through this interview, that 15 Ghanaians are currently hospitalised. We have no information of that nature whatsoever. In fact, to date, the High Commissioner has not shared any information with us, not even regarding the single individual he previously discussed in media interviews. Regarding what you have referred to as a “nuclear default” against South African companies: this will not be triggered by the recent attacks. The truth is, mere months into the new Ghanaian administration, the operating conditions for a number of South African companies had already been made untenable. I was compelled to write to you, my dear brother, alerting you to these challenges. Be advised: I am prepared to publish that letter if its existence is denied. Third, we reiterate the findings of our Department of Home Affairs and the Border Management Authority concerning the 27 May flight of 300 individuals. Of these, 25 came from the our deportation facility, transported by the Immigration Inspectorate of the Department of Home Affairs. The remaining 275 were brought by the Ghanaian High Commissioner. Following an intensive check-in process, the travellers proceeded to BMA Immigration, where approximately 90% were found to be undocumented. Consequently, the Ghanaian Embassy was required to issue them Emergency Travel Certificates, single-page, one-way documents permitting a traveller to return only to their country of origin. Furthermore, most of these travellers were found to have overstayed their visas by more than 30 days, with some overstaying by a year or more. Let there be no misunderstanding: we will vigorously defend any frivolous or baseless lawsuit emanating from Ghana against South Africa. Our initial hope was simply to assist the Government of Ghana in repatriating its citizens in a humane and cordial manner. However, we will not continue to tolerate this public spectacles, characterised by incomplete information and outright misinformation devoid of any diplomatic decorum. Make no mistake: the South African government remains committed to regional integration. We are, and will remain, open to discussing the push and pull factors relating to migration at a bilateral level, the African Union or any multilateral forum but Let us be factual in our engagements and not pander to unnecessary public spacteclaces that are devoid of any diplomatic decorum. Having been on both ends of violence and hostility directed at migrants, Ghana has invaluable lessons to impart. We are ready to learn from your wealth of experience in this regard, including how Ghana has managed social tension while protecting, exclusively for Ghanaians, the very sectors in which Ghanaians in South Africa thrive. As we have stated on numerous occassions, violence directed at migrants is an affront to our constitutional order. Our democracy is founded on the principle that none shall suffer discrimination on the basis of race, nationality, religion, gender or sexuality. As we navigate this complex and fluid situation, we are determined to uphold this promise.

🚨Baron Coleman Breaking: Under Utah law, Charlie Kirk was not required to undergo an autopsy. Moreover, recorded police scanner audio reveals that an officer explicitly stated that he did not receive one. Scanner transcript: “He did not go in for an autopsy. The death certificate was signed by the doctor at the hospital.” Utah Code Title 26B, Chapter 8 makes that possible! • The medical examiner shall assume jurisdiction over deaths by violence or gunshot. • An autopsy shall be performed only “if, in the opinion of the medical examiner, an autopsy should be performed or if an autopsy is requested by the district attorney or county attorney having criminal jurisdiction, or by the attorney general” Here's where it gets really interesting! 👀 Charlie’s motorcade departed from Timpanogos Regional Hospital around 8:00 p.m. on September 10, 2025, to transport his deceased body to the Utah Office of the Medical Examiner in Taylorsville. The search warrant affidavit states that an autopsy was conducted on the body the same day, with Sgt. Barrett present. A standard forensic autopsy (external examination, internal examination, organ weighing, documentation, and sample collection) is a multi-hour process. Starting well after 8:00 p.m. and still producing a completed, certifiable result on the same calendar day creates an incredibly tight window to achieve that. Furthermore, during cross-examination at the preliminary hearing, Investigator Sgt. David Hull, who presented the summary, confirmed that he was not present at the examination and only had knowledge of its contents from a meeting with the medical examiner and the written report. So where is the medical examiner that allegedly performed this autopsy?! In March 2026, Guajardo relocated from Utah to Dutchess County, New York, where he was appointed as the Medical Examiner. As a result of his relocation, he is no longer affiliated with the Utah Office of the Medical Examiner and is geographically and jurisdictionally removed from the case. What about Sgt. Barrett, the officer who allegedly could be a witness? In any publicly available court filing or official disclosure, no full first name, badge number, or other identifying information for this Sgt. Barrett has been released. The prosecution’s entire account of the postmortem examination rests on two named individuals who have never testified under oath about it. One has left the state and taken a new position in New York; the other remains unidentified beyond a last name in a single affidavit. The only testimony introduced at the preliminary hearing on this point was hearsay from an investigator who was not present. This leaves no firsthand, testifying witness available to describe, under cross-examination, what actually occurred after the body left the hospital near 8:00 p.m. on September 10, 2025... Was Charlie Kirk cremated after no autopsy was performed?! How could they not perform an autopsy on Charlie?! This SCREAMS coverup. Make sure to watch Baron’s entire episode from last night! There’s a lot of information that’s not covered here that you won’t want to miss!
