For CMS Water Engineering, the R291-million Rooiwal contract alongside Edwin Sodi was just the beginning. In 2020, it secured an even bigger one: a R328-million slice of a R1.2-billion contract in Botswana, alongside Simbi Phiri’s Khato Civils. But as CMS entered the big league, the demons that had long...

Edwin Sodi could soon be blacklisted from government contracts for failing to fix the Rooiwal wastewater treatment plant, which was suspected of having a hand in the deadly 2023 cholera outbreak. Sodi has always claimed he was conned by his deceased business partner, Rudolf Schoeman Jnr. But was there some truth to the allegation? Tomorrow we launch amaBhungane’s first podcast: DEADLY WATER.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz just exposed the Tim Walz administration on huge Somali fraud, will PULL federal funding if he doesn't fix it "Either fix this in 60 days or start looking under your couch for spare change, because we’re done footing the bill for your incompetence!" "Why didn’t Walz stop them? That’s simple: because he went all-in on identity politics." "Based on what we know now, this is a clear dereliction of duty." Officials are demanding IMMEDIATE investigation not only into Walz, but his entire government because of the Somali fraud "The housing program was supposed to cost $2.6 million dollars annually. Last year, it paid out over $100 million. The autism program ballooned from $3 million in 2018 to nearly $400 million in 2023." Minnesota must: 1. Provide CMS with weekly updates on how the state is stopping fraud. 2. Freeze enrollment of all high-risk providers for 6 months. 3. Confirm all providers in place are legitimate or remove them. 4. Send CMS a corrective action plan of how these will prevent this from happening again.

In 2015, SAFA bought a water park for R65-million. 8 years later there’s little sign of the world-class technical centre that was promised. SAFA wants another R600-million for Fun Valley. But when #BanyanaBanyana asked for bonuses, SAFA said it couldn’t afford it.

Elon Musk’s Secret Michigan Empire “Elon Musk came in, bought up Riviera Tool & Die. This was before Donald Trump became president. So he came in, bought up Riviera Tool & Die because he wanted to start producing his stamping tools in the United States instead of Asia, because he was realizing there's a lot of problems that they were encountering with these foreign made tools. And it's hard to solve a problem when you have a language barrier. So he bought up Riviera Tool & Die reopens as Tesla Michigan in Grand Rapids. When he bought that up, he took a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy, that couldn't hire anybody to turned it, turned it into something awesome. I mean, the number of people that Tesla Grand Rapids now hires to build stamping tools right here in Grand Rapids. And then not just that, he farms out the work that Tesla Grand Rapids can't handle. To auto die, to Artiflex, to Greenville Tool and die, to Walker tool and die, to basically every die shop here in this region is making stuff for Tesla. He I don't know the number, but it's in the thousands upon thousands of jobs he has created just in West Michigan because he wanted to make his, his parts in America. How can you hate that? You really can't.”

🚨The Day of the Vow. On this day 16 December 1838 - the Battle of Blood River took place‼️ The battle involved 470 Boers (including women and children) against an estimated 10,000–15,000 Zulu attackers on the bank of the Ncome River. For each Boer there were approximately 30 Zulu warriors. By the end of the battle, over 3000 Zulu's were dead with NOT one Boer death. The Ncome River ran red from all the spilled blood - hence the name of the battle. On that day, the Boers made a vow that if they were victorious they would build a church and honor the day forever. The Day of the Vow was named a religious holiday and was celebrated in South Africa each 16th of December......until the ANC came to power and hi-jacked this holy day and called it the Day of Reconciliation. But, we will never forget. So, to honor the vow made to God by the Boers before the battle, we remember the Day of the Vow and the brave men, women and children who fought for their lives and won against such enormous odds. In English: He stand here before the Holy God of heaven and earth, to make a vow to Him that, if He will protect us and give our enemy into our hand, we shall keep this day and date every year as a day of thanksgiving like a sabbath, and that we shall erect a house to His honour wherever it should please Him, and that we will also tell our children that they should share in that with us in memory for future generations. For the honour of His name will be glorified by giving Him the fame and honour for the victory. In Afrikaans: Hier staan ons voor die Heilige God van hemel en aarde om ʼn gelofte aan Hom te doen, dat, as Hy ons sal beskerm en ons vyand in ons hand sal gee, ons die dag en datum elke jaar as ʼn dankdag soos ʼn Sabbat sal deurbring; en dat ons ʼn huis tot Sy eer sal oprig waar dit Hom behaag, en dat ons ook aan ons kinders sal sê dat hulle met ons daarin moet deel tot nagedagtenis ook vir die opkomende geslagte. Want die eer van Sy naam sal verheerlik word deur die roem en die eer van oorwinning aan Hom te gee.

Gavin Newsom just said in an interview that Elon Musk is a huge disappointment for "ceding the EV space to China." Newsom called China's expansion in the EV market a national security issue and said that he really fears it. Newsom is such a fraud. During the pandemic Newsom awarded a one billion dollar, no bid contract to China EV manufacturer BYD to make masks, even though the company had never manufactured masks or any health care supplies before. Newsom even paid them $500 million up front to help them get started before ultimately extending the contract past a billion dollars. In 2023 Newsom flew to China and met with BYD to discuss bringing their cars into the states. Newsom: "We've got to get these in the states."

🚨 A BETRAYAL LIKE WE’VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE 🚨 United States Deputy Chief of Staff and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller just said it: “The reason why those Americans in North Carolina — those mothers, those fathers, those precious little children — were left to die begging their government for help that never came… …is because the Democrats turned FEMA into an illegal alien resettlement agency.” They said FEMA had NO money and left fathers to die in Maui. They said FEMA had NO money and left mothers to die in East Palestine. They said FEMA had NO money and left children to die in North Carolina. They said FEMA had NO money and left babies to die in Pacific Palisades. But somehow FEMA had an extra $1 BILLION for illegals — including Social Security, Medicaid, SNAP, and even voter registration. This was deliberate. This was betrayal. Americans first. Always.

Nick Wright on the Stephen A. Smith and Jaylen Brown situation: “Just to level set to way this thing is supposed to work. Jaylen Brown is I don’t know, let’s call him roughly the 10th best player in the NBA. He is as the 10th best player on a $300 million contract. Stephen A. As the number 1 guy in the entire industry of what we do is on and I only know this because he made sure everybody knew it is on $100 million contract. While God bless him and credit to him I appreciate it the risings high and raising boats. That is a little reminder nobody how big the commentator gets he will never be quite as big as the people he’s commenting on. If the 10th or 11th best guy in just one of the sports you cover is by your own metrics 3x the salary. It’s a good idea of where we stand in the marketplace.” (Via What’s Wright? with Nick Wright)

Imagine, a taxpayer father stood in the cold and watched his taxpayer son die, for two hours. Not suddenly. Not instantly. But slowly, minute by minute, while his voice echoed in the dark. “Papa, please save me.” 27-year-old Yuvraj Taxpayer Mehta was alive. He was standing on the roof of his car, trapped in a water-filled pit in Greater Noida. He had survived the crash. He had the strength to climb up. He had the presence of mind to call his father. And the father came running. What he saw when he reached the spot will haunt him for the rest of his life. A car sinking. Cold, black water rising. His son was visible. Shivering. Calling out. Police were there. Officials were there. Rescue forces were informed. And yet, for two hours, nothing happened. The father pleaded. The son screamed. Time passed. The car kept sinking because the pit, a massive construction hole left open without barricades, lights, or warnings, had been waiting there like a death trap. Low visibility did the rest. Yuvraj had not driven recklessly. He had driven into the government's negligence. As his father watched, helpless, his dear boy slowly disappeared under the water. The authorities refused to help because "water was too cold", "they were scared of iron objects in the water", they didn't have proper equipment". So the state stood still. This is the reality of our country. In the end, it was not a uniformed officer who acted. It was a delivery agent named Moninder, who could no longer bear to watch. He jumped into the pit on his own. By then, it was too late. The car and the boy had disappeared into dark silence. Ask yourself, was this an accident? Was this his fate? It was a chain of human decisions: - to leave a pit open, - to ignore safety, - to wait instead of act, - to choose fear over duty. A father watched his son die that night, not because help was impossible, but because help was delayed until courage arrived too late. We must ask ourselves something painful, when a citizen can die in full view of the system, crying for two hours, and still be abandoned what exactly are we paying the taxes for? Just to fund the luxurious life of politicians in power and government officials? The boy's dead body was pulled out the next morning.

From Our Archives: In 2024, Minenhle Mavuso (24) was living two separate lives. In one, the BA psychology graduate ran an online wig store – Milo Hair Beauté – where a super double drawn bob would set you back R1180. In the other, she ran Severino Industries, a company that was bidding for a R21-billion contract to supply diesel to Eskom’s Ankerlig power station.

A Stanford statistician built a dice-rolling machine to prove board game companies have been selling you loaded dice for a hundred years. The machine drops dice inside a glass chamber, records every landing, and runs the sequences through statistical tests. Every mass-produced die it tested was biased. Every Monopoly die. Every Yahtzee cube. Every D&D twenty-sider. Every casino die below one hundred dollars. The bias is so small the human eye cannot see it in one game. It is so consistent it drains a player over a night at a real table. His name is Persi Diaconis. He is 79. He ran away from home at fourteen to learn card magic from Dai Vernon. He came back twenty years later with a PhD in statistics from Harvard and became the person casinos, magicians, and mathematicians all quietly consult when they need to know how something actually shuffles, rolls, or falls. This eight-minute Numberphile clip is Diaconis explaining exactly what the machine found. The dots on a die are drilled holes. The paint filling them weighs less than the plastic that was removed. The six face is lighter than the one face. Every die you have ever owned has been tilted by a fraction of a gram since the day it left the factory. Casinos already knew. A single die at the Bellagio costs one hundred and fifty dollars, is discarded after eight hours of use, and is engineered so the paint in the pits weighs exactly what the plastic did. That is the whole difference between a game piece and a regulated instrument. Here is what Diaconis proved on the record. A cheap six-sided die favors the six face over thousands of rolls. A plastic twenty-sided die can favor certain numbers by a substantial margin depending on how the corners are cut. A thirty-sided die, unless the internal geometry is spherical, rolls some faces two to three times more often than others. One retired executive rolled a single die three and a half million times before it physically wore round. Euclid worked out part of this in 300 BC. Diaconis has spent forty years finishing the rest. "There is no such thing as a fair die. There are only dice fair enough for the purpose you are using them for." Fairness is not a property of the die. It is a property of the die plus the throw plus the surface. Change any one and the same die stops being fair. The video is free. Diaconis's papers are free on his Stanford page. Everyone who has ever argued over a roll has been trusting a piece of plastic they never checked. The math is free. The willingness to admit your die is loaded is a much rarer commodity than fairness.

“This whole thing about measles is just a scare tactic to push vaccinations” Dr. Sherri Tenpenny just broke down the truth about measles and the vaccine, starting all the way back in 1962: “The measles vaccine came out in 1963.” “In 1962, the death rate from measles was two in a million.” “So it was not even deadly before we had a vaccine.” “Measles is a fever, a cough, a rash, sometimes some diarrhea, runny eyes and runny nose.” “The real high fever that most kids get measles in about age nine helps to burn off any residual proteins that you have in your body from your mother.” “We know that people who have had natural measles have a lower risk of brain tumors.” “We know that they have a lower risk of renal disease.” “The thing that ends up happening is that we play to the lowest common denominator in all of this stuff.” “If there’s four kids that die in a year from diphtheria, well, we better vaccinate all of them because your kid might be that kid.” “If there’s 1,100 kids maybe per year that die from chickenpox because they have an underlying autoimmune disease or have some other thing that's going on, it’s like, we’ve got to vaccinate four million kids a year for chickenpox because your kid might die from chickenpox.” “One of the things that the pharmaceutical industry has learned to do very well is learn how to weaponize fear.” Dr Sherri Tenpenny

Data Centers are coaching their workers on how to lie to the public and their family about how Data Center water usage is actually a good thing “I work at an architecture firm that mainly does data centers, and just to give you all an idea of how out of touch the people making these things are. Today we had a meeting where we were essentially asked to defend the water usage of data centers to our friends and family in conversation at the dinner table or online. They provided them with a graph to break down water usage (included) but I’ll go over it The chart compares “domestic water usage” (toilets, sinks, etc.) for a typical-sized closed-loop data center of 600,000 gallons per year against other things of “equivalent square footage”: Cornfield: 5.85 million gallons Vineyard: 5.60 million Golf course: 5.45 million Peanut farm: 2.88 million Movie theater: 935,000 5 households: 730,000 They make the point that “Data centers aren’t the big water users you think” But that’s not really true “It's still using an incredible amount of water — and the key piece of evidence here was when someone gets pissed at a data center's water usage, ask them if they like golf. And when they say yes, let them know that a golf course uses 9 times as much water much water as a data center. That'll shut them up, because no one disapproves of golf courses using an exorbitant amount of water…” Not to mention, this is incredibly misleading The 600,000 gallons is mostly just building operations of things like sinks and bathrooms. It downplays or completely excludes the main water use, which is cooling the servers More fake propaganda

These water trucks are heading from Russia's Rostov toward Ukraine. Due to Russian occupation, Donetsk region has been left without water. The region is currently suffering from extreme heat, and water is almost entirely unavailable. Both drinking and technical water now has to be delivered to more than 1.2 million residents of Donetsk and Makiivka, as well as to half a million people in other towns and cities. There is also a shortage of water for Russian soldiers from the "Center" and "East" military groupings. The hopelessness of the situation is not that there is no way to deliver water - because of leaky pipes, destroyed water intakes, and pumping stations. The real disaster is that the water itself has physically run out. In the Donetsk coal basin, nearly all mines have been flooded during the occupation. As long as the mines were operating or kept in dry conservation, water was regularly pumped out. But after Russian forces occupied the city in 2014, they first sold all the equipment from these mines for scrap metal, and then simply flooded everything. Flooding the mines means stopping the pumping of water from them - disrupted water horizons, underground rivers, etc. do their job. The tragedy is that once a mine fills up, its contents mix with these groundwater horizons. The resulting excess pressure forces this mine water to rise to the surface, creating huge rust-colored swamps - that's iron oxide. As a result, all water horizons in Donbas are now unfit for any use. This is a massive environmental catastrophe that no one is talking about.
