Georgia Election Hearing Showing Evidence The State NEVER PERFORMED Their 2020 Presidential Election Audits 🚨 “Secretary of State told them that this audit took place. Well, I asked them. How many counties told you the audit took place?” “ZERO — ZERO AUDITS PERFORMED” “Evidence suggests that there was never a voting machine election audit performed in Georgia. Why is that so important? Well, we all know Georgia was a key state in determining the 2020 election results. The article goes on to say, on November 17, 2020, Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger made an announcement that an audit using forensic techniques was completed with, quote, no sign of foul play, end quote, in the 2020 election. The statement previously appeared on the secretary of state's website and is still available via the Wayback Machine here. The article links up will bring it up on screen for the viewers right now. It goes on to say from the statement, secretary of state Brad Raffensperger last week ordered Pro V and V, a US election assistance commission certified testing laboratory to do an audit of random sample of machines to confirm no hack or tamper. Pro V and V found no evidence of the machines being tampered. However, the problem is that besides a watered down audit report. There is little to no evidence that this audit actually took place. The following was from a public comment of yesterday's state election board meeting in Georgia. Take a listen. Secretary of state told 42 false statements to the United States Congress and The vice president. So within that document was the Provian v audit. He told us, the citizens, he told the SEB, he's told many courts that this Pro v and v audit took place. I worked with governor Kemp. I worked with Evan Myers, one of his, uh, attorneys. I worked with the inspector general, Scott McAfee. And they try to convince me that the secretary of state and Pro V and V told them that this audit took place. Well, I asked them. How many counties told you the audit took place? 0. We did open records request to the counties, and it came back where 0 audits were done by Pro V and V. So now we're making decisions. Our legislators are making decisions on an audit that never took place. Thank you for your comments. Thank you.” This video is over 6 minutes so I can’t transcribe it all due to X’s text limits but it’s another excellent listen!!

'KUNG EVIDENCE LANG BASEHAN... 100% CONVICTION' Akbayan Representative Perci Cendaña asserts that if evidence will be the sole basis of the impeachment court then the prosecution can secure a conviction against Vice President Sara Duterte in connection to her alleged unexplained wealth. "Plus the fact na hindi nila ito dineklara sa kanilang SALN. So kaya naintidihan natin bakit ganito na lang kadesperado ang depensa kahapon na harangin 'yung paglabas ng subpoena," he told the media during an ambush interview at the Senate on Tuesday. This comes after the impeachment court granted the request of the prosecution team of the House of Representatives to subpoena the bank and tax records of Vice President Sara Duterte and her husband Manases Carpio ahead of the court’s deliberation on her alleged unexplained wealth. "Isa na naman itong matibay na ebidensya kasama nu'ng iba nating ebidensya. And sinasabi ko, kung evidence lang ang magiging basehan ng pagboto ng impeachment court, 100 percent conviction," the lawmaker added. | via Rona Amparo

Diversionary tactic of Vice President Sara Duterte EXPOSED! The Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations responded to the video message of the Vice President Sara Duterte last night and I agree that this is nothing but a diversionary tactic. In his speech as attached below, Chairman Zaldy Co pointed out very good points and I highly recommend you watch its entirety. The video message last night was a diversionary tactic to the real issues 1.) the 125 million confidential funds spent in 11 days 2.) Low PISA score 3.) Issues and questions about the DepEd expenditures and a lot more. If there is one thing I want to highlight here, it is probably the part when Chairman Zaldy Co said that Vice President Sara Duterte assured them she can defend/justify the requested confidential funds. And so, let me thank the 19th Congress for disapproving the confidential funds requested by the OVP in 2024. “Pang-apat, paulit-ulit niyang sinasabi, "I will defer to the wisdom of Congress," pero hindi ito totoo. Kung talagang iginagalang niya ang Kongreso, sasagutin niya ang mga tanong, lalo na sa isyu ng confidential funds. Last year, kinausap namin si VP Sara tungkol sa 2024 budget, at sinabi niya na “ituloy n’yo yan” – meaning ang confidential funds – dahil kaya daw niya itong i-justify. Buti na lang at hindi namin itinuloy. Tama ang ginawa namin, at saludo ako sa aking mga kasama sa Kongreso. Ang kapangyarihan ng budget ay nasa Kongreso, at ipinagmamalaki ko na hindi namin isinuko ang kapangyarihang ito sa Office of the Vice President. Ang pinag-uusapan dito ay pondo ng taumbayan. Tandaan, ang COA, hindi Kongreso, ang nagsabing mali ang paggamit ng P73-million confidential funds sa loob lamang ng 11 araw “

10 OUT OF 10: DEFENSE ‘VERY HAPPY’ TO HIT TARGETS ON DAY 3 OF IMPEACHMENT TRIAL WATCH: Defense spokesperson Michael Poa gave his panel an internal score of 10 out of 10 for meeting their targets on the third day of the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte on Wednesday, July 8. He also shrugged off claims that the defense lost on day two because of Narvasa’s repeated objections, citing counsel for public prosecutor Amando Ligutan’s own objections during the cross-examination of NBI special agent John Mark Calilung. “There’s nothing wrong with the prosecution objecting, there’s nothing wrong with us objecting. It’s just lawyers doing their jobs,” Poa said.

“Judge Heidi Breger and Judge Amy Blake told our office that they now refuse to comply with an audit from the Office of State Auditor. Do you know what we were trying to audit? Their website accessibility for disabled persons to make sure that people could get access to records from the courts. They refused to participate in the audit, and what they did is they said Attorney General Campbell sent a letter to the legislature saying that she doesn't believe that they need to be audited. Therefore, we essentially want in on this, and we are no longer going to be audited by your office either. This is a constitutional crisis here in the state of Massachusetts. And I am now supposed to go before the courts and trust that they are going to give us a fair trial and a fair hearing on this issue. My trust and faith in the judiciary right now is at an all-time low. And I know I'm not saying differently than what a lot of people feel right now.”

Tax expert explains how his client SURVIVED an IRS audit for writing off a yacht that Kobe and Shaq went on “I said, ‘Okay, that sounds legitimate, but what's the proof that you’re actually making money from this and this is an actual business vehicle?’ “She’s like, ‘Well, one, here are my clients on the boat,’ and she pulls open her phone and shows me that. Very impressed. Pretty cool to see those photos of Kobe and Shaq. But what was more impressive was that she showed me a logbook that her captain has. Her captain keeps a logbook of every single person that comes on and off of the boat in chronological order. With the logbook that her captain had, photos, receipts of her purchasing the vehicle, and the transactions that occurred from her being a realtor that year, we went into the audit. I used one tax code in that audit: Code Section 162(a). That states a business owner can take a business deduction if the deduction is ordinary in nature to the business owner, necessary in nature to the business owner, and reasonable in nature to the business owner in the pursuit of income. Slid this over to the IRS auditor. It was in our office, by the way. The audit happened in our office. The auditor said, "She knows Kobe? Wow, this is so cool." The audit was over in five minutes, and we were talking about the Lakers.”

Let’s put all our gold bars on the table. “A random sample of 450 bars (8.55 per cent of the RBA's holdings) were selected by Audit and notified to the BoE prior to Audit's arrival on-site, hence the location and retrieval from the vaults was not witnessed!” •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• In Estimates I asked the RBA if they would cooperate with the new U.S. administration when they audit the gold holdings at Fort Knox. Needless to say they took the answer on notice. It is however worth nothing that the claim by the RBA that an audit of Australia’s gold bars has been carried out is misleading. The RBA has carried out a “partial”audit of selected gold bars, only 460 of the 5,285 bars on hand and the RBA had to give prior notice of the bars they wanted to audit before they arrived. Had the RBA done their job properly they should have audited all 5,285 bars at the same time with no notice and observed the bars being removed from the vaults. Furthermore Audit reports should be done yearly, not every three years. You can read the audit report below. It’s worth nothing that the RBA has lent or swapped 1,202 bars of gold out or 22% of our entire gold holdings. These transactions are designed to force down the price of gold which is against Australia’s national interest as we are an exporter of gold. More worryingly is how do we know that the gold bars inspected by the RBA weren’t lent by another country on a short term basis to cover the audit. What is also concerning is the large amount of refining going on as evidenced by the large number of different refiners. Gold bars held by central banks should not move or be refined as it undermines confidence in their intentions. The only way to rectify this uncertainty is to audit all gold holdings at the same time and to stop lending/leasing gold bars. #auspol

𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐈𝐒 𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇! 𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐎𝐅 𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒! Sara Duterte's repeated non-appearance before Congress shows grave insult and disrespect to this institution. If she cannot respect us—the Members of the House of Representatives—at least respect the House of Representatives as an institution, at least respect the Constitution. The whole budget process is something that is being directed and recognized by the Constitution itself. So disrespecting the budgetary process of this Body is a clear case of disrespect of our Constitution. Who is she to continuously disrespect or show disrespect to this Body as an institution and to the Constitution. If she can afford to be showing herself up to the Senate, including being there, and applauding the former Senate President in his privilege speech, which is definitely not part of her mandate as a Vice President, why can't she not spare a few moments of her time attending to her official function as Vice President to defend the budget of her office. Enough is enough! Enough of her brattiness! So, I rise today to manifest my extreme displeasure about the behavior of VP Sara, and in due time, I will move for the decrease in the budget of the Office of the Vice President. I actually intended initially to move for zero budget or for the disapproval of the budget of the Office of the Vice President in light of those very questionable actuations of the part of the Vice President. But after some mulling, after some reflections, and out of courtesy also and consideration to the personnel and staff of the Office of the Vice President, I’m just now thinking of moving for the decrease, let’s say, for the retention of the MOOE and personnel services budget and get rid of the operational budget of the Office of the Vice President. I will move for that, at the proper time, during the period of amendment. And I hope that my colleagues will join me in that amendment. Wag niyang bastusin ang ating Konstitusyon!

Throw Back Thursday... MAADA BIO WRITES PRESIDENT KOROMA ON AUDIT REPORT "Dear Mr. President, For the past week, I have been following with dismay the events at home surrounding the publication of the Report of the Auditor-General on the Audit of the Management of the Ebola Funds covering the period from May to October 2014." - President Bio's letter to former President Koroma in February 2015 on the Report of the Auditor-General on the Audit of the Management of Ebola Funds. Barram went further to urge former President Koroma to give urgent consideration to recommendations of his Party, the Sierra Leone People's Party, on the report and requested that he consider setting up a Special Judicial Commission headed by a Chairman, preferably a Senior Judge from the United Kingdom appointed by the British Government which he said is vital to restore the country's national and international credibility. You can read more on the letter here: Please note that Lara Taylor-Pearce was the Auditor General who did this Audit Report cited by President Bio. The same Auditor General who did that revealing report in 2015 was suspended in 2021 for also doing another revealing audit report about receipts in the Office of the President. She went through a Tribunal, not with a Senior Judge from the United Kingdom or someone appointed by the British Government but by a retired Judge who was appointed by the President to serve as Chairman. While the Tribunal Report is still yet to be made public, sources say they have recommended that Parliament should vote for Lara's removal. Right before us, one of the most respected citizens and a professional of an institution that gave us hope when we had none about accountability is being destroyed for doing her job and we all sit and act like it's nothing and we don't care. Where are our moral guarantors and accountability advocates? Like we had a President who sacked his Vice President, one morning we will wake up to another abuse of the Supreme Executive Authority, and don't be surprised if you're told that your name and place of birth have been changed. SN: The video accompanying this text is from when President Bio received the Governance Transition Team Report in 2018. Hopefully, we will all be reminded someday of our actions and inaction. #FreetownStories #TruthTellers

SARA DUTERTE TARGETS AKBAYAN, RISA HONTIVEROS IN IMPEACHMENT CRITICISM WATCH: Vice President Sara Duterte says the Akbayan party-list has no credibility in endorsing an impeachment complaint against her, claiming that no evidence were attached to support the allegations in that complaint. She also cites a portion of the 2024 speech of Sen. Risa Hontiveros, who is associated with Akbayan, wherein Hontiveros said that Duterte is supported by China. "Hindi malinaw kung ano ang ipinaglalaban nila para sa kaayusan ng bayan, pero napakalinaw ng kanilang pamumulitika at pagpapahirap sa usaping diplomasya ng ating bansa," Duterte says. Akbayan party-list Rep. Perci Cendaña is one of the endorsers of the second impeachment complaint against Duterte filed by a group of civil society and religious leaders on Feb. 2. The Makabayan bloc supported the first impeachment complaint submitted by the progressive coalition Bagong Alyansang Makabayan.

Actor David Spade raising awareness that a bill was introduced in California to audit where the $20+ billion dollars in missing homeless money went, it passed but then Gavin Newsom VETOED the bill to block the investigation Yes, this really happened. He blocked bills for an audit MULTIPLE TIMES Bipartisan bill AB 2903 (unanimous passed 72-0 in the Assembly, 40-0 in the Senate) would’ve forced annual public reports on where the money went Newsom vetoed it. Gavin Newsom also vetoed similar bills AB 2570 and AB 2093 “The same broader problem with people paying taxes in California — The homeless, they lose $20 billion, but they want more money for it. That's why people get tired of paying taxes and going, what are you doing? Gavin Newsom just vetoed a bill asking for an audit of where the money for homeless goes. He said, not a chance. You're not gonna see that. That's the problem.”

2026 Fulton County Election Fraud Report finds THOUSANDS of FALSE BALLOTS added to the post-election hand count/audit, which lowered Biden's margin of victory and vote total by about 50,000 to 60,000 votes, indicating that Trump did indeed win Georgia in the 2020 election. This isn't even counting all of the other fraud found GA. As a result of the 36 errors, 6,691 fictitious ballots that do not exist were added to the "Total Ballots Cast" column. After removing the false ballots from the total, because they do not exist, Fulton County's corrected Total Ballots Cast for the hand count/audit is 521,341, or 7,436 ballots less than the certified Nov. 3rd total of 528,777. Of these, candidate Trump received 1,025 false votes that do not exist, while candidate Biden received 5,618 false votes that do not exist. Correcting for the errors from only the absentee ballots of one county, the hand count/audit results yield a margin of victory that is 4,593 votes less than the November 3rd results. 11,779 was the total margin of victory for the entire state. A review of only 3 percent of the ballots yielded errors that falsely inflated the margin of victory for the hand count/audit by one-third. Based on these errors alone, the margin of victory drops to 7,185. The 36 errors mysteriously added a sufficient number of ballots and votes to substantiate the November 3rd results, albeit falsely. Just as the hand count/audit was used as a metric to corroborate the November 3rd results, the errors call those results in to question. First, there was no investigation beyond that which was carried out by Mr. Rossi and the Governor's office as the Secretary of State's investigator did not perform an investigation. Second, the claim that the error were unintentional is refuted by the fact that 35 of the 36 inconsistencies benefited one candidate. Next, the failures were not the product of data entry errors. Lastly, the conclusion and excuse that the errors did not affect the outcome of the presidential contest is irrelevant and not responsive to the allegation, as the race for president extended past the Fulton County line, and so did the "errors" that were found. It gets even better... A total of eight 8 false batch entries are included in the results in which candidate Trump erroneously receives ZERO votes, and almost all are supported with a batch tally sheet. Errors with a batch tally sheet that don’t match the corresponding ballots are not the product of mistake or unintentional error. It is indisputable that the batch tally sheets identified by Mr. Rossi and Governor Kemp were intentionally fabricated to falsely pad the hand-count/audit results in line with the November 3rd results. Georgia law explicitly states that any superintendent or employee who intentionally destroys or alters tally papers, or permits them to be destroyed or altered, shall be guilty of a felony. Fulton County's chaotic, unaccountable curation and processing of cast ballots, cast BMD printout, and electronic records make a true risk-limiting audit impossible. It is unreasonable for voters to trust that their votes were counted at all, much less counted correctly. Voters have good reason to believe that some votes counted more than others, some votes were included twice or 3x in the totals. There is no way to know how many votes were omitted from the tabulation, absent access to the physical ballots and BMD printout and evidence that the chain of custody is intact. From the records produced so far, it Is impossible to determine whether malware, bugs, misconfiguration, or malfeasance disenfranchised voters or altered the election results. The fact that thousands of false ballots and votes were unveiled should have triggered a real investigation, not only of Fulton County's November 3rd election results, but those of the entire state. We can use the same mathematical basis as the Risk Limiting Audit by using Fulton County’s rate of error- and extrapolate. Approximately 148,000 absentee ballots were cast in Fulton County, and out of those, 6,691, 4.52%, were found to be false, or in error. A total of 1,311,061 absentee ballots were cast in the state of Georgia for the 2020 General Election. Using the same percentage, 4.52%, of false ballots/votes as that confirmed in Fulton County: 1,311,061 x .0452 = 59,259 false ballots/votes Using the same ratio of distribution of false ballots/votes as that confirmed in Fulton County: Candidate Biden: 83.9% of 59,259 = 49,718 false votes Candidate Trump: 15.3% of 59,259 = 9,066 false votes Therefore, using the Fulton County hand count/audit error rate, as established by the Governor's report on just the absentee ballots cast, the error rate is determinative, and it is possible that the wrong candidate did take office. Ms. McGowan's assertion that the hand count/audit errors did not affect the outcome of the race, is not supported by fact. Given the egregious manipulation in Fulton County, failing and/or refusing to check the hand count/audit results of the other 158 counties constitutes gross negligence, if not willful misconduct and fraud. On top of these findings, Fulton County election officials knew the hand-count/audit results were falsely inflated. There are a confirmed 6,691 fictitious votes that were added to the hand-count/audit results, but were NEVER corrected. An email found corresponds, which is located in this report, establishes the fact that Fulton County election officials knew of the errors at the time, even the same day that the Secretary of State released the results. (PAGE 171 in the video report above contains the email to view.) For some five 5+ years, the hand-count/audit results, known by Fulton County to be materially defective, have been used to falsely substantiate the official results. The same fraudulent results have also been used against those who rightfully questioned Georgia's election results. Lastly, for just this report and presentation, the hand-count tally sheets DO NOT MATCH results from advance voting polling locations. Poll tapes were compared for all tabulators at each polling location to the corresponding batch tally sheets as produced during the hand-count/audit. The fact that such differences between the hand counted audited ballot tallies and the official machine count tallies differs by this much signals that tabulation and auditing processes are flawed and strongly argue for intense objective expert examination and considerable mitigation efforts. It should be the case that such counts are consistent and exact. The fact that such audit discrepancies at a precinct level did not cause precertification investigations of the count variances is unacceptable, it essentially defeats the purpose of an audit if significant discrepancies are ignored and chalked up to human error. As they seem to have been at least in the case of the Fulton County audit. It is irrefutable that the hand count/audit results were indeed the result of intentional human acts, aka, FRAUD. Read full report for all details and visual evidence above in video report. The 2020 Election was stolen.

Is the truth too incriminating that the Vice President cannot simply answer questions? Entitlement and arrogance. I do not have high regards for the Vice President but her behavior and attitude during the congressional budget is on a different level. To say that she is disrespectful is an understatement. Rightfully so, Congressman Jay Khonghun moved to defer the budget of the Vice President for refusing to answer questions and disrespecting the committee. I agree with him when he said that we are a republic, we do not have a queen or king — the Vice President cannot do what she wants without checks and balances. I have been watching budget deliberations all my adult life. Both houses of the legislative always ask about the expenditures of the previous years in comparison with their proposed budget for the upcoming year. It is a common practice. Asking that question will give the congress the confidence to grant what is proposed. I want to highlight the interpellations of the Rep. Rodge Gutierrez, he explained in length why asking questions regarding the confidential funds is within the bounds of the discussion. Ironically, it was Congressman Ungab who told him that, the same representation who was in defense of the Vice President earlier today. Rep. Guiterrez also asked the Vice President regarding the COA findings including the lack of documentary evidence as a reason for the disallowance. Please watch the video in full length. I commend the House of Representatives for standing its ground for the disrespect and inappropriate behavior of the Vice President. Shukran!

Candace Owens discovered Turning Point was burning through much more money than they should’ve been and Charlie Kirk wanted to know where the money was going He sent out a memo to staff saying they would be doing an audit It was sent out September 2nd. 8 days before his murder “There arrived a moment when Charlie felt that the money was disappearing — the excuses that he was being given for the money disappearing wasn't adding up for Charlie” “The company was burning through cash too quickly and Charlie set about finding out why and how this was happening. So on September 2nd, which is, of course, just one week before he lost his life, Charlie surprised the company by announcing that he was putting together a DOGE Department — Really kind of a nice way of saying, We're gonna conduct an audit” “This was an internal memo that went out, signed off by Charlie on September 2nd”

🚨PBBM to the Senators: GET BACK TO WORK! This is what he said in this interview: 1. Get back to work. Get back to work because it's important. Ang dami nating kailangan gawin. We had a meeting sa UPLIFT Committee and marami tayong kailangan pagawa sa mga batas, mga batas na we were thinking na baka magka-supplemental budget, baka magka- amendahan namin ang mga ibang batas. Ito ay kailangan para makapagbigay tayo ng tulong sa taong bayan dahil nga sa oil crisis. Kung walang session, hindi ko nga maintindihan eh dahil ang pagkakaintindi ko is that ang rules — nag-congressman naman ako, nag-senador din naman ako. Ang rules diyan bago ka mag-cancel ng session, you have to inform the other house three days before you cancel a session and there has to be a very good reason for canceling a session. 2. I don't think na ihahatid mo ang isang senador para pumunta kung saan siya pupunta, hindi yata sapat na dahilan para i-cancel ang isang session. Isang session lang 'yun. Ngayon, kanselado na naman ang isang session. Hindi ko nga maintindihan kung papaano sila magtatrabaho kung ganito. Ang House of Representatives ngayon ay nagtataka kung papaano ba, nagbago na ba ‘yung rules, nagbago na ba 'yung mga patakaran natin kagaya ng mga nakaraan? It is a rule that is contained in the Constitution. 3. I'm afraid all these events that we have been witnessing has thrown the Senate and its leadership, the whole Senate, into disarray. It has discredited the leadership and it has stopped the essential business of legislation in government. The two other departments continue to work. The Executive continues to work. The Judiciary continues to work. Why does the Legislature decide to stop working? I don't understand that. I talked to my fellow senators at the time I was senator and we cannot figure out bakit magkakaganto, anong nangyari, paano tayo napunta rito. 4. The best description I can have is that the Legislature is now in disarray. But that is exactly the opposite from what we are trying to achieve. We are trying to achieve some form of stability so that people can get on with their lives, so that people can plan ahead for their future, so that people can count on the assistance of government during this time of an emergency. And we cannot do that if the Legislature decides to stay at home and have a vacation. That is anathema to everything that governance is about. 5. I never imagined in my entire life, in my entire political life, that such a thing could happen, especially to the august — it's no longer august now — to the august body of the upper house, the Senate of the Philippines. ###

Tenured Professor at Michigan State University Mark Skidmore on the $21 TRILLION missing from the DOD's balance sheet: "in a single year, the Army had acknowledged... it could not account for $6.2 trillion in transactions" "we found, from official government sources, $21 trillion in transactions for which there was no clear explanation" "[This] happened... back in 2016, '17, '18, [when] the total debt was about $21 trillion" "[the federal government] said they were going to address the challenge, and they said, We're going to conduct our first official external audit of the DOD ever" "[But] after it completed [the audit], [DOD] did not pass the audit and has not since. So it's been about eight years" This clip of Skidmore, a tenured Professor and Morris Chair in State and Local Government Finance and Policy, who also serves as a resident fellow with the MSU Extension Center for Local Government Finance and Policy, is taken from a discussion with Alexander Sachon (Alexander Sachon) posted to YouTube on January 10, 2026. ----------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- "That's when I ran into some of Catherine Austin Fitts' work. And I was just listening to an interview and she, she made a statement that in fiscal year 2015, the report came out in 2016, for the DOD, specifically the Army, in which, in a single year, the Army had acknowledged, through an OIG report, the Office of Inspector General, that it could not account for $6.2 trillion in transactions. "So having some background in looking at local government and finances and state level, it's like there's no way that these accounting discrepancies should be multiples of the entire budget. "If you had say a 500 billion dollar budget from the Army or a 200 billion dollar budget, it'd only be a small fraction. How could it be multiples? So I just, I, at first I thought she had made a mistake. It couldn't be, you know, $6.2 trillion, maybe $6.2 billion. And even then that would be a huge sum to lose track of. "And so I found the report myself and I just started looking at it. Just all kinds of strange examples of transactions that couldn't be accounted for. And so I just started asking questions, and then Catherine and I were in touch with one another and we said, let's try to systematically look over the years for all of these reports that exist and just sum them up and tally them and see what we can learn. "And you know, so they don't, they typically don't produce a report like this every year for the Army or every year for the Navy, etc. They only do them every once in a while.

[WATCH] We are in Cape Town today for the Special National Executive Committee Meeting of the African National Congress. The Special NEC meeting is convened specifically to focus on the post constitutional court judgement. The NEC through the Secretary-General and spokesperson released a statement where we stated that we note that judgement and will follow with the position of the ANC. We have discussed the matter as the Top 7 of the ANC and will table our report for the NEC to discuss. The President is not in attendance as he is the subject matter. This special NEC meeting is about briefing the NEC members and discussing the report which I will table as the SG.

#WATCH | On PM Modi's meeting with members of various MPs delegations, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor says,"...He was certainly very pleasant to all of us. He saw this as an opportunity to thank the delegations for their service, and he was very pleasant and spent more than an hour with all of us. He walked around the lawn to different tables, talking to different groups of people. We all chatted with him in an informal way. It wasn't a formal meeting at all. It was a good, lively, informal meeting. Even those of us who had given him our reports on the trip did not present those reports. We all shared many things with him, and with time, it will be apparent. A general proposition I noticed was that every country said it was a very good idea for Members of Parliament to visit them. We all suggested that we should make this a practice more often. The PM certainly seem to take that idea onboard."
