Trump ignored advisors, helped organise fake slates of electors, knowingly pushed lies to throw out poll results – indictment
Trump and his allies knowingly pushed those lies as part of a campaign to pressure state and federal officials to throw out the election results, prosecutors said, culminating in a mob of Trump supporters storming the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, in a failed bid to stop Congress from certifying Biden’s victory.
Creative Destruction: Uganda is in serious midlife crisis and old thinking must die to give way to rebirth
President Museveni has discouraged the universities from admitting large numbers of students and staff in the humanities and social science, completely unaware that these days the three broad areas of knowledge are interconnected in this era of new knowledge production. He is demanding innovations from his scientists and his new Ministry of Science and Technology.
Indictments helping former US President Trump solidify base in Republican party as nomination nears
Opinion polls show Republican support for Trump surging since the first of three indictments was issued in March. He is far and away the front-runner, leading second-place Ron DeSantis, Florida’s governor, by close to 30 percentage points.
Uganda: We’ve seen far more problem creation than solving in Museveni’s 37 years in power
Let me introduce the idea of TRIZ. You may or may not have heard of it. The term “creative destruction” was first defined by economist Joseph Schumpeter as mutation that incessantly revolutionises the structure from within, incessantly destroying the old one, incessantly creating a new one. Applied to human beings rather than economies, creative destruction is a way to incessantly stop behaviours and practices – that when stopped – make space for new things.
Ukraine warns Russia to ‘expect more drone attacks’ and ‘more war’ after it hit tower housing ministries
While the incidents have not caused casualties or major damage, they have provoked widespread unease and sit awkwardly with the Kremlin’s narrative that Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine is proceeding according to plan.
Ex-Nigerian president defuses political palpable tension in Kenya after persuading President Ruto and rival Raila to talk
Opposition leader Raila Odinga had called for a number of protests earlier this month, causing widespread disruption and in some cases violent confrontations with police in which more than two dozen people were killed and many others injured.
Kenyans listen to East Africans: Ruto and Raila have graduated into nuisance EAC should dump
President Ruto has been in office for barely a year. During this period, he has demonstrated strong signs of impudence that takes Kenya back to the eras of Jomo Kenyatta and Daneil arap Moi or Milton Obote and Idi Amin in Uganda. It may too soon to make any predictions, but there are indications that Kenya has brutal tyrant in the making and Raila Odinga is – through maandamano – egging on the tin-god-in-the-making to soar higher.
Trump tells Florida governor and ‘other clowns’ to stop ‘wasting dollars Republicans’ need to beat Biden
Trump, who was impeached twice while in office, said Saturday that, “The biggest complaint that I get is that the Republicans find out this information and then they do nothing about it.”
“Any Republican that doesn’t act on Democrat fraud should be kicked immediately out of primaries and get out — out!” he told the crowd to loud applause. “They have to play tough and … if they’re not willing to do it, we got a lot of good, tough Republicans around … and they’re going to get my endorsement every singe time.”
Niger coup, seventh in Sahel region, alarms West Africa economic bloc, which threatens sanctions
ECOWAS and the eight-member West African Economic and Monetary Union said that with immediate effect borders with Niger would be closed, commercial flights banned, financial transactions halted, national assets frozen and aid ended.
Beware! Ugandans now fear Museveni and Kagame are preparing the Great Lakes Region for Tutsi-Hima dynasty
FRONASA was, therefore, a deceptive coinage. The absolute majority of Ugandans never imagined that it referred to salvation of the Tutsi nation. They did not think about it critically. They were hoodwinked into thinking and believing that FRONASA was about salvation of Uganda. Like the nation of Israel that had become a refugee nation in Egypt, and needed God to organise its salvation through the hand of Moses, the Tutsi nation became a refugee nation in Uganda where many were in in dehumanising slavery. They needed Tibuhaburwa Museveni to salvage them. He performed, and has been performing, the task very effectively using his high military and political acumen, combined with capacity to use his tongue skilfully to convince the masses and the elite that he means well for Uganda.
