Summary

Trump announced he will cut U.S. funding to South Africa, citing alleged land “confiscations” and human rights abuses under its new land expropriation law.

The law allows the government to acquire land without compensation in limited cases, such as abandoned properties.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa rejected Trump’s claims, stating the policy aligns with constitutional principles.

Trump’s remarks follow similar claims raised by South African-born billionaire Elon Musk.

    We’re just literally in the phase where Elon is operating Trump as a puppet via his distended asshole to achieve every pet project imaginable. I assume that Ketamine legalization is next, followed by changing the name of the country to the Xnited Xtates of Xmerica.
