Redi Tlhabi on Trump's Washington, the ANC, and the politics of power

In this episode of The Readiness Report, Redi Tlhabi unpacks two parallel crises of leadership and legitimacy. In South Africa, ANC leaders now admit the party has lost its way — but only after years of silence during corruption and state capture. In Washington, Donald Trump declares a crime emergency and floods the streets with troops, despite data showing crime is down. Redi connects the dots between hypocrisy, militarization, and the erosion of democracy at home and abroad.
