In this interview with BizNews, Neil de Beer, President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), speaks about the attempted assassination of former US President Donald Trump and the iconic photo of him pumping his fist with blood streaming down his face and the US flag fluttering behind him. “…this scenario, I can tell you now, is going to play off like an unbelievable movement of seismic proportionality, think, in the Trump favour.” Back in SA, he describes the leaked affidavit on corruption in VBS Bank as “a nuclear explosion” that could impact the futures of Economic Freedom Fighters Commander-in-Chief Julius Malema and his deputy Floyd Shivambu. He also reveals the plans of former President Jacob Zuma’s MK, saying: “And their next strike is to go for every municipality in this country in about 18 months when we start building up the 2026 municipal elections. Meanwhile, De Beer says their is a problem brewing in the Cabinet lekgotla because “if you look at the people sitting in that room, this is a festivity of people, not all of them, but people that have criminal intent, that have got an absolute diverse of ideology, and that are covering up.”
