Dear Kenyans,
What law establishes the Office if the First Lady? Under what authority does she draw public funds and to whom is she accountable for the expenditure? Does she get a public salary like her predecessor did? Again, under what law?
Oh... And does she still keep ivory in her office?

I'm starting to believe the far-right deliberately cultivates this impression of bumbling, laughable incompetence precisely so we don't take them seriously until it is too late. Remember how folks chuckled at Trump riding down an escalator? Not so funny now, is it?
Now everyone is laughing at Rudy's hair dye and at the stupidity of Trump's incompetent coup attempt instead of taking what they are doing seriously. Just as many assumed Trump was bound to fail in 2016 even as he kept forging ahead. They may just be repeating the same error now.
There is no inevitability to Trump's failure. Coups succeed unless they are stopped by those who understand that the folks with the bad hair and terrible slogans are deadly serious about taking, using and keeping power.

#BREAKING As vote counting in shambolic US presidential elections enters its tenth day, with states resorting to hand counts and urging staff to do sums on their fingers, there are signs the autocratic Donald Trump and President-elect, Joe Biden, may be preparing to share power.
#BREAKING Analysts say it is an unlikely coincidence that on the same day Kenyan President, Uhuru Kenyatta, says the US needs a "handshake" (or power-sharing agreement), lawmakers from Trump's far right Republican party also demand Biden gets classified intelligence briefings.
#BREAKING Sources say that having so far failed in his attempts to kick US dictator, Donald Trump, out of the barricaded presidential palace, President-elect Joe Biden has retreated to his multi-million dollar beach house to consider an offer to share power as a Prime Minister.

The Arsonists, we called ourselves. Image
If memory serves right, the name came from the 1990 university protests when Moi Uni students razed Mabs. I think it was at Coke 7s that Machine fans (led by @agohole, Steel Pulse) dubbed them the Arsonists.
I also believe that before that, they had been labelled "Blue Band" because of their yellow and blue striped uniforms which seemed to very quickly disappear. Image
