Ramaphosa Trolls Qatar’s Jet Gift to Trump With Savage Swipe: 'I Don’t Even Have a Plane to Give!'
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa stole the spotlight with a sharply delivered remark that left world leaders—and social media—buzzing.
In what appeared to be a cheeky jab at the recent headlines around Qatar gifting a private jet to Donald Trump, Ramaphosa quipped during a diplomatic exchange: “I don’t even have a plane to give!”
The unexpected comment, made in Trump's presence, was met with laughter and raised eyebrows at the high-level event.
While Qatar’s controversial gesture drew criticism and praise across political lines, Ramaphosa’s unfiltered response added a bold twist to the narrative.
A tense exchange erupted during a White House briefing as Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended Donald Trump's controversial video shown to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. NBC's Yamiche Alcindor challenged the clip’s accuracy, saying it falsely portrayed a genocide of white farmers. The video featured dozens of crosses, allegedly representing slain farmers—though Alcindor noted they honored a single couple. Leavitt pushed back, claiming white South Africans are being killed and persecuted due to race. The moment underscores rising tensions around Trump’s rhetoric on race and global narratives.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa firmly rejected Donald Trump’s “white genocide” claims, declaring, “There is no genocide in South Africa.” The rebuttal followed a tense White House meeting where Trump presented graphic material to support his allegations. Ramaphosa, visibly upset, requested the footage be stopped. Trump’s claims come after granting asylum to 59 white South Africans. Ramaphosa emphasized that violence in South Africa affects all races and warned against equating current issues with the apartheid-era struggle.

On May 21, 2025, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa met with U.S. President Donald Trump in the Oval Office, where the discussion took an unexpected turn. Trump confronted Ramaphosa with unverified footage alleging a "white genocide" in South Africa, a claim that has been widely debunked by South African officials and international observers. The incident was reminiscent of a previous confrontation between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, leading some to speculate that Ramaphosa had successfully navigated a potential diplomatic crisis.

South Africa Floods: At least 49 people are confirmed dead after catastrophic flooding hit South Africa’s Eastern Cape province. Among the victims are six high school students whose bus was swept away in a raging river. With homes submerged, roads destroyed, and more bodies being found, officials fear the toll will rise. Power outages affect hundreds of thousands, while disaster teams scramble to assist. Extreme weather—rain and snow—has devastated multiple provinces. Authorities have activated emergency services in both Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal to respond to one of the deadliest flood disasters in years.

Elon Musk's resignation from the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has ignited a firestorm on social media, with many questioning his American citizenship. Despite being a naturalized U.S. citizen since 2002, Musk's South African birth has led to renewed scrutiny over his national identity and role in U.S. governance. Musk announced his departure via his platform, X, after a 130-day tenure aimed at reducing federal spending. His exit followed public criticism of President Trump's "big beautiful bill," which Musk argued would exacerbate the federal deficit, undermining DOGE's objectives.

South African billionaire Johann Rupert publicly dismissed U.S. President Donald Trump's claims of a "white genocide" targeting white farmers in South Africa. Rupert stated the killings are not racially motivated but stem from deep-rooted poverty, rampant gang violence, and unchecked illegal immigration. He emphasized that all communities are affected, not just white farmers. Calling for technological and political intervention, Rupert urged Elon Musk and Trump to help address the crisis constructively, instead of fueling divisive narratives with misleading labels.

During a heated press conference, Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stunned reporters by calling a question from journalist Jasmine Wright “stupid.” Wright had asked whether Trump supports peaceful protests at his upcoming birthday military parade. Leavitt initially affirmed Trump’s support for the First Amendment but then turned combative, accusing Democrats of tolerating unrest. The press room moment, caught on camera, left Wright visibly shocked and sparked criticism of Leavitt’s tone. The administration also addressed ongoing anti-ICE protests, boasting about recent arrests as tensions rise nationwide.

During a fiery White House press briefing, Fox News correspondent Alexandria Hoff pressed Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with a provocative question: “Does the president see himself as a king?” Hoff was referencing the upcoming “No Kings Day” protest planned for Trump’s birthday military parade, aimed at criticizing ICE raids and authoritarian optics. Leavitt, unfazed, dismissed the premise as “absurd” and reaffirmed Trump’s respect for the Constitution. She also slammed Democrats for politicizing American symbols and defended the parade as a “celebration of freedom, not royalty.”

The United States cast the lone veto at the UN Security Council, crushing a widely supported resolution demanding an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. Citing Hamas’ refusal to disarm and vacate Gaza, Acting U.S. Ambassador to the UN Dorothy Shea declared that peace is impossible while a “terrorist group holds territory hostage.” The vote—14 to 1—left the U.S. isolated as humanitarian conditions in Gaza spiral into catastrophe. Within hours, Hamas fired back, condemning the U.S. stance and issuing a fiery statement targeting President Trump, accusing Washington of enabling "massacres and occupation."

In a dramatic diplomatic twist, Gulf powerhouses Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar reportedly urged President Trump to stand down from launching a military strike on Iran. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed (MBZ), and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani warned that such action could provoke devastating Iranian retaliation—especially against U.S. bases on Gulf soil. As fears of regional chaos mounted, the Gulf leaders pushed Trump toward diplomacy and a new nuclear deal instead of confrontation. Trump, meanwhile, told Israeli PM Netanyahu to hold back on unilateral action and hinted that a “very strong document” with Iran could be signed soon.

Public outrage is erupting in Israel over what protesters call “600 days of failure” by Prime Minister Netanyahu to bring back hostages held by Hamas since October 7, 2023. Over 3,000 people rallied in Tel Aviv, storming Likud HQ and demanding resignations. Clashes with police led to dozens of arrests. Demonstrators blasted the government’s hostage negotiation strategy, projecting a Qatari flag on Likud HQ to protest Hamas ties. Silent vigils and youth marches continue, as 57 hostages remain in captivity.
