GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

HEALTHCARE REFORM, GOOD FOR MASSACHUSETTS NOT GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY - ROMNEY.

Icheoku says the somersaulting Mitt Romney, the Mormon bishop from liberal Massachusetts, has once again done himself in on the health-care question settled recently by the Supreme court in favor of President Obama. According to the ever-evolving Mitt, the reform including a mandate of a penalty was good for Massachusetts but would not be good for the rest of the country; which makes Icheoku ask, since when has something that is good for the goose not similarly good for the gander? Americans need answers from Mitt Romney to this his Massachusetts and the rest of us posturing on the health-care reform law. .

Why was health-care reform and its associated mandate good for the people of liberal wide-eyed Massachusetts but would not be good for the rest of us in the country? Why is pre-existing condition being no longer a barrier to getting insurance not good for the country? Why is not being dropped because of contracting a disease not good for the country? Why is youngsters staying on their parent;s insurance until they turn twenty-six not good for the country? Why is the ability of the millions of the uninsured Americans now being able to be insured not good for the country? Could somebody please tell Mitt Romney that Icheoku as well as millions of Americans want a direct answer to these questions? Could Mitt Romney please explain this "we" and "them" appropriate benefit between Massachusetts and the other 49?

Is Mr. Flip-flop telling us that the people of Massachusetts are better or deserves better than the rest of us since he is not implying that they are dumbos who did not know any better and therefore were taken for suckers when he passed a similar health care reform law with mandate as governor of Massachusetts? Icheoku says call the penalty tax or whatever sounds good for campaign purposes, at least taxation does not leave one an option but this health-care mandate leaves and it is called buying your own insurance before the insured loss happens; wherein absent your insurance you will then be required to pay a penalty for not protecting your rear behind. America this man must not be allowed to get away with his if it fits my template attitude and approach to problem solving when it suits his convenient? There is no chance in hell for Monday night quarterbacking with the presidency of America and this should drive our narrative this election season. Mr Mitt Romney has never consistently maintained a position on anything or issue throughout this electioneering circle or his political life and Icheoku wonders why America is even listening to his gobbledygook of emptiness on the trail.
