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.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

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

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.

MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


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.

JEB CALLS GW TO THE RESCUE, WILL HIS DADDY BE NEXT?

‘He’ll be strong and steady:’ George W. Bush stumps for Jeb
Icheoku says first he sauntered on the terrain all by himself, alone, only to discover that playing in the big league requires more than just a family name. He found it too tough to handle and so scurried back home to call on mom who-knows-best, to come and bail him out. His mother unsuccessfully tried to market him to the American people who call New Hampshire home, as they rejected him and with thundering outcry screamed ENOUGH OF THE BUSHES. Not fazed and like every mama's boy who is exhibiting Frat-tendency of 'why not me' entitlement, he has once again ran back to his family for another round of bailout. This time, it is his big brother, a former president, whose presidency left so much sour taste in so many Americans mouth that he has dragged to the campaign trail. 

A presidency which many right thinking Americans wished never happened and at best, is better forgotten; but which in eyes of the mama's boy, was the best thing to happen to America and a very successful  presidency to brag about. Icheoku says if George Walker Bush's presidency was good enough for JEB, so much as to want and wish an encore, a repeat, a reincarnation of it, then his aspiring presidency is one American people would be better off without and therefore should not be embraced. American people will be better of with it aborted right now than to relive the presidency whose havoc the world is still reaping till today. GW, whose presidency did not and could not "MISSION ACCOMPLISH" anything, is who JEB is banking on now to come and MISSION ACCOMPLISH his presidential aspiration, by helping him secure the nomination of the Republican Party. 

Now GW is telling American people in South Carolina that Jeb Bush has the right judgment to be president and one wonders if George Bush is the most qualified person to make a call on anyone's judgment; not after his own judgment that marched troops into the quagmire that is the unnecessary egotistic Iraqi war. Anyway, American people know better and they know that George Bush's presidency left so much to be desired and they will have none of it, not anymore. What GW is trying to sell this time, his baby brother, as presidential candidate and possible president of America is not kosher. Icheoku says what JEB's more beloved mother Barbara could not do for him in New Hampshire, he wants his loathed brother George to do in South Carolina? 

But serving as a devil's advocate, who is JEB going to summon again, next time to his campaign trail, should South Carolinas also reject his brother's plea for mercy as New Hampshire rejected his mother's plea? May be it will be time to pull the kitchen sink by bringing his 94 year old wheel chair bound and dementia afflicted daddy Herbert to the campaign? But hey, desperate times calls for desperate measures; except that JEB is getting it all wrong thinking or believing that the problem is in his message and its delivery. Icheoku says nope, it is not a case of the message, rather it is the messenger.  

JEB's rejection is not because of what his message says or is not saying; no his rejection is a reaction of the American peoples fatigue with an impending political dynasty which they are not prepared to institutionalize. JEB's rejection is because of what he represents and American people are tired of same Bush same Bush all the time. It is the Bush/Clinton fatigue and so it does not matter if he resurrects Ronald Reagan to come and pound the trail for him, he will not be elected. But even if he   miraculously wins, will he be calling on his family to the rescue each time governing becomes  tough? If he cannot campaign and win his own election by himself, how can he then govern by himself? Anyway Donald Trump called it right that JEB is a LOW ENERGY mama's boy who cannot man-o-man-o tie his own shoe lace.  GO TRUMP, Trump all the way.
