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.

'The best way to keep peace is to be ready to destroy evil. If you Pearl Harbor me, I Nagasaki you.' - Ted Nugent.

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.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


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.

SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM AND KARL ROVE, SIMPLY PATHETIC.

Icheoku says at what time did Lindsey Graham-nesty figure out that the man he, a short few weeks ago, debated on a nationally televised Republican Party's debate on who will be a better presidential candidate for the party,  is not or rather is no longer a member of the Republican Party? When did Donald Trump "DISAVOW" his membership of the Republican Party or was it privately done in the inner recesses of the chambers of the Senator from South Carolina? A man who flunked and flamed out his presidential run and was forced to beat a quick retreat, in his attempt to equal his friend, John McCain's record, as an also ran presidential candidate, is now saying what? A second tier and second rate presidential candidate wanna be, who could not even qualify, due to a very low single digit approval ratings, to make the cutoff mark to participate in the main presidential debates is now saying what? 

Needless to add that his endorsement of Jeb Bush did not yield JEB even a second place in his native South Carolina. Icheoku is bemused and wondering what weight does this guy really think he has? Who is Lindsey Graham outside his small state of South Carolina to say who is or who is not a Republican when he is not Reince Priebus, the chair of the Republican party? Which register of the Republican Party exists, where every Republican is listed as members? 

A man who Senator Graham was jostling a few short weeks ago on who will be a better presidential candidate for the Republican party, suddenly is no longer a member of the Republican Party? Icheoku asks Lindsey Graham on what platform did he then participate in the said debate? Why did Senator Graham not observe then or even walked out in protest that a stranger from Namibia was on stage debating with him and fighting to foist the flag of the Republican Party's presidential run this fall? What changed except that pitiful envy and jealousy is consuming the senator that what he could not do, an outsider is doing it successfully and having fun about it.

A man who was made to sign an undertaking not to run a third party candidate against the eventual nominee of the Republican Party in protest, is now no longer a member of the Republican Party? A man who has given so much money and resources to past Republican Party presidential candidates including 2008 John McCain and 2012 Mitt Romney; and who stood side by side and endorsed Mitt Romney for the election and who Mitt Romney acknowledged as a dear friend and bona fide Republican, is now adjudged no longer bona fides of the Republican Party. Icheoku says wonders shall never end as this goes to show how far entrenched and established interests could go to fight for their hold unto power and its accouterments. 

Now to the other Michelin Tire man Karl Rove, who is yet to recover from the drubbing of election 2012, which saw him stupefied and still assuring donors that Mitt Romney won the election until Obama was sworn in for the second term. A man who destroyed every credit and credibility he garnered as the man who made George W Bush president, with his mediocre performance in that election 2008 which was Romney's to lose and he lost it; especially after squandering over $400 million special interest's money to stop Obama which task he failed woefully. 

Icheoku thought Karl Rove has finally retired faraway to Wyoming from partisan politics until this Trump Movement flushed him back into the scene. So query, what standing does Karl Rove, man who could not help beat Obama in 2012 with $400 million and despite the beatable environment then, still have to open his mouth to tell Americans who to choose as president as well as the Republican Party's presidential candidate nominee. Icheoku condemns Karl Rove's attempt at meddling with the current process as both misguided and impetuous. He wasted donor's money in 2012 and Donald Trump called him out on it and now he wants his pound of flesh? 

Icheoku says not this time Karl and other established politicians as millions of Americans, including Pagans, Gentiles, Jews, Christians, born again and born before, educated and none educated, tall and short, fat and slim, ugly and beautiful, Mexicans, blacks, women, Chinese, Japanese, gays and Lesbians as well as people who generally love differently, and every American who desires better for America, are united in the current effort to send The Donald to Washington. Politics as usual has been defeated and Americans in unison want an outsider who does not accept money from any special interest to go to Washington and shake things up. So these hating and hateful established Republicans, who feel threatened that an outsider is coming uninvited, not only to the dinner table but also to man the kitchen and bar, should know that America's democracy is peoples democracy and their majority will trounce whatever conspiracy is going on among the family of the entrenched political jobbers.
