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.

#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)

DONALD TRUMP IS A JOKE CANDIDATE - KARL ROVE.

Icheoku the GOP presidential wanna-bes' arena has suddenly turned into a circus, featuring another clown named "The Donald" - a political clown that is. Never in the recent history of American politics especially the Republican Party presidential selection/nomination process has personal ego been this boisterously, blatantly and vagrantly in display. A man who could easily pass for a business equivalent of a con-artist, now wants to be president of the United States of America? Wonders shall never end that made Mr. "Weird-Hair" to dream of also becoming a GOP presidential nominee in 2012. Icheoku says if Donald Trump is all that the right wing Tea Party and their greater Republican Party ally have for the 2012 presidential contest, may the election be fast-forwarded and brought forward now. Let the battle for the White House begin today! 

The irony of it all is that The Donald is hobnobbing with the extremist Tea Party wing of the Republican Party and his liberal antecedents considered, one wonders when The Donald developed enough conservative and right winger credentials to covet their presidential ticket? The 2008 Republican Party's loss to Democratic Party's President Barack Obama was blamed by the Rush Limbaugh wing of the Republican Party on Senator John McCain's RINO credentials? Their theory is that the then presidential candidate John McCain lost to Barack Obama because he is not conservative enough but merely republican by name only? His not being conservative and republican enough made it impossible for him to attract enough republican party faithfuls and their followers' votes to defeat Barack Obama. Icheoku wonders if such a party as is still nursing its loss in the 2008 presidential election will again make the same mistake of nominating a "questionable" conservative as their nominee going into the 2012 presidential election? If Arizona Senator John McCain is a RINO, then this New York City big fish and socialite extraordinaire must then be a "RINO squared" and Icheoku does not think that they will settle for such a gamble.

A twice divorced and three times married; three times corporate bankrupt and a pro-lifer wanting to be the Tea Party Republican Party's presidential nominee in 2012 is rather a wishful thinking as his chances are rather long fetched. Icheoku wonders what then would be left of these conservative right-wingers values should "The Donald", with such a liberalizing credentials, ever secures their presidential ticket. The good news however is that the word conservatism have to first change its meaning or be standing on its head before a man who have severally failed in both his family and business life would be allowed to fly the flag of conservatism into the 2012 Republican election battle.  Icheoku is however assuaged by the fact that The Donald does not stand a chance in hell among other more conservative credentialed prospective candidates, talkless of ever being allowed by the Republican Party establishment to fly its flag in the election; so Mr Loudmouth can trumpet his candidacy to high heavens but he is going no where. Icheoku says Donald Trump will not be the nominee of the Republican Party in 2012 and if, will not even win one state as he will be the final undertaker of the Republican Party's election victory funeral as we know it. 

To compound matters more, The Donald is flying a time worn 'birther-kite' that has long since been so discredited that even Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, herself a former birther, has since had her epiphany and realized that those birther-crowd are hovering on the lunatic fringe and refused to sign into law a birther bill that was recently sent to her desk. Icheoku says this is the cesspool where a presidential wanna-be is suddenly jumping in and wants to be taken serious? According to Governor Jan Brewer, "I never imagined being presented with a bill that could require candidates for president of the greatest and most powerful nation on earth to submit their 'early baptism or circumcision certificates' ... This is a bridge too far;" yet Mr. Trump is barreling along, headlong, on a course so discredited and so cliched that its apostles look more insane than insanity; and this is despite facts of consequences to his knowledge that the alleged is a falsity. 

A loan defaulter who had filed successive business bankruptcy and was once on the verge of personal bankruptcy  now wants to be president of the United States of America or is it the proverbial American Dream on steroids? A man who was barred by creditors from having any role in the day-to-day operations of his then bankrupt Trump Plaza Hotel because of debt issues, arising from poor management skills now wants to be president of the United States of America? The Donald who once owed a $900 million personal debt wants to be president of the United States of America, touting his business and financial acumen as his selling points? A man forced to pony up his Westside yards parcel of land because of money issues now wants to be president of the United States of America? A man who SEC in 1999, filed a financial reporting case against, for several "misleading statements in earnings" wants to be president of the United States of America? A man who was forced out of his CEO position in his Trump Hotels and Casino because of his mediocre-styled management wants to be president of the United States of America? A man who once avoided making payments on a loan from Deutsche Bank and who was referred to as "no stranger to overdue debt" by the creditor wants to be president of the United States of America? 

Anyway, Donald Trump's presidential run appears dead on arrival as he has already been rejected by the Republican Party establishment, with Club for Growth summarizing his candidacy thus - "Donald Trump for President? You've got to be joking." The architect himself, the oracle of Republican Party politics and the man who made a dumb, president; a highly skilled political operative who once told a Senator wanna-be witch to better remain in her coven, has opined on The Donald's plan as a huge joke. Bush's brain, Karl Rove, a man, love him or hate him, is a political genius, has given his summation on the planned presidential run of The Donald and it is not good news for The Donald. Karl Rove simply put, called The Donald a "joke candidate" and who is better to know a viable presidential candidate than the man who made GW, president against all odds?  When such an oracle speaks, those who have ears listen and fall in line; otherwise they get themselves roasted alive politically. Icheoku believes The Donald's bloated ego will not prevent him from seeing reason and listen to the candid word of advise from the man who knows what it takes to get someone elected president of the United States of America. Karl Rove said that The Donald does not have what it takes and Karl Rove is always right, especially with Republican Party politics. 

While Icheoku and the rest of America wait for this Mister Weird-Hair to finally make up his mind and pull that hare out of his stringy hair, we beg of him to stop his malicious, intentional and deliberate misleading of the American right wing Tea Party dumbs and dumbers; regurgitating a time-worn out fable that the president is a starry-eyed stranger not born in America but in some distant land somewhere in the Africa's outback. Icheoku says it is so disingenuous of The Donald to still be flying the kite of birther-theorists in 2011 three years after it first debut and was debunked, knowing same to be false and misleading, but only in his vain dream of becoming the Republican Party Tea Party nominee.  Icheoku says it is about time Mister "You are Fired", fires himself from contention by not entering the race or he will have the American people do the firing this time at the polls or even during the party's primaries. However, Icheoku strongly believes that Donald Trump is just teasing Americans with his presidential run and enjoying the attendant publicity, but will not run! But just in case he is so freaky and delusional enough to carry on and march on into the battle field, Icheoku advises the Republican Party to look for a more viable candidate but not the "joke candidate" to fly their elephant flag in the 2012 presidential election except they want to hand President Barack Obama a golden parachute to cake-walk and sail into his second term.
