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.

HILARY CLINTON'S EMAILGATE, A 99 PROBLEM?

Icheoku queries, is having email problem one of the worst or least problem for a politician to worry about or is this particular problem, triggered by emailing, not your ordinary Joe or Jane problem? What made this particular email problem to assume the current air of its own that it is seemingly threatening an otherwise all-coast-clear clinching of the Democratic presidential candidate nomination ticket by Hillary Clinton? Why all the ruse and ruckus being raised and generated by whether or not Hillary Clinton used a personal email or government's email account during her term as Secretary of State of the United States? Should it matter? Does it matter and would it impact her chances assuming she steps forward as the next presidential candidate of the Democratic Party? 

Just when Icheoku thought (The) Donald Trump and his hair problem is an example of one really serious problem for anyone to have, here comes Hillary Clinton with some hellish email problem and you ask yourself which of the two problems would one rather indeed have? But with everything politics, which the current issue is of course, the real question is who wants Hillary Clinton stopped and  her momentum as the inevitable candidate deflated? Who is the grim-reaper that has generated this controversy now to try and stop her intended campaign for the presidency of the United States of America - the only woman to seriously so do, if she does? These are some questions Icheoku is looking forward for answers in the nearest future; but all these heat being generated over whether or not she used private emails or server is somewhat a needless sideshow. 

Luckily she has braved it by stepping forward and answering all questions any one had regarding the matter; and hopefully the matter would now rest, barring any discovery of any illegality or a cover-up of any crime. Icheoku says the unfortunate thing serving America is that the vocal decibels of those who want to get you or pull you down always outweigh those rooting for you; admitted that at the end of the day, most would come around to support you once you show that you are not miffed up or disturbed by the pile of dirt being thrown at you. Icheoku is hopeful, that America, having elected a black-man president, is finally ready to consider the female specie for president and Hillary Clinton is or would be that one. As with voting rights, it usually appears that black people are considered first before females and so will it be with the presidency in 2017 when Hillary will be sworn in as the first female president of the United States. Or who will not be happy to see Bill Clinton playing the First Lady's role in reverse. What a problem to have as Icheoku believes many people would, any day, trade such for some other stuff troubling their lives.
