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.

BILL O'REILLY TAKEN DOWN, AS HIS ACCUSERS WIN.

ICHEOKU says is not taking sides nor holding a brief for anyone, but in America, women will get you once they are determinedly honed in on project take you down. They will tell their stories movingly and most times people are moved into giving them the benefit of the doubt that they are indeed telling the truth; admitted that many a times, their version of the truth might either be exaggerated or heavily embellished or even an outright lie told to deceive and hoodwink. 

Many alpha males have fallen victim to this machination as women consider them threatening and then mark them for destruction and elimination; removal from their feminist society being an inconvenient obstacle on their way to total domination of the sphere. Whether former Fox News Bill O'Reilly is guilty of the charges leveled against him leading to his current tribulation and forced exit from Fox News, ICHEOKU does not know nor can affirmatively assert; but if precedents are any guide, possibly he was innocent of all the charges and merely a victim, who possibly made an innocent jocular banter complimenting a female, who took it wrongly as sexual harassment. Yes, it is America and in America women rule and dictate what is acceptable in their relationship with males; including what compliments are acceptable, if any. As far as the relationship between them and the males are concerned, they have to have both the beginning say as well as the final say, at the peril of the male who thinks otherwise or utters anything to the contrary. 

One of the accusations accusations against Bill O'Reilly is that he mouthed a "Hot Chocolate" at a black female employee at Fox News and you wonder what the harm or hurt here is, that a probably very good looking ebony female was complimented as being delightfully delicious or who does not like hot chocolate. Sometimes, even when you compliment females as being beautiful, they complain; you compliment their outfit as being nice and sexy, they complain; you compliment their figure as being exactly what nature ordered, they complain. Then conversely make the mistake of calling them fat or ugly or not enticing for any man to desire, and they will smack you and make a whole lot of trouble for you for not being sensitive and for being a pig and a dog and every other manner of thing not fit to co-habit this earth with them. It is a troubling situation indeed and sometimes even when they give you the common on and you respond, they turn around and accuse you of sexual harassment and of making the work place environment unbearable for them. 

ICHEOKU knows about this guy who his female colleague in the office was in the habit of flirting with and each time she is passing through his desk will stop to give this guy a shoulder rub. She will tell him complimentary things and sometimes even give him a peck. It happened continuously until this guy convinced himself that her overtures were a common on invitation to treat and he decided to express his interest. One day the guy went over to her desk and rubbed her shoulders and complimented her for her perfume and then left. A day later, their supervisor invited him to his office to say that the girl complained of his sexual advancement to her and that she considers same harassment and creating an unsettling work place environment. The guy was given an option to resign or face prosecution and that was how the guy lost his nearly six figure job. 

Mike Tyson was sent to prison because an aspiring model visited him in his hotel suite close to midnight in a see through lingerie; they had sex and she left only to later allege rape. Clarence Thomas nearly lost his Supreme Court judgeship to an accusation of sexual harassment of and by a female. Very recently, then candidate and now President Donald John Trump, was nearly forced out of his presidential campaign by a litany of accusations by females of various manners of unwanted sexual advances, some of them bothering on even rape. ICHEOKU says in the matter of Bill O'Reilly, he has lost his gig at Fox News due to similar allegations and accusations, but whether he did them or not, ICHEOKU does not know; but it sounds similar to what has become a common place occurrences in America where females sometimes make up stories just to take a man down. 

ICHEOKU says Bill O'Reilly made the mistake however by settling other previous similar allegations, which made people believe that he probably did it otherwise why settle. Bill O'Reilly's explanation that he did it to protect his family fell flat because if someone accuses a totally innocent person of some misconduct or crime, it behooves on the accused person to vehemently exonerate himself and not act in any manner that is suggestive of the possibility of the accusation being real. However, unlike so many other non rich and not so famous none white males, Bill O'Reilly secured the proverbial golden parachute of $25 million parting pay from Fox News. So in as much his face will no longer adorn the Network's evening program, he will still have a good life and possibly might follow in the path of Dan Rather and other former network faces in establishing an Internet based podcast. His audience from Fox News might follow him to wherever he decides to pitch his broadcast tent. 

ICHEOKU prays that men of America will learn their lesson from this that the women of America have become too sensitive and know how to shut their mouth around them. Just says nothing, see nothing and hear nothing about that female colleague of yours if you want to keep your job and not be accused of one harassment or the other. So long Bill but Fox News is the loser in this case as the Network seems to have lost its backbone and cannot stand firm and back their alpha male employees, faced with advertisers boycotts and threats of some crazy wild-eyed feminists females. Roger Ailes is gone; Bill O'Reilly is now also gone and you wonder who follows next in the attempt of some extremist anarchists to cut the Network to size by getting rid of the Network's retinue of alpha males who are not afraid to air their opinion and not given to political correctness. That the Network has steadily been beating other networks and stations and for several years now in viewership and ratings, also did not help matter in the drive by these invisible forces to equalize the playing field by silencing its ace anchors and now removing them one after the other. Sad.
