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.

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

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.

FBI DIRECTOR JAMES COMY, FIRED !

ICHEOKU says in his usual characteristics trademark, the man who somewhat invented the words "You're Fired", has again read the riot act to another top government official and told the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, James Comes, "You're fired! With those words, the former director who was looking forward to spending out the next six years remainder of his ten year term as director of the FBI, has been thrown to the wolves of the jobless market, admitted he will land a good job somewhere else either consulting or working full time in security or law. 

Recall that the no nonsense President Donald John Trump, who leaves no one in doubt about who is in charge and runs the show, similarly fired his former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and former acting Attorney General Sandra Yates and now the director of the FBI.  While ICHEOKU sees nothing wrong in the president exercising his powers to hire and fire any federal government official, says what even took him this long as it would have come much sooner, what the former director did during the last election, interjecting himself in the campaign, considered. 

ICHEOKU says to those who are questioning why now, why not now or is there a specifically earmarked time to fire a disgruntled errant employee. Those snowflakes and cooled drinkers as well as their feminists agitators who are now shouting blue murder over the fire, if it may sooth their ego, should remember that former President Bill Clinton also similarly fired a sitting FBI director William Sessions in 1993. James Comes was fired without notice and with immediate effect while he was traveling to far away Los Angeles on the FBI's business and got the news just like every other American did, through the media. It shows that the divorce was not amicable otherwise they would have accorded th=him the respect of at least returning back to Washington or asked him to tender his resignation or even discussed it prior. 

Recall that Queen Hillary Clinton has accused the former director of being complicit in her loss of the last election and would see this as a good riddance. Also Harry Reid had previously called for the former FBI director to resign his office and Charles Schumer also had said that that he has lost confidence in the director and that he should resign. So, now that their wish has come to pass, what else do they or any of their minions want to achieve by talking about timing of the firing? An action president who is full of surprises has just granted them their heart's desires and they should be happy about the firing of the former director, instead of continuing with their whining. 

The job of any investigating arm of the government is to seek out evidence of a crime or charge and then table same to the Attorney General, whose prerogative it is to then make the final determination on whether or not the furnished evidence is sufficient to prosecute the crime. But no, the former director decided otherwise, arrogated to himself the right thereunto; assuming both the duty of an investigator as well as that of his boss, the Attorney General. How any investigator could arrive at a conclusion that evidence of a crime presented itself and by the same token went ahead to advise or rather recommend non prosecution of the said crime, baffled many observers during the last election cycle. 

How could any rational investigator have concluded as the former director did, concerning the investigation of Hillary Clinton but turned around to recommend that no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute the case, which evidence exists to so prosecute. The reason investigators gather evidence is for prosecutors to use it to establish a charge at trial. So how does any sane person explain that an investigation unearthed some evidence with which a charge could be prosecuted, yet recommended that no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute the charge, leading to the shouts of cover-up. 

ICHEOKU had written an article previously condemning the inserting of self by the former director into the matter of Hillary Clinton and somewhat shielded her from prosecution. By usurping the former Attorney General Loretta Lynch office, whose duty it is to make the final determination, by personally announcing a determination which was not his place to make, the former director indeed crossed the line. ICHEOKU says but unbeknownst to James Comey, any "unreasonable" prosecutor would have prosecuted and secured conviction of Hillary Clinton based on the unearthed evidence; except that James Comey preempted that opportunity and foreclosed the possibility from ever seeing the light of the day. It is also instructive that the Attorney General had recused herself from the investigation but added that whatever the FBI recommends, she would be bound by; and the FBI recommend non prosecution and Hillary Clinton walked away from what many saw as murder which no other lesser mortal would nor should have survived. 

ICHEOKU says making that judgment call on not prosecuting Hillary Clinton for her email-gate scandal was the lowest of the low points on the former FBI director's career and hopefully he has learnt his lesson.  Why he overstepped his boundaries and delivered an apparent slap on the face of the former Attorney General to whom he is supposed to report to, only James Comey knows. ICHEOKU says did James Comey deserve to be fired? Yes, admitted why not sooner. Hopefully with him now out of the way, may be the FBI can reopen the Hillary Clinton's emailgate investigation and let justice be finally served.
