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!

PASS THE TORCH AND DO IT NOW!

PASS THE TORCH AND DO IT NOW!

ICHEOKU says to the two great grandfathers, Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders, they should please know that their moment in the sun has since passed. They should allow the next generation of leaders to emerge and lead the Democratic Party. Pouring an old wine in a new skin never works and will not work; enough of the clinging to power and disruption of much needed transfer of power to the next generation. They must please withdraw their participation in the Democratic Party's presidential nomination process, because it is not reserved for a Council of Elders. They should allow the young to grow, by passing the torch now.

JOE BIDEN: CHOOSING HIM, A BIG MISTAKE.

ICHEOKU says the Democratic Party will be daft and strategically unthinking to so do. But unfortunately, it is steadily looking like Joe Biden will be the it, the candidate of inevitability. It is apparently the same old script which the party used in 2016 when they foist Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton on the party that they have dusted up once again and trying to use it to midwife Joe Biden's candidacy. This is a classical definition of insanity, repeatedly doing the same thing while expecting a different outcome. If it did not work then with Hillary Clinton in 2016, why does the party think that it will work now with Joe Biden. 

A Joe Biden who could not attract up to 5,000 people to his presidential campaign launch event in his own native home Scranton, is who the Democrats now want Americans to believe will defeat a president who regularly attracts close to 25,000 people to his campaign events. It is definitely an interesting perspective, except that it will require the suspension of disbelief to accept the illogicality of their argument that the multitude of people who throng President Donald John Trump's political events, will suddenly make a somersault and switch sides, and vote differently come Election Day November 3rd, 2020. 

The Democrats are needlessly attaching too much importance to name recognition, practically the sole reason they think that Joe Biden is the most formidable candidate to take on President Donald John Trump in 2020. But they selectively forgot that Hillary Clinton had a more recognizable name than Joe Biden; ditto Jeb Bush, but both were roundly defeated by the president. If the two well recognized individuals were demolished by the president, despite their storied names, it shows that name recognition is not everything. Therefore, what chance does a weak and fledgling old Joe Biden stand against the president in 2020, his recognized name notwithstanding. 

ICHEOKU says at best minimal; hence name recognition should not be the controlling authority in choosing a presidential candidate for the Democratic Party in 2020. The Democrats should go for a more youthful, more vibrant, more vivacious and more feisty individual who could command the attention of the American people and who could in actuality give the president a run for his money. Joe Biden does not possess any of the listed items more than the rest of the other 19 candidates; admitted none of them will defeat the president in 2020. None of the 20 candidates has what it will take to defeat the president; the president looms larger than life and towers far above all of the competitors. 

But Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was right that going backwards is not an option; and except the Democratic Party nominates a futuristic change candidate, with a forward-looking agenda, the party will again lose the next election in 2020 to President Donald John Trump. The reason the government is broken and highly dysfunctional is that those who have been running the government for far too long, such as Joe Biden, who was first elected to Washington DC in 1972, a preeminent political dinosaur of Washington DC, are still clinging to power. They broke the government, yet they have refused to step aside, move away to make way, for people with can do spirit to help fix the government. 

Just ask yourself what does Joe Biden still need by seeking yet another Washington DC government job, after having Washington DC government job for nearly half a century. The only possible explanation is that it is a power drunk move, by an establishment elite, who feels like fish out of water without being in power. Then a follow up question, what exactly is Joe Biden planning to do now, which the past 47 years did not provide, enable, yield or afford him the opportunity to do. The answer is nothing really. 

ICHEOKU says what is even so uplifting and worth clamoring for in old Joe Biden, which will make him attractive to the electorates, that the Democratic Party thinks would make them want to vote to elect him their president. What different message, short of "I hate Trump's guts", will Joe Biden bring in 2020 that will make the American people, who previously rejected the Obama/Biden policies in 2016, when they voted to elect President Donald John Trump president, now want to gravitate back to him. What has changed between 2016 and 2020 for the Democrats to now think that Joe Biden is the it, the acceptable darling of the American voting public. 

ICHEOKU says except job performance of an incumbent president is no longer a factor and there will be no presidential campaigns and debates, the Democrats seemingly are not feeling the pulse of the American people correctly. Otherwise, the indicators and barometers are there that President Donald John Trump will be reelected on November 3rd, 2020. As one poled individual once said, "Joe Biden is Hillary Clinton 2.0 and nominating him will be the worst mistake the Democratic Party will ever make going into the presidential election 2020." ICHEOKU completely agrees and urges the Democratic Party to save themselves another teary eyes on November 3rd, 2020 by being proactive now. Say no to Joe Biden. Tell Joe Biden to #PassTheTorch.

THE BALTIMORE TWEET: NOT RACIST.

ICHEOKU says does not think that the president's tweet concerning the Congressman from Baltimore, Elijah Cummings, is racist; nor did he tweet it with racism on his mind. It is only that people have mastered the art of attacking the messenger, rather than addressing the message in order to parry away issues which they would rather not discuss nor engage in. A very distractive, change the subject, ploy and approach to issues; a readily available clever tool in the hands of politicians, who are often times averse to being called out and would do whatever it takes to change the subject. The issue should have been whether the president's tweet was true that the Congressman's district is in a parlous condition and not that the president said it, needless to turn it into a racial issue. 

Probably, Baltimoreans, especially their politicians, were mad that the president brought a global attention to the squalid state of affairs in their city and publicly shamed them. They would rather nobody knew the actual state of affairs in their city and it being made so public by President Donald John Trump put them in a bad light, as another failed liberal city of America. Their angst was not because what the president tweeted was not true; otherwise they have since invited the media to walk them through the neighborhoods. It was not also because the president falsely accused Baltimorean Congressman Elijah Cummings; either. The appalling state of Baltimore has been previously highlighted by Bernie Sanders, Baltimore Sun newspapers as well as the New York Times. The president merely added his voice to it and because his voice has a global reach and everybody has now come to know about it, they are crying blue murder.  

A corrigible city government and its politicians would have taken a lesson from the president's tweet and try and fix their broken city; and even asked the president to help them with money to fix their city. This is where the Congressman would have come in and use his Congressional position to plead with the president for federal dollars to help lift his Congressional district. But no, they hate the president; hence everything that comes from the president, even if otherwise ordinarily beneficial, must be castigated and put in a dump and branded racist. Then you ask yourself what is racist in telling a Congressman to first take care of his district before pretending that illegal immigrants at the Southern border are not being treated well enough or has it tougher than impoverished American citizens who live in his district. 

Afterall, it was the Congressman who claimed that no human beings should be allowed to live like those illegal immigrants, while hundreds of thousands of poor African Americans and other down on their luck Americans live in far worse conditions than those illegal immigrants; begging the question, why does the Congressman's' charity not begin from home. But he is a politician and politicians are all about posturing and he wanted his moment in the sun by badgering the Border patrol head at his committee's hearing. Americans were shocked to see the Congressman's tone of admonishment, particularly when he said that people don't have to live that way, whereas millions of Americans, are living worse than that way, including in his own Baltimore Congressional district. as well. 

A point which nobody needs to go searching too far in order to see, such that ICHEOKU considers it scandalous that America will be parading its generosity abroad when millions of its own citizens are living in worse conditions than those foreigners which their country is often helping abroad. All it takes is a travel through the inner cities of America, the Midwest, the Appalachian, as well as the gutted Ross belt and some shocking levels of poverty will be staring one on the face. Yet, these forgotten Americans are killing themselves daily due to despondency, overdosing on drugs, committing suicides with guns and whatever they can find to end their lives, but their government is in Washington DC pretending that all is well; and that they have money to be helping other countries while their own citizens are in such a perilous state; and with great incredulity as to what happened to their own American dream, which has since turned into a nightmare. 

ICHEOKU says may be one of the ways to control immigration is for America to start showing its poor people and their impoverished neighborhoods to the world, as it will surely deter immigrants craving a shot at the American dream. The logic will be so easily discernible - if American citizens are this impoverished, why bother coming over. But no, a country of camera, lights and action, would like to showcase only the good, while intentionally forgetting the bad and the ugly. This is incentivizing the out of control immigration, which thus makes America's inner city citizens to be out competed  by more hungry immigrants who readily take the jobs which they would have been doing and for far too less a wage, thus compounding an already bad situation. 

But the president must not be allowed to air it and when he does, a deflection of racism is thrown into the mix just to keep the lid over the situation and you wonder whether this situation will ever be resolved or solved. It is a vicious circle and there is apparently a conspiracy of silence around it, the reason all these people are now hollering racism because they do not want the world to know what the real situation is actually in America. 

ICHEOKU says if Congressman Elijah Cummings must be angry, he should first be angry at the state of affairs of impoverished American citizens, particularly those who call his district home and thereafter, he can look at those illegal immigrants at the Southern border. But he got the whole situation wrong when he forsook his primary constituents who are living in squalor and became an advocate for illegal immigrants. This is the issue that needs to be discussed and not whether a presidential tweet was racist because it was not. The president only drew attention to the Congressman's misplaced priority and many in his congressional district agree with the president that the Congressman got it all mixed up, as they too could use some help from the government in order to improve their living conditions. Such a calling out is not racism by any definition, no matter how widened.

MUELLER'S TESTIMONY SHOCKER: MULLER'S REPORT WASN'T HIS.

ICHEOKU says it is abundantly evident from his demeanor, fidgetiness, tutored and stammered labored responses and his overall askance look that Robert Mueller did not read nor wrote the report which goes by his name The Mueller''s Report. Such inference is easily deductible by closely watching his mannerisms and listening to his answers to the questions, particularly as it appertains to the content of his report during his testimony before the United States Congress Judiciary Committee. 

ICHEOKU is emphatic that Robert Mueller did not read the report prior to his appearance at the hearing and couldn't have otherwise written it. He literally did not have a clue about the content of the Mueller Report and frequently asked for a reference page and paragraph, from where he reads to know or "refresh" his recollections before either collaborating it or punting the question. Anyone whose original work is being questioned, would readily recall the vital points and issues which he raised once minded; but not Robert Mueller, thus validating the claim in some quarters that some Democratic Party interest just used him to pursue an objective, which unfortunately bombed. 

Robert Mueller was eagerly answering Democratic Party members' questions or attempting to respond to hem; unlike the Republicans, whose insightful questions he parried off  and did not answer them. Some questions particularly captured ICHEOKU's attention, including how he contradicted himself on Collusion and Conspiracy being synonyms in his report, only to deny it during the hearing. He also failed to answer why an investigation into an alleged Russian meddling in our election only investigated one campaign but not the other. If indeed Mueller was truly determined to conclusively and thoroughly get to the bottom of the Russian meddling in our election in 2016, why did he not also investigate the Hillary Clinton's campaign to see if Russians also intruded in it. Afterall the stated objective of the Mueller Team was to find out if Russia meddled in our election; as they could have easily found an entry door through the Clinton's campaign. But Mueller refused to state why her campaign was not investigated, in order to find out if the Russia's meddling was as in-fact as pervasive as he concluded is still debatable.

Also by stating that he could not "exonerate" the president, Mueller transferred the onus and burden of proving his innocence on the president, which made a mockery of America's criminal law jurisprudence of presumption of innocent until proved guilty. It was not the place of the prosecutor, Robert Mueller, to determine whether or not the president is innocent or guilty of a charge. His job was to find and collect evidence of the president's culpability, which could be used at trial to prove beyond reasonable doubt the president's guilt. But the final decision of guilt still rests with the adjudicator or presiding authority but definitely not the prosecutor. Even such arbiter is still precluded from determining the president's innocence or lack of it; only whether he is guilty of the charge or not. So by Robert Mueller going out of his way to impugn the president with his statement that he could not "exonerate" the president, he embarked on a prosecutorial frolic, which is not known to criminal law and therefore a gross illegality and overreach.

Robert Mueller equally refused to answer why the letter which he wrote against the finding of the Attorney General on his report was deliberately leaked to the media, when his nearly two year long investigation never leaked. Robert Mueller also refused to answer why he charged everybody who "lied" to his investigating team and who are associated with the president, but refused to say why he did not indict those who lied to him, but  who are anti Trump and on the other side. Needless to add that his investigating team were largely composed of anti Trump lawyers and Hillary Clinton's sympathizers. 

Robert Mueller also reached a conclusion on Collusion, part of his report; but failed to similarly also reach a conclusion on the Obstruction, part two of his report; despite his mandate to reach a decision either way, regardless of what the practice of the Department of Justice was. A fair prosecutor would have concluded either that there was no evidence that the president was guilty of Obstruction or that there was, for which the president would have been indicted but for the DOJ guideline. But Robert Mueller was being clever by half in not answering the question as well. 

ICHEOKU says all these established clear evidence of bias or appearance of it on the part of Robert Mueller against the president, which tainted the report he finally came out with. But to Robert Mueller, it does not matter because the president is "below" the law, hence the principles of fair trial did not avail him, hence they were denied to him. As far as Robert Mueller was concerned, the president was expected to first establish his innocence before Mueller could "exonerate" him. What a farcical stranger to criminal prosecution and Mueller was fully aware of it, but did it anyway. ICHEOKU says with this Mueller Report and its attendant testimony, Robert Mueller may have inadvertently written the final chapter of his book of life, because long after he is gone, he will be remembered largely for this infamous Mueller Report. A pitiful way to sign off on his storied legacy. SAD.

10 DOWNING STREET: BORIS JOHNSON MOVES IN.

ICHEOKU says British Trump is now the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; Boris Johnson, that is. He resoundingly won the contest for the PM with nearly 100,000 votes out of the 160,000 Conservative party members who voted to elect a new Prime Minister. He replaces the disgraced and very incompetent Theresa May, who was forced to resign the office because of her inability to midwife Brexit to fruition. 

The bombastic Bojo, as he is fondly known, is a quick rise to the British highest political office, the Prime Minister. A journalist turned politician he first ran for elective office in 2001 as a member of Parliament and won as a representative for Henley. He was also once the vice chairman for the Conservative Party, a Shadow Minister for Arts, a Shadow Minister for Education, Mayor of London, Member of Parliament representing Uxbridge and South Ruislip, Foreign Secretary and now the British Prime Minister. A meteoric ascendancy indeed. 

Boris Johnson will certainly be a different kind of Prime Minister and exactly what a Britain that is somewhat lost in political correctness, which saw a Pakistani Muslim become the Mayor of London, and many British cities already lost to Islamism, needs at this trying times. Bojo does not suffer fools lightly and once derided Burkha-wearing Muslim women as resembling bank robbers and post boxes. He also once described Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton's as a sadistic nurse in a mental hospital. A Brexit campaigner in chief who has vowed to actualize the exit of Britain from the European Union by the October 2019 deadline. Hopefully he will follow through with all the optimistic and high spirited statements, especially his promised ending of the diet of misery which British people have been forced to take and put spring back in the steps of every Brit. 

ICHEOKU says so far, he is talking the good talk and hopefully he will also walk the good walk by repositioning Britain at the pedestal where it was loomed high. He must also remember to first recover the detonator from Brussel before unwrapping the suicide vest from Britain, just to avoid any unintended consequences by an aggrieved Europe as a scorned partner is always very dangerous. Anyway, ICHEOKU wishes Boris Johnson a successful term in office and hopefully he will nominate Nigel Farage as the new British ambassador to the United States of America and that way premaritally seal his friendship with President Donald John Trump, a fan of both men.  Congratulations Bojo.

BRITAIN HAS A NEW PRIME MINISTER: HURRAY.

ICHEOKU says congratulations to Boris Johnson, the British Trump. 


THE SQUAD: HOW COULD THEY LOVE AMERICA?

ICHEOKU says when you love something, you are proud of it and you are bound to do right for and by it; as well as protect it from harm, damage or injury. Such expected disposition also includes not allowing any person to insult, disparage, ridicule or otherwise belittle the thing in any other way. You also do not talk it down, but continuously remain its cheerleader in chief. 

As a result, you somewhat morph into its marketing officer, as any good salesperson would, for any good product which he or she is trying to move. A mother's love for a child is one such good example of such abiding and unconditional love, which a person should have for a child, thing or country. For instance, when you have a house or is inside a house which provides you shelter from the elements, you don't tear it down; rather, you defend and protect it from any and every antagonistic foreign and external foe trying to take the roof out and render you homeless. This is the crux of the current embroilment between real American people and those four nutcase Congresswomen, who have formed themselves into a gang of four, aka The Squad. They do not love America and at best, not deeply enough; and not in such a way as beneficiaries of the American largess such as them, would or are expected to love a country which has given them so much. 

In which other country would their stories of coming from nothing to becoming something have been realized within such a short period of time in their lives. Many marvelous dreams come through, especially for Alexandria Ocasio Cortez who rocketed from a waitressing in a drinking bar to a United States of American Congresswoman from New York. Then add Omar who was a rescue from a Somalian refuge camp less than two decades ago and is now also a United States Congresswoman from Minnesota. The incredible but true story is about the same for the other two Congresswomen from Michigan and Massachusetts who round up the membership of the The Squad, Presley and Thliab. Their story of ONLY IN AMERICA, where dreams frequently come through for those who dare to aspire. 

ICHEOKU says what then is it exactly, that still riles these four women and cause them to hate America this much, despite having benefited so much from what America has to offer. Why do they hate America so much that at every opportunity, they trash it in such a way that you begin to wonder if America is really this horrible, why are they still there and not take a refuge somewhere else. Where is their love of country and gratitude to America which made them who they are today; which still protects, provides and defends them. An America which translated their dreams into realities of epochal achievements, which would have still remained merely a fairly tale dream in so many other countries, but a reality in America. But they chose to remain angry ingrates who pine away in sorrowful condemnation of the country which gave them its all.

Instead of disparaging America, these gals should be singing praises of America for allowing them realize their own American dreams; admitted, millions of others are still chasing their own dreams, while many millions of others have hopelessly watched as their dreams have since turned into unmitigated nightmares. That is what love of country is all about, showing gratitude for the privilege of being a citizen and not disparaging it at any slightest given opportunity. 

ICHEOKU says this is true, notwithstanding the famed right to free speech, freedom of expression ingrained in a democracy. Talking down of one's  country is definitely not the only way to truly exercise one's right to freely speak. That is what enemies and detractors do, but not patriotic citizens who love their country dearly. Patriots fight and defend the honor of their country, but they do not help detractors tear their country down or in any other way, demean it. If these four renegade women spend their time talking ill of their country and literary pulling it down, what then do they expect detractors of America to do or is it a case of unwittingly doing the job for them? 

Therefore, when one continuously belittles, insults and talk down something, such as one's own country, it becomes somewhat difficult, if not impossible, to reconcile such an unflattering conduct with love of country. Such crazy "love" is anathema to the country's well-being, as with such love, the country does not need any other enemy, because the enemy within is enough threat already. 

How could these women be calling for a borderless America; an American without security officials; an America where everything is free without saying how they are going to be paid for ; an America where babies are cavalierly aborted; an America where all the structures that hold it together are torn apart; an America which is completely gutted and remade in their own fantastically maniacal image; an American without an American flag; an America where the entire world's population are emptied into; an America which is a different America as we currently know it and in fact an America which ceases to be America. Yet they pretend to love America and you wonder with all these their desire come through, would there still exist America in the true sense of it. 

Something is wrong with the picture and only a person who hates America would advocate for such radical, complete and total remake of America; because once done, it will no longer be America that will remain, but a caricature of America, a ghost of the America that once was. 

These four knuckleheads who call themselves "The Squad" are guilty of lack of love for America. They have no real and true love for America and possesses shallow lip-service love at best. They do not have such love for country as real patriots do, that makes them pay the ultimate sacrifice for their country if need be. If America were a chattel or commodity and the opportunity avails itself for these women, they would readily auction America off for pittance without batting an eyelid. These women are mad and angry; and their deep seated anger at everything America stands for readily shows and boils out each time they open their anti America acerbic mouths. 

ICHEOKU says will reecho President Donald John Trump's words that these women should freely look elsewhere to anchor their boats of citizenship if they cannot stand America anymore. Good enough, America is still one of the countries that does not bar its citizens from leaving the country whenever they so desire. Rather, it is the deluge of people from other countries wanting to call America home who are flooding America, including those jumping in from the Southern border, that is the problem. How to effectively, sensibly control and regulate their inflow is the issue and not that anybody is stopping those who wants to leave. What a squad of undignified, rascally, feminists anarchists, who are seeking their fifteen minute of fame and in the process trying to destroy America and take it down. Thankfully enough, President Donald John Trump says not under his watch and is fighting back and is winning. Kudos to the MAGA-Nation. #SAYNOTOTHESQUAD. #MAGA/KAG2020.

KAMALA HARRIS IS NOT BARACK OBAMA, WILL NOT WIN.

ICHEOKU says there is a saying in some communities that a monkey see and a monkey do. Translated, imitating a success story is not always a form of flattery, as it sometimes leads to unintended consequences, failure. People who have mastered things make doing them appear easy. So it is not always sufficient by itself to try to replicate what they did; but to first try to understand how they did it. Thereafter, you can then travel through the same pathway which they followed and hope for the best, to achieve the same result. 

President Barack Obama understood this very well, the reason he charmed his way into the minds and hearts of the American people, who rewarded him with 8 years in the White House. First, he understood very well that there is no way he could win the White House without the approval and support of the white majority Americans and he went to work to win them over. He put his charm offensive on them and won their hearts. He had the disarming smile, cool mien, silky smooth mannerism, innocent attentiveness, great oratory prowess and above all, a serpentine cunning. His deftness was such that, any time there was any raising of eyebrow about his past possible anti white people sentiments, he rushed out to quell it. He vehemently denied and denounced it and went to whatever length possible to convincingly and satisfactorily explain away whatever the allegation. 

The former president was masterful in deploying all his qualities into wooing the white majority Americans and assured them that their fate under his presidency was safe. He did not scare them away but made them feel comfortable with his presidency. Even when any past incident which suggested that he was anti white people surfaced, he rushed out  to quell it. He was so clever in doing this, that even if it meant throwing his black mentors under the bus to prove and reassure white people that he got their back, he did so, effortlessly and without hesitation. It worked and it rewarded him with two presidential terms, eight years in the White House. Such a feat by a minority candidate will not be easily replicated again, if not impossible and at best, will be extremely difficult. Barack Obama is extremely gifted; he is a child of destiny and all the stars in the constellation correctly lined up to help make him president. 

Unfortunately, there is no Barack Obama among all the minorities running for president in 2020, because the good Lord does not make many of Obama's type, but randomly rewards every generation with just one or few of such figures. Such historical figures are like the Northern Star, of whose true fix there is no fellow in the firmament. Martin Luther King was such a fellow and since his assassination, many have tried but failed to fill his larger than life shoes. Barack Obama is it and possibly Barack Obama will be the it, the first and last one and only minority to ever be president of the United States of America, period. 

So, to all those people who are thinking that America has turned the corner by electing a black man president twice, and this thinking is the primary motive which is driving the minority candidates' quest for the presidency in 2020, ICHEOKU says not so fast. America has had their shot at a minority president and it will not happen again; at least not in the nearest future. Barack Obama was a smart and specially unique person. A well gifted political navigator, who cleverly masked himself and did not needlessly raise the antennas of white people. He was an epochal figure who had a perfect timing and made history as the first and possibly the last minority president of America; and such happenstance do not occur twice in a lifetime. 

ICHEOKU therefore is emphatic that there will not be another minority president of America, at least not in our lifetime. So, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Julio Caesar are wasting their time, energy and resources, gallivanting around in the name of running for president. The two black candidates, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, especially, lack everything which Barack Obama had in abundance. They lack his cucumber coolness, his air, his disarming smile, his decode-proof demeanor, his infectious charm, his eloquence and great oratorical skills, his ability to maintain his top gasket no matter the needling. In short, Barack Obama's personality is such that even his fiercest critics conceded that unique trait of his and are in agreement that he can never erupt, no matter the circumstance. 

Barack Obama is unlike the two black candidates, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, whose deep seated anger has repeatedly erupted on national television to the chagrin of the American people, who unfortunately will not be comfortable with having any of such irascible fella in their White House. Cory Booker bared his fangs with his Spartacus moment and Senator Kamala Harris displayed her temper also during the Judge Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearing. Kamala also did herself in by comparing ICE officials to KKK and most recently during her spar with Joe Biden on busing of school children. Both candidates have shown their hands and American people are scared of them; and will avoid having them as president just as much as people avoids a leper. Simply put, both candidates are too risky a proposition, to even contemplate putting in the White House. 

ICHEOKU says both candidates are too brash, too angry, too rash, too cocky, too anti White people to be president. They both nurse deep seated rage against White people, that if given the opportunity, will possibly call for their pound of flesh. White people are afraid of suffering repercussions for what happened in their history with black people and will always guard against that possibility. Barack Obama conned them up to the point that they became assured on his harmlessness and thus comfortable with him, elected him president. But with Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, they are so scared of them to the point of even being repulsed by them, such that they will first elect a dead Harriet Tubman president, before looking at the two. 

The two candidates, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, blew their cover so early in the game, that winning back the confidence and trust of the white people will not be easy, if ever. People everywhere are about protecting themselves and their interests; and white people will not just lay down prostrate or let their guards down and tempt fate by allowing any of the two candidates get into the White House. As a result, their  presidential bid is as good as a lost cause, dead on arrival; because neither of them will win the Democratic Party's nomination and if it magically happens, Cory or Kamala will not win the presidential election in November 3rd, 2020. 

Both candidates are just too angry to be trusted with the office of the president. White Americans are not comfortable with them nor ready to entertain the idea that they will not take vengeance against them by formulating anti white people's policies that will affect them adversely. Unfortunately, anger alone is not enough nor sufficient to win an election. A matter made worse for this duo because White people are still the majority in America and without their accepting, approving and supporting a candidate, such a candidate might as well be on a frolic of his or her own, wandering in the laland of a wishful presidency in their dream, but definitely not in the White House. 

ICHEOKU says only Barack Obama could pull if off and he did twice pull it off. Unfortunately, neither Kamala Harris nor Cory Booker is a Barack Obama and their current effort will end up only in aspiration, but definitely not in realization of the presidency. The other bad news for the two "angry birds" candidates is that there is nothing they can do at this stage to repair the damage to their reputation which they brought unto themselves, having been recognized as two angry, white-hating, black candidates. Such reputation or notoriety is like a stigma, once it sticks, it does not easily get wished away. Were ICHEOKU to be advising either candidates, will encourage them to wind down their operations and cut their losses asap, because their road to the White House is blocked with insurmountable obstacles - their anger and their anti white people's deeply rooted passion are both a no no for any person aspiring for the White House. Simply put, their presidential bid is toast, a typical example of failure to launch.

THE NEW FACE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

ICHEOKU says American people will remember when it matters most, come November 3rd, 2020, who the Democratic Party have ceded the control of their party to. SAD. Simply put, too radical and too left to be trusted with power.

ROSS PEROT: DEAD AT 89, RIP.

ICHEOKU says he was a billionaire politician and founder of the Reform Party, the first maverick to go up against the two political party establishment, running for president first as an independent in 1992 and later as a third party candidate in 1996. But where he failed, another billionaire politician, Donald John Trump, succeeded twenty years later, by using one of the political party as his platform, unlike Ross who wanted nothing to do with either party. 

Ross Perot was indeed an American icon, who founded EDS and once quipped: "Born in Texas, bred in Texas and when I die, it shall also read dead in Texas." He loved his State of Texas so much and unapologetically too. He also loved life and he lived it fully well, with great passion for dancing. Ross Perot died of old age infirmities and complications of leukemia; he was 89 years old. May his soul now rest. Adieu Perot.

United Kingdom AMBASSADOR TO THE USA: RECALL AND REPLACE HIM NOW.

ICHEOKU says the British government must be unequivocally read the riot act, either they recall their renegade ambassador to the United States of America for acts considered hostile to his host government or the United States of America government should revoke his diplomatic credentials and have him thrown out of America forthwith. There is no justification to be that critical of a president of America, regardless; moreso President Donald John Trump is not the president of Britain nor does America take their Queen to shredders. It also does not matter what informed his opinion, there are certain things that are beyond such acidic relationship-tearing outburst. 

Who is the ambassador to stay on United States of American soil and insult a duly elected president of America. Such an affront must be confronted head-on, otherwise other countries will follow suit in chastising an American president. Such behavior or rather misbehavior is simply a no, no and must not be tolerated nor condoned. Therefore Theresa May must be given a forty eight hours within which to recall her ambassador or have him thrown out and sent back to her. Either way, Ambassador Darroch must leave the United States of America for having irreparably broken the trust and confidence necessarily required for a good working relationship between the two countries, no negotiations on this matter required or needed because none is acceptable. 

ICHEOKU says does not even know if the ambassador is Chinese or North Korean, from his name; but the joke is on Kim Darroch and he should be declared a persona non grata immediately and expelled from America, never to come back as long as the two terms of President Donald John Trump shall last. The ambassador is part of the anti Trump world order which never wanted Trump to become president. Also, at this juncture of not having a good friendly relationship with 10 Downing Street, declassifying the Steele Dossier or threat of it, will be a good play. The British government has been hostile to President Donald John Trump and was part of the grand conspiracy to stop his election as president of the United States of America. ICHEOKU says the ambassador is out of his mind in  committing such a diplomatic faux passe, especially for a country with special relationship with America. What a goof ball.

JEFFREY EPSTEIN: THE BILLIONAIRE PEDOPHILIA.

ICHEOKU says when money is not the problem and he has more than he knew what to do with and diverted some of it into sexual pervasion of the worse kind; molesting underage children and paying them pittance in return. He is a maniacally possessed sex predator  who prefers to prey on young easily impressionable girls; and if the account of one his victims is believable, she alone supplied him with 75 underage girls for his addictive sexual fetish with children. 

He is a 66 year old New York billionaire with a net worth of $2 billion, no wife and no children, two private jets at his beck and call, as well as a network of six homes including a private personal island where he often stages the grand finale of his ultimate orgy. In addition, he has a callous impetus to mess up other peoples children and he succeeded at it as well. Now, indicted for sexual trafficking, abuse and running a sex operation ring with minors, billionaire Jeffrey Epstein will be facing a long prison sentence if convicted. 

What a way to live life without any family strings attached, no wife, no children and no relatives; and you wonder if he had children and they are girls, how would he feel to learn that they were abused by a man old enough to be their grandfather. But it is a cruel predatory world out there and people always do what they do to take advantage of the next person, believing that they would get away with it and he almost did with the unbelievable sweetheart deal he got in Florida but which the Souther District of New York said no, not under their watch. 

Like Harvey Weinstein and Anthony Weiner before him, Jeffrey Epstein is yet another Jew, caught, testing the elasticity of what he can get away before being caught; and trust the American law enforcement, he did not escape from being held accountable. It is very sad what he nearly got away with; an absolutely unimaginable sweetheart deal.

BIDEN 2020: WHO IS DOING THIS TO JOE, NOT FAIR.

ICHEOKU says if Joe Biden was a grandfather, would beg and plead with him to call if off. The race is taking too much toll on our dearly beloved Joey from Scranton and people who love him should pressure him to withdraw from the grueling endeavor and retire in peace. 

The presidency is not worth the torture and not for an old grandpa who has been in Washington DC for nearly 50 years. ICHEOKU says what is it exactly that old Joe wants to do now which the past 47 years did not let him do. Please Joe, rethink your decision to run for president at your very advanced age; not good for his overall health, mentally, psychologically and physically.

'C'MON MAN' JOE BIDEN: THE INTERVIEW WITH CHRIS CUOMO.

ICHEOKU says watching Joe Biden's interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo would make one wonder whether the eight years of Obama/Biden time in the White House never happened. He denied complicity in nearly everything and pretended as if everything he complained about that was wrong with government and which are afflicting American people as well as the world at large were not there when they both, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, were in the presidency, piloting the affairs of the nation and peradventure, the world. 

President Donald John Trump did not manufacture those problems but inherited them from Obama/BIden government and just trying his best effort to fix them, solve them or ameliorate them. From North Korea to China to NATO to Europe to Vladimir Putin, who Joe Biden said in the interview was corrupting democracies around the world, meddling in America's election, Britain, Poland, Georgia, Ukraine and Syria, as well as the greater Middle East; all predated the current Trump's government. Joe Biden failed to mention that all the Russian meddling, including in the 2016 America's election happened under his and Obama's watch; and that Putin has not meddled with anything since President Donald John Trump came into office. It is also noteworthy that the Obama/Biden government refused to build the anti missile defense shield in Poland and also refused to sell to Ukraine lethal weapons with which to push back at the Russians, possibly out of fear and deference to Vladimir Putin. 

But suddenly, look who is talking "tough" now, when he couldn't be that "tough" when it mattered most and now pretending that he is the one we have been waiting for, as the second best thing to happen to America since the sliced bread. ICHEOKU says if Joe Biden in fact knew what he is talking about now, why did he not implement them when he was Vice President or at least persuade his boss Barack Obama to implement them, while their government lasted? But no, he waited until their eight years in the White House was fretted away, to now pontificate on a no brainier nonsense nothingness. It was also under Obama/Biden government that China stopped respecting American presidency and the disrespect was such that on one of Obama's stopover in China for a conference, the Chinese government refused to bring a step for Obama to climb down from Air Force One forcing Obama to use a back stairways to climb down. 

The South China sea Island was reclaimed under Obama/Biden and Ukrainian Crimea was also forcibly annexed by Russia as Joe Biden and Barack Obama stood watching. But now, he has morphed into a John Wayne and Spiderman all in one and talking as if he never had the opportunity to do as he is now boastfully chastising the president. And speaking of the Chinese and Chris Cuomo failed or deliberately refused to ask Joe Biden about his son Hunter Biden's sweetheart deals from a Chinese company; ditto the Ukrainians. 

Joe Biden also spoke about NATO but failed to own up that under Obama/Biden government, NATO had a free reign on America treasury and were not paying their fair share of funds necessarily needed for the upkeep of the organization. But instead of giving President Donald John Trump credit for revamping NATO, Joe Biden was busy being the politician which he is, trying to split hairs in a failed attempt to rubbish the great work which the president did in repositioning NATO and increasing its liquidity. Joe Biden also refused to apologize for his wrong position on busing of school children and rebuffed the several opportunities extended to him to make that wrong right. Whether it was a result of his being arrogant or incapable of understanding the need to put that chapter behind him, ICHEOKU does not know; but says what an opportunity missed. 

What Joe Biden meant by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being merely a winner of a primary and not an election winner, needs further clarification because not only did the Congresswoman from New York win the primary, but she also won the main election, the reason she is in the Congress today. But Joe Biden would rather belittle her great accomplishment by suggesting that she is an ordinary political paperweight who does not control nor have any influence in the Democratic Party. ICHEOKU says may be the grand ole boys and girls who own and run the Democratic Party have decided that it was about time the Congresswoman from New York is kneecapped. Possibly, things are about to get ugly in the Democratic Party, in a dog eats dog night of long knives fight, to finally finish off themselves in their war over ideological divide and generational leadership gap, which is brewing in the party. 

AOC must therefore prove to Joe Biden that she is the new deal; that Joe Biden belongs in the past; that his time has now gone and that the future of the Democratic Party belongs to her generation. She must take up the challenge thrown by Joe Biden's dismissal, by endorsing a new generation candidate and mount a fierce battle to humiliate Joe Biden out of clinching the party's presidential nomination. 

Joe Biden was also conceited about the economy and refused to acknowledge that the policy change from his Obama/Biden inept government was the reason for the current economic boom, as all the Obama/Biden strangulating regulations on business have been removed, business freed to do what they do best, create jobs. 

From his reaction on Kamala Harris attack during their debate, it seems that he was expecting Bernie Sanders and other male candidates to attack him, but not a woman, especially when that woman is a black woman, who happens to know him and his son Bo; when he served a black president Barack Obama as Vice President. His thinking might be, since he has suffered the humiliation of serving under a black president, every black person in America now owes him big time and must line up behind his presidential quest, having earned his black bona fides by agreeing to serve under a black president. 

ICHEOKU says Joe Biden repeatedly made references to Trump being a bully, which forces the question, who is really the bully between the two men. This is a man who regularly invaded women's space, sniffed their hair, touched and kissed them without their consent and against their will. This is a man who wouldn't apologize and has refused to apologize to the many he has offended, including these women-victims of his unwanted touchy-feely, those school children who his action denied busing to better performing schools. In fact, Joe Biden sounds off as a bully himself, having repeatedly stated how he taunted and smacked people on the mouth during his school years. 

The questions remains, if Joe Biden chickened out and failed to run against Hillary Clinton in 2016; couldn't defeat Barack Obama in 2012 primaries and instead was settled with a consolatory prize of a Vice President; now couldn't stand up to Kamala Harris, how does anyone, especially the Democratic Party voters, find comfort that such a wimp could stand the unabashed, no holds bare, fearsome awesome political guru that is President Donald John Trump, who fires from all cylinders, shooting first and then asking questions later. Probably, Joe Biden is just running his mouth as weaklings always do; because he knows down the bottom of his heart that he stands zero chance whatsoever in a brawl with President Donald John Trump, both then and now; and if he is in doubt, he should ask Vince McMahon of his encounter with the Donald on WWE. 

ICHEOKU says Joe Biden knows that China did not get to where they are presently within just the last two years of the Trump's presidency. They used the period when Obama and Biden were in charge of affairs to build up their economic and technological holdings, including their 5G Network. So who is really to blame for the Chinese audacity other than the two men who chaperoned America for 8 long years while China was pulling off from its leash, Barack Obama and Joe Biden. 

ICHEOKU says a man who speaks from both sides of his mouth and who readily changes his positions admitted to Chris Cuomo that the Democratic Party's presidential debate should focus on futuristic things and not things that are past. However, he forgot to add that the futuristic aspiration should appertain to everything, including a futuristic candidate; but not a man who has been in Washington DC for 47 long years and definitely belong in the past which he is urging the debate to avoid. So, why would anybody listen to Joe Biden canvassing for a forward looking debate, but silent on a forward looking candidate and when his candidacy itself is from the ancient world, a nostalgic blast from the past. 

The other shocker in the interview was his constant "c'mon man" refrain to every attempted push back by Chris Cuomo. It was rather strange, his repetition of "C"MON MAN". It later became obvious why he did it as he wanted to sound hip, aware that he is out of touch and no longer belongs in today's world. Joe Biden laboriously tried to sound as if he belongs in this era's politics; and you wonder what somebody who first got elected to Washington DC in 1972, is still doing in politics 47 years later. 

Overall, the interview was revealing and showcased the real Joe Biden, the un-salvageable political sea-wreck which he is; and not the packaged Joe Biden which his minders would rather have and shamelessly trying to convince American people is the Joe Biden they should vote for. As you know, things could sometimes get crazy in life, but with Joe Biden, he is craziness personified. The interview unmasked him, the reason voices were heard from across the room shouting at Chris Cuomo to end the interview to stop the bleeding. Kudos to Chris Cuomo for snagging the interview and for his attempted push back on some issues; admitted that what was left unasked were plentiful.

SALUTE TO AMERICA: THE 4TH OF JULY SPEECH AT LINCOLN MEMORIAL.
