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.

MAGA RALLIES: COMEBACK, ANY TIME SOON?

ICHEOKU says one of the objective of the Wuhan coronavirus, in addition to tanking America's economy, was to halt MAGA rallies which increasingly showed President Donald John Trump as coasting to an easy reelection victory. But the coronavirus struck and with it such gathering of large number of people was tabooed as people were sent into their homes to quarantine. 

That is the story of where the world has been for nearly three months now until very recently, as people are now beginning to reemerge from their long boring shelter in place. With the reopening of the country, other things which make life livable should necessary follow, including attending arenas-filled rallies to go have fun with their candidates. This should be part of the top things to do as the country reopens, as the November election is fast approaching. It becomes somewhat imperative for a president who does not get a fair coverage from the biased media and needs such rallies to get out his message on why he should be reelected for a second term. The president has a lot of unfinished businesses which he needs to finish, the reason he has to be reelected. 

American people are ready to take their country back, both from the coronavirus malaise and elected officials who are muzzling them by continuously extending the shelter in place order. ICHEOKU watched as the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference opened in Beijing, with rank and file attendees wearing face masks and wondered why such could not be applied to a MAGA rally. Why can't members of Make America Great Again adorn face masks as they attend rallies, afterall it has been shown that coronavirus cannot be easily contracted by touch or from surfaces. People are flying in airplanes without much of social distancing, so why can't supporters of the president be allowed to come to his rallies, wearing appropriate protective gears, especially face masks. Their temperatures could be taken before going into the rally arena, in addition to performing other sanitizing that may be necessarily required to keep everyone safe. 

ICHEOKU calls on President Donald John Trump and his campaign team to think seriously about restarting MAGA rallies, otherwise the other side might secure an edge over getting their message out since all the media seem to be on their side. Instead, let such rallies be held in open fields and spaces in order to ensure more free circulation of air as well as much social distancing as is possible. Majority of MAGA attendees are usually people outside the coronavirus-risk age bracket and other people can be asked to stay away while the able and capable are allowed to return to their celebration of what makes America America, land of the free and home of the brave, and enjoying themselves doing it. 

President Donald John Trump is not getting a fake shake from the media and this is suffocating his reelection messages. They are not getting out nor reaching the vast population of Trump voters and when they do, they are always distorted. The worst of it all is that even Twitter is now blocking the president's tweets from reaching many of his followers who now hardly sees timely tweets from the president as he tweets them. Their only option now is to always go to the president's handle if they want to see or read his tweets. The social media giants are apparently in tank with the other side and many Trump voters do not even have access to social media, thus making it impossible for them to follow their beloved president and know what is going on with both his governance and the campaign. 

This group of people have been effected mostly by the cessation of MAGA rallies which usually provide them the first hand message from the president as the media is somewhat forced to cover them live. But with the rallies now gone, these people hardly know what the president is doing or saying as the media do not cover the president in favorable light most of the time; thus making it very difficult for new converts as well as old supporters to stayed informed on the president. This group of people are in the dark because of the MAGA rallies which are now in hiatus. The president needs to do something about it and find a way to bring back MAGA rallies in order to continue to get his messages through to the people who will vote to reelect him on November 3rd. The sabotage must not be allowed to go on indefinitely. #BringBackMAGA_Rally.
