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

“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.

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.

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.

LINDSEY GRAHAM: SOMETHING IS CHALLENGING HIS CONSCIENCE.

ICHEOKU says his personal life is shrouded in mystery as he has severally denied being a homosexual gay man, yet he behaves like one and looks like one. He has no family, wife nor children and he is always impeccably dressed with his hair frequently made up and every strand in place. All hallmarks of a gay man or at least a metrosexual. However, Lindsey Graham's personal life is not the subject of this essay, only that it might have influenced his seemingly wishy washy grandstanding on issues of certain importance to the conservatives and Republicans at large. 

Prior to his defense of Judge Brett Kavanugh during the Senate confirmation hearing, his fortunes with the Republican Party conservatives was somewhat waning. But he came out strong, made a passionate speech in defense of the Judge and rekindled his place among the people who identify with the conservative credentials of the Republican Party. But it seems that he was got to by some forces as he has since withdrawn back to his equivocated positioning on things and issues. Many people have been asking themselves what happened to the Lindsey Graham at Judge Brett Graham's hearing.

He used to be a RINO alongside John McCain, his bosom friend and after McCain died, he momentarily warmed himself up to President Donald John Trump. Needless to add that Lindsey Graham looked the other way during the time John McCain was fighting the president, begging the question, how sincere his rapprochement to the president really was. 

Lindsey Graham promised the nation that his Senate Judiciary Committee will investigate Hunter Biden's BURISMA corruption scandal, which would have ended Joe Biden's campaign a long time ago during the primaries. But somebody again got to him and he went cold with the investigation and more than two years now, nobody has heard anything about Lindsey Graham's promised Hunter Biden's investigation. It is on record that Lindsey Graham ended whatever investigation he was doing or never started it after Joe Biden's wife Jill Biden complained that Lindsey Graham is their family friend and that she does not know what happened to Lindsey Graham that warranted his threat to investigate their son Hunter Biden. 

ICHEOKU says if Lindsey Graham could drop the investigation of Hunter Biden which would have somewhat benefitted the president with his reelection campaign, which side is he then really on, anyway? Does it mean that all the attempt to woe him by the president with several golfing sessions did not succeed or that his loyalty to the Washington DC establishment power bloc is stronger than whatever loyalty he owes the Republican Party and by extension the president. ICHEOKU says does not know about you but there is something about Lindsey Graham that loudly shouts "cannot be trusted" and all the unrealized expectations from the Hunter Biden's aborted investigation buttresses this. It also adds credence to his lack of political fortitude, not being fully committed and down with the struggle to Make America  Great Again. There is something about Lindsey that is anti Trump.
