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

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.

KAMALA HARRIS' SENATE SEAT: WHEN BLM SHOULD HAVE FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT.

ICHEOKU says where is Black Lives Matter hell raisers when you need them? BLM is somewhat not focused on real things which should matter to black people. They seem to only show concern on things, although superficially important, but not necessarily of utmost importance for black people. When black people are senselessly murdered by their fellow black people, they don't seem to mind. When black people are not given jobs, they don't seem to care. When black people are not allowed in some neighborhoods, it is irrelevant to the BLM. When appointments are concerned, it does not worry BLM that black people are marginalized and finally when it comes to retaining what black people supposedly have won, BLM seem not to care as well. When the Supreme Court vacancy occurred, ICHEOKU urged BLM to lobby President Donald John Trump to appoint the first black woman to the Supreme Court as a replacement for Ruth Ginsburg but to no avail. 

Throughout last summer, BLM expended a lot of manpower and energy protesting throughout the streets of America which helped Joe Biden with his campaign election and without black votes, Joe Biden would have received a total drubbing from President Donald John Trump. BLM did not maximize the gains of their effort as they did not extract real commitments from Joe Biden before helping him with his campaign. Now a Senate seat vacated by the first black woman to ever make it to the Senate became vacant and instead of BLM descending on California Governor Gavin Newsom to ensure that another black woman, possibly the Mayor of San Francisco London Breed or Barbara Lee or Karen Bass or even Barbara Watters was appointed as her replacement, they went to sleep while others lobbied the governor for one of their own. 

Governor Gavin Newsom finally appointed a Hispanic male to replace a black female in the Senate, thereby closing black female's participation in the Senate. Meanwhile, American female feminists did not insist that Governor Newsom appoint another female to replace the vacated Senate seat which was previously successively occupied by females and you wonder why? Alexander Padilla's appointment now makes it the second high profile Californian Hispanic who has been sent to Washington DC as a result of Joe Biden's "election" which was made possible largely through BLM effort, the other one being Xavier Becerra. An aside however, for those saying that the seat was formerly occupied by a white female, ICHEOKU says the governor would have considered that it was the only seat occupied by a black female in the Senate or better still, at least appoint a Hispanic female instead.

It is unfortunate that when you expect Black Lives Matter to really matter or actively engage on issues of black people, they take the quiet way out, keeping mum and being inactive. It is regrettable that BLM do not usually seem to see the bigger picture and are only interested in rudimentary issues and only when a police man shoots a black person. If their effort is about black people, why not also inculcate things that will help improve black peoples' lives overall. It is sad that under Black Lives Matter's watch a once black female held Senate seat has been taken away from them and given to a Hispanic male. Why not a Hispanic female at least as by doing so, one of the implicated two issues would have been addressed, a female. But no, a total thumbing, dumbing and smackdown was carried out by Governor Gavin Newsom against blacks and females. ICHEOKU says where the feminists #MeToo activists at?
