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

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: LARGELY RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENED TO TRUMP

ICHEOKU says recall when Senator Lindsey Graham threatened to subpoena Hunter Biden to testify in the Senate Judiciary Committee over the Ukrainian corruption scandal long before the Democratic Party's presidential primaries. Recall too that Joe Biden's wife, Jill Biden, issued a statement that Lindsey Graham used to be their family friend and that she did not know what came over him in his declared intention to investigate their son Hunter Biden. That put to an end the threatened investigation as nobody heard again from Lindsey Graham thereafter, regarding committee's investigation of Hunter Biden. Joe Biden then proceeded to become the Democratic Party's presidential candidate orchestrated by the party's honchos who once again successfully stopped Bernie Sanders from clinching their party's nomination. 

If only Lindsey Graham had not caved in to the Washington DC establishment pressure of which the Bidens are part of; and manned up to conduct the investigation, Joe Biden would have been forced out of the primaries race and there would not have been the present situation which America is faced with, where a man who is hardly coherent was foist on America as their "elected" president. 

Lindsey Graham used to be friends with John McCain and by extension Joe Biden as the three amigos were permanent Washington DC swamp dwellers and for a very long time. So, despite the confirmation of Justice Kavanaugh's hearing where Lindsey Graham somewhat redeemed himself and tried to reestablish some true conservative credentials, he used to be known as a RINO (Republican In Name Only) and was unflatteringly often called "Lindsey GrantAmnesty" because of his liberal inclinations which made him not to be fully accepted within the core conservative Republican fold. 

Many people know where the heart of Lindsey Graham truly lies and despite all the golfing opportunities the president offered him in his effort to win him over, Lindsey Graham was never fully vested in the Trump's Washington DC attempted take over. He is part of the swamp and his heart is with the swamp; and it made him not to take Joe Biden out of the presidential contest when he had the opportunity to do so through the corruption scandal involving Hunter Biden. He has a soft spot for Joe Biden and couldn't let himself be blamed for putting an end to Joe Biden's quest, the third time, for the presidency of the United States of America.

To understand where a person's heart really lies, it is good to check their past record and evaluate a pattern of decisions they make to see why they made them. If Hunter Biden was another person's son, he would have conducted the investigation; but he didn't primarily because of what Jill Biden said as he did not want to be held responsible for aborting Joe Biden's bid. So, despite Lindsey Graham's professed effort to assist the president in his current effort to recover the stolen election, including his $500K donation to the effort, deep inside his heart, he is happy with the way things turned out. First, his friend Joe Biden is taking over and second, his somewhat foe Donald John Trump is being kicked out of Washington DC never to be back, ever and peradventure the swamp was saved. 

Politicians are who they are and often not reliable. Some of them are dirty and they play all manners of deception in their quest for power, notwithstanding their outward pretentiousness. So, anyone fully trusting Lindsey Graham's unflinching commitment to Trump, both his presidency and his current effort at restoring his stolen mandate, have not seriously looked into his eyes to see through his inner being. ICHEOKU says will first trust Georgia State Governor Brian Kemp to do right by the president before fully trusting Lindsey Graham in the matter of the stolen presidential election. 

But unfortunately, it looks likely those who conspired to steal the election might succeed in taking over the White House because their conspiracy is deeper than anyone could have imagined possible. The deed has been done and what we are witnessing now is the various participants carrying out their assigned role in the bargain. From a recount of ballots that were already infused with illegal ballots which cannot produce a different result, to some judges dismissively throwing the matter out as lacking merit, to big media and big tech on overdrive to affirm what they brought about, each is part of the effort to finally get rid of Trump from Washington DC. 

They failed with Russian Collusion and Ukrainian telephone call impeachment and will not allow themselves to fail with the election. What a convenient narrative; and unless the Supreme Court exhibits some uncanny courage, it will be a bridge too far for the president to recover the stolen election. This begs the question, will the president go to the next level and declare martial law, put uniform federal election procedure in place throughout the country, conduct a fresh election and then whoever wins be declared president. Six extra months will not hurt anyone, afterall there is nothing sacrosanct with January 20, provided it is got right.

Anyway, just a penny for your thought, but Lindsey Graham's refusal and failure to conduct that promised investigation of Hunter Biden led to the outcome which Americans are now faced with in an "elected" president Joe Biden. The only consolation however is that karma is alive and well; and the challenges his administration will be facing will be so gargantuan that he would wish there was never a hanky-panky in the manner his presidency was brought about. He might be forced to either resign or allow himself to be removed through Article 25; but that a man who carried out a presidential campaign as Joe Biden did and whose mental and physical abilities are greatly depreciated "won" the election is simply laughable. Hard work is supposed to pay we are told and you wonder which of the two candidate worked hard during the campaign. ICHEOKU refuses to accept that COVID-19 alone determined the outcome of the election or that Pennsylvania voted against their interest, fracking. It is sad.
