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

WORDS ON MARBLE.

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.

IMPEACHMENT TRIAL IS AN OVERREACH: THE MATTER IS MOOT.

ICHEOKU says if the planned impeachment trial of President Donald John Trump will be presided over by the Senate's pro tempore, who usually seats over non presidents' impeachment trials, what again is the former president being tried for? For something which he allegedly did while still in office as a president and if, why is he now being subsumed under a "non president" status just for the purpose of forcing him under the Senate pro tempore authority. Does presidential immunity no longer cover "crimes" and other acts done by a president while in office? How can the president be tried as a "non president" for what he did as president and when crimes are punished only if the matter was a crime y when the act was done. So, it is either the president is president and therefore cannot come under the Senate pro temper's authority or whatever alleged crime he committed while in office is presidentially privileged. 

Moreso, the president did not resign in order to evade prosecution. No, he duly completed his term which was covered by his presidential immunity. Unlike the 1876 case of Secretary of War Belknap' impeachment trial where the Secretary resigned in order to evade prosecution, President Donald John Trump did not take any overt act such as resignation to avoid prosecution, he served out his term and should have been prosecuted while still in office as impeachment of a president provided, which failure has now made the matter moot. Also a member of the impeachment party cannot sit in judgment over the impeachment trial proceeding as a party to a case cannot be the judge, prosecutor and executioner in the interest of due process and fairness. Patrick Leahy cannot be impartial no matter the pretense and how will he eventually vote when it comes to voting to convict or acquit the president. 

ICHEOKU says does not really know why the Republican Party is tagging along with the Democratic Party's impeachment effort against President Donald John Trump as they should have since shut it down as overreaching.  President Donald John Trump is not a "non president" for the purposes of falling within a Senate pro tempore's adjudicative impeachment authority over non presidents because once a president always a president. The Democrats are just fishing and reaching, trying to claw through to anything just to get their wish. It does not make sense and it should have been stopped by the Republicans, except that they are apparently in concert with the forces ganging up to stop President Donald John Trump's possible come back in 2024. It is about time the Supreme Court is approached to stop the anomaly and put an end to the outrageous and outlandish overreach taking place in the United States Congress. Enough of the persecution.
