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!

PUNISHING CROWN PRINCE BEELZEBUB WILL BE A BIG MISTAKE.

ICHEOKU says Joe Biden must not do anything against the Crown Prince of Beelzebub that could unravel the Abrahamic accord being worked out between Israel and Arab nations anchored by Saudi Arabia. He must also consider the economic cost to America should the Kingdom become so riled up and decides to retaliate against America. He must further decide  whether it is worth costing America about the only ally left in a region where America's influences is gradually grinding down to insignificance. Therefore, Joe Biden must not allow himself to be pushed by his snowflakes base into making a rash decision against the prince that will hurt America's overarching interest. Jamal Khashoggi is dead and no amount of punishment levied against the evil prince of darkness can bring him back. So, America must cut its losses, hedge its bets and defer whatever sanction on the bad fella ad infinitum, forever until further notice. That is the best case scenario. #Don'tPunishThePrince. 

LADY GAGA AND HER DOGS: A STATEMENT IN LIBERAL COLD HEARTEDNESS.

ICHEOKU says the dognapping of Lady Gaga's pet French bulldogs shows exactly what is wrong with liberals and the type of things which are more important to them and for which they spend their energies prioritizing. Her dog walker was shot protecting her dogs and clinging to his life in a hospital. But Lady Gaga instead of worrying about him and placing a bounty on the heads of his attackers to help capture them, placed a $500,000 reward on finding her dogs. 

That is one half of a million United States of American dollars for just two little dogs which were not even shot and which she could have easily replaced for less than one tenth of the amount in a worse case scenario. Meanwhile nothing even a dime did she place to incentivize finding the pervs who shot her dog walker, thus telegraphing an unmistakable message that she puts more value on animals than she does on human beings. ICHEOKU says it is irrelevant that she allegedly treats her dogs as her children and members of her family, but they are still animals which replaceable and also be even cloned if getting their exact replacement is desired. But human beings, once they are gone they remain gone forever; a fact which would have persuaded a more caring person to prioritize the recovery and wellbeing of her dog walker than finding her pet animals. 

A more rational loving person would have advised herself accordingly and taken into cognizance that a human being in her employ was shot while defending her dogs and now clinging to his life in the hospital. That everything should be done to ensure his recovery and wellbeing, including finding those who tried to murder him. But she did not give a damn nor cared a hoot in the world about him to prioritize his affair, instead it was finding her little dogs that was her priority. May be in her thinking and as far as she is concerned, she pays the guy to do his job and therefore she must not additionally be bothered about what happened to him or burdened with it. ICHEOKU says it is what is wrong with liberals, they always preach one thing while they do another including preaching compassion while they are not compassionate. 

How can any human being with warm blood in their veins not feel enough empathy to care about a fellow human being who was shot in the care and defense of some little dogs, especially ones belonging to that person. Everyone who watched the video of the assault saw the bravery of the guy when resisting the armed men and he courageously fought them trying to protect the dogs until he was shot and then fell to the ground at which point they made away with the dogs. Most people facing a gun would have relinquished those dogs within milliseconds but not the that guy and has earned everything which could have come his way from Lady Gaga. Did Lady Gaga not see the horrifying video and why did she not consider it worthwhile to also include finding those armed robbers who shot her dog walker before they stole her dogs in her reward offer. 

ICHEOKU says Lady Gaga was wrong and did not act right by caring more about her dogs than the fella who protected them and was shot in the process. He put his life on the line for those dogs and resisted the bandits to the end when he was felled down by their bullets. It shows that Lady Gaga's heart is on the wrong place, with animals and not with human beings and should be called out for this. It is very cold and uncaring of her to so misplace her priorities in this manner that it now rubbishes the good things which she might have done in the past. She should be condemned for caring for animals more than human beings. 

But unfortunately, the media is not calling her out for this animal before and above human beings discretion because they are both on the same side of the ever pretentious political liberalism. Imagine the hell of condemnation which they would have raised were she on the other side of the political divide. They would have chewed and spit her out as being so uncaring, callous, heartless, unfeeling and simply wicked in choosing dogs over human beings. It is sad how some segment of the society now values animals more than human beings. Anyway, it is good that those dogs have been found and we wish her dog walker a speedy recovery. Lets see what she will do about her dog walker who is still in the hospital and whether she will place some reward on catching his attackers; and also take care of his hospital bills and compensate him accordingly for putting his life on the line for her dogs.

MBS' FINDING OF GUILTY: WHAT'S THE POINT ANYWAY?

ICHEOKU says what use is it in finding someone guilty of an offense but not punishing him for committing the offense. Why did the government waste time and resources investigating a crime if it is only for show and not meant to punish the offender as a deterrent to others. So what if the government just confirmed what the world knew right from the start that the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed Bin Salman killed Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi? What is the point if he is not punished for what he did; is he above the law or is America afraid of the consequences of an overreach in punishing him? 

But as with everything the far left does, symbolism is the key. They live in their make believe world of fantasy where their reality is different from the rational reality and where they always want to be seen as going to do something rather than actually doing the something. This helps them to psychologically justify their hypocritical way of life which they delude themselves is better and far superior to the other side, the right side of course. They harangued President Donald John Trump without ceasing for cozying up too much to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and not punishing their Crown Prince of Beelzebub Mohammed Bin Salman for murdering journalist Jamal Khashoggi. But now that their Joe Biden had the same opportunity to punish the same fella and has similarly passed, it is all cricket on their side. There was no similar fever-pitched hysteria from them which similarly demanded that Joe Biden not to do what he just did and/or thereafter, condemn him for what he did, granting a general pardon and amnesty to MBS. 

But what exactly can America really do to Saudi Arabia when the Kingdom can sink America's economy if it chooses; afterall they practically own America having invested heavily in America's economy including in banking, finance, real estate, Internet based outfit, Wall Street and security bonds. They also have the capacity to crash America's oil and energy economy by flooding the world market with the black liquid. They can also dump their dollars and force the dollar to become toilet paper without value. They can decide to withdraw their students from American universities and colleges and with it the millions of dollars which they pump into America's education economy. They can decide to pull out their over $700 billion cash in America and put it elsewhere. They can decide to stop buying Boeing planes and other aircrafts from other American manufacturers including fight jets. Lastly they can decide to stop patronizing America's defense industries by sourcing their weaponry elsewhere including from Russia, China, United Kingdom and Europe. 

So what exactly is the leverage which America really has over Saudi Arabia that the Kingdom cannot find elsewhere including mercenary countries to defend it. But it was the pressure of the far leftist anarchists that forced Joe Biden's hand and he did what he did just to placate them, which of course they are already complaining was not enough nor satisfactory. 

Anyway, the gist of this article is not to chastise Joe Biden for going easy on MBS; no, it is just  to once again bring to the fore the hypocrisy of the left which always talks more than they do. They were fully aware that there is nothing much America can actually do to the Saudi Arabia prince over the murder of Khashoggi yet they attacked President Donald John Trump endlessly for not doing something to the prince. They also accused the president of all manners of collusion including covering up for and protecting MBS, the reason they proffered made the president spare the rod and not punish the prince for the killing. Joe Biden has now done exactly the same thing by not punishing the prince. 

But it is what it is as things rarely changes in diplomatic relationships as friendships are bonded by purely only interests and not morality. Countries including America regularly first weigh the pros and cons of their actions against any country before taking them. Fortunately for Saudi Arabia, they have special status  because they have some serious economic muscles backed by billions of dollars of oil money which they can easily throw around if provoked; hence America had to think twice before making the Kingdom unhappy. It is all about the Benjamins and they got loads of it, the reason America cannot use any stick on them no matter how small or big. For far leftist trouble makers, you now know to stop the whining that Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman got away with murder.

CORONAVIRUS DEATHS: STILL BLAMING PRESIDENT TRUMP, THINK AGAIN.

ICHEOKU says statistically speaking, it is now apparent that more American people have died from the coronavirus disease under Joe Biden's administration than did under President Donald John Trump. Throughout the eleven months the coronavirus pummeled the land under President Trump, 400,000 thousand American people died, at the average ratio of about 40,000 deaths each month. But within just one month of Joe Biden in office, over 100,000 American people have perished; at the rate of over 100,000 deaths each month. 

So juxtaposing the two periods, it means that over one million Americans would have died in Joe Biden's eleven months in office and/or 100,000 thousand Americans would have died under President Donald John Trump's one month in office. This is not to say that Joe Biden did anything in particular to instigate the unusually high number of deaths recorded under his one month watch over America. By the same token, blaming President Donald John Trump for the coronavirus deaths recorded during his presidency is also wrong because the president did not cause the deaths. It was not his making, he did not manufacture the virus, it from Wuhan China. He also implemented every recommendations by Dr Anthony Fauci who incidentally is also  advising and recommending "solutions" on the coronavirus for Joe Biden as well. 

President Trump is also neither a scientist nor a medical expert and was not involved in treating afflicted Americans and could not have negligently caused their deaths; ditto Joe Biden. Therefore it was hurtful and unfair to blame President Donald John Trump for coronavirus that happened during his presidency and not equally blame Joe Biden for such deaths. It is obvious that hateful partisan politics drove the maniacal attacks against President Donald John Trump that he somewhat caused the coronavirus deaths. Joe Biden has been in office for more than one month now and deaths from the coronavirus have not abated, ceased or stopped; rather it has inched up astronomically. ICHEOKU says those people who pushed the anti Trump coronavirus message ought to apologize to him for wrongfully branding him with the coronavirus deaths as their Joe Biden has not stopped the coronavirus from killing people. 

ICHEOKU says will any day choose a 40,000 coronavirus deaths per month tally recorded under President Donald John Trump over the current 100,000 coronavirus deaths registered within just one month of the Joe Biden's administration, admitted a zero death tally would have been easily preferred. All it shows is that the virus would have still had its way regardless of who was in office last February when it reared its head. It wouldn't have made any difference had Joe Biden been in office last February neither would the current death rate been different had President Donald John Trump remained in office. Viruses always have a life span and they usually run it completely, regardless and the coronavirus is doing exactly the same thing as viruses do. 

So do the math and be the judge whether blaming any president for the actions of an invisible viral enemy is the right thing to do. Everything President Trump was accused of that delayed intervention against the coronavirus, Dr Fauci is equally guilty of. Like Trump, Dr Fauci told Americans earlier on not to worry about masks, not worry about the disease and that it will go away before too long. However, efforts were timely made to speedily mitigate the situation with supply of needed PPEs, masks wearing, washing of hands and safe distancing when studies eventually recommended them. So how can anyone rationally justify Dr Anthony Fauci being celebrated as the oracle on coronavirus with over 500,000 coronavirus deaths under his watch, but a president who relied on his supposed "expertise" is being ostracized for the 400,000 coronavirus deaths which Dr Fauci equally supervised. It is not right. Lets stop the blame game and stay laser focused on ending the pandemic without all the distractions.

MAGA NATION: NO REASON TO BE ASHAMED, STAND TALL AND PROUD.

ICHEOKU says MAGA nation must not allow themselves to be canceled nor give the Woke Cancel Culture revolutionaries any reason to celebrate another victory. That some people did something on January 6th, 2021 at the Capitol does not mean that 74 million strong MAGA nation is guilty of what happened, either by reference, incorporation or association. MAGA nation should not feel pity for themselves about it or in shame, scurry into a dank dark cavern to hide from the sun of visibility. It is not who we are; we did not storm the Capitol and there is no such violence in the DNA of the membership of MAGA nation as none ever occurred throughout the more than four years of our seismic shifting political existence. 

Our only sin and the crime for which the far left can actually accuse us of and prosecute us for, and to which we plead guilty as charged because we have no defense whatsoever is that we love our dearly beloved President Donald John Trump unconditionally and passionately. If this qualifies as a crime then we don't want to be on the right side of the law; but fortunately it is not and therefore we did nothing for which we should be ashamed of. Admitted we would do anything the president asked of us and unquestionably follow him into any political battle his heart may conceive and desire because we love him dearly and his words are our command, but January 6th 2021 was no such occurrence. 

Had President Donald John Trump asked MAGA nation to burn down the Capitol on that fateful day of January 6th, MAGA nation would have obliged him and done exactly as he had said and commanded or at least many would have died trying. But fortunately, the president never asked and did not ask us to breach nor burn down the Capitol and we are not a violent group. MAGA nation did not storm the Capitol, admitted a few exuberant members participated in the riot which was carried out by some fringe elements of the society and knuckleheads from across the broader political spectrum and it is regrettable. Their participation should not be a ground to brand MAGA nation a riotous group because we are not and we strongly reject any attempt to broad brush us. 

MAGA nation is passionate about their country and their beloved president; we love to have fun; we love law and order and we love our law enforcement agents. We are proud of our heritage, the reason we walk square-shouldered tall with our heads held up and chins held high. But we will not accept the smear because only a negligible minuscule few were carried away by the spur of the moment and it is wrong to attribute their action to the MAGA nation. We refuse to be so railroaded. If the entire 1.3 billion muslim population in the world were not held responsible for 9/11 then MAGA nation cannot and should not be held responsible for January 6th. Therefore MAGA will not disappear into the thin air in shame just because a few bad eggs took part in something that abominable. 

Nobody is denying the fact that what happened at the Capitol on January 6th was opprobrious, but the condemnation of it is where it should rightly end. But blaming the entire MAGA nation for it or trying to force them to retreat into hiding because of it is wrong and unacceptable and it will not be accepted. There is nothing to be disappointed of MAGA nation or for them to be ashamed of, afraid of or even remorseful for, because those trouble makers who breached the Capitol building on January 6th, 2021 do not represent MAGA nation. They are strays who joined the real anarchists who had planned to ferment trouble several weeks before the D-day. MAGA nation have remained peaceful throughout the last five years of their existence and cannot suddenly turn violent and morph into strange beasts. 

There is no amount of blame-shaming that will be sufficient to impose a collective responsibility on the entire 74 million MAGA nation for the actions of a few bad eggs including many infiltrators who passed themselves off as MAGA supporters by wearing outfits and flying flags of our dearly beloved president. Even one of them was on CNN boasting how he pretended to be a Trump's supporter just to cause trouble on that day and they were many of them in the crowd that eventually breached the security parameters and gained access into the Capitol. So, MAGA nation will not be intimidated nor cowered down. It will stand up, stand tall and always keep their smile on. They will not allow the cancel culture vultures to rip their soul out. MAGA nation will keep on fighting and will never allow those buzzards to succeed in dismantling the movement which our dear leader President Donald John Trump founded. Enough of the piling on. Viva MAGA!

TIGER WOODS CHEATS DEATH AGAIN, SURVIVES A BAD ACCIDENT.

ICHEOKU says it could have easily been another mourning for the sports world just like the Kobe Bryant incident. But thankfully, he was wearing a seatbelt and inside a well made vehicle which did not hopelessly crumble and provided him the safety cage that kept him alive. Tiger Woods was lucky to be alive following the accident and for this, millions of his fans are thankful.

Speed was definitely a factor in the accident as there was no blown tire or screeching tire marks on the road to show that he suddenly happened on something which surprised him and in the process of avoiding it, maneuvered his vehicle and over corrected it in such a way that resulted to the roll over. It has also been established that he was not under any influence of alcohol or drugs which could have possibly caused the accident. 

But he should not have been driving as he is probably rustic behind the wheels since he does not frequently drive. He should also not have been speeding through an unfamiliar roadway which he is not conversant with and aware of the exits. It is possible too that his GPS came on announcing the exit as he was distractedly speeding in an unsafe lane and distance to make the exit but decided to still make it anyway. Hopefully, accident investigators will reveal what actually happened that led to the accident involving golf great Tiger Woods, the self proclaimed non black, black American. The world of sports and his loving fans are grateful that he came out of it alive with only a few broken bones as it could have been worse. ICHEOKU wishes TW a quick recovery.

CORONAVIRUS AMERICA NEEDS A NEW FACE: IT'S TIME FOR DR FAUCI TO GO.

ICHEOKU says the diminutive 80 years old epidemiologist has been the face of coronavirus in America since the advent of the pandemic last February 2020. He is the go to authority figure on the pandemic as anything and everything he says about the virus  becomes the gospel, the truth and only truth about coronavirus. He was the coronavirus "expert" when no American died from the pandemic and one year later, he is still the coronavirus "expert" now that over 500,000 Americans have died from the pandemic. This is not the type of progress which is expected of his "expertise"; American people deserve better and in fact needs a 180 degree change on the type of expert who is managing the coronavirus pandemic. American people should therefore demand for a result based expertise as opposed to one which is predicated on mere guesswork with the attendant inconsistencies and missteps. 

Any other consultant or even employee with such a record as Dr Fauci garnered in his coronavirus pandemic management would have since been fired for advising Americans in a wrongful uninformed manner that led to such an outrageously high number of deaths recorded. Five hundred thousand coronavirus dead Americans is a bad record for any "expert" to set and it should have been enough to disqualify him from continuing in that capacity going forward. One is forced to ask, what difference then would it have made if it was a bar tender that was advising Americans on the coronavirus instead of Dr Fauci since his supposed "expertise" did not make matters any better nor positively impacted the disease with less casualties. Rather he earned America the deadliest place on earth where the coronavirus savaged the people the most. America should discontinue his services as the face of coronavirus as he had led America only to the bottom place in coronavirus devastation. 

ICHEOKU says Megan McCain was right that Dr Anthony Fauci has been "inconsistently messaging" Americans on the coronavirus and still continuing till date; and that American people need a new person to lead the coronavirus effort. ICHEOKU totally and completely agrees with Megan McCain that it is about time Dr Anthony Fauci is let go and for a new person to mount the saddle and carry on with the effort. At least such a change will breathe some fresh air into the coronavirus management and also give Americans a reason to be hopeful once again that the new face will bring a new hope to what has become a very devastating lingering situation. In fact Anthony Fauci as the face of coronavirus is now stale and projects despair and hopelessness. It was under his watch that 500,000 Americans lost their lives to coronavirus and he must accordingly be debited as such. 

With this type of result how can he or anyone justify his continuing stay in that office, having failed abysmally in the discharge of this assigned responsibility. To some, he may be the oracle on coronavirus and to so many others, he is the reason America did not fare well in dealing with the Chinese scourge. America did not get an early start in battling the pandemic last February 2020 because Dr Fauci told Americans that they have no reason to worry about the developments in Wuhan China. He also gave series of inconsistent advises along the way last year which led to the destruction of five hundred thousand of American lives by the Chinese Wuhan pandemic. He is always on television where his mousy face and quivering lips have become a near permanent fixture, reeling out the dos and don'ts in the battle against the coronavirus pandemic, yet 500,000 dead Americans are the only testimony to his expertise, really?

If Dr Fauci is such an expert why did America suffer the worst fate in the coronavirus scourge when so many other countries including more populous China and India as well as so many third world countries did not see deaths nearly close to what America is witnessing. The same Dr Fauci who led the coronavirus effort during President Donald John Trump is still leading the effort in this Joe Biden's administration and you wonder what difference he is going to make now which he couldn't make or weren't allowed to make during the last administration. A matter made more serious because none of his numerous advises and recommendations during the President Donald John Trump government was ignored or not implemented, yet he recorded such a devastation. So, following this his proven failure, why should anyone including Joe Biden now trust Dr Fauci to do better. 

The panacea is an effective break from the past and to bring in a fresh mind to oversee the effort going forward. Many people now only see Dr Fauci as the doctor death whose pronouncements throughout last year steamrolled thousands of Americans to their untimely deaths. Such a badge of dishonor should not be allowed to hang on the new administration and a total break from him is needed. It also does not matter what he says now or the lame excuses and effort he is making to distance himself from President Donald John Trump. He is stuck with being the face of coronavirus in America and nothing meaningful can come from his tired brain and worn out ideas regarding finding new ways to manage the pandemic. He is out of ideas; his previous solutions did not work to improve America's coronavirus fight and he has no new ideas to inject into the effort. It is time a new expert to be engaged to tackle the pandemic. 

Dr Anthony Fauci has no credibility left in him and his ability to fashion ideas that would help manage the coronavirus better is greatly diminished. He is full of contradictions and only "great" in the thinking and eyes of Hollywood, but definitely not the miracle worker needed for the coronavirus in the eyes of American people. American people are deeply disappointed with his performance and wants him gone and even since with the wind of January 20th alongside the previous administration. The fight against the coronavirus needs a fresh mind and a different scientific reasoning. Dr Fauci needs to go, at least if not for any of these reasons, for the optics of not being a left over from the Trump's administration. He was there last February 2020 and he is still here this February 2021 during which time 500,000 Americans have lost their lives. His leadership of the effort no longer gives American people hope that the coronavirus war is winnable or being won and he should be swept away and his position let another take. #AwayWithFauci

CORONAVIRUS DEATHS PASSES HALF A MILLION: RIP

 

500,000

WHEN THE RED PHONE RINGS: CAN HE ANSWER IT?

ICHEOKU says will he be fast asleep or heavily disorientated, sedated and going through one of his senior moments. Will he be struggling with balancing himself and his thoughts with extreme difficulty trying to articulate informed response to whatever situation that may be at play at the given time. Will he be able to appreciate the gravity of the unfolding situation, analyze same or discern the recommendations and then react to it appropriately. Will he have the presence of mind to engage foreign leaders in discussing issues which affect America's global interests when they arise and effectively protect America  or will he just yield to their pressure and give away too many stuff just to be seen as embracing globalism? In other words, when that red phone rings, will he be awake and alert to effectively answer it?

This was one of the many issues that was raised during last year's presidential election campaign leading up to the November 3rd 2020 when some people, despite all the obvious signs of mental fatigue, did something with their votes resulting in the change of leadership in the White House. Now, barely four weeks into the administration all the warning bells are going off and they are now telling us that senior citizen Joe "prefers" to go to bed early or as they phrased it, likes "early bedtime." ICHEOKU says if he retires to bed so early, who then will pick the red phone when it rings by 2.00am or will Kamala Harris be allowed to make life and death decisions such as putting American soldiers in harm's way when she is not the commander in chief of the United States military. 

The picture coming out of the White House does not telegraph anything comforting where Ms Harris is now conducting international telephone calls with foreign leaders, heads of States, prime ministers and presidents, a function which her office is not authorized under the United States constitution to perform. This is and should definitely be a cause for serious concern for American people as it suggests that the office of the commander in chief is technically vacant by necessary implication or not manned 24/7. If Joe Biden cannot stay up late at night to pick up the red phone when issues requiring his immediate attention arises in some distant foreign lands, why again is he in the White House as American people's chief servant and commander in chief. It shows that America has indeed, as predicted, entered into a one-chance vehicle with no assured destination in their GPS. 

How can a leader of a country go to bed at dusk when so many issues usually come up overseas very late at night, American time. Which foreign leader will rely on Kamala Harris' words and assurances when they have not heard from Joe Biden himself? Some things do not look right with the picture being painted by the White House and it gives no one any comfort to hear of such early bedtime situation. This is exactly what hatred do to a people when they decide to cut off their nose just to spite their face. America had it going for it with a very energetic workhorse president, who hardly sleeps but conspiracy of some people cost America that choice. Joe Biden was old and frail during the campaign before the election and there was no reason then to believe that he will somehow find the fountain of youth and magically mend after the election; but some people maniacally stayed the course and now this discomforting news of his continuing sloppy downhill slide. It is sad. #25THAmendment.

WISH IT WAS A DREAM.

ICHEOKU says don't we miss him already as the unfit in the White House is but a caricature and ghostly apparition of what was once. America had it going for it so well until some killjoy detractors decided to cut off the nose just to spite the face and it will never be the same ever again in America, at least not within the next four years. Even Saturday Night Live is boycotting and sitting out the current occupant of the White House and have decided not to cover him. Put in another form the presidential shoes of President Donald John Trump are simply too big for any other wanna be to ever fill. Sometimes, it does not even feel like America has a president currently. It is so sad what we are now forced to put up with under the guise of a president and it is not a dream from which one can just wake up. Simply unfathomable.  


TED CRUZ HAS APOLOGIZED: LETS MOVE ON.

ICHEOKU says agrees the optics was bad. It was tone deaf and a bad political move as he is seen as being insensitive and indifferent to the suffering of his electors, going on a vacation trip to sunny Cancun while some of his fellow Texans froze to death. However, he cut short the trip and returned and have since apologized; now, everyone must move on. Democrats flew to Hawaii last year during the lockdown to do their jamboree while millions of Americans were left without jobs and denied the ability of leaving their houses, so let's leave the selective righteous indignation aside and forge ahead with more serious issues facing the nation. Ted Cruz while on the trip was not entirely out of loop with the emergency and there were local and state officials whose task it was primarily. But hey, imagine Texas froze over and hell is still fiery hot. 

RONNA MCDANIEL SLEPT ON THE WHEEL: PARTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ELECTION OUTCOME.

ICHEOKU says she has been largely under the radar since the November 3rd 2020 election and practically shielded from all the blames and darting salvos following the outcome of the election. But it should not be so because she is somewhat largely responsible for not leading the Republican Party through a successful election. As the party's chairwoman it behoved on her to marshal all the election effort into a victorious outcome and at worst, could have retained the two seats of power held by the Republican Party going into the election. But to lose everything, regardless of the rigging that took place, is simply unforgivable and she should be held responsible for the cruel fate suffered by the Republican Party. 

She is not without blemish and cannot just go responsibility-free in losing the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives. She slept on her duty-post, the reason she did not see the antics of the Democratic Party coming and underestimated the length which they were prepared to go to get rid of the president from the White House. It is possible too that she did not anticipate the magnitude of their rigging and took contingency counter measures which were unfortunately not enough to counterbalance whatever the Democratic play was. Although nobody anticipated the level of rigging which took place, but a woman at the helm of affairs should have built in additional measures fully aware the existing animosity and the expressed intention by the Democratic Party to make President Donald John Trump a one term president. It was her duty to lead the Republican Party to a glorious outcome and she failed woefully; every other thing are but mere excuses. 

The worst outcome was her inability to even win back her State of Michigan which she won for the party in the last 2016 presidential election and this is simply inexplicable. This alone would have been sufficient to disqualify her from continuing as the party's chairwoman because there was no basis in fact to justify the renewal of her contract with the Republican Party as its chairwoman, having proved herself grossly incompetent and ineffective. She also crushed the hope which President Donald John Trump reposed on her when he removed Reince Priebus as party chairman and made her the chairwoman. At least Reince won a presidential campaign and also both houses of Congress for the party when he served. But somehow the Republican Party chairwoman has been largely unscathed from the dustup of the total routing of the party in the last election and you ask yourself why is she being protected. 

Although many people believed that the November 3rd 2020 election was stolen after the Election Day and that should give her an out from any blames arising from her performance or lack thereof. ICHEOKU however begs to disagree and says that the election was stolen long before November 3rd, 2020. It is called ballot harvesting and Democratic Party's operatives and foot soldiers perfected it into an art and handedly ate her lunch as she was oblivious of what hit her. Democrats did their homework well and they stole the election right under Ronna McDaniel's nose. They surreptitiously lobbied for peoples votes, handing in incentives and in some cases outrightly bribing voters. They did this by penetrating into poor neighborhoods, senior citizen homes, convalescence centers and Hospices to mop up votes and in some cases even literary helped fill the ballot by themselves for the invalids and inbound patients. 

They also used the pastors and leaders in various minority communities to organize and orchestrate the biggest heist of votes in America's election history which helped sway the outcome of the election. They had it in the bag before the November 3rd, 2020 and even Nancy Pelosi boasted during the campaign that it does not matter what happens on Election Day that Joe Biden will be sworn in as president on January 20th 2021. This is where Ronna McDaniel blew it as she waited for Election Day for voters to turn out en-mass and vote for Trump but unfortunately by then millions of votes have already been mopped from the polity which left  MAGA voters playing a catch up in order to surmount and surpass already cast votes for the Democratic Party's candidate Joe Biden. They fell short and that was why the outcome was what it was. 

ICHEOKU has reviewed and analyzed every possible scenario why the election ended the way it did because Joe Biden did not stand any chance whatsoever going into November 3rd, 2020. The conclusion is that some electoral malpractice took place but it was clandestinely and flawlessly executed in such a way that it fooled everyone and largely untraceable. Democrats were on top of their game and they caught Ronna McDaniel's led Republican Party napping and later yapping. It was like an infiltration maneuver where the enemy had already breached security parameters and doing their dirty deed on the grounds before more security were drafted to man the security fence. Republicans literarily had all their eggs in one basket, convinced that American people will not vote against their interest and will troop out in very large numbers to keep agendas America First and Make America Great Again going. It was that thinking that made the Democratic Party strategy to succeed as they swooped in when nobody was alert and hauled in all the votes they needed. 

It was that margin of early votes that made the difference in the election because American people turned out and decisively voted for President Donald John Trump on Election Day but their effort was not enough to override an already stacked odds against the president. The game was simple, community organizers were recruited by the Democratic Party who approached the people in their various districts that are well known to them in order to ensure that the plan was water tight and not leaked. Gifts including cash exchanged hands discreetly as a trade for votes and many people in poor communities took the bait. The lingo on the street was "what is in it for me" since their lives will not change regardless of who wins the election. So, the cash in hand or better still the bird in hand became a preferred choice to many because politicians' empty promises are never fulfilled once they are elected. 

It was such an enticing bargain for these poor voters; at least to get some reward now for their votes since nothing is guaranteed after the election and the mass mailing of ballots made it a field day for the Democratic Party's operatives. Broaching this issue always leads to the retort, where is the evidence and you wonder how possibly can it be proved when it was largely by words of mouth through neighborhoods, community centers and associations without any written or recorded evidence of it. Also those ballot harvesting carried out in senior and convalescent centers cannot be proved because who are you going to ask or interview; the dementia suffering seniors who did not even know that they voted or who they voted for, but who merely signed their signature as instructed by their care givers. Will the pastors confess that they instructed their ever submissive flock to vote for a particular candidate because that was what "God revealed and instructed them to do?" Who is going to confess to a crime of receiving something of value for their votes? That was where some of the campaign funds actually went into, tagged as mobilization and voter outreach expenses. 

Anyway, this is not a cry me a river lamentation, but to highlight the shortcoming of the Republican Party chairwoman who was caught off guard by the schematic Democrats. It is to apportion some blame to her for her shortcoming and cluelessness which made her not to see it  coming and catch it or provided counter measures to douse and mitigate it. But how does anyone actually guard or prevent such secret machinations especially when voters had their ballots mailed to them ahead of Election Day, thus giving the wide room for such manipulations. How can anyone reasonably stop faith adherents from listening to their pastors for directive on how to vote in an election? How can residents of senior and convalescence centers and hospices be made to not do what their care givers told them? 

How can anyone penetrate poor neighborhoods and community organizations to thwart such pay per vote schemes. It is in fact utterly difficult if not impossible to totally eliminate election tampering and voter fraud. Anyone who ever questions whether votes irregularities exist or doubts that such frauds do take place should just try to explain why and how dead people could cast ballots in an election. If it happened once it could have been replicated in hundreds of thousands if not more. Although some people insist that election irregularities are not generally wide spread and you tell them that the reason it appears to be not large scale is that they are so clandestinely executed that it is difficult to fully identify and isolate them. It is akin to pouring a a cup of rice into a bad of rice and then asking to prove if more rice was added to the bag when you cannot easily prove that some more rice was added. What happened was sad but Ronna McDaniel has some blame for it as well and she should know and be remorseful.

KIM DIVORCING KANYE: ANOTHER HOLLYWOOD CONTRAPTION BITES THE DUST.

ICHEOKU says the shocking thing about the announced divorce filing, if any, is that their union even lasted this long without any major drama or salacious scandal whatsoever. It was a faulty union at best, which arose from infatuation based on sheer shallowness rather than on real solid foundation that would have ensured an everlasting love. She was restless in marriage and went through a few successively; from Damon Thomas, to Chris Humphries then to jumping on the Kanye West marriage train which they rode for nearly seven years; a life time for many marriages especially a Hollywood marriage.  

ICHEOKU says if only Kanye West had listened to his bosom friend Jay-Z and his wife Beyonce, may be he would have saved himself the heartache of marrying a woman who is so invested in her family that she would rather Kanye became a subsumed member of the Kardashians clan than forge their own independent West family, separated from the Kardashians. So, without mincing words, it is obvious that control was an issue which plagued the marriage as Kim is the type of woman who does not do what she does not want to do and will not yield to anybody's preferred interest. Kanye West also has a strong will, thus their union ensured that two captains were placed on the same deck and navigating the same ship which led to it now running aground. 

ICHEOKU says had Kanye's mother been alive she would not have approved of their union. But unfortunately, her sudden death devastated Kanye so much that his behavior raptured into the erratic fella which he turned into and it largely influenced his decision to jump the shark and got entangled in the Kardashian's family web. A matter not helped by his soon to be former mother in-law who did not provide him with the motherhood comfort nor filled the mother vacuum which was created in his life by the death of his mother. But instead, the Kardashian matriarch is still playing the game of spotlight chasing and competing fiercely with other members of the clan for the front row seat and not taking a back seat and managing the family as would any unselfish mother. 

So the absence of Kanye West's mother was very much an issue as there was no mother to which he can easily run to for advise and counsel whenever an issue arose that bothered him about his martial life. ICHEOKU is not saying that he is not old enough to manage his life, but he was not matured nor prepared enough when he lost his mother and it haunts him till date. He still nurses the pain of his mother's sudden exit as they were very close and he relied on her for so many things, especially life advise; which is not the strongest suit of his mother in-law who is fiercely competitive herself. A good mother would have seen and listened to his cry for help on time and did the needful to properly equip him on how to handle family business; ditto Kim.

ICHEOKU is even surprised that Kanye West withstood the situation as long as he did, being always outnumbered. So many men would have since signed off and ran away but he persevered probably because he was afraid of not having a family to call his own. Anyway, ICHEOKU wishes both of them the best of luck and pray that they will learn to live without each  other and eventually find someone they could be at ease and at home with. Their values definitely significantly changed and maintaining two homes and different lifestyles seems no longer an option. Now they want to move on and go their separate ways and an amicable divorce is the best way to do it. They have commenced the process and hopefully it will be quickly settled so that the parties can be free and at rest independent of one another. 

TWO CUOMO BROTHERS COMEDY CENTRAL, COMING BACK?

ICHEOKU says why has the nursing homes coronavirus deaths cover up scandal not morphed into a Watergate sized scandal yet; or is the leftist fake news media covering up for the senior Cuomo? Even his junior brother Fredo has not deemed it fit to re-invite his big brother Andy back on CNN for a second edition of their Cuomo Brothers Comedy Central to hash out possible defenses for the cover up. But hey, it always depends on who their target is as everything they do on CNN is purely a narrative and not necessarily news reportage.

A POLITICAL REJECT: GOOD FOR HER.

ICHEOKU says it is good that President Donald John Trump rejected her entreaties for a Mar-Lar'Go detente as she has proved herself a double faced janus who cannot be trusted. Nikki Haley, despite all the love the president had for her and opportunity provided to serve as America's ambassador to the United Nations decided to throw the president under the bus, believing that the president would not survive his impeachment trial. She is simply too opportunistic and now must pay a hefty price of rejection from the 75 million strong MAGA nation. Sad.

MITCH MCCONNELL GOT HIS ANALYSIS WRONG: REALLY FEELING GRUMPY.

ICHEOKU says it is about time Mr Turtle retired from the Senate or at least resigned his leadership of Senate Republicans as he cannot be in opposition to the generally acknowledged dearly beloved leader of the party President Donald John Trump. Not any longer shall such open rebellion be tolerated, and particularly not now that the Senate has acquitted the president in the hoax impeachment trial, which they rightly did because the president was not guilty of committing the offense charged. 

So, regardless of how anyone, including Mitch McConnell, feels about the president's preceding conducts leading up to the riot, the only relevant issue was whether his January 6th Save America Rally speech caused the riot. The speech was the sole basis for his indictment and it was proved that the speech did not trigger the riot and that was where the case should have closed for everyone including Mitch McConnell. The president was found not guilty and acquitted and Mitch McConnell should have left the matter rested there. But he went out of his way to personally re-indict the president on extraneous accusations which were not part of the original impeachment and thus started the beef with the president. 

As a leader, he should show an example of leadership by not openly and publicly chastising a president from his party in such a disparaging manner. He should have known the implications of his words and weighted them thoroughly before uttering them. He could have admonished the president privately or in a Republican Senate conference, but he chose to publicly attack the president and that was where he crossed the line. Mitch McConnell was wrong and therefore at fault for publicly insulting the president and creating the current atmosphere of discord within the Republican Party. The president was put on trial and was found not guilty of the charged crime of "incitement of insurrection"; but instead of celebrating the not guilty verdict which his party recorded he decided to muddy up the president further; thus telegraphing that he would have had the president convicted had the charge been brought within jurisdiction and when he was still the Senate majority leader. 

Why such animosity against a president who even made his wife a Transportation Secretary and helped the Republican Party in so many ways including in fund raising and winning seats for the party. Even if he sincerely felt that the president was somewhat responsible for the riot, why so publicly chastise him since the Senate has already voted to acquit the president. Whatever issues he may have with the president and which were eating him raw from the inside, he should have kept them to himself and not so publicly visit his frustrations on a president who was found not guilty of the opposition party's "incitement of insurrection", a continuation of their four years  attack. The president did not incite the insurrection, at least not by the said speech and the charge was based on the speech, so what else was Mitch McConnell talking about. 

It is imperative that this distinction be made in order to remove any fog or cloud which may still be hovering around and blanketing the judgment of some people, including Mitch McConnell; that they may understand clearly that even if the indictment was brought timely during the currency of Trump's presidency which would have given jurisdiction to the Senate, the president would have still not been convicted because the speech contains no words which would amount to "incitement of insurrection." The one count impeachment charge was based on the speech and nothing more; so it is either there was provable words of incitement of insurrection therein or the president walks as he did walk. The speech was the only relevant evidence needed in the matter and it showed that the president did not utter any word during that speech that could be interpreted as an incitement. Whatever other past statements are irrelevant. 

It was one of the mistakes which President Donald John Trump made upon his inauguration not to have asked for Mitch McConnell to resign his leadership of the Senate Republicans alongside House Speaker Paul Ryan, to enable him start off with trusted leaders who are loyal to the president and whom the president would have relied on to accelerate his America First and Make America Great Again agendas. Such a new leadership would have worked better with the president in the overall general interest of implementing the Republican Party's agenda. The two men were never invested in MAGA project and were opposed to the president's emergence as presidential candidate of the party. This led to their lukewarm attitude to the president and made them stall the president's agenda which cost the bleeding in the party. 

That single mistake hounded Trump's presidency and the Republican Party agenda throughout the four years he was in the White House. Even as recently as the January 5th Georgia's Senate runoff election, Mitch McConnell refused to honor the president's request for the payment of $2000 COVID-19 relief and you now know why those hurting Georgians voted for the Democratic Party's candidates. How can a political player not understand what was at stake then and now Joe Biden will get the same relief for his base which Mitch McConnell prevented Trump from delivering to his base which would have otherwise influenced the Georgia runoff election outcome.

It is obvious that Mitch McConnell has lost touch with the Republican Party's base and is no longer interested in what is the best interest of the party. He possibly figured that at his old age and probably on his last term in the Senate that he no longer needs the Republican Party and so could do whatever he wants, aware that he will not suffer any repercussion. It is possible too that he is still mad at the president for supplanting his profile in the Republican Party and taking over the leadership of the party. It is also possible that he is mad at the president for referring to him as a swamp creature and wanted to introduce term limit in Congress in order to drain the swamp and get rid of people like Mitch McConnell, who have outlived their usefulness and no longer fighting for the party's core values; and have become inducted members of the establishment Deep State Washington DC swamp. It is also possible that Mitch McConnell, a certified member of the Deep State, was hellbent on getting rid of Trump for good, an agenda and had to smear him after they could not convict him. 

But where was Mitch's ire last year when several Democratic Party's members of the Congress were harassing President Trump, accused him of all manners of crimes including being a puppet of Vladimir Putin. When the Russia Collusion hoax was fever pitched which led to the Mueller's investigation and when they accused the president of organizing golden showers with prostitutes in a Moscow hotel, where was Mitch's anger. Where was Mitch McConnell when Eric Swalwell was sleeping with Chinese spy and possibly passing State secrets to her and Nancy Pelosi still kept him in the House's Security committee. Where was Mitch McConnell when the FBI was spying on President Trump and even withheld exculpatory evidence in the Russian Collusion malarkey. Where was Mitch when BLM and ANTIFA went on rampage last summer, protested him and his wife's dinner in a Kentucky restaurant, nosily picketed his home and even prevented Sarah Huckabee Sanders from eating her dinner and attacked Senator Ron Paul? 

But suddenly, here comes Mitch the Turtle firing on all cylinders of condemnation, not only attacking the president but also Georgia's Congresswoman Marjorie Greene and admonishing her on how not to be a conspiracy theorist. It was acceptable to Mitch when Democrats were conspiracy theorists with the Russian Collusion. He did not attack them or their leaders then but now choses to attack the Congresswoman and the president. May be he is angry that the president took his shine from the Republican Party or mad that he is part of the swamp dwellers that the president wanted to drain. But whatever it is, Mitch McConnell cannot be allowed to sink the Republican Party or take his pound of flesh from the president based on a non existent righteous indignation by selectively trying to punish the president for what he did not do. Mitch McConnell must therefore retreat his steps and become the leader who listens to the led, the majority of the Republican Party MAGA base; and not destroy the Republican Party on his way out. Enough of the bickering with the president, Mitch. End it or make way by moving away.

TWO LOSES TOO MANY.

ICHEOKU says what a two sucker punch to the stomach dealt the American right side in losing the White House and now the mega voice of conservatism in America. It is a huge blow regardless of how anyone wants to interpret or tailor their narrative as losing both pulpits gravely limits the reach and spread of the message for the right way for America. Such a double whammy within such a short period without sufficient time to recover from one before the other is indeed terribly saddening. Rest in peace Rush.

REST ON RUSH.

 ICHEOKU says he will be sorely missed as nobody was like him nor ever will be like him. He is simply irreplaceable. Rest on Guru Maharaja. Adieu Rush!

RUSH LIMBAUGH: DEAD AT 70 YEARS, ADIEU.


ICHEOKU says the man behind the golden microphone with half of his brain tied to his back just to make it fair and who more than 27 million listeners tuned in each day to hear what he was going to say next is no more. He succumbed to lung cancer affliction following a one year battle with the scourge to stay alive. He will be missed. Rush Limbaugh was fierce and fearless; and expressed his opinions without a care in the world nor apologetic about how anyone felt about what he said. He was many things to so many people but everyone agrees that he was extraordinarily gifted with the garb and he weaves it flawlessly and effortlessly. He held listeners spellbound and captivates his audiences who stay glued to their radio wondering what next will come out of his mouth. 

Many people who had issue with him and his radio program are mostly people who never found the time to listen through his program to understand where the gist of his show. He did his show  without malice, highlighting issues affecting the American society, especially conservative issues, with some panache and having fun doing it. ICHEOKU accidentally found his broadcast a decade ago and never missed a day since then and will surely miss the three hours daily engagement with the Guru Maharaja, whose talent was on loan from God and now he has gone to return the talent from where it came, back to God. 

Some people said he was a racist but his producer and second in command cum assistant is a black man Bo Snerdley. Some said he was homophobic but Elton John sang at his wedding and this was the same man who made a joke about his mother feeding on cat food. He was just an equal opportunity offender if his show could be considered offensive, but it was not. Only those who selectively edited and listened to sliver segments of it got mad. 

ICHEOKU recalls an incident when a fella called from the United Kingdom to confirm how to get Rush Limbaugh on the Internet. The guy had visited and on the way back to UK as we were driving to the airport, we tuned in to Rush Limbaugh's program and he was sold. He collected the information but apparently lost it and called back to get it. He later confessed that it was a very insightful program and was grateful to have been introduced to his show. 

Anyway, with his death, the show has definitely come to an end as nobody can in actuality fill his very huge shoes. Some guest-hosts who sub for him each time he was not available struggle through with pleasing an audience who still tuned in, aware that they are just there on a temporary gig as their Rush will come back later. But with the finality of his death, the pain is simply too much for them to bear and part of the moving on process will be to simply tune off as that voice and ingenuity are no more. 

Rush Limbaugh can never be duplicated or even closely imitated. Simply put, he was the show! What a season of despair it has been for the right side of American polity. President Trump lost the White House and now their mega mouthpiece, Rush Limbaugh, is gone. It is a double whammy, but life must go on. Mega Ditto goodbye to Rush Limbaugh for the many years of educating Americans in politics in his Rush Limbaugh tuition free political University where there was no graduation. Rest in peace Rush.

ICHEOKU SAYS IF THE NOVEMBER 3RD 2020 "RIGGED AND STOLEN" ELECTION IS A BIG LIE, THEN THE NOVEMBER 8TH 2016 "RUSSIAN COLLUSION" ELECTION MUST BE A FAT LIE. IT CANNOT BE A DIFFERENT CONCLUSION FOR ONE ELECTION RESULT AND A DIFFERENT CONCLUSION FOR ANOTHER. BOTH ARE LEGITIMATE DISPUTATIONS BY VOTERS OF TWO ELECTION OUTCOMES, PERIOD. #BeFair. 

CNN'S JOE BIDEN TOWN HALL IN MILWAUKEE: A FARCICAL HOLLOW SHOW.

ICHEOKU says reviewed the recorded video of the town hall meet to see if there is anything new or revealing. But there was really nothing weighty in it, although noticed that Joe Biden was not wearing his wedding band. He contradicted himself when he said that he will not tell his Justice Department what to do and how to run the department, but also said that he will make sure that they focus attention on white domestic extremism. He also said that there will be no defunding of the police and that there should be no jail term for drug use offenses, begging the question was it because of Hunter and will there soon be a signing of a Hunter Law? 

There were so many questions people expected the host and their audience to have asked but which were not asked. There were no questions on the rising global oil price which has seen increase in the pump price for gasoline in the country. There was no question about the jobs killing Keystone XL pipeline cancelation. There was no question on Iran's bombing in Irbil that killed an American military contractor and wounded an American soldier. There was no question on the unraveling situation in Yemen. There was no question on why he has not spoken with Israeli Benjamin Netanyahu and the King of Saudi Arabia and whether American embassy in Jerusalem will remain or be moved back to Tel Aviv? There was no question on Russia and Vladimir Putin's continuous detention of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. There was no question on Myanmar military coup and their continuous detention of Aung Su Kyi. 

There was no question on the worsening economic situation in the country and what he will do to create immediate jobs or at least to stop killing already existing ones through brash executive orders. There was no question on the bombings going off in Afghanistan and of course other global issues currently afoot. There was no mention of the nearly more than half of the country population currently freezing over, especially in Texas; and whether he has called the governor to sympathize with him and whether he will send federal assistance where needed. With the unprecedented freezing and ice, is it still a good argument to continue the narrative that there is climate change and whether global warming is still a reality? 

On issue of refugees, he said that America will keep its doors open for more and more refugees and you wonder if it is not about time America changed her focus to proactively fixing the issues that lead to these refugees, by preventing the crisis from developing instead of later opening its doors for the refugees to troop into America. For example there is restiveness currently brewing in Nigeria Africa between the various ethnic and religious groups that populate the country. One would expect America to intervene now and try to resolve the identified problems stirring the crisis, including the desire of some nationalities therein to become independent nations or truly federated units indeed. This will be a better approach, to nip the crisis in the bud before it blows up, leading to millions of more refugees needing to be sheltered in America. 

Anyway, was not expecting anything fantastic from the fake news headquarters of American media but it once again showed how their disinformation and cover up will not help America moving forward. All the issues needing answers and which are disturbing to American people were not raised, except for the coronavirus, which only produced the same rehash. It is also debatable whether he got the questions ahead of time and whether those questioners merely read prepared questions handed to them by the moderator. With the hindsight of Donna Brasile leaking debate questions to Hillary Clinton ahead of time during the 2016 democratic primary with Bernie Sanders and what the girl in Kenosha complained about being given question to ask then campaigning Joe Biden, who knows how this whole town hall exercise was stitched together. But hey, we are watching.

AWAY WITH LIZ CHENEY.

WYOMING CONGRESSWOMAN LIZ CHENEY OR PRESIDENT DONALD JOHN TRUMP, WHO IS IT GONNA BE? REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP IN WASHINGTON DC MUST CHOOSE A SIDE AS TWO CAPTAINS DO NOT SAIL A SHIP. HER CONTINUOUS MEMBERSHIP OF THE LEADERSHIP OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS UNACCEPTABLE TO MAGA NATION. #AwayWithLizCheney.

SHE IS CRAZT LIKE A FOX.

ICHEOKU says if Queen Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now setting a 9/11 type independent commission to investigate what led to the January 6th, 2021 Capitol melee, on what evidence then did her House Democrats impeach the president and trying him in the Senate for incitement of insurrection? But she rushed the impeachment just to satisfy her Democratic Party's base which demanded it due to their asinine hatred for the president. 

She did this without doing the necessarily required first thing, conduct a thorough investigation to determine what actually happened, which she is now doing, although belatedly, post her sham impeachment. ICHEOKU says speaking of the real life putting of a cart before the horse and the president was acquitted. Crazy Nancy has once again shown that she is indeed crazy for real. Imagine twice losing impeachments trials against President Donald John Trump just because she refused to do her homework by not first properly conducting necessary investigation. What a shame. It is sad.

LIZ CHENEY MUST GO FOR REPUBLICAN PARTY TO MOVE FORWARD.

ICHEOKU says Democrats impeachment managers used her own exact words in their attack of the president during their desperate impeachment trial to convict the president of a crime which he did not commit. There is no way she can remain in her leadership position in the Republican Party after providing the Democrats the ammo with which they tried to impair the president. Going forward, it is utterly impossible for her to continue in her leadership position of a party, the interest of whose majority she is at odds with. Therefore, Liz Cheney must resign her position or be removed because she no longer represents the party nor is she trusted by the majority of the party's membership. 

There is no way such a Judas Iscariot can remain in the same leadership space with the president whom she conspired to take out but failed. She took a shot at the king and missed and now she must pay the ultimate price for her treachery. She thought that she had struck the fatal blow with her impeachment vote and accompanying words of condemnation and that the president will be permanently incapacitated and forever put out of commission. There is no possible way she will be allowed to remain in the party's leadership position following what she did. So, it is either the president or Liz Cheney and the Washington DC Republican leadership must be forced to take side because Republican majority have already chosen the president over the lady from Wyoming. Republican Party's leadership must abandon their protection of Liz Cheney and follow their party majority in the battle between President Donald John Trump and Congresswoman Liz Cheney. 

A matter which have now become more urgent with the Senate's acquittal of the president which   will herald a stronger and more formidable president providing more dynamic leadership for the party. There is no compromise in this and there will be no cuddling either; it is either the president or the congresswoman as there cannot be two captains on a ship. Such a soured grape as Liz Cheney cannot be allowed to remain in the leadership rank of the party in order to avoid needless friction among their supporters and between the two of them. She expended her  aces with her impeachment and MAGA family cannot forgive her nor accept her playing any leadership role in the party. She must therefore take herself out of the way in order to make way for the president to rebuild the party into an election winning machine that will sweep the Republicans back into power in 2022 going forward. 

No political party worth its salt should tolerate such a betrayal of trust especially from one of its leaders and against the wishes of majority of its membership. That their beloved president is being hunted by the Deep State led Democrats is already too much to bear; but for an enemy within and in the person of a leader, that is simply intolerable. She took a Brutus stab at the president when she voted to impeach him and having survived, the president will come after her with vengeance to exact his pound of flesh. The party will be better off if they proactively prevent such a scenario by getting rid of Liz Cheney from the party or at least from its leadership in order to placate the president who is rightly incensed by what she did. It is wrong for a leader in the Republican Party's hierarchy to be so distanced from the wishes of the party's MAGA base that she so frontally displayed her dislike for their beloved leader and voted to impeach him. 

This is not about who Liz Cheney would rather personally see at the helm of affairs in the overall leadership of the party, but who brings home the most bacon of votes for the party as required to win elections across the board. It was very disappointing to see her two Sundays ago on Chris Wallace's FoxNews on Sunday interview still critical of the president; but when she was directly asked were she in the Senate whether she will vote to convict the president, she refused to answer the question. Instead, she said that she will wait to first see the evidence before voting either way; thus begging the question, on which evidence then did she base her decision to impeach the president or does her standards vary and sway depending on in which chamber of Congress she casts her vote. It shows that she deliberately voted to impeach the president in furtherance of a conspiracy and not that that she believed that the president committed any impeachable offense.

ICHEOKU says would have cared less how she voted were she an ordinary Republican rank and file member of the House of Representatives. But being in a leadership position, she ought to think and should have thought her actions thoroughly first, fully aware that she represents the MAGA family and that their interest comes before her personal interest, before casting her insidious vote. A leader is supposed to be selfless. How can she vote her conviction when it was obvious that the majority of the party membership love their president and did not want her to impeach the president. Where was her party loyalty? She has poisoned herself by doing what she did and allowing her to remain will only extend her poison to the party and destroy it. It is unacceptable for her to remain in the helm of affairs and were it in the Democratic Party she would have been gone from her position so long ago.

Republican Party leadership therefore must put an end to their current balancing act, trying to carry along both the president and the congresswoman. They have to read the handwriting on the wall and understand that they can only do well with President Trump and act on the wishes of his MAGA base by ditching Liz Cheney immediately. The most nauseating thing about her vote to impeach the president is that she tried to explain it away by saying that the president's tweet that Mike Pence was not courageous enough made her vote as she did. Questioning Mike Pence's courage wasn't the worst tweet ever, so what? Rioters who were already on rampage did not read the tweet and the president was charged for a speech he made before the riot not for a tweet he made during the riot. 

Anyway, it does not even matter what her explanation was, as a leader in the Republican Party, she should not have exhibited such a hostility and direct affront against the president. What message was she trying to send, that the Republican Party leadership is against the president or that she is an agent of the Deep State doing their anti Trump bidding for them. She has lost the confidence of the party and therefore must resign from her leadership position or be removed immediately, pending 2022 when she will be voted out during Wyoming primary. Such a person ought not and should not be representing the Republican Party, talkless of leading the party in any form or capacity whatsoever. #AwayWithLizCheney.
