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

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.

MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

JOE BIDEN TAKES A KNEE ON AIR FORCE ONE STAIRS: THREE TIMES TOO MANY.

ICHEOKU says it could have been worse as he could have easily hit his head on a hard surface and that would have been it. But thankfully, only that Joe Biden fell three times while climbing the stairs of Air-force One is the thing being talked about. Imagine what it could have been if the news was that the leader of the free world is in coma following a fall and how that would have shaken the world, especially Americans. 

But to God be the glory that only an Saturday Night Live's joke came out of it, assuming those liberal nut jobs who write the SNL skits would ever summon the courage to start poking fun at Joe Biden. It is also noteworthy and commendable that he was able to get back up entirely on his own strength, especially after falling down three times. ICHEOKU also admired that he soldiered on with a straight poker face and completed the rest of the stairs and then still turned back to give a salute. That was courage in full display there and he had no shame about it, which portrayed him as human. Nicely weathered.

ICHEOKU says imagine if it was President Donald John Trump that took such tumbling down, what the fake news media hogs would have made of him, including making non stop jokes about him and even questioning if it was not past time 25th Amendment is invoked to save America from such disaster, with some of them wishing he had hit his head on the railing and fallen into coma as a result. Anyway, it is Joe Biden that fell down severally and that is what this article is all about. 

Luckily for his dogs too, none of them was with him during his falls to take the blame for tripping him this time and of course, he was not coming out of the shower but was just ascending the steps to Air-Force One. The falls were captured on video and it showed that Joe Biden was entirely on his own, unaccompanied and unencumbered as he made his way up. A matter made worse because it came barely one day after Russia Vladimir Putin challenged Joe Biden to a live conference and you wonder how Joe Biden would have fared with a debate if he cannot safely climb ordinary steps without tripping and three times. 

Going forward, the Air Force should consider modifying the stairway by converting it to an escalator or even start using a mobile lift to easily take him up and down Air-Force One. They should  totally dispense with the need for such a mentally fatigued and physically feeble old man laboring up and down the nearly two stories high stairs on his own very weak strength and cognitive impairment. Hopefully too, White House will not ban reporters and photographers from covering Joe Biden's future climb of Air-Force One and make it impossible to ever capture such a horrifying moment as played out before the eyes of the world, especially American people who must be wondering by now what could come next or eventually become of the fella who is occupying their White House. 

It was not a good sight to behold seeing an American leader and supposed leader of the free world take such tumbling down right to his knees. It is a harbinger of things to come and diminishes America's standing and perception in the world. The calculation must be if their leader could not climb ordinary steps, what else must be ailing America including acute cancel culture Wokesim which is eating deeply into its body fabric. But instead of addressing his  underlying age problems, they are busy once again making excuses for him, including that he is  not the only person to fall down on Air-Force One stairs; and that Gerald Ford and Barack Obama did. 

But hey, ICHEOKU is watching alongside millions of other eagle-eyed enthusiasts who are keenly observing what is unfolding before our eyes as it appertains to the occupant of the White House. Hopefully it is not a prelude to his finally deciding to move back to be with his dogs in Delaware after determining that he can no longer continue with the job. Whatever happens going forward, at least America momentarily dodged the bullet for now and prays that nothing disastrous will be forced on it during the pendency of this administration. It was so sad to watch.
