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.

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

#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.

GOVERNOR NEWSOM'S RECALL RESTS ON BLACK VOTERS APATHY.

ICHEOKU says it is possible, although highly unlikely, that California Governor Gavin Newsom could be recalled from office on September 14th, 2021. A lot is at stake for the woke leftist liberal partisans and they will fight to the finish to starve off his recall. California is still for the most part, a very strong leftist liberal Democratic Party state and they will do whatever it takes to deny Republicans the joy of seeing them lose another governor. With New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo gone, Governor Gavin Newsom remains their only other high profile woke governor, whose profile rose sharply during last year's coronavirus wildfire when they made President Donald John Trump the coronavirus bogey man. They will not stand and watch their remaining coronavirus hero governor gone as well. 

It is a challenge for them and they will mount a fight to the death to ensure that the governor is not recalled. A matter which is making them more insane because the person trending to succeed the governor, should the recall succeed, is someone they have successfully linked to President Donald John Trump and Trump brings the worst out of democrats. He triggers them in a very bad way and they will move heavens and earth to frustrate the recall. Unlike the 2003 Governor Gray Davis successful recall, the variables then are not present in this current recall effort. Rolling blackout was a matter which affected every Californian equally, unlike the politics of the coronavirus pandemic which created a big wedge between democrats and some republicans. 

Many democrats voted to recall Governor Davis but no democrat will vote to recall Governor Newsom. Further, the recall of Governor Davis did not have any national political factor, but Governor Newsom's recall does involve President Donald John Trump and Californian democrats react to anything and everything Trump like a bull reacts to a red flag. Democrats will therefore troop out en-masse to defend their California and their fine face Governor Governor Newsom as a rejection of President Trump. Moreover, Larry Elder or whoever else is waiting in the wing to replace the governor is no Arnold Schwarzenegger nor have his star power or   likability factor near to the "I will be back" actor, to attract crossover votes. 

The recall election will finally come down to black voters' enthusiasm and whether they came out in sufficient numbers to vote or are persuaded by the color of Larry Elders. Their turnout might be effected by their displeasure with the governor for stealing a senate seat which black people expected to retain and giving it to Hispanics. Kamala Harris' senate seat should have been given to a black person or at least to a female, since the seat has for most part been always kept by Californian women. But an unthinking Governor Newsom or rather a Governor Newsom who wanted to curry favor from  Hispanics and Latinos, decided to pawn away Kamala Harris's black senate seat to a Latino male. He hurt black people as well as the women of California, two voting blocs who might decide his fate on September 14th. If they chose to pay Governor Newsom in kind and stay out the election, he is toast.  

Hopefully, his campaign is aware of this and presently working overtime to caress and massage the bruised ego of the two voting groups and woo their votes. ICHEOKU says was particularly miffed when Governor Newsom thumbed his nose at black people of California by not appointing a black person to Kamala Harris' vacated senate seat. San Francisco black Mayor London Breed was a ready shoe-in for that senate seat. She waited excitedly as everyone else had anticipated for Governor Newsom to make that announcement appointing her to that seat. But for reasons only known to Governor Gavin Newsom, he simply ignored her and the entire black people in California, particularly those in the Bay Area of Northern California, and gave the seat to a Southern California Latino. 

Anyway, we shall see what happens on September 14th with the recall. The liberal far left having lost the other coast, with their coronavirus hero Governor Andrew Cuomo no longer in the governor's mansion in Albany, will see losing their this other coast's coronavirus hero as not an option. They will fight to retain Governor Gavin Newsom in the governor's mansion in Sacramento to avoid a double whammy, double sucker punch. It will be a very bitter pill to swallow and they will do everything and anything to avoid arriving at such a destination. ICHEOKU strongly believes that the governor will survive the recall and will make series of necessary horse trading to pacify blacks and women voting blocs of California. The wokest and most leftist liberal politics State in the union will not go red. #SayNoToRecall.
