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.

JUST THE FACT.

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.

NO IMPEACHMENT FOR CUOMO, HE IS "NO LONGER IN OFFICE": HOW ABOUT TRUMP?

ICHEOKU says the New York State Assembly said that it is suspending or rather dropping the impeachment investigation against Governor Andrew Cuomo because it is no longer necessary to impeach a governor who has resigned his office and that the legislature does not have authority to impeach an official who no longer holds office. According to them, the constitution of New York State bars impeaching a governor who has already resigned from office; and the language of the constitution did not contemplate impeachment when removal from office is not the central issue for determination. 

Therefore, the impeachment inquiry against Governor Andrew Cuomo is no longer needed and will be dropped because the purpose of impeachment is "to determine whether or not he should remain in office", a matter which is now moot and overtaken by his resignation. The Democrats running the place now tells us that New York State's constitution does not allow the legislature to impeach an elected official who is no longer in office. Yet, the same people want us to believe that the United States of America's constitution is somewhat different from New York State's constitution in matters of impeachment and "specifically" allows the impeachment of a president who is no longer in office. Definitely interesting. 

ICHEOKU says, it is yet another clear example of the double standards of the Democratic Party's liberal left, making it up as they go, and as it suits their objective. According to Senator Kennedy of Louisiana, these people will have no standard at all if it wasn't for double standards. Now, that Governor Andrew Cuomo has resigned his office, probably all his sins are immaculately washed away and everything is now honky dory. But President Donald John Trump served out his first term in office and was no longer in office when the same Democratic Party still impeached him just because they can (could). It is very sad to watch the Democratic Party invent, choose and pick, and selectively apply laws as it suits their political machination. 

As every unbiased person knows, impeachment operates only as a disqualification tool against an official from remaining in office and also in more egregious cases, sometimes bans the said official from holding any future office. It therefore necessary follows that once an office holder who is impeachment-targeted is no longer in office, either by resignation or completion of term, that impeachment loses its sting. This is right with Governor Andrew Cuomo as presently correctly determined by the New York legislature; and it was also right with then President Donald John Trump. The only difference was that the Democratic Party decided to weaponize impeachment against the later just to damage him politically. It is wrong to use laws for political purposes and/or as a means to specifically achieve a desired end, regardless. 

Anyway, ICHEOKU says will stay tuned to see how the Cuomo scandal eventually finally and fully resolves itself. It is likely that his resignation will be the magic silver bullet which will take care of all business since the primary objective of the gang up against him was to prevent him from challenging Joe Biden in the Democratic Party's primaries in 2024. They have harpooned him and his recovering from the grave wound will be difficult, if not impossible. Now that the book of impeachment, suspended or forever, has been closed, lets see if all other intended actions against him will be similarly put on ice, shelved. It is the Democratic Party machine and they do not show mercy in dispensing their poisonous brew. Governor Andrew Cuomo drank it and have gone into coma and the prognosis is not good.
