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

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

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

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

WORDS ON MARBLE.

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.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


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.

QANON SHAMA'S 41 MONTHS: REPUBLICANS ARE BEING TAUGHT HOW TO WIELD POWER.

ICHEOKU says strongly believes that majority of those January 6th revelers who went into the Capitol did not know nor understood that they were committing a criminal trespass when they badged into the building. If they knew, many of them would not have dared. But the euphoria of the day and need for joining the bandwagon of the Jones catapulted many of them into the building, falsely believing that they are taking their country back by so doing. It was a spur of the moment reaction for many of them who just flowed with the crowd and found themselves in deep doodle, facing grievous consequences for their action on that fateful January 6th day. 

They went to a Save America Rally to watch their beloved President Donald John Trump speak to them, the MAGA-nation family; only to end up on the wrong side of the law with many in lengthy detention and incarceration. It was pure unbridled exuberance at best, otherwise who posts their criminal acts or behavior on social media for the law enforcement to have it so easy, identifying them, picking them up and locking them up in jails preparatory to prosecution. Now they are being increasingly convicted and getting lengthy prison sentences for what they thought was just a fun protest inside the peoples house, not knowing that it will attract consequences of such immense magnitude. 

Unfortunately for them, Democrats are in power and they have an ax to grind with them for being supporters of their most hated and disliked foe, former President Donald John Trump. Put in another way, they are pawns in the chessboard of two mortal political enemies and are being disposed as pleases the party with the upper hand. Democrats are very unforgiving and they show no mercy; especially where such viciousness will put fear of God or rather fear of Democrats into the cranial confines of the opposing party and it's supporters. Like Great White, they smelled blood in the water and they are not letting up until they put everyone away who participated in the January 6th protest in Washington DC. 

We all witnessed the destructive riots and mayhem perpetrated by Democratic Party's supporters, the Black Lives Matter and their ANTIFA partners during the summer of 2020. Yet their Democratic Party leaders dismissively explained them away as "some people will do what some people will do"; and that practically for most part, was the end of the matter. None of those rioters who burnt down American cities, looted shops and corner stores, destroyed so much properties running into billions have been arrested, detained, prosecuted nor sent away to a long prison sentence to the best of ICHEOKU's knowledge. But look at carnival barker Shama 41 months prison sentence for wearing animal skin and horns into the Capitol.

It was the same way Ilhan Omar dismissed Al Qaeda masterminded 9/11 attack as "some people did something"; and even her illegal immigration, marrying her blood brother for the sake of getting Green Card, a crime for regular Joe and Jane, has also been swept under the rug.  

Steve Bannon too is also finding out, rather with rude shock, how vicious the Democrats are as they have suddenly forgotten their own mantra during the LOCK HER UP feverishness when they admonished that partisans should not lock up their political opponents, because to do so will not be undemocratic and akin to what obtains in Ukraine and other not too democratic countries where oppositions are not tolerated nor allowed to thrive. President Donald John Trump was pressured into not pursuing his campaign debate response to Hillary Clinton's chiding: "that's why you are not the president" to which which then candidate Donald John Trump replied that if he were, "you will be in jail." 

So, how about Steve Bannon or does the same "political opponent's protective shield" which protected Hillary Clinton from being LOCKED UP not avail him simply because he is not a politician or a Democrat or a Clinton? How about James Comey who severally thumbed his nose at Congress or the other fella, the former second in command at the FBI who literally gave false testimony to the Congress? They were not pursued because the Republicans who were in power then had no backbone and cared a lot about the feelings of their Democratic colleagues. But today, see what is going on as the Democrats have thrown out of the window such courtesy and are going full throttle to drop sledgehammers on the heads of their identified and identifiable political enemies and doing it with glee. 

Look at the California eyeballs, bushbaby Adams Schiff who severally swore on national television that he has evidence of President Donald John Trump complicity in crimes including the Russian Collusion-Gate. He is still heading the intelligence committee despite having not produced the claimed evidence and the allegations being debunked with such a finality that it shameful. Then enter Eric Swalwell and his Chinese bed warming spy, but there is no consequences whatsoever because they are Democrats and they protect one another. Imagine if it was a Republican that was caught so compromised, the hell which the Democrats would have raised and continue to stir until he was forced out or at least removed from the Intelligence committee. 

Then enter Republican Congressman from Arizona Paul Gosar who has now become the first Congress person to be ever censured and just for a cartoon. A cartoon now attracts the same wrath as sexual molestation of Monica Lewinsky. But those Muslim extremists in France are being excoriated for demanding a similar treatment to those cartoonists in Charlie Hebdo  for depicting their prophet Mohammed in a light not so favorable in their Islamic faith. So why would cartooning New York effant terrible Alexandria Ocasio Cortez be punishable, but cartooning Islamic Prophet Mohammed be ok? Does it now mean that AOC is now more important than Islamic Prophet Mohammed in the eyes of the Democratic Party? 

Former President Donald John Trump has been depicted in worse light, including his severed head being held in the hands of bloody knucklehead Kathy Griffen. But it is the Democrats and they show no mercy and sometimes go extra mile to just bend it like Beckham in order to achieve their desired objective. It does not matter the means, only the end is in their tunnel vision. They are still searching and fishing, working overtime to nail President Donald John Trump in order to stop him in 2024 by all means necessarily possible. It is this operation stop him in 2024 that all the investigations are about as they are desperately searching for something to stick to him as a disqualifying stain because they have no potential candidate to take him on in 2024. 

The saddest part of their escapade is that Republicans are not fighting back, at least not as strongly as expected; that even Lindsay Graham of late has gone radio silent. Why Republicans are this way is beyond ICHEOKU's comprehension, but it sure does not give voters a reason to keep on sticking with them when they cannot even fight to defend their supporters. Imagine if it was Republican supporters that burnt down American cities last summer 2020 what the Democrats would have done to them or at least called and demanded and insisted to be done to them. ICHEOKU says must give it the Democrats, their tenacity is very impressive and they have mastered the art of real politicking as a take no prisoner pastime. 

The same Democrats who shouted 25th Amendment just because then President Donald John Trump mispronounced some names have now gone silent, faced with President Joe Biden obvious depreciation and degenerative status. So, why is nobody talking about invoking the 25th Amendment now, including some Republicans who many supporters expected to push the issue to the fore and possibly force the issue. One mention is not nor ever enough. They should be like their Democratic counterpart and take a page from them by clamping their teeth on such issues without letting go until something happens. Why not return the favor back to the democrats, one would ask?

Everywhere you look, the story is the same thing and you wonder whether Republicans will ever graduate from the school of hard knock politics controlled by the Democrats and start fighting bare knuckles like them. It recalls the sad episodes in the final months of President Donald John Trump in office before the election when he literally begged his own supposed party member Mitch McConnell to sign off on the two thousand stimulus payment to Americans, but the turtle refused. The Democrats said they will pay it and they won and they paid it. 

ICHEOKU says does not really know what it will take to revamp the Republican Party and make it more competitive. May be it is about time a third party is formed, a MAGA PARTY; and force a final rebranding of the Republican Party. But no voter or supporter of the Republican Party watching what is currently going on in the President Joe Biden administration who does not wish that the Republicans pay closer attention on how power is wield when given. Imagine if President Donald John Trump was a Democrat with his back heavily protected, guarded and shielded by an impermeable Democratic support wall, the things he would have accomplished  for America. But members of his own Republican Party are some of his worst enemies and detractors, and they worked overtime to cut him down. It is sad.
