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.

"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.

IMPEACHMENT HEARING DAY 2: STILL NO CASE MADE AGAINST THE PRESIDENT.

ICHEOKU says the Democrats' third witness, Marie Yovanovitch, had the entire Day 2 of the impeachment inquiry hearing to herself, but unfortunately for the Democrats, she could still not make a case for them on the impeachment of the president. In fact, she somewhat fully exonerated the president when she confirmed that the president did not take bribe nor committed any other crimes; and you wonder why the fruitless waste of time and resources is still going on. 

It is sad and it is disgustingly a bewilderment that Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi chose to end her storied political legacy, two time Speaker of the House of Representatives, in this sordid manner. She falsely accused the president of a crime and couldn't prove it; and still wants to impeach the president for it  ICHEOKU says impeach the president for what; for doing his job for which he was elected by executing the functions of his office. It is simply incredible what the Democrats under the leadership of Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi in this session has become. Rabid dogs which barks and bites at anything that moves or has a shape or form, regardless. 

ICHEOKU says why does Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to end her political career with such nastiness and falsehood against the president, one may ask. She is so obsessed with harming the Trump's presidency that she bypassed the natural impeachment committee of the House of Representatives, headed by Jerry Nadler and handpicked her hatchet man Adam Schiff to deliver the head of the presidency of President Donald John Trump on a platter. But whether Adam Schiff is doing a good job carrying out his Nancy Pelosi assigned task is but anyone's guess. So far, he is failing and there is no prospect of his succeeding in proving and establishing a crime which was not committed. 

Adam Schiff is one such creepy fella that seeks to always insert his hatred and disdain for the president into the impeachment inquiry hearing. Several times in the 2nd day hearing, did he gavel the Republicans out of their questioning of the witness. He came across as being somewhat being very rude, harsh and mean to Republican Congress woman from New York's District 23, Elise Stefanik; as he repeatedly refused and prevented her from asking questions tot he witness. Even when speaking times were yielded to her by ranking member Nunes, Adam Schiff still disrespectfully prevented her from using such time to ask the witness some questions. His interruptions and refusals to allow Elise to ask some questions to the witness was so much that it seemed personal and you wonder if there was some harassment going on. 

As he did with the wrongly reading of the telephone transcript in the House's committee hearing, Adam Schiff, once again mischaracterized the president's tweet as witness intimidation by deliberately and mischievously leaving out the elucidating portion of it. However, Marie Yovanovitch admitted that the president's tweets will not deter her from continuing to carry on with her job, which conclusively put to rest the assertion by the Democrats and Adam Schiff that the tweet was threatening. Also one wonders whether the tweet can still qualified to be called a threat and witness intimidation, when the supposed "victim" and subject of the tweet was not even aware of the supposedly intimidating tweet, until Adam Schiff read her in on the tweet. 

The witness Marie Yovanovitch held herself well and is in every material particular, was a good witness; only that her assigned task was rather too challenging; she was asked to help make a case against the president when none existed. ICHEOKU says except for her somewhat expression of feelings of entitlement to the American ambassadorship in Ukraine, she safely passed as a credible and believable witness. But unfortunately for her, only the president has the plenary power, vested by the constitution, to post and recall ambassadors to United States foreign missions. She happens to be just one in several hundreds and her diplomatic service is not a right, but a privilege which is very much dependent on the president's goodwill. Today, the president can hire and posts you to wherever his hearts desires and tomorrow, he can just tell you that 'You're fired', case closed. 

Also, as a much touted anti corruption ambassador, Marie Yovanovicth did not or rather failed to establish that her supposed credentials when she was in Ukraine. It was during her time there that the former Ukrainian President ran a very corrupt government; it was also during the same period that the people of Ukraine rose up against the corrupt president and voted him out of office. She also did not know or looked the other way as Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden milked Ukrainian Burisma of several hundreds of thousands of dollars; and you wonder how her anti corruption gravitas was honed in and earned if she couldn't and did not nip any of these plus more in the bud. She also whined about the unceremonious nature of her recall from Kiev, to which ICHEOKU retorts that ambassadors are not entitled to a cerebrated with fanfare recall, especially not by the president under whose goodwill they serve. 

Anyway, the bottom line is that the president did not commit any crime, whether quid pro quo or bribery; and he is in charge of America's foreign policy direction. Also, like Obama did by appointing George Mitchell as his Middle East peace envoy, every president reserves the right to periodically go outside the usual channels of the State Department to delegate a trusted outsider, as an ambassador plenipotentiary, for a specific task or to go on a special one-time mission for him and his government. Therefore, the president did nothing wrong in sending Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine on a mission, as his special envoy of the president  with a specific assignment and it does not matter how Adam Schiff prefers to feel about, contour or color it, regardless. 

As America awaits other future witnesses which Adam Schiff may decide to bring forth, the fact of the matter is that he who is innocent is not afraid of any accusation. President Donald John Trump did nothing wrong in how he decided to proceed and pursue America's foreign relationship with Ukraine. The president has absolute right to direct America's foreign policy objective and concomitant to it, is the right to send and recall ambassadors to America's foreign missions, at will. The president also did not demand nor give or receive bribe from Ukraine or any other country or person or company for that matter. Also, unlike Joe Biden, the president did not threaten any country, including Ukraine, with do what I told you or it is game up for your interests. The witch hunt is real, but it has become a case of the harder they come, the harder they fall, with the president.  This current impeachment nonsense against the president, will also fail. 

At the end, only Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi will have her decades of career in politics sullied with the baseless and thoughtless impeachment of the president, which she should have avoided at all cost, but caved in to the many witches and wizards in the coven of the Democratic Party, who held the sword of Damocles over her neck to force her into this woeful path which is now being traveled. It is unfortunate and it is pitiful what Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi has allowed to go on in her House of Representatives. If this is an indicator of how not to run a peoples elected House of Representatives, no country should have a House of Representatives, including America. Sad.
