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

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.

BUILT FOR BATTLE AND NOT GOING ANYWHERE - MATT GAETZ.

ICHEOKU says totally backs and supports Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz in his resolve not to surrender to the cancel culture seeking to cancel his legislative presence in Washington DC. They feel threatened by his ever growing effectiveness and towering stature in MAGA nation and they are desperate to cut him down to size, effective immediately and/or even kill him off politically, for good. So, it is good that the political firebrand is fighting back, will not resign and will not cower down and beg for mercy before his traducers.

ICHEOKU says the whole shenanigan might be a political hit job orchestrated by his detractors, including some from Wyoming who are out to get him because he is taking on Liz Cheney, the political scion of one of their political icon, Dick Cheney. It is politics and everything is fair game in politics and his current tribulation might as well be politically related too. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo did not go anywhere, California Congressman Eric Swalwell did not go anywhere and South Carolina Governor Northam did not go anywhere either, so why should Matt Gaetz go anywhere? If none of these Democrats went anywhere following the allegations against them, it is unfair therefore for Matt Gaetz to go anywhere since what he is facing is still mere allegation, which has not been proved yet. Therefore, it will be presumptuous to demand that he resign his membership of the United States Congress now as that will be abdicating his responsibilities owed to the Florida people who elected him to Congress. 

Everyone must take a chill pill and allow the authorities to complete their investigation into what he allegedly did. If and when he is found guilty of the alleged, then it will be time to call for his resignation, indictment and prosecution. But until then, all the hollering of resignation is mere hot air which the Congressman should continue to ignore and not treat them as relevant enough to force his resignation. It is in the same vein that ICHEOKU has been defending the right of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo not to yield to the #MeToo nut jobs and to stay in office as he committed no crime to warrant his resignation. Allegations are what they are, allegations; but they are not evidence of a crime. So, until they are proved, people accused of anything are victims who equally deserve the protection of the law and the shielding of the public. Matt Gaetz and Governor Andrew Cuomo therefore remain innocent until then and for that long will ICHEOKU remain their defender in chief and unapologetically too.

It is obvious that some people want both men out of the way: Governor Cuomo in order to clear the way for the 2024 Democratic Party's presidential primaries which his participation will make it much harder for their preferred candidate to secure the ticket. Matt Gaetz on the other hand, possibly because of his rising profile in the Republican Party and his ardent support of President Donald John Trump. They want to punish him for his loyalty to the president and to preemptively end his very promising future prospect in the Republican Party. It is also possible that there is the Cheney factor out of Wyoming in play here as well, with some very powerful people taking a revenge on him, on behalf of the powerful Dick Cheney political family, for daring to take a stab at their Liz Cheney by asking her to step aside. 

These people could have said to themselves, who the heck is this newbie politician from Florida, who is rising so fast in the Republican Party and now feels that he is such a big shot to take on the Dick Cheney family and decided to take him out first. Anything could be why the hound dogs were released on him to force him to retreat and back off or better still, crush him. Conversely, he may be guilty as well; but until the investigation is completed, ICHEOKU will remain on the side of caution as both men enjoy the benefit of doubt as every American is entitled under the constitution, innocent until proven guilty. Therefore, Governor Cuomo and Congressman Matt Gaetz are innocent and should be left alone to continue discharging the duties for which they were elected by their people. They should not resign but fight on and ICHEOKU unreservedly supports them. It is a good politics to never surrender the people's mandate to cancel culture.
