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

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.

IF ONLY CONSERVATIVES UNDERSTAND THE POWER OF BOYCOTT.

ICHEOKU says does conservatives republicans not know that there is power in boycott or uneducated on how to wield it or even how to mount an effective threat of it. Something which has been perfected into an art by their liberal democrats counterpart. it will definitely give them much more bargaining power and a formidable voice in corporate America and they should seriously consider harnessing it. 

But unfortunately, it seems that only liberal democrats understand the awesome power of products boycott as an effective bargaining tool and they use it to their maximum advantage. The reason corporate America are always at their beck and call and usually bend over backwards to accommodate whatever demand they make in America and/or of and from them; and frequently ignores conservative republicans concerns in matters of national issues. 

Whether the numerically strength go the liberal democrats is more than their conservative republicans, to have given them the edge is somewhat debatable as there is no serious data in support. But if it is not or better still, that the two polar opposites of our political spectrum are equally matched in numbers or that the gap between them is not so wide, why then do companies and corporations defer to them more than they defer to conservative republicans. Why are these companies and corporations so beholden to them and always afraid of losing their patronage such that they react and respond quickly to meet whatever their demand each time they threaten to boycott their products. But these companies and corporations are not similarly afraid of losing conservative republicans' patronage, hence do not react or respond to their own concerns. 

Is it because they know that conservative republicans are too busy with their lives to think about boycotting any company's products? Could it be that these companies know that conservative republicans are incapable of mobilizing and organizing themselves into collectively boycotting a product? Is it because conservative republicans do not have a commanding purchasing power such that these companies can afford to lose their money and still remain viable with only liberal democrats money? Or better still, may be it is the republicanism in these conservative republicans which permits everybody to freely conduct themselves and express their opinions as they see fit. Possibly, these corporations and companies are taking advantage of it, aware that it is not in the nature of conservative republicans to start dictating to people how they should behave or conduct their lives, including what they are allowed to say or do or what products to buy or boycott. 

The companies and corporations have figured out that conservative republicans are not a threat to their bottomline hence they no longer carter to their needs or worry about what they think  anymore. They see liberal democrats as the only threat to their bottomline, hence the need to always pamper them and do whatever they demand in order to please them and prevent losing their portion of their overall profitability. This is a taking of advantage gone too far, that what conservative republicans want no longer matters to America corporate world and the reason they see them as the docile segment of the American society which they should not be afraid of. Why should Major League Baseball move their event out of Atlanta just because liberal democrats complained about Georgia's government effort to fix election fraud. But they ignored the fact that majority of their fans are conservative republicans. 

Imagine if conservative republicans were as active as their liberal democrats in boycotting products and threatening companies and corporations, will these businesses so readily threaten Republican State governments and forcing them to conform or be boycotted? Will they readily bankroll and support such liberal causes that are bent on remaking America in their own liberal utopia image. Will they always fall behind liberal policies and without a care in the world about what the conservative republicans want or desire to see in the America which they inherited from their forebears and which they will like to someday hand off to their children and children's children. But no, conservatives are a conquered or timid group and they cannot do anything to rock their bottomline.

Coca Cola is threatening Georgia and you wonder who consumes majority of their diabetes and heart trouble inducing chemical products if not conservative republicans poor rural Americans mostly in the flyover States. These people are not as health conscious as their city dwelling liberal democrats, who are into healthy living lifestyle, yoga, fitness, running and exercise, weight watching, watching what they eat, calculating how many calories they consume and how many calories they burnt from their Apple smart tech watches and other health.o.meters. Yet Coca Cola panders to them more than the conservatives who binge on junk foods and their diabetes inducing sugary drinks. 

Something is definitely wrong with the picture being painted by corporate America; so conservative republicans must find a way to force a change in their treatment. They must organize themselves into a formidable force to reckon with by learning the art of product boycott in order to gain much eluded respect from corporate America. Imagine the impact which 74 million MAGA strong boycott could make. Enough of tolerating the dismissive shabby treatment and disregard of conservative republicans by corporate America. It is about time they did something about it to awaken corporate America to the fact that they too can bite and that they are not toothless bulldog, admitted they have been sleeping for so long. Boycott is power, learn to use it conservative republicans as you too can do it.
