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.

#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.

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

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: A FINAL FAREWELL.

ICHEOKU says if your doctor informs you that you have only a few weeks left to live, what would you do? How would you react? Will you be sad and sullen or hearty and cheerful? Certainly a situation without a one cap fits all reaction as everybody is different. 

Charles Krauthammer received such a heartbreaking news, but instead of diving into a pity party funk, he chose to rather take the opportunity to say his final farewell. Certainly a different reaction from one which any other lesser mortal would have made. In a style depicting a man who is fulfilled and at peace with himself and not afraid to walk on, he said:- “I leave this life with no regrets. It was a wonderful life -- full and complete with the great loves and great endeavors that make it worth living. I am sad to leave, but I leave with the knowledge that I lived it.” - Charles Krauthammer. 

ICHEOKU says he shall be missed and hopefully, he will spend whatever remains of the few next weeks which he has, to forgive everyone who has ever offended him and who he still holds grudge against. He should also make peace with himself, preparatory to meeting his maker. Just a few more short weeks to live and his life as we know it will be over, done. Life is such a cruel and mean bastard. SAD.

JAMES A. WOLFE: THE LEAKER HAS BEEN BUSTED.

ICHEOKU says he has been leaking classified information like a basket and to many journalists including his lover, Ali Watkins, and for so many months.  At last he cup was full and he has been busted; and like every enemy of State, he will be spending a long time behind bars if found guilty. His name is James A. Wolfe and he used to be the director of security for the Senate Intelligence Committee with access to every top level classified document and information.

James A. Wolfe is the mole who has been leaking classified information from inside the Trump administration. A man in charge of maintaining security of classified documents and information, ended up being the man who was leaking the same information which he was employed to and supposedly protect. ICHEOKU says a case of a rat eating the fish medallion on its neck, one would say. This is the reason most people are always skeptical of high flying women earning their position rightfully, as nobody knows who or how many people they slept with to get what they want, on their way to the top. The high flying female journalist is 26 years old and is sleeping with the 67 year old grandpa just for scoops. SAD.

Imagine such a high profile enemy within and he did what he did as part of the Deep State establishment that hates President Donald John Trump and doesn't want him to succeed. What a pitiful person. 

CHALLENGING TRUMP IN 2020 IS A WASTE OF TIME - ROMNEY.

"I think President Trump will be re-nominated by my party easily, and I think he’ll be reelected solidly in 2020. A strong economy and rising wages, including the Democrats really going out of the mainstream of American thought, will make it easier for a president who is presiding over a growing economy to win a reelection come 2020. Therefore I will not challenge his nomination but will strongly support his reelection in 2020."- Mitt Romney, speaking to his donors and supporters. 

ICHEOKU says the penguin is smart and he spoke truthfully as President Donald John Trump has no competition in America until he finishes his second term come 2024. Team MAGA has got a new member in Mitt Romney and ICHEOKU says welcome to the family.

THE KING DETHRONED!

ICHEOKU says King Lebron James was humbled right inside his home turf in Cleveland as Golden State Warriors beat him and his Cavaliers to clinch Game 3, 110 -102. ICHEOKU says a sweep is buzzing the air. ICHEOKU says congratulations to the boys from Oakland California, who were led into battle today by KD, Kevin Durant; a man standing at 6 feet 9 inches tall with a wing span of 7 feet 4 inches. Simply wonderful. It was a good game overall.

KATE SPADE SUCCUMBS TO HER DEMONS: HANGS HERSELF.

ICHEOKU says don't we all have our demons, hounding us and nibbling our heels, every step of the way and whispering crazy nonsensical into our ears all the time; trying to urge us to do stuff, from the unthinkable, to the mundane. So what eventually tripped her and forced her hand. Only the special grace of God helps us through and gives us the strength to carry on and to avoid acceding to the promptings and instigations of these demons. But with Kate, it seems they finally got the upper hand and overwhelmed her spirit and will for resistance. They forced her hands to tie a noose around her neck, using her scarf and in a moment, it was over; her fights and struggles, that is. Her neck was broken by the weight of her body pulling down from a door knob where she had hung herself. 

ICHEOKU says what is the value of life one might ask, faced with such inexplicable tragedy of someone who to many was really living it up, the American dream life. A multi millionaire clothing accessories designer, specializing in ladies handbags under the same trade name as her name, and who is worth in excess of $150 million, to just suddenly walk away from her life of privilege and took her own life. Taking a rapid descent from such a high sunshine life to manic depression that resulted to her taking her own life, is indeed a tragic cry for help that went unanswered. Her own scarf tied to her own bedroom door knob inside her Park Avenue apartment, with her neck inside it and bore the pain until it was over. It must be some serious issue of depression that will make somebody to endure such painful gruesome end, that probably stretched out to a few minutes. She was depressed and could not take it anymore, and having lost every desire to trudge on,  jumped off the deep end. 

ICHEOKU says it is yet another statement that money does not buy happiness or a good state of mind; otherwise Kate Spade made enough of it and would have still be alive today. This thing called life is indeed one crazy scary journey and only the brave ones soldier on, one foot in front of the other, one at a time; but Kate has had enough and she surrendered to her demons. May her soul now find rest. Adieu KS.

COX QUALIFIES FOR NOVEMBER BALLOT: CALIFORNIA LEANING RED?

ICHEOKU says people are definitely tired of wild eyed crazy far left liberals, who are taking the country down the deep end. In California, a swamp of these crazies, it seems that the bug of Make America Great Again has also bitten the people of the golden State as they rallied round to see a Republican governorship candidate qualify in second place and therefore eligible for the November election. 

Billionaire John Cox finished comfortably and strongly in a second place, defeating four Democrats and one other Republican, including the Latin Hope and former Los Angeles Mayor Democrat Antonio Villaraigosa. ICHEOKU says Antonio’s abysmal third place performance shows that the Hispanic takeover of California is simply a hype, otherwise they would have rallied around one of their own and see him through to the top finish. 

ICHEOKU says people are indeed tired of thousands of illegal immigrants roaming around the State, as well as millions of homeless vagrants defecating on City Streets, the Sanctuary State nonsense and also gasoline tax which has hurt driving in the State. This November, the Nancy Pelosi deep blue State might go RED. Can’t wait. Congratulations John and together, we shall help Make California Great Again.

NBA FINAL GAME 2: WARRIORS WINS AGAIN.

ICHEOKU says King Lebron James did not know what hit him and his Team Cavaliers as they surrendered two games in Oakland to the Golden State Warriors. Now they are headed back to Cleveland deficit 2 wins, to go and try to recover and reestablish their right to the NBA championship finals title. ICHEOKU says if the Warriors maintains form and puts up the stellar performance they displayed in Oakland, it will be a very tall order for King James and his boys to bounce back from their now near certain loss of the championship. That will be highly improbable and tantamount to coming back from the dead, literary speaking. 

The Warriors famed cold assassin, Steph Curry, who led the Golden State Warriors to a slaying of the boys from Cleveland 122 to 103 definitely earned the moniker as he was methodical, calculated and deft as he made pinpoint passes and tear drop three points to help his side in their routing of the Cavaliers in Game 2. It was such a “who is your daddy” game that the Warriors put up as they led the Cavaliers from start to finish; and not once, did the Cavaliers inch any closer than four points, talkless of tying or outscoring the Warriors. 

It is now to Cleveland for Game 3, next week Wednesday June 6th, 2018, 9 pm Eastern Standard Time, and hopefully King James will have an opportunity to restate his claim to the championship, and in his home turf or rather court. ICHEOKU says congratulations to the Golden State Warriors for a spectacular performance as they out paced and outscored the Cavaliers in every department, leading people to believe that the Cavaliers have not recovered and did not recover from their thrown away victory in Game 1. ICHEOKU says in keeping with a promise to make a prediction of which side will win the championship, following Game 2, ICHEOKU says the Golden State Warriors will win the championship, provided they maintain their current form and barring any major injury or serious foul trouble. Game 1 was good but Game 2 was wonderfully terrific. Go Warriors!

500 DAYS OF NON STOP ACTION: PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT.

ICHEOKU says congratulations to President Donald John Trump on his first 500 days in office. It has been one helluva bang of a time with increased employment, manufacturing, foreign policy successes, a booming economy, North Korean nuclear talks and scheduled summit; acknowledgment of Jerusalem as capital of Israel and moving the United States embassy there; as well as so many other positives recorded just within such a few space of time. 

This is despite the never ending battle being waged by the Deep State against the president; in addition to hostilities everywhere, foreign and domestic, including a tepid support from his own party, the Republican Party. But hey, one with the masses is the majority and he who God has elevated, no conspiracy can bring him down. 

ICHEOKU says a proudly deplorable for Trump, member of Team MAGA, is giddily looking forward to a Keep America Great Again reelection campaign 2023 that is an assured second term for the peoples president. Congratulations President Donald John Trump for a stellar performance so far and pray that the MAGA train keep on rolling non stop until the entire MAGA mission is fully accomplished.

IMMIGRANTS GO HOME - ITALY

ICHEOKU says newly sworn in Italian Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has told immigrants in Italy to pack up their bags and return to where they came from. According to him, Italy is for Italian people and the only way to be loved by your people is to do what they like and want. 

ICHEOKU says what a tough time which awaits those immigrants, especially those who have already been through so much, trekking through the Sahara desert and sailing in dinghies across the treacherous Mediterranean Sea; oily to now be told to prepare to return from whatever it they were escaping from or thought they had escaped from. It is a real definition of double wahallah for dead body. Too bad. SAD. 

OLUSEGUN OBASANJO: SIMPLY A SHAMELESS TROUBLE MAKER.

ICHEOKU says for a man who once told the world of Nigerians that another man who has no First School Leaving Certificate was educated enough to be president, to suddenly now do an about turn and with boldface, complain to the same Nigerians that the man he helped make president is a complete failure who is not deserving of a second term, is completely ridiculous and ludicrous.  

What an insult on the collective sensibilities of Nigerians unless Olusegun Obasanjo already sees Nigerians as a bunch of imbeciles who are incapable of processing thoughts, making inferable deductions and conducting analytical logic. Possibly too, he also believes that Nigerians are too dumb to catch him always speaking from the both sides of his mouth; and are afflicted with a short memory syndrome, which make them incapable of recollecting the immediate past. Hence they cannot remember nor recall the role which he personally played in engineering the election of President Muhammadu Buhari, whose presidency, he now describes as a failure. A matter made worse because he failed or rather refused to acknowledge his role in bringing it about and also failed to apologize for doing it. This is a presidency that portended failure right from the start, but Olusegun Obasanjo went ahead anyway to help foist it on Nigeria, regardless.  

Olusegun Obasanjo, if he wants Nigerians to take his current prattling seriously, must first make a mea culpa for the damage which he inflicted on Nigerians with the election of President Muhammadu Buhari. He must apologize for his complicity in rehabilitating a nearly perpetual presidential reject, who failed on three previous tries, and putting such a proven mediocrity in Aso Rock. Thereafter, Obasanjo can regain his moral authority bona fides to address Nigerians on Buhari's alleged failed presidency; and the need to deny him an opportunity at a second term. But unfortunately, Obasanjo knows that he is addressing a motley crew, who like William Shakespeare's plebeians in Julius Caesar, only knows how to chorus AYE. Obasanjo also possibly believes that Nigerians lack the mental curiosity to question his motive or ask themselves what exactly in fact is actually driving the latest Obasanjo's "Buhari Must GO" pistons. 

As between him, Babangida and Buhari, they have been in power all together for over 33 years of Nigeria's 55 years of existence and the country is in such a dire straits. This man, Olusegun Obasanjo is responsible for the most part; yet some pathetic Nigerians are still clamoring for him and listening to him for guidance about moving the country forward. Just ask yourself how possible is it that the very root cause of the country's retardation is capable of being the solution for a progressive trajectory of the same country which he helped destroy. Something definitely does not sound nor seem right with the picture, hence Nigerians must be wary of the current Olusegun Obasanjo's shenanigans. ICHEOKU says it is indeed highly regrettable that Nigerians are this gullible and infantile in their adoration and adulation of the man from Ota, the notorious Ota Deity. Fie Obasanjo.

A letter from North Korea

A LETTER FROM NORTH KOREA: DELIVERED.
ICHEOKU says hopefully the world will soon see result from the increased flurry of activities between Washington DC and Pyongyang.

SAMANTHA BEE: APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED.

ICHEOKU says we are not taking it any more and we are not going to take it and we will not accept the disparaging, obscene and very offensive remark of the crazed out, wild eyed, feminist comedian Samantha Bee. Therefore, we reject her so called apology because it was not contrite enough and her conduct was deliberative. Her offensive statement was intentionally made and she had all the time to think it through before she made it, but went ahead to make it anyway. 

It was not an accidental guffaw from an unguarded gushing mouth, neither was the meaning lost on her. No, it it was a well thought out word, meant for a shock value but which bombed badly. She wanted a shock value and she proceeded to announce to the world how bitchy she is and that Samantha Bee is a nasty woman; indeed very nasty. She knew exactly what she did and wanted to do as she intended the outcome and she set about to do it and did it anyway. The show was not a live show, it was prerecorded and edited for content few days before it was aired. So if Samantha Bee or her producers did not desire the outcome, they had all the time to have nipped it in the bud, at least during the edit; but they chose to proceed anyway. 

That those restless vagina-hats wearing crazies are not protesting the disparaging remark against a fellow woman and demanding for the head of Samantha Bee on a platter, is yet another glaring evidence of the double standards of media/Hollywood establishment. Suddenly those supposed women loving and women honor protecting feminists dogs in heat are no longer loving women nor protecting their honor. It is only when one of their own ideological disciple is impacted that the issue of womanhood and feminism springs to the fore; but not when other women who think differently are the victims. 

ICHEOKU says like Roseanne Barr like Samantha Bee; so it is either she is summarily, equally cancelled and taken off the air or they should bring back our dear Roseanne, the Roseanne, which real Americans are watching and still want to watch. There should be no more one sided censorship or the American people will push for the boycott of such television stations carrying Samantha Bee.


ICHEOKU says to refuse to fire Samantha Bee is to make light of a word which has been described as the worst way to demean a woman. The word has also been described as a very profane way to refer to a mean and disagreeable woman; a degrading and disparaging term for a woman who is extremely disliked by the user of the word; a vulgar slang which is strongly tabooed and censored; used with a disparaging intent to impugn and which is highly insulting and demeaning. So, of all the words that could be used to describe a woman or insult her, the word CUNT has been described as one of the most hateful and powerful example of a verbal abuse known in English language. This is a word which connotes unpleasantness and stupidity; and it is also obscene and highly offensive. 

ICHEOKU says what other thing will have to happen or take place before the management of her TBS platform realizes the enormity of the issue and fire her immediately or is it okay and now acceptable to make other people, the butt of such cruel joke.Shouldn't these conservative female victims enjoy the same protection normally reserved for the liberal women on the other side of the isle? ICHEOKU says how would the liberals have felt had the Obama girls, Malia and Shasha, been so described or referred to. Samantha Bee is actually the angry, nasty and sex-deprived CUNT herself and she looks extremely sexless and mean spirited, the reason she comes across as not a happy person. She says she is a nasty woman and ICHEOKU agrees that only a nasty person runs her mouth in the manner in which she has found herself now tendering an apology, calling an overachieving woman, a mere body part. The solution might be to force the issue; if the television station will not do the needful and fire her, a boycott of her nasty third rate comedy show might do the magic; afterall there is no fun in such dry bones. What a pitiful person Samantha Bee is.

RUSSIAN JOURNALIST FAKED MURDER: SIMPLY PATHETIC.

ICHEOKU says not even the fake news CNN would have pulled off this farcical nonsense, albeit so convincingly that thousands, if not millions, of world media, including ICHEOKU wrote about the story. To so deceive the world with such a heinous and macabre staged incident, especially one implicating a sovereign neighboring nation Russia and their president Vladimir Putin, Ukraine overreached itself. This is the height of recklessness and a needless propaganda attack, capable of generating an international incident. 

ICHEOKU says what Ukrainian authorities did is condemnable and should be condemned by everyone, especially those concerned with objectivity and fairness and the need to always speak truthfully, especially in this days of so much fake news that it is hard to distinguish which news is real and which one is fake. ICHEOKU hereby condemn Ukrainian authority and Arkady Babchenko for perpetrating and partaking in this extremely provocative evil plot.

By lying to the world about a murder which never took place and the alleged victim being still alive, this fake news now makes Ukraine an official State sponsor of fake news. They owe the world, especially Russians and their President Vladimir Putin, an unreserved apology for maligning him and making him look bad before the civilized world. ICHEOKU had earlier written to condemn Vladimir Putin for this barbaric act and hereby apologizes for same, as the information available then which elicited the position taken then has now been proven to be false. 

Whatever is going on and whoever is trying to goad Russia into war should thread carefully because sometimes, what someone wishes for, often does not turn out to be exactly what was primarily desired. First was the Syrian gas attack in Douma; then the Skripals nerve agent attack in Salisbury England and now this Ukrainian nonsense in Kiev. Enough of all these hair-raising needless and avoidable provocations. Ukraine should be made to offer a public apology and possibly sanctioned for creating such a needless tension in a world which is already bursting at the seams, nearing a boiling over and which can use some real peace presently. 

What Ukraine achieved by the fake murder is beyond ICHEOKU's comprehension, because with the revelation that the Arkady Babchenko is still alive, his would be assassins will still try to track him down and eventually whack him. So what use was this hoax afterall. There is a reason people do not shout lion, lion, all the time because eventually when the real lion appears and is devouring the livestock, would be helpers would just dismiss the shout as the usual false alarm. So what if he is finally killed as is most likely to be the case now, at least to avenge the maligning, how would Ukraine explain it and expect the world to believe it and extend sympathy.

Simply put, it is just an inexplicable and inexcusable stunt, so shockingly convulsing that the whole incident is just nuts, stupidity to the highest order. And for the journalist, Arkady Babchenko, he is a pitiful denigrate to have signed up on the plot; especially without even disclosing it to his wife. What if she has had a heart attack watching her husband in his own blood on the floor in their home? The incident  is, as Susan Henchard,  wife of Michael Henchard in Mayor of Casterbridge would say, a joke is a joke but once  too often. It is as nauseating as it is tasteless; and it rather, further complicated an already worsening situational relationship between President Vladimir Putin's Russia and Ukraine. It is definitely in bad taste, no excuses or justification whatsoever.

ROSEANNE GOOFED: RACIST RANT AXES SHOW.

ICHEOKU says they did not waste any time axing the show which they regretted ever bringing back because it showed President Donald John Trump in good light and for once a Hollywood produced revamped show that is about conservative America grabbed instant success amongst Americans. And yes, ICHEOKU is emphatic that Roseanne did not produce the effect which the producers had anticipated and they have been looking for an excuse to axe it. Unfortunately the show's chief personality, Roseanne Barr, by her tweet, handed them the hatchet with which they hacked it to death, case closed.  

ICHEOKU says this will not be the first time a television personality or celebrity ever goofed on air or on any of the social media, including Twitter. Most times, their Network or platform will demand that they apologize and that will usually be the end of the matter. Sometimes too, the person could be suspended for a few weeks or asked to make atonement such as paying fine or undertaking a racially sensitive training or class. But not with Roseanne Barr, whose show, similarly named after her, was summarily shoved away; her show canceled; with her agents equally dropping her, and you wonder what is it exactly that she did or said that has not been done or said before to warrant such an instant severe action. The only plausible explanation is that ABC saw an opportunity to lean on to cancel a show which they would have since canceled but for fear of backlash. Now, they can conveniently use what was tweeted to finally achieve a set out objective. 

ICHEOKU blames Roseanne Barr for not being aware that she has a bulls-eye targeted on her back for being a President Donald John Trump's supporter amidst all the nastiness of the time, especially coming from the Hollywood elite. She goofed big time and it is regrettable; but it does not rise to the level of canceling a show without even considering other extenuating circumstances, including tens of actors and actresses as well as writers and other stage hands who earn their living working on the show. ICHEOKU is not holding brief for her or the show, only that the punishment does not fit the crime. It is excessive and it is exhibition of double standards with heavily anti conservative and anti President Donald John Trump bias. So what if Valerie Jarret was called names, which black person has not been called names before in a racist American society. Even the former President Barack Hussein Obama has been severally called a monkey, Curious George, to boot. 

But the underlying reason for the summarily cancellation is the person who was disparaged, a former Obama's Hench-woman.  Obama's insider connection to the Hollywood elite may have also played a role in the swift severe punishment of Roseanne Barr by canceling the show. It also did not go unnoticed that ABC Entertainment President Channing Dungey, who pulled the plug, is herself a black woman and you add one and one together, and you wonder if there is more to the cancellation than meets the eye. Here is a show depicting white American Mid-belt family struggles and which projects President Donald John Trump to the nation in good light, by a fervent supporter of the president. She made a racist comment on Twitter and you have the right combination of forces to finally have her axed. Comics say a lot of stuff all the time but why Roseanne's own statement was considered so opprobrious that it must be summarily canceled is the one million dollar question here, judging that Joy Beher has said some nasty things about many people, including Christians as well as other people too. 


What is so abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with ABC values that they decided to cancel the show immediately, one may ask? Why did ABC not ask for her to apologize, or suspend her for few shows or even deduct money from her pay as fine and donate the money to any activist group fighting for social causes like the NAACP for awareness programs. But no, the show must be killed off pronto because it is portraying President Donald John Trump in good light. Unfortunately, Disney's CEO Bob Iger, instead of intervening and overruling the Entertainment President, just concurred immediately that there was only one thing to do here and that was the right thing. How about the audience who are glued to Roseanne? How about the actors and actress and stage hands working on the show? They don't seem to matter as they are disposable American deplorables and you wonder if ABC has now set a precedent in stone or daring Roseanne fans as well as conservative Americans to change the channel. 

Muslim brotherhood plus Planet of the Apes did not have a baby named Valerie Jarret, so why literally make a mountain out of the little molehill. Roseanne has already apologized for making a bad joke; but it was not enough simply because ABC has been lying in wait, lurking and waiting for an opportunity to strike and it was handed to them on a platter. White men have been the butt of so many racist jokes; ditto First Lady Melania Trump as well as the president himself; Christians have not been spared either; neither have millions of hardworking men and women of America who earn their living with their two hands, including Walmart shoppers and NASCAR fans. Black people too have been joked about; but Muslim brotherhood was too sensitive for the Middle Eastern investors of Disney, the parent owner of ABC and the sledge hammer has to come out.

Anyway, Roseanne Barr will be just fine; she will survive and the country too will live; and life as we know it will go on. Happily, she has, in the manner of Evita Peron, don't cry for me Argentina, tweeted "Don't feel sorry for me Guys."  ICHEOKU says that's comforting and we will try not to; admitted the show will be missed and a lot of good people will be left without a job, however momentarily. So long Roseanne.

ARKADY BABCHENKO: RUSSIA CONTINUES TO KILL HER CITIZENS

ARKADY BABCHENKO: RUSSIA CONTINUES TO KILL HER CITIZENS.
ICHEOKU says he was lawyer turned journalist, critical of Vladimir Putin's Kremlin and now they gunned him down inside his apartment in Kiev Ukraine where he was living on a self exile. ICHEOKU says Russia is gradually turning into a third world country where petty dictators hold sway and breathe obedience to a cowered citizens. may his soul now rest. Adieu Arkady.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY 2018.


ICHEOKU says thank you for your sacrifice American war dead. We honor your sacrifice. Happy Memorial Day America!

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY AMERICA: LETS REMEMBER THEIR SACRIFICE.

ICHEOKU says they were selfless and they so loved this country that they paid the ultimate price so that we shall enjoy the freedom we have. On this Memorial Day, May 28, 2018, lets honor the heroes who made it possible, the men and women who proudly wore the uniforms and defended our freedom but who are no longer here with us. May their souls continue to rest in peace. ICHEOKU says thank you American war dead, for your service and sacrifice. Happy Memorial Day America!
