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.

RECRUIT 50 MILLION YOUTHS INTO THE ARMY - BOLA TINUBU.

ICHEOKU says “Recruit 50 million youths into the army to battle insecurity” should  automatically disqualify Ahmed Bola Tinubu from his presidential ambition. The statement portrays him as a thoughtless buffoon with a mind of an imbecile, whose mouth simply gushes out without any deliberative assessment. How could any seriously minded person, particularly someone who wants to be president of Nigeria and be in charge of over 200 million Nigerians lives, contemplate and utter such simplistic idiocy. 

At just 30.28 million (30,277,850) people serving in various armed forces in the world, all the armies of the world combined are not even up to 50 million in numerical strength,  but here is a man who wants to be president of Nigeria saying that 50 million Nigerians youths should be recruited into the Nigerian armed forces to help combat insecurity and Boko Haram insurgents. Not even China with the largest population in the world of about 1.6 billion people has a number that close with its 2.035 million armed forces personnel; ditto the richest country in the world, the United States of America, with about 350 million population and only 1.37 million armed forces personnel. 

But an impoverished Nigeria with a mere 200 million population and which cannot even conveniently pay, train and equip the less than 100,000 armed forces personnel it currently parades, will now, according to Ahmed Bolaji Tinubu, surge its armed forces personnel to 50 million people. ICHEOKU says really; and it must either be that Ahmed Bola Tinubu is putting something right up into his nostrils or he has no clue at all about anything, including a mathematical impossibility. 

Hopefully, he misspoke and what he said will be dismissed as an outburst borne out of frustration because of the parlous state of affairs in Nigeria caused by the worsening state of insecurity in the country. But if indeed he said it and actually meant it, then it definitely undercuts any argument in favor of his competency to preside over Nigeria as president. How can anyone with such a mindset or cavalier solution to serious security problems afflicting the country, be allowed to preside over a country as complex and polarized as Nigeria with so many intractable religious and tribal problems. May be he could also some day call for the ban christianity in Nigeria so that there will be no more conflict with Islamism.

What was he thinking and what state of mind was he in when he uttered such words or is he also dysfunctional upstairs just like the man he wants to succeed. And yes, speaking of Muhammadu Buhari being bereft of mental astuteness and here comes a total dullard, if measured by this statement, now scheming to take up residence at Aso Rock after Buubuu. ICHEOKU says Nigerians must by all means necessary, reject Ahmed Bola Tinubu presidential foray and prevent him with whatever it takes from ever materializing his presidential ambition. To do otherwise will be a case of Nigerians jumping from the frying pan Buhari into the open flaming fire of Tinubu as such a trade off will be worse than Hades and therefore greatly discouraged. 

But playing the devil's advocate, assuming that what Ahmed Bola Tinubu said is even somewhat tenable and a magical possibility, how does he plan to pay, train, equip and maintain the 50 million youths he wants recruited into the Nigerian armed forces? Where is the Nigerian resources which Ahmed Bola Tinubu wants to deploy in mission accomplishing this his utopian imbecility when even the richest nation on earth, the United States of America, sustains only 1.36 million soldiers. 

But it is Ahmed Bola Tinubu and he keeps disappointing Nigerians, one issue after another. Fulani terrorists are wrecking havoc in Nigeria and he has, for the most part, remained mum about it because he does not want to upset his Fulani overlords so that they may not put spanner in the works against his presidential ambition. Anyway, if the boycott of his 69th birthday celebration in Kano, which was passed off as bad weather related, is anything to deduce from, then hell will first freeze over before he will ever be elected president of Nigeria. Just say no to the crook, reject his presidential ambition. Ahmed Bola Tinubu is not good for Nigeria.

AMERICA'S IDEOLOGICAL DIVIDE IS WIDENING INTO A DANGEROUS CHASM.

ICHEOKU says every four years America's somersaulting policy direction which revolves around which party wins the White House gets more jarringly scarier. This constantly shifting policy direction will in the long run prove very detrimental to the nation. A country should not  so frequently switch its policy direction  as it complicates things, both its foreign partners and domestic trajectory of things. 
Such a back and forth policy direction slows down a country's forward movement, which comes to a stop each time a new president comes into power. A new president who frequently reverses course with his predecessor's directional flow to then begin implementing his own  policy initiative anew. With it, the country's forward movement in a certain direction is halted, only to then begin again in an entirely new opposite direction and with it, a huge loss in momentum between the switch which negatively impacts everything. 
Meanwhile America's biggest competitor, China, is laser-focused with its forward only direction and in a tunnel vision manner, with each subsequent policy succeeding the one preceding it, unlike the American's discarding model. This has resulted in the fast bridging of gap between America and China, both militarily and economically, as China continues to close the gap each time America reverses course and begins to travel in the opposite direction. With this, it is easy to understand why China will likely very soon meet and surpass America as the only economic and military power to reckon with in the world. 
It is a function of time and depends absolutely on how any country applies its time just like human beings. If you are driving a vehicle and ahead of the next driver by 100 miles and suddenly reverses direction on the opposite side, don't forget that the driver you had passed is still continuing on the same direction and your action will help him close the gap and pass you before you turn back your car. 
Joe Biden's first month in office has seen many developmental initiatives for America started under President Donald John Trump being canceled by executive orders. Everything and anything with President Trump's name or signature to it were being reversed and canceled, regardless of their imperativeness to America's overall wellbeing, both in security and economic interest. It appears that Joe Biden's primary motivation is to completely wipe clean off the slate the presidency of President Trump by thrashing and destroying his accomplishments while in office. 
For example, Joe Biden canceled the Keystone XL pipeline project and with it swept eleven thousand jobs down the drain. Joe Biden canceled the Southern border wall construction and with it, wiped out another seven thousand jobs. What is the wisdom behind killing existing jobs and nullifying both projects which are of economic and security interest for America one would ask. Just petty partisanship which failed to take into account that other countries are building pipelines and securing their country respectively. 
Joe Biden has rejoined the Paris climate accord and has opened the southern borders for illegal immigrants to flood America. He has also indicated interest in rejoining the Iran nuclear deal and you wonder what exactly is the benefit of this Iranian rapprochement now as to make it such a priority when Iran still remains a continuing existential threat to Israeli and they have not renounced their hatred for America. 
But his objective is not necessarily the furtherance of America's best interest, but to cancel everything which has President Trump's name on it and it has been a deluge of cancelations, one after another; and you ask yourself when will Joe Biden refocus his energy on creating jobs for Americans and solving America's other burgeoning problems instead of just concentrating his being on how to rubbish President Trump and wipe out whatever is left of his legacy. The unfortunate thing about all these is  their temporality as they will all swing back in four years when the next president takes over, if a republican. 
ICHEOKU says this ever shifting policy directions is simply unsustainable in the long term especially for a country which prides itself as the place to be and which occupies such a preeminent position in the world. It will frustrate into certain unintended consequences including forcing businesses and corporations to relocate and move away, tired of policies which changes every four years. What would all the investors who sunk in money into the Keystone XL pipeline project be thinking now with their investment up in smoke? What will the investors who put money into machinery and equipment in the southern border wall be thinking today about future investments in America? 
How confident will new investors be to make substantial investments in whatever projects and programs which Joe Biden might chose to pursue. Meanwhile, China is not canceling or beginning a different project or changing direction of its focus, and you wonder how they will be stopped from catching and surpassing America within the next few years if they have not already. 
ICHEOKU say the executive orders tinged directional flow interference must stop and it can only stop if Congress started doing its job of legislating. Congress must rise up to its primary responsibility and start making extensive laws for the country to prevent and preempt the need for presidents to use their executive powers to issue executive orders which frequently sways America's policy direction back and forth. Issues affecting America as a country must not be based on the feelings of a the person in occupation of the White House. 
It should not necessarily matter whether it is a democrat or a republican that is in the White House, the stability of American and how to keep America continuously moving forward should be the only consideration guiding certain actions, formulated laws and policy direction. That way, America will not remain in a treadmill of all motion and no movement and at most a back and forth themed ideologically policy revolving turntable. 
How would any foreign country take America seriously enough to enter into enduring treaty or substantial contract when such is subject to a four year reversal depending on the feeling or objective of the person in the White House. Imagine all the efforts made by President Trump to checkmate China, build the wall, reposition NATO and generally improve America's overall rating in the world which have been flushed down the drain by Joe Biden. Imagine all the effort which President Trump made to check illegal immigration into the country especially from the southern border which Joe Biden has now erased. Imagine the fear of God which President Trump put into Iran and other enemies of America including North Korea which have now been supplanted by scorn due to Joe Biden. 
Imagine the stability in law enforcement especially the deportation of MS13 gang members put in place by President Trump which are now headed in the wrong direction because of relaxed immigration policy of Joe Biden. Imagine the respect or fear of American adversaries under President Trump which checkmated their excesses and curbed global terrorism which is now on a shaky ground because of Joe Biden. 
The military was repositioned after decades of unending and unwindable wars depleted their weaponry. Imagine the joy of military families which previously risked losing their loved ones but not any more under President Trump but whose anxiety have now increased since Joe Biden came into office, aware that it will be a resumption of wars as usual. All these accomplishments and many more are now under jeopardy just because Joe Biden wants to extract a pound of flesh from President Trump as a payback for what Trump did to his former boss President Barack Obama's own legacy. His supporters demanded it and Joe Biden apparently has no choice but to continue feeding their beastly appetite. 
If there was a way to safely divide America along this two philosophical and ideological lines and create two separately countries, one for conservatives and the other for liberal, that could have been the ultimate best solution. But unfortunately, there is not and Congress must now rise up and bring Americans back together as one and help stop the polarization bleeding which is going to cost America big time in the near future. Americans used to be a united country where everybody saw each other as fellow Americans and where common sense brought compromises, but it does not look like that any more. 
Now people are suspicious of each other and people can no longer freely express themselves or even speak their minds without being harangued, threatened and even canceled out of existence; their jobs taken, ostracized by their family and friends and you wonder what other place this trajectory could eventually lead America into than a catastrophic end. 
Hopefully this dilution of unity in America has not effected the cohesiveness of the military or widely spread within the military, as the military is still one of the only place left in America where Americans stand together and fight as an army of one. The rest of Americans now hardly see eye to eye on issues and it affects everything including marriages, family ties, friendship and work colleagues. A case where everyone has an opinion and feels that their opinion is superior and must be abided to and you wonder how the country can continuously move forward under such uncompromising stand of its citizens. 
ICHEOKU is steadily afraid that like with every empire of the past that these are telltale signs of America's eventual end if the ship is not timely righted. How can any society advocate for the abolition of gender and still argue that women are not being treated unfairly or that women should be believed but did not believe Tara Reade, Joe Biden's #MeToo accuser. Such irreconcilable opposites are at the root center of the division in America as mostly confused people want to impose their confusion on the rest of the society. As President Abraham Lincoln rightly surmised, a house divided cannot stand; so it about time America started putting more glue to its unity or be damned by what lays ahead. 

EUTHANIZE MAJOR NOW AND BE DONE WITH IT.

ICHEOKU says its time up for the excuses and about time Joe Biden's dog named Major is permanently removed from the White House, either put down or sent back to Wilmington for good. Enough of the making of excuses that it was just reacting to its new environment by biting people as it should have been trained since before arriving at the White House on how to be a well behaved dog. 

Why is his other dog Champ not biting people if it is because of a "new environment" that Major is biting people, afterall both dogs were brought to the White House at the same time. One bite could be excused, but two bites within a few weeks of each other is rather bites too many as White House staffers should be saved and protected from the vicious dog's further bites. If the dog must remain in the White House because Joe Biden cannot function without his dog, then let a muzzle be placed on its mouth permanently and whenever it must have any contact with other people outside Joe and Jill Biden. Lets stop the excessive deference just because it is Joe Biden's dog as American media would not have tolerated it were it President Donald John Trump who had a dog that was frequently biting people in the White House. #MuzzleMajorNow.

8 DAYS IN YET THE WHITE HOUSE HAS NOT VISITED BOULDER BUT THEY WENT TO ATLANTA JUST WITHIN THREE DAYS. DOES WHITE LIVES NOT MATTER ANYMORE IN AMERICA? #BoulderIsHurting.

ASIAN HATE IN AMERICA: OVER BLOWN AND UNREASONABLY OVERHYPED.

ICHEOKU says Asians are the least victimized group in mass killings in America and they should not be seen to complain as if they are existentially, specifically targeted for elimination or that they are the worst victims of gun violence in America because they are not. White people have been killed most in gun violence in America, followed by black people and Sikh  Indians because of their turban. It is therefore particularly self serving for Asians to lament that because six of them were killed in Atlanta, that now makes them the most targeted victims of gun violence in America. 

It seems that Asians now believe that although Black Lives Matter but Asian Lives Matter More and that they are a protected special breed of Americans who should never be killed because they are not supposed to be amenable to gun violence in America. ICHEOKU says have severally wondered why there was the fever pitched hysteria over what happened in Atlanta. There have been other mass killings in America and the heavens never fell down and there will still be more mass killings in the future. Crazy people are gonna do what crazy people do and America has their fair share of crazy people. But to specifically hinge an action by a crazy fella on Asian hatred is overt presumptuous. 

How about the many black lives that have been lost and continues to be lost to senseless gun violence in America. How about the white people who are frequently killing other white people in America. Hispanic people regularly fall victims of senseless killings in the hands of their fellow Hispanic people in America. Whose hatred caused these? Blacks hatred for one another; whites hating each other or hispanics having no love for themselves? But six Asians were among the eight people killed and it is suddenly due to hatred for Asians. How about the two white victims who were also killed in the Atlanta shooting. Whose hatred caused their killings? Why does these killings not provoke the same level of outrage as the Atlanta murders or is it only when it is a crossover killing between races that it rises to the level of chest beating racist killing. 

A mentally deranged gunman went on a killing rampage in Atlanta, killed eight people, six Asians and two whites, and everybody is shouting like Chicken Little as if the sky has finally tumbled down on America. Even the number of the dead in Atlanta pales in comparison to other mass killings in America including Sandy Hook Elementary, Pulse Night Club, Columbine and Fort Hood, yet the generated outrage over it seems to surpass any other. It must be an abomination of some sort to kill Asians because Asian lives are more sacred than other lives being daily wasted in America and therefore off limit to mass killings. This must be the reason Joe Biden and Kamala Harris tag team hurriedly visited Atlanta to console the Asians but have refused to similarly visit Boulder to console the whites; and have also never deemed it fit to visit Chicago to console with the black community over the killings of black folks. 

ICHEOKU says nobody is celebrating or rejoicing that some Asians were among the Atlanta dead, but the generated hysteria is rather unnerving and unreasonably too high. The rest of the world watching from outside might just think that America is the unsafest place for Asians to be in the world and that there is no parallel to what happened in Atlanta any where in America. But instead of calling it for what it is, just another nut job with a gun gone cuckoo, the narrative is that Asians are being targeted in America for elimination by white supremacists because of the Chinese coronavirus and these narrators completely ignored the fact that two of the victims are white people and that all Asians are not Chinese. It is condemnable and it should be condemned for festering the seeds of racial discord in America and for needlessly creating untoward fear and panic within the Asian American community. 

However, equity demands fairness and the need for equal treatment of all Americans makes it imperative that every life in America should be valued equally; they should matter equally, regardless of their skin color. The government must show the same level of empathy and compassion to every community in America any time people of their race are killed, regardless of the skin color of the killer. It seems that it is only when a white person kills a person of another race that there is outrage in the country but not the other way round or when other races kill each other, which somewhat seems to normalize killing of white people and same race killing of each other. 

America needs to stop this seeming acceptance of blacks killing blacks as a tragic normalcy in America. People generally hurt whenever their loved ones are killed. Blacks are people just like the Asians who are currently mourning their loved ones who were killed in Atlanta; ditto the white families of the two white victims. We can do better as a country and we can start by lowering the temperature on race relationship because it is tearing America apart and a house divided is bound to fall. May the souls of the Atlanta and Boulder murdered as well as all other lost to violence souls now rest.

BIDEN KISSED MORE WOMEN THAN CUOMO

As the tenth #MeToo nut job comes out to accuse Governor Cuomo of unwanted kisses, ICHEOKU says nobody has kissed women, girls and children and also touched them in untoward ways more than Joe Biden. So where are the calls for Joe Biden to resign? 

This woman is indeed despicable as she had previously celebrated the meeting with Governor Cuomo on her Facebook page when it initially took place; and her husband was present during the meet and there was not inappropriate in the cheek pecks. But she just flipped the story and it tells you all you need to know about all the #MeToo tales against the governor. They are complete hogwash balderdash orchestrated to hurt the governor's political career and damage his chances in his interest in 2024 president race. Good enough the governor is tough, New York tough; and he is going no where. Continue to stand your ground governor and please do not yield any inch to the #MeToo crazies. They are nuts.

DEREK CHAUVIN WILL BE CONVICTED.

ICHEOKU says it doesn't matter how good the defense attorneys of Derek Chauvin might be or the amount of legalese they propound to establish his lack culpability, the bottom line is that he will be convicted for killing George Floyd, regardless. There is a horrific video which shocks the conscience and Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA demand that he be convicted. So no matter whatever underlying issues George Floyd may have, including the possibility that he could have equally died of drug overdose the next day, what is relevant is that Derek Chauvin kept his knee on George Floyd's neck for more nine minutes and he choked to death as a result. 

Every other argument to the contrary is but gibberish as a tortfeasor takes his victim as he finds him. The only two issues left to be determined at the trial so called are the degree of the homicide and the nature of the punishment he will receive. The BLM and ANTIFA riots of last summer which made it possible for the Deep State to install Joe Biden in the White House because Americans do not want to witness such destructive riots again will also force Derek Chauvin's conviction in order to avoid a repeat destruction. It might be time his defense counsel seek a negotiated term instead of wasting everyone's time progressing with the trial. 

DEFUND THE POLICE: A WISH RIGHTFULLY DENIED.

ICHEOKU says DEFUND THE POLICE really got a huge boost within the past two weeks, sarcastically speaking. Imagine the level of carnage that would have been witnesses in Boulder and Atlanta had the two cities acquiesced to the weird demand of the lunatic far left wing of the Democratic Party led by BLM and ANTIFA anarchists. 

But thankfully, the brave men and women in blue are still operating in both cities and their courageous response helped curtail what would have been incalculable bloodier massacres. Liberalism is a mental disease so said Michael Savage and the talk show host is right that liberals do not often properly weigh the pros and cons of what they propagate before pushing it on the American people. What were they thinking when they said to defund the police or that bad people will automatically become saints just because the police has been canceled. Their thinking is a cancer on American society and needs to be cut off before it metastasizes any further. It is sad.

GEORGIA'S NEW ELECTION LAW IS NOT DISCRIMINATORY: WHY ALL THE FUSS?

ICHEOKU says black people are not the only people in Georgia nor does the new Georgia's election law specifically target them to deprive them of their voting rights. So, it is very disheartening to see black people  always held out as invalids who always need a hand up and who lack the capacity to be compliant to orders, rules and regulations. It is even more appalling that some black people participate in this propagation of blacks inferiority status which is often attributed to black people. 

These race baiters often times urge the lowering of standards for black people as if they are special needs people. They also make excuses on why certain rules should not be enforced as written because, according to them, it will be difficult for black people to comply with. This encourages mediocrity and the low expectations of and in black people, which is often interpreted as black people not being tough enough and/or that their neurons fire differently from the rest of American people of other races. 

A case in point is the new election reform law passed by the State of Georgia; a law which has a general application across the broad spectrum of everyone that lives in Georgia including whites, blacks, Hispanics, Pacific Islanders, Indians, Asians and native Americans. But instead of seeing the law for what it is, an effort to fix what is broken and which makes election results always contentious, race baiters of America are saying that it is geared at depriving black people of their voting rights. They singled out black people as the only ones being specifically targeted by the new election law; saying that it will make it difficult for black people to vote in future elections. But there is no evidence to back this up as the law applies equally to every Georgian who wants to vote in an election. 

So, if other races can vote in elections under the new law, why then will black people not be able to similarly also vote, since they are not prohibited under the new law from voting in elections. The new law only says that voters must present an identification card before they vote; that  voters waiting in line to vote must not be provided with food and drinks by third parties and also shortened the waiting period for runoff elections from nine weeks to four weeks just for efficiency. If other Georgians of other races can present their identification cards at elections, why can't black people also do the same? 

If Georgians of other races can tough it out, not receiving food and drinks, while queued up on voting lines, why can't black people do the same? At worse they can bring along their own foods and drinks since the law does not preclude anybody from bringing their own provisions if they want. The new law also requires every runoff elections to be conducted within four weeks irrespective of whose runoff election it is. So, if Georgians of other races will comply to the new four weeks time frame for runoff elections, why can't black people? 

But no, their narrative is that State of Georgia has reinstated Jim Crow's law with the new election law just to once again prevent black people from voting. One wonders where the poll tax and/or additional burden in the new law is which was specifically imposed on black people to make it difficult for them to vote because they cannot pay it or discharge the burden. If indeed black people believe that they are the new majority voting bloc in Georgia and are convinced that their numerical strength makes all the difference in Georgia elections, why don't they just organize themselves to get identification card for every black person in Georgia who doesn't have one. And yes, they can organize voter registration and get out the votes drives for black people but finds it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to get identification cards for these registered black voters who do not have identification cards. 

Something is not right and definitely fishy with this scheme and needs to change. The real motive behind the agitation against Georgia's latest act rectifying its flawed elections has nothing to do with it being discriminatory. It has everything to do with keeping the statues-quo in place that enables election malpractice, otherwise why would anybody have an issue with conducting fair elections and producing credible elections results. There is nothing discriminatory against black people in the peach State's new election laws as black people are not specifically targeted in any way. 

So, enough of the cheap shots and laughable pity party by black people. It is about time black people stopped accepting the demeaning of them as inferior people who cannot be  competitive in America. If other races in America can do it, so should black people; and if other races in Georgia can comply to the new Georgia's election law, black people should not find any excuse or reason not to similarly comply to it. Self defeatism as a strategy should be discontinued and abandoned by black people as it is cheapening and also deprives black people of their dignity as equals in America. It is time black people truly see themselves as Americans and adapt as bona fide Americans with no handicaps that make them special needs people.

DR DEBORAH BIRX IS SHAMELESS: MAKING SUCH CORONAVIRUS DEATHS ASSESSMENT.

ICHEOKU says if subsequent coronavirus deaths following the first surge could have been prevented why then did she not prevent them, afterall her Taskforce was in charge of managing the coronavirus pandemic and peradventure mitigating associated deaths. Was there any advise which she gave to President Donald John Trump or recommendation which she made to him on mitigation measures that were ignored and not implemented. If so, why didn't she speak up then or resigned in protest, instead of being a willing accomplice to not "mitigating" the coronavirus deaths and thus being partly responsible for the coronavirus deaths suffered in America when she was in charge. 

Also why are people still dying from the coronavirus disease nearly three months after President Donald John Trump was forced out of the White House, assuming his being there was the reason coronavirus was killing American people then. 

But the scarf wearing woman hung in there to the end, only to now run her foul mouth on CNN with Dr Gupta in an effort to become WOKE and seek forgiveness and acceptability in the club of Trump hating leftists nut jobs of America. How about accepting her responsibility in the whole catastrophe instead of shirking them as she played a top role in mismanaging the coronavirus crisis. It is a shame that she has no honor left in her that she had to stoop this low, going this route, in piling up on President Donald John Trump and blaming him for the coronavirus deaths witnessed last year. 

ICHEOKU says is President Donald John Trump also responsible for the over 150,000 coronavirus deaths recorded in America since he was forced out of the White House? At the rate of 150,000 deaths in two months recorded since January 20, 2021 when President Trump left, that would have made it 900,000 deaths in the twelve months he managed the crisis as president. But only 400,000 deaths were recorded throughout, a shortfall of 500,000 deaths going by this statistics, yet this woman is this pitiful in shamelessly passing the buck and saying that those deaths were otherwise avoidable. What a woman. 

PRINCE HARRY GOT BILLS TO PAY, SO OFF TO WORK HE GOES.

ICHEOKU says soon he will have to get a third job as one income might not be enough for a person who have free loaded on the British tax payers all his life; especially now that he been taken hostage by a control freak who likes the lifestyle of a princess but was not ready to discharge the responsibilities which come with it. 

With three mouths to feed and another one on the way, Prince Harry needs all the jobs he can get to keep up with the Jones; except if his current two jobs are another orchestrated welfare package put together by their sponsors and meant to take care of them for life.  

ICHEOKU says will he have supervisors looking over his shoulders and writing him up from time to time? Will he be working 9 to 5 and always be on a timely schedule, punctual to his duty desks and associated meetings? Will he have the necessary skills to work as a team player and is he conditioned to meet deadlines and work overtime whenever required. 

ICHEOKU says has no answers to these questions but knows that Uncle Sam is definitely happy to have another person now contributing to its financial wellness, an additional tax payer is not a bad bargain. He is married to an American and should have obtained his Social Security Number and Green Card by now. Now that he has become a member of the working class, a  commoner working to earn his wages, maintain his family and pay his monthly bills, is he still a bona fide prince? Anyway, congratulations to Worker Harry and welcome to the real world.

WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO BOULDER. TEN WHITE LIVES TAKEN BY AN ARAB ISLAMIST DESERVE TO BE MOURNED TOO AS WHITE LIVES SHOULD MATTER AS WELL. WHAT DATE IS THE WHITE HOUSE VISITING BOULDER, BOULDER IS HURTING.

CHINA FACE OFF: IT IS TOO LATE NOW TO TAME THE PANDA.

ICHEOKU says the West talking to China and expecting them to be more reasonable in the relationship between them is akin to talking to the Taliban or ISIS and expecting them to accept Western values and stop their hatred for Christians and Western civilization. There is an unbridgeable ideological and philosophical divide between the two civilizations which cannot be fixed through mere talking and/or negotiation as one must capitulate in order for the other to triumph. It will require the nuclear option to completely obliterate their thinking and forcibly impose Western values on them, otherwise they will never move an inch. They have to be militarily defeated and in their surrender terms, the adoption of Western values will be spelt out as a precondition for sparing any surviving leadership member. But expecting the current approach to work or thinking that sanctions and boycotts will do the magic is but a wishful thinking. China will never allow itself to be dictated to by the West nor will they ever compromise their national security values. 

Only a successfully military confrontation will see the West's desired change in China, otherwise all the talks and condemnations will remain what they are, mere hot air which could last in perpetuity without moving the needle. China sees the pressure being put on them by the West as an existential threat to its way of life and they will not accept it willingly. They have made their minds up to irrevocably stand their ground and will engage in a costly war if need be to defend their position. It is the Western nations that have not taken a firm stand on whether they are prepared to do what it takes to force the issue by confronting China militarily. As far as China is concerned, their position is irrevocably made known and they have thrown their hat in the ring and waiting for the West to make their next move. 

If the West takes a pass as it is most likely to do because they have no appetite for a bloody battle with China, then they must be prepared to put up with China's human rights violations and their dictatorial way of managing their very large population. Democracy does not work in a vacuum and China does not have the necessary institutions that supports democracy. So, the only two options available to the West are to either put up by going to war with China or to shut up by accepting China the way China is, understanding that China will always do what China does and will simply ignore the West as it steadily powers onward. The pressure would have worked several decades earlier when China was just taking off, but it is too late now as they have powered through the frontiers and unstoppably racing towards the finish line in their quest to surpass every country on the face of the earth. Nobody can stop them now and they will not allow anybody to even try and will go to war to prove their new status as a nation with a formidable might.

Had the West not wasted so much time before making their current lame effort to contain China, may be they would have succeeded in caging China or confined it to within an acceptable power status. But China has grown so exponentially over the many past decades that their military and economic muscles can help them stand their ground with much greater audacity now. Therefore China will not bulge nor will they ever submit to the West's pressure to reform. They will use their 1.6 billion population to bargain their way out of any given tight spot which they are forced into, short of shooting war. They will readily deploy them in  boycotting products from nations which they consider hostile to their national strategic interest. Unfortunately for the West, so many western companies and corporations have tasted the juiciness that comes with 1.6 billion people patronizing and buying their products and those companies will not allow their governments to spoil their fun. 

Therefore, as it presently stands, all the hollering of the West for China to reform is akin to a dog barking at a grizzly bear but dares not breach the distance between them to levy an attack. China knows that they are coming from a position of strength and that the West have no real choice in the matter. Also, the West cannot sanction China out of relevance as it lacks the capacity to ruin the Chinese economy.  Even militarily, China is no longer a push over banana republic and cannot be easily intimidated by naval armadas, fighter planes, missiles and bombs. So, what exactly can the West do to an uncompromising China to make them change their ways since increased decibel of their condemnations has no effect. 

ICHEOKU says nothing really except a full blown war and hope of a quick victory. It is what Bill Clinton led the world into by letting China into the World Trade Organization. Now they have matured fully and can no longer be pushed around by the West. Thereof only tolerating them as they are is the only real option for the West, short of going to a full blown shooting war with China. Hopefully, they will defeat China and then divide them up into smaller countries like a conquered territory or China will implode on its own just like the old Soviets Union. But as long as China remains one undivided country, they will remain a force of nature to reckon with and they will not allow themselves to be easily overawed, intimidated or dictated to. They will continuously resist the West's pressure and they will engage in tit for tat measures, sanctions for sanctions and boycotts for boycotts, in their push back of the West to back off. 

WHY DOES BLACK IDENTIFICATION CARDS DISAPPEAR DURING ELECTIONS?

ICHEOKU says black people drive vehicles, maintain bank accounts, cash checks, fly in airplanes, drink at bars, purchase liquors, buy medications, go to night clubs, rent cars, are tenants and home owners in America. All of these activities have one thing in common, they all require an identification card to conduct. So why is it only during election that blacks  identifications suddenly disappear and become unavailable, necessitating the no voter identification requirement for voters because black voters do not have identification cards. It is an insult to black people to be denigrated in this manner and an affront to the intelligence of every other American who see through the ridiculousness of the charade being perpetrated on America by the Democratic Party. It is a ruse used by the Democratic Party in stealing of votes during elections, using black people as tools. 

Why the Democratic Party cannot organize getting identification cards for these black people in the same way they organize voters registration for them especially in black communities is simply beyond ICHEOKU. But it is well perfected scheme which they use to cheat in elections, aware that they cannot win if voting is conducted honestly with only legitimate voters allowed to vote. So the great State of Georgia did well by enacting voter identification law and other Republican States should follow suit. It is an idiotic argument that requiring an identification card for voters is denying them their voting rights. Therefore anyone who wants to vote should bring his wallet or her purse to the polling station and show his identification card and then vote. It is the right thing to do and it should be universally mandated in America to curb the frequent irregularities in elections caused by voter fraud. Lets clean our acts up and begin to conduct transparent elections in America. Enough of the debate over voter identification.

THEY HAVE TURNED THEIR BACK ON WHITE PEOPLE?

ICHEOKU says it only took three days for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to make their joint visit to Atlanta to commiserate with Asians for the shooting there which claimed eight lives including six Asians and two white people. It is over four days now since the Boulder shootings claimed ten white lives and the White House is yet to announce a similar visit to Boulder to go commiserate with the white people there. Is the White House propagating racism against white people by not equally going to comfort the white people who are hurting over the loss of they loved ones including a police officer when they went to Atlanta to comfort Asian people. What is going on Joe and Kam? 

A SHAM PRESS CONFERENCE OF FURNISHED QUESTIONS AND REHEARSED ANSWERS.

ICHEOKU says one of the hallmarks of presidential press conference is usually its spontaneity. But when the same press conference becomes a rehash of an already seen questions and earlier prepared answers then the built up excitement is defeated. Today, after over 50 years of being imposed on Americans and installed in the White House, Joe Biden ventured out to do a press conference but it ended up badly. 

There was no fireworks, he was dower and nothing came out of it that moved the news trajectory or even made the news. It was flat at best and less informative to say the least; and for a man who continuously preaches unity of American people, the fact that he refused to call on any conservative reporter to field a question says it all about the seriousness of his professed unity. No journalist from Fox News, OAN or Newmax was called up to ask a question and you wonder how the millions on the right side of American politics will see this open disdainful behavior.  

Joe Biden also confirmed to the world that he is a Methuselah and was in the United States Senate for 120 years before he became a Vice President and then eventually installed in the White House by the Deep State. He called on specific reporters from his notebook who most probably submitted their questions ahead of time to enable his minders prepare answers for  them. But he still struggled remembering the answers and had to directly read them as written for him in his handbook. It was heartrending watching the labored read and you wonder why his minders did not also correctly write for him the number of years he was in the senate since they went to the length of providing him the answers to other questions. How did he know the right  flashcards to bring if the questions were not provided to him ahead of time and answers to them also made available.

So many questions which many people had expected to see were not asked; instead the journalists were busy asking a 78 year man who barely made it through the last election and who is less than 60 days in his term whether he will run again in 2024. Meanwhile there was no questions on January 6th Capitol riot; on the economy; joblessness and why he canceled the Keystone XL pipeline project and whether he regrets the jobs that were lost as a result. Nobody asked him if he had continued with the border wall and not canceled it, whether it would not have helped to stem the southern border immigration crisis. Even when he said he has no apologies for canceling all the measures put in place by President Donald John Trump which checkmated the immigration crisis, none of the reporters pushed back to explain that the measures were indeed working. Also he was not challenged to renounce his messaging which is encouraging the migration. 

He read the answers to the questions which were very noticeable with the questions on the expected withdrawal date of American soldiers from Afghanistan and North Korea missiles firing provocations. It is also instructive that no journalist deemed it fit to ask Joe Biden whether his administration is purposely preventing journalists from going to the holding facilities until they straighten things out so that they will not see the appalling state of affairs there now. They also failed to challenge him on the cancel culture epidemic which is infesting the country and whether such is not autocratic and anti democratic. There was also no questions on why Prince Mohamed Bin Salaman was not punished for killing journalist Jamal Khashoggi; the Kenyan government slaughter of Tigrans and of course the Myanmar ongoing military attack on democracy. 

It was such a pitiful event and it is obvious that a lot of cover up was involved in staging the press conference, especially by the journalists who were themselves a far cry from their adversarial self during President Donald John Trump time in the White House. The journalists were not driven by fact finding and information gathering; they merely willfully participated in a ruse orchestrated to satisfy anxious Americans who were steadily getting worried that the man occupying their White House has not addressed a press conference for over 50 days since he was installed in office. It is a shame.

Anyway, it is good that he survived the press conference, did not faint or collapse and did not sip any water throughout the slightly over one hour press meet, if ICHEOKU could call it that. Let us hope that he will going forward make himself more readily available to the media and also learn to take questions and answer them off cuff. But whatever happens, the practice of leaking questions ahead of time to our leaders which was started by Donna Brasile with Hillary Clinton must stop. It somewhat questions the intelligence of our leaders and the world is laughing at America on how Hollywood has corrupted everything in America with everything being literary scripted just for show. It questions America's seriousness and challenges its place as a leader of the world if they could allow such a mentally and physically debilitated man to be leading them.

JOE BIDEN: SIMPLY SHAMELESS.

ICHEOKU says Joe Biden is shameless in blaming President Donald John Trump for the crisis at the southern border. A crisis which he created but now wants to avoid taking responsibility for. During the 2020 presidential campaign Joe Biden called for surge of immigrants and specifically said that he will allow millions of undocumented immigrants into America. 

He condemned the effort which President Donald John Trump made to stop the inflow and even accused him of being too harsh as only a racist would. Joe Biden stopped the construction of the border wall and also canceled the remain in Mexico policies put in place by President Trump which were both effective. Now, it appears that his apparent dementia has erased these facts from his memory as he now accuses President Trump for what is unfolding before our eyes at the southern border. Even the immigrants wore "Joe Biden Please Let Us In" teeshirts and some of them said that they would not have come if not that Joe Biden gave them the ok signal. But faced with this evidence, shirking responsibility for what he actually caused is now the latest thing American people are being asked to put up with the mumbling feeble Joe Biden. It is sad.
