HARRY WALKS AWAY: TAKES SIDE WITH HIS FEMME FATALE.

ICHEOKU says a Christmas spent in Canada, away from the Queen and the royal family's Christmas festivities; a long running family tradition which is observed together by the British royals, is the clearest indication that things will never be the same again in the British House of Royals. It was the most strident way of Prince Harry announcing that it is over, that he is done with the royal family. A definite show of reverberating defiance in which he took side with his wife, against his family and forever parted ways with the British royal family. It was a disrespectful thumbing of the nose and smack down on the Queen, his grandmother, without who there will be no Prince Harry, talkless of his gold digging black American beau. 

Although the slight leading up to the Christmas in Canada were many, including running around butt naked in a Las Vegas hotel room, loud partying with many girls and eventually bringing home a black American divorcee for a wife etc; but the Christmas snub of the Queen peaked it. Now, less than three weeks after snubbing the Queen and other royals at Christmas, the renegade Prince has now announced that his family will be steeping aside from the royal family to assume a normal peasant's life and that he will get a job to support his family. A matter made worse because he did not give the Queen a head's up nor first conferred with his father and brother, Prince Charles and Prince William, about his plans. Rather he decided to carry his spiteful behavior further by publicly humiliating and degrading them, diminished their importance in his life by ignoring them and forced them to know about his decision when everyone else knew about it. 

ICHEOKU says it is possible that Prince Harry is tired of pretending bona fides of royalty and done with living a lie, since he was not sired by Prince Charles as rumored. He also does not factor into the succession plan of the monarchy as there is Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince George before him and young George will also someday father a son whose claim to the throne will trump Harry's. Could Prince Harry have said what the heck, why carry such a burden if there is no expectation of being a King, when he could freely live a normal life, unbounded and unshackled by the grueling royal etiquette. But whatever is the case, the announcement that he and his family will step down from status and become ordinary by getting a job and living primarily in North America is a total break from the British royal family, admitted they are being coy and clever by half with words. The intention has been progressively manifesting and Prince Harry most likely acted to preempt whatever action the Queen might take; a Queen who will now have no choice but to formally relieve Prince Harry of his title and whatever accouterments that came with it. 

Unlike the world which is pretending surprised by the announcement, ICHEOKU saw it coming and a long time ago. In an article published November 27th, 2019 on ICHEOKU:-meniru.blogspot.com titled "Meghan Markle, the agony of an unwanted princess", ICHEOKU somewhat foretold of this outcome. Prince Harry is a rebellious person and he was not cut in the same cloth as his elder brother, Prince William, who was born and prepped to be a King. Prince Harry is a freak of nature, his looks and traits; and some of the things he likes does not agree with royalty and it showed in his choice of wife, a divorcee and a black foreigner who is older than him. ICHEOKU says were it in the days of yore, he could have done more sinister things that could have even ended the monarchy since. 

Hopefully, Meghan appreciates the magnitude of the sacrifice which Harry is making for her sake by walking away from the British monarchy and will not break his heart in whatever way, including not divorcing him down the line. Although she did it before and could be crazy enough as a liberated feminist to do it again, afterall she is not a saint.  Having put a knife between the bond of two brothers, pulling asunder what Princess Diana put together, she is capable of just anything. This development is a further vindication of Prince William who had cautioned and counseled Prince Harry not to rush into anything with Meghan without first thinking it through. Speaking of a crazed out, wild eyed feminist and you are looking at the poster gal in Meghan. Just take a look at her twinkling squirrel eyes and it tells you everything you need to know about her contrived nature. 

Whether this separation becomes permanent or not, Prince Harry disrespected the Queen beyond pardon by not first informing her and obtaining her permission before walking away. Now, the world expects the Queen to act by wielding the big stick and clubbing Harry down, either to force him recant his decision or be damned as a prince. Any other thing will show weakness and a moribund monarchy unfolding. The Queen cannot remain a Queen and expects to be respected by her subjects when her little grandson repeatedly challenges her authority and making her look irrelevant. Prince Harry is a rebel and a radical who repeatedly affronts, flouts and disrespects the monarchy, both in his behavior and actions. Therefore the Queen must read the riots act to him and demand that he either fully conforms or be denounced from the British monarchy. 

If Prince Harry chooses the later, so be it; but the plan to disrupt and disorganize the royal family must not be tolerated. It should be nipped in the bud immediately before he and his femme fatale takes the entire monarchy down. The Queen must be very decisive in order to protect the institution and immediately cut him off from all and every inheritance, including title. It is self evident that things are rapidly deteriorating inside and falling apart within the British royal family. It also appears that the center can no hold the monarchy together; begging the question whether it is about time the monarchy ended. Or better still, is it time for the sit tight Queen to step down and make way for a fresh set of ideas by allowing her son Prince Charles to mount the throne. 

Is the Queen so set in her ways that newer generations such as Prince Harry finds it difficult to understand the relevance of such institutions in this modern times. Why not just do away with such ancient tradition of encouraging societal wealth chasm between the haves and the have nots; as well as one party lording it over others. Why not just let Britain become like any other country with a republican form of government where everyone is equal. 

Anyway, nobody knows how the current face-off between Prince Harry and the monarchy will eventually be resolved; but it is increasingly obvious that Meghan was an otherwise avoidable catalyst which is now threatening to quicken the end of one of the longest running monarchy the world ever knew. Is it possible too that she might end up turning out to be the femme fatale of Harry and his regrets will be plenty; afterall she has put a rift between him and his brother William. Even this idea of abdicating would be hers as well as she seek to isolate Prince Harry in order to control him and put a vice hold on him. But, except for Nostradamus, the future is always shrouded in optimum secrecy which is not penetrable by ordinary human vision; so nobody knows how the saga will end. But hey, congratulations to Prince Harry for standing up for his family and having the audacity to challenge the British monarchy.

IF IRAN MISCALCULATES: THE WAR WILL BE ON THEM.

ICHEOKU says could the authorities in Tehran be under some illusion that they stand a chance in any hostilities with the United States of America? Or better still, under a delusion that the war-faring prowess of Darius the Great and such other Persian war greats that established the Persian empire, is still attainable today. That because they descended from these great warriors, they stand a fighting chance with the United States of America. 

Tehran needs to be clear eyed that those Persian empire war stories belong in the archives and history books; and that the reality of today is an antithesis of what it was then. That the days of amassed armies across land borders, firing mortars and poisoned arrows back and forth against each other, is since long gone. A matter made more pronounced because there is no territorial dispute between them and America that will need to be conquered and won. That America has no interest in capturing and taking possession of or occupying Iran; nor in any  nation building or stabilization of a post war Iran. That should war break out, the United States military campaign objective will be quite different from both Iraq and Afghanistan. That it will be to swiftly conclude the hostilities and at the least cost, financial and casualty, to America. Everything conventional, which American military has, will be thrown forward at Iran to destroy whatever Iran may have and in order to deprive them the will to carry on. 

ICHEOKU says any war between America and Iran will be so quick and with such an overwhelmingly force that Iran will be devastated, such that if Iraq saw shock and awe, Iran will witness a dumbfounding paralysis of the entire Iranian labyrinth of existence as a society. Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan where targets were specifically sought out and carefully targeted, Iran will suffer destruction far greater than Operation Delta Freedom inflicted on Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 90s. Such a war will be mostly airborne including bombs, missiles and strafing bullets and Iran will not have an answer to the saturation of their airspace with incoming. It will a greatly skewed war in favor of America with its incalculable air superiority over any country in the world. 

It does not matter how well trained, equipped and prepared the Quds Force might be, but no army can effectively wage a military campaign without proven logistics and air support. Any mobilized army will need air cover, open resupply route for sustenance and military hardwares; as well as the capacity to quickly evacuate wounded and dead soldiers. How does Iran plan for these contingencies or would they just commit a mass suicide, being sitting ducks for American sorties and missiles? 

Although, there is a very remote possibility that American and Iranian ground forces will ever face each other should war break, except of course Iran decides to invade an American asset including embassies and stationed troops in other countries. If Iran instead decides to attack an American ally such as Saudi Arabia, Israel or Jordan, such country's army will be the bulwark of any defense and offense against the invading Iranian forces, with American military providing air support and covering their rear. 

Also, since America is such a long way from Iran and Iran lacks the military capabilities to marshal their army to American homeland, their only option is to target American assets in the Middle East and then Europe by proxy of their terrorists. They might be successful with a few strikes, but the reprisal attacks will be so devastating for Iran that they would wish they never called America's bluff. Overall, it will be a very bad trade off which no sensible, reasonable and responsible country would ever want to deal. 

That being said, America will not let the war linger on for too long nor needlessly bog America troops down in the Middle East. Every effort will be made to force the Iranian army and their government to a quickly surrender; after which America will then spell out the terms of surrender. It happened with Germany; it happened with Japan and it happened with Saddam Hussein's Iraq; so, Iran will not be any different. This is a country which couldn't defeat Iraq under Saddam Hussein but now thinks itself a "super" power, constantly wagging their finger at America. 

ICHEOKU says in as much as nobody wants another war in that region, but a war with Iran is somewhat tempting and needs to be fought and decisively won, in order to finally resolve the superiority contest which has been brewing within the Iranians. They have been begging for a smack down since 1979 and this might be a good time to indulge them and permanently put them in their place for good. Their petulance is becoming simply unbearable and the more they get away with stuff, the more they become more emboldened. 

Libya's Moummar Gaddafi back in the 80s used to be a pain in the butt of the world until President Ronald Reagan sent a missile into his bedroom. That was his first rude awakening, which nightmare he never fully recovered from until his problem was eventually permanently solved, lynched like a common thief. Saddam Hussein's Iraq problem was equally solved, when he was hung like a common criminal. So why is it not a good idea to once and for all solve the recurring Iranian problem, should they now present America with the opportunity. 

So, the only meaningful option left for Iran is for them to cut their losses, back down and back off from any further provocations; realizing that President Donald John Trump is a different kind of president. That his love for America is such that if Iran miscalculates, they will force his hands to do whatever it takes to end their endless provocations. As a businessman and CEO, problem solving is President Donald John Trump's primary calling; and he sees Iran as a recurring problem since 1979 which needs to be finally solved. Hopefully, the president will solve the Iranian problem if the leadership in Tehran does not recalibrate by backing down from the current standoff. As a double puncher, the president will not accept anything short of a total surrender from Iran, should any shooting war results. 

Iran has nothing to prove and cannot prove anything to America. The balance of power dictates that they stop any further aggressive behavior and save themselves from an assured doom. It will rain down heavy on them from the skies and not even their Prophet Imam Ali can save them from such provoked wrath of the United States of America's mighty military. Hopefully reason will prevail, believing that their leadership has some wisdom and will weigh the pros and cons carefully before leading their country down the precipice and off the cliff. But in any event, a needless tit for tat must not be encouraged as such leads to avoidable bleeding of resources. 

If Iran dares, a decisive and swift decapitation of its entire leadership, political, military and religious will be in play immediately, in order to discourage any further stupidity from whoever may survive and remains after that. Iran must therefore choose wisely and not risk it all with further provocations; aware that there is a pecking order in the world and that Iran does not belong in the first tier, regardless of what they might think of themselves. Iran is still a third rate "shitholey" country and they cannot stand America's fury. Enough of the provocations.

QASSEM SOLEIMANI: GOOD RIDDANCE OF A DERANGED ZEALOT.

QASSAM SOLEIMANI: JUST ANOTHER TERRORIST.

ICHEOKU says has no sympathy for the assassination of world's number one terrorist mastermind and leader of designated Iranian terrorist organization, the Quds Force aka Iran's Revolutionary Guards. With the many atrocities under his belt, it is even surprising that he lasted this too long not to have been killed much earlier; but it is good that at last he finally met his nemesis. 

As with other similarly decapitated organizations, it does not matter who his replacement is, it will never be the same for the organization, which is good for the whole world. Al Queida has not recovered ever since Osama Bin Laden was taken out; ditto ISIS with the double tap elimination of their leader Abu al Baghdadi and his second in command, Haji Imam.

The Quds Force will not be any different as there can only be one Qassam Soleimani. Having been in control and at the helm of affairs of the organization as long as he did means that he had the organization personalized.  As a result, nobody will ever command the same presence and influence which he had while his existence lasted. It would have been different if he had anticipated his end or was terminally sick for some time and had time to groom a chosen successor and impacted him much knowledge about his clandestine activities. It also does not matter the succession plans that might be in place, the Quds Force will never be the same without Qassam Soleimani.  

Anyway, Iran has been dealt a devastating blow and with it, a strong message sent that the entire breath of the government and religious leadership in Tehran are within contemplation for elimination, should they overreach themselves or do anything stupider than they have already done. There is no condition on earth in which Iran would win a shooting war with America; so they better not try any more stupid thing in order to avoid an assured end to both their government and possibly country. It also does not matter what their only friends, Russia and/or China and/or North Korea and/or Venezuela decide to do, helping Iran, it does not matter; as Tehran, Mashhad and Isfahan will be pulverized and questions can be asked later. Enough of their provocations.

QASSAM SOLEIMANI ASSASSINATION: JUST A DOWN PAYMENT.

ICHEOKU says it was a precision strike that took out world's number terrorist and leader of Iranian terrorist organization, the Quds Force aka Iranian Revolutionary Guard. With him now dispatched to go meet his maker and possibly rendezvous with Prophet Imam Ali, the region, as well as the greater world, will now know some peace. 

The mongrel has been spreading terror throughout the Middle East, claiming hundreds of American lives with it, with the worst direct affront being the "rubbing of America's nose in the dirt" with his mastermind of the attack on American embassy in Baghdad. Good enough we now have a decisive American president, whose loyalty to America is not in doubt and who would do whatever it takes to defend and protect American lives, as well as properties and assets throughout the world and he responded decisively by taking out this linchpin. ICHEOKU says this might also be a good time to also target and eliminate the Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and get rid of the two terrorists holding the Middle East hostage in one go.

ICHEOKU congratulates President Donald John Trump and his security council, the Armed Forces as well as the Intelligence Service for a well coordinated hit on Qassam Soleimani. Hopefully, the shock wave will reverberate throughout the Middle East and send a strong message to Tehran to stop messing with America. Iran has been rattling America's cage for such a long time that they became overconfident in their ability and that America will not do a thing to them. They invaded America's sovereign embassy grounds in Tehran in 1979, took several Americans diplomatic staff hostage. They killed hundreds of American soldiers during the Iraqi war by proxy of the Shia militia. They shot down America's drone. They once again invaded an American embassy in another country, Iraq; a mistake which they will live to forever regret. 

The assassination of the leader of their Revolutionary Guard, the Quds Force, Qassam Soleimani is just the beginning of what to come, a down payment of some sort, unless Iranian government disciplines themselves and stop pulling the tail of the tiger. If they miscalculates as to respond to this killing or perpetrate another act of terror against America or its interest, they will be signing their death warrant as a country. Such a further provocation might see the decapitation strikes extended into Tehran; and the Ayattolah, their president, as well as the Revolutionary Guard headquarters will be fair game in direct crosshairs. The message sent was hopefully received as intended, that America has had it with their petulance and provocations; and that any attempt by them to further escalate the situation will be decisively put down and with heavier than measured retaliation. 

ICHEOKU commends President Donald John Trump for signing off on the strike that took care of this beast, who once boasted that he will take his terror to American homeland, that he will sail his warships to American coasts and that his Quds Force will defeat America in any military confrontation. Now, he knows who his daddy is and that it is not always a good idea to threaten America, especially when such threats are followed up with so many acts which terrorized American service men and women, as well as America's members of the diplomatic service. By invading a sovereign American embassy grounds in Baghdad, in another country Iraq, Iran has peradventure declared war on America. All America is doing now is to defend itself and sending a message to Tehran, not any more. Good riddance.

BAGHDAD EMBASSY ATTACK: MAKE IRAN AND IRAQ PAY A STIFF PRICE.

ICHEOKU says apparently Iran wanted to replicate what they did to the American embassy in Tehran during their 1979 revolution. The Iraqi government on the other hand is also complicit because of their failure to protect the American embassy on their soil. Both countries therefore are jointly responsible for the attack on the American embassy in Baghdad and must be held accountable for executing and permitting the attack, respectively. The two countries must be made to pay for the cost of repairs and replacements of whatever were  damaged and/or destroyed during the mayhem. 

Enough of tolerating these maniacs exploding at the slightest provocation and taking it out on America and its interests in the Middle East. None of them ever dares to destroy Russia's or Chinese assets in their region, fully aware that both countries are a no nonsense countries and will retaliate in equal measure, if not more. But for America, they have concluded that they would not respond in kind or in a way that would send them a strong message of never again should this be tolerated. This is the reason they frequently take to the streets to protest America and destroying American assets and burning American flags, because they have become emboldened by getting away with so many intransigence carried out against America in the past, including the invasion and hostage taking of diplomatic staff in Tehran. 

As part of the punishment against Iran and Iraq, there should be drawn a line in the sand that the next time such a thing happens, that their own embassies will either be attacked or shut down. The government in Iraq cannot survive a day without America's presence in the Middle East and therefore the Prime Minister must be read the riot act to either use the authorities of his office to protect embassies in his country or his days in office are numbered. Any protest crosses the line when properties are being damaged, destroyed and set on fire, especially properties which are on sovereign grounds of the United States of America like the embassy. Enough of the cuddling of these maniacs; the time for measure for measure has since come and in order to put a stop to the vagrancy and recurring lashing out against American interests in that part of the world. 

Better still, the next time it happens, live ammunition should be deployed against any person wantonly destroying properties in a zero tolerance enforcement of law on international relations to protect America's embassy sovereign grounds. Also, it would appear that the perimeter walls were not as strong as original intended, so necessary adjustment should be made thereto, including taking a blueprint from Israeli walls which has kept them safe from the Palestine. Those walls could not have been breached, regardless of the number of maniacs that were assembled against it. Then a few meters before the wall should be lines of concertina barbed razor wires providing additional protective hurdles to cross before even reaching the walls. Raising the windows higher should also be considered. 

ICHEOKU says the frequency of these attacks on American embassies has become such that people are beginning to wonder if indeed America can and is capable of protecting its diplomatic foreign missions. From Pakistan to Egypt to Libya to Cuba to Tanzania to Kenya to Yemen to Iran and now Iraq, they are just too many of these attacks on American embassies that it is about time something is done to end it, including drastically, if need be. The only language these petulant understand is ruthless force, otherwise why have they never attacked any Russian embassy any where? Imagine a militia saying that they rubbed America's nose in the dirt with the attack in Baghdad and you wonder if these guys have any better thing they do with their time and life. 

A very ungrateful bunch who could not remove Saddam Hussein from power until America stepped in and did it for them. They couldn't stop ISIS from nearly overrunning their country until America did it for them. Yet they always attack America as their problem. The worst part is their government's involvement in this attack. Iraqi security forces did not allow Iraqi protesters who have been protesting against the government since October last year to breach the Green Zone, so what changed with the militia that attacked the United States embassy inside the same Green Zone. The same Iraqi government vehemently condemned the United States Air strikes but has yet to condemn the attack on the American embassy with the same vehemence. 

ICHEOKU says enough of the niceties as only a strong response will resonate with this two countries, who are now joined at the hip as foes of the United States of America and should be treated as one.

JOHN LEWIS: HE HAD A GOOD RUN.

ICHEOKU says rather than being sad, let us celebrate the Congressman from the Great State of Georgia John Robert Lewis for  a life well lived in the service of others. At nearly 80 years old, he lived a good life and we should treasure and celebrate whatever is left of it; as pancreas cancer is a killer disease that has no known cure. 

Apple founder Steve Jobs succumbed to the disease and so did Patrick Swayze; and any of them would have lived if it was something that money could be thrown at. Jeopardy host Alex Trebek is similarly afflicted with the disease. But medical science is not there yet, so until then, we can only wish the Congressman peace of the mind as he awaits the inevitable. Although miracles do still happen and as the Congressman said, he does not want to die; but also conceded that we all live to die someday and should pray for a less painful and less scary experience when the time arrives. 

It was with a heart filled with concern that ICHEOKU received the news of his affliction and that it is at a valedictory stage 4. ICHEOKU wishes Georgia's 6th District Representative John Robert Lewis well as he awaits the outcome; and adds that history will write him well as a voice against injustice and oppression. As a young man, he did not keep quiet when circumstance called and he stood up to be counted. He never wavered nor looked back ever since and has remained front and center in speaking out against all forms of injustices. May God bless him and keep him comfortable and consoled; and make the end as peaceful as possible when the hour strikes.

TRUMP WINS IN 2020 - MICHAEL MOORE

"There’s no question in my mind that people who stayed home, who sat on the bench in 2016, are going to pour out in 2020, in California, New York and — you know, but also in Texas and other places that Trump will probably win again. 

The problem is that he will, I believe, win the electoral states that he would need to win the presidency, because, living out there, I will tell you, his level of support has not gone down one inch. In fact, I’d say it’s even more rabid now than it was before. They are voracious in their appetite for more Donald Trump. That’s the bad news.” - Michael Moore. 

ICHEOKU says translation, Michael Moore has no faith in even his candidate who he endorsed, Bernie Sanders; and have literally surrendered; having conceded the election to President Donald John Trump, stating that the Democrats are wasting their time by even running in 2020. Well articulated. Four more years for PDJT, unopposed!

MICHAEL BLOOMBERG: NOT ELECTABLE, WILL NOT BE ELECTED.

ICHEOKU says Michael Rubens Bloomberg will not be elected president of the United States of America, not in 2020 and not at any other future time, ever. He will not even win the Democratic Party's presidential primaries nomination. He does not have the electability requisites, necessarily required of a candidate seeking the highest office in the land. He does not have the "it" factors, if one must be told. 

These barriers are somewhat insurmountable because they are inbred; he was born with them. They are above and beyond what money can wish away, that all the money to his name cannot override them. Put in another way, there is nothing he can do to get around or overcome them. As men of yore would put it, they are in his stars. The constellation and firmament are not favorably disposed to his presidential ambition that were it in Las Vegas betting circa, the odds of his winning the presidency of the United States of America will be practically, a non existent zero. 

Michael Bloomberg is a victim of certain circumstances which are beyond mitigation; and the sooner he adjust to the reality that he has embarked on a mission impossible and cannot be elected president of the United States of America, the better for him. He is an accomplished man by any standards measured. He is also a billionaire, fifty times over that money will not be a problem in prosecuting a campaign for the presidency. He was also a successful three terms Mayor of New York. So, ordinarily, he would make a good president; but to become president he has to first be elected president except that he cannot be elected president. 

He was able to accomplish the many things to his resume due to his personal abilities and doggedness. He also did not need nor required anyone's approval or consent to achieve  them. But winning the presidency of the United States of America is different as it requires the approval and consent of the American people which they give with their votes. A candidate for president must therefore first win the hearts and minds of millions of American people from across the 50 States and territories; and then come up tops in the number of Electoral College votes won in order to become president. 

Michael Bloomberg does not have what it takes to accomplish this. He does not possess   what it takes to engender himself in the hearts of the American voting public. He lacks what it takes to win a nation wide presidential election, his three terms New York mayoral election victories notwithstanding. A presidential election requires a different set of appeal than a City election because different, broader spectrum of voters are involved and to reach them, requires a different self appeal and politicking calculus. Also, while a lot of money can help him get some mileage, it will not carry him into the White House. This is where the likability factor comes in, the proverbial booster rocket which propels a candidate into the White House. 

American people love their country and they want a candidate who indeed truly loves America as they do; and who will work his or her hardest to keep his focus primarily on America. But Michael Bloomberg is a well known globalist who has been unabashedly pushing his globalist liberalism agenda for a long time. If elected, he will like to see Brussels play an increased role in America affairs and will also submit America's defense initiative under NATO control. He will also like the United Nations to have more control over America, especially America's foreign affairs initiatives. American people like their position in the world and will not like to surrender America's sovereignty to any world body. This makes Michael Bloomberg an impossible candidate to sell to rural and the fly over country, as well as to millions of other patriotic Americans on both coasts.  

But the number one reason Michael Bloomberg is unelectable is that he is Jewish. A Jew cannot and will not ever be elected president of America, at least not in this lifetime. The suspicion of them runs deep within the American society. Al Gore lost the 2000 presidential election in part because he chose Joseph Lieberman, a well known, unapologetic, orthodox Jew as his Vice Presidential candidate. American people are not ready to hand over the White House to the Jews and voted to reject Joseph Lieberman, afraid that the Jews will find a way to remove Al Gore and make way for Joe Lieberman to assume the presidency. 

American people did not want to take any chances whatsoever with such happenstance, no matter how remote the possibility;  so they concluded that voting for Al Gore will amount to tempting fate and went for Bush/Cheney. American people were not ready for such a possibility of a Jewish president in 2000 and they will not be ready for such a full frontal affront in 2020 either. In short, American people will never be ready for a Jewish president no matter however long in the future. There are so many stereotypes about  them which still persists and remains prevalent within the American society which makes other ethnicities in America overtly wary of them. 

Many American people do not like Jews enough to want any of them near the White House in a presidential capacity. Not black people, not white people, not Arabs, not Muslims, not Chinese, not Asians, not Hispanics and of course, not Christians and other peoples of faith. These Americans view the Jews with deep suspicion, afraid that nobody knows exactly what the Jewish are really about and up to; and what they could possibly do if given the presidency. The suspicion of the Jews is still quite prevalent within every micro cultural ethnicity in America and handing them the ultimate political power in America, in addition to other powers which they already hold, is simply unthinkable. It will not happen.

Many Americans complain about the too much influence which Jewish people exact over America, both internally and externally, particularly in fashioning America's foreign policy objectives. Many of these Americans are chagrined that the Jews have taken over nearly every aspect of the America society and are literally running practically everything. An open secret subject of private conversations and discussions, admitted not readily talked about openly for fear of being branded anti Semitic.

For instance, when Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton angrily use certain smear to denote the Jews, they are saying out loudly what millions of black Americans are thinking of and saying privately about the Jewish people. When white supremacists rage against Jews and their synagogues, they are venting bottled anger in millions of white people who see the Jews as contemptible. When Arabs take up arms against the Jews they are incensed that the Jews wants it all. 

Usually, Asians and Hispanics always cautiously follow the lead of the others, especially the two principal racial groups in America and will not vote for a Jew either. Of course, Christians who still hold Jews responsible for the killing of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, will shun any Jewish candidate for president. These Americans will rally together to stop any Jew from taking over the White House, especially one who is practically Orthodox and as unapologetically Jewish as any rabbi in Jerusalem. 

Michael Bloomberg was born Jewish; he went to Jewish School; he practises Bar Mitzvah; he maintains Kosher Kitchen and he attends Synagogue. He is Jewish to the core, such that borders on orthodoxy. American people will not vote to elect a Jew as their president. It will not happen. Voting for Michael Bloomberg is akin to asking Bibi Netanyahu to move from Jerusalem to Washington DC to become the president of America. America is too much of a Christian country to hand over the White House to a Jewish man. It will not happen, period. 

Another reason Michael Bloomberg will not be elected president is that he is too short for an American president. His diminutive stature is a huge negative for him. Since the 60s, Hollywood and television have taken over practically every aspect of American lives, including how they vote. Image and optics are now everything in who gets voted into office, particularly the presidency. Americans vote for the person they will like to usher into their homes for dinner or go out for a drink with. Voting has become a way for channeling our inner desires and short people are not usually any body's first choice. Just take the count from John F. Kennedy, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter,  Ronald Reagan, George Bush Sr,  Bill Clinton, George Bush Jr, Barack Obama and now Donald John Trump. They all have one thing in common, they are all tall fellas and above six feet tall. But Michael Bloomberg merely made it out of dwarfism and not tall enough for an American president.

Also an American president, as the leader of the free world, is expected to project strength, authority and power; and nothing does this better than a tall fella. Such an American president must be tall enough to look down on the heads of other world leaders and breath down heavily on them, if and when he must. But at a mere petite 5' 8" tall, Michael Bloomberg is not tall enough for an American president and is rather too short to stand tall as a world leader. Put in another way, Michael Bloomberg is barely as tall as Anthony Scaramucci and American people do not vote Lilliputians for president.

The next reason Michael Bloomberg will not be elected president is that he is a bachelor-divorcee. He is not married and has no First Lady in the waiting, assuming in the most unlikely event he miraculously wins. Michael Bloomberg has no wife who will become America's First Lady, a position which has grown in such significance that it has become an integral part of the presidency. Such a vacuum will not be tolerated, especially not by American women who have since been participating in presidential governance through the office of the First Lady. American women will vote to reject such a man without a wife and by extension, no First Lady, as their president and Michael Bloomberg has no wife. 

For those who may counter by saying that Pete Buttgieg also has no wife who would occupy the office of the First Lady should he magically win, ICHEOKU says he has a wife, a male wife; admitted he too will not satisfy the need to have a Lady in the White House. American women will not accept a First Man in place of the traditional First Lady or to fulfill the role normally reserved for a female presidential spouse. The argument will be that President Pete Buttigieg is already the First Man and having another First Man or two First Men in the White House is an anomaly. Such will deprive American women their rightful representation in the White House; unlike if there was a female president, in which case it will be Madam President and the First Man. Cory Booker is similarly disqualified as well.

The fifth reason Michael Bloomberg will not be elected president is that he will not win the nomination of the Democratic Party and will not have a platform to run on. He is not a bona fide member of the Democratic Party and will not be allowed to purchase the nomination of the party. He was a member of the Republican Party all his life, although he once nursed the Independent idea and now wants to buy the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party. But unlike the Republican Party which is an all comers party, a truly democratic party in the real sense of it; the Democratic Party is democratic in name only and controlled by henchmen and women, who farms out positions to only trusted underlying. It is a party where respect to party's hierarchy is demanded and ruthlessly maintained. 

Those folks who call the shots in the Democratic Party will, when the time comes, remind Michael Bloomberg that he is a charlatan who is not welcomed to their party. They will not allow him to hijack their party's presidential ticket, it will not happen. Bernie Sanders learned it the hard way in 2016 when he was rigged out of the presidential primaries, mainly because he was an Independent and not one of them. But whether Bernie Sanders re-registered as a Democrat or is still running as an Independent socialist, ICHEOKU does not know; but says it was his Achilles heels in 2016. Bernie, not being a party member and proven party loyalist, the Democrats top guns couldn't trust him with their party's presidential ticket. 

Further, Michael Bloomberg insulted all the Democratic presidential candidates when he  said that the reason he entered the race is because none of them can beat President Donald John Trump. ICHEOKU says if they cannot, what makes Michael Bloomberg the giant slayer or does he think Ross Perot did not have enough money when he tried? It is height of arrogance and the Democratic Party must frown at such condescending put down of their candidates. Unless the Democratic Party's presidential nomination is now a commodity with a price tag, Michael Bloomberg must not be allowed to purchase the nomination. He should be rejected and told to take a hike as his attempt to buy the nomination is also an insult to the Democratic Party ideals as presidential nomination is not and should not ever be for sale. He also feels that he is too big to be in the primaries.

ICHEOKU says the seventh reason Michael Bloomberg will not be elected president is that a major voting bloc of the Democratic Party, black Americans, do not like him and will not vote for him. Michael Bloomberg is not down with the struggle and he repeatedly showed this during his time as Mayor of New York. His  "Stop and Frisk" mostly affected black people, who were frequently targeted for stops and intrusive searches. Many of them ended up in arrest, incarceration, loss of jobs, separation from families and friends. Will they ever forgive Michael Bloomberg for this, ICHEOKU says does not think so. Then add Michael Bloomberg's penchant for always telling people what to do: his control of the size of soda drinks which Americans can buy in New York City. He also banned smoking.  

Anyway for a man who said that China is a democracy, may be he wishes to also control American people the same way the Chinese Communist Party controls the Chinese people, completely emasculated and fully shackled. Then add his remarks that poor people should be kept poor for their own good; and recently the disclosure that his campaign is using cheap prison labor for their robot calls. But there is some good that came out of his running for president. It is a good opportunity for redistribution of some of his wealth. At least some people will benefit and make some money working for the campaign. On which note, ICHEOKU welcomes Mayor Michael Bloomberg's participation in the Democratic Party's presidential primaries. At least he will get an honorable mention as an also ran presidential candidate. 

CHRISTIANITY TODAY: MARK GALLI'S CHRISTIANITY IS NOT OF CHRIST.

ICHEOKU says how can any sane person, especially one allegedly following in the footsteps of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ ever diminish the killing of Christians enemy number one Abu al Baghdadi and making it and all the other accomplishments of President Donald John Trump, lesser than a mere telephone call to Ukraine. A matter made worse because this fella did not even condemn the corruption of Joe Biden and son Hunter Biden, but went through the same selective indignation talking point, that the president asked for the investigation of his political opponent. 

ICHEOKU says but the crime which led to the requested investigation is being ignored by all these hack partisans, who have chosen to ignore and refused to address it. If the president asked for the investigation of his political opponent, what did his political opponent do that warrants looking into? But a fella who is supposedly a Christian, conveniently decided to overlook the underlying criminal act, the precursor to the requested investigation; yet wants American people to believe that he acted without malice to the president in writing his editorial from hell. 

If the president had political opponents in mind when he requested the investigation of the Biden father and son corruption duo, he would have started with investigating Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton, afterall she did a lot of dirty deeds involving Ukrainian officials. The accusation is made more more disheartening because President Donald John Trump does not need any Ukrainian help to trounce the infirmities of old age afflicted Joe Biden; not after what he did to the Clinton and Bush family political dynasties, as well as a sitting President Barack Obama in 2016. ICHEOKU says demolishing mentally depreciated Joe Biden will be a piece of cake and walk in the park as Joe is not a formidable opponent.

But all these anti Trump and Never Trumpers Deep Staters want American people to believe that the reason the president asked the Ukrainian president to "do us a favor" is to help him defeat Joe Biden. Who has Joe Biden ever defeated in any election outside Delaware that now makes him such an indomitable political foe that would require an Ukrainian help to vanquish? This fella got his head all screwed up for demeaning all that the president has done for both Christians and the American people; putting them in the thrash and beneath his imaginary moral turpitude of the president. 

What would Jesus do faced with similar circumstances? ICHEOKU says Jesus would look at the apparent reason for the requested investigation and would also condemn the crime of Joe Biden and son Hunter Biden. Jesus would also not waste his time second guessing a political motive, because what Joe Bide and his son Hunter Biden did is apparent and it is a criminal act. Crimes are usually investigated and that should be the foundational reason for the requested investigation, period. 

But this fella latched unto an already litigated past indiscretions of the president to pounce on him with his sanctimonious holier than thou inanities. Where was his Christian faith in repentance and forgiveness of sins not to know that the president has changed from his old ways and now professes Christianity. Saul was murdering Christians before God called him and made him Paul; ditto Mary Magdalene the prostitute and Matthew the tax collector. Our Lord Jesus said in Mark 2:17 that he did not come for those who are well, but that the sick may get salvation. The Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32 teaches us about new beginning; and that it is not how long our sins lasted that is important, but that we are able to overcome it and face the way that leads to righteousness. 

God is happier with a repented sinner than a sinner who perpetually confesses his unwillingness to change course or literary declares him or herself an unbelieving atheist and agnostic who will be happy to burn in hell like Ronald Reagan Jr. So, while angels live in heaven and will not come down on earth to govern mankind, a repented sinner will always be the nearest best thing, a better and preferred alternative to preside over us. The realization by a sinner to sin no more or to identify certain things as sinful is always a good acceptable first step and this imperative makes President Donald John Trump good enough and a perfect president for the United States of America. 

At least the president identifies himself as a Christian and aligns himself with the school of thought that proclaims killing of babies is sinful. The president have in addition, taken many steps to reduce infanticides rates at abortion clinics that festoon the land, as well as those overseas, by cutting funds to them. The president have thus established his full credentials as a Christian bona fides and beyond any shadow of doubt. This fella should have taken it into consideration before embarking on his wild goose chase to crucify an innocent man whose sins were washed away a long time ago, following his acceptance of Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

ICHEOKU says who does this fella want as president or does he prefer and wishes that Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton had won? Who would he choose from the pack of the Democratic Party candidates currently jostling for an opportunity to run for the office, that is less immoral than the president, when all of them support the killing of babies. How would Matthew 19:14 be fulfilled when babies are being slaughtered in abortion clinics in America with these peoples' support, consent and approval? 

It is not just about Mark Galli stipulating what Mayor Pete Buttigieg calls setting a purist test which nobody can pass, but under the circumstances in which we found ourselves in America, where religiosity is fast fading to the background, who would he have preferred as president. In casting stone against the president, he forgot the admonition of Jesus Christ in John 8:7 and Luke 6:37, yet he is a Christian and hates like sin. 

Would he have preferred those who are ashamed of Christianity or a president who at least still professes Christianity? Would he prefer those who hate to be perceived as having any relationship with Christianity to a president who still publicly identifies with Christianity, in view of what Jesus said in Luke 8:50. Would this fella have preferred those who would rather see Christianity wiped off the face of the earth to a president who has done more for and to protect Christianity than all his predecessors put together. Would he prefer those who argue that Crosses and religious symbols should be taken down from public spaces and that God must be taken out of schools, government and even our lives, to a president who is a staunch advocate of God's supremacy in our lives and society. 

Mr Mark Galli should remember too that nobody is perfect and that an angel will not come down from heaven to occupy the White House. So our option is limited to what we have available; and when left to choose between two evils, the lesser evil is always the play. If we cannot get 100%, at least 75% is good enough; instead of 0% or at most 21%. We deal with what we are given and if lemons, we make lemonades; but without citrus, we cannot make any drink. 

But Mark Galli did not write any morality editorial against nor called for Pete Buttigieg, an openly homosexual gay man running for president, to drop out of the race because gaydom is immoral. Ditto Virginia Governor Ralph Northam who killed babies and advocated for the killing of fully formed babies, who has not been similarly excoriated by Mark Galli's editorial, calling for his removal from office. 

Certain things are just crass politics and so obvious, so subjective. ICHEOKU says unless Mark Galli is presenting his holier than thou self in next year's presidential election as a candidate, his call for the removal of the president is rather presumptuous, baseless, faulty and lacking in every objectivity. He kept silent for more than three years and suddenly now wants the president removed from office with less than ten months to go; and you ask yourself why not wait for the election that is almost here. But Mark Galli is part of the swamp and was only kowtowing the directive of the Deep State to editorialize for the removal the president now, otherwise he will win a reelection on November 3rd, 2020. 

If according to Mark Galli, the Christian Today's usual approach is to stay above the fray of politics, what suddenly changed that made them to dive headlong into politics now? Were the founder of Christian Today, Bill Graham, alive today, would he concur with the editorial opinion which Mark Galli put up on CT? A hit job piece which Bill Graham's son, Franklin Graham, has already repudiated as not being what his father would have appreciated. 

Like the crazy Nancy Pelosi who always intones "I pray for the president", albeit sarcastically; Mark Galli claims that he loves and prays for the president; yet he called the president immoral and wants him removed from office. Query, what is so "immoral" in the president asking for the investigation of a crime committed by Joe Biden that deserves his being removed from office? With a love like Mark Galli's, the president does need any other hatred. Speaking of "loving" the president, where was Mark Galli's condemnation of the House Democrats rushed impeachment of the president, after what Mark Galli himself acknowledged was a hatchet job, done without giving the president any opportunity to defend himself? 

ICHEOKU says it becomes much doubtful to believe that Mark Galli is indeed a true follower of Jesus Christ, if after his reading of the telephone transcript he still came to the conclusion that the president "attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit the president's political opponent." 

Where was the coercion in the transcript and where was the harassment solicited for? Instead of condemning what Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden did to Ukraine, extortion and bribery, which ordinarily are against Christianity teachings and values, the real McCoy of immoral acts, this fella is channeling the liberal talking point "the president want to investigate his political opponent." They calculatedly maintain a blind eye to the crimes of the Biden father and son duo; but are rather more interested in hounding a president for merely asking that the crime be investigated. So what manner of a Christian is this Mark Galli who selectively chooses what to condemn as immoral or is extortion and bribery now morally acceptable by his brand of Christianity as virtuous? 

ICHEOKU says from the litany of mark Galli's complaints against the president and which he considers "immoral", it is obvious that political motivation cannot be completely excluded nor ruled out from his editorial hit piece. So what, if the president mistakenly hired some people with questionable characters? What is imperative and of paramount character content is what the president did upon learning of their not so kosher history. He did the right thing, as would any good moral person; he fired them. That is what good people do, they react appropriately when unfolding circumstances produce facts of consequences which forces a change of mind. 

It is also farcical for Mark Galli to falsely claim that the president "remains proud" of some of his past indiscretions, especially when there is no evidence to that effect. This further shows that his editorial piece in Christianity Today was purposely crafted to impugn, malign and disparage the president. Possibly, Mark Galli is the latest hire of the Deep State in their attempt to get the president; believing that his Christian background as editor of Christianity Today gives him some air of credibility and believability. 

The Deep State's thinking must be that American people would say since it was in Christianity Today, it must therefore be true and therefore the president should be removed from office. But once again, their attempt to break the bond which exists between the president and the American people, particularly those who identify themselves as evangelical Christians, will fail woefully because American people are smarter than all the tricks the Deep Staters are playing to ensnare them. 

Further, whatever relationships the president had with women were in the past and long before he became president. So why would Mark Galli suddenly decide to resurrect them now as one reason in his editorial piece why he wants the president removed from office. This alone defeats his argument of lack of bias and unmasks his pretentiousness on his real motive for the editorial hit job. Why dredge up things that happened over several decades ago which has been previously conclusively litigated before American people and use it to attack the president as if they just happened. 

Where was Mark Galli when all of these allegations were still fleshly unfolding during the 2016 election campaign? Where was Mark Galli's editorial in condemnation of Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton deleting and bleach-washing of 33,000 subpoenaed emails. Mark Galli also attacked the president's Twitter presence as a "habitual strings of mischaracterizations, lies and slanders" and he has no basis for this subjective opinion.  Now, can somebody please tell ICHEOKU that this fella is not actively working for the Democratic Party or would any rational person attribute an impartial  clear conscience to this editorial piece?  Now, he is mislabeling the president's Twitter use and asking that he be removed from office for exercising his freedom of speech right.

Mark Galli is a partisan hack and a hired gun of the Deep State. imagine his claim that the impeachment hearings made it "absolutely clear" that Trump abused his office; when the same Mark Galli in a previous paragraph of his editorial, admitted that the president was not allowed representation or the ability to defend himself during the impeachment persecution. Then ask yourself, how then could the same skewed impeachment hearings make the president's culpability "absolutely clear", when the president never defended nor was allowed to rebut any of the trumped up charges against him. What manner of judgment call is this, when in one hand, Mark Galli is giving and with the other hand, taking the same thing he was giving; and still shamelessly passes judgment in condemnation of the president, based on this set of consequential facts. 

This fella was also ready to dismiss all the record accomplishments of the president as pale, in comparison to a mere telephone call with Ukrainian president; including a fabulous economy, two Supreme Court Justices, Veterans Act, Prison reform, Abu Baghdadi killed, ISIS decimation, numerous trade deals etc. ICHEOKU says just listen to his characterization of the president, "None of the president's positives can balance the moral and political danger we face under a leader of such "grossly immoral character." ICHEOKU says if this man is not a card carrying Democrat, nobody else is; and it is obvious from his language and carefully chosen words that he is a liberal nut job masquerading as an evangelist. 

He did not even give the president credit for being an exception to his assertion that "politicians are notorious for breaking campaign promises"; the president having kept nearly all his campaign promises plus more. Also his attempt to make a comparison with what led to Bill Clinton's 1998 impeachment is another example of his being economical with the truth. Bill Clinton actually committed a crime of perjury; unlike Trump who merely asked for a crime to be investigated, which is not a crime by itself. 

Unlike Bill Clinton, President Donald John Trump did not lie about the phone call nor asked anybody to lie about it. He also released the transcript of the phone call in addition for everybody to see what transpired and there was nothing impeachable therein. Also, Bill Clinton was not impeached for having sex in the White House with an intern Monica Lewinsky; no, he was impeached for lying about it and for asking other people to lie about it. A perjury and suborning perjury, two definitive crimes. 

So, where is the moral equivalence which Mark Galli was desperately trying to make between Bill Clinton's impeachment and the telephone call which President Trump made to the Ukrainian president. Where was the breach of trust by the president or the crime he allegedly committed by asking that a criminal act of the Biden father and son corruption duo be investigated?  Imagine Mark Galli making such an over-broad statement, "unsavory dealings and immoral acts by the president and those close to him have rendered this administration unable to lead"; and you ask yourself how many "unsavory dealings and immoral acts" occurred? 

This fella is supposedly a Christian and he is making things up like Adam Schiff. Who even made this fella the whisperer in chief of the American people who elected President Trump and put him in office, to know what American people want by calling for the removal of their president from office. How dare him? How can this man even compare the evil of abortions to a character flaw which he hyped as "blackened, bent and broken"; aware that no man or woman is infallible or was he expecting a Messiah in the White House. 

ICHEOKU says good enough Mr Mark Galli subsequently confessed that he is not a Trump supporter and has merely been tolerating the feelings and opinions of those evangelical Christians who are supporters of the president. In his own words, "we have done our best to give evangelical Trump supporters their due, to try to understand their point of view, to see the prudential nature of so many political decisions they have made regarding Trump." Unfortunately, it would seem that Mr Mark Galli, like his other fellow Never Trumpers, facing an inevitable Trump's reelection on November 3rd, 2020, could not take it anymore and he decided on an outburst.

A pitiful partisan and a Never Trumper extraordinaire; yet some people are attaching some merit, relevance and importance to his editorial piece and passing it off as gospel and reflective of the evangelical community in America. ICHEOKU says far be it that Mark Galli speaks for the evangelical community in America. It will be akin to CNN speaking for American people when only about 300,000 Americans including those held hostage to CNN at airports, less than 0.3% of the population, tune in to their hogwash fake news propaganda nightly.

Anyway, the other good news is that editorial opinions do not generally reflect American people's sentiments and thinking; nor do they affect anything American people do. The numerous editorial opinions in 2016 did not sway American people in the 2016 election, otherwise Queen Crooked Hillary Clinton would be in the White House today. ICHEOKU recalls that in 2016, practically every newspaper and magazine of record in America editorialized against electing Donald John Trump and urged American people not to vote for him. But on the night of November 8th, 2016, American people told them to stuff it in their you know where and took their country back from globalists, anti America forces who were bent on humiliating America. 

ICHEOKU says the patriotic fervor displayed by American people with their votes on November 8th, 2016 will be reenacted in 2020. As it was in 2016, so shall it be repeated in 2020. American people have seen in President Donald John Trump that their decision in 2016 was the right one and that they did not make a mistake. Therefore, regardless of what this creepy editor of Christianity Today wishes, President Donald John Trump will not be removed from office and he will win the November 3rd 2020 presidential election, his reelection for a second term. What a jerk Mark Galli is, a hack partisan, anti Trump Never Trumper liberal Democrat and a stooge of the Deep State, who does not mean well for America. it is delightful that he has tendered his resignation or is it retirement; good riddance; away with him and his editorial opinion.

IMPEACHMENT TRIAL: NANCY PELOSI MUST NOT BE ALLOWED A DO OVER.

ICHEOKU says Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi had all the time and opportunity in the world to get her acts right, together and conduct a fair and transparent impeachment of the president but bungled it. She rush through a sham impeachment to ensure that House Democrats voted before the holidays, when they would have had the opportunity to hear from their constituents, who do not want the president impeached and thus would have voted differently or like Tulsi Gabbard voted present. 

But Madam Speaker was under heavy pleasure from LGBTQ and other crazed out, wild eyed, liberal donors and activists wing of the Democratic Party, who wanted the president impeached and needed such deliverable tendered immediately, before they can continue bankrolling the Democratic Party. She caved in and the result was an impeachment that was technically no impeachment at all; and thus embarrassed, Madam Speaker is trying to fix the impeachment by demanding a restart of the impeachment hearing and probably  its investigation, de novo in the Senate. Nobody forced nor pressured her to rush through the impeachment and if in fact she needed more witnesses and evidence, she would have allowed the courts to rule on the motions before it on the legality of the president not providing some witnesses and producing some documents which were requested by the House of Representatives. 

But Madam Speaker decided to ignore what is a normal process of adjudicating issues and controversies in courts and went forth to impeach the president with whatever evidence she had and considered sufficient. Therefore it begs the question why she is now asking that more witnesses be called in the Senate, which technically shows that she impeached the president with insufficient evidence, when she should not have done so. Madam Speaker is trying so desperately to tele-guide and dictate to the Senate on how to do its job of conducting the impeachment trail, by insisting that certain assurances be given to her before she will transmit the Articles of Impeachment to them. Madam Speaker is contravening an imperative under the law of impeachment, which designates the Senate as the exclusive legislative chamber to conduct the trial of an impeached president. It also did not condition this duty on the emotional foibles of Madam Speaker. 

Therefore, what Madam Speaker is trying to do, seeking to usurp the duty of the Senate, is unprecedented; and must not be allowed to stand, otherwise she will be setting yet another bad precedent where the lower House of Representatives now controls and dictates to the upper House, Senate. Such an obfuscation was never intended by the founding fathers who bequeathed on the Senate the calming powers over sometimes impulsive acts of an otherwise ever restive Congress. Madam Speaker has already set a bad precedent when she drastically lowered the bar and threshold for impeachment by impeaching the president for a perfect phone call and should not be allowed to increase the tally of such bad precedents, by illegally withholding the Articles of Impeachment, pending a reciprocity that meets her desires. 

Under no circumstance are the powers of the House of Representatives superior to the Senate's, particularly on matter of impeachment of the president; and Madam Speaker will not be allowed to manufacture such an adjunct powers now. Except Madam Speaker is tardy, she should have since appointed the House managers of the impeachment trial and as soon as she flagged off the impeachment hearing. They should have been waiting to spring it over to the Senate as soon as the votes were affirmative. Madam Speaker must therefore not be allowed to make it up as she goes, because there are rules and precedents governing an impeachment of a president as this is not the first time the House ever impeached a president. It is either she conforms or the impeachment is a dud, since it never made it to the Senate as required by the Constitution. 

Madam Speakers' powers over the impeachment ended when the votes to impeach the president were tallied and collated. Thereafter, the power over the conduct of the trial of the impeached president automatically vests in the Senate. Therefore, Madam Speaker holding over the Articles of Impeachment is ultra vires her powers as Speaker, as she has no right to do so, period. What she is doing by withholding the Articles of Impeachment amounts to usurpation of powers of the Senate, which she is denying their constitutionally vested authority to sit in judgment over an impeached president. If Madam Speaker wants to "unimpeach" the president, that will be a different thing; but having already impeached the president, she must comply forthwith and without more or preconditions or demands, to the law, by transmitting the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. 

This is a non negotiable duty of the Speaker; it is imperative and not subject to any qualifications whatsoever. Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi overreached herself and arbitrary extended her authority by demanding that the Senate provide her their template for conducting the trial, their duty, of the president before she will release the Articles of Impeachment to them. Madam Speaker is not doing the Senate a favor by complying with a requirement of the Constitution and her present stand off amounts to a shakedown and blackmail; aka the quid pro quo and bribery which she accused the president of. A duty is an obligation and not a privilege which is discretionary and demands absolutism in compliance. So Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi has no basis both in fact and law as well as precedents, to take the Articles of Impeachment hostage to her whims and caprices. 

Therefore Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi must do her duty and transmit the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate pronto; and without any further ado or delay, regardless of how she feels about its destined outcome. Unfortunately for Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi and luckily for American people, Charles Schumer is not the Senate Majority Leader; so justice will be done to the unjust impeachment and the president will be set free. ICHEOKU never knew how crazed out this woman is until this impeachment hoopla assumed a life. Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi is a crazed out, wild eyed, feminist numero uno from the foremost liberal American City of San Francisco and has left nobody in doubt that her credentials were well earned. The woman is a handful and indeed something else; which reminds ICHEOKU of the funny way she stretched her hands and formed her hands when she was clapping for the president at the last State of the Union address. Simply incredible and mired in incredulity.
