America has become a "banana republic" where everything goes...

The founding fathers were motivated to leave Europe because they did not want to live under a King. They wanted to be led by leaders who are equal under the law, who are not above the law, who respect the rule of law... Leaders who will not appoint their children to plum positions in government. Who will not appoint people whose main qualification is that they are their in-laws. They will not pardon their loyalists who have broken the law or their in-laws. They will not pardon their friends. They will not pardon their son and retroactively apply the law to the last ten years... From Trump to now, Biden, American Presidency has been soiled...

Soon, the nation will inaugurate the first convicted felon as president... That seat in the White House is stained forever because any element can aspire into that office, so long they can lie their way there... These are dangerous precedents and put the entire humanity in jeopardy..That is the most powerful seat in our world today, take it or leave it. When an inherently corrupt man leads a nation, he will abuse the power of the office...

I am disappointed that President Biden took the step he took yesterday, by pardoning his son. It is fair to say the convictions were politically motivated because his opponents allegedly orchestrated the theft of his son's laptop. If someone steals Trump Jr.'s laptop now, what are we going to find there? Those close to the seat of power can attest that the rich and powerful always have their hands full of blood. Jerry Kushner lied twice on a federal security background check form before he was made special envoy to the Middle East. That was what Biden's son was convicted of. He lied about hard drug use when he wanted to purchase a gun... At most, it should have been a misdemeanor... The tax conviction is frivolous as well... Trump escaped going to jail for a similar offense in NY... I wish Biden never set the stage for Trump to pardon all January 6 rioters whose actions led to the death of many...

The founders knew the system they created was not perfect, so they said it is an experiment that would forever need fine-tuning. Unfortunately, that tuning is skewed for the worse not for the better... I hope there will be a leader in the future who will restore the dignity of the American democracy... One can only imagine the atrocities that will ensue in the next four years if Trump's first four years were to be the yardstick...

This is Cacophony at Best...

MAGA destroyed DEI but they want to implement DEI at Harvard... They claim the school is not diverse enough. They have too many liberals, so they need to hire more conservative, whether they meet the hiring requirement or survive the rigor of delivering excellence at Harvard or not. This is what they claim DEI is all about - hiring people based on race, they claim, but they have no issue telling Harvard to hire based on political ideology.... You read the same thing about BLM and Antisemitism. They say BLM reflects poorly on the history of America... Critical race theory is false history... slaves loved being in captivity, they loved their masters and served willingly... there is no more discrimination based on the color of your skin in America - but all the metrics point in the opposite direction... Jewish Lives Matter; Black Lives Matter, and Palestinian Lives Matter... All Lives Matter. A terrorist life should not be equal to 20 innocent Palestinian life... It is okay to forget abou...

Until Ordinary Nigerians Seize the Power that Belongs to them, There Will Not Be Progress in That Country

  Until Ordinary Nigerians Seize the Power that Belongs to them, There Will Not Be Progress in That Country When I see the shameful drama unfolding in the Senate in Nigeria, I see impunity. When those who are supposedly elected into political offices are abusing the power they hold in trust for the rest of us in daylight, then you know they have no fear of the electorate... The Senate President in Nigeria, Akpabio, forced a motion that obviously failed, down the throat of his colleagues... The motion was to humiliate Senator Natasha and force her to apologize for daring to accuse Akpabio of alleged sexual harassment before she is re-admitted to the senate after serving the unlawful six-month suspension imposed on her. What saddens me the most are the fellow female senators who have either kept quiet or have reprimanded Senator Natasha for speaking out, including the wife of the president, Remi Tinubu, who faced many sexist comments and threats when she was a senator. Remi Tinubu wa...
