Powerless President: Why Donald Trump will be remembered by Americans for ages

Hate him or love him, but outgoing US president Donald Trump will go down the annals of the world history as a leader who was impeached twice during his stint as the head of a super power. He will also be remembered as a president who used Twitter as his major medium of communication.

The president has faced many woes during his twilight days in office.

During the second impeachment, 232 lawmakers voted in support of his impeachment. 10 Republicans were among those who voted to impeach Trump, making the impeachment process as the most bipartisan one in the recent times. Donald Trump made history as the US President to be impeached twice. 

Speaker Nancy Pelosi led the congress as the House debated on the impeachment charges. The president was charged with inciting insurrection that led to Capitol assault. The attack led to the postponement of the certification of Biden’s win by the US congress. Earlier on after the attack, Mr Trump acknowledged bearing blame for the violence as quoted by Fox News during a conversation with Republican Minority leader in the House Kevin McCarthy.

Trump was banned from giant social media platforms; Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, due to his persistent breach of online policies. He constantly used Twitter to hit at his rival, Joe Biden, accusing Democrats of orchestrating election fraud.

His ban on social media triggered him to accuse twitter for the alleged conspiracy with his detractors to silence him. He, however, hinted about developing his own social media. Most of Trump’s supporters have found relief on gab.com, a site that supports free speech.

Why Matiang'i comeback threatens Ruto's re-election bid

Matiang'i is set to give Ruto a run for his money, owing to his track record as a cabinet secretary in the previous regime.  Former President Uhuru Kenyatta trusted Matiang'i more than any other cabinet secretary due to his workaholic nature and might be forced to finance his presidential quest.  The former Interior CS is reportedly eyeing the presidential seat on a Jubilee ticket, as alluded by the party's secretary general Jeremiah Kioni. Ruto's dalliance with the doyen of opposition politics and ODM party leader Raila Odinga had complicated the opposition's quest to unseat the sitting Head of State. Matiang'i comeback seals the vaccum left by Raila's departure. Why Ruto might lose Kenya's presidential seat in 2027 Ahead of 2022 general elections in Kenya , President William Ruto promised Kenyans heaven on Earth onl...

Public Seal transfer: Inside Ruto's plot to secretly sell State Parastatals

  The reason why the Public Seal was allegedly transferred from the Attorney General office to the Chief of Staff in the office of the President of Kenya is yet to be known with quite a number of contradictory remarks. Phode News Hub delved deeper and unearthed imponderable dirty corrupt schemes and conspiracy to privatize State parastatals through illegitimate means.  Lawyer Ndegwa Njiru alleged that the Public Seal is in the custody of the Head of Public Service, Felix Kipatarus Koskei. All commercial engagements and accords will allegedly be sealed by Koskei on behalf of Kenya government. Kenya is glaring at the risks of  being auctioned by a person who lacks the legal knowledge to discern what should be sealed and what should not. According to the Attorney General Act 2012, Section 28 specifically provides that, “The Attorney-General shall have custody of the public seal of the Republic of Kenya." Standard Media exclusively reported that President William Ruto sec...
