Five Observations

 1.  Someone brought up the ordering of a pizza (XL)....paying $32 for a 3-topping situation.  That's crazy on pricing but another demonstration of the economy.

2.  Someone suggested on social media....renaming the state of Alabama into 'Lebanon' and Tennessee into 'North Lebanon'....to ensure we get a bigger chunk of federal funds.  I hate to say it....but one-third of the population of both states would be agreeable to this idea.

3.  I read a piece where someone offered up the idea....paying people to vote (not saying huge amount.....mostly like $100).  But in their vision, you'd have to show a social security card and ID....to have the money sent to your home address a month after the election.  It'd be a incentive for everyone to have a ID for voting, and make them happy about voting.  If the check could not be delivered?  Have it returned to the gov't.

4. Just a feeling....after Hurricane Milton passes through Florida.....I will bet that within four months....a majority of insurance companies will refuse to offer any deal within the state.

5.  Trump is showing up in central California on Saturday afternoon.  I'm already betting on a crowd of 100,000 showing up....with a quarter of them Hispanic.

Should Joe/Jill Biden Just Kept Running?

 Over the past week, I've contemplated the election scenario....what if  Joe/Jill had just kept running and not exited out.

I've come to the opinion that Joe/Jill would be at least a point or two ahead of Donald Trump, and this would be hard race for Donald trump to win.

Kamala Harris unprepared?  That's the key problem....without the primary 'practice'....she's expected to 'dance' and she can't really do more than show-up....pretend to be prepared, and give you a half-way prepared 'act'.

I suspect people will talk about this for decades....how Joe/Jill could have won.

Harris: Kinda Funny

 Yesterday, VP Kamala Harris attempted a person-to-person 'talk' with Gov DeSantis of Florida to show concern over the approaching hurricane.  

DeSantis turned down the call (refused to take it).

This got Harris bothered and she described DeSantis as 'selfish' and 'utterly irresponsible.'

To be honest here....the VP has NO power....so the call was worthless. If it'd been Joe Biden....it would be different, and I imagine DeSantis would have accepted it.

The problem now for Harris?  Well...once the hurricane passes and the call for help from FEMA fails (which I anticipate).....Harris will get the blame.  

Joe Biden seeing all this unfold?  Oh yeah, he's grinning.....knowing precisely the position that he's put Harris into and that FEMA presently is all crippled-up and worthless.

As one stands back to view the landscape....it's just developed into a comedy show. 

Odd of a third hurricane situation?  You know....with four weeks until election....I'd suggest it's 50-50 on odds....yet another hurricane will occur, and it's  simply going to blacken the situation over FEMA even more. 

FEMA Likely To Dissolve?

 I would speculate at this point....FEMA has made the case where in 2025....they probably will cease to exist.  What replaces them?

I would suggest something that says natural-disasters ONLY.....headquartered in the center of the US, and  likely to have some type of reserve-feature (like the National Guard), which can be activated.  

Leadership of FEMA to be discharged/let-go?  Yeah....I  would imagine the bulk of their current leadership are toxic in nature and unable to function.

Kinda funny.....how they became their own worst enemy.

Ten Things I Now Believe

 1.  All this of FEMA confiscating emergency supplies being brought in....are due to fake FEMA-badged individuals (I believe this now) in North Carolina.  There just aren't that many FEMA people there, and if they were....they wouldn't be this stupid.  

2.  Nike and their contract with Caitlan Clark of the WNBA?  She's going to drop them by Christmas, and sign with Adidas or Puma.  

3.  Over the final 30 days of the Harris campaign....you will end up seeing Barak Obama at least twice a day....in key states.  

4.  If you asked President Biden if he knew that FEMA spent three-quarters of a billion of FEMA funds on migrants and hotels....he'd probably respond 'who-the-f*ck-authorized-that'.

5.  CNN has laid off enough pro-Kamala folks....that the majority left now believe Trump wins...easily.

6.  If you asked 100 high-school seniors where the 'Great Wall of China' is located.....fewer than 20-percent would identify China as the correct answer.

7.  No North Carolina official (Governor on down) will ever detail how many were lost or died in the chaos.  No sheriff will officially detail how many body bags his deputies prepared or delivered.

8.  More than 25,000 Ohio residents will be practicing Voo Doo members by 2030.  I'm not talking about Haitian-Ohioans.....I mean regular Ohioans.

9.  CNN will kinda drop the 'low-IQ' Republican special guests, and admit that audiences seem to be amused (laughing) over the analysis given by the low-IQ Republicans.

10.  US military services will start admitting in 2025....at least a quarter of their members are in serious debt problems and requiring 'help' of some type. 

Four Observations About This North Carolina-FEMA-Joe Biden-Kamala Harris 'Affair'

First, there's a 'golden-rule' in Presidential election years....the party in power....in the final 100 days before the vote....does everything possible not to screw up.  

As you look at FEMA and President Biden.....they've screwed-up royally.  

In this whole Appalachian region (five states)...for at least an entire generation, this will be remembered.

Second, if any of this is true...that FEMA spent their money on Homeland Security priorities of migrants....you'd have to remove FEMA from Homeland Security control.  

Third, this Trump 'town-hall' meeting today (Friday) in North Carolina?  I would imagine all of the networks will avoid carrying it or talking about it.  Twitter?  It'll be the most heavily viewed topic of the year.  Utter disaster for Kamala Harris.

Fourth, the science guys are still talking about this storm and how oddly it picked up steam,  and still  went on strong through the heartland.  Unnatural is a comment they've made. 

Just odd...I guess

Five Things Likely To Occur By 2030 (Six Years Into The Future)

 1.  The WNBA will not exist.

My speculation?  A European women's league will exist (with Caitlan Clark)....sign up Puma, and get a US media company to provide game coverage into the US.  At the end of two years.....the WNBA  will hint of a merge action....bringing the Euro league into the WNBA.  The Euro league will refuse.

In the end, the WNBA will find a financial collapse that the NBA is unwilling to cover the cost.  

2.  California will reach a financial loss situation where they literally beg the federal government to cover their mountain of debt....only to be 'no'.

Some bank will come to sign up for the California debt situation....with the deal hinging on all state property reverting to bank property, and the state is effectively run by a bank CEO.....not an elected governor.

3.  FEMA being connected to Homeland Security.....will cease by 2030.

I think as you enter 2025, an investigation will detail how Homeland Security continued to 'raid' FEMA for emergency stashes of cash.....year after year.

FEMA will end being disconnected from them and given a cabinet secretary and set to the side....not to be part of Homeland Security.  

4.  Star Wars theme movies will stop by 2030, and go through a five to ten 'silence'....mostly admitting that the storyline is now crap and unsellable to the general public.

5.   Some new car brand will come to exist.....with bare minimum features, and a 50 horse-power engine.  At $20,000....this will be the only affordable car in America for more than 20-percent of society.  Other than heat/cooling an electric windows....the car will feature no radio, no GPS.
