Observations

 1. What happens after Nancy Pelosi leaves the House Speaker job?  

I'm one of those people who believe that Pelosi will not run in the mid-term of 2022, and probably will leave the House Speaker job in the spring of 2022 (at a time of her choosing).  I also think a far left radical group of people will apply for the House Speaker job, and at least thirty of the Democrats in the House will agree on the replacement submitted by the Party itself.  

I suspect at least three factional groups will try to forward their 'person', and whoever replaces Pelosi....is only going to hold the job until January 2023.

2.  This attempt to get the Justice Department to send the FBI after parents hassling school boards?

This can only end with one remarkable 'change'.....that more kids are removed from public schools and private schools/home-schooling jumps by more than 100k kids in a very short period of time (probably sixty days).

The real loser?  In some districts, I might go and suggest enough kids are removed from the schools.....to trim back hired teachers.  The situation will flip-out a number of teachers (going out) because they owe $80k in student debt.  Getting hired for the private school system?  Some might retain a job.

Forcing the end of school boards?  I would suggest that board members will be identified as 'problems' and a fair number will see themselves voted out in the next election.  But this will inflame the whole mess, and some states will discuss the idea of terminating boards entirely....making a committee from the state level responsible, and providing them round-the-clock security.
