My Humble Thoughts

 1.  Odds of MSNBC being sold over next six months?

You basically need someone with a pocket of money....willing to pump $20-million a month to pump in and keep them at the 'floating-point' they exist today....with two or three of the top-dogs let-go.

I could see a drug-cartel doing this.  Maybe the Soros-team could cover the situation.

No, I don't believe Elon Musk would do....unless he radically changed them into  what CNN was in the 1990s....a pure news coverage network.  In this scenario....75-percent of the manpower would be let-go, and a massive re-branding would be required.

2.  Clinics that do trans-surgery existing at the end of 2025?

No.  Every single one of them in the US will be shut-down.  New operations opening in Costa Rica or some Caribbean island?  Probably so.

3.  Mentally ill homelessness....dissolving in 2025?

I'd say some indicators exist....suggesting various cities (NY City is one) where the judges will be given some nutcase and deem them a threat to society....sending them off to some state facility.  

I'll predict by the end of the year....more than a dozen states are doing this.

4.  I'll predict for 2025....more than 20 House members are identified as having paid out 'hush-money'.  I suspect the President will personally identify each one and ask why gov't funds were used, and not personal funds.

5.  Finally, by the end of the 2025 'season'....I think the WNBA management folks will come to admit that financially....they can't make it.

The School Story

 I looked over social media today, and this NJ school story came up.  Basic story? Some 11th-grade students were given an English writing assignment....where they had to create out of thin air....a "informative poster".  Key issue?  It had to be based on a current politics in America.  The teacher then gave out a list of suggested topics.....that mostly were something that left-leaning person would want information about.  

I should note.....they were ONLY suggested talking points.  The kid could select anything else.

I paused over this.  

In the atmosphere of mid-1970s....when I went to a rural Alabama school....the teacher could reasonably expect half the kids in the class weren't capable of writing some long 1-page dramatic piece.  They could write some soup-recipe.....a detailed description of how drain oil out of a tractor....some information sheet on hunting deer....or how to cut firewood.

My belief in the end-product for this class?  I guess half the kids went to the internet.....copied some instruction....word-for-word, and got a 'B' off the project.

Do people need information on politics?  That's the other comical side of this story.  We probably get two hours a month now....of political BS....that has no value.
