I wanted to post a funny list of predictions for the coming year, but I’m in such a dark mindset right now that I just can’t find anything to laugh at in an election year that will surely dig the existing chasm much deeper and wider, so let’s look at what we’re facing.

There are laws of the universe that are unchangeable, and so it is with good and evil. This year the ability to determine what side you’re on will become obvious to each side. Evil will hate you to the point of violence if you aren’t on their path. Heads up though…. There is plenty of evil in politics on both sides of the aisle.

The millions of invaders pouring into our country through our southern border will not stop, and I don’t know why. Neither party wants it to stop, so it’s not going to stop anytime soon.

Whatever is actually running our country, and it’s definitely not the three branches, will never allow Donald Trump back into the White House. Not ever, and you can make of that whatever you want. Who will be our next president? Whoever the fourth branch chooses.

Social unrest will explode across our country, and those who lead will fuel the usual groups of useful idiots. Look for a new group this year that looks and thinks an awful lot like me. Stay out of that group because unlike the useful idiots, you are a danger to the fourth branch. They hate you and have been trying to draw you out for eight years. At this point there is nothing worth saving.

We are stretched so thin from sticking our nose in every single corner of every continent, and our military has become woke. China is a monster that will not be contained, and eventually will take Taiwan, along with anything else it wants. Will it be this year? It will be when they decide, and we won’t stop them.

I have no idea what my government will do about our economy of higher taxes, higher prices, crippling interest and inflation but I do know this…. We are going to continue to spend like drunken sailors and their pockets are deep with our money.

I am tempted to say that we will be at war, but the truth is that we are at war now. Expect it to escalate.

So that’s where I am. It’s alright to disagree, and honestly I encourage disagreement. Maybe interest will fall under two percent, prices will fall, and our retirement savings will outpace inflation. Maybe someone will emerge that will end war and promote unity, love, and harmony. And maybe Jesus will return for his own.

Maybe.
