What's going on? Pt. 2
Although Biden dropped out after my May 1st summary of What's Going On?, the decisions made by the DNC after this change ultimately validated my initial suspicion that the party intended to lose. And lose they did!
Now we are faced with the outcome I expected, and below are my predictions for a few of the bigger events which will be coming next, most likely to occur within 12 months of my writing this:

1. The next major recession
We had a little taste of recession in 2020, partially averted by drastic measures undertaken amid the pandemic. Now, nearly 18 years on from the start of the Great Recession, the land bubble is due to burst again, and it will be catastrophic. Despite the severity of that previous recession, the safeguards which had been put in place after the Great Depression, which were removed prior to 2007, were never restored. When the next recession hits, there will be mass evictions & chaos, and violence will likely ensue alongside brutal crackdowns. Look for it in 2025!

2. War with Iran
This was in the works regardless of whether Harris or Trump won the presidential election. Trump (with Vance) was chosen by our moneyed elites as a "strong" figurehead to lead and crush opposition to this coming war, which will be a total, suicidal disaster, and likely lead to a larger war with Russia.

3. War with Mexico
This one is a 'long shot' guess. However, partisan American rhetoric about an "invasion" at our southern border has, in fact, been deliberate sabre-rattling to drum up support for war. Even some of the ostensibly reasonable voices in the "MAGA" camp like MacGregor have expressed an idiotic desire to open fire on those who may try to cross this border from the south, and to treat migrants from Mexico as though they were, indeed, an enemy army, which has been a longtime fantasy of American white supremacists.

Mexico, now, may well be preparing to combat an actual military invasion, and others within Trump's fold in the US have suggested using the presence of the drug cartels as a pretext for such an invasion. Likewise, many deceptive voices in US "intelligence" have put out dubious claims, directed at the American general public, that the southern border is being used as a base for Russian or Chinese intelligence - or both! Trump, for his part, has alleged, with no evidence, that Hamas members are sneaking in through Mexico, and those who have paid attention to what's been going on in Palestine will recognize this bogus claim as a tried-and-true pretext which has been put to extensive use for justifying the most horrible series of atrocities to occur in this century so far.

While war with Mexico seems like the least likely of these three predictions, there are nevertheless real signs that it is on the way, which I cannot honestly discount.
