2025 will start with MAGA going through a hostile takeover bid by Musk. Trump's response to this attack on his power could be to nationalize SpaceX, Twitter (X), and other Musk assets. Trump could also have the DOJ start an open-ended Musk investigation.

The legality of the US regaining control of the Panama Canal is highly questionable. The Torrijos-Carter Treaties explicitly state that Panama would assume full control of the Canal on December 31, 1999.

Any attempt by the US to unilaterally take back the Canal would be a clear violation of international law and would likely face widespread condemnation from the world community. Such a move could also have significant economic consequences for the US, potentially disrupting trade, US interests.

For the US to attempt to reclaim the Canal would not only undermine Panama's autonomy but also raise questions about US respect for international law and the sovereignty of other nations. Such a move would likely damage US relations with Latin America and the broader international community.

The future of the Panama Canal and US-Panama relations hinges on the choices made by both nations in the coming months and years. A commitment to diplomacy, respect for international law, and a recognition of the shared history and interconnectedness of the two countries will be essential.
