The Simpsons Creator's Hilarious Three-Word Solution To 'Free' MAGA Parents
In the year 2000, they predicted Trump would be president.
In 1995, they predicted smart watches would be a thing.
And they even predicted Greece's 2015 economic downturn in 2013.
Matt Groening is the creator of The Simpsons, and he offered up some future predictions at a panel at San Diego Comic-Con.
Variety reported his first prediction was that Elon Musk would be the first man to land on Mars.
"The Simpsons predicts Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly, he will crash-land on Mars. But he will radio back that he is marooned there forever. And most emotionally of all, he will be able to hear the cheering all the way."
His second prediction was that the Statue of Liberty would be given back to France.
"America will return the Statue of Liberty to France and North America remembers what the word Liberty means."
And the third prediction was about how kids would liberate their parents from MAGA.
"The Simpsons predicts kids across America will liberate their Republican parents from the cult of MAGA. And here's how you do it. Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News."
Yes, it's simple: "Delete Fox News."
Now, let's see if these predictions come true.

Celeb Voter Rregistrations: Republicans And Democrats
Florida! Home of many notable things, including publicly accessible voter registration records. Florida is also a closed primary state, meaning that you essentially can only vote in the primaries for the party you're registered with. As such, you might be curious as to how certain famous figures who reside there are currently registered. It's worth noting that the date of registration could reflect a change in address rather than a change in political party. Here's what the records say under "party": Sydney Sweeney: Republican The actor has been registered with the Republicans since June 2024, when it was reported that she'd bought an oceanfront mansion close to Key West. Guy Fieri: Republican Guy has been registered with the Republican Party of Florida since October 2023. After the election, he said, "Now that our country's made a gigantic pivotal change, we're going to get back to doing what we do, and that is being the best country in the world." Karlie Kloss: Democrat Despite being married to Joshua Kushner, Karlie has long been open about voting blue. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Democrat Dwayne refused to endorse a candidate in the 2024 election and has voted Republican and Democrat before. As for now, he's been a registered Democrat since 2018. Jeff Bezos: No Party Affiliation Despite shutting down the Washington Post's endorsement of Kamala Harris and attending Trump's inauguration, Bezos isn't actually officially registered to either party, Sylvester Stallone: No Party Affiliation Sylvester was named as one of Trump's "special ambassadors" to Hollywood earlier this year, but he isn't actually registered with the Republican party. Witney Carson: Republican The dancer and choreographer's registration dates back to October 2023. Ramona Singer: Republican The Real Housewives of New York City alum has previously been spotted at Mar-A-Largo over the years. She's rumored to be considering her own political run. Derek Jeter: Democrat The baseball legend has been registered Democrat since 2008. John Travolta: No Party Affiliation His registration has been consistent since 2003. Finally, Tom Brady: No Party Affiliation He did sit in Trump's suite at the FIFA Club World Cup last month. Any surprises?

Dean Cain, Superman actor from 'Lois and Clark' TV show, joins ICE
Dean Cain, the actor best known for playing the Man of Steel on the 1990s television series 'Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman,' said this week he planned to become an officer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The actor's move comes as the Trump administration carries out an aggressive mass deportation program across the nation. Cain, 59, announced the news Wednesday in a video on his Instagram account. 'I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it, so I joined up,' Cain said, speaking directly to the camera as John Williams' theme from the 1978 'Superman' film plays. He went on to implore other people in the U.S. to join ICE as officers, touting the job's salary and benefits. In an appearance on Fox News' 'Jesse Waters Primetime' later on Wednesday, Cain said: 'I will be sworn in as an ICE agent ASAP.' Cain is one of President Donald Trump's most vocal supporters in Hollywood. He publicly endorsed Trump in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 presidential elections. In an interview with Variety last month, Cain said: 'I love President Trump. I've been friends with him forever… Trump is actually one of the most empathetic, wonderful, generous people you'll ever meet.' ICE has recently ramped up recruitment efforts as it seeks to carry out Trump's calls for mass deportations. The agency has promoted incentives for recruits, including potential $50,000 signing bonuses and the possibility of up to $60,000 in student loan repayments. The Department of Homeland Security has also removed age limits for new hires. Trump's administration is attempting to enact a sweeping immigration enforcement agenda. ICE, responding to pressure from the White House to dramatically increase arrests, detained more than 2,200 people in a single day in June — the most immigrant arrests in the agency's history. ICE agents have drawn intense scrutiny for arresting people who have no known criminal histories and using controversial tactics, including wearing face coverings and detaining people at immigration court hearings. ICE's resources have grown substantially following the passage of 'the Big Beautiful Bill,' Trump's signature domestic legislation, which provided $14.4 billion in funding for immigrant removals and 10,000 new ICE agents. 'This will help ICE achieve as many as 1 million deportations per year,' Homeland Security said in a news release. Cain has more than 200 acting credits on the Internet Movie Database. He has appeared in various faith-based films, including the 2014 Christian drama 'God's Not Dead.'
