Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

I've been saying this for years! (go me! back slaps all round)

The internet is littered with bots. Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, Insta, are majority Bots. % varies on how much tinfoil you wear, but i reckon 75% of these platforms are bots.

The whole internet investing based on user numbers is a massive bubble waiting to burst. Investors believe there are 1 billion twitter users (for example) when the real figure is much, much less. But based on 1 billion users, ads should make X amount of return/revenue, so investors chuck more money in to the platform. The platform then buys more bots so show an increase in users and so on and so forth.

Does nobody find it strange that in the history of the WWW, we have seen massive companies come and go in time-spans less than the life of Facebook and Twitter, yet they're still around, without a competitor? (They're propped up by government/NSA and cannot be allowed to fail at this point)

Friendsreunited, Myspace, Tagged, Where are you now? Digg, to name but a few.

I don't think Twitter has had an actual profitable year to date.

Lmao, Kamala couldn't suppress those ancestral slavedriver instincts. Is this why the left goes so hard on original white sin?

It probably isn’t feasible because he’s too good of an operator. McConnell is stupid valuable to Kentucky and the party in general, but the fact that Trump can make threats at all (‘cause the base will jump for him if asked) gives him leverage to get concessions.

McConnell's only good at political sausage-making, and robbing his constituents.

The man is more unpopular than Pelosi. And on some days, he's more unpopular than Schumer and Pelosi combined. He's an asset to Kentucky, but even a chunk his own party can't stand him.

Unironically, it's time to ditch Cocaine Mitch.

Democrats aim to suspend debt limit with bill to avoid government shutdown

House Democrats will combine a short-term government spending bill with a suspension of the debt limit, a package slated to hit the floor this week, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced Monday.

House Democrats will combine a short-term government spending bill with a suspension of the debt limit in a package slated to hit the floor this week, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced Monday.

The move comes after weeks of debate over the best way to hike the government's borrowing limit, and prevent a default on government debt, in the face of opposition from Senate Republicans, who are threatening to oppose the measure to protest President Biden's spending plans.

By lumping the debt-limit increase with the continuing resolution, or CR, Pelosi is daring Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to sink the package and risk a government shutdown on Oct. 1.

This week: Democrats face mounting headaches
The Hill's 12:30 Report - Presented by Facebook - Pfizer deems COVID...
In a joint statement with Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-Calif.), Pelosi said they will suspend the debt limit until the end of 2022. That timeline, she said, reflects the $908 billion COVID relief package approved by both parties last December, when former President Trump was still in office.

“The American people expect our Republican colleagues to live up to their responsibilities and make good on the debts they proudly helped incur in the December 2020 ‘908’ COVID package that helped American families and small businesses reeling from the COVID crisis," Pelosi and Schumer said.

One thing you have to remember is that money is not the goal, the goal is control. All that data they collect helps them shape and target propaganda and narrative more effectively. Advertising is barely an afterthought when you have the mechanisms to deliver votes and reshape narratives.

The dem's need that $908 billion in the COVID relief package to pay their debts.

They're getting fucking desperate.

I don't think they realize that nobody cares in the US government gets shut down.

If they close the parks, like under Obama, nobody will care, since we can't go out anyway.

If some Feds don't get paid, nobody cares.

To be honest, nobody would care if the government got shut down completely for a few weeks.

IT ISN'T LIKE THEY'VE BEEN DOING ANYTHING BUT TAKING VACATIONS SINCE BIDEN TOOK OFFICE!

So who gives a shit. Shut that shit down.

I'm an investor. I can't buy hookers and blow using your control.

But no worries, i believe you will pay me big returns soon. Just like when i bought all of that bad debt in 2007, after being promised I would make millions...

It's a bubble, and it will be burst. At the moment the bubble has been housed inside a plastic prison, to stop it from bursting, but it will burst, and it will fling even more shrapnel around than it would have if it was allowed to naturally pop, a few years back.
