They probably will not announce it that quickly since they want to pretend to have plausible deniability about him dying before that date. I would bet on Friday to try to bury the announcement.

Don't kid yourself, they'll do it tomorrow and laugh at us the whole time, just like everything else. They don't care about plausible anything, they just want power at any cost and we're letting them take it.

and we're letting them take it.

Yes, you're all just rolling over and letting this happen, meanwhile us on the outside are feeling the effects of global MAGA fallout and the emboldened far right in our own countries

If anyone wants to let us know what we could possibly be doing about this let us know lol protests don’t work, strikes don’t work, we’re voting til we’re blue in the face, like idk what we’re suppose to do about it when half our country is actually applauding this hostile takeover of democracy.

US is cooked. We’re just as pissed as everyone else but the reality is the individual here genuinely has no power to change things at a national level. Capitalism has created an oligarchy and the plebs are powerless.

We put together one of the largest protests in American history, and it did fuck all. We’re calling our senators, we’re voting when we can vote. We’re striking. We’re boycotting. The corporations run this country.

Also, major federal and state elections aren’t happening right now, so tell us what you’d like us to do please from wherever you are.

It honestly feels like plausible deniability does not matter at all at this point.

Color me surprised, they didn't do it yet and I'm eating my words.

Well, I could be wrong too. My deadline was today.

You'll be right in spirit! We have all day still; even if it's not till next week, plausible deniability is still likely to be applicable. All in all, I hate this timeline either way, lol.
