CNN just said that he's announcing during a fundraiser he's having with his VP pick & that it's gonna be today. Who's having a Biden fundraiser today other than Warren? There wouldn't be 2 different Biden fundraisers on the same day, would there?

No, but I also don't think they would openly say that, knowing that Warren is the only one with a fundraiser. That would completely give it away. I also feel like he won't be announcing it during a *fundraiser* though. Then what would the ballroom be for?

Right. If anything, the ballroom makes me think it isn't her.

Unless the ballroom is a fundraiser?

Unrelated but there are rumors that Andrew Yang is now going to be part of the convention:


I hope Lieu realizes that two of Biden's VP finalists are Asian-American...
To be fair, Asians (and Hispanics) tend to be ignored by Democrats.
Lieu is off here, but the sentiment is correct.

Anyone besides Harris would be a shock to me. Warren—jaw hits floor.

"In moments," CNN just said. I can't. I'm dead.


What time was the fundraiser supposed to be?

7pm EST. More than enough time for the ballroom announcement to happen between now & then, with the fundraiser being her first official event as the running-mate.

Last thoughts before I head out:

I still think it's probably Harris unfortunately but I'll take almost anyone else at this point.

Warren makes sense with this in mind. I am sorry for posting the trolling post. Please forgive me.

Does anyone know if the 30330 number will work if I text it from the UK? Possibly a stupid question but I don't know much about this stuff.

I'm not a fan of Harris, but would take her over Rice (and practically besides her) in a heart beat. Would be happiest with Warren.

I mean, an announcement today makes the most sense if he wants to avoid a leak.
