🚨🚨🚨Kamala Harris next US president? Did 'The Simpsons' predict the future
As expected, social media exploded with reactions and memes after President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race, endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee. Biden, 81, made the decision less than four months before the election, citing concerns about his age and ability to serve another term.
Many users pointed out a bizarre yet familiar connection to 'The Simpsons.' The iconic animated series, notorious for its uncanny predictions, is again in the spotlight. This time, the internet is buzzing over its apparent foresight into the current political landscape.
In the episode "Bart to the Future," which aired in March 2000, Lisa Simpson becomes the President of the United States, while her brother Bart is depicted as a White House freeloader. This episode resurfaced in discussions when Kamala Harris took her oath as the first female Vice President of the United States. Observers couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance between Harris’s attire and Lisa Simpson’s iconic purple blazer and pearl necklace.
Yeardley Smith, the voice of Lisa Simpson, even chimed in on Twitter, saying, “I really wanna believe Kamala Harris chose her wardrobe yesterday as a subtle nod to Lisa Simpson.”

🚨 🚨🚨BREAKING: Biden drops out of the 2024 presidential race, endorses Kamala Harris🇺🇸
President Biden announced Sunday that he was pulling out of the 2024 campaign following a weeks-long pressure campaign from fellow Democrats that began in earnest following his much-criticized debate performance in late June.
“I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down," Biden said in a statement posted to X. He added that he plans to address the nation later this week, but made clear that he intends to finish out the last three months of his term in office.
In a separate post following the announcement, Biden wrote that he is endorsing his vice president, Kamala Harris, to be the Democratic nominee for president.🔥🔥🔥
In 2024, several countries stand out for their large Bitcoin reserves, mainly acquired through judicial seizures or strategic purchases. Here's a look at the five nations at the top of this list.
1. United States 🇺🇸 The US government is the largest holder of Bitcoin, with around $215,000 BTC. These reserves largely come from legal seizures linked to criminal activities since 2020. The total value of these Bitcoins is estimated at approximately $8.3 billion USD.
2. China 🇨🇳 China follows closely with around $190,000 BTC, mainly obtained through the seizure of funds from the PlusToken Ponzi scheme. The value of these Bitcoins is around $12.6 billion, making China a major player in the world of cryptocurrencies.
3. United Kingdom 🇬🇧 The UK owns around $61,000 BTC, valued at around $4 billion. These Bitcoins were confiscated during various criminal investigations, thereby strengthening the country's reserves of digital assets.
4. Germany 🇩🇪 With $50,000 BTC, Germany ranks fourth. These Bitcoins, worth $2.17 billion, were acquired primarily through a large judicial seizure in 2018, marking one of the largest operations of its type in Europe.
5. Ukraine 🇺🇦 The Ukrainian government holds $46,351 BTC, seized during anti-corruption operations. These Bitcoins have an approximate value of $1.5 billion and are used to finance various government projects and strengthen the country's digital asset reserves.
The BRICS currency is coming: Why the USD should worry?
The BRICS countries are actively working on creating a single currency, a project recently confirmed by Kazem Jalali, Iran’s ambassador to Russia. This initiative aims to reduce global dependence on the USD and promises to disrupt the global economy if it comes to fruition. This currency could reshuffle the cards of global economic power and deeply impact the dollar. Here are three concrete ways the BRICS currency will affect the USD.
Three Alarming Effects of the BRICS Currency on the USD The creation of a BRICS currency will have several significant impacts on the USD. By adopting a common currency, BRICS bloc members can conduct trade transactions without using the US dollar. This would decrease the supply and demand for dollars on the international stage, potentially weakening its value
The BRICS currency could also erode the position of the USD as the world’s primary reserve currency.
Many countries hold USD reserves to stabilize their economies, but adopting an alternative currency could encourage diversification of these reserves. Such diversification would weaken the USD dominance, thereby reducing its influence on global financial markets.
Finally, the creation of a common currency would allow BRICS countries to strengthen their local currencies. By facilitating internal trade without relying on the dollar, these economies could stabilize and enhance their own currencies. This could challenge the USD in forex markets, offering new competition and diversifying options for international transactions Towards a New World Economic Order?
The BRICS countries are seeking to free themselves from the grip of the dollar by adopting a common currency. This initiative aims to reduce their dependence on the USD, which has long dominated international transactions but is increasingly avoided by these emerging economies. By promoting internal trade and considering a common currency, the BRICS are striving to strengthen their economic sovereignty $BTC $BNB #BRICSCryptoRevolution
BRICS Nations Agree to Launch Currency 🪙to Counter US 💵
A new BRICS currency looks inevitable as the bloc is looking to formulate new alternatives to ditch the US Dollar. The BRICS alliance is looking to replace USD with a new currency creating a new world order. The bloc is advancing towards producing a ‘multipolar world’ where the US and its Western allies will no longer have power and control over other nations.
The group is convincing developing nations in Asia, Africa, and South America to ditch the US dollar. They are also bringing more interest to the idea of joining the bloc and adopting a new currency, which is expected to be backed by gold. Currently consisting of nine members, more countries are expected to be invited to BRICS in the coming months and at the upcoming October summit in Russia.
Un porte-parole officiel de la campagne de Trump a déclaré à l'Associated Press que l'ancien président allait « bien » après l'incident et qu'il recevait des soins médicaux dans un établissement local. "Le président Trump remercie les forces de l'ordre et les premiers intervenants pour leur réponse rapide lors de cet acte odieux", a déclaré le porte-parole Steven Cheung dans un communiqué. "Il est dans un état stable et est actuellement examiné dans un établissement médical local. Plus de détails à venir." Trump, qui s’est récemment distingué par son attitude positive à l’égard du Bitcoin, a reçu un grand soutien de la part des investisseurs en crypto. De nombreux messages soutenant Trump ont été partagés sur les plateformes de réseaux sociaux. #BTC☀
