Without credible video confirmation, it’s reasonable to question whether Biden indeed currently consents to his campaign termination or not.
And at this point, even when he does appear on video or in person (not just voice) and confirms it , there’s basically no way to ever confirm whether Biden consented to that tweet before it was made, or whether it was made and then he had to adjust in response to it. He doesn’t control his account and lacks any sort of encryption to prove a given message was authorized by him at the time of sending.

Interesting… Wild times indeed.
Ask not where Joe is now, but rather whether Joe was ever here in the past year or more.
I wouldn't be very surprised if he doesn't knows that he's not candidate anymore.
credible video confirmation doesn't exist man
the video evidence should not be allowed in court
Time for Biden to embody the "Dark Brandon" meme and have his revenge arc on the deep state by vowing to stay in the race.
No way to know, but he could debunk it by going rogue in the first live video feed, assuming they let him do it without a delay.

The Democrat leaders are dictating what should happen, and telling their supporters to STFU, bend over, and take it.
Video is meaningless in the age of AI, is it not? Cryptographically signed statements can be coerced, can they not? Beig an eyewitness is the closest you can get and even that can fool you, can it not?

imo: Biden wanted to quit for a long time. Having to perform a job that you are not good enough in and constantly failing publicly in the center of attention would be stressful even for a young person full of energy. He played along for the sake of his team.
Absolutely true.
Other than from a technical standpoint, these events show clearly that POTUS is just a honorific role.
Decisions are made elsewhere.
Lyn, very well stated. I don't know if Biden's at all aware of anything at this point and I wonder if Harris will go for the 25th Amendment to get the role as acting President of the USA to strengthen her position against President Donald J Trump if she is going to in fact be the official nominee coming out of the DNC next month at the United Center in Chicago.

GM🫡 Good point.
“Wild times”
Making a lot out of very little.
World wars, wild times.
Human Flight, wild times.
Dinosaur extinction, wild times.
Human tech advancements, wild times.
Etc…
81 year old man gets rocked by a coronavirus and delegates, wild times?
Question anything, not everything.
Coup in plain sight.

At a time of record political polarization, one president candidate survives an assassination attempt while the other experiences cognitive decline in the run up to an election, and drops out via a text-based communication channel he doesn’t control.
That’s objectively wild times- one of the most eventful and consequential months in the past century of US politics.
He’s mentally incompetent, he can’t provide consent anyway.
Oh. Your account's been reinstated by Lord Free Speech?

It is also likely that other countries, using their intelligence collection capabilities, had greater insights into the chaos in the White House than the American people. Understanding the decision tree is critical to understanding an adversary’s plans and intentions, which is really the point of intelligence collection. Get that wrong, and a series of unfortunate events can unfold.
But at least now we know - the Harris people are in charge, and the vast mechanism of influence the democrats rely on will kick into high gear to make sure that whatever happens from today forward will be in support of her candidacy.
And we’ll be not-so-politely asked to forget the last three years of obfuscation and lies.
I mean technically the holder of the nsec for npub: @Erik
Signed it 🤣🤪
Plausible deniability
I would say it’s been pretty wild. I think it was to be expected though. 2020 was just as crazy. I wonder once Trump/Biden off the political scene will things calm down as Trump is a very unique politician that brings a different energy… thoughts?
🔫🤖 shhh….
🤣🤣🤣
Man. Damus auto fixed the npub to your user name hahaha
npub1aesr9ql7h3xrrvyeqvujgz9zllca4a56cgjy5hj26plv5w78nhkq2m0d2
Now thats what i call a great user experience 💜💜💜 @Damus
Agree to it being unprecedented, sure. I wouldn’t say wild.
The US and the internet with it are both in their infancy and I expect the future will hold significantly more interesting times.
Good morning.
💯 plus the timing of "i'm not dropping out" ... to "well only for a health thing" ... then within hours "i have a health thing" plus staff found out via twitter plus the signature on the letter really is pretty sus
Yep. "Signature or it didn't happen" is my protocol
And even the survivor seems to experience cognitive decline. On the other hand, he is almost 80 years old…
Excellent observation and now he has COVID-19. Classic.
That'd be funny shit right there.
Artists are under-appreciated
It should be noted that Elon Musk could absolutely post from Joe Biden's (or anyone else's) account. And he support Trump.
I'm not saying he ever would do such a thing. He probably would never.
I'm just saying he technically could.
append pgp is inefficient, but it works and is not rocket science. The tech to solve the problem is here from like 25 years.
It seems kind of moot since it’s not really up to him. If it were, he would still be running.
He should know. It's where his money came from.
HOw would you know what Joe Biden (or any prominent persons) digitial signature was or whether they had an assistant using their key?
I don't know tbh. Does verification need to have multiple layers on top of each other? I may research this
it's easier to do voice deep fakes
At some level a social consensus builds up for accepting a private key signing as that individual. How do you know the Nostr account for @ODELL is really him for example?

GM! ☕ ☀️ 🫂 owning your account will be very important going forward.
Lyn has a lot of good takes. Sorry, this one is cuckoo.
He absolutely does have access to your account, yes.
Tweets are stored in their database. They do have the technical capacity of modifying them.
Again, I don't think they would. There might be (in fact, I think there would be) legal repercussions if they did.
But, from a purely *technical* point of view, they absolutely can.
This isn't a matter of opinion. It is how it is. It absolutely is exactly how it works.
There is basically no way to ever confirm whether you consented to this note.
Blink if you don't have fingers.
Love that quote from Frank. So true👌🏻.
This.
It's definitely weird to realize that the sitting president just dropped out of the upcoming election in a way that precludes verification.
What is this about if someone knows?

Wild times indeed.
The masses will wake for the need of #nostr.
That would actually be based of him.
A coup?
Silent coup
