Volv Concierge #51
đ 9/11 used to be off-limits. Now it is a #1 meme.
Hey fam!
Priyanka here, Iâve been bustling in NYC this week, filled with exciting events and meetings with media execs. Two standout moments so far:
Shannon and I spoke at the Fintech is Femme Creator Summit on Monday. We connected with so many incredible creators who are thrilled about publishing on Volv (and our cool merch too!) If you're interested in publishing on Volv, join this waitlist!
Iâve been meeting with legacy media executives to bridge the gap between traditional media and our generation. I had an inspiring meeting with the MD of Mirror and even got a tour of the AP newsroom, which was amazing, especially on the day of the debate!
Iâll be here for a few more days before heading back to London, so if thereâs someone I should meet, please lmk!
Since everyone is still digesting and talking about last nightâŠ
đïž Here's everything you need to know about Trump and Harrisâ first (and likely their last) face-off
"Israel won't exist:â Trump claims Harrisâ presidency would lead to Israelâs downfall within two years, adding that she dislikes Israel and Arabs.
Trump falsely claims Haitian immigrants are eating their pet cats and dogs. While weâre on the subject of conspiracy theories, Harrisâ earrings also got some attention for being earpieces.
He claimed he wonât sign a national abortion ban and accused Harris of supporting transgender surgeries for undocumented immigrants in prison, stirring online controversy.
Harris taking down Trumpâs history of racism was a big moment. She also brought up his extensive criminal history.
Her unemployment stat about Trump gets fact-checked.
Of course, there was an exchange about âsize.â Trump objected to lectern size adjustments to not appear similar in size to Harris. He also defended the size of his rallies after Harris called them âcrazyâ and fictional.
The âafterpartyâ was not pretty for Trump, who faced backlash for his debate performance (a website with his "weirdest quotes" has also cropped up). The markets seem to award victory to Kamala Harris, who also gained in prediction markets. Taylor Swiftâarguably the biggest celebrity of our timeâalso officially endorsed her.
