Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
As someone not too familiar with US politics, could someone please give some information on what this news means for the future?
I think that no matter what the question is, the answer is "more unfettered capitalism"
The Democratic party (of which she was a part) will circle the wagons and come up with another neoliberal to take her spot.
The republicans might be able to use her vacancy on the committees she was on to block more corporate friendly neoliberal judges from getting appointed, but nobody will really notice a difference, because both major parties support capital, and therefore appoint roughly the same kind of think tank ghouls.
well for one thing, I believe with her death the average age of the senate has dropped by 18 years
That is kind of amazing and sad at he same time. But remember, ~bourgeoisie~ democracy is the best thing anyone can hope for
