I want American traitors charged with treason. They’re easy to find, they’re in the government.
@StillIRise1963 they have not even removed DeJoy as postmaster general, but let him continue to destroy the post office... Mindboggling
@carstenfranke I don’t understand that situation.
@StillIRise1963 @carstenfranke Well, you would think it shouldn't be too difficult to do but the office of Postmaster General is overseen by a board of 9 governors, the majority of which are Trump appointees. Congress and the President's hands are tied. Trump may be an idiot, but somebody in his administration knew how to play the game. Hopefully it won't bite us the ass.
@ambulocetus @StillIRise1963 one problem is that Biden nominated a Republican, and that there are two vacant seats. It seems this has not been a priority to fix.
@carstenfranke @StillIRise1963 I don't know why he hasn't filled the empty seats, but it might have something to do with the rule that says that there can't more than 5 seats from the same party. Maybe he's trying to do a "Moscow Mitch"? IDK.
@StillIRise1963 @ambulocetus it is a small, very visible issue. I have been shipping with the post office for almost 18 years, and the last few years DeJoy has been in office the service levels have dramatically dropped. I was able to ship anywhere in MN in a day, now it is 2 days in my city, and 3 to 4 days anywhere else in the state. Forcing me to UPS at higher price. And rural areas in northern MN see long mail delays. If that is the power of 1 trump guy, what are all the others on power do?
@carstenfranke @StillIRise1963 You're right, the service has gone down. But I will still rather give money to them than to UPS, because that's what they want us to do, and it's always a mistake to do what your enemy wants you to do. The Post Office is an American Institution that is hated by the fake patriots on the Right, and I'm going to do everything I can to keep them from destroying it. The Post Office is the biggest employer of veterans and the GOP chicken-hawks hate the vets, no matter how many flags they put on their monster trucks.
@ambulocetus @StillIRise1963 oh absolutely, I do what I can to ship with the post office. But a lot of my products are for industrial applications and are time critical. So I sometimes have to use UPS.
@carstenfranke I hope we get to find out. And, yeah the mail is really upsetting. It takes a long time for things to arrive.
@ambulocetus
@ambulocetus Whatever it is, it’s very annoying in light of a coup.
