It's time to take to the streets and call for the resignation of the postmaster general now!

This BS can't continue to go on. As the Votevets ad points out, many folks are not getting their prescriptions and we know he is trying to steal the election.

 :whatever:

Another outright lie from the left.

2. I wrote to my republican congressman yesterday

About the post office, I didn't say I was a democrat, i was real sweet just worried about getting our medicine as we are seniors.

I was surprised since I know he is a Trumper he was very sweet to me and told me money was in the cares act for it. Which makes me wonder since he is retiring this year if he was going to vote for it. And he must have known when he wrote that, that Trump wouldn't vote for it.

His name is Greg Walden from southern oregon.

He also thinking I am stupid told me the post office is in debt and struggling for years. It is not in debt except for what his people did to it. I am sure he thinks I knew nothing about it.

He reassured me they are keeping the rural offices open.

What that told me was a few things the republicans do care about losing older people's votes because of this.

Postal Service Net Income/Loss By Year
2019 - $8.8 billion loss
2018 - $3.9 billion loss
2017 - $2.7 billion loss
2016 - $5.6 billion loss
2015 - $5.1 billion loss
2014 - $5.5 billion loss
2013 - $5 billion loss
2012 - $15.9 billion loss
2011 - $5.1 billion loss
2010 - $8.5 billion loss
2009 - $3.8 billion loss
2008 - $2.8 billion loss
2007 - $5.1 billion loss

2006 - $900 million surplus
2005 - $1.4 billion surplus
2004 - $3.1 billion surplus
2003 - $3.9 billion surplus
2002 - $676 million loss
2001 - $1.7 billion loss


When Postal Service Losses Began
The Postal Service carried billion-dollar surpluses for many years before the Internet became widely available to Americans.

Although the Postal Service lost money in the early part of the decade, in 2001 and 2003, the most significant losses came after the passage of a 2006 law requiring the agency to refund retiree health beneļ¬ts.

Under the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006, the USPS is required to pay $5.4 billion to $5.8 billion annually, through 2016, to pay for future retiree health benefits.

3. Thanks for the effort, and for the info.

As to 'keeping rural offices open,' wonder where he got that from.

Probably from the Post Office

USPS to Keep Rural Post Offices Open
https://www.cnbc.com/id/47357366 (in 2012, btw)

At a news briefing, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe said the mail agency was backing off its plan to close up to 3,700 low-revenue post offices sometime after May 15. Citing strong community opposition, Donahoe said the agency will now whittle down full-time staff but maintain a part-time post office presence in rural areas, with access to retail lobbies and post office boxes.

6. Take a stand against Trump's interference in our elections

The link below allows you to open a complaint with the USPS Inspector General regarding Trumps interference in our elections. Take a stand!

What is the complaint you are going to cite?

It's time to take to the streets

you ****ers have been doing that for the past 2 1/2 months. 

Your new "protest" will be drowned out by the "justice for George Floyd/BLM/Universal living wage/Free rent" protesters who are already out there and beat you to it.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Police lives matter.

DUNAC - DU-Non Action Committee! :rotf:  :tongue:
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Yeah, that'd really fix things...considering the Senate won't have time to confirm any replacement before the election, it pretty much sounds like a recipe for even more chaos.
