🚨 The fact that Postmaster General DeJoy owns so many $10s of millions in USPS competitors and contractors makes him the perfect person to sabotage the USPS for Trump. Now, it can simply be claimed DeJoy did it our of pur financial corruption instead of political corruption.
Let's also not forget that in 2006 the Tea Party controlled Congress enacted a law that the US Postal Service is required to have the money to pay out its pensions *75 years* out. that provision was intended to bankrupt the agency. NO OTHER AGENCY OR COMPANY DOES THAT.
Don't let anyone ever try to sell you "facts" that the USPS losses money.
It is insanity that USPS needs to have the money to pay pensions of future employees that *aren't even born yet*. It is legislative sabotage mascarading as financial conservatism. https://twitter.com/GSarafan/status/1292086677523976193?s=19
Obviously this year #VoteByMail is more important than ever. Everyone must take personal responsibility. Make sure you are registered (they remove you in some states), request your ballot ASAP, send it in EARLY, or if you can drop it off yourself.

The fix is in. Trump has (mostly) total control over the USPS and the election is to close for anything to be fixed. Trump and DeJoy's "efficiency" measures, & possibly worse, will be in place in November. It is up to you to make sure your vote is counted. https://twitter.com/GSarafan/status/1292085372944433154?s=19
MORE: Now USPS "has informed states that they’ll need to pay first-class 55-cent postage to mail ballots to voters, rather than the normal 20-cent bulk rate. That nearly triples the per-ballot cost at a time when tens of millions more will be delivered." https://prospect.org/coronavirus/unsanitized-federal-benefit-extension-anger-unemployment-evictions/
Do not forget, Trump is saying voting by mail is unsafe/fraudulent, as he and most members of his admin [checks notes] sent in their own ballots in the mail.

Do not forget, it is the GOP Senate that has refused to provide states funding for the election. https://twitter.com/GSarafan/status/1292094737202081792?s=19
