Rachel Maddow was just discussing DeJoy's 10 yr plan for the mail.

Let's just say it wasn't pretty (dropping the use of planes to transport mail and only using trucks is among the proposed changes). I was under the impression that 'DeJoy's days were numbered' now that Trump was out of office and another administration was appointing members to the postal committee. It sounds like whatever that number was on his days, it was pretty large...

Freaks like this, and much of the Conmafia, operate in a fashion that is, if not criminal, at best highly questionable. Dems respond by following the rules and playing nice. This response by the Dems only encourages worse, and more egregious activities, and abuses. KO DeJoy. For the love of God Dems.

That came from a place ten minutes from my house.

A freakin' snail could have literally delivered my mail faster.
