Where di Sidney Powell state this? I don't see it on her Twitter feed. Many mail carriers (especially in rural areas) often (legally) use their personal vehicles to perform their duties.

Right, but none of them are allowed to just have bins in the bed open like that.

not likely her real account though, a fake Powell acct

Why does this even matter?

What’s the difference between real account tweeting “she’s being told about a German server” or a fake account making equally substantiated claims? (“Unknown sources tell me this was a privately owned vehicle”)

Personally, I trust Powell's word more than a rando fake acct when dealing with photos that could be shopped, but maybe that is just me

Don't know where you heard that, but it's a felony. They may get a stipend to use their vehicles though, which would make them a federal carrier. It's very bad juju to mess with mail carriers....and cigarette carriers, but if you really want to f, up, mess with the guy carrying nuclear missile parts or chemical weapons. The gov't get's real excited then. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1696

The cig statement is accurate, a guy i know abput 10 years ago stole several cases of cigs that had tax apply and had every layer of government hunting him down over it.

Now you want anonymity, steal a boxcar full of automatic weapons in Chicago. You won't hear a mouse squeak. Fricking unbelievable.

I have lived in rural areas my whole life. Most of that time, my mail was delivered by a private vehicle, owned by the postal carrier. Like many, many other people’s mail. Also, I think we all know that mail is carried on a variety if privately owned aircraft.

So, Dafuq?

Biden sticker is photoshopped. Jpg pixel artifacts if you zoom into the sticker. fake photo. always has been.., it’s been trying to gain traction this month.

A fake photo of a non crime, it seems.

Not saying it is real, but there are also jpeg artifacts on the Make and model below it. It is a jpeg image. On the OP image, they are all appropriately sized.

This is the oldest one I can find(Nov 7). Better quality, but I would rather it be better, seems like a screenshot of the original from a facebook page or something. The area around the Biden sticker is lighter, but that might be expected for a white sticker. The most striking artifacts I see look like ringing from a sync/lanczos filter, but that could be from all kinds of things(camera lens distortion correction etc).

Not a photoshop expert. But the most direct source I can find is an internet post on nov 7 of a screenshot of an internet post on nov 6th that I can't find. That alone is enough for me to not trust it.

At least it has the original person's name, but it looks like a really common name.

this picture is from Phoenix, AZ - there aren't rural mail carriers in the Phoenix Metro area.

Does that in some way make the accusation true, that’s it’s a crime to do so? No.

No, the messed up part is the bins just being in the bed open. Everyone I know who does contract delivery has to have a van, suv, pickup with bed cover. They are mostly newer rigs too. Not some 90’s Ranger.

when post offices get more of those bins in than they have room for they do transfer them to other post offices or to the regional facility

This sticker is photoshop, and transport via private vehicles isn't illegal (though extremely uncommon in populated areas).

a lot of small businesses transport their shipments to the post office themselves so that it doesn't fill up the postal vehicles, I do it everyday

Many private businesses use postal bins to carry mail to/from the post office. The post office will often supply them because it saves them a step in processing. The business drops off their mail and picks up empty bins on a rotating basis.

yes this is facts, I get bags and totes weekly and some of them still have the "campaign tag" attached to them, they're to busy to unwind the wire to remove it

I know several rural carriers that own their own mail delivery vehicle. Not sure what the laws are, but it’s commonplace. Hmmm

The picture doesn't prove anything, that could be a private citizen mailing out his own mail. Sounds stupid I know, but a picture isn't evidence without context.

This photo is proof of nothing. Where was this photo taken? When was this photo taken? What's in the bins?

This is evidence of what?

Other Questions...Date of Photo? State? Transport from USPS to counting center or transportation from county office to counting center? Operator county employee, USPS or Campaign member? Received date? Postmark date?

yall are not going to like this comment but that photo means absolutely nothing. I own my business and I do shipments every single day. The red campaign tags are left on bags/totes by the post office, they're to busy to unwind the wires to remove them. I have those tags on some of my mail bags right now. I also have a trump sticker on my vehicle and I drop the mail off in it. I know yall don't want to hear this but it's the absolute truth and we need FACTS not just guesses. Anyone can go into the post office and get those totes and bags free of charge if your bringing in a lot of mail, you can even just grab them from a huge box behind the post office on their loading dock
