Gosh, it's almost like republicans are brain dead. Do they have cotton in their ears? Can they not hear the masses screaming to open the economy RIGHT NOW and screw this fake pandemic? Do they not realize they win if they just open the damn economy?
It wasn't GW, it was a law passed in 2006 by congress (2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act) supported by both sides that the USPS just ignored and still do. And it was meant to prevent the very fraud and waste that occurs within the USPS, and so that they stop asking for billions every year to fund their own retirement program. All the right people blame it for the USPS failures but that isn't quite right. The USPS is simply a giant money-pit, at best, and a fraud-ridden, corrupt welfare program disguised as a tax-payer funded job program probably being a better description.
edit: here is an excellent write-up about this fiasco:
https://taxfoundation.org/postal-service-reform-postal-service-retiree-health-benefits-fund/
When the USPS get bailouts every quarter on the order of billions of dollars, where do you think that money comes from? Every dollar the US government spends is tax payer funded. Every package they deliver at a loss, is shipped at tax payer expense as well. The over time fraud that occurs to elevate retirement, that is tax payer funded. the USPS is one of the worst entities for fraud, waste, and abuse, period.
Edit: and before someone claims again that it is a 'self-funded operation', consider that while saying this the USPS defaulted on 42 Billion USD in payments to its retirement fund. Total nonsense and simply inexcusable.
Insanity. I came here to say this.
SF, the city with its own shit tracking app and full time excrement sweepers making over 100K/year, didn't even make the top 8. wow.
haspel getting shot in a battle between cia and special forces in germany was one of my favorites. good lord...
Mitch today blamed President Trump for jan 6th. What a scum bag he is
The NG is called up to assist, not take lead on security. It's in the EO and that is what was published by the NG press people.
The rumor i am hearing is that the conservatives in the dem counties are packing up and leaving for other areas of georgia where the counties have not been taken over by these freaks or going to other states like Florida. Plenty of libs are moving in i have seen it myself and others are coming into fulton, cobb, dekalb, gwinnett.
Chain of custody for ballots also broken or non-existent in several counties.
I agree with you. I also agree the GOP is essentially finished.
I suppose he could have asked the legislatures of the 6 states to confirm but there is some question if he had the authority to do that. If he had done that the Dem's would have taken it to Supreme Court to clarify what authority he has to do anything other than ask for certificates to be opened and electors to be read. Court probably would have sided with Dem's.
White flight has already started in the areas where the obvious fraud occurred where it had previously not been so obvious. That's the rumor anyway.
Objections in the senate were a path to failure anyway. All 99 of them could have objected and it would not have mattered one iota.
Duncan removed the Republicans from their committee chairs if they fought to uncover the fraud. All four: Gov, LT Gov, SoS, and little Gabriel are scum who sold Georgia to China and the democrats.
Correct and regardless of what OP thinks, no state sent multiple electors. None, zero, zilch. :)
They don't have ammo. Even with Trump as President they wouldn't have ammo. This is all for show.
Aren't we smart to observe that Trump deals with the terrorists with precision strikes? Trump's been dispatching bad guys easily without sending large numbers of troops around the globe.
there are phone apps too.
Thank you for providing the info. Lots of people don't know how arms are stored, issued as deployed, the lack of training for NG, etc.
I still think this is all for show and 99% of them will never have a live round anywhere near them. Just the officers, SNCO's, armorers, and guard duty peeps. You agree?
yeah - he was a mixed bag. Had some socialist political leanings unfortunately. Not uncommon then or now.
Almost every state has made private people organizing with weapons illegal. In NC, the unorganized militia may be called by the governor, but at any other time, doing anything militia-like (organizing, training with weapons and tactics, attending protests armed) is a crime.
Truth over facts. - slow joe.
