Two positions have opened up on the USPS Board of Governors—the only people with authority to fire Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.

Forces that stand to profit from further privatization, service cuts, and price hikes at the USPS are aggressively pressuring President Biden to fill those positions.

President Biden can—and should—fill both positions with people who actually care about protecting the Post Office and getting rid of DeJoy.

@elsantonegro @GreenFire @TruthSandwich Yes, because at least he's trying to encourage Bibi to stop. The other guy will not do that. In fact, a vote for anyone but Biden may facilitate genocides and deportations here in the US.

@GottaLaff
Even some Dems have a hard time dealing with Biden's very relaxed, methodical demeanor. 9 years of tRump's mania & lies have made Americans expect show biz & flim-flam from their politicians. The mature, experienced, devoted (& low-key) ones are now thought to be ineffective or weak. I hope we can come back from this.

"A key takeaway from these recordings and the Detroit News’s reporting is that Trump was deeply involved in the minutia of how to stop the electoral certification process, even down to the votes of a county board of canvassing. …

There is almost nothing better than the words of the defendant himself to help a jury understand things like motive and intent."

Joe Rogan says people regret voting for #Biden and labels him mentally incompetent for talking about “airports during the revolutionary war” — then fact-checks himself… and slowly realizes #TRUMP SAID IT. Whoopsy!🤦🏻‍♂️

When her family needed money, Nikki Haley found a lucrative path - The Washington Post apple.news/A8e2pqqxaS0S-KYDttJ Remind me again how the Qpublicans are going to drain the swamp when I see them being the swamp. She traded her new found knowledge as governor and ambassador for millions.

This could end up being the biggest infectious wave of the entire pandemic as we simply don't know yet how fast the new variant JN.1 and its offspring will reinfect and/or bypass vaccination

Meanwhile everyone is feeding the beast in unmasked denial

Another vaporware dream created by Elon Musk finally dies. Hyperloop One, formerly Virgin Hyperloop, is selling off its assets, laying off its remaining workers, and preparing to shut down by the end of the year.

The hyperloop was a concept Elon Musk championed to distract the public from California’s efforts to build a high speed rail network.

High speed rail ran against the idea that fixing the problem with cars required EVs and self driving. So he derailed it.

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. - S. Weinberg
