Same energy should be thrown at these dopes and they should be shown how much fire departments and police β€œlose” a year! Imagine if the FD only had 20 minutes to put out your blazing home so they can stay financially solvent

If we do some rounding to 3b divided by 154 million taxpayers, the average tax payer is paying 19.50 for the postal service in that period. That’s functionally nothing compared to what private delivery companies cost for the same volume sent and received

Lest we forget about the poison pill πŸ’Š that Republicans forced down the USPS throat years ago, and the man "Don the Con" posted to run it during his first administration.

Right wing idiots wanted this place run like a business instead of a service, and this is what it cost you: carriers pushing their bodies to the brink of collapse and sometimes beyond, so they don't get harassed by micromanagers who want you to account for every time you stop for 60 seconds

Lately I've seen many references to the 3.5% rule. A few years ago I pulled together this Q&A on potential uses and misuses of this statistic. www.hks.harvard.edu/sites/defaul...

This isn't an administration that cares about
"optics,
" but telling American families they don't
need many dolls and need to sacrifice then pivoting to needing a new 747-800 from a nation that has funded the murder of Americans is going to be problematic.

Sarah Moore GrimkΓ© was born into a slaveholding family but she chose to resist.

She fought for abolition and women’s rights, linking both as struggles for freedom.

She believed no one is free until everyone is.

One voice. Two fights. An Amazing legacy.

Two barn owls perched on a weathered wooden post during golden hour. One owl stands upright, looking forward with calm focus, while the other owl beside it has one eye closed in a playful wink. Their feathers glow with soft shades of cream, brown, and grey.
