Summary
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) agreed to cut 10,000 jobs under pressure from Elon Musk, sparking outrage from Democrats.
Rep. Gerald Connolly warned that Musk and DOGE could push for USPS privatization, harming rural and vulnerable communities.
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy defended the cuts, citing USPS’s financial struggles and praising DOGE’s cost-cutting approach. Musk has openly supported privatization.
Postal worker unions pledged to fight any threats to employees’ rights. The USPS has already reduced its workforce by 30,000 since 2021.
“FINANCIAL STRUGGLES”
IT’S.
A PUBLIC.
SERVICE.
WE PAY TO HAVE.
NOT. A FUCKING. BUSINESS. YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES TWATS.
Man they’re gonna clutch their pearls so hard
Without good postal service, many rural areas are going to be finished off. No more Amazon deliveries. No cheap farm equipment deliveries of small parts and consumables.
That’s fine, because they’re situated inside one of our many media monopoly zones and only have access to the outside world through far-right syndicated radio and TV. They won’t understand what happened or why, but will have Woke Liberalism presented as the cause of all their problems as soon as they ask.
And then, if any of them get too curious, a local Sheriff’s deputy will discover that this dissident wasn’t a real citizen anyway, so they can be quickly and quietly removed from view.
“LOL. Fuck em” - GOP cucks that totally don’t have gay sexual fantasies about trump and musk
And no mail in ballots for them!
Democrats outraged.
Like they will do something.
When you think of only blaming the democrats remember that the voters gave republicans the house, the senate and the presidency.
Still don’t get what gave “doge” the authority to do any of this shit.
Uh oh, Democrats are outraged. There will be hell to pay now.
Ooh. Outrage.
Honestly what would be amazing is if the post office went into banking, and becoming a network to distribute seed among farmers since the current legalized monopoly of Monsanto is horrific since you could get sued for plants doing their thing. I do most of my banking online, but having a branch bank that has branches all over no matter how far into the sticks you are would be amazing.
