USPS is a time honoured institution.

Trump killing it off for his own selfish reasons, like staying out of prison, is criminal in itself.

Surprised y'all are not in front of the White House with pitch forks to remove the cause of it all.

USPS isn't needed its a waste of tax payer money, mail should be privatized. The smaller the government the better.

Mail is a essential for national security as a means of communication during disasters. That shouldn’t be in the hands of a corporation

Because the DEMONCRATS and their Rhino brothers and sisters are engaging in voter fraud to remove the president and whoever the power is behind him that bamboozled them to take the presidency

This isn't hard to figure out everyone...we are in a civil war of some kind right now...a coup has been underway since the election...and its ongoing

doesn't everyone remember the hit on the republican baseball practice?

Does everyone remember they tried to take out the train carrying Republican congressional leadership after the first state of the union with a fucking dump truck on the tracks lol

This is their retaliation to the demoncrats/uniparty going mail in and steal the election with fraud

beautiful move and its hillarious

The Post Office Is Deactivating Mail Sorting Machines Ahead of the Election

The United States Postal Service is removing mail sorting machines from facilities around the country without any official explanation or reason given, Motherboard has learned through interviews with postal workers and union officials. In many cases, these are the same machines that would be tasked with sorting ballots, calling into question promises made by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy that the USPS has “ample capacity” to handle the predicted surge in mail-in ballots.

Motherboard identified 19 mail sorting machines from five processing facilities across the U.S. that either have already been removed or are scheduled to be in the near future. But the Postal Service operates hundreds of distribution facilities around the country, so it is not clear precisely how many machines are getting removed and for what purpose.

Even to local union officials, USPS has not announced any policy, explained why they are doing this, what will happen to the machines and the workers who use them. Nor has management provided a rationale for dismantling and removing the machines from the facility rather than merely not operating them when they’re not needed.

“I’m not sure you’re going to find an answer for why [the machines being removed] makes sense,” said Iowa Postal Workers Union President Kimberly Karol, “because we haven’t figured that out either.”

“Look at it this way: Your local grocery store was forced to cut 1/3 of its cash-out lines, but management expected the same productivity, quality, and speed for the customer,” said an employee at a Buffalo distribution facility, which they said is set to lose six out of 21 mail sorting machines. “It’s just never going to happen.”

While the consequences of this new policy are mostly unclear for now, it neatly fits with the sudden, opaque, and drastic changes made by DeJoy, a longtime Republican fundraiser and Trump donor, in the less than two months he’s been postmaster general. Like his other changes, including the curtailing of overtime resulting in the widespread mail delays and sudden reorganization of the entire USPS, it is possible to see some semblance of corporate logic while second-guessing the decision to make drastic changes on the eve of the presidential election in which the USPS will play a critical role.

It's so obvious losing is not even an option within this mans huuuuge tremendous ego ...he would rather destroy it all and watch it burn than be considered a "Loser" to the world that watches .

Everyday now just blows my mind while at the same time also scaring the shit outta me .honestly have to make a point to avoid the "news " for a couple days each week .just to give my mind a rest .its unreal

Funny thing my wife said the other day. You know isn't the US Mail system kind of outdated. I said yeah, you know all they send is sales magazines and political ads. Everything else I can do online even magazines give you a digital version. Bills are all done online. I don't see any reason for them any longer. Occasionally I get a package in the mail but that could easily be sent by the companies who specialize in that, they seem to do a better job anyway.

When the machines are auctioned off, which company will purchase them and create a private letter delivery service?


Keeping an eye on XPO logistics.
