There goes your argument that Chump can't get his word out.

It wasn't just that. It was also the granular knowledge of individual voters in key precincts in key states, provided by the Russian secret service, using data they obtained from Cambridge Analytica, given to them "under false pretenses" by Facebook, that allowed the KGB/Trump campaign to implant a form of online post hypnotic suggestions to very specific voters with targeted adds that appeared once or twice and then disappeared without trace, that gave them the ability to flip key states by narrow margins. Don't forget that in a fair election, Clinton won by three million votes. The Russian/Cambridge Analytica/Facebook Trump used targeted propaganda to get a few critically placed voters to vote for Trump, stay home, or go to the polls and write in Mickey Mouse or something. It can't happen again, because people are watching now. That's why the Republicans want to use brute force to keep enough democrats away from the polls in 2022 and beyond.

That does NOT mean that SS cannot have political opinions, and if ceratin ones really believed in the right-wing and TFGs goals they certainly could've tried to get rid of those calls.

It's simple - because of the rules - having nothing to do with either party. the president does not have the authority to get rid of the head of the USPS, only the board. I presume that rule was so the president could not hire a political appointee.

But the people who wrote those rules somehow did not think that a president, in this case TFG, could appoint so many USPS boardmembers who woulf then appoint the criminal DeJoy that TFG wamted.

And I imagine that even Joe Biden cannot suspend the rules or he would've done it alraedy

I was at my doctor's office yesterday (for a checkup) and we were both masked and were talking about how many people here in Central NY are not botheiringr any more, in particular younger people. I have my mask on from the moment I leave my house, and there are still required on the busses.I think that new variant will be worse, as my doctor does, and so now I NEED to wear my mask becuse of others.

You may be correct but I want all the agents whose texts disappeared to state under oath that they did not attempt to migrate their contacts etc. My wife and I recently got new phones. It would have been possible, maybe, to have migrated everything bu texts but it would have been ridiculously tedious to have done so.

It seems to me that failure to produce documents as required by law should allow removal for cause.

My understanding is that Sen. Bernie Sanders blocked at least 3 USPS board appointments by Obama, leaving empty slots that were filled by TFG.

I was rearranging books the other day and came across one of his. It felt really good to chuck that tome right in the garbage.
