When is Biden going to fire postmaster general Louis Dejoy? Trump's lackey hired to compromise mail delivery ..in an attempt to hamper delivery of voting ballots.

The GOP-sponsored poison-pill legislation that forced the USPS to fund pensions 75 years out in the future must be repealed and a reasonable plan put in place.  It created an artificial funding crisis that Republicans favored in their drive to privatize the postal service.  Yes, remove the cackler and replace him with somebody who doesn't keep trying to sabotage the USPS.

Apparently, Good Ole Joe cannot directly fire DeBum.

We’ll Be Stuck With Trump’s Postmaster General for a While

Louis DeJoy is likely to last well into the Biden administration.

Too bad. Hunter would have been an experienced drug czar and Jill could head up security after seeing her come to Joe's aid and clear the stage of protesters. Even Major and Champ would do a better job than Ivanka and Jared did.

Things are finally and slowly getting back to normal arounf the WH.

Tick tock.

Our country is hurting financially, but if we're going to bring it back we have to spend some more money, we have to get people back on their feet, and I don't mean the rich, they've reaped the harvest of the Covid more than anyone has... It's going to hurt, but spend money now, it's going to make the healing a hell of a lot sooner than trying to squeeze the small businessmen, the poor/middle class than it is to let the wealthiest keep running over us... That's the (R) party's agenda, they want to control everything instead of only half of everything...

Now's the time to put the breaks on, raise taxes on the wealthy, make it hurt them for a few years and we'll get this country back to where it was... This has to happen... We need to get our health situation in order to, we're the only major country in the world that doesn't have a national health plan, we're the only country in the world that has so many people losing everything, going bankrupt because of our health policies... Big changes have to take place, get control of politics in this country, put the decisions of this country in someone's hands besides the rich (R) party they're the "pocketbook party" and they'll never change... There's no reason 1% of the population should be as wealthy as all the rest of the people all together in this country ?? Is there anyone that thinks that's right ??

America is breathing a collective sigh of relief...good things are bound to happen.
