I'm back from my latest terrorist activity, i.e. supporting our postal workers at a peaceful protest outside a post office downtown.

There were a lot of postal workers in their union shirts, but also people like me who just showed up in support. We got insane amounts of honking and waving from people in traffic, even a DHL truck! All the postal service workers laughed at that, but as one of them said, "Yeah, we're all in this together."

USPS Makes Alarming Deal With Elon Musk’s DOGE

US Postmaster General #LouisDeJoy is welcoming DOGE with open arms.

"DeJoy said... #DOGE was “an effort aligned” with... shrinking the USPS,

#Musk also believes that the #USPS should be privatized...

#Privatization... would raise prices, hurt postal workers, and negatively impact #rural communities, who are served by USPS thanks to the #Constitution and federal #law."

As a disabled person who relies on multiple medications and supplies that are manufactured or sourced in China… the suspension of USPS packages from China and Hong Kong is deeply disturbing. Even a temporary stoppage could be catastrophic for us.

disabled people are canaries in the coal mine. Anything that will impact non disabled people will often hit us harder and faster.

Include us in resistance & emergency preparedness.

If you have means, consider helping a disabled person stock up on necessary supplies. We often lack the funds to be able to “prep” and yet can’t withstand a shortage the way a healthy person can.

Never forget that good health gives you a degree of resilience … and that resilience is a gift. Don’t waste it. Prepare. Plan. Help others.

REMINDER: #USPS #PostOffice makes plenty of profit, so much so they can fund retirement benefits for (75) SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS in advance, by law. They had $300B+ in the bank before Congress repealed that stupid law. They could make a profit, but we dont need them to, its a SERVICE we all want. Not all profit is counted in dollars retained in a bank account #CapitalismIsKillingYOU
Its time to start fighting back now yall before we lose the few lil services poor ppl have https://ips-dc.org/why-the-just-passed-postal-service-reform-act-is-such-a-big-deal/

Just tried to use the US postal service and was reminded that one of its bitterest enemies is in charge of it.
