One of the first targets here will almost certainly be blocking the mailing of abortion medications like mifepristone. If I'm right, it'll be a the biggest blow to reproductive freedom since the repeal of Roe.

Breaking news: Trump is preparing to dissolve the leadership of the U.S. Postal Service and absorb the independent mail agency into his administration, potentially throwing the mail provider and trillions of dollars of ecommerce transactions into turmoil.

All: Do not substitute words for actions.
Elected officials: don't just virtue signal, do the hard work.
Everyone else: Do something every day to resist and inform.

Keep the pressure and shame on the cowering Republicans in congress. They have the power to stop this madness.
Do we still have a Constitution?
Mother of god people, STRIKE!
A lot of people won't be getting their mail, ballots, meds, you name it.
Corporations are bending the knee, thoroughly. You can bet a privatized mail service would act on it's customers lists accordingly.

Put it on your calendar
Bring food and water and love for your country !
Be the change we need.
Show up!
Why aren’t we pushing for some accountability for the violation of the Constitution and violation of court orders?
The law means nothing to them, They are the law
It's still a very alarming move, as most of Trump and Musks moves have been.
FORGET ...GETTING GOOD SERVICE! HARK! Send his FUCKED UP KID TO DRLIVER MAIL ..
He received those campaign donations
Dems didn’t.
I never thought I'd miss those days.
The dems have no abilities at all to do anything about any of this.
What, form a committee to talk sternly about trump?
Tell him this is bad and he shouldn’t do it?
Remember the female voters that decided that it was better to sit this one out rather than vote for a woman or the guys that thought she laughed funny?
I am going to be laughing hard as they get fucked and get to keep the children.
Well,
Nobody believed me when he sucked up the FCC in his presidential kingly adventures.
Does TDS have a nice ring to it?
Trump Delivery Service, that is.
The most I can tell them is CA is a land of its own in some cases. But that’s all I have to offer.
Are we going back to mustard baths and coat hangers?
STOP the insanity America. !!!!
The will of one man is not democracy.
The will of the PEOPLE is democracy.
No one person should be subjugated by another.
Here's a thought... Stop informing us of the madness you're allowing and act like a U.S. Senator.
Take action, and stop idly watching the country burn.
The time was November, it’s over.
We support you, but we can't support you doing nothing!
But, here's one for you...how about a bill that SPECIFICALLY states that DOGE is not a department? Or, how about passing a budget bill now/freezing any changes to Medicaid and Medicare
He has absolutely no authority over the post office. It's in the constitution.
Get in the fight and improve your messaging.
Other than to call for a revolution, there isn't anything the Democrats can legally do.
What good is a shadow cabinet?
They are leading protests.
They can introduce all the legislation they want. It's not going to make it out of committee.
How are they going to obstruct?
Go upstairs, ask your parents, I'm sure they do too.
If you want to cut bloat at the PO take a look at middle mgmt. I forget the exact numbers but 15 years ago it was 7 supervisors per carrier, now 18
My father is a Vet. And I have no idea how this will affect him yet.
I also KNOW voting will be nightmare. There won’t be fair or honest elections again in this country.
And it IS about me, you and EVERYONE.
The orange menace vaccine
They aren't playing by the rules.
And dems keep whining about the rules without doing a daumn thing to actually enforce them.
The onerous for action is on the DNC POLITICIANS to fight back
What's with the goddamn hand-wringing.
trump has no power here - grow a fucking spine.
Stop telling us what HE plans to do - start putting a stop to his illegal bullshit.
jfc DO YOUR GODDAMN JOBS!
And get ready for customs delays. Sad.
Because you didn't vote, and they have no legal power in Congress.
Informing people of Trump's misdeeds is about all they can do. Other than calling for a revolution, there isn't much Democrats can do.
The PRESIDENT is the one who lacks legal power to dissolve or create agencies.
Stop trying to blame the public for the failure of congress to do it's daumn job.
What powers do you think the minority party actually has? I'm curious.
Not back in November.
Additionally as per the constitution Trump literally does not possess the powers to do most of what he has attempted... The legislative branch exists as a power block against this authoritarian bs.
Damn the rest of us.
By doing it for their families and country will be ‘good for their souls’.
They will barely get by financially.
You are my hero.
Dems let America down. Now they're pretending to fight? With what? Pom poms and cheers?
History shows this tactic works well with fascists.
And much more.
Less bluesky and more real world action
If only for the novelty it will give them a megaphone
