There is zero question that the Trump Administration is going after mail voting.

Trump has discussed privatizing the Post Office. Removing its independence is a step toward doing that.

Everyone said, don’t worry, elections are controlled by the states, he can’t mess with them. And here we are.

Get ready for TrumpMail!

The thought of the stamps alone… 🤢

Of course, Musk can’t as easily rig mail-in ballots.

Ben Franklin should pop out of his grave and shamble his dead hedonist ass into the White House and whack Trump in the noggin.

Republicans think they’re entitled to all our tax money. 🤬

But fortunately ( or maybe not), establishing the post office is one of Congress’s specifically enumerated Article I powers.

My thoughts exactly.

Privatizing the Postal Service is going to be so great for all of those sparsely populated red states. Enjoy.💸💸💸

Drop off your ballots at local SOE office.

🤦‍♂️ WTF WAPO. It’s the very FIRST thing that came to my mind. This is not journalism… by a long shot.

What does anyone expect this to look like? Are postal carriers supposed to just disappear votes that get cast? Here in Colorado, you get an email letting you know your vote has been counted. We’d know.

We do the same in Oregon. And yet, we have yahoos who insist mail-in voting is rigged, and that’s why we haven’t had a Republican governor since it was implemented.

Amen.

Bingo!!
That is the obvious reason.

#ConvictedFelon47 looks like an orange turd suffering from dementia as he poses with all the EO's he's been given to sign from the Federalists and others composers of Project 2025.
It's time for him and Musk to #CatchFire🔥.

The CEO of UPS wants the USPS gone so they can have a monopoly. Delivery to rural areas loses money and UPS / FedEx do not deliver in those areas. This will hurt rural communities including those that rely on the U.S. mail for checks and medications.

Didn’t he mail in vote in this last election? Not that it stopped him from complaining about mail in voting. What’s good for me, but not for thee…

paulinefrancis.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Yes, he'll want to ban mail in voting and also require that everyone vote on election day.

huntjal.bsky.social•1 day ago

Fight against this!

pittsburghdan.bsky.social•1 day ago

Well fuck them then. I’ll show up in person and vote every time like it’s my job.

linzgonerogue.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah. In PA I just my letter last week asking if I wanted to vote by Mail and I’m gonna go in person bc I don’t trust something being sabotaged

sarahbe.bsky.social•1 day ago

Exactly!

sybilltrelawney.bsky.social•1 day ago

Absolutely. Even if it’s technically “allowed,” who could trust the integrity of mail-in voting if Trump controls the mail?

montblake.bsky.social•1 day ago

Biden wasn’t allowed to fire DeJoy but Trump can just dissolve the board and privatize the whole USPS? What world is this?

modoubtingthomas.bsky.social•1 day ago

His.

He'll legalize voting via X.

tross.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Congress resisted Biden. Republicans control Congress and won't do jack to stop Trump.

tross.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Biden tried to work with the Board - y'know, the legal way; Trump is firing the board, and then taking over the postal system.

It gets worse. Once he has control, he also controls how people file tax returns. Suddenly everyone he doesn't like is legally a criminal. That's the end of 2026.

Good news in Iowa in a Trump plus 21 percent state senate seat.
