"The U.S. Postal Service is wildly popular with the American people and its service is essential and irreplaceable. Nobody voted for this. It is brazenly illegal, unconstitutional, and corrupt." - Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA08) bluevirginia.us/2025/02/frid...

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is coming—better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.

The list has around 30 people. I remain confused how so few unqualified dipshits can take over multiple government agencies and offices without anyone just saying nah and closing the door in their face.
