It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Let’s be 100% clear. The postal service is literally in the Constitution, explicitly assigned as a congressional power. If Congress wants to abolish or privatize it, that’s up to Congress. The President can’t just wake up one day and do it on his own.

Hey @chatterton.bsky.social Rufo, among many other things, made up evidence that Haitians were eating people's pets. Now some 500,000 Haitians who were here legally are likely going to get deported. Glad he criticized you in "good faith" though. Enjoy staying on a platform run by the administration

Again I am begging people in the media to note the legality of these actions in their headlines or blurbs. A post office is literally written into the constitution.
