Despite PG promises, House Dems to proceed w/Saturday vote on bill rolling back DeJoy's USPS changes

Greg Sargent @ThePlumLineGS·11m
House Democrats will proceed with their Saturday vote on the bill rolling back DeJoy's USPS changes *despite* his announcement, a senior Dem aide confirms.

"There are holes in this announcement," the aide tells me.

Put everything back where it was and then get the fuck out. Congress will take care of what you have coming post haste.

As well as stopping the presses on the ongoing nonsense with the Post Office. Half-hearted measures will not work and Dejoy and Trump don't get off that easily. This is fraud and an illegal obstruction to voting by the electorate, the same electorate that is ready to toss their asses to the curb.

Btw, I double checked my registration yesterday because the online checker at the TN State Department indicated they had no file on me. Even though I voted in the August 6 election down here. Contacted the Registration Department and received a very quick response saying I was indeed registered, then thanking me for my early vote and suggesting I vote as early as possible. Don't leave it go until Election Day, the registration manager suggested.

Good advice, methinks.

Exactly. Like those sorting machines reportedly stripped down, carted away and disappeared. These suckers need to pay. Through the nose!
