This is great, but as long as the Red and Swing States facilitate Trump's sabotage of the USPS, he can still pull it off.

as well as the state of Virginia, NC, SC, Texas, etc. The AG in each state must file the same law suit against this bozo.

The problem is that it won't do any good if only the die in wool Dem States file suits. Trump and his R governors are targeting the swing States and the Red States that are on the verge to swinging back D.

The suit was filed in DC federal district court, which has jurisdiction over the postal service. If the court rules against the USPS, the ruling would apply to all of its activities, regardless in what state.

Hawaii, New Jersey and several cities have joined the suit.

But more important, the suit was filed in DC federal district court and asks the court to block any substantial, nationwide changes to service from being implemented without first seeking an opinion from the Postal Regulatory Commission.

If they prevail, the ruling would apply nationwide and would be huge.
