I didn't even read it. As soon as I saw his psycho signature on the bottom it went right into the trash.

I was confused, worried I was getting audited.

I ripped it up in a rage. Fucking asshole.

Glad to know my tax money is going to a good cause. (sarcasm)

On the flip side, it is supporting the USPS, so I guess there's that. Leave it to the orange stay-puff to shoot himself in the foot every time.

Does the idiot not realize if the USPS closes this wouldn't be possible?

But what am I asking?

Of course he doesn't.

I thought that people getting SS payments by direct deposit didn't have to do anything, but the site said they have NO idea where to deposit my money, but if I give them that info, they'll get it deposited, mucho pronto. Perhaps I read too much into their info, but that's the gist.

So, I did. It will be interesting to see how long it takes. The clock is now ticking.

expecting their check to be in it, and then finding it's just a taxpayer-money-wasting freaking letter from the dipshit, performing his usual auto-fellatio.

I bet a lot of them are going to be pissed off.

Trump. The destroyer of democracy, decency and our dreams of what we thought was a great country.

Please tell me this is illegal! Who runs the Treasury dept... Surely laws were broken.

I recall hen Republicans excoriated Clinton over his White House Christmas card list... That seems almost normal compared to Trump's dirty dealings.

This really needs a corroborating link before I go crazy.

They obviously have our addresses.

It's under the guise of "notifying" us the stimulus was deposited in our accounts.
