Every single one of us needs to call all of our reps about USPS slowdown.

Federal, state and local. Call them all. Email them all. Get your friends and neighbors to. This is delaying medicine, paychecks, everything. Even repukes want their pills and money. Let’s end this shit right fucking now.

Neighborhoods across the Philadelphia region are experiencing significant delays in receiving their mail, with some residents going upwards of three weeks without packages and letters, leaving them without medication, paychecks, and bills.

Shipped 5 days ago. Tracked from Chicago suburbs to Denver, then to Las Vegas, where it's been sitting for 2 days. Was supposed to arrive by the 31st.
A second package from New Jersey is puddle jumping the same way.
This is a new phenomenon for me. Anyone else noticing this?

Golf courses, country clubs, vacation resorts, evangelical instructions/bribe pickups, insider trading meetings, Board meetings on new ways to screw everyone else, and Fundraisers/Bribes from the World's wealthiest tyrants. Meanwhile their staff has been ordered to run the office on autopilot with FUX Newz scripted talking points without any COVID-19 protections in place.

Oh, and Republican Reps and Senators get ass-kissing premium service from the Congressional Pharmacy and never have to worry about not receiving their prescriptions.
