HOUSTON — Operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service are causing delays in mail deliveries all over the country. A man in Humble said he had to go without his daily heart medication for a week due to the delays.

Don White, 82, said he has been tracking the package and said it remained at a north Houston mail processing facility for 10 days. He’s hoping to get in on Monday.

1. I just called my cardiologist for a "bridge" prescription for my hear meds.

Although I get them by mail, there is no way I can go without, so they are sending in the script today in the event the meds don't arrive in time. He should be able to do the same.

4. If this man can afford them

And has someone to pick up or deliver.

Glad you have taken action!!

2. How many people has Louis DeJoy killed that we don't know about?

[SheltieLover]

3. Great question!

7. 👆👆👆

5. Awful

And DeJoy, Trump and the GOP are responsible if he dies.

[SheltieLover]

6. They're already up 170k+

Maybe putin has bounty on American civillians?

[flibbitygiblets]

9. Whoa. Cold chills at that thought.

[Evolve Dammit]

8. such utter bullshit. They never stop the destruction of America. Putin must be so proud of GOP.

[SheltieLover]

11. Indeed!

Someone needs to put putin in his place!

[Evolve Dammit]

25. O did; H would have; Biden/ Harris will (here's hoping)

10. Everything tRump touches just turns to crap. Hope Don is OK.

[calimary]

14. Welcome to DU, Monsieur_Grumpe!

And if indeed everything trump touches just turns to crap, then I'm guessing he's enjoyed touching himself. That orange face paint makes him look like crap.

12. This is now criminal intent and cruelty

[SheltieLover]

21. Yup!

[Scalded Nun]

13. I sure would like it if they would begin prosecutions on this. If not now then next Jan.

Manslaughter?
Negligent homicide?
Depraved indifference?

And anyone/everyone in the decision chain would be charged.

That would be included with all of the other charges
Treason
Child trafficking
unlawful imprisonment (adults and minors)
Kidnapping
The list goes on. I do not care how many years it takes to jail these motherfuckers.

I just do not want to hear how we will be the 'bigger person' and put this behind us for the good of the nation. Doing that in 2009 got us where we are today. We repeat that at our peril.

20. I believe they absolutely MUST!

Anything less than ALL coconspirators tried & imprisoned will not be ok.

[AllaN01Bear]

15. they are messing with our lives again.

i agree.

[SheltieLover]

19. Of course they are!

At the behest of putin!

16. How Many Have Died From Trump That Didn't Have To Die

Maybe someone in the media could add up all the pollution, fires, covid, and all the other unnecessary deaths.

It's not like they are paid do do stuff like this right?

[JI7]

17. The media should do breaking news top of the hour stories on this

the way they did with Clinton emails.

[SheltieLover]

18. Absolutely!

👍

22. Isn't Houston one of the cities where DeJoy got rid of a lot of sorting machines?

[SheltieLover]

23. That's what I'd read. Yes.

All blue areas.

[LisaL]

24. Yes, major slowing up of mail in Houston.

26. KR!
