USPSIS.GOV Email says they're hiring postal inspectors... probably preparing to interfere with election.

No question in my mind this is to prepare to interfere with mail-in ballots.

I just got the email I don’t know who else got it.

One duty was to walk routes with individual route carriers in cities. In one week that can be miles and miles.

The bastards know that but they are going to completely destroy our ability to vote pretending that’s the problem.

preparing to cause havoc with Mail in ballots, and as someone else pointed out they’ll also be making sure Women can’t get necessary medical care through the mail.

I just hope the American people realize elections are no more, sure we’re going to campaign and vote we’re gonna do all those things but please for God sake do not rely on elections.

comfortably in that mix. (and made for a really poor argument in previous elections as well). 'Fixing' the mail is a fairly tall order - and is going to get noticed.

I witnessed them being used to go after shop stewards.

So no.

No one had any idea what postal inspectors did. There were 2 way mirrors on every work floor where PIs could watch everyone. I have no idea what you are talking about.
