Mine is Lucy McBath who rocks too.

@@lexyswope I wasn’t familiar with her so I looked her up real quick. Looks like a winner! I love her positions on anti violence, gun control and education. Isn’t it great to have a representative that actually works for the people she represents? I like this trend on strong females in Congress. Mothers. They know how to fight (omg! Metaphorically! You have to be careful. The lunatics are listening) for their own.

@@kittiwhieldon4329 Her son was murdered for playing music too loudly. That turned her active. Her opponents say that that's her only issue, but she understands the complexities of what people face and fights for people. Until 2017 this district was 65% Red. Newt Gingrich, Tom Price. In a special election in '17 Jon Ossoff lost by 1% to Karen Handel. In '18 McBath won by 1%. In '20 it was a 10% margin. During the 1st impeachment I was dozing and woke to a woman questioning the witnesses and thought, "She's sharp!" It was Lucy.😷😁😷 It's hard to beat Katie, though. Love them both. Ossoff's communication ability helped a lot to change the district so there are a lot of great guys too. So now we have two great Senators, too.

@@lexyswope Wow! That is actually wonderful news for once. I read up on Ms. McBath and I cannot find anything about her that I don’t love! It breaks my heart that she lost her son in such a pointless and ignorant way. As terrible as that was instead of wallowing in self pity she determined be a part of the solution so other parents wouldn’t have to suffer the loss of a precious child. And that certainly is not all that she has taken on! Healthcare, education, veterans, LGBTQ equality! And more! She’s a force of nature! I’ll be honest with you. I’ve been interested in politics my whole life. My dad and I used to have great discussions about whatever was going on politically. My younger son caught the bug too and graduated Magna Cum Laude from UCI with a degree in Political Science. The speaker at his graduation was President Obama! Anyway. I used to be a republican. Until 2010. The tea party and all their insanity changed my mind and I became an independent. When trump was elected I was devastated. Quite frankly I wasn’t a big fan of Ms. Clinton but she was certainly better that the dumpy little reality “star”. I voted for the libertarian. I just could not vote for that misogynist trump and I wasn’t quite ready to vote democrat. I was so distraught about the travesty of that xenophobic bigot in the White House that I boycotted the news and politics until shortly before the election in November 2020. So I was unaware of anything political until I could see a light in the tunnel. I proudly voted for Joe Biden. It was a vote against trump. But it was also a vote for President Biden. I refuse to blindly vote without knowing who or what I am voting for. I looked into Mr. Biden and became convinced that he would not only be a vote against trump, he would be the leader that we need in these difficult times. I’m impressed with him so far. The two party system has failed us. Neither side is perfect but compared to this criminal group of seditious liars that call themselves republicans the democrats look like saints. Anyway, I’m trying to catch up on everything political that I missed during my trump boycott. It looks like some good people came to office in spite of him and his minions. I doubt I’ll ever vote for a Republican again. There is no place in this world for their fascist policies, hatred and lies. Thanks for filling me in on Lucy McBath. I’ll keep an eye on her. She is doing good things for all of us!

Hahahahahaha I remember that.

Maybe Amazon can take over the mail. Just kidding but can’t be any worse than it is now.

Still awaiting three gifts/cards sent out to my nieces and nephews in December. I’ve also had four cards/letters returned with “invalid address” stamped on the envelope despite the facts that the letters mailed were addressed to people who’ve resided at the addresses on the envelopes for years and I’ve mailed things to them, successfully, for years. USPS is a literal dumpster fire and DeJoy expects the taxpayers to keep paying for the opportunity to watch it continue to burn.

@@timb7775 I agree. Instant payment online is better. Doesn’t matter, though.

More importantly, it should never be a political scam instrument.

Actually if one goes back in postal history and the funding expectations put upon the postal service then one could understand that Dejoy was being realistic, forthcoming and brutally honest with that answer.

@@VinhNguyen-ek5lr Yes that too. But he does actually speak out of the side of his mouth and comes of as arrogant and annoyed that he has to be there.

@Randall Johnson the post office shouldn’t go ‘belly up’. That’s like the water company or waste disposal failing. The conditions for the post office to face failure is a set of manufactured constraints imposed to satisfy special interests that would love to see a public delivery service be replaced by private package carriers. Also, I’m pretty sure all federal retirees get their retirement even when the ‘government shuts down’ just that it might be a bit late. Nixon started the ball rolling for the demise of the postal service and it seems many people would love to see it finished.

While correct about not making money, the USPS is supposed to at least break even, that's why postage exists. A large part of why the USPS is in debt is due to private shipping companies.

@@bstybyz3 yep, but it's still a necessity, that should always be available regardless of cost. and I wouldn't even expect it to break even, but 40 billion in debt is absurd, somethings clearly wrong.

The POTUS doesn't directly hire or fire the Postmaster General, it has to be done by the Board of Governors within the postal service. Currently the 6 members of that board are all Trump appointees. Biden has just recently nominated 3 new members for the Board, but they need to be approved by Congress.

Trump. Please learn proper punctuation. Makes you seem uneducated.

The post office wouldn't work as a truly private entity because it's required to do things private businesses would never do because it's not profitable. To make it profitable would make it more expensive and cause it to worsen service.

That’s a stupid idea. With your logic we should privatize the military since they don’t make a profit either. The post office is a public good and equalizes communication between all persons in this country.

Close enough.

Agreed. Katie is great at grilling people and articulating their uselessness but in this particular clip, that didn't happen. The Post Office is drowning in debt because of congressional legislation forcing them to fund retirement benefits 50 years in advance and without raising the price of postage. It's an intentionally unsustainable law.
