What's going on at the USPS

trump isn't even trying to hide his determination to ruin the election and his bigotry toward whole groups of Americans. He has admitted that he is using the hoodlum whom he made head of the USPS to suppress the vote. These actions demonstrate his intention to undermine and destroy democracy in the U.S. and install an authoritarian government with himself at the helm. He is a very dangerous man.
 
Just read where automatic mail sorting machines, the kind used to sort mail-in ballots, are being pulled at some facilities around the country meaning those ballots will have to be sorted by hand, a slow cumbersome process. Something fishy is going on.

Well, Trump has all but admitted that he doesn't want mail in voting because he knows it will hurt his reelection as well as the chances of all other Republicans.
 
trump is forcing the USPS to function as an arm of his election campaign. This is yet another example of his gross abuse of power.
I think you're dead wrong. What I do think is he appointed somebody that may screw things up pretty good for a month or 2.
 
From 2016, before Trump-


As part of the NRI, on January 5, 2015, the Postal Service revised its First-Class Mail® service standards, eliminating single-piece overnight First-Class Mail service and shifting mail from a 2-day to a 3-day service standard. These revisions enabled the Postal Service to expand its mail processing operational window and this change is known as the operational window change (OWC). The Postal Service described the OWC as one of its most significant changes since automating mail processing. It was designed to allow the Postal Service to process mail on fewer machines, thus using less facility square footage.

The OWC was projected to save over $805 million annually through increased mail processing productivity, decreased premium pay, additional delivery point sequencing of mail, less mail sorting at fewer facilities, and use of more efficient mail sorting machines. The OWC also required changes in mail transportation.


This is a follow-up to an earlier SPSS audit (Report Number NO-AR-18-002, dated November 29, 2017) that found the Postal Service, on average, nationally exceeded the throughput performance goal by 5 percent but was below the productivity goal by 17 percent.

Since that audit, the Postal Service has spent $52.6 million to purchase and deploy 11 additional SPSS machines. In total, the Postal Service has invested $187.2 million since FY 2014 to purchase 44 SPSS machines at 36 locations throughout the country. There were 41 SPSS machines in FY 2019 and the Postal Service added three more machines in FY 2020, but have no plans to add additional machines at this time.

So, this is nothing new.

I'd say it's nothing good, either. The mail IS being slower these days.

Oh, and yet those same union employees putting out the crap machines are being pulled also state, our system is so great that you will see no problem with the timely delivery of ballots, even though they are supposedly throttling us. Lol

Yep, they can’t stand overtime was pulled, and they aren’t even scanning pkgs. hardly anymore.

All his appointee has to do is screw things up through November. trump has made no secret that he's using the USPS for re-election purposes. He is not supposed to use any portion of the government to serve his personal interests.

thats not true just talked to my buddy who is still carrying mail..the only overtime change is you cannot bring someone in on their day off he said he is working 1-2 hours OT every day.....and parcels are still scanned.....if you dont scan them you get written up....most carriers dont like OT they have an overtime desired list,if you sign it you will be working 1-2 hours everyday....
