The Postmaster General says USPS could run out of money as early as 2027, and possibly even this year.

That puts the entire postal system on unstable financial footing much sooner than expected.

I'm usually a big supporter of #USPS. They have a new commercial touting their ability to get your packages processed & delivered fast: "pump up the volume" At the same time, we had important medical docs sent in JANUARY, processed dated FEBRUARY, & delivered in MARCH. Y'all are not volume ready...

What’s going on with #USPS in Ellenton, FL? Blocking traffic and trying to stifle free speech and peaceful assembly?

But, FWIW, the USPS is self funded and doesn’t spend tax dollars.

I once worked at a USPS remote encoding center in Gary processing unreadable addresses one Christmas season as a temp in the 1990s.

The old building is now a charter school across the street from a senior midrise building.

The shift started in the evening with incoming mail then ended when […]

Wall Street has a plan to carve up the postal service while the Trump administration holds the door open.
Trump has proposed merging the #USPS with the Commerce Department to reduce losses, with #Lutnick aiming to overhaul the agency’s financial management.

Just a reminder to people who like usps and sending letters the 8% charge is for parcels not stamps. sending letters is still a good way to support a constitutional institution that needs to survive this administration!

You don't have to abolish the Post Office today to destroy it. You just have to install the right people remove the right protections manufacture enough financial pressure and then wait for someone to present privatization as the only rescue available

#saveusps #postoffice #savethepostoffice #usps

Is the #USPS affected by the debacle with #DHS?
Or is this just their general incompetence?

This is what the regime is doing to #USPS right now. Wreck it so they can privatize it and reap the benefits.

February 2026, the #SupremeCourt rules that #USPS has immunity from lawsuits for INTENTIONAL nondelivery of mail (not just accidental or negligent mishandling) under the FTCA "postal exception".

Think about what this means for #ELECTION mail.

Thank you so much for talking about the beloved #USPS and #TACOs and #MAGA #ReThugliKKKans attempt to bankrupt it in order to privatize and benefit their cronies—ultimately to end voting, especially for blue cities, counties, states.

This is a domestic tariff.

Stop. Go back up and think about that for a moment.

AND as of February 2026 they can intentionally not deliver your mail. This scotus ruling slipped by the so-called BIG accts cuz all they do is regurgitate main stream media. Trump knows the save act wont pass but he's pushing it to keep this little piece of information quiet

MyMove Is the US Government’s Shittiest Website — WIRED For more than 30 years, the US Postal Service has sent people who need to change their addresses to MyMove. Experts say the site uses dark patterns to trap visitors in an online purgatory of “deals.”

Private carriers explicitly do not offer it It only exists because of a legal obligation requiring the Post Office to provide it and that obligation only survives as long as the Post Office survives
