This is going too far! Elon needs to stop poisoning people with his harmful products and diseases.

I guess I should have been more specific. The US government should have been forced to sue to shut it down at some point on behalf of American interests. Then all of that should have been public.

OK. I am still having trouble parsing

The new truck was by Dejoy

What does that mean?

It makes me worried about vulnerable people getting bullied into it somehow.

Semantics

The sad fact that we let a propoganda outlet fester for 3 decades without so much as even calling it out.

I guess I just didn’t see how whatever fraction of a percent of gas used by USPS vehicles is really going to impact a global market. Prices drop, people buy bigger cars, other countries slow changes as well, one more easy well gets permanently capped.

China’s EV market has probably been a way bigger shock to oil price than part of a percent of US gas use changing would be.

Can’t be true. Believe it or not, Trump donated his presidential payroll back to federal agencies.

I was SHOCKED when I first learned this. Like one of the weirdest things for him to keep his word on.

My money is on USPS employees, they are a different breed. Also a significant number of them are veterans.

People have this idea that they will just up and dissolve or sell off USPS one day, that won’t happen. It will just slowly fall.

Private companies want access to mailboxes, that’s all this is about.

That simple thing will kill USPS, but they don’t care. It immediately kills the sanctity of mail, because now you don’t know if something was tampered with after it arrives in the box, before you get to check it.

So all congress has to do is allow mailbox access to private companies and refuse to issue any loans or funding and they will be crippled. Slowly having to sell off post office real estate and cutting staff, until the budget is balanced and mail services are abysmal.

Oh and as an added bonus, it will hamper USPS OIG ability to do any mail fraud type investigations. So that means you can bet there will be scams galore… Imagine if you get like 3 different bills from your power company, they all kind of look legit. You call the number and all 3 say you need to pay them.

Well that’s what happens when you create a TV station to gaslight people 24/7 unimpeded for decades.

No, they will just redirect to gas. They are buying something either way, the money has already been committed. Right now it’s 50/50 ev and gas plan, while slowing increasing the EV percentage as they roll out the chargers.

Now it sounds like they want to scrap it all, which is unfortunate considering chargers are in process of being built.

Gas prices are artificially created by OPEC… Although considering Trump is buddies with Russia and others, I could see him wanting an excuse to increase demand so they can sell more.

In case anyone wants to do math, it’s actual MPG is a 17 combination. In real world settings it gets 8 - 10 MPG. From recent hearing EV USPS truck costs 20k more than ICE variant. The new Oshkosh vehicle uses 1.5kWh supposedly.

If anyone was curious the new replacement ICE variant should get 8.5 to 10.5 MPG.

Grumman absolutely knocked it out of the park with that LLV design for it being 4 decades ago.

What do you mean?

Current LLVs are heated, they don’t have AC.

Well if you watched the recent hearing the Republicans were reaming him out because he apparently hasn’t slashed expensives/services enough and it’s still in the red. So he might be getting replaced soon with someone worse.

I mean there are ways to ensure it, the most low tech option is to have a camera rolling, have all the Y/N votes stuffed into the box. Open up the box and count.

Wanted. They didn’t even live in the same house.

Librera is best option
