    Ya true they fd up on that part on ss but most seniors do get their scripts mailed to them and some have reported it. So that is happening as a side effect to what trump is doing to the postal service.

    What about them, those are not handle in those sortation systems that handle ballots, they are sorted through the bulk/parcel mail sort facilities. Different equipment.

    "Around 93 percent of recipients currently receive their payments electronically, but 5 million checks are mailed each month, according to the Treasury. Paper checks cost the government about $4.6 million per month, CNN Money reported. Over the next 10 years, that total cost to taxpayers would add up to $1 billion."

    And that was SEVEN years ago and the postal service went on a BIG campaign to get the remain 7% to go electronic. We seniors DON'T WANT our checks by mail that's how they get stolen and cashed. I just heard Senator Dingle do her best faux heart tug about ALL the Seniors who are CONSTANTLY calling her telling they MUST get their checks by mail or they will DIE. And when the interviewer challenged he she almost called her a liar. It's so typical Democrat, forget the facts go for the emotional.

    It's like Kev12345 with his CANCER DRUGS emotional scare when parcels are not even handled in letter sortation rooms or machines. That's parcel sortation.

    Pelosi was just fine with leaving town without COVID relief for idled workers, but, not being able to screw up the election so badly that she ends up assuming the powers of the presidency when her federalizing scheme leaves us unable to determine who won, that will bring that crazy nut back to town.

    THIS IS PROBABLY WHAT GOT THE BEE SUSPENDED FROM TWITTER: Trump Drives Around Playing Mailbox Baseball In Latest Voter Suppression Scheme.

    “Try and vote for Biden now!” Trump yelled as he knocked a mailbox off its post.​

    Americans love the Working Class. Others in America hate them. Some Presidential Candidates like Hillary openly insulted them, in PA, and PA handed the WH to Trump, is this a GREAT COUNTRY or what?

    The Post Office Conspiracy Is First Class Stupidity.

    $25 billion would pay for 1.667 billion large box priority mail flat rate packages. We have approximately 160 million voters. Pelosi is asking for $156 per ballot. Why the need for this much money?

    ~ The economic shut down in the entire western world was a deliberate act by China - not "caused by a Republican ".

    Only Republicans think about cheating. Why are your States so bad they can't catch cheating? Work on your States election process.

    There's one poster that is Republican that bragged about being able to cheat. You election fraud is a felony?

    The Senate didn't participate in the negotiations. They don't have Republican support. 20 or do R senators say NO more stimulus.

    Huh? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here. Clearly Republicans aren't the only ones that think about fraud.

    Well, we could work on the election process, but foisting a nationwide cheat-by-mail scheme onto the states and the post office mere months before an election is irresponsible.
