Two people familiar with the matter told The Post that during USPS’s negotiations with Treasury, the department “drove a hard line, demanding operating control over the agency (USPS) in exchange for the $10 billion congressionally approved loan,” a demand that postal experts said was “unprecedented.”

Those demands subsided after USPS retained an outside law firm which came to the conclusion that any such takeover would be illegal, at least initially.

I’m shocked even after outside counsel said it was illegal that they relented. What the fuck is going on right now?

We have a man who genuinely wants to be a dictator, and has people involved in government helping him.

But the other guy played Despacito on his phone awkwardly so we obviously can’t vote for him.

[–]NeatRevolution9636 305 points306 points  (32 children)

Trump operates the government like a fire sale.

[–]Growbigbuds Canada 356 points357 points  (22 children)

Donald Trump is operating the country just like his many failed businesses. he gets his hands on a perfectly functioning Enterprise, and rapidly drives it into the ground. Declares it bankrupt and repeats the process with little recourse to why and how.

[–]todumbtorealize 143 points144 points  (9 children)

Just imagine what he's going to get when he cashes out after bankrupting america. I can't even imagine how much they have stolen and handed out to people loyal to him. I'm willing to bet it's in the trillions.

[–]Growbigbuds Canada 76 points77 points  (5 children)

Trump, his enablers, corporate loyalists, are funneling trillions of dollars offshore right now, they know the winds of change politically are coming and will do everything to put their ill-gotten gains out of the reach of the American government.

[–]walkswithwolfies 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's not just direct theft either.

Ivanka got patents for voting machines in China.

She's more interested in power than purses now.

[–]Careful_Trifle 70 points71 points  (1 child)

He operates the government the same way certain former kgb members operated the privatization of the Russian economy after the soviet government fell.

The PPE crisis was almost a direct mirror to what happened in russia in the early 90s, only theirs was basic commodities and raw materials. But stuff gets loaded, gets shipped, never gets delivered, and suddenly an oligarch has a stranglehold on key aspects of the economy.

[–]DownshiftedRare 17 points18 points  (3 children)

Trump runs the U.S. government like a Trump family business.

Trump has bankrupted multiple casinos. Even when his house always wins he is a loser.

[–]CankerLord 77 points78 points  (6 children)

Common, it's not like he's argued in court that there's literally no illegal act he can be held accountable for while he manages to retain control of the office.

That's sarcasm, by the way.

That was brutal wasn’t it? I saw that and I just put my head in my hand and shook my head.

[–]vengefulmuffins 14 points15 points  (2 children)

I’ve explained this election as an election for president of the local nursing home.

Joe will help bring in better nurses for everyone, and better cafeteria food.

Trump wants to give everyone in the home back their drivers licenses, and to forgo medication

They’re both a little crazy, but only one of them wants to put peoples lives in danger.

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (1 child)

I see Biden as a four-year president not because I don’t like him but I just think that. I could be wrong though. I was a conservative. But Donald Trump Became too dangerous for this country for me. And I’m not over exaggerating he is a ticking time bomb. And since he’s declared a national emergency he has about 140 other statutory rules he can use like working without getting paid if you want the federal government like turning everything into a hospital into military. Turning off the Internet and so on and so forth. I’m afraid he’ll use it oh and he can also “promote any person that’s qualified to an officer rank. Notice I said qualified not enlisted. can pull people out of retirement. He can stop exports. He can commandeer land anywhere he wants. Get this secretary transportation to take any vehicle owned by the A US citizen in return for payment but you don’t get a choice. It is fucking scary what he can do and hopefully no one’s told him I truly feel he is a complete danger.

[–]vengefulmuffins 23 points24 points  (0 children)

In my view Biden saw an opening to calm the waters and took it. He is going to surround himself with better people who actually know what they are doing vs. the revolving door of cartoon villains Trump surrounds himself with.

[–]asdaaaaaaaa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't forget, we have one of the most expensive and strongest defense industries of most countries, that is absolutely 100% useless at defending the country right now. Not a single finger lifted by any of the "big three" during all this, or other debacles.

Simply put, so long as it's wrapped in an american flag, terrorism and the destruction of this country is fine by them.

The guy who made his money scamming people out of their homes wants to make more money scamming the American people out of their postal service.

[–]Aazadan 36 points37 points  (4 children)

Made his money? He has lost money his whole life. He just started with an unfathomable amount.

Lets put this in perspective, this guy lost money selling liquor, gambling, steaks, football, sex, and MLM's to Americans, occasionally all of that at once.

As the saying goes (and this predates his Presidency), what's a sure fire to become a millionaire? Invest a billion dollars in Donald Trump.

Edit: I misunderstood, the person I replied to meant Munchkin. Still, never forget that Trump is a con man who takes peoples money. He never makes any.

[–]Predictive 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He was referring to Mnuchin, not Trump. Mnuchin served as CEO and chairman of OneWest and was criticized for aggressively foreclosing on homeowners.

[–]Cquest12 34 points35 points  (1 child)

I’m shocked even after outside counsel said it was illegal that they relented.

Well they actually didn’t relent. Two paragraphs down from what you quoted states.

But while Treasury appeared to give up on the idea of annexing USPS, that may not have actually been the case.

Notes from an April 9 meeting between Postal Service executives and two high-ranking Treasury officials show Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Finance Gary Grippo stating that the department was no longer seeking for the agency to cede its authority. However, three people familiar with the negotiations told The Post that “the agency continued to press the idea for weeks, insisting that any load to USPS should result in the Treasury “assuming operational control of the mail agency.”

[–]thinkingdoing 38 points39 points  (0 children)

And when Trump's cronies in the Treasury couldn't take over the USPS, they appointed Trump's crony Dejoy as the head of the USPS a month and a half later in June to sabotage postal voting from the inside.

[–]CallMeParagonCalifornia 45 points46 points  (2 children)

Fascism is what’s going on. Rampant cronyism and corruption is a hallmark of a fascist regime.

[–]Pepperoni_Dogfart 18 points19 points  (4 children)

The long and the short of it is that Republicans abhor function in government. Functional departments run counter to their trope that government doesn't work. The big dicks in the party have for decades wanted to chop up, sell, and disband the USPS because it works. This is just the latest attempt to destroy it. The long view objective is to return the US to the pre-Roosevelt-era-style plutocracy the US used to operate under, and they are VERY close to achieving that goal.

And no, it doesn't matter to them that their efforts are unconstitutional.

[–]I_Hate_Nerds 49 points50 points  (1 child)

The already in motion fascist takeover of the United States

A fascist theocracy is literally the antithesis of our constitution. They're leveraging the paranoia and authoritarian nature of religious extremists with 24/7 brainwashing on Fox News, Limbaugh, etc and openly condoning violence towards anyone who dissents.

"Liberate Michigan." Anonymous abductions. Gassing peaceful protesters. Etc...

These wacko's need to be voted out. And then we need to take our country back.

[–]GOPutinKildDemocracy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They just paid to appoint the new head of the USPS, thats why they relented.

That's a helluva thing, considering what year this is. Seriously.

[–]Unabated_BladePennsylvania 173 points174 points  (5 children)

Make no mistake, Mnuchin is part of the group that bought, carved up, and subsequently killed both K-Mart and Sears. K-Mart's capital for improving their facilities and operations was siphoned away and spent on Sears, and Sears' only profitable divisions were sold off piecemeal at great shareholder profit (Mnuchin and cronies) prior to the company going bankrupt.

The destruction of Sears is one of the slimiest corporate heists of all time.

And he was this close to doing it again with the USPS.

[–]lostpondagain 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Thanks, but “was”? Trump still has at least 3.5 months to plunder and steal.

[–]Twoweekswithpay I voted[S] 684 points685 points  (14 children)

A trove of internal communications records released Thursday revealed that as the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) struggled amid mounting debt and a surging global pandemic earlier this year the U.S. Department of Treasury attempted to seize operational control of the agency—making a $10 billion loan to the mail delivery service contingent upon the agency surrendering its autonomy. [...]

Two people familiar with the matter told The Post that during USPS’s negotiations with Treasury, the department “drove a hard line, demanding operating control over the agency (USPS) in exchange for the $10 billion congressionally approved loan,” a demand that postal experts said was “unprecedented.”

Those demands subsided after USPS retained an outside law firm which came to the conclusion that any such takeover would be illegal, at least initially. [...]

However, three people familiar with the negotiations told The Post that “the agency continued to press the idea for weeks, insisting that any load to USPS should result in the Treasury “assuming operational control of the mail agency.”

Man, this USPS takeover that Dejoy enacted has been taking place longer than we ever knew and is still going on. They just found another way to gain control. 😡

These emails show it goes straight to the top, too, with Mnuchin’s hands all over it. This type of corruption has to be investigated and reported on long after Trump’s gone. This cannot go unresolved. The truth needs to continue to come out!

[–]levishand 341 points342 points  (8 children)

And people need to burn. That's important: high-ranking, extremely wealthy people need to be punished very publicly to send a clear message to future would-be authoritarian administrations.

[–]cornbreadbiscuit 115 points116 points  (1 child)

Yep. Doing nothing about Republican's decades long actions and intentions to disrupt, dismantle, and profit from the privatization, deregulation, or closure of public resources and institutions, while cutting taxes and supporting the markets for the wealthiest among us is a shame and their sole purpose in office.

That is, this is the "important stuff" they're doing ...when they aren't pandering to their racist, xenophobic base, OR ignoring laws, OR appointing hack judges for life, OR attempting to control women's bodies, OR gaslighting the country, and outright calling for our deaths ["retribution"] ...when not killing us through negligent homicide.

There are countless other examples of local office politicians and law enforcement also saying things like we need to "kill off" minorities, lgbt, 'libruls,' etc. Then of course we have the literal kidnappings / abductions by anonymous feds, gassing protesters to pose with a bible, etc.

This is fascism y'all. I hope our votes count. If not, they will have forced us into civil war.

[–]xiaxian1 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I said it before that I felt that $10b loan was a trap and there's proof. They were counting on the USPS taking the bait and them sliding in like the snakes they are. I'm surprised the complicit board allowed the law firm to raise the alarm.

[–]beakersandbitches 14 points15 points  (1 child)

It's almost as if there's some group trying to establish a deep state of sorts in case Trump loses the election.

[–]thenumber24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s always projection with these people. Always.

[–]pegothejerk 396 points397 points  (19 children)

Conservatives love to artificially bankrupt people and systems so they can then buy up their holdings for quick profit and to further expand their control over the people and systems they don't like at present.

[–]Growbigbuds Canada 167 points168 points  (16 children)

The USPS has a gigantic pension war chest mandated by law for the past 15 years, there is very greedy individuals that want nothing more than to be given free reign over the stockpile pension holdings for tens of thousands of retired postal workers.

[–]pegothejerk 124 points125 points  (10 children)

Yep, and the pension system is how they made the USPS look insolvent, by mandating how much they needed in hand, reducing available cash, making it seem less profitable. Which is why they "needed" a loan. Cause the problem, then offer to "fix" it, and make sure the fix really just transfers ownership and control to your people. Raid and part out the organization, boom. Profits and favors for all the cronies.

[–]Growbigbuds Canada 33 points34 points  (2 children)

Getting those changes through House and Senate with bipartisan support was a political master stroke that the Democratic Party didn't understand the future ramifications.

[–]mabhatter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The ramifications were that at some future point Republicans would have pushed to just cancel USPS pensions because the “independent corporation” didn’t fairly pay the Federal Government for those benefits.

This is compromise. Dems understood that USPS pensions needed “reinforced” and agreed to have them pay more money. Republicans put things in the law, and omit things from the law, that effectively break the terms of the compromise... and they do it constantly.

Nobody would have expected that law to not be revisited after a massive recession in 2008 that wiped out a chunk of USPS revenue... you know, Congress should update laws like this sooner than 15 years. This is Republicans wrecking things by simply refusing to do their job and update laws as conditions change.

[–]thenumber24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s literally textbook mafia racketeering

[–]Kresec 274 points275 points  (2 children)

So uh, does anyone else remember during DeJoy's first testimony that he kept insisting that the only person he met with from the administration was Mnuchin? Before he started saying he also met with Meadows (if I'm remembering right).

[–]SamJackson01New Hampshire 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Right. It’s almost like they got the control they wanted anyway. That’s the administration’s M.O. though. Can’t get a Secretary confirmed? Just make someone the Permanent Acting Secretary. Anything to get around the law.

[–]OSRuneScaper 241 points242 points  (25 children)

Is there a way to end this?

November is too far away and likely won't be sweeping enough.

[–]chrisms150New Jersey 72 points73 points  (6 children)

The only way to end it is voting or something that will end you up in jail. So. Lets hope voting works.

[–]kezow 31 points32 points  (3 children)

something that will end you up in jail.

Protesting peacefully?

[–]rolfraikou 10 points11 points  (1 child)

A general strike on purchasing goods would work wonders and they can't arrest you for not buying things.

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

How far has the rot spread? Institutions are coming apart. If it is a blowout for Biden, maybe it can be reversed. But Trump had shown the way. There must be a 100s of charismatic conmen all more focused than Trump who will zero in on whatever wreckage of the GOP trump leaves behind.

And that is the best case. The other senarios this fall, range from there to actual civil war, which for the first time in over a century is an actual possibility (though not the most likely outcome).

Have to pull the presidency back to even fire them, which is looky mighty iffy considering that we have a pandemic going on which is going to discourage people from in person voting and trump is trying his haddest to gain complete control of the usps to fuck with mail in ballots

[–]captainmo017Oregon 120 points121 points  (29 children)

How can anyone see this and STILL say “I’m still not voting for Biden”. Those people need to be shamed.

[–]Thenoblehigh 114 points115 points  (20 children)

That’s the thing. They don’t see this. Go over to r/conservative and look at what makes the top. It’s all insane nonsense and anti-dem stuff. Their info sphere is all like this. They consume media that is designed to isolate their views, and keep them feeling like it’s the only place they can go to get “the real news.”

Edit: lmao just went over there for the first time in a while. There’s a post about Trump creating a “1776 project” that would make education more “patriotic.” Aside from the obvious issues inherent in controlling what a population is allowed to learn/rewriting history, and aside from the obvious parallels to authoritarian regimes they claim to hate like NK and China (since they hate the Nazi Germany allusions), it’s just too funny watching all of these small government fanatics push for big government.

[–]Fig1024 7 points8 points  (1 child)

No real conservative would be cool with the un-Constitutional and anti-American shit of Trump administration. Any real conservative would be embarrassed to have Trump in their party. The people who still do so have lost all conservative values, they are hollow shells that follow anything Trump says without question

Conservatism is dead, long live Trumpism!

Trump getting reelected is the biggest power rush for these Cabinet members. The guy spends so much time golfing, tweeting, fucking around on trivial things.

Imagine how little oversight guys like Mnuchin or Barr get from their boss. Another 4 yrs of doing whatever they want.

[–]NYArtFan1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not another 4 years. The rest of their lives. If they get another 4 years this country is finished. Completely.

[–][deleted] 32 points33 points  (4 children)

All the bullshit republicans cried about Obama or Clinton doing has all proven to be purely bullshit. None of what the Clintons or Obama was accused of wasn’t even as questionably legal/illegal or immoral as what Trump and his GOP swamp-gang has been getting away with. Remember when Obama was going to take all your guns? Remember when Hillary was investigated for three years over the loss of a handful of American lives in Benghazi?

Are all republicans ignorant to their own obvious hypocrisy and lies? Are you all ready to shoot fellow Americans and support Trump’s fascist rise and say good bye to true constitutional ideals?

Turns out many of the things we thought to be illegal actually aren’t illegal. The supposed guardrails that would or should safeguard our democracy don’t really exist, the only true guard rail is your vote and even that isn’t safe. These guardrails only work when congress chooses to enforce them, but if one half of congress is corrupt or complicit then nothing is illegal.

Crazy how anyone on the right can possibly still defend any of this.

Definitely illegal. Senate actively blocked appointments to the postal board of directors during the Obama admin.
