5. There's so many things that we have to fix that tRump & Co. destroyed.

We have to wait 74 days until inauguration. They're working on cabinet picks and will release a statement on Monday about the 12 person Covid19 taskforce.


They're both working diligently already. Have patience, Biff. One day at a time, one step at a time.

I know it won't ever be paid, but they should have to pay for the destruction that they caused.

13. End the ridiculous retirement mandate.

Stop forcing them to fund their retirements 75 years in advance. That should solve most of their financial issues. if not all of them. It goes without saying that DeJoy needs to go.

Was 75, but now 50 years.
Still ridiculous! We agree on that completely.
One thing I'll add; the whole board of governors needs to be jettisoned. They went along with the dumbest business strategy ever. And helped DumbJoy to try to steal an election.

If there's a means of co-opting his fortune to aid in repairing the damage he did, do so.

None of our progress can be maintained without securing our voting rights and ditching the electoral college. Also, nobody should have to stand in line for 8 hours just to vote.

ready to go for a while for quite some time.

It fixes the pension situation. https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/2382

My wife is in management at USPS. She's always said that the USPS only has problems when Republicans get involved.
She's actually a rather apolitical person. She just knows what she sees and deals with.
