The Postmaster General has now been accused, on the record, of the precise crime I questioned him about two weeks ago. There is federal legal exposure, and the state of North Carolina should not hesitate to open its own investigation.

Make us proud of you, James...

Sorry for the rant, please return to your pleasure cruise.

In a bit of a funk tonight.

9. I am so with you on this! We need serious comprehensive change on a whole host of issues

that trump's right wing republican party has brought to light that is wrong in our government and legal system.

10. Indeed.

I hope we can start January 21st, at the latest.
