NEW â Iran had already presented a 10-point plan. Then Trump wakes up today and threatens to blow up Iran's "whole civilization" if they don't bend. And then, just an hour before his deadline, he announces a ceasefire, citing Iran's "workable" 10-point plan.

"History will judge-" let me stop you right fucking there, history doesn't do fucking shit, I'm a historian, let's be clear here: elected officials need to do their fucking jobs, right now, before it happens, or future historians will judge THEM. Everyone knows and knew who Trump was.

the fundamental reason some democrats are doing this is because it's easier to say "the federal government is screwing you" than it is to say "corporations are screwing you" when you've gotta go and beg those corporations for campaign $$$$ the next day.

I'm not sure that this holds together, because it essentially presents as an alternative that the United States is consistently acting contrary to its national interest for inexplicable reasons (almost always explained by "the Israel lobby.")

Leaving aside the blow this would be to our democracy & civil society, the collapse of USPS would likely destroy the US economy & US businesses. No regular business can afford to double their shipping expenditures by using a private service. It wonât happen. Theyâll all just go out of business.

Worth note: after SOB squashed an endorsement of Harris at the international, Teamsters JCs and locals representing an overwhelming majority of membership endorsed within days. The source of the rot is pretty obvious. Great deep dive in the first post of this thread. Highly recommend.

The Teamsters PAC has also given a fair amount of money to Mullin, so I guess we know who won that exchange.
