I didn't see anything wrong with how they did it.  If you left a forwarding
address, your mail would get forwarded.  If you'd been moved too long and
the forward order expired, IMHO that is on you for not fixing it (and, in
this state, that would mean you also likely didn't change your driver's
license to reflect your new address, which is *illegal*).

Well, it technically would have come from "the state" but, back then, the
Democrats controlled the governorship, both houses of the legislature, and
likely both the AG and SoS offices.

Times have changed here, and fast.

I don't think he'd do that.  I do remember, though, that he claimed in
several messages that "antifa doesn't exist" while claiming in at least one
other that he knew a couple of younger people who were in "a group" that
was involved in a lot of protesting in the NW and he was worried for their
safety.

I do often wonder where he gets his news.  There is stuff that shows up in
the mainstream media that he seems unaware of, and also unwilling to accept
when provided the evidence that it was indeed reported on by multiple
sources.
