Why does Louis DeJoy still have a fucking job at the Postal Service. WTF.

@StillIRise1963 POTUS can’t fire him. It’s run by a board. I don’t remember what Biden installed there.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 Biden's picks got confirmed last year; they should have fired DeJoy by now but he pivoted to suckle the new teat.https://federalnewsnetwork.com/people/2022/05/usps-board-is-now-mostly-biden-picks-following-latest-senate-confirmations/https://www.politico.com/news/2023/08/13/how-louis-dejoy-went-from-democratic-nightmare-fuel-to-biden-clean-energy-player-00110945Joe still needs to get rid of the bastard. Anyone can electrify the fleet; get someone who can electrify the workers.

@revphil @LinuxAndYarn @GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 This describes the process precisely. It's the method the GQP is using at all levels of government. The last step, not depicted here, is privatization.

@The_Icarian @revphil @GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 It's there; it's the biggest domino, the one that will fall on the guy pushing the first one.

@The_Icarian @revphil @GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 It's also a similar process to the "Red Caesar" fantasy the right wing is promoting, but instead of privatization being the last domino it's imposition of a dictator.https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/red-caesar-right-american-dictatorship-20231005.html

@LinuxAndYarn @The_Icarian @revphil @GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 Don't they remember what happened to Caesar? Guess not.

@piquant00 @The_Icarian @revphil @GhostOnTheHalfShell @StillIRise1963 Julius got his ass killed but paved the way for dozens more.To me and billions of others, Trump is a prick.To Murdoch and other billionaires, he's a tool.

@LinuxAndYarn @piquant00 @The_Icarian @revphil @StillIRise1963 Sulla, Julius' immediate predecessor, got the ball rolling. Caesar pushed it further and set Rome on the path to monarchal rule once more with his adopted heir, Augustus, the first true emperor after the republic.Musk and his buddies are constantly spewing shit about how we need a Sulla to 'fix' things. Things which everyone else would say set Rome on its final phase.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @LinuxAndYarn @piquant00 @The_Icarian @revphil @StillIRise1963 And that's what killed it. I understand these people want this stuff because they think they will be on top (somehow) but point still stands as to they didn't pay attention in history class.Also asshat should be gone...
