The goal in privatizing the USPS is to make sending regular mail unaffordable to the point most communication occurs online, not in real life.

While the public recognizes mail is a service to the public that is not supposed to be for profiteering, the cheeto admin doesn't care that the costs of online services to the poor & elderly are far in excess of sending & receiving mail.

They just want to skim off as much as they can from people.

Parcels make up over 40% of USPS revenues, but account for just 6% of what the agency actually sends The Postmaster General is stepping away as the (mostly) mail service tries to work out where it stands in 2025. Millie Giles, 3/26/25 As mail’s fallen out of favor — the volume of mail handled by the service has almost halved since 2008 — USPS has become more dependent on its lucrative package business. Indeed, packages accounted for over 40% of its revenue last year, despite making up only 6% of total volumes. Trying to gain ground in the package space by competing with big names like UPSUPS $111.45 (-0.01%), FedExFDX $243.92 (0.11%), and AmazonAMZN $201.31 (0.11%), the latter of which delivered over 9 billion parcels the same or next day alone last year, was always going to be tricky for USPS to deliver. Now, though, it’ll be someone else’s problem.

“Exclusive: #DeJoy has resigned from his role as Postmaster General of the #USPS, according to a source familiar with the matter. On Monday, he told the USPS Board of Governors that it would be his last day on the job. He named Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino to take over until the Board names a permanent replacement”

Well, that was my eleventh protest but my first #TeslaTakedown! Everything was completely peaceful, but the police had put yellow tape around the #Tesla dealership lol. Nobody crossed it-- we just stood on the sidewalks on all four street corners letting everybody know how we feel about #Musk.

Boy did a LOT of people in traffic agree with us! The honking was absolutely nuts. One US mail truck really leaned on the horn (from an 18 wheeler) and I realized the driver probably saw my #USPS ...

"During the call, Rep. Crockett said her one birthday wish is to see Musk’s company crumble.

“'On March 29 it’s my birthday,' she said. 'All I want to see happen on my birthday is for Elon to be taken down.'"

Y'all hear that? It's her birthday coming up and we owe her a #TESLATAKEDOWN!

I will be at one of those events tomorrow, rocking the "Hands Off Our Public Postal Service" sign they gave me at the #USPS protest! Happy birthday, Congresswoman! 🎂

Employees brace for #Trump to transfer or privatize the #USPS, which they say will slash jobs & boost prices & shut down post offices.

USPS WKRs advocates held a day of action Thurs in >150 cities as they brace for the Trump admin to launch an “illegal hostile takeover."

Trump’s officials are weighing plans to transfer USPS to the Dept of COM, stripping it of its independence. He/allies have signaled they're willing to privatize USPS.

Yesterday was the Postal Worker Union's National Day of Action, and I attended a protest myself. I now have an APWU "Hands off our public postal service!" sign to take to Tesla Takedown protests.

Here's what was going on around the country, since it's mostly on local news:

actionnetwork.orgStop Trump's Illegal USPS Takeover Donald Trump is attempting an illegal takeover of the United States Postal Service by firing the entire Postal Board of Governors and placing the USPS directly under the control of billionaire Trump donor Howard Lutnick, recently sworn in as Secretary of Commerce. Trump described it as a “type of merger.” But here’s the truth, the Postal Service is not a private business and it doesn’t belong to Trump or the White House, it belongs to the American people. This move is unconstitutional and blatantly illegal. In 1970, Congress passed the Postal Reorganization Act, explicitly removing the Postal Service from presidential control. They established the USPS as an independent, self-funded public agency. Trump's executive order would blatantly violate the law and undermine the separation of powers essential to our democracy. The Postal Board of Governors must reject this unlawful attempt by refusing Trump's firing order, and stay on the job to fight back. If Trump is successful, postal workers, seniors, and rural Americans will bear the brunt of the devastating consequences. Over 640,000 dedicated postal employees, including 73,000 veterans, will see their livelihoods jeopardized. Rural communities risk losing guaranteed delivery of medication, Social Security checks, ballots, and other essential mail. Trump's illegal plan would pave the way for a possible privatization of our public postal system by chopping up USPS, selling off its parts, and putting profit margins over public service. This isn't the first time we've faced such a threat. We've stopped Trump before, from privatization efforts in 2018 to attempted sabotage before the 2020 elections. Together with our diverse coalition of labor unions, veterans, voting rights advocates, civil rights groups, and grassroots activists across the nation, we've protected our Postal Service and we can and will do it again. Now we must stop Trump's unconstitutional power grab and keep the Postal Service in public hands, where it belongs. Click ‘START WRITING’ to sign and send a direct message to the Postal Board of Governors to refuse Trump's illegal order, stand strong, stay on the job, and save the Post Office from Donald Trump.
