Simple solution - when Harris wins the election President Biden should instruct the Justice department to indict the 6 conservative members of the Supreme Court on suspicion of treason. They should be held in custody until the election has been duly certified and Harris sworn in, then released.

Good point Bryan. SCOTUS has given Biden the power that he needs to save this country, if only he and his advisors had the balls and smarts. They apparently have neither, because he has allowed the fascists to retain control of the USPS, and he appointed a fox to guard the henhouse (Garland), and he revoked the executive order that Trump used to embed his humpers into DOJ, DOD, NHC, CBP, NSA, thus crippling himself and depriving himself of the ability to reverse the damage, by getting rid of Trump humpers and installing small d democrats, and that is not the only failure of bipartisan Joe
Do UPS Teamsters compete with the US post office for workers, salaries and benefits? Would that have something to do with Harris not being endorsed by the Teamsters although the locals are allowed to endorse Harris? I'm trying to understand?
USPS employees belong to the Postal Workers Union and are not in competion with the teamsters.
The problem with the teamsters is that they spend their days on the road,listening to the radio, and the only radio other than music and sports is right wing hate radio. They are in essence mobile Fox viewers.
Yes Daniel I know that FED X and UPS and DHL among other carriers are in direct competition with the USPS, and that the goal of people like DeJoy, the Chamber of Commerce and Wall Street is to privatize the USPS, at present it is, as is the Red Cross, a private non profit.
But the question was "is the teamsters union in competition with postal workers"(union) And the answer is no.
Hi Gloria! My opinion regarding why the national teamsters union did not endorse Harris is it's due to 2 things: 1) many of the union members are voting their racial prejudice (i.e. they are pro-Trump) over their economic interests (Harris is obviously more pro-worker), and 2) I think the union president (O'Brien) has personal interests/preferences for Trump to win (speculation, I have no specific knowledge on this point).
I remember being concerned when Biden stepped into the White House that he would get rid of all Trump loyalists clogging up his agencies, and never hearing any news that he was doing so,
When Biden appointed Merrick Garland as AG, I knew then we were in deep shit.
Garland was vetted to Obama by Orrin Hatch R-UT. Hatch was the most radical right Senator in the Senate at that time., he also had worked for the Federalist society as a moderator. That told me all I needed to know.
Biden joined the Senate when the Senate Democrats were controlled by Dixiecrats, racists, and his mentors were racists. Senators were friends, they had dinner together, attended cocktail parties together. Comity and compromise were the unofficial rule.
Biden was reared politically, as a compromiser, bipartisan, and was not the man for the times, but it is in his blood, still.
And it is in the blood of the Democratic party leadership, maybe now they have had a transfusion and the film wiped off their eyes, but not when Obama was elected, not when Biden took office.
Senators make piss poor presidents, they are politicians who were raised to legislate and compromise. The best President we ever had, FDR, was a governor, and he knew how to govern and so he did.
Obama was not even a practiced senator, with only two years in the Job and nothing to his credit. He was a neophyte inside the beltway, he had no connections, he was prey, and jumped on by predators like Larry Summers and Rahm Emanuel, who "guided" him, they even "suggest" official advisors like national security advisors, economic advisors, etc.
Same is true for Trump, we know who Steven Miller is now, a racist exenophobic Jew, but Trump never heard of him, until he was told to appoint him as an advisor.
Trump didn't know any of the people he appointed as advisors and cabinet, there is a grise eminence behind the throne.
Basically the president, in most cases, is a figure head. The only power he has is to execute laws passed by congress, and he hires a staff, called the cabinet, which is supposedly approved by the Senate to do just that.
White House advisors are a work around, as is acting cabinet members, which Trump employed to full effect.
When Trump took office he was naive as to the powers that he had, and what he could do. The crap and subterfuges he has come up with are not his idea, he is not his own man, he is a carnival barker, a conman, the "Music man", a malignant narcissist, a malleable tool,and that tool is being used today by the likes of Elon Musk, and for J D Bowman Vance, Peter Thiel., but they aren't the only hands on the tool. There are other hands like Leonard Leo, and Kevin Roberts.
There is not one man behind the curtain, or one hand up the ass of a sock puppet, but many men and many hands.

I'm sorry, but companies like Fed X, UPS, and many other carriers are in direct competition with the post office. Some are unionized.
We had a number of their cases under the Surface Transportation Assistance whistleblower Act. Gino Scalia was one of their lawyers.
