Thank fuck tho, it will keep electric waste down, and I feel we are starting to figure out you don't need to spec your game to the newest graphics card for it to be fun.

Their margins are very high on some items compared to the ingredients, their costs are more dominated by other factors like wages and the costs for the location.

What the hell is a debate supposed to be if not partisan? It's about the parties running is it not?

Not really, in most countries I lived in, there have been more heads of state murdered than one can remember, while something like Sandy Hook would have a national day of remembrance.

I looked it up in the meantime, apparently it's standard Republican Senate fuckery if someone else is reading this.

The Postmaster General gets elected by the nine-member Board of Governors, that the President selects and the Senate confirms the members of. Obama nominated at least five people, the Senate confirmed none of them, and since terms were for seven years, the Board lost quorum, and delegated its powers to a Temporary Emergency Committee.

After Trump got elected, he nominated and the Senate confirmed eight people over his term. This gave the board a 5 member Republican majority, the legal maximum, but the Dem minority was also somewhat made up of Trump appointees.

Biden so far could appoint two people with Senate confirmation. Replacing DeJoy needs five.

It's a historic railroad bridge that has not been used for a while, steel construction, and it has been taken apart and put together many times before, sometimes for maintenance. IIRC the current mayor promised the people not to do it again, and then came Bezos, and then they didn't take it apart, they installed the yacht's masts downstream instead.

This is the bridge in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Hef

The Trump/Biden Post Office under DeJoy

That's the claim being made.

Could Biden have ousted DeJoy by now? Honest question, I really don't know the specifics.
