Woo cnn crew.

Even for being so poorly made, this guy clearly has an overzealous work ethic.

The USPS has been photographing mail for years and using the data to direct mail. They probably run off zip codes, but one would hope they could use the data to find other packages based on FLORIDS on every return address label.

The idea that anyone not a Republican is a violent, angry mob looking to destroy democracy is basically an article of faith in the cult of Donald now so anything their lying eyes see will be used to prove that.

Personally I'm just waiting for the call for a national crackdown in the name of security. Gonna be a ton of fun to see how far that goes the first time around and how many people in which positions go along with it or resist.

Uh, it pains me to say this, but despite her incompetence and mental instability, where she's on par with Trump, I'm like 100% certain she'd heed the counsel of her advisors, knowing she's out of her depth, and sell it as her own.

This, at the very least, makes her more qualified to be president than what you currently have.

Nope. If she actually got into office, she'd be just like Trump and believe that she is smart enough to deserve it and that everything she does is brilliant.

The good news, and I can't believe I'm giving Perry credit here, is that Perry quickly realized how in over his head he was and has been pretty much hands off for the most part.

Still, I'd rather have someone who's actually competent and fully understands the mission of the DOE, but at least Perry's got enough brain cells to say "Yeah, I don't know what the gently caress. Just tell me where to sign."

The good news is, because the guy sent multiple bombs, it's going to be that much easier for the USPIS to find the dumbshit, hopefully before someone gets hurt.

Also, do not gently caress with Postal Inspectors, they are scary good at their jobs.

I'd like to imagine the first day he gets to the office, sits down, puts his hands behind his head and thinks to himself, "Hehe gonna make all my energy friends so fuckin rich!" and he immediately gets jumped by a bunch of lower level managers, "Sir we need your approval for an RFB on a new design on the nose cone on the new super patriot ICBM" and his eyes just go wide as poo poo.

I would like to think that there will be no further wildly unqualified appointees but then I remembered the most recent opposition from the Democrats about making PR and DC a state is that it would unbalance the political ratio and skew it in favor of the Democrats. They're absolutely the party that would let her get confirmed.
