I’m hoping the Secret Service know that such a fence can be breached by someone armed only with a Twix

If I remember rightly he pulled a load of funding and put one of his stooges in charge, think they also tried to reduce number of post boxes available but don't think that one worked

Louis DeJoy, Trump stooge and Republican donor made Postmaster General - tried to implement measures to slow down the mail in ballots by ordering the removal of sorting machines etc etc. in a deliberate attempt at suppression. This was reported several months back and it was clear even back then, that delaying, or casting doubt in any way possible,  on mail in ballots was a major part of the plan.

I am starting to get concerned that all this is distracting from the real problems in the USA.   Trump is a clown but this is getting beyond funny.  He will tear his country apart and undermine trust in the process: that's treasonable behaviour surely.

Did you miss the part on how 3 department oversight heads were let go in the last 2 days cause nobody is paying attention? Yeah, so did everyone.

yeah I added the link to my post on slowing post down before you replied... this whole mail vote suppression has been going on for months and you could see Trump's game a mile off, shame his supporters can't :(

The scary thing nobody even saw was that he said he was gonna do this a year ago, but nobody listened.

 

And yeah, my glastonbury shipment shipment suffered for it. It took 2 months for it to arrive after shipping back in July. Guess how long it took the when they added the new shirts, towels and poster in sept and shipped in oct? 5 DAYS.

      Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.

      Superscally Superhuman AC DC inspired charity Run ....Melbourne to Brisbane ...Highway to Help

      By northernangel · Posted

      No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs

      The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.
