That is demonstrably false. You're constantly wrong about everything, due to the tinfoil bullshit you think is news.

140 days ago Trump said Republicans would ‘never’ be elected again if it was easier to vote. That is why Trump is slowing down the mail in August.
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/mar/30/trump-republican-party-voting-
reform-coronavirus

6ix, all the poor white trash I know have strong opinions against voting by mail for the same reason Trump does. They worry that too many Democrats will vote. These people with strong opinions also have hyper-inflated self-esteem issues, which doesn't work to their advantage when their imagined white superiority isn't being rewarded in life. Bitterness follows them to the grave. "Why oh why didn't the world treat me better?" should be engraved on their headstones. That's the idea jumping around the branches of their squirrelly brains during life. Why not in death?

Some states anticipate 10 times the normal volume of election mail. Six states and D.C. received warnings that ballots could be delayed for a narrow set of voters. But the Postal Service gave 40 others — including the key battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Florida — more-serious warnings that their long-standing deadlines for requesting, returning or counting ballots were “incongruous” with mail service and that voters who send ballots in close to those deadlines may become disenfranchised.

A few days ago Factcheck.org conceded that Biden had, in fact, been right. The confirmation? Trump’s own statements.

https://naps.org/files/galleries/Notice_of_reduction_of_AFCS,_DBCS,_AF
SM100_and_FSS_Dean_06_23_20-0001.pdf

Background: USPS automation machines sort 3 types of mail: Letter Mail, Flats (manilla envelopes, sealed magazines, other packages greater than 8.5" x 11" but not thicker than an inch), and packages.
Letter mail has slowed since 9-11, and so has Flats. While package mail has grown in volume, and is highly competitive, and sought after by competitors - and USPS has had a habit of processing them at a loss of revenue - for decades.


It mentions 4 types of machines. AFCSs, which are actually AFCS-ISS machines, operated by Mail Handlers and Operate at peak efficiency at about 30,000/hr. They can crank their figures up to 34K, but anything over 30k is purely errors. There have not been any base model AFCSs in USPS in more than 10 years.
AFCS-ISS machines process letter mail only. Flats are culled out in the 2nd culling stage. Packages cannot fit in the machine, and if they enter the machine, are culled at the first point (if the machine didn't jam from them). By 2010 there were about 2,000 of these machines. For instance, in WI there were 8 in Milwaukee, 6 in Madison, 2 each in Green Bay, Eau Claire, LaCrosse, Wausau, Oshkosh, and 1 in Kingsford. Obama reduced those 8 sites down to 2 for the whole state, and those 25 machines down to about 14 remaining, because he eliminated the Mandate of Next Day Delivery.

The other 3 types of machines mentioned are operated by Clerks, members of the APWU.

DBCSs process solely Letter Mail, at a speed up to 43,000 for the older machines, but about 35-38,000 for the "new & better" versions. The older units often don't run at capacity because the Unionized Postal Workers are too lazy to do the work to allow the machines to function properly.
By 2010, there were about 10,000 DBCSs in USPS - not including several thousand DIOSS, a higher-functioning upgrade to the base DBCS (unlikely that any DIOSSs are being thrown out, nor any DBCS-OSSs.)
Milwaukee had 28, GB had 10.

One of these stories mentions that the 671 machines are about 10% of the current stable - meaning Obama has already cut them down to around 6,700 machines before Trump ever populated the White House.

The next 2 machines are humungus, and not very populous due to the smaller footprint desired by USPS facilities. Sites in WI could barely fit one inside, and often not that.
AFSMs and FSS process Flats mail. They are much, much slower than the letter machines. The flats are "injected" into the carousel at a rate of about 4-7 per second. IIRC 120 per minute was the fastest rate we got out if them, and that was cooking (there are mechanical limitations).

That USPS spokesman said that they were reallocating due to demand, and for years now they have been pointing out that Letters and Flats have been in decline, and now they are switching operations over to focus on package mail.

When time, I need to check the annual mail volume from 2001, and 2010, and 2016, and now. They usually report that stuff every year, along with the total number of unique addresses in the U.S.



https://naps.org/files/galleries/Notice_of_reduction_of_AFCS,_DBCS,_AF
SM100_and_FSS_Dean_06_23_20-0001.pdf

This story mentions that 5 out of 20 DBCSs were removed, again in line with current trends, and a minor fraction of the machines that Obamination get rid of. But the largest Union in the world, APWU, needs to whine about something because their overtime is gone, thanks to Obama eliminating the Mandate of Next Day Delivery about 8-10 years ago.

This is merely repeating the same warnings that have been in effect since Obama ended the Next Day Delivery Mandate, however Libtard Election Officials and Clerks have refused to update their information to the public (voter) after not needing to change it since...FOREVER! (before Obama)

This outlet should be castigated, tarred and feathered by the rest of Fake News, for inadvertently including factual statements in their story. Ashamed, they should be.



https://www.statista.com/statistics/320234/mail-volume-of-the-usps/
This site shows total Mail Volume has gone from 213.1 Billion in 2006 to 142.6 billion in 2019. That is including packages.


https://about.usps.com/who-we-are/postal-history/first-class-mail-sinc
e-1926.htm
This site shows that First Class Mail Volumes went from 103,656 Million in 2001 to 77,592 million in 2010, and 54,943 in 2019.
One can see the big shift in type of mail from 1st Class to other types, like package - which is what the USPS has been saying for YEARS.

With Mail Volume at about half of wht it used to be, why should USPS keep the same number of machines? Is removal of only 10% of them really such a horror?
And in 2019 the non-First Class Mail was about 90 billion pieces, where it was 115 billion in 2006.

I ran out of time to wrap up.

In 2019 First Class Volume was over 54 Billion pieces. That is, on average, a little over 1 Billion pieces PER WEEK.
So the Chicken Littles are whining about some 20 million ballots becoming overwhelming to the regular volume of 1 Billion. That is 0.02 Billion of ballots.
Does anybody in their right mind fall for this nonsense? Or do you listen to Fake Tapper with bated breath?


The Unions are claiming DeJoy was a competitor. But I see reporting that he was actually a CONTRACTOR with USPS. This means a collaborator, working in concert.
A Contractor is not a Competitor of USPS - but it is ass competitor of the UNIONIZED POSTAL "WORKERS" - which is the true revelation.
