One of the few things the federal government is supposed to do and they still can’t do it properly.

Hilarious. I ordered a small product from the LA area to SC and it was shipped on 2/25, I still haven’t received it. I tracked it…….it has been to Memphis five times, Charleston three times, Shreveport two times, Jackson MS three times. Last time I I checked it was back in Charleston. I reported it and was told the package is “looping”.

Well, yes and no.....from AI 👇

“the United States Postal Service (USPS) is a federal entity, but it operates as a quasi-governmental, independent agency. Established in 1970, it is part of the executive branch but is designed to operate similarly to a private business, funding its operations through postage and services rather than tax dollars.Key details about the USPS as of May 2026:Structure: It is an independent establishment of the executive branch.Funding: The USPS is largely self-funded, using revenue from sales to pay for operations, not taxpayer funds.”

I’ve never understood the handwringing over the post office P and L. It’s a legitimate Constitutional function. Run it as efficiently as possible and keep it funded.
