Waiting for Nancy Pelosi to say this is racist.

“There go the Bible deliveries.”

It’s incredible how much we’ve outsourced.

Let’s see if I have this straight:

Letters and flats from China and Hong Kong are okay, but inbound parcels will not be accepted.

I think Pelosi has gone into hiding…..or she’s hitting the bottle hard.
Kamala has disappeared too.

There is some kind of a deal in the USPS so that it costs less to fly a small package from China to the US than it does to fly a package from one place in the US to another. Perhaps Trump is eliminating that.

Many policies were put in place when China really was an impoverished country. It no longer is impoverished, to say the least.

I currently work in Hong Kong and so far there are no notices from either the local post office or government about this.

Yes. Bible publishers use China to publish Bibles. Some are backing away from that and have gone to India instead. If you own Bibles check the publisher.

The Chinese regime does not send Bibles to America, printers print them, not the commies. Name them. I will refuse to buy their product,
