Postmaster General testifies — TDS moves on to next conspiracy theory
Postmaster General Testifies, Blows Apart the Dem Conspiracy Theory About the USPS
But Trump hasn’t done anything to defund the USPS and they have sufficient funding through 2021, far past the election.
On Friday, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy blew apart the conspiracy theory during his testimony before the Senate. It’s disgusting that he should even have to do that because of Democrats pushing the crazy.
There was the false claim that they were cutting overtime, therefore making the mails take longer. How that would somehow help only Trump is of course silly, but DeJoy shot that down anyway.
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy fact checks Democrat senator: “we never eliminated overtime...since I've been here we've spent $700 million on overtime, overtime runs on a 13% rate before I got here and it runs at a 13% rate now”https://t.co/Ckx6GiWZAi pic.twitter.com/vkyeeBecZM

De Joy came across as honest and while he was polite, it was clear he just thought all of this was so silly.
Democrats came off looking bad. Sen. Ron Johnson called out the Democrats for their games during the hearing.
Thank you @USPS Postmaster General DeJoy for your testimony today. The Democrats have put you in the cross hairs of another hyperbolic false attack perpetrated to scare people and gain political advantage. pic.twitter.com/ZmULg7IlQi

After the USPS Hoax Face Plants, Media Move to a New Conspiracy Theory
Of course, because that their latest conspiratorial narrative has face planted, that means they need a new conspiracy theory to latch onto. Enter QAnon, which is apparently the most preminent threat in America now.
And its here. https://t.co/YparS1M6Fy

In other words, if the media are going to fear monger about mobs causing havoc, perhaps they should focus on what we can all see with our own eyes?

Amazingly, after the USPS conspiracy theory bit the dust, the media have immediately shifted to the vast dangers of QAnon. It's almost like they must always be pushing some irrational bit of fear to target Republicans.

Worse, many on the right take the bait, spending precious time countering a premise none of us should be accepting in the first place. QAnon is a marginal group of crazies, nothing more. They aren’t in the streets burning down courthouses, nor are they shooting people in their cars who don’t follow their commands. Antifa and BLM have shown themselves to be far, far more dangerous and should be treated as such. Don’t fall this bogus narrative pushed by the media.
