Trump is going to have an aneurysm....he hated him....and he probably wants his own stamp.

Got the stamp, because that’s all our system is capable of accomplishing anymore. The John Lewis Voting Rights Act failed. Good work, everyone?

inb4 Trump announces Freedom Post, funded mostly with donations, with 40% of them being from Elon Musk.
All so he can design his own stamps that will be illegitimate but still used by his cultist postal workers

I don't think John Lewis would agree with the despairing tone of this post. If something fails, what do you do? You get back out there and get in trouble, good trouble, to make it happen. You believe in change, rather than sitting on your hands like the white moderates Dr. King wrote about in his letter from an Alabama jail.

Tf else do you want the post office to do?

Yes, anger at elected officials not delivering on their promises is always wrong and must be replaced by doing even more activism their donors pay them to ignore.
I don’t despair, that would require the possibility of an alternative.

No, it's right to be angry. But believing that "that's all our system is capable of accomplishing anymore" is defeatist tripe.

U.S mint should also do a silver commemorative release, maybe bring back the old half dollar commemoratives

Congrats U.S Postal Service for doing your part to honor the late great civil rights leader Rep John Lewis. =) I am grateful to hear this good news story!

Isn’t it sad that the post office has done the most?
