Effective February 5, 2025, the Postal Service will continue accepting all international inbound mail and packages from China and Hong Kong Posts. The USPS and Customs and Border Protection are working closely together to implement an efficient collection mechanism for the new China tariffs to ensure the least disruption to package delivery.

You’d think all these reversals would get old, but it doesn’t.

    I think there’s, relatively speaking, a very few career politicians who are milionaires. Certainly representatives and senators, but there are somewhere between 100,000 and 200,000 elected officials in the US. Most of them are making less than they would in private industry, many of them because they want to make things better for people.

    That said, . . . yeah.

      Idk, half of congress is. You don’t have to be a millionaire to enable corruption either. State and local politicians take bribes of thousands of dollars frequently enough to be caught and documented in the news.
