Hey, @washingtonpost.com. USPS didn’t “post a $X loss in 2025.”
It’s a 233-year-old public service that cost $X to run. By that logic, your local fire department “posts a loss” just by existing between fires.
Those aren’t the same thing. After 148 years of reporting, you should know better by now.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.
