The President has zero authority to "take control of the USPS", and zero control over getting rid of the postal board or their members.
If that were the case Biden would have kicked DeJoy the fuck out of there years ago.
He has as much authority here as he does to make Canada a state - fucking ZERO.

Just to recap, the orange convicted felon threatened Canada and Mexico with tariffs but he never expected Canada and Mexico to retaliate in a big way, so then he folded under pressure and agreed to deals with them that President Biden had already put into place last year. 🤣

The media is complicit!
Trump just called Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) a “fantastic guy”
MBS ordered the brutal murder of US-based journalist, Jamal Khashoggi
What Trump didn't mention is that MBS is funding the construction of a new Trump Tower in Serbia
This story has been ignored by most media outlets

Reminder for anyone who sees Trump as a savior: He lobbied to have tiktok banned in the first place, and now he’s positioning himself as the hero by unbanning it. It’s theatrics.
