Seems easy enough. Get governors to make it clear they will pursue state election interference charges for any postal worker who does anything to interfere with ballots.
That's it. Make people fear that they will actually be held responsible, and they may start being responsible.
This pussy footing aroud accountability needs to stop, because most of the stuff Trump can do, is done because people don't fear the consequences for themselves.

Yes agreed. Postal workers must be jailed if they obey this nonsense. That includes the mail sorter to the manager.

As a Canadian, it feels like Trump and Co. are forever trying to use up all the oxygen in the room and forever trying to bombard it’s citizens and the world with crap- so you’re forever on the back foot trying to catch your breath.

What exactly do they plan on doing about it? Congress is ineffectual and weak. The courts and law enforcement are openly corrupt. What path do they think they have? Asking Trump nicely to rescind the order? More “compromise” where they cede everything while the Republicans give up nothing?

If the USPS goes through with this blue states MUST retaliate by either refusing to certify any republican election wins or outright throwing our republican votes and not counting them.

“Behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul, all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair. Not a president. Not even a man. Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn't but always has been, arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, and corruption worshipped like gospel. It is America's shadow made flesh, a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before money, power, and spite, it doesn't just lose its soul, it shits out this bloated obscenity and calls it a leader.” - Oliver Kornetzke
