Check yourself, Nancy…

In her “letter to colleagues”,  which was actually a press release,  Speaker Pelosi claims the United States Postal Service  delivers Social  Security checks,  among other things.   How can she not know that Social Security checks have not been delivered by mail in a decade?   Dollars to donuts she was singing Saint Obama’s praises and cheering the use of technology to reduce costs and increase safety by taking the postal Service out of the equation.  So of course she wants the Postal Service to become Election Central, and therefore keeps conflating absentee ballots with regular ballots.  Absentee ballots require first-class postage.  They are expensive to handle and send and check and copies of the voter’s photo identification are required along with special envelopes.  Democrats do not care what it costs counties and states or the feds,  and they are vehemently opposed to requiring any sort of individual ID or tracking, because those things would impede their efforts to impede Republican candidates.

Pelosi is calling Congress back to  work on   for the Postal Service,  but her goal is to try to force Trump into handing over $25 billion so Democrats can claim the service has plenty of money to handle total all mail-in elections.

PJ Media is watching the convention so we need not torture ourselves.   They  have captured  the essence well, and had some fun.
