    The US Postal Service, which is a taxpayer-funded government department, placed this employee on unpaid leave, claiming in a letter to him that he "placed other employees in harms way" and "damaged the reputation of the postal service" through his whistleblowing, casting light on alleged election fraud.

    Then on top of that, when this man tries to start a GoFundMe page to receive sympathetic donations, that company shuts down his account to make sure he suffers.

    Richard Hopkins claimed that the Eerie, Pennsylvania USPS location he was working at was allegedly cheating voters by backdating election ballots not eligible to be counted because they missed the deadline.

    The left is going after anyone who speaks out against them and yeah the USPS is left biased because the Democrats donate money to them.

    I think the more accurate narrative is people are discouraging liars and conspiracy theorist. That why you're reading this bulls!ht from site like 100percentfedup. Weak reputation for the weak minded.

    He was intimidated and recorded it. He also stated he never recanted his accusations.

    he was not intimidated, he was told if he was lying it was a crime, and he decided to fess up

    they only had I think it was like 129 come in on the 3rd and 9 on the 4th if I recall, so it never happened

    and even if it had, that would not of been enough votes to change anything

    the real issue is how many votes were denied due to Trump trying to slow down mail service, I have not seen those numbers yet, I want to see the number of late ballots by state that were denied

    The letter does not specifically say, but presumably what they meant was that him publicly claiming there was improper conduct was the cause of other angry members of the public making threats against the Eerie post location and employees.

    In other words, you can be fired for speaking the truth, if that truth causes other people to become angry and thereby causes some indirect threat to people working there.

    Of course those in charge of the Post Office claim that this man's claim was a false allegation.

    So you can be fired if you accuse your employer of misconduct, and your employer says that the accusation is not true.
    In this case it was a government employer.

    When reporters investigated, they found, what, only 2 mail-in votes from that post office that were postmarked on election day and arrived later? And they found around 50 that were postmarked after election day. Those two things together completely destroy this guy's claims. He was lying. Yes, he did recant. He can claim all he wants no that he didn't, but legally, he did.

    Yes! Finally someone who understands that bring put on unpaid leave for lying about your employer is basically the same thing as fascism. The rest of you need to get a clue! :roflol:
