Trump Begs SCOTUS to Curb Mail Votes as Diesel Surges

Original version ·

Just when election season couldn't get messier, Donald Trump is sprinting to the highest court to rein in mailboxes while truckers weep at the pump.

Midterms are creeping up fast, and the playbook never really changes. Trump went straight to the Supreme Court, asking the justices to unblock his plan allowing the USPS to choke off mail-in voting.

Because why let voters casually drop an envelope in a box when there's an outcome to stress over? The whole gamble hinges on getting the high bench to greenlight ballot restrictions just weeks before voting begins.

Meanwhile, in the physical economy where things actually move, diesel fuel quietly punched through the ceiling to an all-time record high. Delivery trucks are practically running on liquid gold while lawyers argue whether envelopes are too dangerous to touch.

Nothing screams peak democracy quite like fighting tooth and nail over mailboxes while the fuel needed to deliver them costs a fortune.
