the post office had to prepay. one of the highest liabilities along to fund pension liabilities at a much higher level and they had been paying since 2012. can you imagine stopping paying bills since 2012? usps can save billions over 10 years. and the postal reform act would eliminate of the prepaid retiree and require them to develop a public facing online dashboard. the idea is save the post office for the american people. save it for the workers. and save it because it is patriotic to do so. the speaker pro tempore: the time of the gentlelady has expired. the gentleman from kentucky. mr. comer: i yield one minute to the dean of the house, mr. young. the speaker pro tempore: the dean of the house is recognized. mr. young: thank you, mr. comer. this is a good bill. i have been working on this program for eight years. i was here when they stopped the post office and we caused this mess and you guys are cleaning it up. this is the right way to go for the post office. you may have wondered why i'm excited. try living

the telegram group that posted nigar�*s videos has since been shutdown.tion from the platform is rare, as we found out for ourselves. telegram's terms of service make users agree not to post illegal pornographic content on publicly viewable telegram channels, bots etc. the app has a report function for porn and an e—mail address for abuse. so, as an experiment, we found 100 images and reported them as porn to telegram. one month later, we found that 96 images were still there, and the other four pictures were in groups that we couldn't get back into. and that is not all, during our investigation, an account from russia also tried to sell us a folder full of child abuse videos. for less than the price of a coffee. we reported it to telegram and the metropolitan police but two months later, the posts and the channel were still there. the experts we spoke to suggest telegram isn't really interested in moderating content further. the owner of telegram declares himself as a libertarian, a person who follows this libertarian ideology. it includes this emphasis

users can be totally anonymous and can post publicly and privately. members and channels can broadcast to an unlimited audience. telegram was created by a russian businessman in 2013 and has become a powerful tool for pro—democracy movements in places like hong kong, belarus and iran. but its focus on anonymity also makes it popular with criminals. the names, the identity of administrators of channels, are often hidden by default and it is a big contrast to other platforms like facebook and that is what makes telegram unusual. telegram's anonymity has allowed channels like this one from russia to flourish. it has more than 100,000 subscribers. we have come across hundreds of channels like it in more than 20 countries. telegram is basically being weaponised telegram is basically being weaponise— silence them... telegram is being weaponised and used against women to silence them and we see that a lot, being used in retaliation for women activists and journalists' work of them being critical of the government and their families as well can be put at risk

so you have to rely on post election funds. in that instance the candidate is quite a bit chilled from using his or her own resources above $250,000 because there is no possibility of repayment under this statute, even in $2900 chunks. >> i first concede your premise that there will be situations in which very close to the election the candidate will be faced with a choice of either limiting the size of the loan he makes or being willing to eat a portion of it. i think the two things i would say are first, congress has the objective that it has of reducing candidates' reliance on outside contributors for financial well-being, and congress can be concern about candidate who is put themselves this is their position, where in order to be repaid in full, they have to solicit postelection contributions from donors who know that the candidate has won and know that the donor is dependent on new money in order to be made whole. the second thing i would say is, even if you thought the statute would be unconstitutional as applied to that
