Shit Hole Portland just shut off trade and shipping from Texas, and the Dumbocrats are trying to make it a state resolution to cut off trade state wide. Quote Link to comment

iceman510 Posted September 8, 2021 Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 Actual not legal for any state to restrict commerce between states. That is one that is specifically called out in the constitution, that Congress reserves the right to control that. (ICC). No shipper should legitimately be party to enforcing such a ridiculous attempt. https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C3-1-2/ALDE_00001058/ 1 2 Quote Link to comment

This is what I was thinking. The article I read about it said the city attorney was going to check and see if they could legally do it, but I am 99.9% positive they can't. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mattndew76 Posted September 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 Problem is we are principled people. We follow laws how they're intended to be. Have you noticed that laws are ignored for the cult ideology right now? Quote Link to comment

I ordered a bunch of stuff to fix my Subaru and paid for 2 day shipping. That was a week and a half ago. It finally shipped last Thursday, made it from Tacoma to Everett that day. It sat there all day Friday, and FedEx indicated it would be delivered Monday (not Friday, as it “wasn’t ready”). On Monday tracking said it would be delayed. No reason, just delayed. Finally arrived late Tuesday, after languishing in Everett, a 30 minute drive from my place. FedEx has been like this ever since Covid. Any excuse to underperform. 1 Quote Link to comment
