The 1962 New York Mets were the worst Major League Baseball team ever. They lost 120 games, winning only four. The manager, Casey Stangle, has said to have blurted out, can't anyone here play this game? The answer was no. The cabinet of President Biden is now channeling those men's. Generally speaking, this is a collection of lazy sycophants

who are advising at administration that is incompetent beyond belief. Here is the starting lineup. Leading off, Vice President Kamala Harris, her favorite phrase is, we're going to work together. On what? Remember, President Biden put Ms. Harris in charge of improving the border disaster. Has the nation seen any improvement? No. The vice president continues to research the root causes of illegal immigration. Batting second Homeland Security Chief Alejandro Mayorkas, he is directly responsible for border security. Alejandro is batting zero. No hits. No hope of getting a hit. Hitting third.

Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. He thought the U.S. exit from Afghanistan went well. Geez. Batting fourth. The cleanup spot. Susan Rice, domestic policy Zarina. So how's domestic policy at your house?

Any federal action against them, Pete? No. Pitching for the Biden team is White House spokeswoman Corinne Jean-Pierre. She throws a mean

slider. Standard answer? I haven't seen that. I'll check. Let me get back to you. Is there a bullpen help for Corinne? No. And finally, there's Attorney General Merrick Garland. He is the third base coach who holds everyone up from scoring. Merrick is hot on the trail of the Supreme Court leaker. He's bearing down, working hard. Can't be that many folks who had access to Judge Alito's file, right, Merrick? No rush. Also, Hunter Biden. The grand jury in Delaware has been probing Hunter for two years.

Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. 247 years ago today, the Second Continental Congress formally established the Office of the United States Postmaster General. The first person charged with making sure the mail was delivered, Benjamin Franklin. Here is the story of the U.S. Post Office.

In early colonial times, few Americans mailed letters to the United States. to each other. Nearly all of the correspondence was between England and the USA. People who were born in England wrote letters to their families over there. Mail deliveries across the ocean were sporadic and took months to arrive. At the time, there were no designated post office in the colonies. Messages were dropped off at local taverns then given to merchants, for Britain. In 1753, Ben Franklin was appointed by the monarchy, the king in England, to improve the mail system in America. He immediately hired more riders slashing delivery times and half. Good job, Ben. Then he invented the first postage rate chart, charging different

fees based on distance and weight. Ben Franklin's system is still used today. In 1774, the British fired Franklin for his revolutionary activities. On July 26, 1775, Franklin was appointed postmaster general of the United Colonies by the Continental Congress. Over the years, the mail system morphed into a transcontinental operation. By 1860, the beginning of the Civil War, the Pony Express delivered messages west of the Mississippi, but after 18 months, the Pony Express was wiped out by a new technology, the telegraph. Today, the USA has 50,000 individual post offices. The department delivers 200 billion letters each year to 150 million homes across the USA. The agency also serves citizens around the world in Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin

Islands, and Samoa. The Postal Service is the nation's largest civilian employer, half a million full-time workers. The agency runs an annual deficit of $5 billion. Wow. And here's something else you might not know, like the Pony Express, the Post Office, biggest enemy is technology. Email, killing the post office. Back after this.
