How gun-toting US Postal Service inspectors helped arrest Steve Bannon on a yacht before he was indicted for stealing $1M in
border wall fundraising 'scam'
- Steve
Bannon was arrested Thursday after a Coast Guard vessel stopped him on a
yacht off the coast of Connecticut
- The
first officers to board the yacht were armed members of the US Postal
Investigative Service (USPIS)
- The
USPIS inspectors swept the boat before federal agents arrived to put
Bannon in handcuffs
- The
central role USPIS played in the stunning arrest helped pull the agency
out of obscurity as most Americans were likely unaware of its existence
- USPIS is America's oldest law
enforcement agency,
investigating everything from child exploitation to drug trafficking to
financial crimes
·
'The
US Postal Inspection Service is committed to identifying and investigating
anyone who exploits others for their own benefits,' Chief Postal Inspector Gary
Barksdale said in a statement Thursday.
·
The
arrests in this case could go down as one of USPIS's most famous throughout its
245-year history - perhaps shadowed only by that of Charles Ponzi in
1920.
·
USPIS
is regarded as America's first law enforcement agency. It was founded in 1775 -
the same year as the US Postal Service - when William Goddard was named as the
nation's first Surveyor under Postmaster General Benjamin Franklin.
·
Goddard's
role involved auditing postal accounts and investigating theft of mail or
postal funds, according to a timeline on the agency's website.
·
The
agency's role expanded into the 19th century as people began migrating out west
and mail traveling further across the country became the target of criminals
including Billy the Kid, who was interviewed by postal agents in 1881
about mail robberies in Santa Fe.
·
Over
the next century and a half USPIS had a hand in investigating a number of
high-profile criminals, including Lee Harvey Oswald, who allegedly used a
mail-order rifle to kill President John F Kennedy in 1963.
·
In
1996, USPIS also helped hunt down 'Unabomber' Ted Kaczynski, who killed three
people and injured 23 others in a massive mail-bomb campaign from 1978 to 1995.
·
In
2019, the agency conducted 5,759 arrests that led to nearly 5,000 convictions -
mostly involving mail theft, mail fraud or prohibited mailings.
·
Despite
its wide-ranging responsibilities involving virtually any crime committed via
the mail, USPIS receives much less exposure than the agencies it partners with,
including the FBI and ATF.

Regardless of who is elected, it'll be Civil War
And make no
mistake: The two-party system in America has been an illusion and a deception
for quite some time. Most Republican elected officials who support the
president are only supporting him because of his popularity amongst Republicans
and swing voters. Nearly all of
them hold allegiance to the Washington establishment and have been
vehemently opposed to Trump's housekeeping efforts from the start.

Governor of Maine Orders Restaurant Staff to Wear COVID Visors Like Dog Cones
“Must now wear them upside down so that they are attached at
the collar instead of the forehead.”
Governor Janet Mills’ decree states that “front-of-house
staff in restaurants who choose to wear face shields must now wear them upside
down so that they are attached at the collar instead of the forehead, so that
their breath is directed up, not down,” reports Maine
Public Radio.
Given that air conditioning units can facilitate the spread
of coronavirus, Mills’ order looks like another ridiculous and pointless
measure.
