’Tis the Season for DeJoy’s Removal
Nov 23

Louis DeJoy, the Republican mega-
donor who took charge of the USPS
during the last year of Donald Trump’s
presidency, continues to advance the
wrecking-crew agenda that caused
Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to
label him “the worst Postmaster
General in American history.”

DeJoy sparked widespread criticism last
year, after it was revealed that he had
ordered the decommissioning of more than
600 mail sorting machines across the
country, the removal of mail collection
boxes in dozens of communities, and
scheduling changes that Forbes reported
“resulted in widespread mail delays and
accusations that the Trump administration
is seeking to hobble the agency ahead of
the 2020 Election Day to hinder the
delivery of mail-in ballots.” Under
pressure from postal unions and Congress,
the postmaster general “paused” many of
those moves in the fall of 2020.

Now, however, DeJoy is back at it.

Since March of this year, he’s been
promoting a 10-year “reorganization”
plan for the Postal Service that would
slow down delivery times for first-class
mail, hike postage rates, and reduce
hours for post offices. The postmaster
general and his cronies have tried to
portray the proposed changes as a
streamlining project, but The Washington
Post correctly characterized it as a
strategic initiative “that diminishes
delivery standards and raises prices.”
The effect of those changes makes this—
in the words of Chuck Zlatkin, the
legislative and political director for
the New York Metro Area Postal Union—
“DeJoy’s 10-year plan for the de facto
privatization of the post office.”

He's now working for the Biden administration. If Biden permits the
changes, it's not Trump's fault.

Ahem.

The Postmaster General is not a
presidental appointee, the president
cannot dictate his policies or even
fire him.

Don't you know anything about this?

We've been through this before and you ran away. But ok, if the
President has no control of position, why are you blaming Trump for
the actions of this guy. THINK before responding please.

Because Trump appointed the majority of the postal service board of governors
who appointed DeJoy as president.

It's Trump.

Evasion noted. You said Dejoy is working
for the Biden Administration, he is not, you
lied.

Yet again............

YOUR evasion noted. You're blaming Trump for something that you claim
a President does bear the responsibility for then he doesn't (when the
President is a Democrate).

Trump appointed the majority of the USPS board of governors who named the
incompetent crook DeJoy as postmaster general. Trump is to blame.
