    1. @jose capa firing him is just recycling the problem, in the video they say Democrats want Biden to take oversight. You may have not had problems with your mail since he took office but the problem of billion dollar losses every year because Congress passed a plan to PRE-FUND health and retirement benefits for existing and FUTURE employees. That’s straight up ridiculous for a government entity to do, especially considering in 2006 they were beginning to ship so many Amazon packages it was nearly half of all mail shipped and the government did practically nothing to fix that problem and it only over saturated our mail system. These problems won’t be fixed with a new post master they can only be fixed with a new Congress you know?

    2. @E Garza Great idea. Then we will no longer get daily mail and we will have to pay a LOT more for what we do get. The USPS is required by the Constitution to deliver mail to EVERY American. So you want to get rid of the Constitution?

      Any private company would only deliver to who they can make lots of money delivering to. This is why none of the private utilities wanted to give phone service and electricity to rural areas–because they couldn’t make as much as they’d like to providing that service. Rural areas would be hardest hit and pay the most for basic delivery.

      I’d love to see your face when you finally got what you want. Like someone smacked you on the back of the head. It’ll be like when the Texas utilities started charging whatever they wanted during the recent polar vortex.

    1. @mark Evans because he has proven himself incompetent, and mail delivery has never been worse in recent history. Also because he’s a partisan hack. Hope you’re enjoying the Dumpster fire defeat.

    2. put him, rudy, lindsey, pence, gaetz, haley, all in one cell with pompeo. break the toilet. feed them nothing but bratwurst, cheese, beans, and beer. Throw the cell key away. Run!

    1. @Cho Bai Din yeah have fun in your trailer bro lol I’ll have fun in my house with 2 stories and a basement that I also own and the property it’s sitting on so you ain’t special ya yokel lol plus I don’t qualify for any handouts I was lucky to avoid losing my job unlike so many other Americans at no fault of their own. And ain’t no libs gonna be going by your trailer in country bumfluck nowhere so you’ll be fine 👍😉

    2. Roman Nobody cares about your MAGAt lies. You are just a mindless tool, there to go out and riot and murder Democrats when your orange god orders it.

  1. The Postal Service is in THE CONSTITUTION. He is against it. He has money interests in kneecapping the USPS.

    1. The first postmaster General was none other than Ben Franklin!!!! The US postal service creed used to be: “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds” DeJoy is probably in the pocket of the commercial carriers. He is a crook and and a bum.

    2. @Cindy Klenk He IS a commercial carrier. His appointment under the republican congress was intended to disable this SOCIALIST American system that Mr. Franklin served in. The business he had before his appointment has benefitted from DeJoy’s ‘restructuring’. Trumpian crony.

  2. Biden must appoint honest people to that board. Dejoy has to go. He was a big contributor to Trump’s campaign and he has a interest in a competing company. It was so obvious that he dismantled machinery for voter suppression and he should pay to get those machines repaired.

    1. I got 7 mail in ballots in my mailbox and had 6 months to fill them out. Will I get 7 $2000 checks on day 1 now ?

    2. @Tommy Easton hey if you do I’m your brother from another mother don’t forget that, we’re practically blood 😂😂

    3. Honest people are you a joke there is no honest Republican or Democrat neither side gives a f*** about you y’all need to wake up they’re going to take more than just your jobs

    1. @Day We have 81 million that will work for reality, and every day that number grows. On the other side some die of old age and others return to reality. It is a fight, but it is winnable.

    1. gee sounds like another nasty GOP appointee who needs to be put in his place. Apparently momma never taught them any manners, decency, humanity, humility, or the importance of an honest days work for an honest days pay.

  3. Every American has been damaged by this monster . He lied to congress and attacked the postal service . He should be indicted and sued by the American people for every penny he has

    1. So many payments were chased and work hours were wasted at my job over the Fall and Winter. I personally have a month’s worth of emails I can bring to court in my suit against Mr. DeJoy!

  4. He can be arrested for his corruption and attacks on our country, he can be removed by the people directly. Or he can resign.

    1. He can still be arrested even if he resigns, and I think he knows that and is getting as much advantage as he can while he still has the position.

    2. Uh, except he can’t because he didn’t do anything wrong. Now the people under him that post dated tens of millions of ballots so they couyld be counted illegally and allowed the transport of bogus ballots across state lines… THOSE people can be arrested.

    3. @waituntilthebeep Yeah all those dead people with Covid masks on dug themselves out of their graves in order to cast their votes.

  5. Ok. Force him out. His dismantling of sorting machines right before the election is criminal. He also has HUGE conflicts of interest.

    1. He can’t be forced out and a president cannot “Fire” him. A committee of board of governors must vote another PM General in.

  6. The Postmaster has $75 Million invested in the Post Office’s competition (UPS, FedEx). Where do you think his incentives are?
