Summary:
Louis DeJoy has resigned as postmaster general of the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) amid uncertainty about the agency’s future under President Trump.
DeJoy had notified the USPS board of directors in February that it was “time for them to begin the process of identifying his successor.” His resignation on Monday expedites that process and leaves Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino in charge until a permanent replacement is found.
“While our management team and the men and women of the Postal Service have established the path toward financial sustainability and high operating performance – and we have instituted enormous beneficial change to what had been an adrift and moribund organization – much work remains that is necessary to change our positive trajectory,” DeJoy said in a statement first reported by Reuters.
DeJoy had served as Postmaster General since May 2020. He previously donated to GOP political campaigns.
All I’m hearing here is a lack of imagination. And the current clusterfuck administration has an abundance of imagination in this realm, and we knew they would. Stands to reason that maybe Biden should have done more than sit on his fucking hands in the interest of forestalling the fascists.
