  1. Worth reading! (Short.)

    Three things:

    1. I have to admit that "Incel Clown Posse" as a name for DOGE was new to me. 🤣
    2. How is it that Louis DeJoy is the only one in any part of government to slow-walk a DOGE invasion? Fucking DeJoy!?
    3. Kiss the postal service goodbye.

  7. Louis #DeJoy #Resigns as #Postmaster General 🤔

    His sudden departure comes after he struck an agreement earlier this month to allow Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency inside the USPS to cut costs and remove bureaucratic red tape.

  8. US Postmaster General #Dejoy quits with immediate effect. Something is behind the curtain, but your guess is as good as mine. axios.com/2025/03/24/dejoy-ste

  9. Is the USPS on the brink of privatization? Postmaster General Louis DeJoy's partnership with Elon Musk's DOGE aims to cut 10,000 jobs to save billions, but critics fear this could degrade public service. The initiative, linked to the General Services Administration, highlights deep financial issues but raises alarm over the future of the Postal Service.

  10. U.S. Postmaster General Louis #DeJoy’s Thursday announcement that the independent United States #Postal #Service is partnering with the Department of Government Efficiency on a cost-cutting crusade that includes a
    🔥planned reduction of 10,000 workers stoked fears that one of America’s most trusted and relied-upon federal agencies is on a path toward #privatization.
    In a letter to congressional leaders, DeJoy said #DOGE will help the USPS “in identifying and achieving further efficiencies.”
    The postal chief listed “mismanagement” of the agency’s #retirement #assets and workers’ compensation program,
    “unfunded mandates imposed on us by legislation,” and “burdensome regulatory requirements restricting 'normal' business practice” as issues to be addressed.

  12. #DeJoy #USPS

    "The US postmaster general, Louis DeJoy, said on Tuesday he had asked the US Postal Service (USPS) governing board to identify his successor.

    In November, DeJoy warned that the post office, which has lost more than $100bn since 2007, must continue to cut costs or will remain on the path to either a 'government bailout or the end of this great organization as we know it'.

    USPS did not say when DeJoy – who has headed the agency since 2020 – plans to step down. His announcement comes weeks after Donald Trump took office.

    USPS is implementing a 10-year restructuring plan announced in 2021 that aims to eliminate $160bn in predicted losses over the next decade. USPS now projects $80bn in losses over the period and plans further cuts to address the shortfall."

  13. US Postmaster General #Dejoy announces that he plans to resign, and enjoins the board to begin looking for a replacement who will continue the crippling of the US Postal Service federalnewsnetwork.com/people/

  14. among the many failings of biden's government IMO was to not get rid of this fool dejoy.. mail service has declined precipitously. and now guess who will get to replace him? the board that would not remove him. JFC this place.

  16. The post office finally delivered the package that spent over a week stuck in an Ohio distro. They damaged one package from Amazon and had to send it back, lost a return I made (so I'm probably out that money), and one package is taking the scenic route from NY to VA via IL.

    And this is only going to get worse.

  17. Senator Josh Harley (R-MO) tells #USPS chief #DeJoy "I will kill your plan to reform the Postal Service. DeJoy's plan would slow mail delivery, with particularly severe impact on rural areas govexec.com/management/2024/12

  18. If you haven't figured it out by now, #Bezos will buy out #USPS in a fire sale. Strip the #unions out. Rescind all the retirement plans.

    This is why #WAPO pushed Russian propaganda as news, and refused to endorse Harris.

    This has been planned for years, and #DeJoy is the executioner.

  19. Oh yeah, guess since #Biden refused to do it 👆 (though… ⏰ 👀) #DeJoy will never be fired now.

  20. Postmaster General #DeJoy has screwed the USPS so badly that we received our Sept. water bill one full month late.

    Now the RNC et al have gotten the 5th Circuit to invalidate the Mississippi rule allowing ballots postmarked by election day be received late. This is voter suppression when they have to drive any distance to drop the ballot and there’s no other accessible early voting options.

    Federal elections should have the same rules in every state.

  21. Postmaster General #DeJoy has screwed the post office to the point where we received our Sept. water bill one full month late.

    Now the RNC et al have gotten the 5th Circuit to rule mailed ballots must be received by election day, not just postmarked by then. This is voter suppression when you have to drive a significant distance to a drop place and there’s no other early voting. Federal election

  22. @dangillmor

    I’d love to believe #Democrats are not STILL so mind-blowingly self-destructive, but apparently keeping #DeJoy empowered is intentional:

    #Biden appointees have held a majority on the #USPS board since 2022, when three of his appointees were confirmed by Peters' committee. However, his appointees have been slow to fire DeJoy given his close partnership with the Biden administration on clean energy policy.”

  23. #DeJoy, a fmr #Trump donor who assumed his role in Jan 2020, has faced criticism & calls to step down from #Democrats — including this week from Sen #JonOssoff (D-GA), who said operational delays in the state “reflected the incompetent leadership & the incompetent management of the postmaster general himself.”
    
But Trump also recently alleged in a social media post that it was “not possible” to trust the #USPS to process #election mail.

    #USPS #Election2024

  24. “We recognize that #election officials are under an extreme amount of pressure & will remain so for at least the next 2 months,” #DeJoy said. “Let me be clear: The Postal Service is ready to deliver the nation’s mail-in ballots. … Our track record is strong. We have been transporting & delivering ballots since 1864.”

    Election officials across the country are urging United States Postmaster General Louis #DeJoy to fix what they’ve identified as significant issues causing lost, delayed or undeliverable mail that could impact voting in the 2024 election. democracydocket.com/news-alert

  26. State and election officials from across the country issued a ⭐️warning Wednesday that ongoing concerns with the country's mail system could #disenfranchise #voters.

    #Mail-in #voting has become more popular since the pandemic but officials have persistently warned that the U.S. Postal Service has struggled with #delivery #failures.

    The latest warning from the National Association of Secretaries of State and the National Association of State Election Directors comes as a number of states are set to
    👉begin early votingthis month.

    🔥A host of problems with the mail delivery system have been evident over the past year, the two groups wrote in a letter to U.S. Postmaster General #Louis #DeJoy Wednesday.

    These include receiving mailed ballots that had been postmarked on time arrive after the deadline to be counted
    and instances in which ballots that were correctly addressed were returned to voters as undeliverable.

    "We have not seen improvement or concerted efforts to remediate our concerns," despite repeated outreach efforts to USPS, the groups wrote.

    "We implore you to take immediate and tangible corrective action ... failure to do so will risk limiting voter participation and trust in the election process," they said.

    While mail-in voting is likely to be less prevalent this year than it was in 2020, both parties have embraced encouraging voters to cast their ballots early via mail.


    Trump spent years disparaging early voting as "corrupt," earlier this year he and several GOP groups embraced mail-in voting.

    Democrats, on the other hand, welcomed vote-by-mail efforts in 2020 and now enjoy a large mail-in voting advantage in swing states

    The simple fact that #Trump proxy Louis #DeJoy remains at the helm of the #UnitedStatesPostOffice may be one of the biggest own-goals #SmilingJoeBiden managed to inflict on the United States of America

    The simple problem is that the #DemocraticNationalCommittee has zero political awareness beyond nagging for contributions

    Time Magazine, which tends to lean left, opened my eyes about this guy. I say keep him and let him finish the job. What say you?

    I don't remember who made this sticker originally, but it came from an open clip art library, so I felt pretty okay re-making it (with @qzap's InDesign help).

    It's a printable label sheet that has a canceled stamp with a snail mail logo and reads "CANCEL DEJOY - SAVE USPS." Download from here drive.google.com/file/d/1NRYnn

    Original snail mail design from clipart-library.com/clipart/28. Graphic shows what it looks like.
