      I mean, when you don’t give a shit about whether your actions have any basis in legality at all, you can do whatever you want and leave it to others to try and clean up after your decision.

        I’m pretty sure that the excellently named beermeister was referring to the fact that Biden DIDN’T do his job of cleaning up the radioactive sludge that is DeJoy being in charge of the USPS.

        He had the power to do so legally, but CHOSE not to for 4 years.

    In the past, it’s been a very good thing that a US Postmaster is almost impossible to replace. Unfortunately. DeJoy represents what Democrats and Republicans want: something they can sell off to the billionaires at a massive personal profit.

    It’s heartwarming to see all of Trumps appointees agreeing they REALLY suck ass and have no idea what their agency is actually doing, and thus seek to abolish themselves. From USPS, to Department of Education, to Congress itself.
