U.S. Congressman David Trone (MD-06) released the following statement regarding the Trump Administration’s recent assault on the U.S. Postal Service:
“President Trump and Postmaster General DeJoy’s efforts to dismantle the U.S. Postal Service are an attempt to undermine a fundamental institution in our democracy. These actions are unacceptable, and the Postmaster General should be removed immediately.
“The U.S. Postal Service is a constitutionally-guaranteed service that Americans have relied on since our country’s very foundation. But recent actions to use the USPS as a pawn in a political game have led millions of American to suffer. Seniors are going without the medication they need to stay healthy. Workers are going without their paychecks. Voters are unable to make their voices heard in our democracy. And all of this is happening in the middle of a global health crisis and economic recession.
“These outrageous attacks are putting American lives, businesses, and our democracy at stake. People in Maryland and across the country are demanding action — and we cannot sit back and allow this to continue. This week the House will pass the Delivering for America Act to reverse this Administration's sabotage of the Postal Service, and we will hear directly from the Postmaster General about these senseless and harmful actions.
“We need to act quickly to restore the U.S Postal Service to its full capacity to ensure that all Americans receive their mail, medication, and benefits on-time. Our democracy depends on it.”

The Postmaster General Louis DeJoy donated $440 to the Trump campaign. That alone should disqualify him from holding any office in the administration. But hey, it’s the Trump administration. Small hands Donnie makes it up as he goes.

Very good Bob, far too many, every day in fact, but then why ruin a great narrative. It’s called ” Trump Derangement Syndrome “

Yes K, Trump – AKA Individual #1, David Dennison, or John Barron – will be charged with multiple felonies after he is voted out of office. That’s a big reason why he changed his residence to Florida from NY. The SDNY has an ongoing investigation into his law breaking when Michael Cohen was his attorney. It will all come out in due time.
