New Postmaster General Louis DeJoy defended the U.S. Postal Service’s independence from the Trump administration and said that the agency has ample capacity to handle an influx of mailed ballots

in the coming election.

Mr. DeJoy’s comments Friday came as the agency reported another deep quarterly loss, stemming from both longstanding financial problems and fresh challenges from operating during the coronavirus pandemic, which has increased costs amid a decrease in mail volume.

Men must hide their beauty always like this, not only because of the china man and his bat soup virus 🌹 men are sensual beauties. Please cover brother. You are precious gold.

RIGHT. And it just so happens after years of bleeding money, that this $2 Million donor appointee makes these changes which affect delivery at the same time as Trump keeps whining about mail-in voting. DontBeALemming ComplicitGOP

He can lie & SAY it every time he’s asked but truth is Trump only gives control of agencies to those who can do the most damage - Idiot chick at Education Sleepy man at housing Anti Post office P.O. General - when the ballots start moving it’ll be a different story

Yeah, since they can't deliver people's mail right now as it is. Reports from across the country if mail not blreceiving any mail deliveries for days at a time.

He’s lying.

New Postmaster General Louis DeJoy kissed trumps ass today claiming the agency has ample capacity to handle an influx of mailed ballots...wink wink

I know people in the postal service...that's BS. Fire him.

Uh huh. Right. K.

What's truly sad is we have a spineless congress (both houses) that refuses to privatize the postal service. Fact is the postal service will never make money and will always require billion dollar subsidies. No business in America could survive the massive losses we see with USPS

Ppl know it not gonna work.Lets get out and vote

Then go ahead post office. If u can handle it. We don't want any complaints saying its too much or there's a delay etc... ppl expect u to stand by what ur saying and DELIVER.

They can’t even handle mail now! How to we get rid of this guy

Seriously?

That must be why I receive my neighbors mail all the time.

It’s amazing how many people fall for the bullshit answers. Anyone with stock in UPS and Fed Ex will not be the best person to lead the Postal Service. He bought the position with a two million dollar donation to trump

With Mr. DeJoy's professional logistics expertise, he is the right person for this job.

The proof will be in actions, not words. I seriously doubt when they write this chapter in history books people will be talking about how Postmaster General Louis DeJoy stood up to the Trump administration and defended the right to vote.

Desperately needs the business revenue to survive; of course they can handle it reasonably on time.

We’ve had mail issues since June but ok sure

Pack up your office...

Dead end manoeuvre, talk about your incompetence and not others.

yes mail in ballots, its great opportunity for democrats to mobilize and hit neighborhoods to 'help' illegals, Hispanics, blacks who are uneducated, etc. to fill out their ballot. Great opportunity.

Can we take a vote of confidence like they do in the UK ?

everyone who believes that stand on your head..

He should be arrested and his possessions should be confiscated.

I dont care what he say i care about what he do... we need to remove all the croonies who are destroying institutions to keep themselves in power

Testify to it, under oath, and bring supporting documentation/evidence.

Want the mask

Stenography much?

Per Wikipedia: “The postmaster general is the second-highest paid U.S. government official, based on publicly available salary information, after the president of the United States.” Who knew?

Haven’t gotten my WSJ for this past week, but they can handle the influx.

Me thinks he’s not being Honest!!!

I’d send him a strongly-worded letter, but he’d never get it

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s funny

Great shoulda pumped this for Sanders campaign not now useless as usual

Merkley: Postmaster general might be working with Trump in a 'form of election manipulation'Sen. Merkley says he's worried that 'the postmaster general is working with the president to make [the US Postal Service] a problem so he can argue he doesn't like vote by mail.' 'It's another form of election manipulation.' If preventing voter fraud equates to 'election manipulation'. I say we need a lot more 'election manipulation'. “Might be working with”..... … More like, IS, working with... the devil. Exactly! Vote by mail should be safe but we are playing in Trump’s hands.

Postmaster General Touts Postal Service Overhaul But Promises On-Time Election MailThe new postmaster general’s close ties to President Tump have sparked questions about whether he has an interest in affecting the delivery of mail ballots. But he insists the Postal Service has 'ample capacity” to handle them. Questions? Jesus, you guys. Get up to speed. Hahahaha no typos!!!! The key isn’t the postal service... this is a distraction. It is the capability of the county level electoral offices. Many do not have the bodies to handle massive mail in ballots. it comes down to $$ and the ability to pay people to count.
