Postmaster General Louis DeJoy did not have prior experience in his job. Still, he was appointed by former President Donald Trump anyway, maybe because he was a major Republican Party donor and Trump fundraiser. But he can't do the job. Again, DeJoy was the first postmaster general in two decades without prior USPS experience, and it shows!
Georgia Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff tore into DeJoy during a hearing, and it was well-deserved. A lot of people on Xitter from Georgia are reporting long delays. Since DeJoy took a sledgehammer to the post office, the 3 days or less mail service we used to get is over. And under DeJoy, the USPS has been hemorrhaging money.
"I've got constituents with prescriptions that aren't being delivered," Ossoff said. "I've got constituents who can't pay their rent and their mortgages. I've got businesses who aren't able to ship products or receive supplies."
"I wrote you on March 14th," he continued. "Did you get my letter?"
"My office probably, my office got it," DeJoy said.
"I didn't write your office," Ossoff said. "I wrote you. Did you receive my letter?"
"I have not read your letter," DeJoy said.
"You haven't read my letter," Ossoff said.
"I tried to speak to you Friday or yesterday," DeJoy insisted.
