Summary

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy faced sharp criticism during a House Oversight Committee hearing over USPS delivery issues, financial troubles, and his leadership.

Rep. Rich McCormick mocked DeJoy for covering his ears during heated exchanges, accusing him of bankrupting the postal system and undermining public trust.

DeJoy defended his performance, citing ongoing efforts to overhaul USPS through a $40 billion plan, including electric vehicles, but admitted regrets and challenges.

Tensions reflect broader frustrations over USPS reforms and the agency’s financial sustainability amid mixed results.

    It’s not my idea, it’s the rules.

    No more than five governors may be from the same party.

    Appointments are made when vacancies occur or for the remainder of unexpired terms.

    Governors may continue to serve following expiration of their term or until a successor is appointed, but not for more than one year. No member may serve more than two terms as a governor.

    Apparently rules without any teeth though, so yeah Biden should have just broke them like a million other precedents he was to afraid to break.

      I get where you are coming from but relying on “rules” and “bipartisanship” is a farce. Bad faith actors don’t play by the rules therefore they only become a hindrance to those who do.
