15. The USPS was working fine before DeJoy took over.

Congress should be asking for specific details of what he changed and why. Like why did he destroy a new million-dollar sorting machine?

Biden has nominated Democratic members for the Board of Governors. Their hearings need to be fast tracked, or are Republicans dragging their confirmation out too? Once in place, they can fire DeJoy because I think they will have the majority. If they can’t, then Biden needs to demand that the Board fire DeJoy for cause.
