Why was Louis DeJoy allowed to be hired? He has no credentials and mountains of financial conflicts of interest.

The war against the Postal Service: Postal services should be expanded for the public good, not diminished by special interests:
www.epi.org
The Postal Service is many things---among them, a public service; part of the nation’s critical infrastructure; a regulated monopoly; a good employer, especially for Black workers and military veterans; and a government enterprise competing with and supplying services to private companies.

What this report finds: The United States Postal Service is a beloved American institution that provides an essential public service to communities and good middle class jobs for workers. It is a model of efficiency and responsive to changing customer needs.
But the conflicting demands made upon it by Congress and regulators put it in a precarious financial position even before the pandemic.
Anti-government ideologues and special interests have long sought to privatize, shrink, or hobble the Postal Service. The Trump administration revived these efforts, spurred by the president’s opposition to mail voting and his animus toward Amazon, a major customer.
What needs to be done: The Biden administration and Congress must act to undo the damage and allow the Postal Service to adapt to meet unmet needs, including the revival of postal banking.
New Postal Service head is a top Trump donor. What does that mean for its future?
Louis DeJoy, who has been a top donor to Trump and the Republican National Committee, was in charge of fundraising for the 2020 Republican National Convention.
