I can, I just prefer people that make dumb AF posts to back them up. That's all.
After reading through that article, I want to highlight this particular paragraph...
"The U.S. Postal Service Board of Governors has sole authority to hire and fire the postmaster general, the highest position in the organization. Though pressure mounts from Democrats and watchdogs to remove DeJoy from his seat at the top of the agency, Biden lacks the power to do so."
Now maybe in misinterpreting this, but I think it says Biden can't remove him.
So I guess it is just meming without elaboration. Glad we could clear that up
And yet he has, and has had, the power to appoint governors to directly fix the problem.
So you're saying he doesn't have the power to remove DeJoy? Got it
Sorry about your reading comprehension
One of us made a verifiably false statement. And it wasn't me.
Sure, Jan.
