This guy was appointed during Trump’s first term. Back then I remember this gutting/privatization of the USPS being a topic of discussion. I kept expecting to hear that Biden had replaced him; I wonder what made him keep him.

After seeing all the things that Orange is doing both in his first and new terms, Biden’s term feels like a lame Presidency with just complaints about how Republicans wouldn’t allow him to accomplish his agenda. His entire spiel during the election was to save America from another fascist president, and he did the complete opposite by giving away the country to a herd of fascists. History will remember him as the enabling President for fascism.
