Ex-Postal Service board member testifies Mnuchin tried to politicize agency
By Cristina Marcos - 08/20/20 05:37 PM EDT

The former vice chairman of the U.S. Postal Service board of governors and inspector general accused Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin of trying to politicize the independent agency during testimony before lawmakers on Thursday.

David Williams, a former Postal Service inspector general who resigned in April as the vice chairman of the agency's board of governors, said that he stepped down from his role because he felt the Treasury Department was trying to make the traditionally apolitical agency a "political tool."

“I resigned from the board of governors because I was convinced that its independent role had been marginalized and that representations regarding an independent Postal Service for the nation were no longer truthful," Williams said during a forum hosted by the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

I'm SHOCKED!

Why would someone want to politicize an agency that hires people who don't speak or understand English,and allows them to have a translator in the room with them as they take the tests to explain the questions to them?

Not to mention an AA program to hire and promote homosexuals,blacks,and any other "protected species" ahead of evil Caucasians?

Surely you jest?

LOL  But, the U.S. Postal Service Union always backs Democrats.  I guess that isn't "politicizing."
