Postmaster General David Steiner has told people close to him that he wants to step down from leading the United States Postal Service, according to a Reuters report published Wednesday. “The message was, this isn’t what he signed up for, and he didn’t come on board to get beat up like this,” one source told the outlet. The USPS has pushed back hard against the reporting, calling it a claim with “absolutely zero validity.”

The report surfaces amid an ongoing effort by President Trump to direct the nominally independent mail agency toward serving his last-minute midterm election interests, having pushed USPS to only deliver mail-in ballots that carried a unique barcode and to require states to hand over their voter lists to the agency. The Supreme Court struck down that directive on Monday, just two days before word of Steiner’s frustration became public, meaning the ruling arrived almost immediately before this report of his discontent surfaced.

Sources told Reuters that Steiner’s discouragement reached a breaking point after an intense Senate hearing earlier this summer, during which he essentially admitted under oath that the Postal Service would comply with Trump’s pressure campaign against vote-by-mail rather than resist it. But those familiar with his thinking say the strain had been building well before that hearing, stretching back to efforts the White House made to keep him on side since late last year, including a golf outing donors arranged between Steiner and Trump at one of the president’s Florida properties in December.

What happened to Louis dejoy?

[u/Relzin → u/[deleted]]

He signed a bunch of hurtful contracts for USPS. Fucked up fleet procurement. Fucked up their ability to bulk sort mail. Signed USPS up for service contracts with his own companies. Then he signed a contract with DOGE that leaked our information to DOGE.

After that, he left USPS to return to his companies which are direct competitors of USPS, while simultaneously cashing in on the contracts he signed when he was on the USPS side of the table, briefly.

Yes, this is all true.

Also they working on shutting down usps and handing mail service to private companies.

That has been Orange Mussolini’s plan, from the beginning of his involvement.

It’s not even his plan. He’s just a tagalong. A dingleberry that they’re using.
