Opinion | FrankFigliuzzi1: When the GOP needed DeJoy to deliver — first through large, and lawfully questionable, donations and as manipulator of the mail — he was the total package. Now, the USPS Board of Governors should stamp DeJoy “Return to Sender”
to the joint fundraising machine of former President Donald Trump’s 2016 election campaign and the Republican Party. He knows exactly what he’s doing, and he’s gone to great lengths to do it. The kind of circuitous contribution tactics he’s accused of don’t happen by accident — they actually serve as evidence of DeJoy’s alleged malfeasance.
Two other employees familiar with New Breed’s financial and payroll systems said DeJoy would instruct that bonus payments to staffers be boosted to help defray the cost of their contributions. The Washington Post reported that"federal and state campaign finance records found a pattern of extensive donations by New Breed employees to Republican candidates, with the same amount often given by multiple people on the same day. Between 2000 and 2014, 124 individuals who worked for the company together gave more than $1 million to federal and state GOP candidates. Many had not previously made political donations, and have not made any since leaving the company, public records show.
