The Postmaster General is selected by, and serves at the pleasure of, the Board of Governors of the Postal Service. Those are the people, not Trump, who can save the Post Office by firing DeJoy.

I think I may have a way to make them do it.

The policies put in place by DeJoy are resulting in the mail being delivered later and later. This is a blatant violation of 18 USC 1701. But that is a federal crime and there is no way I am going to believe that U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr is going to enforce it.

Our solution appears to lie in state law. Delaying the mail is having a serious negative impact on people who receive their prescription drugs by mail. BTW this includes almost all prescriptions filled by the VA for our vets.

Any action threatening a person’s health can be prosecuted as reckless endangerment. If the person dies because of that action, the charge becomes negligent homicide/involuntary manslaughter. Further, if the people responsible for the delay of delivery of the prescription drugs knew it could result in death, the charges could be increased to voluntary manslaughter/second degree murder.

We need to have our state Attorneys General, as well as our local DAs, issue a notice to DeJoy and the Board of Governors that they have one week to be in compliance with 18 USC 1701, or they will be investigated for, charged with, and prosecuted for reckless endangerment and/or manslaughter.

P.S. The letters notifying the Board and DeJoy will serve as constructive notice and justify increasing the charges from involuntary to voluntary manslaughter.

P.P.S. This could obviously be prosecuted as felonious conspiracy.

P.P.P.S. If minutes, official records, or testimony establish that slowing the mail was done at Trump's request, or with his knowledge and approval, he can be charged as a conspirator.
