Aren't all political appointees subject to impeachment?

Why not the Post Master General?

No fucking slow ass process. Draft the articles tonight, vote them through the House tomorrow, subpoena his ass and documents NOW.

If he refuses, send the House Sargent at Arm's to arrest him and put him in a broom closet in the basement of Congress.

It's time to stop pretending that we are living in normal times.

It's time to start throwing some chin music at these fucksticks.

I've seen this DeJoy guy... seen him a million times...he acts tough and blustery, but he'd be reduced to a sniveling, sweaty, tearful crybaby in about 2 seconds.

Same with Mnuchin, Jared, the whole fucking lot of them.

Next time they appear in Congress, they shouldn't be allowed to leave.

1. I like your thinking!...justice committee needs an email...why not do the same for Barr?

2. The Constitution says "all civil officers of the United States," so yes,

but the fucking GOP Senate would have to vote to convict, and they won't.

7. I don't care what Retrumplicans in the Senate will do

They're a lost cause until January 4, 2021.

I want the screws put to this DeJoy Dipshit. Not just for the corrupt shit he's doing to the Post Office, but for every idiot born on 3RD base convinced he hit a triple, and every arrogant "academy grad" who took over one of my commands or departments and ran it into the fucking ground because they thought they were the smartest person in the room

It's for every "full of themselves", "I'm the greatest, just ask me" asspickles who come and fuck things up with their stupid fucking "maker" half-assed plan they pulled out of their ass.

3. The Constitution gives Congress the authority to impeach and remove

"The President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States" upon a determination that such officers have engaged in treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

Federal judges are subject to impeachment. Within the executive branch, any Presidentially appointed "principal officer", including a head of an agency such as a Secretary, Administrator, or Commissioner, is a "civil officer of the United States" subject to impeachment.[1] At the opposite end of the spectrum, lesser functionaries, such as federal civil service employees, do not exercise "significant authority", and are not appointed by the President or an agency head.'

9. Postmaster general isn't apointed by the president.

4. Would need 20 Republican Senators to vote guilty

in order to remove a federal official from office via a Senate impeachment trial. Its not going to happen.

8. Again, I don't care what the Retrumplican Senate will do

I want this DeJoy guy to know that in a few months, he's going to be facing fucking prison, and even if he leaves his job, the remainder of his miserable life is going to be spent with Congressional Committees so far up his ass they can see Dipshit Donnies colon.

I want him to have to sweat if what he's doing is worth ruining his life for, and then I want to make sure his life is ruined.

Why you may ask? Well, in the past 6 working days, we've gotten mail exactly once here in Virginia Beach.

I'm awaiting critical meds from the VA.

My mom in Ohio is waiting on supplies for her heart monitor.

I'm not getting my bills, or the rent from my rental property.

I was in the Navy for 29 years. I can't imagine the men and women on the ships that are lucky to get mail once or twice a month. Mom's Chocolate Chip Cookies, the letters from a loved one. Hell, I served with a guy that nearly had an orgasm when his mom said she sent him a Lebanon Bologna. It showed up perfectly and was delicious BTW.

This is why I'm pissed.

5. Traditionally, only appointees confirmed by the Senate are impeached

Probably because, normally, once a civil officer's wrongdoing reached impeachment level, the administration boots them out.

6. Postmaster Generalissimo

I like the way he thinks too. Yes get Barr too. Two crooks for the price of one. Past time to take gloves off. Words fail me!
