Postal Service signs cost-cutting deal with DOGE

(The Hill) The United States Postal Service said it has signed a deal with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut costs at the agency.

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy told congressional leaders in a letter that he had signed an agreement with Elon Musk’s DOGE to cut jobs and spending at the agency that has long since lost money.

DeJoy said the organization has spent the last four years transforming from a “battered government bureaucracy” that experienced financial losses into a higher quality service, but it is still not achieving its goals.

It is a rag that gave a platform to John Solomon to spread the Big Lie.
