Wow, it is 8:45 a.m., on a Friday and we've had so much news.
And USPS's board of governors is about to meet in 15 minutes, and I have a feeling things could get feisty.
And we have another USPS story that will drop today, and I think lots of folks will read.
Buckle up.
In the BoG meeting, both Chair Ron Bloom and DeJoy open by saying the board "may not always agree on everything."
Which has gotta make you wonder -- what's coming up in this meeting?
Oh man, here we go. Ron Stroman (D) is giving a statement OPPOSING DeJoy's 10-year plan.
This is BIG. This NEVER happens at board of governors meetings. The board HATES exposing public fissures. This a massive fault line.
STROMAN on DeJoy's plan: "Strategically-ill conceived, creates dangerous risks that are not justified by the relatively low financial return, and doesn’t meet our responsibility as an essential part of America’s critical infrastructure."
Wow.
Now HAJJAR, after long preamble, takes aim at the planned mail slowdowns.
Holy cow.
"I ask why this change needs to be implemented now. Why not wait until management implements the impressively innovative changes in the rest of the [Delivering for America] plan?"
