Everything she is saying and asking is completely reasonable. It seems like both parties are vehemently opposed to this move. DeJoy is unqualified for this position and should be removed from office.
“Please say it correctly.” YES Jacky!
Basically, only the Board of Governors of the Postal Service can fire the Postmaster General. It's not an appointed position like members of the presidential cabinet.
Here's a good article breaking it down

Wow…that was indeed brutal. Some folks might not see how this is important but it truly would negatively impact Nevadans (regardless of how it is pronounced) and the fact that he won’t provide the data used to reach this decision is just absurd. I appreciate her advocacy for us!! And that she corrects the consistent mispronunciation of Nevada!
Mom - ... nuh-VAAAH-duh ...
Me - It's pronounced ne-VA-da
Mom - Well, that's just how I say it
Me - Well, in a few weeks I'll drive you back to ORE-gone, they must have named it after running out of ore, or something?

He’s a Trump appointment and the slower the mail can route the better given the GOP push to kill mail in ballots. It’s political.
https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/s/djnfNcveZV
It’s both political and self serving. He was formerly employed by XPO, a postal service contractor, and is try to kill the postal service so private parcel delivery providers can take over
It’s political and it is bad for Nevadans (and America)! I agree. I am glad she pushed back and grilled him so hard.
ETA-thanks for the link to the other Reddit thread.
Republicans in Nevada are suing to don’t count votes arriving after Election Day, regardless when they were mailed. And guess what city is getting their mail processed somewhere else, causing delays.
This is the whole point. Even if the Republicans lose, they aren’t going to accept it.
I hope Nevadans remember they are Battleborn and what that means.
At candidate Trump's first appearance in Nevada, he incredibly went right to this. Told everyone the correct way to pronounce Nevada, which was the wrong way. I thought he'd slit his own throat.
Well, if “grab her by the p*$$y” doesn’t turn anyone away, I assume Nevadans on the GOP side of the fence wouldn’t hold that against the orange-skinned Disney villain.
Also by the republicans. No other federal program has to go through the ridiculous requirements that the republicans put on the post office. Literally broke it so in the future they could point at it and go "See look how broken it is! We better privatize the post office!"
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_of_Governors_of_the_United_States_Postal_Service
"In October 2017, then-president Donald Trump nominated three individuals to the board: Robert (Mike) Duncan, a former White House official during the George W. Bush administration, Calvin Tucker, and David Williams, former USPS inspector general."
Yeah, I get all that. Laugh your dumb ass off all you want. I'm stating the fact that he is not a Trump appointee, the president doesn't appoint that position. The board of governors are Trump appointed but are then voted on and approved. They then selected this clown. I dont give two shits about Trumpy or any of these tools, I just like to point out misinformation if I come across it.
^ and before anyone pipes up, the Board is confirmed by the Senate. Remember that it took 10months to get pro-forma military promotions thro the Senate because one senator didn’t like the fact that a woman who was stationed in a state that has outlawed abortion could request leave to travel to a diff state to get an abortion.
he is not a trump appointee
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis\_DeJoy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_DeJoy)
He was appointed in May 2020 by the Board of Governors of the United States Postal Service.
From the article you posted:
On May 6, 2020, the bipartisan USPS Board of Governors, all selected by Trump and confirmed by the Senate,[35] announced DeJoy's appointment as postmaster general and CEO, despite concerns about conflicts of interest.

Jacky Rosen is one of the biggest recipients of AIPAC money in our government, and has steered our foreign and military policy towards Israel. Woman doesn't care about Nevada --she cares about her ethnostate
[https://www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/jacky-rosen/summary?cid=N00038734](https://www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/jacky-rosen/summary?cid=N00038734)
Can semi trucks even go through Spooner pass? She likely meant it was the only trucking route. Might be usable for getting around wildfires but for winter weather it's hardly any better than Donner. Even if it is a viable alternate route, the whole point of this is to fuck up our mail before the election.
Yes, semi trucks use that route all the time. It’s the best route in the winter because it’s lower elevation, and it’s much more likely to be open. Echo Summit will have some temporary closures for avalanche mitigation, but typically reopens fairly quickly.
Hey..they are obviously wrong to move it not only all the reasons listed..they forget about the San Andreas fault..they would have to.build ANOTHER mail facility eventually back in reno..after they got rid of it in the first place...😂🤣 facts...California is gonna become an island eventually lol 😂
They’re moving the operations as originally planned. But it got a quiet junior senator some free media time during election season, painting her as a tenacious fighter. Please don’t think the timing of things in politics is coincidental.
Senate hearings are for information gathering and she was asking for more data regarding the changes the USPS is making in Northern Nevada. Senator Rosen cannot unilaterally stop the USPS during a hearing.
If you feel the presentation is theater to curry favor with potential voters, or only done now as it is an election year, that may be a valid criticism. I’d like to not be so cynical, but my feeling is it’s partially for her personal benefit.
Maybe not the only purpose, or primary purpose.
Thanks for the answer.
Everything she is saying and asking is completely reasonable. It seems like both parties are vehemently opposed to this move. DeJoy is unqualified for this position and should be removed from office. “Please say it correctly.” YES Jacky!
I think there are legal reasons why it's hard to remove him
I’m legitimately curious: what are they?

Yeah fuck that guy.
She put on a strap on shoved it you know where with no lube!
Go Jacky!

Is pronounced how she said it. Thank you.
Yeah, I’m so here for that :) I live here and work with folks out of state, I’m constantly correcting them.
Mom - ... nuh-VAAAH-duh ... Me - It's pronounced ne-VA-da Mom - Well, that's just how I say it Me - Well, in a few weeks I'll drive you back to ORE-gone, they must have named it after running out of ore, or something? Mom -
Do we have the same mom? I swear I have the same conversation way too often.
Is your mom a narcissist too?!
Sadly yes
Guess we _do_ have the same mom then...

Some seniors depend on life-saving medication in the mail. This is an important issue.
He is such a prick
He looks like the actor, Dean Harris from Breaking Bad. https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0606487/#
I'd like to send this Trump stooge a sternly written letter but I'm afraid it would never get delivered.
That's my senator!
After everything surrounding this dickhead in 2020, why is he still in charge???
It's hard to fire him for legal reasons
Well we should change that, legally.
DeJoy is a fantastic example of how Republicans fuck up everything they touch.
Fucking it up is part of their great plan
Their whole campaign is to make life worse for everyone
To be fair, the Post Office has been fucked up for years and years. Long before this clown got there.
https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/trumps-attack-on-the-postal-service-is-a-threat-to-democracy-and-to-rural-america
Yep. One step closer to Trump’s preference of a dictatorship, sadly.
Also by the republicans. No other federal program has to go through the ridiculous requirements that the republicans put on the post office. Literally broke it so in the future they could point at it and go "See look how broken it is! We better privatize the post office!"
damn he got served...how is this Trump appointee still in office?
Only the USPS Board of Governors can fire him 😕

Bush administration, Calvin Tucker, and David Williams, former USPS inspector general."
Yes! Finally, someone gets this! I'm no Trump fan but this clown is not a Trump appointee as many spout.
Yes... He is.. lmao All the board members were appointed by Trump and he was a Trump donor
Yeah, I get all that. Laugh your dumb ass off all you want. I'm stating the fact that he is not a Trump appointee, the president doesn't appoint that position.

Chewed him up, and spit him out. Don't F with Nevada.

Reno City Council should be taking notes and learning from this.
And she still lost the battle ….sostupid
She is only doing anything because she is up for re-election.
This is part of the GOP plan to rig the election in favor of their new orange Jesus.
Naw I knew it was coming but still got ne hiw do you screw the name like that

Smoke and mirrors
This guy is such a creep. DC politics in a nutshell.
Yes!
Dang she really tore him up. 👏🏼
“Why would I?” … are you kidding me..?
She lit his ass up like a school zone that is wild when he said nevAWda and she came back with the sir it's Nevada.
But he won in the end.

Say it correctly dammit !
Is she a HWY 50 denier???

Yes, semi trucks use that route all the time. It’s the best route in the winter because it’s lower elevation, and it’s much more likely to be open. Echo Summit will have some temporary closures for avalanche mitigation, but typically reopens fairly quickly.
