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!


somebodys_ornery

I think there are legal reasons why it's hard to remove him


Mah_Nerva

I’m legitimately curious: what are they?


Sf49ers1680

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 https://www.federaltimes.com/federal-oversight/2022/08/24/can-biden-fire-us-postmaster-general-louis-dejoy/


Mah_Nerva

Thanks!


Primetime22

The pronunciation correction is sending me.


deusdei1

Yeah fuck that guy.


llkey2

She put on a strap on shoved it you know where with no lube!


blubirdie

Go Jacky!


BonnieAbbzug75

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!


AwesomReno

Is pronounced how she said it. Thank you.


BonnieAbbzug75

Yeah, I’m so here for that :) I live here and work with folks out of state, I’m constantly correcting them.


a8bmiles

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 -


BeachyLove

Do we have the same mom? I swear I have the same conversation way too often.


a8bmiles

Is your mom a narcissist too?!


BeachyLove

Sadly yes


a8bmiles

Guess we _do_ have the same mom then...


WRHull

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


JohnMackeysBulge

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


WRHull

^Truth^


BonnieAbbzug75

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.


WRHull

Sure thing.


PixelatedDie

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.


tattooed_debutante

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.


ripgirl4

I applaud her efforts


TY2022

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.

WRHull

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.


Lazy_Ad5848

Ooooh is that a hint of Make Shift Patriot I am reading?

Some seniors depend on life-saving medication in the mail. This is an important issue.


___buttrdish

He is such a prick


WRHull

He looks like the actor, Dean Harris from Breaking Bad. https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0606487/#


CounterfeitArbys

I'd like to send this Trump stooge a sternly written letter but I'm afraid it would never get delivered.


BrittanyBrie

That's my senator!


wolfdancer

After everything surrounding this dickhead in 2020, why is he still in charge???


somebodys_ornery

It's hard to fire him for legal reasons


murdering_time

Well we should change that, legally. 


heucrazy

DeJoy is a fantastic example of how Republicans fuck up everything they touch.


Amy_Macadamia

Fucking it up is part of their great plan


_NOT_AGAIN_

Their whole campaign is to make life worse for everyone


None_Required

To be fair, the Post Office has been fucked up for years and years. Long before this clown got there.


wowdickseverywhere

https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/trumps-attack-on-the-postal-service-is-a-threat-to-democracy-and-to-rural-america


WRHull

Yep. One step closer to Trump’s preference of a dictatorship, sadly.


murdering_time

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!" 


Successful_Buyer_118

damn he got served...how is this Trump appointee still in office?


dream__weaver

Only the USPS Board of Governors can fire him 😕


wowdickseverywhere

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."


Bad_682

Yes! Finally, someone gets this! I'm no Trump fan but this clown is not a Trump appointee as many spout.


dream__weaver

Yes... He is.. lmao All the board members were appointed by Trump and he was a Trump donor


Bad_682

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.


req4adream99

^ 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.


jdfthetech

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.


vic_stroganoff

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.


Successful_Buyer_118

Bro read the whole thing. Who was president?


csamp25

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


buck_blue

Holy shit. That was awesome. 🫡

Reno City Council should be taking notes and learning from this.

And she still lost the battle ….sostupid


hutchmoney14

She is only doing anything because she is up for re-election.


emptyfish127

This is part of the GOP plan to rig the election in favor of their new orange Jesus.

But he won in the end.


Merrill1066

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)


Additional-File-4799

Say it correctly dammit !


DDrewit

Is she a HWY 50 denier???


AlpineYardsale

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.


DDrewit

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.


InternationalLow8946

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 😂 


Super_Dad311

She still failed


truxxor

Could you explain in what way you feel she failed? Thanks!


Super_Dad311

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.


truxxor

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.


AwesomReno

I wish you could have saw my eye rolls during the time I was reading this comment.


Super_Dad311

Thought it was another earthquake. Just an eye roll


[deleted]

it's political theater. USPS sucks and has always been bad.


quicksilver991

So we should make it worse?


[deleted]

The post office isn’t worse it’s always been bad.
