Tense Congressional Hearing: Postmaster General Covers Ears Amid GOP Criticism
A heated congressional hearing saw Georgia Republican Rep. Rich McCormick clash with Postmaster General Louis DeJoy over the USPS's performance, leading to a dramatic moment where DeJoy covered his ears in mockery. McCormick criticized DeJoy's self-assessed 'A grade' for his tenure, citing the USPS's $10 billion loss in 2024. DeJoy defended his efforts to modernize the agency, while some lawmakers suggested the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency could help address the USPS's financial issues.
