This is a tale of a killer,
Though not in the usual sense.
Although he's not killing people,
The scale of his crime is immense.
This particular killer
Is one who is out to destroy
The U.S. Postal Service.
His name is Louis DeJoy.
Appointed by Donald J. Trump
As a postmaster general thug,
DeJoy is wrecking a system
So that he could pull the plug.
When you are one of Trump's donors,
Competency doesn't matter
As much as loyalty does,
For Trump prefers the latter.
Despite his conflicts of interest,
DeJoy got this postal position.
The man has invested millions
In post office competition.
He has disassembled
Mail-sorting machines.
His goal: slow down the service
By any available means.
If his efforts continue,
You will find greater success
Having a letter delivered
Faster by pony express.
Morale among workers is low.
Of course, that's no surprise,
As working conditions grow worse
And workplace injuries rise.
Having this killer run loose
Is something that we can't afford.
Unfortunately, his removal
Is up to a postal board.
Now DeJoy is under
Investigation. Why?
An alleged straw donor scheme.
Good luck to the FBI!
Perhaps that's what it will take
To give the guy the hook.
In the meantime, it seems
As though we'll be stuck with the crook.
When his removal will happen,
So far we can't tell.
Let's just hope for the day
That we can bid him farewell.
Oh, what a glorious day
When we can bid him farewell!
