House Democrats say they will investigate whether Postmaster General Louis DeJoy violated campaign finance laws by encouraging employees at his former business to contribute to Republicans and then reimbursing them. DeJoy has denied he did anything wrong.

FILE - In this Aug. 24, 2020, file photo, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy testifies during a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing on the Postal Service on Capitol Hill in Washington. President Donald Trump says he's open to an investigation of DeJoy after some of DeJoy's former employees said they felt pressured to donate to GOP candidates.

WASHINGTON — House Democrats said Tuesday they will investigate whether Postmaster General Louis DeJoy encouraged employees at his former business to contribute to Republican candidates and then reimbursed them in the guise of bonuses, a violation of campaign finance laws. Rep. Carolyn Maloney, who chairs the House Oversight Committee, said in a statement Tuesday that if the allegations are true, “DeJoy could face criminal exposure — not only for his actions in North Carolina, but also for lying to our Committee under oath.”

Maloney, a New York Democrat, urged the Postal Service Board of Governors to immediately suspend DeJoy, whom “they never should have selected in the first place.”

Lol

Crook!

There are graveyards full of folks who died to prevent this kind of bullshit from happening here.

Of course he denies it

Still waiting on a stimulus package from the house but instead they are more worried about keeping their powers over us.

JonLemire Will soon be the latest coffee boy that DJT never met.

Anything else except investigation our Congress can do?

Just cut the doj ‘s budget and start doing investigations in congress for all of thumps crooks.

If somehow this isn't against the law, it damn well should be.

Lock him up..

Fascism 101

Foolish Democrats

Trump: 'Let the investigations go. But he's a very respected man...' can only mean bad days ahead for DeJoy.

Why does Trump hire so many felons, liars and losers? Investigate these douchebags

Sounds VERY WRONG! Isn’t ‘forcing’ your employees to vote a specific candidate/party illegal? I remember our supervisor ( Lockheed) telling us he couldn’t TELL US who to vote for, but if we wanted to KEEP OUR JOBS we would vote the way HE voted!

One more bad pick by Trump Another liar & dishonest dude from the GOP I was wrong I thought he might be different. Really looks like he's not.

Do....not..... wAit

Today’s hoax

This Trump goon needs to tender his resignation effective immediately....

Just another crooked Trumper.

JonLemire Somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout. But there will be no DeJoy in Postville, Mighty Louie will be stamped out.

What about him funneling millions if taxpayers dollars into his own pocket?

Are these the same Democrats to get money from the BLM movement?

*Yawn*

KMJNOW Please.....postmaster GENITAL as we say in my household

JonLemire Certainly he's done wrong or violated the law; he's been put there by dear leader hasn't he?

'DeJoy has denied he did anything wrong.' Most criminals also assert that during their trials.

In plain sight. The President seeds fraud in mail in ballots. He then hires croney to dismantle USPS ability to handle influx of ballots. Justifies dismantling. Gets caught. Croney resigns. System dismantled, deliveries delayed, distrust by voters in ballot process, damage done.

RE: DeJoy's family owed Company Transports mail for USPS.

The FBI should already be arresting DeJoy. The long arm of the 'Barr' is holding them back. We must begin to enforce the law again. No one is above it. No one!

Slime is sticky....and it always leaves a trail.

Sounds alot worse than that Jake Tapper thing redsteeze was carrying on about the other day.

Oh goody with any kind of luck at all maybe we’ll even have ... HEARINGS!

Only the Democratic Party , and republicans ? *crickets*

if your are interested campaign finance laws violations Ilhan

Screw the Dems. They only care about the rules when it's a Republican.

realDonaldTrump maybe instead of throwing him under a bus tell him he must cooperate. TrumpMeltdown TrumpVirusDeathToll193K

Trump is fine with Dejoy going to prison because everything is transactional. He got from Dejoy what he wanted. Chaos and confusion around the upcoming election. Dejoy, like anyone else who has worked for Trump is left out to dry when the bill comes due.

If he wasn't loyal, and corrupt, Trump wouldn't have arranged for him to be in that position.

Should be a short investigation. The evidence is pretty clear

He has been disowned by Dear Leader Resignation by the end of the week predicted

A Cabinet full of criminals from the so-called 'Law & Order' prez...

Yes!!

He only hires the best people. Who end up in prison.
