Beyond That
Write to the USPS Board of Governors, they have the right to dismiss the Postmaster General at will and need some convincing to do so. Give it to them.
Few Notes Beforehand:
Please personalize your subject line and message in some small way. We want to be heard as individuals and not a spam bot, and also it is more difficult for them to create an auto block around.
Please forwards/share as much as possible
Please sign off with your personal info (concerned citizen part is optional), again we want to be taken seriously as citizens.
The references are there for you, but feel free to include if you feel it improves the message.
I searched as best I could to confirm these emails online. Apparently they do not have govt emails posted. Those with names and company domains were easier to confirm. If anyone has a correction or an official address please share.

Message: Subject - Save the Integrity of the USPS - Dismiss Louis Dejoy
Members of the USPS Board of Governors,
I write to you demanding that your body immediately dismiss Postmaster General Louis Dejoy for his gross and intentional mismanagement of the USPS.
He has violated his oath of office and federal law by intentionally disrupting the operations of the USPS in order to deprive the American public of their right to vote.
The Postal Service’s mission is to "provide the nation with reliable, affordable, universal mail service". As a concerned American citizen I demand that you uphold the integrity of the USPS as an American institution and end the naked political meddling by a corrupt Postmaster General and avoid being complicit in the committal of the following federal crimes
18 U.S. Code § 1701.Obstruction of mails generally Whoever knowingly and willfully obstructs or retards the passage of the mail, or any carrier or conveyance carrying the mail, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.
-A concerned American citizen

An account created in February with nothing but anti-trump posts. I’m a Dem and this posts stinks of propaganda
GrossIncandescence
Whether or not the USPS is being sabotaged, this random pic of trucks being towed tells me approximately nothing. Trucks get towed sometimes
pflugerville
You see USPS trucks being taken away. I see a mailman doing double duty.
lonekthx
These look like the new Mercedes vans that offices are starting to get. More likely a drop off than a tow away.

The USPS owns over 200,000 delivery vehicles (this class, under 3 ton.) They probably have hundreds towed every day, somewhere. >

Without context, this photo is tinfoil hat level conspiracy.

Vehicle get moved around a lot like this. We are required to update mileage use daily for all postal vehicles. If not being used enough 1/
Deliver619
They are sent to other offices where they are needed. Every route has its own vehicle.
Theegobidesert
Tow trucks take at least 2 mailtrucks from my office every single morning for routine stuff
puddinhead2U
Its already been debunked
ComicWorks
(Cont) Contract is two tow them on a carrier (2 at a time) and at night when there is no traffic.
shutthefrontdoor
Lol, OMG I work at a Ram dealer and this is exactly how we pick up USPS truck to bring to service and drop off ones we've repaired. Chill!
MrAsianPersuasion
Everyone assuming the worst. Not saying that the worst DOESNT HAPPEN, but ill say again, exaggeration and assumptions dont help any argument
ComicWorks
As someone who is familiar with towing contracts. The USPS contract pays worse then auto clubs. The best way to make money at that (next)

Not the main point, but as a taxpayer, I’m fucking livid for the wanton destruction of multi millions in equip for no reason. 1/

Uuuummm there are a lot of assumptions made in this post.

They're brand new. Probably being delivered. Ask these "fake" stories are making the real stories look fake. Stop!

Can we investigate feinstein now for selling off post offices through her husbands company, which made over 300 mil off the deals.

You fool! Trump doesn't exist. It's the aliens making there move. The only thing in their way is the USPS
CT1space3DX
This just doesn't check out. I suspect this is a photo of new trucks being delivered.
ballsoutflyer
If they were being delivered, they would be on an 18 wheeler.
BuckyMcDonuts
Or taken to be repaired. It happens all the time.
BannedbyastupidMod
Right? Like all these post boxes just being taken away, probably all being repaired, at the same time.
strideo
Yeah. Even though there's some genuine fuckery at hand we can't assume every photo of postal stuff being relocated is nefarious. Go vote.
GenStrike
Suppose Trump wins in November. Will you accept the results? How will you determine whether they were legitimate or not?

Release the the license plate numbers of the tow trucks and the release the names of the businesses who took the contracts.

There is no Sarno's Pizza on Prospect Ave in Los Angeles. That is all you need to know to evaluate the truth of this outrage-generating lie.

It's a screen cap from Google, address in the top left. The URL is in the next comment down because it was too long to fit.
Harryteeters
How do we know its not a broken USPS truck?
SquirrelHumps
Exactly. Context.
CoarseAndSalty
Yes, maybe USPS trucks are breaking down suddenly in blue states and very new looking mail boxes are requiring replacements but for some
CoarseAndSalty
reason not being replaced at this time. And it's not at all an indelicate time for USPS to be making these decisions.
birdoe
The photo is pretty irrelevant. USPS and Trump have both verified that there is on-going effort to hobble the USPS.
somethingawesomeandgreat
If photo is not true, people think that the whole thing is a lie.
twuck
It's not a USPS tow truck. USPS vehicle maintenance techs are also unionized and they do all of the moving as well.
sillyowo
I was watching protest live stream in Portland the other night and they ran up on the same thing three news trucks on two different trucks
sillyowo
Mail trucks* but they were also in the dead of night and also looked brand new I guess mail trucks are just breaking down everywhere
BlueBabyKing
Trucks*
Poprocket77
Shhhh. You're killing the vibe.

Hiw many trucks are there in LA? 10,000? Gonna need a bigger tow truck...

Where do you live where your trucks gets serviced so often? I'm jelly
wyatt8740
Can second this, but it happens at the post office near me around 1 AM instead. I work next to a post office @ restaurant that's open then.
nopenopenopenothanks
This happens in Baltimore too. I used to park in the garage next to the facility. Again not saying that’s the case here, but could be.
BananaHannah7991
I was going to say, my mailman just got one of these. I’m all about supporting USPS but let’s be careful.
SteelStash
Because its the federal government. If it was broken, it would sit in the parking lot for 10 yrs while someone figured out how to turn it in
Arrowheadx1
Don't think, panic. Panic now!
KartFnocker
better to panic a bit and find out it was nothing than ignore it all and whoops, they successfully stole the election.
AaronPaulSturtevant
yeah, ignore the rest of the blatantly corrupt stuff going on at the USPS because this picture might be nothing.
pdhackley
VOMA (Vehicle Operations for USPS) just servicing Promasters.
Euchre
That doesn't look like the USPS tow trucks I'm used to seeing. (Yes, the USPS has its own tow trucks.)
pdhackley
Midwest uses contract companies to tow.
Euchre
Better tell USPS in Indiana that. I see them regularly.
Fuckimgurcunts
Those Ram Promasters are the biggest pieces of shit. I've towed them for engines falling out with 8 000 miles for christ's sake.
welluhwhatdoyouwantmetosay
Yeah, they weren't supposed to be mail trucks. They are supplementary vehicles until the new contract comes through.
Fuckimgurcunts
How does a fucking engine fall out? The engine mounting brackets had bolts whose nuts disappeared...
Fuckimgurcunts
Also had them have transmissions fall out, and had a million of them high centered and wrecked in a ton of goofy ways
postalval
happened to me, mechanics replaced timing chain, removed engine to do so, overtorqued mounting bolts, hit bump, bolts snap!
postalval
I work for Royal Mail, same shit different country
Fuckimgurcunts
Aye but multiple times on brand new vans?
cepacolusmaximus
What's interesting here is the current administration is so blatantly corrupt that just seeing a mail truck getting towed raises these ?s
ilsalta
And rightfully so. They are actively sabotaging the USPS in order to rig the elections. They’ve lost the right to benefit of the doubt.
OnansRightHand
Not really the point. There's plenty of evidence of the efforts to disrupt the election by distorting the USPS. Don't get distracted.
kittybuttwiggle
OP made it the point by using this photo to head up the post and catch people's attention. This is why you shouldn't BS for a good cause.
Euchre
USPS has its own tow trucks.
sennitt
Not where I live, local tow guy picks up thier broke down vehicles
OvergrownDwarf
Except i can come up with some shit like their tow truck wasn't available in that region or driver got covid n subcontracted.basically ...
OvergrownDwarf
I can keep lieing for benefit of doubt on every counter argument unless OP post source and context of the actual picture
Peachos
Typically towing 2 of them suggests otherwise..
mikeatike
Maybe they... uhh... Crashed into each other? Even though they don't have any body damage
mmmorgan228888
Postal service worker here...they put two or more all the time to take them to different offices after repair. Normally early morning hours
BriefausdemGeist
Not necessarily. They could legitimately need servicing.
CorrectMostOfTheTime
They might be replacements this is just a picture of a tow truck at a stop light we dont know where it is going or came from
GerberLegalTeam
How does it sigg at that? Given the information available?
Harryteeters
Yeah I mean I dunno. Guess I need more context
76000BatteryLlamas
It's impossible for 2 mail trucks to need repair at the same time and it's illogical to have them repaired at night when they are not in use
stupidandre
I think ya need a dictionary mate, ya might need to look up what impossible means
DougDeNasty
I worked in a bus yard where we would have a dozen buses down at the same time. They worked on them at night to avoid service disruption.
NCRMadness50
That's the point.
postalval
fleet logistics say otherwise, multiple vehicles will breakdown/crash every week, the space and parts to repair are not alway available 1/
postalval
/2 you move the vehicles when the towing company has a truck, they transport to the regional repair shop when parts/space become available
Ark161
Think about how many trucks ups has... how many do you think might hit oil change within range of each other? Stop being goofy
NCRMadness50
He was being sarcastic. That scenario he wrote down was extremely common and everyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows it
Ark161
The scary thing is you really can’t tell anymore.... people have gotten that crazy
mmmorgan228888
Ridiculous statement. We have the largest fleet of vehicles in the USA. They do this all the time. Early morning while they are not in use.
Mewmus
because that doesn't fit the narrative
commanderpanic
So.. instead.. panic?! I agree with you on this thou.
redexodus
Damaging our cause through misinformation, these things are more tricky than they seem.
CoarseAndSalty
Well Trump set the narrative when he said he's shutting down USPS, this photo and hundreds more like it fit the narrative perfectly.
Mewmus
He didnt say anything of the sort. He just didnt want to give them EXTRA money
CoarseAndSalty
Then why did he appoint a man who no administrative experience in package delivery and massive conflicts of interest who he's not stopping
CoarseAndSalty
obliterating the service?
jennym123
Yeah. I think you're right. Trump may be dismantling the USPS but we shouldn't succumb to panic.
Cobb08
USPS has been horrible. Why all the outrage now? This has been going on for 20 years
CoarseAndSalty
Yet suddenly thousands of small businesses are screwed out of affordable shipping options? Seems like USPS was doing something very well.
jennym123
Outside of the long lines I legit have never had a problem with USPS.
drduffer
Lived by a USPS repair facility for 5 years. They move them at night because that’s when they’re NOT IN USE! They need tune ups and stuff!
pleaseconsiderthatImightbejoking
\A lot of tune ups and stuff. The trucks we use are from the 1970's\
wyatt8740
you mean 80's, unless you have jeeps still. Grumman LLV was produced in late 80's and early 90's.
Counterfit
The ones pictured aren't

They look brand new, how do we know they aren’t being dropped off either?

Think about what we do know, that our president is scamming us right now, let’s do something about it.
MrKibbs
I had a 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 in my shop for rear brakes. Truck looked brand new, but it had 500K miles on it. maybe they are getting serviced
ilsalta
Considering the other shenanigans going on, the burden of proof is against this being a maintenance operation.
Shunned4Puns
I think that costs money, that they don't have rn?

Let’s see. They are removing street drop boxes, removing sorting machines, removing employees.... but the trucks are broken?
stickmanprime
It's possible, sure.
FearTheSquirrels
Possibly: https://about.usps.com/news/statements/011516.htm Worth seeing if a pattern is emerging though beyond normal repairs
Fuckimgurcunts
Those vans are pieces of shit. I commented about towing them for engines falling out earlier
DrVinnyBoomBotch
Nope. No facts here. /s ?????? Username? Hmmmm. Nothing positive there. [LCD of speech. Self fulfilling?] ... Source of earlier comments?

Dont worry mate you'll pull through
Jepalaudsadsin
I'd like to have the facts and not just assume.
mrmayortheiv
Then let's have an investigation? That's literally what OP's encouraging people ask for...
Jepalaudsadsin
Never said they didn't. The comment I replied to however, is just assuming the worst without any facts.
therealzombiejesus
I said the same thing about the sorting equipment on a different post and got downvoted to hell. Smh
mmmorgan228888
Your mean the equipment that has sat dormant for years and taking up valuable space for newer faster equipment?
CoarseAndSalty
And the newer faster equipment? Is that waiting outside to be installed?
mmmorgan228888
Ok here we go.The crossfire (new tech) at 100k per hour or the DBCSs (current) at 35k per hour? The USPS has lived in the Stone Age too long
CoarseAndSalty
So you're saying that in the midst of a massive financial crisis, a government office that is in threat of shut-down purcahsed 671 mail
mmmorgan228888
You wanna talk about the vehicles next and how old those are at 8 mpg? And we have some catching on fire almost weekly now?
CoarseAndSalty
Those aren't 70-year-old GM LLVs like the ones that have caught fire. That looks like a Ram ProMaster, circa 2013 or later, typically 21 MPG
