What A Coincidence, USPS Chair's Other Job Is At Mitch McConnell's Super PAC

[skews13]

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's deep and longstanding ties to U.S. Postal Service Board of Governors chairman Robert Duncan are coming under heightened scrutiny after corporate paperwork filed Monday listed Duncan as a director of a major GOP super PAC closely aligned with the Kentucky Republican.

The new filing (pdf) with Virginia's State Corporation Commission—an independent regulatory agency that oversees political action committees—names Duncan as one of three directors of the Senate Leadership Fund, a massive super PAC that has spent nearly $18 million in support of Senate Republicans thus far in the 2020 election cycle.

According to the Center for Responsive Politics, the Senate Leadership Fund has recently received multi-million dollar donations from casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman, and other right-wing billionaires.

Duncan—who raised more than $400 million for the GOP during his tenure as chairman of the Republican National Committee from 2007 to 2009—was nominated to the USPS Board of Governors by President Donald Trump in 2017 confirmed by the McConnell-led Senate in August of 2018. A McConnell spokesperson told the Louisville Courier Journal last month that the GOP leader recommended Duncan to Trump.

"As a businessman, a public servant, and a dedicated mentor to young people, Mike is an outstanding choice to help oversee the world's largest postal organization," McConnell said in an April 2018 Senate hearing considering Duncan's nomination.

Is that somehow worse than:

Major US postal workers union endorses Biden for president

WASHINGTON (AP) — A major union representing U.S. postal workers has endorsed Democrat Joe Biden for president, a move that comes as President Donald Trump has acknowledged starving the postal service of money in order to make it more difficult to vote by mail in November's election.

Moscow Mitch needs to be retired by the good citizens of Kentucky. He has abused his power to the extreme; to benefit himself and an ideology which does not respect The Separation of Power. In fact this new generation of conservative Republican's are seeking to create a single party to control all three branches of government. We see how well that works for the citizens in Russia, China, N. Korea and Iran.

Pelosi does not have the skills of orator; however her skills in counting votes are exceptional. McCarthy and McConnell are two of the many Republican Pols in Congress who seek to control everything without compromise. The Speaker speaks for a homerun, but recognizes a double is acceptable.
