During his testimony, DeJoy was asked by Rep. Jim Cooper (D-Tenn.) if he had repaid executives for making donations to the Trump campaign. “That’s an outrageous claim, sir, and I resent it. . . . The answer is no,” DeJoy responded angrily.

Monty Hagler, a spokesman for DeJoy, denied that the Postmaster General was aware that any of his former employees had felt pressured to make political donations toward Republican candidates, according to the Post.

If you’re gonna lie, at least make it believable.

Well from recent history I say nothing will happen.

This is not a violent crime, unless you are Poor, Black, Brown, Sick and, or, in need of goverment assistance or, in need of a functional government period.

Wow, he bribed his director of HR to make campaign contributions. What a fucking idiot. He might as well have given the HR guy a video of him feeling up underage girls. “Hey, be careful with that, ok? If it gets out, I would be in a lot of trouble.”
Trump attracts not only the unusually bad, but the unusually stupid.

He should have stopped with “That’s an outrageous claim, sir, and I resent it”. That would have left him on safe ground, but “the answer is no”, is going to cost him.

I’m tired of hearing about crime in the streets. It’s time to prosecute crime in the executive suites all over the country. If the little guys are prosecuted for buying and selling drugs, the Wall St fat cats need to be prosecuted for buying and selling elections. Enough already! If Dems. won’t prosecute when they return to power, it will be a disgrace.

"The Post notes that their own analysis ” … found a pattern of extensive donations by New Breed employees to Republican candidates, with the same amount often given by multiple people on the same day. Between 2000 and 2014, 124 individuals who worked for the company together gave more than $1 million to federal and state GOP candidates. Many had not previously made political donations, and have not made any since leaving the company, public records show. During the same period, nine employees gave a combined $700 to Democrats.”

In black and white.

Are my eyes deceiving me?

a move that would be considered unlawful. Reimbursing employees for political contributions is a violation of North Carolina and federal election laws.

No wishy washy “some suggest this is unlawful” or similar terminology?
