 Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, a GOP mega-donor whose operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service have led to allegations that he is intentionally sabotaging mail-in voting, reimbursed employees from whom he solicited political donations, according to a Washington Post report.

 The Post report suggests his status as a bundler may have been built on illegal fundraising practices, with former employees of New Breed Logistics, DeJoy’s former business, alleging he “pressured” them to make political contributions to GOP candidates which were later “reimbursed” through bonuses.

The Post found a pattern of New Breed employees making uniform donations to candidates, often on the same day, with donations from employees dwindling after DeJoy’s departure in 2015 and one former employees telling the Post they “felt little choice” but to donate due to DeJoy’s “heavy-handed demeanor” and reputation for angering easily.
