donald trump and louis d dejoy e saying, you can't vote by mail. amy: protests also took place sunday outside the greensboro, north carolina, residence of louis dejoy. the u.s. death toll from the coronavivirus has totopped 170,. public health officials are expressing alarm as the number of daily covid-19 tests across the united states has dropped 17% since mid-july, making it harder for states to track the outbreak. thehe centers for d disease control's wararning infection rates are "steadily increasing in children.n." this comes as millions of children prepare to return to school. in arizona, , one school distrit outside of phoenix has canceled classes for a week after teachers threatened to stage a sick-out. new data is coming to light about how the pandemic is disproportionately impacting people of color. according to the cdc, 14,000 pregnant women have tested positive since january. nearly half of them have been latina mothers. a new study by the university of pennsylvania found black and latina women are five times more likely to be infected

but then there's one other guy on the list, louis dejoy. he, alongside michael cohen and elliott broidy and steve wynn, was the guy announced in that press release. louis dejoy is now trump's appointee as postmaster general, the guy who trump has installed to take over the post office as the president embarks on an admitted overt campaign to mess up the mail, to mess up the post office so it can't handle the ballots that are going to be mailed in for the election. >> they need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots. if we don't make a deal, that means they don't get the money. that means they can't have universal mail-in voting. they just can't have it. >> the president appointed this guy, louis dejoy, republican fund-raiser with no experience in postal anything other than him being invested heavily in companies that compete against the post office, and so he would therefore personally financially benefit if the post office fails under his leadership. president trump ins

joe louis is willing to accept it. ray robinson came from a different newer, , era, and he wasn't willing to accept it. joe louis could not keep the notion of control of sugar ray robinson. he was more -- he was more prone to react very quickly if his pride was insulted. >> host: that's an interesting common thread of all groundbreaking political african-american athletes is that they tend to not come from the south of the united states, or they tend to be refugees from the south. jackie robinson went from georgia to pasadena, california, or curt flood who came from oakland, california. publishers talk with someone about that the other day about the way that when marvin miller was looking for someone to challenge the reserve clause he was looking for an african-american athlete who was not from the south but who was influenced by the broader tenor of the times. it seems sugar ray robinson was very influenced by what it meant to live in harlem at that time. and harlem is in many ways a character in the story and people

protesters worried about louis dejoy protesters worried about louis de joy public changes protestersoy public changes will hamper mail—in voting during the 2020 presidential election. voting by mail is especially important this year. many americans will want to avoid busy polling stations to cut down on the risk of catching the coronavirus. president trump is not a fan of voting by mail. he has warned of potential voter fraud, without proof, and he says he is blocking billions of dollars of additionalfunding for blocking billions of dollars of additional funding for the postal service which ever cracks want to deliver a fair election. —— democrats. cracks want to deliver a fair election. -- democrats. you are going to have a catastrophic situation with universal mail—in votes. situation with universal mail-in votes. he has said... members of the democratic party accused the president of trying to suppress votes. he says he wants to slow down the mail to hurt the elections and make people doubt the results of the election. maybe he is worried he is going to lose, it doesn't matter. 0u

louis, the health commissioner lockdowns st. louis because it was in advance of the spanish flu coming there. the spanish flu was in boston, he saw the spanish flu coming, he stopped street car traffic. now, he didn't have plans to deal with or anything like what we have to deal with today and by the time we started the lockdowns here, already covid-19 was everywhere and strangled our economy and caused great physical damage and all kinds of medical damage that we haven't even thought of yet. so now vice president biden my presidential candidate biden is talking about the lockdowns? let's look at the state of maine tonight, a state that is near and dear to your hardware your producer just closed on a beautiful house that he wants to use where there were five new cases of covid-19 over the last 24 hours. five new cases. physical distancing is built into the environment there where people are wearing masks and are washing their hands. five cases. we are going to lock down main? going to lock down new york again when we've come out

so clearly, louis dejoy has messed with the wrong community. it has obviously touched a nerve, and they got caught red-handed, as leader rep. hoyer: says. so i am glad they are backing off making these changes. but you will forgive me for being a little bit skeptical. we are still going to return to washington on saturday. we are still going to pass this legislation. we are still going to send it over to the senate. and if louis dejoy and donald trump are serious about protecting the postal service, they will give this blessing to this legislation and donald trump will sign it into law when it passes the senate. so this is what we need to do. we need to protect the postal service. i am delighted that you guys are shining a bright spotlight on this. and we are going to do it. so thank you very much. rep. hoyer: i want to thank all my colleagues for coming and i want to thank all of you for coming. i want to thank ms. taylor for being here, as well. on behalf of all of us, for all and some of already said that, for all of those who serve our post

he's put louis dejoy in a bad situation as well because, you know, louis dejoy said in the senate hearing the other day that these were long-standing processes for changing the postal service to make it more efficient over time and to curb some of the financial losses that it suffered, but when the president lays over that his own public statements that the $25 billion democrats wanted to add that he can withhold that money, that they wouldn't be able to process the mail-in balloting just taints everything that dejoy is trying to do. in addition to trying to claim that the drop boxes were not secure and safe which, of course, history has shown that they are, many states have been routinely using them for years, the question is how much additional use they get this year, but president even cited fear of covid, the pandemic that he has failed to control as suggesting they are not safe, saying they are not covid sanitized. that real was an extraordinary statement by the president and, of course, twitter has -- has flagged that tweet. >> and i had a republican member of that committee just a

not something louis flaunts, just something he does. throughout his professional career, louis dejoy has garnered a reputation as a genius in the logistical innovation and supply chain field. as the ceo of new breed logistics, he took a broken trucking company from new york to north carolina and transformed it into a prominent u.s. provider in contract logistics, creating close to 9,000 jobs. maybe that's why he was unanimously appointed to the position by the usps bipartisan board of governors. mr. dejoy has been on the job about two months. but he's being blamed for implementing reforms congress has passed. for example, back in 2006, it wasn't mr. tdejoy who passed th enhancement act, it was congress. the leading sponsor on this bill, well he's the one with the biggest picture in the room, former chair of this committee, henry waxman. today, mr. dejoy will be viciously attacked with questions and false accusations, one member even suggesting impeachment. that's original. how sad is it when the cancel culture has reached the halls of c

democrats have accused louis dejoy of implementing changes to slow down mail delivery to help donald trump undermine the integrity of the election. the "washington post" reports louis dejoy is in frequent contact with top republican party officials and met with the president in the oval office last week. why is that? why is the head of the postal service, the postmaster general, why does he have to be in the president's office? today we learned the postal service inspector general is investigating louis dejoy and his controversial policy changes and whether he violated federal ethics rules. tonight a criminal referral was made to the new jersey attorney general to impanel a grand jury to look at electoral subversion by donald trump, louis dejoy, and other possible trump administration officials. joining me now, the democratic congressman of new jersey. congressman, good to see you. thank you for being with us. what do you think is going on in the postal service? we're using all sorts of words that i think are unusual because there is no way that louis dejoy could have not guessed tha
