during the first trump administration Dejoy, a man with huge business conflicts of interest, was appointed post master general in order to disrupt and get rid of the USPS in order to privatize it. He has done a remarkable job of making it ineffective and incompetent. Until then I have never had a package disappear or get stuck somewhere in the delivery. Now it seems almost ever package takes muck longer and I have had 5 that the sender has had to replace. One package went from about 2 hours from my home eventually to anchorage alaska (I received an out for delivery notice on the tracking despite living in California). That took about a week and then another week to finally return to california and get to me.
