We are here today because my Democratic colleagues have created a conspiratorial crisis out of thin air in another attempt to dupe Americans with an election hoax. Only this time, instead of Russia, it is the United States Postal Service. Democrats are intentionally misleading people to believe that the operational changes at the Postal Service, including the removal of mailboxes and antiquated processing equipment, just started. That is a lie. Nonetheless, Postal Service officials have confirmed that these operational changes, some of which were agreed to by Democrat Members, have already been halted until after the election. In regard to the delay and delivery of mail over the last few weeks, the national number cited may well reflect delays in cities that have been under siege by anarchists. I will direct my colleagues and the American people's attention to these photos of the burned-out post office in Minneapolis. There is no way to know how many letters to loved ones were lost, or birthday cards or gifts or family heirlooms or that decoder ring that that kid had been waiting for were destroyed and will never be delivered. I am certain because of the lawlessness that the Democrats are dangerously silent about, the delivery of mail in Portland, Seattle, Chicago, New York, and Minneapolis, and other cities have been delayed. You want to talk defunding?…

I think it is an unfortunate part of FEMA's history. I can understand why there is a built-in political bias for FEMA employees in Washington because only about 6.5 percent of the vote for President in the Washington, DC. went to Trump.
