Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, a major Trump donor and fundraiser, is out with a statement expressing regret after The Washington Post published a bombshell report that when he was CEO of New Breed Logistics he reimbursed employees for making donations to Republican candidates, a practice that is illegal.
In his very specific statement DeJoys personal spokesperson, Monty Hagler, does not fully deny he engaged in the illegal practice.

DeJoy is already under fire for his attempts to dismantle the U.S. Postal Services operations, including the removal of hundreds of mail boxes, and the removal of what would be hundreds of high-speed mail sorting machines, as well as the elimination of overtime all barely months before the election.
Last week the House of Representatives subpoenaed DeJoy after he refused to produce requested documents, ignoring deadlines to do so. In a statement he said he was surprised and confused.
