U.S. Postal Service employees used agency credit cards to pay for gambling sprees

Some of Obama’s U.S. Postal Service union employees are now using agency credit cards to pay for gambling sprees, personal travel and even bowling. This is yet another ‘smidgen’ of corruption going on in the Obama regime that the Holder Department of (in)Justice just sits back and let happen. The USPS has over 500,000 employees, obviously not all are involved. The biggest crime here isn’t just a few bad apples at the USPS using our tax dollars on gambling. The crime is that the Eric Holder DOJ just sits back, twiddle their thumbs and does nothing about it.

For those wondering about the picture, it’s supposedly from a bowling alley in Florida.

One manager used her card to withdraw $32,000 in cash to gamble, according to Freedom of Information Act documents obtained by the Examiner. Closed investigations by the USPS inspector general found the manager also used her card to rent cars for personal use, charging the agency a total of $45,000 in personal expenses. The employee repaid the money and took an early retirement offer.

A second employee also withdrew $2,400 from her agency card to gamble. She too repaid the debt after initially claiming she used her government card accidentally. She has since been fired.

Another USPS worker used his card to pay for $1,700 in personal hotel stays and his son’s bowling games, the Examiner reported. The employee blamed his malfeasance on the financial strain his divorce was placing on him.

One postal employee — a postmaster in North Carolina — took $8,500 in salary and travel advances to pay for fixes to her truck. The employee initially claimed to have paid USPS back but later admitted she submitted bad checks.
