Ummmmmm...no.
The US president has limited authority over the USPS.
'As the governing body of the Postal Service, the 11-member Board of
Governors has responsibilities comparable to the board of directors of a
publicly held corporation. The Board includes nine Governors appointed
by the President of the United States with the advice and consent of the
Senate. The other two members are the Postmaster General and the Deputy
Postmaster General. The Governors appoint the Postmaster General, who
serves at the pleasure of the Board without a specific term of office.
The Governors, together with the Postmaster General, appoint the Deputy
Postmaster General. The Chairman and Vice Chairman are elected each
calendar year, and in February 2009, Carolyn Lewis Gallagher was elected
Chairman, and Louis J. Giuliano was elected Vice Chairman.'

It wasn't the Biden White House that chose that contractor, doofus:
'Description
The U.S. Postal Service awarded a 10-year contract to Oshkosh, WI, based
Oshkosh Defense, LLC to manufacture a new generation of U.S.-built
postal delivery vehicles.'

Actually, no:
'The Governors appoint the Postmaster General, who serves at the
pleasure of the Board without a specific term of office.'

It's such a shame that you know so little about your own government.
