00:01:30.580 covert operations program or icop which is perfect for the postal service isn't it icop who are you
00:01:39.720 icop uh it is uh it has not previously been made public and involves analysts combing through
00:01:48.400 social media sites looking for inflammatory postings and then sharing those posts with government agencies
00:01:55.700 icop specifically tracks protests around the country hey stew do you remember when we had the

00:02:39.800 law enforcement sensitive and it showed that analysts with icop the internet the u.s postal service

00:02:56.040 occurring internationally and domestically on march 20th 2021 locations and times have been identified
00:03:04.280 for these protests which are being distributed online across multiple social media platforms to include
00:03:10.460 right-wing leaning parlor and telegram accounts a nationwide protest dubbed the worldwide rally for freedom
00:03:18.700 and democracy was set to take place on march 20th intended to signify displeasure with a variety of issues including
00:03:25.540 coronavirus lockdowns quoting the report from icop parlor users have commented about their intent to use the
00:03:35.820 rallies to engage in violence the bulletin explained image three on the right is a screenshot from parlor
00:03:43.400 indicating two users discussing the event as an opportunity to engage in a fight and to do some serious damage
00:03:52.360 so we had two users on parlor saying that they were going to use this opportunity of this rally
00:04:01.580 to do some damage do you understand what that means america you had two users on parlor
00:04:11.920 it also contained screenshots about protests and include specific names of individuals such as

00:04:26.800 threats stemming from scheduled protests and will disseminate intelligence updates as needed icop signing off
00:04:35.200 okay now do you remember when you bought your stamp uh authorizing the u.s postal service
00:04:49.280 to have any kind of covert internet operations
00:04:55.520 i don't remember that being part of the implied contract with the stamp no
00:05:02.080 when i was a kid and i watched um uh mr rogers i did have my suspicions about mr mcfeely
00:05:14.000 but it did not have anything to do with covert operations for his post office job
00:05:22.560 uh the usps did not immediately respond
00:05:27.680 however they did issue a statement they provided a general statement to yahoo news about the authority
00:05:37.760 listen to this about the authority it has to monitor the social media presence of u.s citizens
00:05:44.720 what authority does the postal service have to monitor the internet that's like saying
00:05:54.480 i'm the uh bakery police and i'm in charge of all bakeries and uh all of the felonies that happen in
00:06:02.800 bakeries but i do have a uh covert op uh at the uh victoria secret uh counter and uh what goes on
00:06:14.400 in their changing rooms i would be shocked if mr mcfeely worked there yeah but maybe not toys r us uh but
00:06:22.640 anyway here is the response from the postal service um explaining their authority
00:06:31.680 to monitor the social media presence of u.s citizens
00:06:34.720 quote the u.s postal inspection service is the primary law enforcement crime prevention and security
00:06:44.160 arm of the u.s postal service oh okay yeah that's true as such the u.s postal
00:06:52.480 inspection service has federal law enforcement officers postal inspectors who enforce approximately
00:06:59.680 200 federal laws to achieve the agency's mission to protect the u.s postal service and its employees
00:07:08.400 infrastructure and customers enforce the laws that defend the nation's mail system from illegal or
00:07:16.320 dangerous use and ensure public trust in the mail okay i didn't see anything about covert ops uh on the
00:07:24.080 internet and monitoring u.s citizens i didn't see any of that but i did see ensure public trust in the mail
00:07:31.440 and i don't think this works to help you on that one
00:07:37.760 i cop
00:07:41.600 everyone should be writing their senator and their congressman today and say i cop what the hell is i cop
00:07:50.960 in fact in fact in fact i want you to tweet and facebook post i support the police
00:08:02.080 i question deeply hashtag i cop
00:08:08.160 hashtag i support the police but i question deeply hashtag i cop shouldn't you
00:08:20.000 uh hello hello hello is anybody home the postal service is now spying on you
00:08:31.280 but no big deal right no big deal no big deal um by the way have you seen next door
00:08:38.640 do you even know what next door is still yeah it's like an app right where you can kind of
00:08:43.200 see what's going on in your local community right right right and so you just want to see what's
00:08:49.440 going on next door it's a little like the covert op uh that the postal service apparently is running
00:08:55.200 i'm just saying but if you want to find out what's going on in your neighborhood
00:08:59.040 just ask a cop just ask your post office you know do they know everything next door is basically like
00:09:05.200 hey this random person stole a package and i caught it on my ring app or whatever isn't it that type of
00:09:11.360 stuff like or you know uh there's someone i that looks suspicious in this part of town like it's
00:09:17.120 that isn't that part of it i don't use it so neither do i what a surprise but um i so appreciate uh what
00:09:26.000 next door has done now um they have a new anti-racism notification oh okay which will ask you to
00:09:34.720 reconsider posting content if the app thinks it's offensive okay um it's it's it's a you know they
00:09:44.720 had the kindness reminder which i appreciate i do but now i mean you might be a little racist you
00:09:53.440 want to rethink that um you know for instance uh the the phrase blue lives matter this hold on it says if
00:10:01.440 you try to post something and you have the uh the next door app it says oh whoa whoa hold on the
00:10:08.160 phrase blue lives matter can be hurtful to people of color consider editing before you publish no no
00:10:15.920 it can't be hurtful there's nothing there's no way that a phrase blue lives matter hurts anyone
00:10:21.840 it doesn't hurt anyone are you still listening to your mother yeah those sticks and stones your mom was
00:10:27.440 wrong your mom was wrong she is part of the white supremacist systematic system that keeps people
00:10:35.360 down the phrase hold on the phrase all lives matter can be hurtful of people of color consider editing
00:10:43.360 before you publish because there is no people of color's lives are included in the all they cannot
00:10:49.120 be hurtful it can't be hold on it's impossible hold on hold on says the next door app your post
00:10:55.840 contains a word or phrase that many find hurtful continue consider editing before you publish okay i
00:11:02.240 would just like to i mean i if i got that one i wouldn't have any idea what word i mean which word
00:11:10.000 i mean now everything so i don't know which word you have to be hold on next door can you be more
00:11:17.680 specific because the entire world is insane what did you learn with your algorithm that's offensive today

00:11:35.280 capable of doing that thank you hey by the way next door could you just store all this information for me
00:11:44.880 because i might want to look at all of the hateful things that i almost sent
00:11:49.600 please store all that information for me you know what just put it in an envelope and send it to the
00:11:56.720 postal inspector ah you know what you don't even need an envelope he's already got it yeah yeah you know
00:12:05.680 what we don't use on the internet i'm trying to figure out envelopes stamps postal workers
00:12:15.440 uh huh isn't that weird it's almost like email isn't mail it's like a communication device that has
00:12:29.600 nothing to do with the old timey mail service
00:12:34.160 but i understand why they're monitoring the internet if you don't maybe today is a good day
00:12:47.040 to tweet hashtag i stand with the police
00:12:54.480 i deeply question hashtag i cop why this story isn't ever well i know why this story isn't everywhere
00:13:04.160 uh because uh it's the i mean it is the job of the government to protect us and keep us all
00:13:12.160 safe from everything and they are never ever going to do something well let me give you an example i
00:13:17.680 know i said this last hour but you may have just gotten here you know you were late i'm sorry not late
00:13:22.400 you arrived at exactly the time you were supposed to arrive okay how dare me use my white supremacist
00:13:30.160 meritocracy kind of you're late but in case you missed it because you were right where you were
00:13:38.480 supposed to be last hour um i uh i i i i i did point out that uh something that maybe just maybe uh you should
00:13:51.040 know and uh and that is that the fbi has determined that the shooting of all of the you know lawmakers
00:14:03.600 you remember the baseball shooting remember in 2017 yeah i know we're still talking about it uh the fbi
00:14:09.440 is determined that was suicide by cop that wasn't domestic terrorism or politically motivated or anything
00:14:14.880 that was just suicide by cop that's all it was so i cop and the fbi are on it don't you feel safe now
00:14:22.560 spring is finally here i know minnesota keep it down we know not until august for you but for the rest of
00:14:29.200 the country spring is starting to come and i don't know about you but i love to grill outdoors it's so
00:14:36.080 easy now because of rec tech there's something about being outdoors in the spring that goes well with
00:14:41.840 a rec tech imagine that big juicy steak or that delicious hamburger maybe a big old slab of ribs
00:14:47.600 slathered in barbecue sauce that's slowly smoking to absolute perfection oh my gosh my mouth is
00:14:53.600 watering rec tech does it all smoking grilling baking i have one made of stainless steel it's built
00:15:00.320 like a tank and has smart grill technology which means i don't burn anything anymore and every time
00:15:06.240 you can control the whole process from an app on your phone or your device you're gonna love
00:15:11.360 rec tech follow rec tech on all social media sign up for their newsletter and then go to rec tech
00:15:16.400 with a q.com r-e-c-t-e-q.com you won't believe the difference
00:15:25.200 this is the best of the glenn beck program
00:15:27.600 oh thank goodness the leader of the free world okay
00:15:43.520 you're not thinking our president you know i'm talking about president z right of china uh the real
00:15:49.840 leader for freedom uh they are celebrating now yes they are celebrating 100 years of the communist
00:15:59.280 party in china yeah 100 years congratulations guys it's been a great hundred years a great century
00:16:05.840 a lot of good things it has happened mm-hmm so the communist party is going to celebrate its
00:16:12.400 uh 100 year anniversary in july we have so much in common the uh birthday presents um uh an opportunity
00:16:20.880 to rewrite history which there's a great article in the federalist today china's communist party is
00:16:27.440 hiding more history to celebrate a hundred years um and now here's what they've done
00:16:33.440 as a present to the people they have established a hotline and an app
00:16:39.200 so it makes it easier for you to snitch on your neighbors uh because if anybody says hey wait a
00:16:45.920 minute that's not actually correct you can tell the communist party right away where they are where
00:16:52.160 they live what they said uh you know maybe you get a few extra potatoes uh and they get a boot to the
00:16:58.240 head you know i'm it's a euphemism uh they kill them but uh it's it's great and you have to be
00:17:06.800 considered a trustworthy partner uh and uh and if you are boy you know cabbage potatoes whatever you
00:17:16.880 want whatever you want now i mean if you're one of the elites in the right family you could probably
00:17:22.160 start a business and uh be a part of capitalism of course if you cross the communist party
00:17:27.280 and they will find you and execute you but uh they were founded in 1921 at the international
00:17:33.200 settlement area in shanghai now this was a uh an area managed by the british that housed western
00:17:40.640 businesses politicians and visitors and it was the only place in china in 1921 where they had a free
00:17:47.520 press and you could speak out and it would be tolerated it was the only place why because the british
00:17:54.640 were there you know that evil western culture oh man so evil well unfortunately all that freedom
00:18:01.200 uh was used by the communists uh to use it as a base that's where mao came from and many of the
00:18:10.080 future leaders of the chinese communist party uh and they they avoided the chinese persecution
00:18:18.800 by living in the international settlement in the early 1920s uh you know it's a lot like all of those
00:18:25.360 radicals that live uh oh in america that are trying to subvert freedoms uh but they're living in well
00:18:34.240 what used to be known as a safe zone for freedom of expression and thought now to maintain the legitimacy
00:18:42.400 the communist party has uh been writing rewriting history to serve its political agendas for instance uh
00:18:50.320 the ccc or ccp now blames not mal for the for the great famine okay now the history books when mao was
00:19:01.680 alive said it wasn't him but when he died they changed the history books and said yes it was him he had a
00:19:09.120 five-year plan and he killed 40 million people because none of these stupid crazy ass ideas worked
00:19:16.560 uh so they had that history for a while but now president z has come in and said hey hey hey hey
00:19:23.440 hey uh did you forget about the weather patterns when he was doing that five-year plan we had horrible
00:19:31.120 horrendous weather and it wasn't mao it was the weather pattern uh you know climate change hello
00:19:38.640 so uh 40 million people died in that climate change weather um back uh back 59 through 61 it was
00:19:49.680 man it was bad estimated 40 million chinese people perished uh in that three years of natural disasters
00:19:57.760 is now what it's called not the great famine the ccp also rewrote the history of world war ii saying that
00:20:03.600 china defeated uh japan stew do you remember that way um not really no no i don't know there's some
00:20:12.960 other huh other nations um might be involved i was surprised that yeah i was surprised that china
00:20:19.440 didn't defeat japan because they got a lot more people uh but the japanese were just brutal to the
00:20:26.400 chinese but it was uh it was the chinese communists uh that did it they were they were
00:20:34.800 and and climate change well and climate change pretty sure climate i mean it's earth day climate
00:20:40.080 change was probably involved in that too uh by the way uh tianemans square 1989 yeah oh yeah i remember
00:20:46.320 that the tank the guy in front of it whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa you're not going to tell me
00:20:53.440 that there were a lot of people in tianemans square oh gosh it was one of the biggest protests
00:20:57.200 of all time okay all righty okay thank you mr american propagandist there were very few people into
00:21:06.080 tianemans square oh and uh and there were no shots fired on uh the evening of june 4th it's weird that
00:21:13.520 they would just make sure that they know nothing happened on june 4th just so you know um yeah the
00:21:20.640 very specific date uh nothing happened yeah when they when the tanks rolled into tianemans square
00:21:27.040 and no one died from the military activities it was a very small little gathering uh and the the
00:21:36.000 if you've seen the photos or the video of that guy in front of the tank yeah that was what i was
00:21:40.640 thinking yeah american cia that was all american cia the the guy the chinese citizen the video no it
00:21:49.360 didn't happen it didn't happen oh that didn't that's a that was a video created by the cia at the
00:21:55.200 time to make you think that that happened oh wow i yeah really have to rethink everything that i
00:22:02.480 know about history apparently yeah well thank you and by the way the cultural um liquidation
00:22:09.440 of uh of people you know the cultural revolution yeah 20 million dead i mean it was just a terrible time
00:22:14.960 no no no no you cannot blame mao for that what happened there was that mao's i'm quoting the new
00:22:25.680 history book mao's correct ideas about how to build a socialist society just weren't fully implemented
00:22:33.200 and that's what happens when you that is a problem it never seems to be fully implemented does it
00:22:39.520 mm-hmm nope and he had a much better idea but president z is here and he's going to fully implement
00:22:45.760 it and uh and you know you probably know this because you've uh uh you've heard that that fantastic
00:22:53.840 fantastic song uh following you is like following the sun which of course is about uh president z it's
00:23:01.360 available on all government apps uh and yeah you you are required to listen to it uh but i think that's
00:23:08.880 true too you know about following him is like following the sun you know neither one has a
00:23:14.000 looking at where you're yeah or if you're looking where you're going you your eyes will be burned
00:23:19.360 out um some way some way or another um but uh hey let's not say bad things about our dear chairman um
00:23:28.320 because he is i'm quoting the chairman of everything yes um he is uh it's true he is yeah i mean he's the
00:23:36.080 chairman of everything he's the leader of the great country uh he's the helmsman of the nation
00:23:41.120 he's the core of the party uh he's the architect of modernization in the new era and when i think of
00:23:48.960 modern i don't think of presidency when i think of the new era i don't think of presidency when i think of
00:23:56.960 the architect of the new era you know who i'm thinking stew i mean i think you're thinking the same
00:24:02.880 person right the architect of the new era one two three joe joe biden right right that's who i was
00:24:13.680 thinking so he seems man these communists are always trying to subvert us one way or another
00:24:20.800 putting out this propaganda that he's the architect have you seen what joe biden is doing now with green
00:24:26.800 week i mean because it's earth day today it is of course i've already knelt down to gaia and uh
00:24:33.280 sang her praises i slaughtered a young conservative today uh on the altar of gaia good good good i i
00:24:40.400 cut down a lot of trees because you know like you have a christmas tree i cut down like dozens of
00:24:44.320 trees for a day to celebrate oh no you can't do that no no no that's no no no no you have to slaughter
00:24:49.680 a young christian or a young conservative then your crops will be good oh really yes yes that's
00:24:56.320 great news yeah yeah you want great crops slaughter a young christian on the altar of gaia uh so anyway
00:25:01.840 i was doing that but um i like the new goal uh that um president biden has uh said we're we're gonna
00:25:09.920 we're gonna hit uh 50 reduction in uh our uh co2 gases uh by 2030 oh that's definitely gonna happen
00:25:21.120 now now there's no question about it now that's nine years yeah to cut them in half
00:25:27.440 and uh i mean there's no specifics on that plan uh the white house says we're working them out as
00:25:33.680 we go uh which i think is the way you do it you announce something you know that's like hey we're
00:25:39.680 gonna go to the moon and return a man safely at the end of this decade he didn't call nasa beforehand
00:25:46.400 you know no he hadn't there was no planning that went on before that he just said it and then it
00:25:52.720 happened it's like uh alexandria ocasio-cortez when she was asked how are we going to pay for
00:25:57.040 all these plans she said you just pay for them see now most of us never thought about that we're
00:26:03.200 not thinkers i was like wait where's the money come from like what happened do you just pay for
00:26:08.160 them was her answer and that's a great point okay so what well uh
00:26:15.760 i'd have to agree with you stew it is it is a really good point uh but biden has on that but
00:26:20.800 biden biden has decided who's gonna pay for all of it oh he announced this yesterday private
00:26:28.000 companies private companies are gonna have to pay for most of the green transition uh so we got that
00:26:33.440 going for us uh but it's only 2.5 trillion dollars uh needed in the next nine years that's all that's
00:26:40.640 that's all that's needed that's it two point 2.5 trillion that's it shockingly that's not it i just
00:26:46.560 want to make it very clear that is no no no over nine years over nine years that is no i mean they've
00:26:53.200 crunched the numbers over and over again are you a number cruncher expert number of crumb that's an
00:26:58.640 official title is that your job kind of on your card stuber gear number for yeah i don't think so
00:27:07.360 have you ever testified in defensive numbers no you haven't they have number crumb cruncher experts that
00:27:13.920 are on this and they say 2.5 trillion over the next decade which is a pittance a pittance i bet we come
00:27:20.400 in under that uh we're not going to come in under it and uh even when we do that nothing's going to
00:27:26.080 happen and uh we're going to wind up in a situation that even if the wildest dreams of the green
00:27:33.760 movement were to come true which they will not uh we still would make up almost no discernible
00:27:40.160 difference in the actual temperature of this planet wow you know why you say those things you know you
00:27:44.560 say those because they're true uh because you're a racist oh hey you're racist climate change climate
00:27:51.280 change is because of racism systematic racism don't believe me last aoc yep go ahead can we
00:27:58.720 just play that before we break real quick here's aoc on climate change it's great client the climate
00:28:04.320 crisis right is a crisis born right of injustice okay and it is a crisis born of the pursuit of profit
00:28:11.120 at any and all human and ecological cost ecological which means that we must listen to that
00:28:18.960 legislation listen to that roar the trampling of indigenous rights is a cause of climate change
00:28:24.640 yes the trampling of racial justice is a cause of climate yes allowing people and we are allowing
00:28:32.320 ourselves to make sure to we are allowing folks to deny ourselves human rights and deny people the
00:28:38.400 right to health care the right to health care yes okay stop before our head explodes
00:28:44.320 this is the best of the glenbeck program and don't forget rate us on itunes
00:28:56.400 because it is earth day and i'm very very excited i cut down my tree and decorated it
00:29:03.840 oh that's oh you shouldn't do that for earth day don't cut your tree down and bring it into the house
00:29:09.600 and decorate it apparently it's bad uh but los angeles wants you to know they're going to crack down
00:29:14.240 on disposable napkins utensils now if you if you get rid of disposable napkins that means
00:29:21.840 that you're going to have to wash all of the napkins so you're going to use a lot of water
00:29:28.560 uh you're going to have detergents and that's going to go into the sewer system and you don't
00:29:34.400 like detergents i know and in california there's nothing better than just washing all the napkins all
00:29:41.040 the time i mean they got plenty of water out there right am i right so they're getting rid of
00:29:47.120 disposable napkins and plastic forks and spoons which i think is really gonna it's gonna help uh
00:29:53.600 because uh we're in a transition now yes we're in a transition we don't even need a doctor uh we're in
00:30:00.880 a transition from a capitalist free market uh uh you know common sense economy that has gone horribly
00:30:12.320 corrupt uh to a horribly corrupt bogus government run hey let's pretend we're going green to save the
00:30:22.560 earth economy which i love so let's go into that that made-up world of pretending that that's what the
00:30:28.800 green economy and the green deal is all really about we're in the green transition and uh joe biden
00:30:35.440 yesterday came out and said private companies are going to have to pay for most of this which i think
00:30:40.880 is good you know jenna yellen came out and uh she said hey we're using you uh you know esgs scores uh and
00:30:48.000 that way we'll be able to you know work with those companies that are that are good and uh you know not
00:30:52.480 work with those companies that aren't so good and i think that's great i i do i do um now he hasn't
00:30:58.480 really gotten into exactly how we're going to cut our emissions by 50 percent
00:31:06.800 in nine years uh which by the way aoc says isn't enough um stew can you help me with cutting the
00:31:15.520 emissions of 50 percent what what what what what what what what would that take to cut emissions by 50
00:31:23.040 percent well uh in the united states yeah uh one thing well you could start here um you could take
00:31:31.200 uh the the transportation sector um and turn it off okay so that means like cars cars and airplanes
00:31:38.080 and trucks and the entire transportation sector trains that'll get you almost halfway there
00:31:43.760 that'll get you 25 that'll get about 20 20 okay 20 okay 20 so we've gotten rid of all of the
00:31:50.480 transportation cars all trucks all planes all trains uh what if we keep the planes and the
00:31:57.200 trains but we go to batteries on uh all the cars and trucks all electric well in nine years in theory
00:32:05.200 right getting rid of them would be even better um there are some estimates that people say that if
00:32:11.360 they're if if the electric car now look there are also estimates that show that electric cars over
00:32:15.840 time are worse unless you drive them around a hundred thousand miles each uh but still let's
00:32:21.440 just say it cuts it by half which is an aggressive estimate uh that would still only cut emissions
00:32:28.000 then by ten percent roughly which would get you only one fifth of the way to your fifty percent reduction
00:32:34.160 okay so okay so we've cut all that we have to cut the airlines and the and all transportation
00:32:38.560 yeah we do that we're at twenty percent what do we do to get to fifty i mean the only way you can
00:32:47.520 legitimately do something like that would be to completely remake the power making structure in
00:32:53.520 our country this is the power energy generation is really where you need to attack so obviously you're
00:32:58.560 turning off all oil you're not you're no longer drilling you're no longer doing any of that stuff
00:33:03.360 you're you're converting now of course i would assume you would this doesn't sound like a good
00:33:08.480 idea go ahead i would assume you're you're going to tell me as well that i can't use nuclear plants
00:33:13.440 to do this of course not okay they're dangerous yeah this is going to be uh near impossible right now
00:33:19.600 over time you might find a here's how you do it right you come up with a new technology or improve
00:33:26.880 existing technology like let's say solar panels that make them so incredibly cheap and reliable
00:33:32.960 that they outperform fossil fuels and then over a much longer than nine year period of time
00:33:39.200 that will be phased in and it will turn around because people want it to turn around it's what
00:33:43.120 happened the difference between gas natural gas and coal coal it was uh you know uh for a very long
00:33:51.040 time much much cheaper natural gas is performed incredibly well and it's cleaner so people just
00:33:56.160 have adopted it because they think it's a better fuel even though it's still a fossil fuel and that is
00:34:01.360 that is responsible for almost our entire drop of emissions though nowhere near 50 percent of
00:34:07.280 emissions of course which is i mean that you're talking about the other way you can do it is economic
00:34:11.680 catastrophe yeah you know you could do it that way too how many how much of our emissions did we cut
00:34:17.520 in the united states during covid that's a great question i have bjorn lomborg on my show uh today and
00:34:25.280 he asked him that question he wrote a column about this it would take me a few minutes to dig up but he
00:34:29.280 actually went through and it was not nearly as much as as you thought it would be 50 40 no it was not
00:34:37.120 that much we decimated our economy yeah we basically i mean we shut down the world right we shut down
00:34:42.560 the world for a pandemic and we still didn't come close to hitting those numbers of course damn cattle
00:34:48.240 ranchers that's what it is yeah too much farting from all right from various uh livestock so now today
00:34:54.400 they're going to be talking about uh making washington dc a 51st state uh but it's i mean come on it's it's
00:35:02.240 it's earth day
