USPS Is Broke: The $10 Billion DHL Lie!

Added: 2026-05-30

[00:00:01][singing] [music] [singing and music] >> Good morning, good afternoon, good evening.

[00:00:15]My name is J H. How you doing Postal Family? Is everybody good? Is everybody cool? Everybody clean? Are you crisp?

[00:00:23]Are you feeling irie today? Let's chat, shall we? I just got a couple of articles about DHL. Some of you seen some of you haven't.

[00:00:32]Uh the deal is everywhere and I see the headlines and I'm seeing people's comments in those articles. People are split right down the middle. Half of the people are saying finally the USPS is saved and we're getting that revenue.

[00:00:46]And uh the other half, y'all just looking at the screen like we are cooked. It is over. But look, I think both sides are missing the real play here because this isn't just about DHL. This is about survival of the Postal Service as we know it.

[00:01:06]And if you've been watching this channel, you know I've been tracking Postmaster General Steiner for a half a minute and honestly, Steiner already told us the vibe. He's been preaching restructuring, more package business, aggressive partnerships since day one.

[00:01:26]So when I saw the article, I wasn't shocked. No, no, no. I wasn't even surprised. I just said, "Okay, so he's actually doing what he said he was going to do." Now whether we like it, that's a whole different conversation. You see me?

[00:01:41]Look, from a corporate perspective, in a boardroom with AC and expensive coffee, yes, this makes perfect sense.

[00:01:52]Mail volume is tanked as we've been talking about the letters and the the flats.

[00:01:59]The word is fading.

[00:02:01]Y'all Y'all know everything is digital, but packages? We keep ordering tish.

[00:02:07]That's where the money is. Amazon, uh Temu, uh TikTok Shop. That's the future.

[00:02:16]So, I'm assuming the Postal Service is trying to lock in that long-term DHL schmoney.

[00:02:24]Business-wise, I get it. I get it. But here's the problem. Management hears revenue, but people like us and the carriers and the regular postal workers, uh we hear more work.

[00:02:44]And sometimes that's where the tension tension begins, because let's be real. A lot of your offices, um in the major cities, have been drowning.

[00:02:57]All right? The routes be overloaded, people are quitting left and right, the plants are backed up, uh we're short-staffed in almost every single zip code USA. So, when employees sees a billion-dollar deal, they don't see a bonus. No, they see another 2 hours of pivots and and a truck that's already too small for the route. So, to be clear, he said 10 billion dollars.

[00:03:24]So, who's actually carrying the mail?

[00:03:28]That's the question.

[00:03:30]And here's the kicker.

[00:03:34]Uh almost at the exact same time this DHL news gets dropped, there was another report that popped up yesterday.

[00:03:45]Now, I don't know what day you watching it, but today is 5 28 2026. Uh everybody sent me this and I didn't think it was nor necessary, but I'm going to share the news anyway. USPS is suspending non-essential uh spending. So, travel uh is cut for management. A lot of that specifically for management. Um office supplies, extra office supplies that was cut. Uh consultants, local consultants, they're gone. They even They They They They They They even spoke about pausing uh the the cash uh uh retirement contributions because they're talking about a cash cash crisis. Now, think about that. On one hand, they're signing these massive deals to grow.

[00:04:37]On the other hand, they're scrambling to keep the lights on behind the scenes.

[00:04:41]And that simply tells me, and I'm nobody, that the pressure is real.

[00:04:48]And he's trying to figure out things from all different angles. I respect that.

[00:04:52]The organization is fighting for its life right now. And unfortunately, I can't retire tomorrow. So, I'm all for it. Um and and a lot of y'all feel the energy when you're working before you even read the news.

[00:05:09]Um look, Steiner has been moving aggressively because he has to.

[00:05:17]He has to. We watched DeJoy do it. He seemed a little pompous, but Steiner's doing what he said he was going to do because the old model, and people going to be upset when I say this. Do you know who is upset? It's the people that have been doing things the way they've been doing it forever. The old model is dead.

[00:05:34]Packages are the only way forward. And I see comments where people say, "Oh, it's no longer the United States Postal. It's the parcel service." Hey, look, whatever we need to do to keep these lights on so we can keep paying these bills, that's all I care about. So, I can make a check. I don't care about what you do. I know we we need to make some money. All right? USPS grows this business without completely burning out the people that actually make it happen. We got to figure something out cuz if you don't care about the hands that actually deliver the mail, it doesn't matter how many billion-dollar deals this man signs up for.

[00:06:17]It's going to be a disaster. But, me personally, I think that this again is another good move.

[00:06:26]I could be wrong, y'all, but it's just one of those things where if you look at it from a business perspective and it's always that one we're not a business, we're a service.

[00:06:36]Well, if we're just a service, just take service pay. Because, uh, you know, Blue Cross Blue Shield is a service as well, right? Red Cross is a service.

[00:06:46]Get Get some of that money. You tell me how that works. We need to make money cuz we drowning right now. Gas is expensive. That's a whole 'nother story for another day.

[00:06:55]But, we have to think like a business even though we are a service. We have to. And we got to make this money because this is all I got left. I don't want us go and switch and work nowhere else. And I'm sure a lot of people don't want to. There's a lot of people that were talking in my last video that said they didn't want to leave, but they feel like they have to.

[00:07:17]I don't suggest it right now. Me personally, I don't because where else we going to go? We can try and go over to UPS. They letting people go as well. You going to go work for a contractor at FedEx or Amazon? We got to do these little part-time jobs. I spoke about it yesterday. Listen, I'm not going to babble on.

[00:07:35]Go check it out. News just dropped probably about Well, it happened today.

[00:07:39]So, maybe a couple hours ago, but I read the article a couple times. I'm not going to dissect it and make it more than what it is. He's just reinforcing more money.

[00:07:49]So, he did it with Amazon.

[00:07:51]Got a short post back from UPS. Now, we're getting DHL. Hey, the man is getting the money.

[00:07:58]Got to respect that, but y'all tell me what you think. Don't argue with me.

[00:08:02]Just tell me what you think.

[00:08:04]Cuz at the end of the day, we're here for the discussion. You see me? This is JH.

[00:08:10]And I'm out.
