Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called a Coffee with Scott Adams, and you're very lucky to be here, especially if you're seeing it live. And if you'd like to take your experience up to the orgasmic levels of euphoria that you know you deserve, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tankard, a chalice, a stein, a canteen, a thermos, a flask, a vessel. You also need my permission to put one on. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you for the assist. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. That happens now.

Ahhh. Much better.

Well, I just saw a tweet from Elon Musk who says a friend of his who lives in San Francisco had a bullet go through his wall of his apartment yesterday. But that's not the interesting part. The interesting part is it's the second time. Imagine living in San Francisco and on two occasions, two separate occasions, a bullet goes ripping through your apartment. Now I have what I call the three-bullet rule. If I'm living someplace, the first two times a bullet goes ripping through my walls, I'm okay. But that third time I'm starting to see a pattern. By the third time I'm like, huh, I'm going to start to evaluate my options.

Now I remind you of my experience in San Francisco in the, let's see, it was the 80s. San Francisco in the 80s, my apartment was completely cleaned out once. So I got robbed while I was at work. My car was broken into and my stereo was stolen four times, I think. Let's see, I was mugged once by a guy with a giant knife, once I was mugged on the street. Twice when I was a bank teller people pulled guns on me. One time I was walking down the street and somebody put a gun at my head and pulled the trigger but there was no round in the chamber. He thought that was pretty funny. So that was my experience. It wasn't unusual to come walking home and see somebody being beaten to death on the sidewalk. It was sort of a normal experience where I lived. So I'm not so sure that San Francisco is worse than the 80s, but it's definitely worsening.

Conor McGregor attended the Miami Heat game and I guess they were going to do a little promotional thing where he would come out and he would humorously get in a fight with the Miami Heat mascot, in which he would punch the mascot and that would be part of the show. So he punches the mascot and the mascot goes down as you'd expect. And then he gets on top of the mascot and he gives it a kill shot. Well anyway, the mascot went to the hospital. And I'm wondering how that job was described to the mascot. You know, was there a meeting beforehand in which the mascot probably has a boss, right? There's a boss of the mascots. And the boss was like, hey, we've got the best idea. You're gonna love this. And the mascot says, great, great, what is it, what is it? It goes, you're going to share the stage with Conor McGregor. The mascot's like, really, really? The most famous MMA fighter of all time, Conor McGregor? Yes. That's great, that's great. Well there's one more thing. Really, what is it? Well, Conor McGregor is going to punch you. Oh, what? Yeah, Conor McGregor is going to punch you. Well I thought you said Conor McGregor is going to punch me. Yeah, he's gonna punch you really hard. It'll be hilarious. Watch this. But he's gonna hold his punch, right? He's not going to give me like a full force MMA punch, right? Oh no, no, it's probably going to be three-quarter speed tops. And besides, your mascot head will be protecting you, won't it? Well, turns out that mascot head's a little softer than you'd expect. And a 75% punch from an MMA fighter kind of hurts. So he's in the hospital. Anyway, it's not funny that somebody got hurt, but I like bad management stories. So to me this just sounds like a bad management story. Like they could have worked out a few more details before sending him out to get punched by the strongest puncher in the world. I'm sorry, I shouldn't be laughing at that. I feel terrible about myself. I really do. But you might know that I treat my mascots the same way, so we got that in common.

All right. So now I've heard Alan Dershowitz take on the Trump legal risk from all of his boxes of secrets. And Dershowitz basically says there's no risk. And then I read Jonathan Turley and he's got a slightly different take on it but for different reasons: no risk. There's just no risk.

All right, here's what Dershowitz says. Basically most of the charges look like they can be easily defended against. In other words, the defense against most of what he did with the records, including not giving them back, I guess, doesn't rise to the level of a criminal case but might be a civil case of some kind and should have been handled that way or some other kind of crime. So it wouldn't be the kind of thing that would keep him out of office or put him in jail. So most of the charges are in that easy-to-dismiss or easy-to-defend concept because of some records act that defines this area pretty well. So that's what Dershowitz says.

He says there's one thing you have to worry about, though. There's one part that might put him in jeopardy, and that's the audio that they have that alleges that he had a document that he even described as something that shouldn't be shown to people, that maybe he showed to somebody. Which would be pretty bad if it were a really super secret document, which he said it was. He said it was still a secret.

And now this is the funny part. In Dershowitz, in the process of simply talking about the case, he offered up the perfect defense for the only part of the case that he thought was risky, which is the audio. Here's the perfect defense. Which do you think is more likely? Now this depends on the writer's testimony as well, right? So you'd have to hear what the writer says about it. But which of these two things do you think is more Trump? I'm going to give you an example. I'll be Trump now.

Oh man, I got these secret documents here. Got these secret documents. Why don't you read them? Here, here you go. Once you read them. Well, I sit silently. All right, okay, you got it. Did you read those? All right. So that's one thing that could have happened, and that would be really bad, wouldn't you agree? If he handed it to the writer and says take a look at this, read this. That would be very bad. Does that sound like Trump? Is that your imagination of who Trump is? That he would hand somebody a document when he's the star of the meeting, right? The meeting is about him. But he's going to give you a document and maybe sit there silently while you read it? That sounds just like him, doesn't it?

All right, let me give you another possibility that might have happened. This might be closer to it. Wow, I got these secret things that I can see because I'm a president. You can't. Whoa. Well, you imagine if you saw these. If I showed you these. Well, let me just describe what's here. There's some bad things in here, but wow, wow, you can't see it. This is some secret stuff. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I was president so I could see it. Well, I'm not president now so maybe, you know. But yeah, I didn't really do that.

Which one sounds more like Trump? It's not even close. I don't think there's a chance in the world that he handed it to him and he waited while he read it. Do you? I mean seriously. Now like I said, if the writer who was in the room, and I guess there was one other gentleman in the room, if they said that's what happened, then probably that's what happened. But it's really hard to believe. And if it turns out that all he did was flash it and talk about overall the topic, probably not a big deal.

So the Dershowitz take is that it's all easy to defend and that that's the most dangerous part. And we don't know all the details, but if it sounds the way it sounds on audio, in other words if the story is just what you hear on the audio, there's no real risk. So that's the Dershowitz take.

The Jonathan Turley take I think is cleaner and also to the same point, but his take is there's no way you could complete this trial before the election, you know, because everything takes years. So if they don't complete it before the election, Trump can pardon himself. Now that's Turley's view. Now maybe the Supreme Court would disagree, but it wouldn't stop him from doing it, would it? I mean maybe it would go to the Supreme Court, but I think they might agree. My take is that the Supreme Court is not going to say there is something in the Constitution that forbids the president from pardoning themselves. Because if the Constitution wanted that in there, it probably would be there. If it's not there, it's not there. That should be the end of the story. You know, I'm no constitutional scholar, but if it's not in there it would be hard to imagine it was assumed to be there. Like why would you assume that? On what basis could you make the assumption that they meant it to be there? I see no argument for it whatsoever.

All right. So it appears to me that the Democrats are trying to win the next election via a process of proving that everything Trump said about them is true and that it really is a witch hunt. By the way, Dershowitz says fairly directly, yeah, this is a political act. Would you feel comfortable if you were the Democrats and somebody who is a lifelong Democrat, Dershowitz, and also a leading scholar of this exact kind of stuff, tells you it's obviously political? There's no doubt about it. There's not even a gray area. This is obviously political. To me this is absolutely confirming everything that Trump said about people going after him and they would go after you next because they're going after supporters too.

So Trump is gaining energy. He is flipping people who were, let's say in the past they were anti-Trump or at least didn't care, and they've radicalized people to care a lot about defending Trump. They've also taken everybody else out of the news. Do you remember that big DeSantis news? I don't. Wasn't ready. I don't know. A few people got into the race but the only thing you heard about them is they got into the race. Do you remember what Chris Christie's policies are? No, you don't. Nobody knows. I mean some Republican stuff I guess. How about that Mike Pence? Who just took him right out of the news.

So I don't know what the Democrats are thinking. Are they thinking this is a good play? Because on day one it looked like it was. I have to admit on day one when I heard all the charges and the 37 charges and the pictures of the boxes in the bathroom at Mar-a-Lago, I thought to myself, oh that's worse than I thought. All this time I thought it was going to be no big deal but it's oh, it's so much worse. And it took exactly what, 48 hours for Dershowitz and Turley to weigh in, two people that I trust on this stuff, to basically say nah, it's another one of those walls closing in and not much to look at here. Now it'll be interesting and the process has to play through, but I don't think there's a risk. It looks like they just found the only way that you could guarantee Trump would get elected.

Now some would say that's their plan, Scott. Their entire plan is to look incompetent and look like liars until Republicans nominate Trump and then they can beat him easily because he's so beatable in the general. I like him. Let me ask you this. If Trump quit today, which will never happen, and DeSantis became the presumptive nominee, how long would it take for DeSantis to be accused of something equally bad, different but just equally bad? About a minute. Yeah, DeSantis would immediately become the anti-LGBTQ Hitler or Mussolini because they like to keep it nice and racist. That's how the Democrats like it, nice and racist. Call him Mussolini because he's Italian. So all right, well keep an eye on that but it sure looks like they're trying to get Trump elected.

All right. George Soros has retired, I guess you could call it that, and handed over control of his charitable stuff to his 37-year-old son. I guess he's got two sons and it was not obvious that the younger one would take over. Now you say to yourself, well Scott that makes no difference whatsoever because the son is radicalized by the father and the son will just carry on. And maybe the son was in charge for a long time anyway. Maybe there's no difference at all. And maybe you're totally right.

However, I would like to inject this little note of optimism. So Alex Soros is his name, the son. And you know he does say that defeating Trump is still important. You know he was definitely going to be political and even more political. And he says as long as money is part of the process, money will be part of the process. He'll be part of that money process. However, here's something he said that I feel gives you cause for hope. He says that he's a Bill Maher Republican. And he said he went to bed watching Bill Maher at night. So now you have a pretty good shorthand for where he is politically. Are you worried about that? Would you be worried? Let's say it's true. Let's say it's true. And I don't think you'd make that up, right? That doesn't sound like something you just come up with to sound good or something like that. That sounds real. My guess is he's genuinely a fan of Bill Maher.

What is Bill Maher's opinion of the liberal prosecutors? Do you know his opinion? It's not a Democrat opinion. Bill Maher says it's gone too far and that the cities are hellholes. And I'm sure that you would think that the prosecutors are some part of that problem. So does that mean that Alex Soros might be influenced by the Bill Maher position that things have gone too far and that the craziness level has just reached an unsustainable level for the republic? What do you think? Give me. All right, I'm just going to poll you. If you think that he's going to agree more with George or Bill, just say George or Bill. Who do you think is going to be more influenced by? George's father George Soros or Bill Maher? Just show me in the comments. See, mostly George's. And that wouldn't be surprising, right? You'd expect the father to have a big impact. And some say Bill. Yeah, maybe. I don't know. It looks like a 75 George, 25 Bill coincidence. You could be right.

Now I do think that George will be influential on all the things that he already agrees with. For example, I think the fact that George Soros was a Democrat largely guarantees that Alex will be one, has been one, will continue to be one. So I would say I would agree that George Soros is the primary influence because he's going to do some Democrat liberal stuff with his money. Well I would say that Bill Maher is going to be more influential on a narrow question such as the prosecutors. Now that doesn't mean he'll stop funding them because I've always thought that the funding was sort of indirect. You know, I don't think he wanted these specific outcomes. He just got them.

So I'm gonna say that the son will, here's my prediction, that the son will modify the things that weren't working. Because when somebody takes over they do like to put their fingerprint on it. Might be too early because the father's still alive. So at the moment he probably just has to do whatever his father wants, you know, just out of respect. But I would say fairly soon when his father is a little bit more out of it, I think the son is going to look to correct the excesses. And by that I mean giving money to Black Lives Matter looks like a mistake in retrospect, wouldn't you say? It didn't really look like that much of a mistake when it happened but at the moment it looks like a huge mistake. It's just it wasn't obvious at the time.

Now what about the prosecutors? When George Soros first had the idea of not putting people in jail for non-violent crimes, do you think that maybe that sounded like a good idea on paper? Because I actually think I might have been persuaded by that. I've heard the argument. If you hear the argument separate from what actually happened and you just heard it in a conceptual state: stop putting people in jail for little stuff because once they get a criminal record you know they get locked into the criminal path because you can't get a good job and then you get taken away and then your kid doesn't have a father and then there's a whole ripple effect. So I'm very much in agreement with George Soros that arresting people for small crimes can make the life of their child much worse.

However, it's clear that nobody thought it through to the ultimate conclusion, which is it destroys the retail industry entirely and turns everybody into a criminal because it's just too easy to steal and get away with it. Now do you believe that 37-year-old college-educated Alex Soros thinks that what's happening right now with the liberal prosecutors is working? Do you think if you were alone in a room with him and said look, do you think that worked? Is that what you planned? And a lot of you are almost all say yes. Okay, I'm going to disagree with you and say that there's no chance he would say that. Not at all. I would put the odds at exactly zero that he would say that worked out because he's looking at the same news you are. Remember the Democrat news is saying it didn't work. It's not just the Republicans. It is now a matter of obvious fact that both the left and right can see that the cities have been destroyed by rampant crime.

So you think that if you were alone with him in a room he would say that worked out the way we wanted? Do you really believe that? You really believe he would say yes, this is what we were looking for? All right, you got a little quiet there, didn't you? No, there's no chance he thinks that worked. There really is no chance. I'll respect your disagreement, okay? I will respect your disagreement because I know where it comes from. It's not an unthoughtful disagreement. It's a thoughtful disagreement. So I respect it. I disagree completely. I think there's zero chance that privately he would say it worked.

Do you think I should ask him if he'll talk to me? Maybe do an interview? I think that would be very interesting. I understand that he's a Berkeley graduate. Somebody said so. We both got that Berkeley Cal Bears thing going. So maybe he'll say yes. Anyway, if I were him I would say yes because for someone who has a mostly conservative audience as I do, I would give him the friendliest interview because I don't start with the assumption that they're all guilty of everything. They might be. I don't rule it out. I'm just, I don't start with the assumption that he's guilty. I just don't have that assumption. So maybe he would talk to me. I think that would make everything better.

All right. I've said this a few different ways but I'll try it another way. In 2023 when somebody goes in public and says no one is above the law, how do you hear that? Because in 2023 what I hear is I'm going to do some dictatorship now. I'm going to take away your civil rights. That's what I hear. I no longer hear this as some kind of a statement of constitutional lofty ideals. It just sounds like something the dictator says before they put your ass in jail. Oh, nobody's above the law. And you're in jail. It's amazing how that changed in the era of Trump because we can see now, I mean it's really, really, really obvious that the law is being applied differently. You know, you see the shoplifters coming in and taking what they want. Is that equal application of the law? Not even close. Is Trump being treated the way anybody would be treated? Well according to the most storied and qualified lawyers of all time, no, not even close.

So to imagine that somebody could go in front of the public and say nobody is above the law and not look like an idiot, it's amazing they even still say it. It's just the dumbest thing you could say in 2023 when it's just so obviously not true. Yeah, it's not true. It doesn't even make you look smart when you say it. It now makes you look like you're a criminal basically. You know what I see? When Jack Smith said that I immediately thought he was just a criminal. Now not necessarily breaking a law but not acting in the benefit of the republic, not doing the job he was tasked with doing and doing a hit piece on an American citizen that happens to be an ex-president. That's what I saw. To me it just looked like a criminal talking like a criminal. Yeah, why do you rob banks? Well that's where the money is. That's what it sounded like to me.

All right. You following this UFO whistleblower? All right, I believe that almost none of you believe the UFOs are real and therefore don't believe the whistleblower. Am I right? Let me do another quick survey. Do you believe that the whistleblower talking about the aliens being, you know, being possessed, how many of you believe it's true? Yes or no. All no's on Locals. Everyone is now 25 percent. All right, we got a sprinkling of yeses on YouTube.

Well let me speak to the yeses, the people who think it's true. We now have new information that the whistleblower says that at least one of the vehicles, these captured UFOs, is bigger on the inside than on the outside. Ah huh. Where have I heard that before? It's a structure, some kind of a vessel or a ship that's bigger on the inside than the outside. Huh. Well there's Snoopy's doghouse. Snoopy's doghouse is bigger on the inside than the outside. And let's see, in Doctor Who there's the Tardis. Looks like a phone booth but when you go inside it's a whole big ship. Yeah. So how do you feel now, you those of you who think that UFO story and the whistleblower true? That sound good still? And he also added that one of the crafts is the size of a football field. Yeah, there's something the size of a football field that crash landed and nobody got a picture? You mean no one outside the government nobody got a picture? Yeah. So you're still feeling pretty good about that UFO whistleblower? Feeling pretty confident about that?

All right. Well the Unabomber died in prison and some are saying it was suicide and some are saying I don't know. I'm not interested in the Unabomber. Can I get a vote of agreement here? We don't care about the Unabomber, do we? Nobody cares. You know, but yeah, here's a true story. The Unabomber actually caused me some problems. So the Unabomber and his situation actually overlapped with my personal life. True story. So when stuff was blowing up, and I make sure I got this story right, this I think this was the Unabomber, maybe it was a different bomber, but weren't they saying that the packages had some way to tell that they were maybe a problem because it'd be something in the return address? It sounded like a tree or something. There was some kind of signal that, or no return address or something. Yeah. So there was something we were told that if the package looked sketchy that you should call the police. Well I actually got a sketchy package that had a return address that had one of the sort of keywords in it that tells you it might be a bomb. So I actually called the police and they took a look at it. And I was a public figure so I was potentially somebody on the target list. And it was just a fan. Some fan sent me something unsolicited but it did ruin my day.

All right, let's talk about Ukraine and then the pyramids. So there's very little news out of Ukraine and even the very little news is not reliable. Most of the news is either Russian or Ukrainian source showing a tank that got blown up by the other side or something like that. Basically you can't tell anything from the videos and reports. Just nothing at all. But the reports, the news says that maybe Ukraine took two villages without much resistance. That means about nothing because it's not like every village is equally protected. So I don't know, maybe they weren't strategic. So there's basically no news.

But the thinking of the experts is that the objective of the Ukrainian counteroffensive is to cut off the land bridge to Crimea. Does that sound right? They want to cut off the land bridge to Crimea. But does that really mean that they plan to take Crimea back? Here's my prediction for the day. Prediction for the day. That Ukraine's objective is to cut off Crimea and then negotiate. Because I don't think they want to take Crimea. That would probably wipe out the whole army in the process. But they want to make it look like they could. They want to make it look like any moment now we're going to take your Crimea away. We took your land bridge away so it's harder to reinforce it. But we're going to take your Crimea back. And then they're going to negotiate. That's what I think.

I saw Biden talking about when he was vice president his trips to Ukraine. How many of you know how many trips Biden made to Ukraine when he was vice president? Do you know how many? So he's saying 25. I think it was in the high teens. It was like 17 or something. Now how many times does any vice president go to any specific country during the term of the vice presidency? How many times has Kamala Harris gone to Central America? Once. Once. Can you give me any good reason why a vice president would go to any foreign country 17 times? Any country for anything? I can't. Thank you. I can think of no legitimate government purpose for going there 17 times. And by the way, why didn't we know about it? Are you telling me that during the Obama presidency that Biden went to Ukraine 17 times and that was not news? That nobody mentioned how many times he's going to this one place? Yeah, there's clearly something very, very wrong going on here. Clearly something wrong. How is that not big news? I never even cared about Ukraine until the recent dust-up. Are you telling me that Ukraine was so important that Biden would go there 17 times or whatever it was, some number in that range, and we would never even hear about it? I don't believe I saw one story about that. Did you? Do you remember seeing any news story about the vice president traveling to another country? How is that not a story? I mean at least a mention. Somebody says only six times. Biden himself, I saw a quote yesterday that was way more than six times. Now he might have been lying but I guess that's another story. Yeah, that's too many times. Too many times. There's something wrong there.

All right, we're gonna talk about the pyramids last because it's the most fun. So I saw that there are a bunch of links to news stories claiming that those Canadian fires are most clearly caused by climate change at the same time that the satellite imagery shows that there were a whole bunch of fires set at exactly the same time. Genuinely, genuinely curious. Did the people who wrote those articles blaming climate change, did they believe what they wrote? Yeah, you're saying it's lightning but there's always been lightning. There's never not been lightning, right? But whether it was lightning or whether it was arson, and it certainly looks like arson. But whichever it was, neither of those have anything to do with forest fires because the number of forest fires is down. It's not up, it's down. So but don't you wonder if the people who wrote this story actually believed what they wrote? Because usually, well anyway. Yeah I just, I'm just usually I think people believe what they write but this one doesn't look like, yeah this doesn't look like they believed it. Or are they that clueless? I mean it could go either way.

Rand Paul says there's a bunch of Republicans that are beating the drums of war with China. What? I'd like to know their names. Who exactly thinks a war with China would be a good idea? We actually have some members of Congress, they have an R next to their name, who are beating the drums for war. Are you kidding me? Who? So RFK Jr. was tweeting the Rand Paul thing and RFK Jr. says you know basically we should find a way to work with China because a war with China would just be insane. I mean I don't know what else you could say about it. It would be literally insane. And China knows that, right? You don't start a war unless you have some chance of winning. Isn't that like the first rule of war? You don't start a war unless you think you might win it. Who thinks they could win a war with China in the U.S.? How could that be anything but a huge gut punch to civilization for the next 30 years? How could it be anything but that? There's no winning scenario that anybody can even imagine in their greatest imagination. You can't imagine winning either side. There's no way either had to make wins. So why are they even talking about it? Now if you're talking about it as a threat or something like that as part of the negotiation, okay that would be the Trump method to just give them an idea it might happen. But Rand Paul is suggesting that they're serious about it. I don't even know what to say about that. How did those people get reelected? I don't know.

But RFK says in a tweet about this he says ultimately our free market system is superior to China's centrally controlled one. We can outcompete them in peaceful competition as long as we stop squandering our resources in endless foreign wars. Most of that, the trouble is that how do you compete against low labor costs? I mean I get that robots can help us a lot but ultimately you can't compete against that. I mean you can move your business to another low labor cost place but you can't, you know we're not going to lower the labor cost of America. So we don't really have a way to compete against that directly. But I do agree with the general point. You know between robots and moving our business elsewhere, yeah there's a lot of stuff we can do and none of it requires a war. So I like RFK Jr.'s instincts on this the best.

All right, let's talk about pyramids. So I watched a video on YouTube yesterday that makes some claims that I've seen before and I can't remember the name of the video. The video I wish I could. It's something like what the heck or something. I don't know but it's really good and all tweeted around if I run into it again. But the idea is this. How many of you believe that the ancient Egyptians, you know the direct descendants of the people who live there today, how many of you think they built those pyramids and that they forgot how they did it? Does that sound remotely possible to you? It doesn't to me honestly. It never sounded real to me. I just don't believe that the descendants used to know how to build pyramids but now they don't. No, I'm sorry I just don't believe it.

And there are some people who say the pyramids are older than the civilizations that are there and some people say it's aliens. Now do you know that they've never found a mummy, a dead leader in a pyramid? And we were taught, we were taught in school that these were burial tombs for the dead leaders. They had never found one in there nor have they ever found evidence one has ever been in there. There's one sarcophagus but it doesn't look like it ever had a body in it. And the one sarcophagus is not even in an ornate pyramid. It's in a pyramid that doesn't even have wall writing. So it doesn't look like it was even made for a leader. It looks like it's a utility, right?

All right, so here's the theory that I'm actually a little bit convinced by. It goes like this. The outside of the pyramids, which have mostly crumbled with age, used to have a different kind of rock that was covering the rough edges so it's more smooth. And that kind of rock we know has electrical insulation properties, right? It had electrical insulation properties. I think it was limestone. Yeah. Now that alone doesn't tell you much because rocks have different qualities. They just used limestone. But the limestone was covering the base rocks and the base rocks were, tell me what the base rocks was, but it had a lot of crystal in it. Sandstone? Granite? Was it granite? Whatever it was, some kind of red granite somebody says. But whatever that rock was apparently you had a lot of quartz in it.

Now the nature of quartz is if you compress them they create electricity. Now if you were to have a quartz watch and you shook it, the shaking itself would be enough to create electricity to run your watch. Yeah, the piezoelectric process. Now apparently at least one of the pyramids, maybe all of them, have an aquifer underneath. And the aquifer would act to create noise and the noise would travel up through the chambers and create a vibration. And the vibration that it would create would activate the quartz because any movement of the quartz creates that little bit of electricity. And because the pyramids are massive it sums up all those tiny little electrical signals until you have a massive electrical power plant. And apparently there's some indication that the top of the pyramid was gold. You know it was sort of like an electrical conductor situation.

Now here's the fun part. Did you know that inventor Nikola Tesla had plans to create a generator that would send you electricity through the air so you didn't need power cables? Did you know that? Did you know that he built one and it worked? So he could stand across the field with just a light bulb in his hand and the light bulb would light up using the electricity that had flown through the air from his power plant at a distance. It wasn't hypothetical. He actually built it and it worked. So he went to J.P. Morgan and he said to him, J.P. Morgan, can you give me some money for this? Because J.P. Morgan was the richest guy. And J.P. Morgan said no. Do you know why? Because J.P. Morgan owned the competing form of electricity, Westinghouse. He owned the companies that made telephone poles, copper wires. He owned companies that made every part of the process of what you see as our modern grid. So he said no and Tesla never built his machine.

So it looks like the pyramids are actually a Tesla, you know in the form of Tesla, kind of a power generating device that was designed to send electricity through the air to some recipient. Which would also explain why the pyramids are largely in one area just like we would build a second power plant where a current power plant is. I mean you would put them where you already had one but you needed a little more. So I'm actually kind of persuaded by that theory. I'm not going to say it's 100% true but I am now persuaded that there probably was a civilization that was advanced, came before us and has died out.

How did they learn that thousands of years ago? The idea would be that there was once an advanced civilization that was not related necessarily to the ancient Egyptians but rather there was somebody who knew how to do this stuff and maybe had power over them or influence and worked with the locals because they needed a lot of labor to do this stuff.

Now I have another theory. If it's true that the pyramids were about vibration, which that's the theory, that it had to vibrate at a certain level in order to put out the electricity and so that the entire design was to cause vibration of a specific type. The ancients who built that were big on vibrations. Do you think they could have used vibration to cut the rocks? In other words could you, let's say you had a saw or a wire, I don't know, something like that, and you just use vibrations. Could you vibrate it enough that it would make a clean slice through a rock? Just a question. I've never seen anybody try it but if they were capable enough to create the pyramids as a power source and using vibrations, would they also know enough to use vibration to cut the rock? Maybe. Maybe there's an exact vibration that cuts rock. How about that? If you were to try every kind of vibration against a rock with some kind of cutting tool, do you think it would be the same at every vibration? But not. I bet there's some. Oh you think it would be high pressure water can cut steel? Yeah I've also thought about the high pressure water because they could do that, right?

So here here's how the ancients could create a high pressure water cannon. Because we know they could move large rocks. How would they do it? They would just put large rocks on top of a container of water. The large rock would push it down and put pressure on it and then they've got a little hose thing and the pressure comes out because there's a giant rock on top of the water, you know with a seal. So could the ancients have built a powerful high pressure water cannon? I think they kind of, yeah I think they could have. It would be hard to get the nozzle to work if they didn't have good metal I suppose but if they had a gold top on their pyramid they knew how to work with metal a little bit. Well okay, maybe they had electricity so they just had power tools. Maybe that's it. Maybe they had the flex hose. I just bought one of those. They have no pictures so they never documented it.

All right, what do you think of that theory? Would that explain everything? To me that answers all the questions. Oh no it doesn't explain everything. What would be unexplained by the Why Files? Oh I think, I think is that what I was talking about was that the Why Files. That might be the one I'm talking about. We have a Y in the name. Dunning Kruger I'm not sure what sense you're using that. Stones are still a mystery. Yes. Don't do volume only elevation. Oh that's true. Check the hieroglyphics. Yeah the hieroglyphics apparently there are no hieroglyphics on any pyramids that show how the big rocks were moved. Can you believe that? The most impressive amazing part of building a pyramid is how do you move those big rocks and there's not a single hieroglyphic that shows that, moving any big rocks. Wouldn't that be like the most likely thing to be on the wall? It's too dumb. There's no, yeah there's no. There's also no pictures of the leaders on the walls which would suggest they're not burial tombs. Canals and sluice gates. Yes. So one theory is that they use canals and sluice gates to float the rocks which was a, I saw the video on how they did that. That was a reasonably good hypothesis. Yeah that was a reasonably good hypothesis.

All right, that ladies and gentlemen is all I needed to talk about today. Was there any story I missed? Anything in the news that you wish I had talked about? Everything is frequency and vibration. You're right. Transgender, that was just a meme. Sphinx is older than the pyramids. Yeah the Sphinx is, now crack me up. I'm wrong. Did I say that there's more than one Sphinx? There's the Egyptian Sphinx but there's at least one other thing somewhere, right? There's one great one but there are other ones. Yeah in Las Vegas. I think the fact that there are other sphinxes built you know in the ancient times suggests that there's some common civilization that touched the primitives. All right, it's used to intimidate. All right I'm gonna say bye to YouTube. Thanks for joining the best live stream ever. See you tomorrow.

good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called a coffee with Scott Adams and uh you're very lucky to be here especially if you're seeing it live and if you'd like to take your experience up to the orgasmic levels of euphoria that you know you deserve all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass a tanker jealous of Stein a canteen children flask a vessel you also need my microphone to put on yes yes yes thank you for the assist and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dope immediate of the day the thing that makes everything better is called the simultaneous sip that happens now cow ah much better well I just saw a tweet from Elon Musk who says a friend of his who lives in San Francisco I had a bullet go through his wall of his apartment yesterday but that's not the interesting part the interesting part is it's the second time imagine living in San Francisco and on two occasions two separate occasions a bullet goes ripping through your apartment now I have what I call the three bullet rule if I'm living someplace the first two times a bullet goes ripping through my walls I'm okay but that third time I'm starting to see a pattern by the third time I'm like huh I'm going to start to evaluate my options now I remind you of my experience in San Francisco in the uh let's see it was the 80s San Francisco in the 80s say my apartment was completely cleaned out once so I got robbed while I was at work my car was broken into and my stereo was stolen four times I think um let's see uh I was mugged once by a giant knife uh once by uh Gone on the street twice when I was a bank teller people pulled guns on me one time I was walking down the street and somebody put a gun at my head and pulled the trigger but there was no uh there was no round in the chamber he thought that was pretty funny um so that was my experience it wasn't unusual to come walking home and see you know somebody being beaten to death in the sidewalk it was sort of a normal experience where I lived so I'm not so sure that San Francisco is worse than the 80s but it's definitely worsening um Conor Mc.

Gregor attended the Miami Heat game and I guess they were going to do a little promotional thing where he would come out and he would humorously get in a fight with him with the Miami Heat mascot in which he would punch the mascot and that would be you know part of the part of the show so he punches the mascot and the mascot goes down as you'd expect and then he gets on top of the muskin mascot and he and he gives it a kill shot well anyway the mascot went to the hospital ah and I'm wondering I'm wondering how that job was described to the mascot you know was there a meeting beforehand in which the mascot probably has a boss right there's a boss of the mascots and the boss was like Hey we've got the best idea you're gonna love this and the mascot says great great what is it what is it it goes you're going to share the stage with Conor Mc.

Gregor of the mascots like really really the like most famous MMA fighter of all time Conor Mc.

Gregor yes that's great that's great well there's one more thing really what is it well Conor Mc.

Gregor is going to punch you oh what yeah Conor Mc.

Gregor is going to punch you well I thought you I thought you said Conor Mc.

Gregor is going to punch me yeah he's gonna punch you really hard it'll be hilarious watch this but uh but he's gonna hold his punch right he's not going to give me like a full force MMA punch right oh no no it's probably going to be three-quarter speed tops and besides your mascot head will be protecting you won't it Well turns out that mascot head's a little softer than you'd expect and uh a 75 punch from a MMA fighter is kind of hurts kind of hurts so he's in the hospital anyway it's not funny that somebody got hurt but I like management I like bad management stories so to me this just sounds like a bad management story like they could have worked out a few more details before sending them out to get punched by the the strongest puncher in the world I'm sorry I shouldn't be laughing at that I feel terrible about myself I really do but um you might know that I treat my mascots the same way so got that in common all right uh so now I've heard Alan dershowitz take on the Trump legal risk from all of his boxes of Secrets and dershowitz basically says there's no risk and then I read Jonathan Turley and he's got a slightly different take on it but for different reasons no risk there's just no risk all right here's what dershowitz says basically most of the charges look like they can be easily defended against in other words the defense against most of what he did with the records including not giving him back I guess doesn't doesn't rise the level of Crim of a a criminal case but might be a civil case of some kind and should have been handled that way or some other kind of crime so it wouldn't be the kind of thing that would keep him out of office or put him in jail so there's most of the charges are in that easy to dismiss or easy to defend uh concept because of some I don't know some records act that defines this area pretty well so that's what dershowitz says he says there's one thing you have to worry about though there's one one part that might put him in jeopardy and that's the audio that they have that alleges that he had a document that he even described as something that shouldn't be shown to people that maybe he showed to somebody maybe he showed to somebody which would be pretty bad if it were you know a really super secret document which he said it was he said it was still a secret and now this is the funny part in dershowitz in the in the process of simply talking about the case he offered up the Perfect Defense for the only part of the case that he thought was risky which is the audio here's the Perfect Defense which do you think is more likely now this depends on the writer's testimony as well right so you'd have to hear what the writer says about it but which of these two things do you think is more Trump I'm going to give you a uh an example I'll be Trump now oh man I got these secret documents here got these secret documents um why don't you read them here here you go once you read them well I say silently all right okay you got it did you read those all right so that's that's one thing that could have happened and that would be really bad wouldn't you agree if he handed it to the writer and says take a look at this read this that would be very bad does that sound like Trump is is your imagination of who Trump is they would hand somebody a document when he's the star of the meeting right the meeting is about him but he's going to give you a document and maybe sit there silently while you read it that sounds just like him doesn't it all right let me give you another possibility that might have happened this might be closer to it wow I got these secret things that I can see because I'm a president you can't whoa well you imagine if you saw these if I showed you these well let me just describe what's here there's some bad things in here but wow wow you can't see it this is some secret stuff whoa whoa whoa I was President so I could see it well I'm not president now so maybe you know but uh yeah I didn't really do that which one sounds more like Trump it's not even close I don't think there's I don't think there's a chance in the world they handed it to him and he waited while he read it do you I mean seriously now like I said if the writer who was in the room and I guess it was one other gentleman in the room if they said that's what happened then probably that's what happened but it's really hard to believe and if it turns out that all he did was you know flash it and talk about you know overall the topic probably not a big deal so the dershowitz take is that it's all easy to defend and that that's the most dangerous part and we don't know all the details but if it sounds the way it sounds on audio in other words if the story is just what you hear on the audio there's no real risk so that's the dershowitz take the Jonathan Turley take I think is cleaner and also to the same point but his take is there's no way you could complete this trial before the election you know because everything takes years so if they don't complete it before the election Trump can pardon himself now that's totally's View now maybe the Supreme Court would disagree but it wouldn't stop him from doing it would it I mean maybe it would go to the Supreme Court but I think they might agree my take is that the Supreme Court is not going to say there is something in the Constitution that forbids the president from pardoning themselves because if if the Constitution wanted that in there probably be there if it's not there it's not there that should be the end of the story you know I'm no constitutional scholar but if it's not in there it would be hard to imagine it was assumed to be there like why would you assume that under on what basis could he make the assumption that they meant it to be there I I see no argument for it whatsoever all right so it appears to me that the Democrats are trying to uh win the next election via a process of proving that everything Trump said about them is true and that it really is a Witch Hunt by the way dershowitz says fairly directly yeah this this is a political Act would you feel comfortable if you were the Democrats and and somebody who is a lifelong Democrat dershowitz and also you know leading scholar of this exact kind of stuff tells you it's obviously political there's no doubt about it there's not even a gray area this is obviously political to me this is absolutely confirming everything that Trump said about uh people going after him and they would go after you next because they're going after supporters too so Trump is gaining energy he is flipping uh people who were let's say in the past they were anti-trump or at least didn't care and they've radicalized people to care a lot about defending Trump they've also taken everybody else out of the news do you remember that big De.

Santis news I don't wasn't ready I don't know you know a few people got into the race but the only thing you heard about them as they got into the race do you remember what Chris Christie's policies are no you don't nobody knows I mean some Republican stuff I guess how about that Mike Pence who who just took him right out of the news so I don't I don't know what the Democrats are thinking are they thinking this is a good play because on day one it looked like it was I have to admit on day one when I heard all the charges and the 37 charges and the the pictures of the boxes in the bathroom at Mar-A-Lago and I thought to myself oh that's worse than I thought all this time I thought it was going to be no big deal but it's oh it's so much worse and it took exactly what 48 hours for you know let's say dershowitz and Turley to weigh in two people that I trust on this stuff yeah to basically say nah it's another one of those walls are closing and not much to look at here now it'll be interesting and you know the process has to play through but I don't think there's a risk it looks like they just found the only way that you could guarantee Trump would get elected now some would say that's their plan Scott their entire plan is to look incompetent and look like liars until Republicans nominate Trump and then they can beat him easily because he's so beatable in the general I like him let me ask you this if Trump quit today which will never happen and De.

Santis became the you know presumptive nominee how long would it take for De.

Santis to be accused of something equally bad different but just equally bad about yeah about a minute yeah he De.

Santis would immediately become the anti-lgbtq Hitler right or or Mussolini because they like to keep it nice and racist that's how the Democrats like it nice and racist call him moose lady because he's Italian so all right well keep an eye on that but it sure looks like they're trying to get Trump elected all right George Soros has retired I guess you could call it that and handed over control of his charitable stuff to his uh 37 year old son I guess he's got two sons and it was not obvious that the the younger one would take over now you say to yourself well Scott that makes no difference whatsoever because the sun is radicalized by the father and uh the the sun will just take on you know carry on and maybe the sun was in charge for a long time anyway maybe there's no difference at all and maybe you're totally right however I would like to inject this little note of optimism uh so Alex Soros is his name the Sun and you know he does say that defeating Trump is still important you know he was definitely going to be political and even more political and he says as long as money is part of the process money will be part of the process he'll be part of that money process however here's something he said that uh I feel gives you cause for hope he says that he's a Bill Maher Republican another and he said he went to bed watching you know Bill Maher at night so so now you you have a pretty good shorthand for where he is politically are you worried about that would you be worried let's say it's true let's say it's true and I don't think you'd make that up right that doesn't sound like something you just come up with to sound good or something like that that sounds real my guess is he's genuinely a fan of Bill Barr what is Bill Maher's opinion of the liberal prosecutors do you know his opinion it's not a Democrat opinion Bill Maher says it's gone too far and that the cities are hell holes and I'm sure that you would think that the prosecutors are some part of that problem so does that mean that Alex oros might be influenced by The Bill Maher position that things have gone too far and that there the craziness level has just reached an unsustainable level for the Republic what do you think give me all right I'm just going to pull you if you if you think that he's going to agree more with George or Bill just say George or Bill who do you think is going to be more influenced by George's father George Soros or Bill Maher just show me in the comments see mostly George's and you and that wouldn't be surprising right you'd expect the father to have a big impact and some say Bill yeah maybe uh I don't know it looks like a 75 George 25 bill coincidence um you could be right now I do think that George will be um influential on all the things that he was already agrees with for example I think the fact that George Soros was a Democrat largely guarantees that Alex will be one has been one will continue to be one so I would say I would agree that George Soros is the primary influence because he's going to do some con some democrat liberal stuff with his money well I would say that Bill Maher is going to be more influential on a narrow question such as the prosecutors now that doesn't mean he'll stop funding him because I've always thought that the funding was sort of indirect you know I don't think he wanted these specific outcomes he just got them um so I'm gonna I'm gonna say that the sun will here's my prediction that the sun will modify the things that weren't working because when somebody takes over they do like to put their fingerprint on it might be too early because the father's still alive so at the moment he probably just has to do whatever his father wants you know just out of respect but I would say fairly soon when his father is a little bit more adamant I think the Sun is going to look to correct the excesses and by that I mean giving money to Black lives matter looks like a mistake in retrospect wouldn't you say it didn't really look like that much of a mistake when it happened but at the moment it looks like a huge mistake it's just it wasn't obvious at the time now what about the prosecutors when when they when George Soros first had the idea of not putting people in jail for non-violent crimes do you think that maybe that sounded like a good idea on paper because I actually think I might have been persuaded by that I've heard the argument if you hear the argument separate from what actually happened and you just heard it in a conceptual State stop putting people in jail for little stuff because once they get a criminal record you know they get locked into the criminal path because you can't get a good job and you you know then you get taken away and then your kid doesn't have a father and then there's a whole whole ripple effect so I'm very much in agreement with George Soros that arresting people for small crimes can make the life of their child their child much worse however it's clear that nobody thought it through to the ultimate conclusion which is it destroys the retail uh industry entirely and turns everybody into a criminal because it's just too easy to steal and get away with it now do you believe that 37 year old uh you know college educated Alex Soros thinks that that what's happening right now with the liberal prosecutors is working do you think if you were alone in a room with him and said look do you think that worked is that why you planned and a lot of you're almost all say yes okay I'm going to disagree with you and say that there's no chance he would say that not at all I would put the odds at exactly zero that he would say that worked out because he's looking at the same news you are right remember the Democrat news is saying it didn't work it's not just the Republicans it is now a I would say it's a matter of obvious fact that both the left and right can see that the cities have been destroyed by rampant crime so you think that if you were alone with him in a room he would say that worked out the way we wanted do you really believe that you really believe he would say yes this is what we were looking for all right you got a little quiet there didn't you no there's no chance he thinks that worked there really is no chance I'll I'll respect your disagreement okay I will respect your disagreement because I know where it comes from it's it's not it's not an unthoughtful disagreement it's a thoughtful disagreement so I respect I disagree completely I think there's zero chance that privately he would say it worked do you think I should ask him if he'll talk to me maybe do an interview I think that would be very interesting I understand that he's a Berkeley graduate somebody said so we both got that Berkeley Cal Bears thing going so maybe you say yes maybe say yes anyway if I were him I would say yes because uh for someone who has a mostly conservative audience as I do I would I would give him the friendliest interview because I don't start with the assumption that they're all guilty of everything they might be I don't rule it out I'm just I don't start with the assumption that he's guilty I just don't have that assumption so maybe you wouldn't talk to me I think that would make everything better all right um let's see I've said this a few different ways but I'll try it another way um in 2023 when somebody goes in public and says no one is above the law how do you hear that because in 2023 what I hear is I'm going to do some dictatorship now I'm going to take away your civil rights that's what I hear I no longer hear this as some kind of a statement of you know a constitutional lofty ideals it just sounds like something the dictator says before they put your ass in jail oh nobody's above the law and you're in jail it's amazing how that changed in the era of trump because we can see now I mean it's really really really obvious that the law is being applied differently you know you see the shoplifters coming in and taking what they want is that is that equal application of the law not even close is Trump being treated the way anybody would be treated well according to uh the most storied and qualified lawyers of all time no not even close so to imagine that somebody could go in front of the public and say nobody is above the law and not look like a idiot it's amazing they even still say it it's just the dumbest thing you could say in 2023 when it's just so obviously not true yeah it's not true it doesn't even make you look smart when you say it it now makes you look like you're a criminal basically you know what what I see it when Jack Smith said that I immediately thought he was just a criminal now not necessarily breaking a law but not acting in the benefit of the Republic not doing the job he was tasked with doing and doing a hit piece on an American citizen that happens to be an ex-president that's what I saw to me it just looked like a criminal talking like a criminal yeah why do you rob banks well that's where the money is that's what it sounded like to me all right you following this UFO whistleblower all right uh I believe that almost none of you believe the UFOs are real and therefore Don't Believe The Whistleblower am I right let me do another quick survey do you believe that the Whistleblower talking about the aliens being in you know being possessed how many of you believe it's true yes or no all knows on locals everyone is now 25 percent all right uh we got uh sprinkling of yeses on You.

Tube well let me speak to the yeses the people who think it's true we now have new information that The Whistleblower says that at least one of the vehicles these captured UFOs is bigger on the inside than on the outside ah huh where have I heard that before it's a structure some kind of a vessel or a ship that's bigger on the inside than the outside huh well there's Snoopy's doghouse Snoopy's doghouse is bigger on the inside than the outside and uh let's see in Doctor Who there's the Tardis looks like a phone booth but when you go inside it's a whole big ship yeah so how do you feel now you you those of you who think that UFO story and The Whistleblower true uh that sound good still and he also added that one of the crafts is the size of a football field yeah there's something the size of a football field that crash landed and nobody got a picture you mean no but nobody outside the government nobody got a picture yeah so you're still feeling pretty good about that uh that UFO whistleblower feeling pretty confident about that all right well the Unabomber died in prison and some are saying it was suicide and some were saying I don't know I I'm not interested in the unibomber can I get can I get a vote of agreement here we don't care about the Unabomber do we nobody cares you know but yeah here's a true story the Unabomber actually caused me some problems so the Unabomber and his situation actually overlapped with my personal life true story so when the so when stuff was blowing up and I make sure I got this story right this I think this was the Unabomber maybe it was a different bomber but uh weren't they saying that the packages had some way to tell that they were uh maybe a problem because it'd be something in the return address it sounded like a tree or something what there was some kind of signal that uh or no return address or something yeah so there was something we were told that if the if the package looked um sketchy that you should call the police well I actually got a sketchy package that had a return address that had one of the one of the sort of keywords in it that tells you it might be a bomb so I actually called the police and uh they they took a look at it and uh I was a public figure so I was you know potentially somebody in the Target list and it was just just a fan Mr fan sent me something unsolicited but it did uh ruin my day all right let's talk about Ukraine and then the pyramids so there's very little news out of Ukraine and even the very little news is not reliable most of the news is uh either Russian or Ukrainian source showing a tank that got blown up by the other side or something like that basically you can't tell anything from the videos and reports just nothing at all but the reports the news says that maybe Ukraine took two Villages without much resistance that means about nothing because it's not like every village is equally protected so I don't know maybe they weren't strategic so there's basically no news um but the the thinking of the experts is that the objective of the Ukrainian counter-offensive is to cut off the land bridge to Crimea does that sound right they want to cut off the land bridge to Crimea but does that really mean that they plan to take Crimea back here's my prediction for the day prediction for the day for addiction for the day for addiction for the day that Ukraine's objective is to cut off Crimea and then negotiate because I don't think they want to take Crimea that would be that would probably Wipe Out the whole Army in the process but they want to make it look like they could they want to make it look like any moment now we're going to take your Crimea away we we took your land bridge away so it's harder to reinforce it but we're going to take your Crimea back and then they're going to negotiate that's what I think I saw Biden talking about when he was vice president his trips to Ukraine how many of you know how many trips Biden made to Ukraine when he was vice president do you know how many uh so he's saying 25 I think it was in the High Teens it was like 17 or something now how many times does any vice president go to any specific country during the term of the vice presidency how many times has Kamala Harris gone to Central America once once can you give me any good reason why a vice president would go to any foreign country 17 times any country for anything I can't thank you Eddie I can think of no legitimate government purpose for going there 17 times and by the way why didn't we know about it are you telling me that during the Obama presidency that Biden went to Ukraine 17 times and that was not news that nobody mentioned how many times he's going to this one place yeah there's clearly something very very wrong going on here clearly something wrong how is that not big news I never even cared about Ukraine until you know the the recent dust up are you telling me the Ukraine was so important that Biden would go there 17 times or whatever it was it's some number in that range uh and we would never even hear about it I don't believe I saw one story about that didn't you do you remember seeing any news story about the vice president traveling to another country how is that not a story I mean at least a mentioned somebody says only six times I'd Biden himself I saw a quote yesterday that was way more than six times now he might have been lying but I guess that's another story yeah that's too many times too many times there's something wrong there all right um we're gonna talk about the pyramids last because it's the most fun so I saw that there are a bunch of links to news stories claiming that those Canadian fires are most clearly caused by climate change at the same time that the satellite imagery shows that there were a whole bunch of fires sat at exactly the same time genuinely genuinely curious did the people who wrote those argue articles blaming climate change did they believe what they wrote yeah you're you're saying it's lightning but there's always been lightning there's never not been lightning right but whether it was lightning or whether it was arson and it certainly looks like arson But whichever it was neither of those have anything to do with forest fires because the number of forest fires is down it's not up it's down so but don't you wonder if the people who wrote this story is actually believed what they wrote because usually um because usually well anyway um yeah I just I'm just usually I think people believe what they write but this one doesn't look like yeah this doesn't look like they believed it or they or are they that clueless I mean it could go either way Rand Paul says there's a bunch of Republicans that are beating the drums of war with China what what I I'd like to I'd like to know their names who exactly thinks a war with China would be a good idea we actually have some members of Congress they have an R next to their name who are beating the drums for war are you kidding me who so uh RFK Jr was tweeting the Rand Paul thing and uh RFK JR says you know basically we should find a way to work with China because a war with China would just be insane I mean I don't know what else you could say about it it would be literally insane and China knows that right you don't start a war unless you have some chance of winning isn't that like the first rule of War you don't start a war unless you think you might win it who thinks they could win a war with China in the U.S how could that be anything but the you know a huge gut punch to civilization for the next 30 Years how could it be anything but that there's no there's no winning scenario that anybody can even imagine in their greatest imagination you can't imagine winning either side there's no way he had to make wins so why are they even talking about it now if you're talking about it as you know a thread or something like that as part of the negotiation okay that would be the the Trump method to just give them an idea it might happen but Rand Paul is suggesting that they're serious about it I I don't even know what to say about that how did those people get reelected I don't know but uh RFK says in a tweet about this he says ultimately our free market system is superior to China's centrally controlled one we can outcompete them in peaceful competition as long as we stop squandering our resources in Endless Foreign Wars most of that um the trouble is that how do you compete against low labor costs I mean I get that robots can help us a lot but ultimately you can't compete against that I mean you can move your business to another low labor costs place but you can't you know we're not going to lower the labor cost of America so we don't really have a way to compete against that directly but I I do agree with the general point you know between robots and moving our business elsewhere yeah there's a lot of stuff we can do and none of it requires a war so I like RFK Jr's instincts on this the best all right let's talk about pyramids so I watched a video on You.

Tube yesterday that makes some claims that I've seen before and I can't remember the name of the video the video I wish I could it's something like what what the heck or something I don't know but it's really good and all tweeted around if I run into it again but the the idea is this how many of you believe that the ancient Egyptians you know the direct descendants of the people who live there today how many of you think they built those pyramids and that they forgot how they did it does that sound does that sound remotely possible to you it doesn't to me honestly it never sounded real to me I just don't believe that the descendants used to know how to build pyramids but now they don't I no I'm sorry I just don't believe it yeah and there are some people who say the pyramids are older than uh the civilizations that are there and some people say it's aliens now do you know that they've never found a mummy a a dead leader in a pyramid and we were taught we were taught in school that these were burial tombs for the dead leaders they had never found one in there nor have they ever found evidence one has ever been in there there's one sarcophagus but it doesn't look like it ever had a body in it and the and the one sarcophagus is not even in an ornate pyramid it's in a pyramid that doesn't even have like wall writing so it doesn't look like it was even made for a leader it looks like it's a utility right all right so here's the theory that uh I'm actually a little bit convinced by it goes like this the the outside of the pyramids which have mostly crumbled with age used to have a a different kind of rock that was covering the rough edges so it's more smooth and that kind of rock we know has uh electrical insulation properties right you had electrical insulation properties I think it was limestone yeah now that alone doesn't tell you much because you know rocks have different qualities they just use limestone but the the Limestone was covering the base rocks and the base rocks were tell me what the base rocks was but it has it had a lot of crystal in it sandstone granite was it gravit whatever it was some kind of red granite somebody says but whatever that rock was apparently you had a lot of crystals in it now the nature of crystals is if you compress them they create electricity I'm sorry quartz quartz not crystals courts courts courts courts not crystals so there's courts of The Rock when you compress quartz it turns into electricity now if you were to have a quartz watch and you shook it the shaking itself would be enough to create electricity to run your watch yeah the Piezo yeah Piezo electric process now apparently at least one of the pyramids maybe all of them have an aquifer underneath and the aquifer would act to create noise and the noise would travel up through the chambers and create a vibration and the vibration that it would create would activate the courts because any movement of the quartz creates that little bit of electricity and because the pyramids are massive is sums up all those you know tiny little electrical signals until you have a massive electrical power plant and apparently there's some indication that the top of the pyramid was gold you know it was sort of like a electrical conductor situation now here's the fun part did you know that inventor Nikolai Tesla uh had plans to create a a generator that would send you electricity through the air so you didn't need power cables did you know that did you know that he built one and it worked so he could he could stand across the field with a just a light bulb in his hand and the light bulb would light up using the electricity that had flown through the air from his power plant at a distance it wasn't hypothetical he actually built it and it worked so he went to JP Morgan and he said to him J.P Morgan uh can you give me some money for this because Jacob Morgan was the richest guy and JP Morgan said no do you know why because JP Morgan owned the competing form of electricity Westinghouse he owned the companies that made telephone poles copper wires he he owned companies that made every part of the process of what you see as our modern grid so he said no and Tesla never built his machine so it looks like the pyramids are actually a Tesla you know in the in the form of Tesla kind of a power generating device that was designed to send electricity through the air to some recipient which would also explain why the you know the pyramids are largely in one area just like we would build a second power plant where a current power plant is I mean you would put them where you already had one but you needed a little more so I'm actually kind of persuaded by that theory I'm not going to say it's 100 true but I am now persuaded that there probably was a civilization that was advanced came before us and has died out um how did they learn that thousands of years ago the idea would be that there was once an advanced civilization that was not related necessarily to the ancient Egyptians but rather there was somebody who knew how to do this stuff and maybe had power over them or influence and worked with the locals because they needed a lot of Labor to do this stuff now I have another theory if it's true that the pyramids were about vibration which that's the theory that it had to vibrate at a certain level in order to put out the electricity and so that the entire design was to cause vibration of a specific type the Ancients who built that were big on vibrations do you think they could have used vibration to cut the rocks in other words could you let's say you had a saw or a wire I don't know something like that and you just use vibrations could you vibrate it enough that it would uh make a clean slice through a rock just a question I've never seen anybody try it but if they were if they were capable enough to create the pyramids as a power source would that and using vibrations would they also know enough have to use vibration to cut the Rock Maybe maybe there's an exact vibration that cuts Rock how about that if you were to try every every kind of vibration against a rock with you know some kind of cutting tool do you think it would be the same at every vibration but not I bet there's some if I oh you think it would be high pressure water can cause steel yeah I've also thought about the high pressure water because they could do that right so here here's how the Ancients could create a high pressure water cannon you because we know they they could move large rocks how would they do it they would uh just put large rocks on top of a container of water the large Rock would push it down and put pressure on it and then they've got a little hose thing and the pressure comes out because there's a giant rock on top of the water you know that with a seal so could the Ancients have built a a powerful high pressure water cannon I think they kind of yeah I think they could have it would be hard to get the uh the nozzle to work if they didn't have good metal I suppose but if they had a gold top on their pyramid they knew how to work with metal a little bit well okay maybe they had electricity so they just had power tools maybe that's it uh maybe they had the flex hose I just bought one of those they have no pictures so they never documented it uh all right what do you think of that theory would that explain everything to me that answers all the questions oh no it doesn't explain everything what would be unexplained by uh the Y files oh I think I think is that what I was talking about was that the Y files that might be the one I'm talking about we have a water a y in the name Dunning Kruger I'm not sure what sense you're using that stones are still a mystery yes don't do volume only elevation oh that that's true um check the hieroglyphics yeah the hieroglyphics apparently there are no hieroglyphics on any pyramids that show how the big rocks were moved can you believe that the most impressive amazing part of building a pyramid is how do you move those big rocks and there's not a single hieroglyphic that shows that move in any big rocks wouldn't that be like the most likely thing to be on the wall it's too dumb uh there's no yeah there's no there's also no pictures of the leaders on the walls which would suggest they're not very burial tombs canals and sluice Gates yes so one theory is that they use canals and sluice gates to float the rocks um which was a re I I saw the video on how they did that that was a reasonably good hypothesis yeah that was a reasonably good hypothesis all right that ladies and gentlemen is all I needed to talk about today it was there any story I missed anything in the news that you wish I had talked about everything is frequency and vibration you're right transgester that was just a meme um Sphinx is older than the pyramids yeah the Sphinx is uh now crack me up I'm wrong did I see that uh there's more than one Sphinx there's the Egyptian Sphinx but there's at least one other thing somewhere right there's one great one but there are other ones yeah in Las Vegas uh I I think the fact that there are other sphinxes built you know in the ancient times suggests that uh there's some common civilization that touched The Primitives all right um it's used to intimidate um all right I'm gonna say uh bye to You.

Tube thanks for joining the best live stream ever see you tomorrow

good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of human civilization

it's called a coffee with Scott Adams

and uh you're very lucky to be here

especially if you're seeing it live

and if you'd like to take your

experience up to the orgasmic levels of

euphoria that you know you deserve all

you need is a cup or a mug or a glass a

tanker jealous of Stein a canteen

children flask a vessel

you also need my microphone to put on

yes yes yes

thank you for the assist

and join me now for the unparalleled

pleasure of the dope immediate of the

day the thing that makes everything

better is called the simultaneous sip

that happens now cow

ah

much better

well I just saw a tweet from Elon Musk

who says a friend of his who lives in

San Francisco

I had a bullet go through his wall of

his apartment yesterday

but that's not the interesting part

the interesting part is it's the second

time

imagine living in San Francisco and on

two occasions two separate occasions a

bullet goes ripping through your

apartment

now I have what I call the three bullet

rule

if I'm living someplace the first two

times a bullet goes ripping through my

walls

I'm okay but that third time I'm

starting to see a pattern

by the third time I'm like huh

I'm going to start to evaluate my

options

now I remind you of my experience in San

Francisco in the uh let's see it was the

80s

San Francisco in the 80s

say my apartment was completely cleaned

out once

so I got robbed while I was at work

my car was broken into and my stereo was

stolen four times I think

um

let's see uh I was mugged once by a

giant knife

uh once by uh Gone on the street

twice when I was a bank teller people

pulled guns on me one time I was walking

down the street and somebody put a gun

at my head and pulled the trigger but

there was no uh there was no round in

the chamber

he thought that was pretty funny

um so that was my experience

it wasn't unusual to come walking home

and see you know somebody being beaten

to death in the sidewalk

it was sort of a normal experience where

I lived

so I'm not so sure that San Francisco is

worse than the 80s but it's definitely

worsening

um Conor McGregor attended the Miami

Heat game and I guess they were going to

do a little promotional thing where he

would come out and he would humorously

get in a fight with him

with the Miami Heat mascot

in which he would punch the mascot and

that would be you know part of the part

of the show

so he punches the mascot and the mascot

goes down as you'd expect and then he

gets on top of the muskin mascot and he

and he gives it a kill shot

well anyway the mascot went to the

hospital

ah and I'm wondering I'm wondering how

that job was described to the mascot

you know was there a meeting beforehand

in which the mascot probably has a boss

right there's a boss of the mascots and

the boss was like Hey we've got the best

idea you're gonna love this and the

mascot says great great what is it what

is it it goes you're going to share the

stage with Conor McGregor

of the mascots like really really the

like most famous MMA fighter of all time

Conor McGregor yes that's great that's

great

well there's one more thing really what

is it

well Conor McGregor is going to punch

you

oh

what

yeah Conor McGregor is going to punch

you

well I thought you I thought you said

Conor McGregor is going to punch me yeah

he's gonna punch you really hard it'll

be hilarious watch this

but uh but he's gonna hold his punch

right

he's not going to give me like a full

force MMA punch right

oh no no it's probably going to be

three-quarter speed tops

and besides your mascot head will be

protecting you won't it

Well turns out that mascot head's a

little softer than you'd expect and uh a

75 punch from a MMA fighter is kind of

hurts kind of hurts so he's in the

hospital anyway it's not funny that

somebody got hurt but I like management

I like bad management stories so to me

this just sounds like a bad management

story like they could have worked out a

few more details before sending them out

to get punched by the the strongest

puncher in the world

[Laughter]

I'm sorry I shouldn't be laughing at

that

I feel terrible about myself I really do

but

um you might know that I treat my

mascots the same way

so got that in common

all right uh so now I've heard Alan

dershowitz take on the Trump legal risk

from all of his boxes of Secrets

and dershowitz basically says there's no

risk

and then I read Jonathan Turley and he's

got a slightly different take on it but

for different reasons

no risk there's just no risk all right

here's what dershowitz says basically

most of the charges look like they can

be easily defended against

in other words the defense against most

of what he did with the records

including not giving him back I guess

doesn't doesn't rise the level of Crim

of a a criminal case

but might be a civil case of some kind

and should have been handled that way or

some other kind of crime so it wouldn't

be the kind of thing that would keep him

out of office or put him in jail

so there's most of the charges are in

that easy to dismiss or easy to defend

uh concept because of some I don't know

some records act that defines this area

pretty well so that's what dershowitz

says he says there's one thing you have

to worry about though there's one one

part that might put him in jeopardy

and that's the audio that they have that

alleges that he had a document that he

even described as something that

shouldn't be shown to people that maybe

he showed to somebody

maybe he showed to somebody which would

be pretty bad if it were you know a

really super secret document which he

said it was he said it was still a

secret

and now this is the funny part in

dershowitz in the in the process of

simply talking about the case

he offered up the Perfect Defense

for the only part of the case that he

thought was risky which is the audio

here's the Perfect Defense which do you

think is more likely now this depends on

the writer's testimony as well right so

you'd have to hear what the writer says

about it but which of these two things

do you think is more Trump I'm going to

give you a uh an example

I'll be Trump now oh man I got these

secret documents here got these secret

documents

um why don't you read them here here you

go once you read them well I say

silently

all right

okay you got it did you read those

all right so that's that's one thing

that could have happened and that would

be really bad wouldn't you agree if he

handed it to the writer and says take a

look at this read this

that would be very bad

does that sound like Trump

is is your imagination of who Trump is

they would hand somebody a document when

he's the star of the meeting right the

meeting is about him

but he's going to give you a document

and maybe sit there silently while you

read it

that sounds just like him doesn't it

all right let me give you another

possibility that might have happened

this might be closer to it

wow I got these secret things that I can

see because I'm a president you can't

whoa well you imagine if you saw these

if I showed you these well let me just

describe what's here there's some bad

things in here but wow wow you can't see

it this is some secret stuff whoa whoa

whoa I was President so I could see it

well I'm not president now so maybe you

know but uh yeah I didn't really do that

which one sounds more like Trump

it's not even close

I don't think there's I don't think

there's a chance in the world

they handed it to him and he waited

while he read it

do you I mean seriously

now like I said if the writer who was in

the room and I guess it was one other

gentleman in the room if they said

that's what happened then probably

that's what happened

but it's really hard to believe

and if it turns out that all he did was

you know flash it and talk about you

know overall the topic

probably not a big deal

so the dershowitz take is that it's all

easy to defend

and that that's the most dangerous part

and we don't know all the details but if

it sounds the way it sounds on audio in

other words if the story is just what

you hear on the audio

there's no real risk

so that's the dershowitz take

the Jonathan Turley take I think is

cleaner and also to the same point but

his take is there's no way you could

complete this trial before the election

you know because everything takes years

so if they don't complete it before the

election Trump can pardon himself now

that's totally's View now maybe the

Supreme Court would disagree

but it wouldn't stop him from doing it

would it I mean maybe it would go to the

Supreme Court but I think they might

agree

my take is that the Supreme Court is not

going to say there is something in the

Constitution that forbids the president

from pardoning themselves

because if if the Constitution wanted

that in there probably be there if it's

not there it's not there that should be

the end of the story you know I'm no

constitutional

scholar

but if it's not in there it would be

hard to imagine it was assumed to be

there like why would you assume that

under on what basis could he make the

assumption that they meant it to be

there I I see no argument for it

whatsoever

all right so

it appears to me that the Democrats are

trying to uh win the next election

via a process of proving that everything

Trump said about them is true

and that it really is a Witch Hunt by

the way dershowitz says

fairly directly yeah this this is a

political Act

would you feel comfortable if you were

the Democrats and and somebody who is a

lifelong Democrat

dershowitz and also you know leading

scholar of this exact kind of stuff

tells you it's obviously political

there's no doubt about it there's not

even a gray area this is obviously

political

to me this is absolutely confirming

everything that Trump said about

uh people going after him and they would

go after you next because they're going

after supporters too

so Trump is gaining energy he is

flipping uh people who were

let's say in the past they were

anti-trump or at least didn't care

and they've radicalized people to care a

lot about defending Trump they've also

taken everybody else out of the news do

you remember that big DeSantis news

I don't

wasn't ready I don't know you know a few

people got into the race but the only

thing you heard about them as they got

into the race

do you remember what Chris Christie's

policies are

no you don't nobody knows I mean some

Republican stuff I guess how about that

Mike Pence

who

who

just took him right out of the news

so I don't

I don't know what the Democrats are

thinking

are they thinking this is a good play

because on day one it looked like it was

I have to admit on day one when I heard

all the charges and the 37 charges and

the the pictures of the boxes in the

bathroom at Mar-A-Lago and I thought to

myself oh that's worse than I thought

all this time I thought it was going to

be no big deal but it's oh it's so much

worse

and it took exactly what 48 hours

for you know let's say dershowitz and

Turley to weigh in two people that I

trust on this stuff

yeah to basically say nah it's another

one of those walls are closing and not

much to look at here now it'll be

interesting and you know the process has

to play through but I don't think

there's a risk it looks like they just

found the only way that you could

guarantee Trump would get elected

now some would say

that's their plan Scott their entire

plan is to look incompetent and look

like liars

until

Republicans

nominate Trump and then they can beat

him easily because he's so beatable in

the general I like him

let me ask you this if Trump quit today

which will never happen

and DeSantis became the you know

presumptive nominee

how long would it take for DeSantis to

be accused of something equally bad

different but just equally bad

about yeah about a minute

yeah he DeSantis would immediately

become the

anti-lgbtq Hitler right or or Mussolini

because they like to keep it nice and

racist that's how the Democrats like it

nice and racist call him moose lady

because he's Italian

so

all right well keep an eye on that but

it sure looks like they're trying to get

Trump elected

all right George Soros has retired I

guess you could call it that and handed

over control of his charitable stuff to

his uh 37 year old son I guess he's got

two sons and it was not obvious that the

the younger one would take over now you

say to yourself well Scott that makes no

difference whatsoever because the sun is

radicalized by the father

and uh the the sun will just take on you

know carry on and maybe the sun was in

charge for a long time anyway

maybe there's no difference at all

and maybe you're totally right

however I would like to inject this

little note of optimism

uh so Alex Soros is his name the Sun and

you know he does say that defeating

Trump is still important

you know he was definitely going to be

political and even more political

and he says as long as money is part of

the process

money will be part of the process he'll

be part of that money process

however here's something he said that

uh I feel

gives you cause for hope

he says that he's a Bill Maher

Republican

another and he said he went to bed

watching you know Bill Maher at night

so so now you you have a pretty good

shorthand for where he is politically

are you worried about that

would you be worried let's say it's true

let's say it's true

and I don't think you'd make that up

right that doesn't sound like something

you just come up with to sound good or

something like that that sounds real

my guess is he's genuinely a fan of Bill

Barr what is Bill Maher's opinion

of the liberal prosecutors

do you know his opinion it's not a

Democrat opinion

Bill Maher says it's gone too far and

that the cities are hell holes and I'm

sure that you would think that the

prosecutors are some part of that

problem

so does that mean that Alex oros

might be influenced by The Bill Maher

position that things have gone too far

and that there the craziness level has

just reached an unsustainable level for

the Republic

what do you think give me all right I'm

just going to pull you if you if you

think that he's going to agree more with

George or Bill just say George or Bill

who do you think is going to be more

influenced by George's father George

Soros or Bill Maher

just show me in the comments see mostly

George's and you and that wouldn't be

surprising right you'd expect the father

to have a big impact

and some say Bill

yeah maybe uh I don't know

it looks like a 75 George 25 bill

coincidence

um

you could be right

now I do think that George will be

um influential on all the things that he

was already agrees with for example

I think the fact that George Soros was a

Democrat

largely guarantees that Alex will be one

has been one will continue to be one

so I would say I would agree that George

Soros is the primary influence because

he's going to do some

con some democrat

liberal stuff with his money

well I would say that Bill Maher is

going to be more influential on a narrow

question

such as the prosecutors now that doesn't

mean he'll stop funding him because I've

always thought that the funding was sort

of indirect you know I don't think he

wanted these specific outcomes he just

got them

um so I'm gonna I'm gonna say that the

sun will here's my prediction

that the sun will modify the things that

weren't working

because when somebody takes over they do

like to put their fingerprint on it

might be too early because the father's

still alive so at the moment he probably

just has to do whatever his father wants

you know just out of respect but

I would say fairly soon when his father

is a little bit more adamant I think the

Sun is going to look to correct

the excesses

and by that I mean giving money to Black

lives matter looks like a mistake in

retrospect wouldn't you say

it didn't really look like that much of

a mistake when it happened

but at the moment it looks like a huge

mistake it's just it wasn't obvious at

the time

now what about the prosecutors

when when they when George Soros first

had the idea of not putting people in

jail for non-violent crimes

do you think that maybe that sounded

like a good idea on paper

because I actually think I might have

been persuaded by that

I've heard the argument if you hear the

argument separate from what actually

happened

and you just heard it in a conceptual

State stop putting people in jail for

little stuff because once they get a

criminal record you know they get locked

into the criminal path because you can't

get a good job and you you know then you

get taken away and then your kid doesn't

have a father and then there's a whole

whole ripple effect

so I'm very much

in agreement with George Soros

that arresting people for small crimes

can make the life of their child their

child

much worse

however it's clear that nobody thought

it through to the ultimate conclusion

which is it destroys the retail uh

industry entirely and turns everybody

into a criminal because it's just too

easy to steal and get away with it

now do you believe that 37 year old uh

you know college educated Alex Soros

thinks that that what's happening right

now with the liberal prosecutors is

working

do you think if you were alone in a room

with him and said look do you think that

worked

is that why you planned

and a lot of you're almost all say yes

okay I'm going to disagree with you and

say that there's no chance he would say

that

not at all

I would put the odds at exactly zero

that he would say that worked out

because he's looking at the same news

you are right remember the Democrat news

is saying it didn't work

it's not just the Republicans it is now

a I would say it's a matter of obvious

fact that both the left and right can

see that the cities have been destroyed

by rampant crime

so you think that if you were alone with

him in a room he would say that worked

out the way we wanted

do you really believe that you really

believe he would say yes this is what we

were looking for

all right you got a little quiet there

didn't you

no there's no chance he thinks that

worked there really is no chance

I'll I'll respect your disagreement

okay

I will respect your disagreement because

I know where it comes from it's it's not

it's not an unthoughtful disagreement

it's a thoughtful disagreement so I

respect I disagree completely I think

there's zero chance

that privately he would say it worked

do you think I should ask him if he'll

talk to me

maybe do an interview

I think that would be very interesting I

understand that he's a Berkeley graduate

somebody said

so we both got that Berkeley Cal Bears

thing going so maybe you say yes

maybe say yes

anyway if I were him I would say yes

because uh for someone who has a mostly

conservative audience as I do

I would I would give him the friendliest

interview

because I don't start with the

assumption that they're all guilty of

everything

they might be I don't rule it out I'm

just I don't start with the assumption

that he's guilty I just don't have that

assumption

so maybe you wouldn't talk to me I think

that would make everything better

all right um

let's see

I've said this a few different ways but

I'll try it another way

um

in 2023

when somebody goes in public and says

no one is above the law how do you hear

that

because in 2023 what I hear is I'm going

to do some dictatorship now

I'm going to take away your civil rights

that's what I hear

I no longer hear this as some kind of a

statement of you know a constitutional

lofty ideals it just sounds like

something the dictator says before they

put your ass in jail

oh nobody's above the law

and you're in jail

it's amazing how that changed in the era

of trump because we can see now

I mean it's really really really obvious

that the law is being applied

differently you know you see the

shoplifters

coming in and taking what they want

is that is that equal application of the

law not even close

is Trump being treated the way anybody

would be treated well according to uh

the most storied and qualified lawyers

of all time no not even close

so to imagine that somebody could go in

front of the public and say nobody is

above the law

and not look like

a idiot

it's amazing they even still say it it's

just the dumbest thing you could say in

2023 when it's just so obviously not

true

yeah it's not true it doesn't even make

you look smart when you say it it now

makes you look like you're

a criminal basically you know what what

I see it when Jack Smith said that I

immediately thought he was just a

criminal

now not necessarily breaking a law but

not acting in the benefit of the

Republic not doing the job he was tasked

with doing and doing a hit piece on an

American citizen that happens to be an

ex-president

that's what I saw to me it just looked

like a criminal talking like a criminal

yeah why do you rob banks well that's

where the money is

that's what it sounded like to me

all right you following this UFO

whistleblower

all right uh I believe that almost none

of you believe the UFOs are real

and therefore Don't Believe The

Whistleblower am I right let me do

another quick survey do you believe that

the Whistleblower talking about the

aliens being in you know being possessed

how many of you believe it's true

yes or no

all knows on locals everyone is now 25

percent

all right uh we got uh

sprinkling of yeses on YouTube

well let me speak to the yeses the

people who think it's true we now have

new information that The Whistleblower

says that at least one of the vehicles

these captured UFOs is bigger on the

inside than on the outside

ah

huh where have I heard that before

it's a structure

some kind of a vessel or a ship that's

bigger on the inside than the outside

huh well there's Snoopy's doghouse

Snoopy's doghouse is bigger on the

inside than the outside and uh let's see

in Doctor Who there's the Tardis looks

like a phone booth but when you go

inside it's a whole big ship

yeah so how do you feel now

you you those of you who think that UFO

story and The Whistleblower true uh that

sound good

still and he also added that one of the

crafts is the size of a football field

yeah there's something the size of a

football field that crash landed and

nobody got a picture

you mean no but nobody outside the

government nobody got a picture yeah

so you're still feeling pretty good

about that uh

that UFO whistleblower

feeling pretty confident about that

all right

well the Unabomber died in prison and

some are saying it was suicide and

some were saying

I don't know I I'm not interested in the

unibomber

can I get can I get a vote of agreement

here we don't care about the Unabomber

do we

nobody cares

you know but yeah here's a true story

the Unabomber actually caused me some

problems

so the Unabomber and his situation

actually overlapped with my personal

life

true story so when the so when stuff was

blowing up and I make sure I got this

story right this I think this was the

Unabomber maybe it was a different

bomber but uh weren't they saying that

the packages had some way to tell that

they were uh maybe a problem because

it'd be something in the return address

it sounded like a tree or something

what there was some kind of signal that

uh or no return address or something

yeah so there was something we were told

that if the if the package looked

um sketchy

that you should call the police

well I actually got a sketchy package

that had a return address that had one

of the one of the sort of keywords in it

that tells you it might be a bomb

so I actually called the police

and uh they they took a look at it and

uh I was a public figure

so I was you know potentially somebody

in the Target list

and it was just just a fan

Mr fan sent me something unsolicited

but it did uh ruin my day

all right

let's talk about Ukraine and then the

pyramids

so there's very little news out of

Ukraine and even the very little news is

not reliable most of the news is uh

either Russian or Ukrainian source

showing a tank that got blown up by the

other side

or something like that basically you

can't tell anything from the videos and

reports just nothing at all but the

reports the news says that maybe Ukraine

took two Villages without much

resistance

that means about nothing because it's

not like every village is equally

protected so I don't know maybe they

weren't strategic so there's basically

no news

um

but the the thinking of the experts is

that the objective of the Ukrainian

counter-offensive

is to cut off the land bridge to Crimea

does that sound right

they want to cut off the land bridge to

Crimea but does that really mean that

they plan to take Crimea back

here's my prediction for the day

prediction for the day for addiction for

the day for addiction for the day

that Ukraine's objective is to cut off

Crimea and then negotiate

because I don't think they want to take

Crimea that would be

that would probably Wipe Out the whole

Army in the process

but they want to make it look like they

could

they want to make it look like any

moment now we're going to take your

Crimea away we we took your land bridge

away so it's harder to reinforce it but

we're going to take your Crimea back

and then they're going to negotiate

that's what I think

I saw Biden talking about when he was

vice president his trips to Ukraine how

many of you know how many trips Biden

made to Ukraine when he was vice

president

do you know how many

uh so he's saying 25

I think it was in the High Teens it was

like 17 or something

now how many times does any vice

president go to any specific country

during the term of the vice presidency

how many times has Kamala Harris gone to

Central America

once

once

can you give me any good reason why a

vice president would go to any foreign

country 17 times any country for

anything

I can't thank you Eddie I can think of

no legitimate government purpose for

going there 17 times and by the way

why didn't we know about it

are you telling me that during the Obama

presidency

that Biden went to Ukraine 17 times and

that was not news

that nobody mentioned how many times

he's going to this one place

yeah there's clearly something very very

wrong going on here clearly something

wrong

how is that not big news I never even

cared about Ukraine until you

know the the recent dust up are you

telling me the Ukraine was so important

that Biden would go there 17 times or

whatever it was it's some number in that

range uh and we would never even hear

about it

I don't believe I saw one story about

that didn't you do you remember seeing

any news story about the vice president

traveling to another country

how is that not a story

I mean at least a mentioned

somebody says only six times I'd Biden

himself I saw a quote yesterday that was

way more than six times

now he might have been lying

but I guess that's another story

yeah that's too many times too many

times there's something wrong there

all right

um we're gonna talk about the pyramids

last because it's the most fun

so I saw that there are a bunch of links

to news stories claiming that those

Canadian fires are most clearly caused

by climate change

at the same time that the satellite

imagery shows that there were a whole

bunch of fires sat at exactly the same

time

genuinely genuinely curious

did the people who wrote those argue

articles blaming climate change did they

believe what they wrote

yeah you're you're saying it's lightning

but there's always been lightning

there's never not been lightning

right

but whether it was lightning or whether

it was arson and it certainly looks like

arson But whichever it was neither of

those have anything to do with forest

fires because the number of forest fires

is down it's not up it's down

so

but don't you wonder if the people who

wrote this story is actually believed

what they wrote

because usually

um

because usually

well anyway

um

yeah I just I'm just usually I think

people believe what they write but this

one doesn't look like yeah this doesn't

look like they believed it or they or

are they that clueless I mean it could

go either way

Rand Paul says there's a bunch of

Republicans that are beating the drums

of war with China

what

what

I I'd like to I'd like to know their

names

who exactly thinks a war with China

would be a good idea

we actually have some members of

Congress

they have an R next to their name who

are beating the drums for war

are you kidding me

who

so uh RFK Jr was tweeting the Rand Paul

thing

and uh RFK JR says you know basically we

should find a way to work with China

because a war with China would just be

insane I mean I don't know what else you

could say about it it would be literally

insane

and China knows that right you don't

start a war unless you have some chance

of winning

isn't that like the first rule of War

you don't start a war

unless you think you might win it

who thinks they could win a war with

China in the U.S how could that be

anything but the you know a huge gut

punch to civilization for the next 30

Years

how could it be anything but that

there's no there's no winning scenario

that anybody can even imagine in their

greatest imagination you can't imagine

winning

either side

there's no way he had to make wins so

why are they even talking about it

now if you're talking about it as you

know a thread or something like that as

part of the negotiation okay that would

be the the Trump method to just give

them an idea it might happen

but Rand Paul is suggesting that they're

serious about it

I I don't even know what to say about

that how did those people get reelected

I don't know

but uh RFK says in a tweet about this he

says ultimately our free market system

is superior to China's centrally

controlled one we can outcompete them in

peaceful competition as long as we stop

squandering our resources in Endless

Foreign Wars

most of that

um the trouble is that how do you

compete against low labor costs

I mean I get that robots can help us a

lot but ultimately you can't compete

against that I mean you can move your

business to another low

labor costs place but you can't you know

we're not going to lower the labor cost

of America so we don't really have a way

to compete against that directly but I I

do agree with the general point

you know between robots and moving our

business elsewhere yeah there's a lot of

stuff we can do and none of it requires

a war

so I like RFK Jr's instincts on this

the best

all right let's talk about

pyramids

so I watched a video on YouTube

yesterday that makes some claims that

I've seen before and I can't remember

the name of the video the video I wish I

could it's something like what

what the heck or something I don't know

but it's really good and all tweeted

around if I run into it again

but the the idea is this how many of you

believe that the ancient Egyptians you

know the direct descendants of the

people who live there today how many of

you think they built those pyramids

and that they forgot how they did it

does that sound

does that sound remotely possible to you

it doesn't to me honestly it never

sounded real to me I just don't believe

that the descendants used to know how to

build pyramids but now they don't

I no I'm sorry I just don't believe it

yeah and there are some people who say

the pyramids are older than uh the

civilizations that are there and some

people say it's aliens now do you know

that they've never found a mummy

a a dead leader in a pyramid

and we were taught we were taught in

school that these were burial tombs for

the dead leaders they had never found

one in there nor have they ever found

evidence one has ever been in there

there's one sarcophagus

but it doesn't look like it ever had a

body in it

and the and the one sarcophagus is not

even in an ornate pyramid it's in a

pyramid that doesn't even have like wall

writing so it doesn't look like it was

even made for a leader it looks like

it's a utility

right all right so here's the theory

that uh

I'm actually

a little bit convinced by

it goes like this

the the outside of the pyramids which

have mostly crumbled with age used to

have a a different kind of rock

that was covering the rough edges so

it's more smooth

and that kind of rock we know has uh

electrical insulation properties

right you had electrical insulation

properties I think it was limestone yeah

now that alone doesn't tell you much

because you know

rocks have different qualities they just

use limestone

but the the Limestone was covering the

base rocks and the base rocks were

tell me what the base rocks was but it

has it had a lot of crystal in it

sandstone

granite

was it gravit

whatever it was some kind of red granite

somebody says but whatever that rock was

apparently you had a lot of

crystals in it

now the nature of crystals is if you

compress them they create electricity

I'm sorry quartz quartz not crystals

courts courts courts courts not crystals

so there's courts of The Rock when you

compress quartz it turns into

electricity

now if you were to have a quartz watch

and you shook it

the shaking itself would be enough to

create electricity to run your watch

yeah the Piezo yeah Piezo electric

process

now apparently at least one of the

pyramids maybe all of them have an

aquifer underneath and the aquifer would

act to create noise and the noise would

travel up through the chambers and

create a vibration

and the vibration that it would create

would activate the courts

because any movement of the quartz

creates that little bit of electricity

and because the pyramids are massive

is sums up all those you know tiny

little electrical signals until you have

a massive electrical

power plant

and apparently there's some indication

that the top of the pyramid was gold

you know it was sort of like a

electrical conductor situation now

here's the fun part

did you know that inventor Nikolai Tesla

uh had plans to create a a generator

that would send you electricity through

the air so you didn't need power cables

did you know that did you know that he

built one and it worked

so he could he could stand across the

field with a just a light bulb in his

hand

and the light bulb would light up using

the electricity that had flown through

the air from his power plant at a

distance

it wasn't hypothetical

he actually built it and it worked

so he went to JP Morgan and he said to

him J.P Morgan uh can you give me some

money for this because Jacob Morgan was

the richest guy

and JP Morgan said no do you know why

because JP Morgan owned the competing

form of electricity Westinghouse he

owned the companies that made telephone

poles copper wires he he owned companies

that made every part of the process of

what you see as our modern grid

so he said no and Tesla never built his

machine

so it looks like the pyramids are

actually a Tesla

you know in the in the form of Tesla

kind of a power generating device that

was designed to send electricity through

the air to some recipient

which would also explain why the you

know the pyramids are largely in one

area

just like we would build a second power

plant where a current power plant is I

mean you would put them where you

already had one but you needed a little

more

so

I'm actually kind of persuaded by that

theory I'm not going to say it's 100

true

but I am now persuaded that there

probably was a civilization

that was advanced

came before us

and has died out

um

how did they learn that thousands of

years ago the idea would be that there

was once an advanced civilization that

was not related necessarily to the

ancient Egyptians but rather there was

somebody who knew how to do this stuff

and maybe had power over them or

influence and worked with the locals

because they needed a lot of Labor

to do this stuff

now I have another theory

if it's true that the pyramids were

about vibration

which that's the theory that it had to

vibrate at a certain level in order to

put out the electricity and so that the

entire design was to cause vibration of

a specific type

the Ancients who built that were big on

vibrations

do you think they could have used

vibration to cut the rocks

in other words could you let's say you

had a saw or a wire I don't know

something like that and you just use

vibrations

could you vibrate it enough that it

would uh make a clean slice through a

rock

just a question I've never seen anybody

try it but if they were if they were

capable enough

to create the pyramids as a power source

would that and using vibrations would

they also know enough have to use

vibration to cut the Rock

Maybe

maybe there's an exact vibration that

cuts Rock

how about that

if you were to try every every kind of

vibration against a rock with you know

some kind of cutting tool do you think

it would be the same at every vibration

but not I bet there's some if I

oh you think it would be

high pressure water can cause steel yeah

I've also thought about the high

pressure water

because they could do that right so here

here's how the Ancients could create a

high pressure water cannon

you because we know they they could move

large rocks

how would they do it they would uh just

put large rocks on top of a container of

water the large Rock would push it down

and put pressure on it and then they've

got a little hose thing and the pressure

comes out because there's a giant rock

on top of the water

you know that with a seal

so could the Ancients have built a a

powerful high pressure water cannon

I think they kind of

yeah I think they could have it would be

hard to get the uh the nozzle to work if

they didn't have good metal I suppose

but if they had a gold top on their

pyramid they knew how to work with metal

a little bit

well okay maybe they had electricity so

they just had power tools maybe that's

it

uh maybe they had the flex hose I just

bought one of those

they have no pictures so they never

documented it

uh

all right what do you think of that

theory

would that explain everything

to me that answers all the questions oh

no it doesn't explain everything what

would be unexplained by

uh the Y files oh I think I think is

that what I was talking about was that

the Y files

that might be the one I'm talking about

we have a water a y in the name

Dunning Kruger

I'm not sure what sense you're using

that

stones are still a mystery yes

don't do volume only elevation

oh that that's true

um check the hieroglyphics

yeah the hieroglyphics apparently there

are no hieroglyphics on any pyramids

that show how the big rocks were moved

can you believe that

the most impressive amazing part of

building a pyramid is how do you move

those big rocks and there's not a single

hieroglyphic that shows that move in any

big rocks

wouldn't that be like the most likely

thing to be on the wall

it's too dumb

uh there's no yeah there's no there's

also no pictures of the leaders on the

walls which would suggest they're not

very burial tombs

canals and sluice Gates

yes so one theory is that they use

canals and sluice gates to float the

rocks

um which was a re I I saw the video on

how they did that that was a reasonably

good hypothesis

yeah that was a reasonably good

hypothesis

all right that ladies and gentlemen is

all I needed to talk about today it was

there any story I missed

anything in the news that you wish

I had talked about

everything is frequency

and vibration you're right

transgester that was just a meme

um

Sphinx is older than the pyramids yeah

the Sphinx is

uh now crack me up I'm wrong did I see

that uh

there's more than one Sphinx

there's the Egyptian Sphinx but there's

at least one other thing somewhere right

there's one great one but there are

other ones

yeah

in Las Vegas uh I I think the fact that

there are other sphinxes built you know

in the ancient times

suggests that uh there's some common

civilization that touched The Primitives

all right

um it's used to intimidate

um

all right I'm gonna say uh bye to

YouTube thanks for joining the best live

stream ever see you tomorrow
