Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. There's never been a better time in your life. And if you'd like to enjoy this experience at levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a glass or a tankard or a chalice or a stein or a canteen or a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day. The thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now.

Ah, that's some good sipping.

Well, Peter Navarro is getting freed today. Is he already freed? Has anybody heard from him yet? I always wonder about the day that you're supposed to be freed from prison. Did they make it happen right away? Because I always wonder, do you wake up in the morning and say, "Oh, today's the day I go free," and then you call the guard over and say, "Today's the day, today's the day I go free." Then the guard looks at you and says, "That's after the shift. That's at 5:00." You're like, "Wait a minute. Today's the day I go free. I don't go like when I wake up?" No, sort of an end-of-day thing. You got to serve some more jail today. How's that work? Somebody says he's already out. It seems like they would do it first thing in the morning, doesn't it?

All right, well, we'll celebrate that in a bit. No, we're going to celebrate now with a sip of coffee. Who's with me? Peter Navarro sip of coffee. Peter, if you're watching, glad you're out. It's about time. Stronger, probably. Go.

All right. Everything seems to be going Trump's way, directly and indirectly. Seems like God has chosen him. I don't know if that's true, but it looks like it. Do you know how many coincidences or events it takes before somebody who doesn't even, I'm not even a believer, but even I think it looks like God has chosen Trump? It's getting harder and harder to deny at this point.

All right. He's out. Peter Navarro is out anyway.

Gold Bar Bob, New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez, he's found guilty of taking money from some Egyptian people. As Greg Gutfeld said last night on Gutfeld, he sounded like a pyramid scheme because he took money from Egyptians. Oh, anyway, it's pretty funny. But also from a Qatari or their government. So here's the question. Isn't it lucky that there was just that one criminal in Congress? Thank goodness we got that one guy who's trading favors for money. We finally got that one guy. It makes me think he must have pissed off the intelligence service or something. He must have made somebody mad who normally would just let things go. It's like, we can make some kind of an example out of Gold Bar Bob.

Well, there's an update on Biden's brain. Apparently before Trump was nearly assassinated, he had a Zoom call with a bunch of moderate Democrats. And the call went like this: "President Biden, what do you plan to do to resurrect your campaign and get it going again?" Well, anyway, so something like that. So reportedly it was bad. It was really bad. But here's what I don't understand. How was it that he looked completely coherent in the evening when he talked about the assassination attempt? How did they drug him up? Or is it just totally random? Because he looked presidential, but he couldn't do a Zoom call earlier that day. This is all very mysterious.

Well, so Biden is talking about Supreme Court limits. Well, actually term limits. And I saw in the comments that some people are saying that he can't do it, he doesn't have the authority. And the interesting thing would be if he tried to institute term limits and there was a legal objection and it got appealed. Am I wrong that the Supreme Court gets to decide on its own whether it can have term limits? Because it will decide whether the ruling was constitutional or not. Do we have the absurd situation where the Supreme Court will vote on whether they get fired? Now that'll be fun. I'm assuming there'll be all kinds of legal analyses that are arcane and weird and don't seem obvious.

But unconfirmed miracle drugs. What are we talking about? Somebody's talking about the miracle drugs to get Biden to talk. Okay, I'm on.

Rasmussen has a poll on what people think of the shooter's motives. Forty percent of likely voters think he's just mentally ill. But forty-one percent believe it was mainly caused by the Democrats, basically the rhetoric against Trump. So forty-one percent of the country believes that the way Biden and the Democrats were talking caused an assassination attempt. And I've got a feeling that some of those forty percent who just think it's mental illness, do they think Trump was chosen randomly? If your opinion was that the reason for the shooting was mental illness, do you think he randomly chose the president or randomly from mental illness? Now, mental illness or not, he picked a specific person and the hardest one to get. So it had to be a little bit about something about Trump. And how would a twenty-year-old know anything about Trump? Their opinions are assigned by the media. These are assigned opinions. So I would say that the forty percent who say he's mentally ill is really the same as the forty-one percent who said it's caused by the rhetoric. To me this looks like eighty-one percent of people think the rhetoric caused it. Now if he was also mentally ill, you know, that's a contributing factor. But certainly the rhetoric, no matter what, no matter how sane he was, he didn't randomly pick the guy that they've been calling Hitler for years.

So then there's a quote from JD Vance that says the central premise of the Biden campaign is that Trump was an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. And the rhetoric led directly to the attempt of assassination. Apparently sixty-one percent of likely voters agreed with that quote. So that would suggest that at least some of the people who thought mental illness was part of it also think the rhetoric was part of it too. So that makes sense. Split the difference.

All right. So Dan Bongino, who I would consider one of the best voices on the whole topic of how the shooter did what he did and the Secret Service, etc., Bongino is the one to listen to. He's got the best insight on that, I would think. But he said he had an unimpeachable source that there was a police officer whose job it was to secure that area, apparently did not show up for work. And there's no word yet why. Is there an update on that? I didn't see an update this morning. But the unimpeachable source says there should have been somebody on the roof and the roof guy didn't show up. But we don't know why the roof guy didn't show up.

Now that still makes the possibility that there was some shenanigans, because we don't know why the roof guy didn't show up. However, I remind you that so far every single part of the story is consistent with the Dilbert filter that people are way less capable than you imagine they are and that people can make way more mistakes than you think possible. And DEI has probably infected the competence of the entire operation. Plus they had temps. I call them temps. They weren't the regular crew. So you had lots of reasons for incompetence. But I will admit that every part of the story is also compatible with a wild plot. I don't know how you can rule it out exactly. How do you rule out, well, there was a secret plot that we can't find? But let me show you this if I can make this work.

Here's a, Peter Duke went through the effort of putting together an aerial map that shows the location of stuff. Now you can't see it too clearly on my screen. If you want to see the good one with the high resolution, go to my feed on X. It'll be there this morning. And anyway it shows the locations of the shooter, the people who got shot, and some locations that the people who were conspiracy theorists might have, not be right, but the conspiracy theorists are imagining a second shooter and they think they see evidence of it, etc.

I'm going to say that confirmation bias would get you all the way there. Meaning that even though you're pretty sure that you've seen evidence that the shot could not have come from one place and there must have been multiple shooters and you heard too many and something bounced off a railing and somebody got shot who was in the wrong place, it couldn't have happened, must have been somebody else. So anyway, all that stuff is swirling around. In my opinion the hypothesis that it was part of a bigger plot and somebody else was involved is still live. That's a live hypothesis. The competing one that it was just massive incompetence like we see everywhere else all the time is also fully alive. So you've got two theories that are living completely. I mean both of them, you can't put a glove on them. I'd love to say that the Dilbert filter that it's just incompetence is the one that's better because the other one has some flaws. But the other one doesn't really have any flaws. It looks completely consistent with some kind of a larger plot. Doesn't mean it is, but it seems completely consistent with that.

Now one of the things we found out is that the shooter had a remote control and had a bomb, or actually two bombs, in his car in the parking lot. And people are saying, what's that for? They also say, how did he know how to make a bomb with a remote control? Is that something you could look up on the internet? And if he was looking up that kind of stuff on the internet and he didn't have any social media presence, none of this makes sense, does it? And if you could make an IED that you could detonate from a distance, wouldn't he use that? And why did he have it in the first place? If he's going to shoot, why does he need the IEDs? Somebody said it would be to create a diversion. So you shoot the president, you blow up a car, everybody looks at the car, you run away. Maybe. I've got a feeling it was more that he wanted to, if he got into the car, I think he was thinking to himself that if he escaped long enough to get into the car and if they caught him in the car, it would be better to blow up the car with himself in it. So it might have been a future suicide attempt in case he got halfway escaped and they pulled over the car and then he could blow up the car and something like that. So we don't know. But I have real questions about a guy who could put together a remote control bomb. I don't know how. I have no idea how hard that is. I mean obviously it happens in the Middle East all the time, but it seems like that's a little bit suggestive of some help.

Now do you believe that he has no social media or do you believe they're hiding it from you? Because here's the professional liar tell. I've told you that there's regular liars, just politicians, right? All the politicians are just sort of normal liars. But then there's a special elite group of liars that the Democrats bring out when they've got the big lie, the really big ones, the ones that nobody else is even willing to talk about because it's just ridiculous. So Swalwell is already out. And Swalwell is one of the group of designated liars that they sent out when they've got a whopper to tell. And he's telling that the shooter was a registered Republican and that he had Trump signs at his house. Do you know what Swalwell left out? He doesn't have a house. It's his parents' house. He lived with his parents. But the person who lives with the parents doesn't get to decide what signs are on the front lawn. So there is evidence that the parents are Republican. There is evidence that the shooter is registered as Republican. Now if the shooter registered as Republican, does that mean anything? Maybe yes, maybe no. I'm a registered Democrat and you're listening to me. So you can't trust what people register as. I can confirm that. So we don't know if that means anything.

We saw pictures of him wearing an American flag shirt not too long ago, which suggests he had some patriotic leanings, which suggests a little more Republican leaning than not. He obviously was comfortable with a gun and guns in the house, which again is suggesting Republican. But the fact that Swalwell is the one who has to come out and tell you he was a Republican strongly suggests that they know that's not the case. He's an indicator of the opposite. So if you see Swalwell, Schiff or Brennan or Clapper, they're all opposite guys. Whatever they tell you, it's the opposite. Because they only bring them out when they've got a whopper to tell. It's pretty consistent.

All right. Now by the way, if you wonder why I sound like I'm healthy today and last night I sounded like I was going to die, if you heard me on the man cave livestream, I had some kind of allergic reaction. So I thought I was dying of COVID last night, but it was some kind of massive allergic reaction. All better now. So it wasn't sickness. It was something else. I do blame my sloped roof. I was feeling fine and then somebody said, "But Scott, you have a sloped roof." Next thing I know I was near death. So sloped roofs, very, very dangerous. Stay away from them.

Well, Jake Tapper and the CNN crew got layered, as they say. Laura Loomer did the, what do you call it, the sneak attack where they're walking from one place to the other and you try to yell at them interview questions that they're not going to ask. So I guess there were three different entities that all are after CNN for being fake news. There's no real story to that except that CNN became the news. Have you noticed that the news is the news? Right? Because even though we're talking about an assassination attempt, that's the top news. What was the main cause of the assassination attempt? Well, according to the Rasmussen poll, there's a pretty big chunk of Americans who say the news is the problem. The news. Because would you even know that the Democrats were saying bad things about Trump? Well no, it's the news. It's not that the Democrats said it. I think if the only thing that happened was Democrats said bad things, you'd say, "Ah, politics." But if you turn on the thing you think is your news and it's MSNBC and you see people who you think know more than you because they're the news and they're telling you that Hitler is going to get reelected, maybe you believe it. So I would say the news is the news. I think the news is the cause of the assassination attempt. I think the news is the reason you believe the fine people hoax because they won't debunk it. I think the news is the reason you believe the January 6 hoax. Other people do not. We'll talk about that.

So really the news is the news. And I think Jake Tapper is the news. He's not just the person who reported. He's the news. Because why has he been saying the things he's been saying? By the way, I don't think he's the worst of the worst or anything. He's just in that conversation. So yeah, once the news becomes the news, you need to correct. Yeah, you're going to have to find something.

All right. I don't know if you saw the story. Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway, who some people think is my clone but he's not, he's not my clone. I disavow him because he got, he was on a podcast making some assassination jokes. I'm not going to repeat it, but he made an assassination joke. And what some people think was too soon. Now I feel that it wasn't so much a too-soon story. You know, I'm not the one who's going to cancel somebody for a joke, even one I don't like. You know, I have to be consistent. I'm not the one who's going to cancel somebody for a joke, even a poor-taste joke. I tell jokes in poor taste nearly every day, often in public. So it's more revealing about what they actually think. And I do think that there are quite a few people who want people like me to be literally dead, like actually literally dead. Now why is that? Is it because they accurately know things I've said? Is it because they accurately know things Trump has said and done? No, it's the news. The news is the story again.

If you think this is a story about Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway having some opinions you don't like that were stated in a way that became public, that's not exactly the story. The story is they're victims too, meaning that they are just as brainwashed as most of the world actually. So the brainwashing is the story and it's the news. The news is brainwashing people to say things that when you look at them you say, "My God." But moreover it also tells you something about their bubble. How did you not know that that would be taken really, really badly? Because they act like, you know, people are going to love it. I think that's the problem. That Jack Black Tenacious D concert that got cancelled because one of the bandmates said something pro-assassination. I think that you say that in front of a crowd of people because you're so in your bubble that it doesn't occur to you that half of them might be deeply, deeply offended by that. And they were. Probably, I don't know if it was half, but a lot.

Anyway, Biden apparently, his Department of Energy has an AI roadmap. Now you might say, what does the Department of Energy have to do with AI? Well, AI will suck up massive amounts of energy, so much there wouldn't be enough left for human beings literally. So we've got a really big problem and it might not be solved by building more power plants because it takes a long time to build a nuke facility, for example. But one of the things they want to do is figure out how to make AI supercomputers more energy efficient, which totally seems like that's worth doing. So in our highly contentious world I'd like to say that looks like good work. I have no problem with that. I think having my government do some kind of a nationalist initiative to try to make the AI supercomputer more energy efficient so it doesn't suck up all our energy and we all die in the fields, that just seems like a solid good idea. So sometimes we can say that the Biden administration did something right. I hope this is it. I don't know all the details but I hope.

Well, meanwhile some what are being called Trump allies, you have to watch out for this story. That's your first signal that there's something up. A Trump ally? What's that tell you? I haven't even told you the story yet. But if it starts with Trump allies, it's going to be something that somebody's going to try to smear Trump with that did not come from Trump. You all know that, right? Any story that starts with Trump allies, because that's how the Project 2025 thing started. And then Trump has to explain, I basically don't know what's in there. What I heard I don't like. Right? But then people say, oh but they're your allies. And then I heard Van Jones saying that the Republican Party hasn't done enough to get rid of the white supremacists, the racists in the party. Now how dumb do you have to be as a consumer of news to think that's a good point? That the Republicans haven't done enough to get rid of the bad people in the party. You know that Republicans don't have any control over that, right? They can't excommunicate people. People can register any way they want and then they can say anything they want and then they can vote. Free speech is still possible even if you hate it, which is really the entire point of free speech, is that it allows the stuff you don't like. And what are the Democrats doing to get rid of their bad people?

I mean, so even Van Jones has retreated to a really stupid point. Let me be blunt. And I know he's too smart to think it's a good point. So if a smart person has to use a stupid point that somehow Republicans could excommunicate the people they don't like in the party, if all he's got left is a stupid point, and you know he knows it's stupid because he's smart, right? If he were stupid I'd say, hmm, does he not know that's a bad point? No, he's very smart. He knows it's a bad point. It's all he's got. They're basically out of ammunition. So you got to go to the stupid stuff. Really. And we'll talk about January 6 in a bit.

All right. So anyway the Trump allies have crafted an AI executive order that they'd like Trump to sign on to. And it's been viewed exclusively by the Washington Post. Do you see the second tell? Do you think the Trump allies are really ones that Trump has endorsed to do this work for him? No. And do you think if it were Trump allies and Trump liked it and the allies were all on the same page, do you think that it would be released only to the Washington Post? Or maybe leaked. We don't know if it was released or leaked. No. The Washington Post is not a credible entity. The Trump allies are not a credible description of anybody. And they have some kind of Manhattan Project idea for a military AI and slashing burdensome regulations. I would say I would not believe any part of that story. It could be some elements are true, but it's coming from such a non-credible place you should just discount it entirely. If later some credible entity that's not the Washington Post says it's true, well then maybe upgrade the likelihood there's a story here. Then you got to see who these Trump allies are because you know how much have they actually talked to Trump about any of this? And would JD Vance think it's a good idea? Would Vivek think it's a good idea?

By the way, how much do you love the fact that nothing stupid can get to Trump anymore? Think about it. Trump now has a smart filter that he surrounded himself with that's largely impenetrable. There is no way that something just stupid is going to get all the way to Trump and turn into a policy. Because you've got Vivek standing in the way. You've got JD Vance standing in the way. You've got Elon Musk standing in the way. You've got most of Silicon Valley's smartest venture capitalists, we'll talk about in a moment, standing in the way. Now he didn't have that before, right? He did not. He had smart people of course, but he didn't have that. That's like an impenetrable shield of high-IQ people who are going to make sure that the dumb doesn't get to Trump. And if it does, it's not going to stick. They're going to give him a Silkwood bath if he gets any dumb in there. So I've never felt so confident about a presidency. You know, fingers crossed that becomes Trump. He is assembling the most credible team.

And then we heard today that there's some talk of Jamie Dimon being considered for Treasury. Now I can't imagine that he would ever take that job because Jamie Dimon has like the best job ever if you're in that space. And working for the government and working for Trump is pretty much putting a target on your back. So I can't imagine you'd take the job. But I love the fact that it's not crazy. I mean Jamie Dimon did say, hey, you know, Trump got some things right. Which is not being a Trump supporter. That's not a Trump supporter. He's just saying, you know, the criticism is a little off base. Could he do it? The fact that we're even talking about it as a possibility when Jamie Dimon was being talked about as a potential replacement for Biden is kind of phenomenal. I mean if you think about what that would look like in terms of unity, it would be incredible.

Now I would say to Jamie Dimon, if I were advising you, what's good for you in your life, don't do it if you get asked. That's going to be a tough assignment. You know, you might want to keep your reputation intact. But if you've got the guts and if you're the patriot that I actually think you are, it would be a hell of a service to the country, assuming that the story is real and it's really being considered and it really gets offered. It would be a hell of a service. And I for one would have extreme gratitude for anybody who took that kind of a just a pure risk for the benefit of the country. There's nothing in it for Jamie Dimon. There's nothing in it. But if he did it, that would look like pure, pure service. So I don't expect it because that's a lot to ask for anybody, especially if they have a family and you know everything else. But wow, just the fact that it's even being considered is quite interesting.

All right. Fed is looking at cutting some rates. That's your good news, bad news. The Fed doesn't look at cutting rates unless the economy is starting to drag and unemployment isn't as good as it should be. But we're always going to put a political spin on everything, right? So if the Fed cuts the rates, it's going to look positive for the economy. The stock market presumably will go up. It's going to help Biden's argument. Hey, look what I've done. The economy loves me. And then of course the people who are smarter than that will say, but the stock market is a forward indicator which is really already priced in Trump. So it's already a Trump market. I'm just going to say it. The stock market is a Trump market from now on. Is that fair? Would you agree it's a Trump market? I think it's going to respond to what they expect Trump will do from this point on because he's the presumed winner.

All right. Elon Musk says he's moving two of his headquarters out of California. So he's moving the X people and he's moving the SpaceX headquarters out of California. And he says the reason is that California's new law that basically tells schools that they can transition your kid without your knowledge. Now that's my own description. That's not what anybody smart would say. What smart people would say, the schools are not required to tell parents if the child is identifying as a different gender, I guess. Now is anybody okay with that? I have real questions. Is there any parent anywhere, Democrat or Republican, is there any parent who thinks that's a good idea for their own children? You know, maybe they think it's a good idea for your kids or something. But I feel like there's no actual human being who has children who thinks that's a good idea. That sounds like something that childless people would say. Like what parent would ever give up their own rights over their own children? No matter what the right was, why would a parent ever give up a right that involves their own children? I don't understand how there's even one person who could be in favor of that. I've never heard the argument. What's even the argument? Because the argument is presumably something like the parents don't have the best interests of the kids in mind in some cases. I assume that's the argument, right? But what parent would be in favor of that? There's no parent who would be in favor. So did people without kids make decisions for people with kids? I don't know what went on there. I don't know how such an absurd thing could happen.

Now I do suspect that Elon Musk had a bit of a fake, meaning that he was already talking about moving X. That conversation was happening. And if he's going to move X and the SpaceX, gravity is already in Texas or someplace else, you know it just makes sense. He wanted to consolidate his businesses where he spends more time. So it probably just means less travel for him and fewer taxes, fewer problems with the state messing with you. But I do like the fact that he tied it to a political event and allowed his communication to be louder because it was tied to an economic event. So it makes it look clear that California is giving up a lot of money to have these ridiculous laws. That law is just batshit crazy. There's nothing to even argue about it. It's just batshit crazy. You can't take the parents out of raising a decision as basic as the kids. Oh anyway, I don't have to argue it because you're all on the same page. Well let me test. Is there even one person in the comments who thinks that's a good law? I don't even have to look, do I? There's not one person here. I don't know how that gets approved. Quite a mystery.

Well, last night at the Republican National Convention was enemy unity night, I guess. Nikki Haley was there endorsing Trump. And Vivek gave a great speech, brought down the house, endorsed Trump. DeSantis endorsed Trump. Now that is good messaging. Because remember the whole point of Trump is he's trying to unite. So if you're going to be a uniter, I can't think of anything better to start that moving than getting the people on your own team to unite. And apparently he has. So the unity among the Republicans is the best I've seen in many years. And that's on Trump. Now it's on the luck of surviving an assassination, but that's on Trump. So during a Trump time the Republican Party came together. The ones who are still anti-Trump are just not serious people at this point. They're not serious people.

There's a question whether Vivek Ramaswamy would accept if he were offered to be the replacement senator in Ohio. And Vivek says he's going to talk to Trump about how Vivek can be the most useful, whether it's that or something else. And I'd love to know what the alternative is. Wouldn't you love to have that option? Hey Vivek, you don't have to even run for election. Could we just make you a senator? And Vivek's options are so good that he can say, I don't know, let me mull that over with my other opportunities. Just try to hold that in your head. Yeah, here's somebody that you never even heard of two years ago or whatever. And he did such a good job running for president even in an ultimate losing effort. He did such a good job that he's literally having a conversation, I don't know, senator without spending any money, without even having to run for it. I don't know. I'll put that on my list of things I'll consider. Do you realize what kind of talent is coming into the administration? Just hold that in your brain for a second. The level of talent that's coming in that even that conversation is a conversation. Is Senate good enough for you? Would like, you know, maybe you should be head of Homeland Security. Is there a better job that would make more sense? Oh, senator is okay. I could settle for a senator. I just love that story.

Anyway, Andre Horowitz, that's a big VC outfit in the Valley, are endorsing Trump now. If you don't know the players and you just heard, oh there's a couple of money people in Silicon Valley who kind of decided to endorse Trump, no that's not what happened. If you're a little closer to the situation, you know I live around here so just by osmosis you end up knowing the players. And Horowitz aren't just two smart guys. They're two smart guys that smart guys look to to figure out how to be smart guys. That's big because they are people who shape opinion. They're not just people with opinions. If you didn't know that you would think this is a small story. But when these two guys go public on the same side and unambiguously endorsing Trump, after you've seen Bill Ackman go, you've seen now there's a pretty long list of VCs who have gone public, come out of the closet. And of course Elon Musk. And Jamie Dimon, he's not supporting Trump as far as we know, but even he said recently some of these criticisms about Trump are a little overblown. So you're seeing people come out of the closet.

Mike Cernovich said in these words today, you can now operate in legitimate society while supporting Trump. Hard to overstate the implications of this for the 2024 election and future. Yep, it is hard to overstate how important that is. It's really hard to overstate it. And of course it was the assassination attempt that gave everybody the fake because that was the ultimate permission. It's like, okay, now we're seeing the things have gone way too far. We can come out under the cover of the, you know, hey, can't be in favor of an assassination. So that's good.

But I would like to thank Cernovich for being one of the biggest fighters for legitimizing the ability to just have an opinion. And I would like to thank everybody who got cancelled, everybody who had been maligned, everybody who lost a job, everybody who went first. Because although Cernovich is correct in pointing out the bravery of the people who were coming out, he was first, right? Like he didn't wait. There are people who ran into the fight first. And you know it's very magnanimous of him to give credit to the people who are coming on board now. They did have big reputations and lots to protect and you understand that it's a, in the real world you have to take care of yourself a little bit. You can't just run into danger. But there are some people who saw the bigger picture faster. And the people who saw the bigger picture faster in many cases made some pretty big sacrifices. And Cernovich is the leading general in that. And I think that has to be called out because you have to look at the whole arc of his work and the level of influence he's had to make this all possible. He was the biggest voice that I saw advocating for JD Vance. I think it made a difference. I definitely think his voice made a difference there.

So there are people that in my mind feel like founders. Because I feel in a very real sense that something like the founding of the country is rehappening. You know, people said we're a dying republic and America, we had our good 200 years and now we're dying. You know what? They were right except they didn't have the timing right. We already died. The founders are reforming the country now. Democrats aren't going to want to hear this, but I don't think it's a coincidence that God saved Trump at the same time that people who look like they're the reincarnation of the founders have just arisen. You know when you've got a Vivek who reminds me of Jefferson, you've got an Elon Musk who reminds you of Ben Franklin. You've got basically you could go down the line and you could map the founders to the current bunch of people. You would map George Washington to Trump. When you saw Trump put his hand up, what was the first thing you thought from history? The first thing I thought was that iconic painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware. And you know Washington is standing up on the boat as if he would stand up on that little boat. But you know, and I'm sure it's not based on a literal picture, but do you feel that America actually did die? I don't think we're trying to recover. I think we died. I think that the Republic was dead. I think that we've been run by some people in the background now for decades and just imagined we had some kind of country.

I do think that the founders have been reformed. There is some kind of larger force that's making things happen that it's just hard to explain in any other filter. Now I remind you I'm not a believer myself, but the filter that fits the best is that God formed America in the first place, didn't like how it was going, let it die, but the economy kept cooking along. And then it was time to reform it. And I'm seeing a new America. I'm not just seeing make America great again. It just looks like it's being reformed almost from scratch, from first principles let's say. From first principles. If you look to Vivek, he's a first principles guy, says it all the time. If you look at Elon Musk, first principles kind of guy, says it all the time. What do all of the venture capitalists, the Andre Horowitz people, what do they all have in common? First principles kind of people. They're basically, wait, let's back it up to what the basic situation is and then reason it from there. Don't just get caught in the rhetoric and the narrative and stuff like that. Let's take it back.

We've never had this many capable people line up on the same side since the actual American Revolution. There's an insane amount of talent that just found each other. Does that feel like a coincidence to you? I mean there's something happening here that's just way bigger than all of us. And it could be just an emergent intelligence. It could be an emerging intelligence. I do believe that humans collectively form a meta intelligence that's bigger than the collection. And it doesn't happen often because it doesn't need to. If you don't have a problem that is existential, you don't need people to form a larger consciousness. We can just all do our own thing, which is what I think we've been doing for a few hundred years, largely doing our own thing. Oh you've got a World War II thrown in there and you better come together for that. But I think that the larger intelligence, which is the combination of all the smartest people who know how to think, not the people who are just the crazy people but the people who know how to think, are finding each other. They're finding the truth and they're going to put massive amount of money behind it and massive amount of reputational risk. And they've decided, you know how I always tell you about the difference between wanting and deciding. There was a lot of wanting of Trump to win. There was a lot of wanting. There wasn't enough deciding. Because deciding means you're going to do whatever it takes. Musk just put his whole life on the line literally. Let me say that again. Elon Musk put his life on the line. That's not an exaggeration because he knows, I mean he's had two attempts on his life just recently. He knows what kind of risk this is. He's not doing this blind. He put his life on the line. That's a decision. That's not, oh you know I'd rather have this candidate. No, that's a decision. He's putting forty-five million dollars a month into the PAC. That's not wanting. That's a decision.

All right. So I think a lot of people have just decided. And if you look at who the deciders are, they're not your average people. There's a lot of deciding going on right now.

All right. Let's see. Ken Dilanian for NBC News. I saw him reporting on this alleged Iranian assassination plot which has been bubbling for a while now. So this is not new news. It's a background news. So it's sort of like context. Context is that US officials have had intel about Iran trying to assassinate Trump for his assassination of Soleimani when he was in office. And allegedly that background threat had prompted the Secret Service to enhance Trump's protection. So what you saw on the day that he was shot was their enhanced protection against Iranian super killers. So their enhanced protection against highly trained Iranian assassins didn't stop the twenty-year-old who borrowed his dad's gun and got a ladder. So if that's the extra super beefed up security against the Iranian super assassins who one imagines would be quite well trained, I think they need a little more beefing up. That's not what I call beefing up.

But if you did not recognize the name I gave you, Ken Dilanian in NBC, I will tell you that allegedly, I have no personal knowledge of this, but I think this is the Glenn Greenwald filter on things, that it would be well known again this is not my own claim. The NBC and specifically Ken Dilanian would be considered the voice of the CIA basically. Now that's not my claim. That's the claim that smart people make. I wouldn't know. But isn't it kind of coincidental that something that would mock up the story would get into the story at just the right time? Now it does seem sort of related but not really. Because if the worry is that the shooter was in fact radicalized by Democrat talking points, then the last thing you want is to not have a counternarrative. It's like, well I don't know. We don't know his motives. It could have been, yeah it just could have been the Iranians got to him. So it just sort of introduces some doubt into something that probably shouldn't have any doubt at all. If an American takes a shot at Trump, is there any doubt that he was radicalized by the media or social media which is also radicalized by the proper media? Not really. It's not one of those questions where you have to question his motive. Now if you say, oh but was influenced by this as well, okay, but still it's because there is no scenario in which you take a shot at Trump just because you worked out the details on your own. That came from somewhere. Twenty-year-olds don't have their own opinions.

I had a conversation with some young people the other day who is not too far from that age of the twenty-year-old who said that all of their friends are starting to hate Biden because Biden is too pro-Israel. And I said to him, do your friends know that Trump is considered like the biggest friend of Israel ever? And they looked at me and said what? Oh yeah. So all your friends who have decided that they don't like Biden because of Israel, they don't know that Israel and Trump are the closest of any couple that have ever been. And they said, oh well actually to be fair nobody my age knows anything. That was the honest answer I got back. Nobody my age knows anything. So then I tossed down a few. I said, well were you aware of this? No. I said, were you aware of this? I've never heard of that before. Were you aware of this? Nope, never heard that. So that's what a twenty-year-old knows. What a twenty-year-old knows is just nothing. And nobody suggests that this was the best informed twenty-year-old. Nobody thinks that.

Now I see MKUltra all over the place. I don't believe that the CIA can hypnotize somebody to be a killer. So speaking as a hypnotist, I don't think that's the thing. You could find somebody who's already ready to be pushed over the edge. So you could maybe tip somebody over the edge. You can't take somebody who wasn't thinking about it and turn them into an assassin. No, hypnosis can do that. Now I mean the exception would be if you completely control them and they saw no other people for three years and you just brainwashed them every day in a secret room. You could do that. That actually would work. But you can't just sort of talk to somebody in the real world, send them some messages, turn them into an assassin. They would have to be right on the edge of tipping anyway and then maybe you could do it. But it'd be hard. I don't think the CIA just hypnotized the guy to go kill the president. My skill set says that's not really a thing. Not really.

But having this Iranian thing in here makes everything a little more uncertain. And why is it that we're hearing so little about the, let me tell you what I would expect to see. Here's the dog not barking. Are you ready? Dog not barking. The twenty-year-old had classmates. All right, now he's out of high school of course, but he had people who knew him in high school. Now apparently he was bullied and he wasn't popular. But has anybody talked to his classmates and said, they say he had no social media. Is that true? His classmates would know if he had social media. Where's that? Now you don't necessarily want to put them on camera because they'd be, well they'd be twenty-two so that'd be fine. So if you had some twenty-year-old people who went to school with him and you say, can you tell me that this is the only twenty-year-old, then he would have been eighteen, who has no social media? Just ask the people who know him. They know for sure. For sure they know if he had social media. They know.

Now I can understand why the people doing the investigation maybe don't want to tell you anything yet because it's an ongoing investigation. But the news, the news knows where he went to school. The news knows his family. The news could easily find his friends. And why isn't the news telling us if he had social media? Because they could. You think they couldn't figure that out? You think there's no way an investigative journalist could find somebody who went to school with you? Just have to find one person you went to school with. Did this guy have social media? Of course he did. Or oddly he did not. Right? So that it's kind of missing. It's kind of conspicuously missing.

Anyway, there's a big headline news today. This is unusual. I mean it's the reason it made news. I've told you before that if a dog bites a man, that's the old saying, that's not news because that could happen. But if a man bit a dog, well that could be news. You know, that's the old saying. So here's one of those. It's, I mean I know you didn't expect this so that's why it's news. Representative Adam Schiff told the truth at a private meeting and made headline news anyway. Next story. Oh you're probably wondering what he said. Well that's not the fun part. What he said was just the truth that you already knew. The story is that Adam Schiff told the truth. That's literally the story. I'm not making that up. The story is that he told the truth. The truth was that he thinks that the Democrats will lose everything if Biden stays in the job. Now don't you believe that that is the truth? It's the truth that it's probably true because you're talking probabilistically. It's probably true. And I probably believe he believes it. So there was nothing new in the idea that the Democrats are panicked about losing everything. So there was no news quality in the fact that there was this one person who believes what everybody else believes. Would you agree? It's not news that there's somebody who believes what everybody else believes. What's news is he told the truth. Just think about that. That's exactly what made it a headline. He told the truth. That is how amazing that is. And he did it on closed doors. So apparently Biden is very sharp behind closed doors. And behind closed doors sometimes Adam Schiff tells the truth. So here's my advice. You should stay away from sloped roofs and closed doors. Y'all.

All right. I posted a message today asking who has the best debunk on the January 6 insurrection hoax because it appears that the media has retreated to that hoax. So that's their strongest remaining hoax because the fine people hoax got debunked. You know Trump is rising in every other way. He's unifying people. So they're sort of running out of hoaxes and their best play is now the January 6 one. So I posted and it's my pinned post if you want to grab it by the way you should if you think you're going to get in this conversation. You should literally screen grab or copy my post. It's the pinned one this morning. And I'll read it to you but I think this is the strongest argument that January 6 was not an insurrection.

All right. It goes like this. Several points. Number one, if somebody says it was an insurrection, here would be your response. Explain to me how trespassing in one building leads to conquering the United States. So that's the kill shot. But then they're going to say if they know enough, you know first of all they probably give up just on that point alone. But if they know a little bit more they'd say, whoa, whoa, whoa, Scott, hold on. It wasn't just about the protesting. No there was also this fake electoral situation. So I mean that was the real coup attempt. To which I say, explain how the alternate or you call them fake electors could have led to the conquering of the United States. Can you conquer a country with paperwork? Did you feel that? Can you conquer a country with paperwork? Because the normal way that would have gone would have been, oh I challenge this to the Supreme Court and then the Supreme Court looks at it and goes, ah get rid of these fake electors. And then that would be it. Just like everything else. It would be absolutely routine for the courts to reject this and then everybody goes their own way just like everything else. But what was the way in which it could have worked? Can you imagine the situation? It's like Pence is ready to certify the election and then somebody says, wait we've got paperwork. And then Pence does whatever he does. But later do you imagine that the Democrats would get together later and they'd say, wow we were pretty sure we won this thing fair and square but I didn't see that they would have paperwork. They have paperwork people. They have paperwork. And then they say we better just give them the country. And then one of the Democrats would say, well couldn't we just do some fake paperwork and take it back? And the Democrats would be like, what's your name? You're a genius. And he'd say Bob. My name is Bob. I don't know if that would be his name but let's say this. I just kind of came up with it. Bob, that's just brilliant. They try to take over the country with paperwork but does anybody have paper? Anybody? You have paper? Bring some paper over here and bring a pen quick. We're going to take this country back. We resolve that the country comes back to us. And by the way does anybody want to be a senator as long as I'm doing some paperwork? Well we'll call you an alternate senator but that's probably good enough to take over the country. Alternate senator. Who wants to be the alternate president? Oh we have one of those. Alternate cabinet members? Anybody? Finally we have paperwork. We will take over this country with our paperwork. Seriously people, how was anybody going to take over the country with trespassing in one building and some paperwork?

But then, but then, hold on Scott, hold on Scott. It's like you don't even watch the news. I think I got rid of my Dale impression. Dale will be making a comeback if you don't know. Dale is the Democrat who looks a lot like me except he has a goatee and he says crazy things and he looks like this. Well Scott if it's not an insurrection how do you explain all the cops that were killed? There were no cops killed. I've got horses. Well maybe you should Google them. Never mind I think Google probably erased it. But how do you explain the lectern got moved? What's your point? The lectern, the lectern it got moved. And just complete that point about the lectern and therefore the insurrection almost succeeded because the lectern got moved. There was also graffiti. There was graffiti so they were trying to conquer the country with paperwork but also graffiti. You didn't see it. It was bad. It was bad graffiti. It was weaponized graffiti. Well so I just imagine it goes like that.

All right. If you don't like those two, so those are the two points. You can't conquer a country by trespassing and you can't conquer a country with paperwork. If that would work I think somebody would have tried it already. I would have tried it myself frankly. I think I would have made a run at conquering the country if I could do it with fake paperwork.

All right. And then here's my favorite one though. So one of the things we know from the communications of the day is that Don Jr. was trying to stop the protests and you know get the president to say hey stand down and everything. So we know very clearly that Don Jr. was not in on any plot to take over the country. And so I ask you this. Do you believe that Trump planned to take over the country and word never got to Don Jr.? Because you think at the very least somebody would have said, hey Don Jr. you better protect all of your children because if your father takes over the country they're in a lot of trouble and so is your old family and so are you. So you might want to beef up your security because you know we're going to take over the country. I feel like that would have been mentioned. It would have been mentioned to Don Jr. Like how dumb do you have to be to think that Don Jr. wouldn't be in on the plot? I mean if the plot were real of course he would. Of course he would.

Anyway then here's my other point. Have you ever met a Republican who would be okay with Trump or anyone else becoming a dictator? That's the opposite of being a Republican. It's right in the name. Well it's not right in the name but the whole point of being a Republican is you like the Constitution. There's no such thing as a Republican who also kind of wants a dictator as long as the dictator is a good one and on their side. That's not a thing. There are zero Republicans who would have been okay with some kind of a coup. Zero. I've never even heard it privately. I've never heard anybody whisper about it. I've never heard anybody say, you know it wasn't a coup but honestly if it had been I would have been all in. No, there's no Republican. Find me one Republican who would have ever had that point of view. It's not a thing.

Now let's compare the insurrection narrative to what I call the more rational explanation. Here's the rational explanation that you never see on the fake news. So if it wasn't an insurrection Scott what was it? If it wasn't an insurrection what was it? What was it Scott? What was it? Well maybe it was exactly what they said it was. Maybe if you simply asked all the people you believed were involved, what is it you were trying to accomplish? Maybe do that. Maybe just ask them, hey what was in your mind? What were you trying to do? Don't you think that matters? There were thousands of people there. Why not just ask them? Why were you there? What were you trying to accomplish? I've asked them. So on behalf of the news that didn't do its job let me tell you what they would say. They would say we thought the election looked sketchy and we wanted a little timeout to check to see if this problem was what we thought it was which was the election was stolen. So we were trying to protect the election. We were trying to protect the outcome and we're trying to protect the country, protect the Republic and make sure that all of us, all Americans got the result that they thought they voted for.

But what about those fake electors Scott? What about the fake electors? Well why don't we ask them what they intended to do? What they intended to do if you ask them is to preserve their legal challenge. Now did they do it right? A lot of people would say no. But does anybody doubt the intent? Does anybody have any question about the intention? No. The intention was to preserve their legal right. Now they thought that could lead to Trump staying in office but that would require of course that somebody looked into the election and found some problem with it which never happened.

All right. So if you don't like debunking that let's talk about debunking climate change which looks like it's going to fall any moment. Steve Milloy who's been debunking climate stuff forever, here's what he says. Now I'm going to say I don't know if his facts are the same as the official facts so you have to watch out if everybody's using the same sources of data and I don't know the answer to that. But here's what he says. That for the last nine years the temperature has on average gone down. And you therefore you would have to believe that over that time four hundred and fifty billion tons of CO2 got into the air between 2015 and 2023 and it didn't do what it was predicted to do. And then on top of that, so that's the first claim. So the first claim is that the temperatures didn't go up but the CO2 went up massively. And if you're only talking about one year or two years you'd say okay we didn't claim every single year was going to be a straight line up just the average would. But it would be pretty hard to argue that over an eight or nine year period that you didn't see any impact of climate change. None. At the period when it was the most CO2 not only in the air but the most added to the air. And in that entire time, in that entire time that I was just looking at a reframe that somebody had is pretty good. So in that entire time nothing went up.

Now remember the claim is that the temperatures do not show warming over that period. I'm pretty sure the climate change people would say it did. So they might be looking at different data. I don't, there's I have some questions there. But then there's also a Tonga volcano that erupted in 2022 which some say, this is in Zero Hedge, that accounted for basically all of the extra warmth. So you didn't debunk anything. Brian Snick died. Oh there's some, is there somebody here who doesn't know that Brian Snick, you know that's a fake story right? There's somebody yelling in all caps you didn't debunk anything Brian Snick died. No you unfortunately you got some fake news there. So he just wants to say it over and over again. Yeah no you got fake news. Done that. Check your news. You'll find out you've been hoaxed.

Meanwhile John Deere has released a statement saying they're backing off on their DEI policies and they're going to commit to just helping their customers now. So I think they're going to get rid of some of their DEI stuff and stop focusing on pronouns and stuff like that. And that would be a big win for Robby Starbuck who was the person who originally noticed and started advocating that they changed their ways and got enough public attention on it that they actually backed off. Now some say maybe they'll just change the names of things and keep going but honestly they look pretty serious about it, right? They look pretty serious.

All right. There's a study that said two-thirds of children's calories come from ultra-processed foods. So no surprise that kids are not healthy. Two-thirds of their calories come from processed foods.

Now you probably saw the leaked audio and video of RFK Jr. talking to Trump and they were talking quite in a friendly way. And Trump seemed to be indicating, oh somebody saying if the riot didn't happen the policeman wouldn't have died. Okay well that's just a whole different claim. Yeah so that's a stupid claim. So stop being stupid. I have a comment here is just stupid so stop being stupid. Okay yeah just stop being stupid. I there's nothing else to say about that. Just don't be stupid anymore in public. Be stupid in private. That'd be better.

Anyway if RFK Jr. did have any interest in working with Trump I would love to see him working on this big issue which is our food supply and our vaccine process need to be relooked at. And it sounded like Trump was sort of hinting in that direction that maybe he would have a role. And of course he's running against Trump so he's not going to say yes to anything like that. But I think Trump made it clear that he could work with RFK Jr. if it was the right fit. Which would be unity. That would be unity.

And here's a study you probably didn't know about this but new study says that orgasms can help women with stress. Well who knew that? But it's more than that. Other studies have also shown that orgasms can help you with pain relief. They can help you with reduced migraines. They can boost your immunity. It can unblock your nose. It's good for your heart health and it also boosts your feel-good hormones like your oxytocin and your dopamine and stuff like that.

Now I don't know if you've ever heard me say this before but I could have saved them a lot of money. Yeah you didn't really need to check that. Scott we're thinking of doing this study to find out if orgasms make people feel better. I'm going to say yes. Oh thank you. Wow you just saved us two hundred thousand dollars. Ah you're welcome. Is there anything else I can do for you? Well we're also wondering if it reduced your stress especially for women. Yes. Oh wow you just saved us another two hundred thousand dollars. We I swear we were going to study that but you knew the answer all along. I did. I did. I knew that one. How about it'll boost your immunity? Yes it will.

All right. Here's my serious answer. I swear I'm not making this up. Probably forty years ago I discovered that no matter how badly I felt or what kind of sickness or illness or pain I had I could kind of make it all go away. And I said to myself, wait a minute this can't be a coincidence that when you get in that certain mode that all your problems go away. Like I don't have a mental problem but I also didn't have physical problems. Like it would make the flu go away. I mean not go away but it wouldn't hurt at least while you were in that mode. And here was my hypothesis I developed literally forty years ago that your mating instinct is so strong that it will erase your other problems. So in other words your body is made to reproduce. So you put it in a mating instinct mode even if you're all by yourself. If you're in your mating instinct mode and your body is registering mating then it goes to its highest health situation. In other words it puts you in the best situation to complete the task. Because if you wanted to mate but you had a stomach ache well maybe you'd not do it. If you wanted to mate but you had a migraine well you probably wouldn't be in the mood. If you wanted to mate but you felt some pain you probably wouldn't do it. So I had noticed that being in that orgasmic mindset makes all your pain go away. And I had always hypothesized that there must be an obvious and logical evolutionary reason which is you're better at reproducing if your body is all working right. And so that the moment you have an opportunity to be in a mating moment even if you're by yourself that your body just says all right we're going to fix everything. Your immune system is boosted. Your pain goes away. Your migraine's gone. You got a little more energy. How about a little oxytocin? Would you like some dopamine? Because you need the dopamine to act. You know that's the thing that actually makes you do a thing. So no it was not difficult to understand that this was going to be good for people.

Now that ladies and gentlemen concludes my prepared remarks. And thanks for joining. If you're on the X or Rumble or YouTube platforms make sure you pick up my newest book God's Debris The Complete Works. It's updated and it combines The Religion War, God's Debris and a new short story and it's available on Amazon. And people are loving it. They're loving it. And by the way I said this before but if you want to see another view of why that bullet didn't get Trump and only his ear this book will be another way to look at that. And you won't see it until you're done with it but once it all comes together in your head you can say, oh man I wonder if that's what's happening. So that's the teaser. You will enjoy the book. I guarantee it.

Now bye to everybody except the locals people. I'm going to talk to you right now. Thanks everybody else. See you tomorrow.

uh oh well we got a show today good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called coffee with Scott Adams there's never been a better time in your life and if you'd like to enjoy this experience at levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny shiny human brains all you need is a CO marker a glass of tanker chaler Stein a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite look and I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure the dope am me of the day thing makes everything better it's called the simultaneous zp it happens now go Ah that's some good sipping well Peter Navaro is getting freed today is he already freed has anybody heard from him yet I always wonder about the day that you're supposed to be freed from prison did did they make it happen right away because I always wonder do you wake up in the morning and say oh today's today's the day I go free and then you you call the guard over and say today's the day today's the day I go free then the guard looks at you and says that's after the shift that's at 5:00 you're like wait a minute today's the day I go free I don't go like when I wake up no sort of an end of day thing you got you got to serve some more jail today how's that work somebody says he's already out it seems like they would do a first thing in the morning doesn't it all right well we'll celebrate that in a bit no we're going to celebrate now with a sip of coffee who's with me Peter Navaro sip of coffee Peter if you're watching glad you're out it's about time stronger probably go all right everything seems to be going Trump's way directly and indirectly seems like uh seems like God has chosen him I don't know if that true but it looks like it do you know do you know how much how many coincidences or events it takes before somebody who doesn't even I'm not even a believer but but even I think it looks like God is chosen Trump it's getting harder and harder to deny at this point all right he's he's out Peter Naro is out anyway gold bar Bob New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez he's found guilty of taking money from uh some Egyptian people as as GRE Greg Greg geld said last night on G geld he said he sounded like a pyramid scheme cuz he took money from Egyptians oh anyway it's pretty funny uh but also from a qari or their government so here's the question isn't it lucky that there was just that one criminal in Congress thank goodness we got that one guy who's trading favors for money we we finally got that one guy it makes me think he must have like pissed off the intelligence service or something he must have made somebody mad who normally you know would just let things go it's like we can make a can make a some kind of an example on a gold bar Bob well there's an update on Biden's brain uh apparently before Trump was uh nearly assassinated he had a zoom call with a bunch of moderate Democrats and uh the call went like this uh President Biden what do you plan to do to resurrect your campaign and get it going again well anyway so something like that so reportedly it was bad it was bad really bad but here's what I don't understand how was it that he looked completely coherent in the evening when he talked about the assassination attempt how did they drug him up or is it just totally random cuz he looked presidential but he couldn't do a zoom call earlier that day know this is all very mysterious well so Biden is talking about uh Supreme Court limits uh well actually term limits and I saw in their comments that some people are saying that he can't do it he doesn't have the authority and the interesting thing would be if he tried to Institute term limits and there was a legal objection and it got appealed am I wrong that the Supreme Court gets to decide on its own whether it can have term limits because it will decide whether the ruling was constitutional or not do do we have the Absurd situation where the Supreme Court will vote on whether they get fired now that'll be fun I I'm assuming there'll be all kinds of legal analyses that are Arcane and weird and don't seem obvious but uh unconfirmed Miracle drugs what are we talking about somebody's talking about uncon oh the miracle drugs to get uh get Biden to talk okay I'm on all right rasmuson has a uh poll on what people think of the shooters motives 40% of likely voters think it's uh he's just you know mentally ill but 41% believe it was mainly caused by uh the the Democrats basically the the rhetoric against Trump so 41% of the country believes that the way Biden and the Democrats were talking caused an assassination attempt and I've got a feeling that some of those 40% who just think it's mental illness did they think do they think Trump was chosen randomly if your opinion was that the reason for the shooting was mental illness do you think he randomly chose the president or randomly from mental illness now mental illness or not he he picked a specific spefic person and the hardest one to get so it had to be a little bit about something about Trump and how would a 20-year-old know anything about Trump their opinions are assigned by the media these are assigned opinions so I would say that the 40% who say he mentally ill is really the same as the 41% who said it's caused by Trump's rhetoric to me this looks like 81% of people think it's the rhetoric caused it now if he was also mentally ill you know that's a contributing factor but certainly the rhetoric no matter what no matter how sane he was he didn't randomly pick the guy that they've been calling Hitler for years so then there's a quote from JD Vance uh that says the uh Central premise of the Biden campaign is that Trump was an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs and the rhetoric led directly to the attempt of assassination apparently 61% of likely voters agreed with that quote so that would suggest that at least some of the people who thought mental illness was part of it also think the rhetoric was part of it too so that makes sense split the difference all right so Dan Bonino Don Bonino who I would consider one of the best voices on the whole topic of how the shooter did what he did in the Secret Service Etc Bonino is the one to listen to he's got the best Insight on that I would think but he said he had an unimpeachable source that there was a police officer whose job it was to secure that area apparently um did not show up for work and there's no word yet why is there an update on that I didn't see an update this morning but the unimpeachable source says there should have been somebody on the roof and the roof guy didn't show up but we don't know why the roof guy didn't show up now that still makes the possibility that there was some you know some Shenanigans because we don't know why the roof guy didn't show up however I remind you that so far every single part of the story is consistent with the Sil filter that people are way less capable than you imagine they are and that people can make way more mistakes than you think possible and Dei has probably infected the competence of the entire operation plus they had temps you it wasn't I call them temps they weren't the regular crew so you had lots of reasons for incompetence but I will admit that every part of the story is also compatible with a you know a wild plot I don't know how you can rule it out exactly how do you rule out well there was a secret plot that we can't find you know but let me show you this if I can make this work here's a Peter Duke went through the effort of putting together aerial map that shows the location of stuff now you can't see it too clearly on my screen if you want to see the good one with the high resolution go to my feed on X it'll be there this morning and anyway it shows the locations of the shooter the people who got shot and uh some locations that the people who were conspiracy theorists who might had not be right but the conspiracy theorists are imagining a second shooter and they think they see evidence of it Etc um I'm going to say that confirmation um confirmation bias would get you all the way there meaning that even though you're pretty sure that you've seen uh evidence that the shock could not have come from one place and there must have been multiple Shooters and you heard too many and something bounced off a railing and somebody got shot who was in the wrong place it couldn't have happened must have been somebody in the you know so anyway all that stuff is swirling around in my opinion the the hypothesis that it was part of a bigger plot and somebody else was involved is still live that's that's a live hypothesis the competing one that it was just massive incompetence like we see everywhere else all the time is also Fully Alive so you've got two theories that are they're living completely I mean both of them you can't put a glove on them you know I'd love to say that the dilber filter that it's just incompetence is the one that's better because the other one has some flaws but the other one doesn't really have any flaws it looks completely consistent with some kind of a larger plot doesn't mean it is but it seems completely consistent with that now one of the uh things we found out is that the shooter had a remote control and had a bomb or actually two bombs in his car in the parking lot and people are saying what's that for they also say how did he know how to make a bomb with a remote control is that something you could look up on the internet and and if he was looking up that kind of stuff on the internet and he didn't have any social media presence none of this makes sense does it and if you could make an i IED that you could uh detonate from a distance wouldn't he use that and why did he have it in the first place if he's going to shoot why does he need the IEDs somebody said it would be to create a diversion so you shoot the president you blow up a car everybody looks at the car you run away maybe I've got a feeling it was more that he wanted to if he got into the car I think he was thinking to himself that if he escaped long enough to get into the car and if they caught him in the car it would be better to blow up the car with himself in it so it might have been a future suicide attempt in case he got halfway escaped and they pulled over the car and then he could blow up the car and something like that so we don't know but I have real questions about a guy who could put together a remote control bomb I don't know how I have no idea how hard that is I mean obviously it happens in the Middle East all the time but I don't know see seems like that's a little bit suggestive of some help now do you believe that he has no social media or do you believe they're hiding it from you because here's the uh the professional liar uh tell I've told you that there's there's regular Liars just politicians right all the politicians are just sort of normal Liars but then there's a special Elite group of liars that the Democrats bring out when they got the big lie the really big ones the ones that nobody else is even willing to talk about because it's just ridiculous so swell is already out uh and swalwell is one of the the group of uh designated Liars that they sent out when they got a Whopper to tell and he's telling that it's that the shooter was a registered Republican and that uh he had uh Trump signs at his house do you know what swall left out he doesn't have a house it's his parents' house he lived with his parents but the person who lives with the parents doesn't get to decide what signs are on the front lawn so there is evidence that the parents are a republican there is evidence that the shooter is registered as Republican now if the if the shooter registered as Republican does that mean anything maybe yes maybe no I'm a registered Democrat and you're listening to me so you can't trust what people register as I I can I can confirm that so we don't know if that means anything we saw pictures of him wearing an American flag and a shirt not too long ago which suggests he had some patriotic leanings which suggests a little more Republican leaning than not he obviously was comfortable with a gun and guns in the house which again is suggesting Republican but the fact that swell is the one who has to come out and tell you he was a republican strongly suggests that they know that's not the case he he's an indicator of the opposite so if you see swell shiff or Rasin or Brennan or Clapper they're all opposite guys whatever they tell you it's the opposite because they only bring them out they only bring them out when they've got a Whopper to tell it's it's pretty consistent all right now by the way uh if if you wonder why I sound like I'm healthy today and last night I sounded like I was going to die if you heard me on the man cave live stream uh I had some kind of allergic reaction so I thought I was dying of Co last night but it was some kind of massive allergic reaction all better now um so it wasn't sickness it was something else um I do blame my sloped roof um I was feeling fine and then somebody said but Scott you have a sloped roof next thing I know I was near death so slope roofs roofs very very dangerous stay away from them well Jake Tapper and the CNN crew uh got lered as they say Laura lomer did the uh what do you call it the uh the sneak attack where they're walking from one place to the other and you try to yell at them interview questions that they're not going to ask so I guess there were three different entities that all are after CNN for being fake news there's no real story to that except that CNN became the news have you notice that the news is the news right because even though we're talking about an assassination attempt that's the the top news what was the main cause of the assassination attempt well according to the rasmuson poll there's a pretty big chunk of Americans who say the news is the problem the news because would you even know that the Democrats were saying bad things about Trump well no it's the news it's not that the Democrats said it I think if I think if the only thing that happened was Democrats said bad things you'd say ah politics but if you turn the thing you think is your news and it's MSNBC and you see people who you think know more than you because they're the news and they're telling you they Hitler is going to get reelected maybe you believe it so I would say the news is the news I think the news is the cause of the assassination attempt I think the news is the reason you believe the fine people hoax because they won't debunk it I think the news is the reason you believe the January 6 hoax other people do not you uh we'll talk about that um so really the news is the news and I think Jake Tapper is the news he's not just the person who reported he's the news because why has he been saying the things he's been saying by the way I don't think he's you know the worst of the worst or anything he's just in that in the conversation so yeah once the news becomes the news you need to correct yeah you're going to have to find something all right um I don't know if you saw the story Caris swisher and Scott Galloway who some people think is my clone but he's not he's not my clone I disavow him because he got uh he was on a podcast making some assassination jokes uh I'm not going to repeat it but he made a assassination joke and and what some people think was too soon now I feel that it wasn't so much a too soon story you know I'm not the one who's going to cancel somebody for a joke even even one I don't like right you know I have to be consistent I'm not the one who's going to cancel somebody for a joke even a poor taste joke I tell I tell jokes and poor taste nearly every day often in public so it's more revealing about what they actually think and I do think that there are quite a few people who want people like me to be literally dead like actually literally dead now why is that is it because they accurately know things I've said is it because they accurately know things Trump has said and done no it's the news the news is the story again if you think this is a story about Caris Wisher and Scott Galloway having some opinions you don't like that were stated in a way that became public that's not exactly the story the story is they're victims too meaning that they are just as brainwashed as most of the most of the world actually so the brainwashing is the story and it's the news the news is brainwashing people to say things that when you look at them you say my God but moreover it also tells you something about their bubble how did you not know that that was would be taken really really badly because they act like you know people are going to love it I think that's the problem that Jack Black Tenacious D concert that got cancelled because one of the bandmates said something Pro assassination I think that you say that in front of a crowd of people because you're so in your bubble that it doesn't occur to you that half of them might be deeply deeply offended by that and they were probably I don't know if it was half but a lot anyway Biden apparently uh his Department of energy has an AI road map now you might say what does the department of energy have to do with AI well AI will suck up massive amounts of energy so much there wouldn't be enough left for human beings literally um so we've got a really big problem and it might not be solved by building more power plants because it takes a long time to build a nuke facility for example but one of the things they want to do is figure out how to make AI super computers more energy efficient which totally seems like that's worth doing so in our highly contentious World I'd like to say that looks like good work I have no problem with that I I think uh having my government um do some kind of a nationalist initiative to try to make the AI super computer is more energy efficient so it doesn't suck up all our energy and we all die in the fields that just seems like a solid good idea so sometimes we can say that the Biden Administration did something right I hope this is it I don't know all the details but I hope well meanwhile some uh what what are being called uh Trump allies you have to watch out for this story that's your first signal that there's something up a trump Ally what's that tell you I don't I haven't even told you the story yet but but if it start if it starts with Trump allies it's going to be something that somebody's going to try to smear Trump with that did not come from Trump you all know that right any story that starts with Trump allies because that's how the project 2025 thing started and then Trump has to explain I don't basically don't know what's in there what I heard I don't like right but then people say oh but they're your allies and then I heard uh van Jones saying that the Republican Party hasn't done enough to get rid of the um the white supremacist the racists in the party now how dumb do you have to be as a consumer of news to think that's a good point that the Republicans haven't done enough to get rid of the bad people in the party you know that Republicans don't have any control over that right they they can't excommunicate people they can people can register any way they want and then they can say anything they want and then they can vote free speech is still possible even if you hate it which is really the entire point of free speech is that it allows the stuff you don't like and what are the Democrats doing to get rid of their bad people I mean so you you even have van Jones has retreated to a really a stupid point you know let let me be blunt and I know he's too smart to think it's a good point so if a smart person has to use a stupid point that somehow Republicans could excommunicate the people they don't like in the party um if all he's got left is a stupid point and you know he knows it's stupid because he's smart right if he were stupid I'd say hm does he not know that's a bad point no he's very smart he knows it's a bad point it's all he's got you know they're basically an an of ammunition so you got to you got to go to the stupid stuff really and we'll talk about January 6 in a bit all right so anyway the Trump allies have crafted an AI executive order that they'd like Trump to sign on to and uh it's been viewed exclusively by the Washington post do you see the second tell uh do you think the Trump allies are really ones that Trump has endorsed to do this work for him no and do you think if it were Trump allies and Trump liked it and the Allies were all on the same page do you think that they would it would be released only to The Washington Post or maybe leaked we don't know if it was released or leaked no The Washington Post is not a credible entity the Trump allies are not a credible description of anybody and they have some kind of Manhattan project idea for a military Ai and slashing burdensome regulations I would say I would not believe any part of that story it could be some elements are true but it's coming from such a non-credible place you should just discount it entirely if later some credible entity that's not the Washington Post uh says it's true well then you know maybe upgrade the like the likelihood there's a story here uh then you got to see who these Trump allies are because you know how much have they actually talk to Trump about any of this and would JD Vance think it's a good idea would V think it's a good idea by the way how much do you love the fact that nothing stupid can get to Trump anymore think about it the Trump now has a smart filter that he surrounded himself with that's largely impenetrable there is no way that something just stupid is going to get all the way to Trump and turn into a policy because you got V standing in the way you got JD van standing in the way you got Elon Musk standing in the way you've got most of silicon Valley's smartest Venture capitalists we'll talk about in a moment standing in the way now he didn't have that before right he did not he had you know smart people of course but he didn't have that that that's like an impenetrable shield of high IQ people who are going to make sure that the dumb doesn't get to Trump and if it does it's not going to stick they're they're gonna they're going to give him a silkwood bath if he gets any dumb in there so I've never felt so confident about a presidency you know if you know fingers crossed that becomes Trump he he is assembling the most credible team and then we heard today that there's some talk of Jamie Diamond being considered for treasury now I can't imagine that he would ever take that job because Jamie dond has like the best job ever if you're in that space uh and working for the government and working for Trump is pretty much putting a Target on your back so I can't imagine you'd take the job but but I love the fact that it's not crazy I I mean Jamie Diamond did say hey hey you know Trump got some things right which is not being a trump supporter that's not a trump supporter he's just saying you know the criticism is a little off base could he do it the fact that we're even talking about it as a possibility when jamy Diamond was being talked about as a potential replacement for Biden is kind of phenomen Al I mean if you think about what that would look like in terms of unity it would be incredible now and I would say to Jamie Diamond if I were advising you what's good for you in your life don't do it if you get asked it's that's going to be a tough assignment you know you might want to you know keep your reputation intact but if you've got the guts and if you're the Patriot that I actually think you are it would be a hell of a service to the country assuming that it's the story is real and it's really being considered and it really gets offered um it would be a hell of a service and I I for one would have extreme gratitude for anybody who took that kind of a just a pure risk for the benefit of the country there's nothing in it for Jamie Diamond there's nothing in it but if he did it that would look like pure Pure service so I don't expect it because that's a lot to ask for anybody especially if they have a family and you know everything else but wow just the fact that it's even being considered is is quite quite interesting all right fed is looking at cutting some rates that's you know your good news bad news the FED doesn't look at cutting rates unless the economy is starting to drag and and unemployment isn't as good as it is or good as as it should be but we're always going to put a political uh spin on everything right so if the FED cuts the rates it's going to look positive for the economy the stock market presumably will go up it's going to it's going to help Biden's argument hey look what I've done the economy loves me and then of course the people who are smarter than that will say h but the stock market is a forward indicator which is really already priced in Trump so it's already a trump Market I'm just going to say it the stock market is a trump Market from now on is that fair would you agree it's a trump Market I think it's going to respond to what they expect Trump will do from this point on because he's the presumed winner all right um Elon Musk says he's moving uh two of his headquarters out of California so he's moving the ex people and he's moving the SpaceX headquarters H and of California and he says the reason is that California's new law that uh basically uh tells schools that they can transition your kid without your knowledge now that's my own description that's not that's not what what anybody smart would say uh what smart people would say it the the schools are not required to tell parents if the child is identifying as a different uh gender I guess now is anybody okay with that I I have real questions is there any parent anywhere democrat or republican any is there any parent who thinks that's a good idea for their own children you know maybe they think it's a good idea for your kids or something but I I feel like I feel like there's no actual human being who has children who thinks that's a good idea that sounds like something that childless people would say like what what parent would ever give up their own rights over their own children I you no matter what the right was why would a parent ever give up a right that involves their own children the I don't understand how there's even one person who could be in favor of that I've never heard of the argument what what's even the argument because the argument is you know presumably something like um the parents don't have the best interests of the kids in mind in some cases I assume that's the argument right but what parent would be in in favor of that there's no parent who would be in favor so did people without kids make decisions for people with kids I don't know what went on there I I don't know how such a absurd thing could happen now I do suspect that Elon Musk had a bit of a fake because meaning that he was already talking about moving X that conversation was happening and if he's going to move X and the Space X uh C gravity is already in Texas or someplace else you know it just makes sense he wanted to consolidate his businesses where he spends more time so it probably just means less travel for him and less fewer taxes you know fewer problems with the state messing with you but I do like the fact that he tied it to a political event and uh allowed his communication to be louder because it was tied to an economic event so so it makes it look clear that California is giving up a lot of money to have these ridiculous laws that that law is just batshit crazy there there's nothing to even argue about it it's just batshit crazy you can't take the parents out of raising you know a decision as basic as the kids oh anyway I I don't have to argue it because you're all in the same page well let me test is there even one person in the comments who thinks that's a good law I don't even have to look do I there's not one person here I don't know how that gets approved quite quite a mystery well last night at the Republican National Convention uh was enemies unit night I guess Nikki Haley was there endorsing Trump and V gave a great speech brought down the house Endor Trump De.

Santis um dorson Trump now that is a good so that's great messaging because remember the whole point of trump is he's trying to unite so if if you're going to be a uniter I can't think of anything better to you know start that moving than getting the people on your own team to unite and apparently he has so the the unity among the Republicans is the best I've seen in many years and that's on Trump now it's on lock the luck of surviving an assassination but that's on Trump so during a trump time the Republican Party came together the ones who are still anti-trump are just you know not serious people at this point they're not serious people there's a question whether v ramaswami um would accept if he were offered um to be the replacement senator in Ohio and V says he's going to talk to Trump about how V can be the most useful whether it's that or something else and I'd love to know what the alternative is wouldn't you love to have that option hey VI um you don't have to even run for election um could we just make you a senator and V's options are so good that he can say I don't know let me mle that over with my other opportunities just try to hold that in your head yeah here's somebody that you never even heard of you know two years ago or whatever and he did such a good job running for president even in a you know ultimate losing effort he did such a good job that he's literally having a conversation I don't know Senator Senator without spending any money without even having to run for it I don't know I I'll put that on my list of things I'll consider do you realize what kind of talent is coming into the administration I'm just just hold that in your brain for a second the level of talent that's coming in that even that conversation is a conversation is is Senate good enough for you would like you know maybe you should be head of Homeland Security you know is there is there a better job that would make more sense oh Senator is okay I could settle for a senator I just love that story anyway Andre Horwitz uh that's a big VC outfit in the valley are endorsing Trump now if you don't know the players and you just heard oh there's a couple of uh money people in Silicon Valley who kind of decided to endorse Trump no that's not what happened if you're a little closer to the situation you know I live around here so you know just by osmosis you you end you end up knowing the players and J and Horowitz aren't just two smart guys they're two smart guys that smart guys look to to figure out how to be smart guys that's big because they're they are people who shape opinion they're not just people with opinions if you didn't know that you would think this is a small story but when these two guys go public on the same side and unambiguously endorsing Trump after you've seen Bill Amman uh go you've seen um now there's a pretty long list of VES who have gone public command of the closet and of course Elon Musk and um and Jamie Diamond he's not supporting Trump as far as we know but even he said recently you know some of these criticisms about Trump are a little overblown so you're seeing people come out of the closet Mike cernovich said in uh in these words today uh you can now operate in quote legitimate Society while supporting Trump hard to overstate the implications of this for the 2024 election and future yep it is hard to overstate how important that is it it's really hard to overstate it and of course it was the assassination attempt that gave everybody the fake because that that was the ultimate permission it's like okay now we're seeing the things have gone way too far we we can come out under the cover of the you know hey can't be in favor of an assassination so that's good but I would like to thank cernovich for being one of the biggest Fighters for legitimizing the ability to just have an opinion and I would like to thank everybody who got cancelled everybody who had been maligned everybody who lost a job everybody who went first first everybody went first because although you know covich is correct in pointing out the bravery of the people who were uh coming out he was first right like he didn't wait there there are people who ran into the who ran into the fight first and you know it's very magnanimous of him to give credit to the people who are coming on board now they did have big reputations and lot lots to protect and you understand that it's a in the real world you have to take care of yourself a little bit you can't just run into danger um but there are some people who who saw the bigger picture faster and the people who saw the bigger picture faster in many cases made some pretty big sacrifices and uh cernovich is uh the leading general in that and I think that has to be called out because you have to look at the whole Arc of his work and the level of influence he's had to make this all possible he was the biggest voice that I saw advocating for JD Vance I think it made a difference I definitely think his his voice made a difference there so uh the you know there there are people that in my mind feel like Founders because I feel in a very real sense that something like the founding of the country is rehappening you know people said uh we're a dying a dying Republic and America we had our good 200 years and now we're dying you know what they were right except they didn't have the timing right we already died the founders are reforming the country now Democrats aren't going to want to hear this but I don't think it's a coincidence that God saved Trump at the same time that people who look like they're The Reincarnation of the founders have just Arisen you know when you've got a of aake who reminds me of Jefferson you've got a you've got a Elon Musk who reminds you of you know Ben Franklin you've got basically you could go down the line and you could map the founders to the current bunch of people you would map George Washington to Trump you when you saw Trump put his his hand up what was the first thing you thought from history the first thing I thought was that iconic painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware and you know Washington is standing up on the boat as if he would stand up on that little boat but you know and I I'm sure it's not based on a literal picture but um do you feel that the that that America actually did die I don't think we're trying to you know recover I think we died I I think that the Republic was dead I think that we've been run by some you know people in the background now for decades and just imagined we had some kind of country I do think that the founders have been reformed there there is some kind of larger Force that's making things happen that it's just hard to explain in any other filter now I remind you I'm not a I'm not a Believer myself but the filter that fits the best is that God formed America in the first place didn't like how it was going let it die but the economy kept cooking along and then it was time to reform it and I'm seeing a new America I'm not just seeing you know make America great again it just look like it's being reformed almost from scratch from first principles let's say from first principles if you look to vake he's he's a first principle guy says it all the time if you look at Elon Musk first principle kind of guy says it all the time what do all of the uh Venture capitalists the Andre Horwitz people what do they all have in common first person kind of people or first you know first principles they're basically wait wait wait let's let's back it up to what what the basic situation is and then reason it from there don't just get caught in the rhetoric and the narrative and stuff like that let's let's take it back we've never had this many capable people line up on the same side since the actual American Revolution there's an insane amount of talent that just found each other that does that feel like a coincidence to you I mean there's something happening here that's just way bigger than all of us and it could be just an emergent intelligence it could be an emerging intelligence I do believe that humans collectively form a meta intelligence that's bigger than the collection and it doesn't happen often because it doesn't need to if you don't have if you don't have a problem that is existential you don't need people to form a you know a larger consciousness we can just all do our own thing which is what I think we've been doing for a few hundred years largely doing our own thing oh you got a World War II thrown in there and you better come together for that but I think that the the the larger intelligence which is the combination of all the smartest people who know how to think not the people who are just the crazy people but the people who know how to think are finding each other they're finding the truth and they're going to put massive amount of money behind it and massive amount of reputational risk and they've decided you know how I always tell you about the difference between wanting and deciding there was a lot of wanting of trump to win there was a lot of wanting there wasn't enough deciding because deciding means you're going to do whatever it takes must just put his whole life on the line literally let me say that again Elon mus put his life on the line that's not an exaggeration because he knows I mean he's had two attempts on his life just recently um he knows what kind of risk this is he's not doing this blind he put his life on the line that's a decision that's not oh you know I'd rather have this candidate no that's a decision he's putting $45 million a month into the pack that's not wanting that's a decision all right so I think a lot of people have just decided and if you look at who the deciders are they're not your average people there's a lot of deciding going on right now all right uh let's see kend delanian for NBC News was I saw him reporting on this alleged Iranian assassination plot which has been bubbling for a while now so it didn't this is not new news it's a background news so it's sort of like context context is that uh us officials have had uh you know Intel about Iran trying to assassinate Trump for his assassination of um sulamani when he was in office when Trump was in office and and allegedly that background threat had prompted the Secret Service to uh enhance Trump's protection so what you saw on the day that he was shot was their enhanced protection against Iranian super Killers so their enhanced protection against highly trained Iranian assassins didn't stop the 20-year-old who borrowed his dad's gun and got a ladder so if that's the extra super beefed up security against the Iranian super assassins who one imagines would be quite well trained um I think they need a little more be beefing up that's not what I call beefing up but if you didn't not recognize the name I gave you kend delanian in NBC I will tell you that allegedly I have no personal know of this but uh I think this is the Glenn Greenwald filter on things that it would be well known again this is not my own claim the NBC and specifically kend delanian would be considered the voice of the CIA basically now that's not my claim that's that's the claim that smart people make I wouldn't know but isn't it kind of coincidental that something that would mock up the story would get into the story at just the right time now it does seem sort of related but not really because if the worry is that the shooter was in fact radicalized by Democrat talking points then the last thing you want is to not have a counternarrative it's like well I don't know we we don't know his motives it could have been yeah it just could have been the Iranians got to him so it just sort of introduces some doubt into something that probably shouldn't have any doubt at all if an American takes a shot at Trump is there any doubt that he was radicalized by the media or social media which is also radicalized by the proper media not really it's not one of those questions where you have to question his his motive now if you say oh but was influenced by this as well okay but still it's because you got there there is no scenario in which you take a shot at Trump just because you worked out the details on your own that came from somewhere 20-year-olds don't have their own opinions I had a conversation with some young people the other day uh who is not too far from that age of the 20y old who said that all of their friends uh are starting to hate Biden because Biden is uh too pro Israel and I said to him do your friends know that Trump is considered like the biggest friend of Israel ever and they looked at me and said what oh yeah so all all your friends who have decided that they don't like Biden because of Israel they don't know that Israel and Trump are the closest of any couple that have ever been and they said oh well actually to be fair nobody my age knows anything that that was the honest answer I got back nobody my age knows anything so then I tossed down a few I said well were you aware of this um no I said were you aware of this I've never heard of that before were you aware of this nope never heard that so that's what a 20-year-old knows what a 20-year-old knows is just nothing and nobody suggests that this was the the best informed 20-year-old nobody thinks that now I I see MK Ultra all over the place I I don't believe that the CIA can hypnotize somebody to be a killer so I speaking as a hypnotist I don't think that's the thing you could find somebody who's already you know ready to be pushed over the edge so you could maybe tip somebody over the edge you can't take somebody who wasn't thinking about it and turn them into an assassin the no hypnosis can do that now I mean the exception would be if you completely control them um you know and they saw no other people for three years and you you just brainwashed them every day in a secret room you could do that that actually would work but you can't just sort of talk to somebody in the real world send them some messages turn them into an assassin they they would have to be right on the edge of tipping anyway and then maybe you could do it but it'd be a hard I I don't think the CIA just hypnotized the guy to go kill the president my skill set says that's not really a thing not really but having this uh Iranian thing in here makes everything uh a little uh more uncertain and why is it that hearing so little about the uh let me tell you what I would expect to see here's the dog not barking are you ready dog not barking the 20-year-old had classmates all right now he's out High School of course but he had people who knew him in high school now apparently he was bullied and he wasn't popular but has anybody talked to his classmates and said they say he had no social media is that true his classmate to know if he had social media where where's that you know now you don't necessarily want to put them on camera because they'd be well they'd be 22 so that'd be fine so if you had some 20-year-old people who went to school with them and you say can you tell me that this is the only 20-year-old than he would have been 18 who has no social media just ask the people who know him they know for sure for sure they know if he had social media % they know now I can I can understand why the people doing the investigation maybe don't want to tell you anything yet because I you know it's an ongoing investigation but the news the news knows where he went to school the news knows his family the news could easily find his friends and why isn't the news telling us if he had social media because they could they could you think they couldn't figure that out you think there's no way an investigative Journal could find somebody who went to school with you just have to find one person you went to school with did this guy of social media of course he did or or oddly he did not right so that it's kind of missing it's kind of conspicuously missing anyway there's a a big headline news today um this is unusual I mean it's it's what it's the reason it made news you I've told you before that if a dog bites a man that's the old saying that's not news because that could happen but if a man bit a dog well that could be news you know that's the old saying so here's one of those it's I mean I know you didn't expect this so that's why it's news uh representative Adam Schiff told the truth at a private meeting and made headline news anyway next story oh you're probably wondering what he said well that's not the fun part what he said was just the truth that you already knew the story is that Adam Schiff told the truth that's literally the story I'm not making that up the story is that he told the truth the truth was that he uh thinks that the Democrats will lose everything if Biden stays in the job now don't you believe that that is the truth it's the truth that it's probably true because you know you're talking probab probabilistically it's probably true um and I probably believe he believes it so there was nothing new in the idea that the Democrats are panicked about losing everything so there was no news quality in the fact that there was this one person who believes what everybody else believ believes would you agree it's not news that there's somebody who believes what everybody else believes what's news is he told the truth just think about that that's exactly what made it a headline he told the truth that is how that that is how amazing that is and he did it on closed doors so apparently Biden is very sharp behind closed doors and behind closed doors sometimes Adam Schiff tells the truth so here's my advice you should uh stay away from sloped roofs and close doors y all right I posted a message today asking who has the best debunk on the January 6th Insurrection hoax because it appears that the media is retreated to that hoax so that's the their strongest remaining hoax because the fine people folks got debunked um you know Trump is rising in every other way he's he's unifying people so they're sort of running out of hoaxes and their their best play is now the January 6 one so I posted and it's my pinned post if you want to grab it by the way you should if you think you're going to get in this conversation you should literally screen grab or copy my post it's the pinned one this morning and I'll read it to you but I think this is the strongest argument that January 6 was not an Insurrection all right it goes like this several points number one uh if somebody says it was an Insurrection here would be your response explain to me how trespassing in one building leads to Conquering the United States so that that's the kill shot but then they're going to say if they know enough you know first of all they probably give up just on that point alone but if they know a little bit more they'd say whoa whoa whoa Scott hold on it wasn't just about the protesting no there was also this fake electoral situation so I mean that was the real that was the real C attempt to which uh I say explain how the alternate or you call them fake electors could have led to the Conquering of the United States can you conquer a country with paperwork did you feel that can you can you conquer a country with paperwork because the normal way that would have gone would have been oh I challenge this to the Supreme Court and then the Supreme Court looks at it and goes ah get rid of get rid of these fake electors and then that would be it just like everything else it it would be absolutely routine for the courts to reject this and then everybody goes their own way just like everything else but but what was the way in which it could have worked can can you imagine the situation it's like uh you know Pence is ready to certify the election and then some says wait wait wait wait we've got paperwork and then Pence does whatever he does but later do you imagine that the Democrats would get together later and they'd say wow we were pretty sure we won this thing fair and square but I didn't see that they would have paperwork they have paperwork people they have paperwork and then they say we we better just give them the country and then one of the Democrats would say well couldn't we just do some fake paperwork and take it back and the Democrats would be like what's your name you're a genius and he'd say Bob my name is Bob I don't know if that would be his name but let's say this I just kind of came up with it Bob that's that's that's just brilliant they try to take over the country with paperwork but does anybody have paper anybody you have paper bring some paper over here and bring a pen quick we're going to take this country back we resolve that the country comes back to us and by the way um does anybody want to be a senator as long as I'm doing some paperwork well we'll call you an alternate Senator but that's probably good enough to take over the country alternate senator who wants to be the alternate president oh we have one of those um alternate cabinet members anybody finally we have paperwork we will take over this country with our paperwork seriously people how was anybody going to take over the country with trespassing in one building and some paperwork but then but then hold on Scott hold on Scott it's like you don't even watch the news I think I got rid of my my Dale impression Dale will be making a comeback if you don't know dale dale is the uh the Democrat who looks a lot like me except he has a goatee and he says crazy things and he looks like this well Scott if it's not an Insurrection how do you explain all the cops that were killed there were no cops killed I've got horses well maybe you should Google them never mind I think Google probably erased it but how do you explain the lectr got moved what's your point the lectern the Lecter it got moved and just complete that point about the electron and therefore the Insurrection almost succeeded because the electron got moved there was also graffiti there was graffiti so they were trying to conquer the country with paperwork but also graffiti you didn't see it it was bad it was bad graffiti it was weaponized graffiti well so I just imagine it goes like that all right if you if you don't like those two so those are the two points you can't conquer a country by by trespassing and you can't conquer a country with paperwork if that would work I think somebody would have tried it already I would have tried it myself frankly I think I would have made a run at Conquering the country if I could do it with fake paperwork all right and then here's my my favorite one though is so one of the things we know from the um Communications of the day is that Don Jr was trying to stop the protests and you know get the president to say hey stand down and everything so we know very clearly that Don Jr was not in on any plot to take over the country and so I ask you this do you believe that Trump planned to take over the country and word never got to Don Jr because you think at the very least somebody would have said hey Don Jr you better protect all of your children' because if your father takes over the country they're in a lot of trouble and so is your old family and so are you so you might want to beef up your security because you know we're going to take over the country I feel like I feel like that would have been mentioned it would have been mentioned to Don Jr like how dumb do you have to be to think that Don Jr wouldn't be in on the plot I mean if the plot were real of course he would of course he would anyway um then here's my other point have you ever met a republican who would be okay with Trump or anyone else becoming a dictator that's the opposite of being a republican it's right in the name well it's not right in the name but the the whole point of being a republican is you like the Constitution there's no such thing as a republican who also kind of wants a dictator as long as the dictator is a good one and on their side that's not a thing there there are zero Republicans who would have been over okay with some kind of a coup zero I I've never even heard it privately I've never heard anybody whisper about it I've never heard anybody say you know it wasn't a coup but honestly if it had been I would have been Allin no there there's no Republican find me one Republican who would have ever had that a point of view it's not a thing now let's compare the the Insurrection narrative to what I call the more rational explanation here's the rational explanation that you never see on the the fake news so if it wasn't an Insurrection Scott what was it if it wasn't an Insurrection what was it what was it Scott what was it well maybe it was exactly what they said it was maybe if you simply asked all the people you believed were involved what is it you were trying to accomplish maybe do that maybe just ask them hey what was in your mind what were you trying to do don't you think that matters there were thousands of people there why not just ask them why were you there what were you trying to accomplish I've asked them so on behalf of the news that didn't do his job let me tell you what they would say they would say we thought the election looked sketchy and we wanted a little timeout to check to see if this problem was what we thought it was which was the election was stolen so we were trying to protect the election we were trying to protect the outcome and we're trying to protect the country protect the Republic and make sure that all of us all Americans got the result that they thought they voted for but what about those fake electors Scott what about the fake electors well why don't we ask them what they intended to do what they intended to do if you ask them is to uh preserve their legal challenge now did they do it right A lot of people would say no but does anybody doubt the intent does anybody have any question about the intention no the intention was to preserve their legal right now they thought that could lead to Trump staying in office but that would require of course that somebody looked into the election and found some problem with it which never happened all right so if you don't like debunking that let's talk about debunking climate change which looks like it's going to fall any moment um Steve Malloy who's been debunking climate stuff forever uh here's what he says now I'm going to say I don't know if his facts are the same as the official facts so you have to watch out if everybody's using the same sources of data and I don't know the answer to that but here's what he says that for the last nine years uh the temperature has on average gone down um and you therefore you would have to believe that over that time 450 billion tons of CO2 got into the air between 2015 and 2023 and it didn't do what it was predicted to do and then on top of that so so that's the first claim so the first claim is that the temperatures didn't go up but the CO2 CO2 went up massively and if you're only talking about one year or two years you'd say okay we we didn't claim every single year was going to be a straight line up just the average would but it would be pretty hard to argue that over an eight or ninee period that you didn't see any impact of climate change none at the period when it was the most CO2 not only in the air but the most added to the air and in that entire time um in that entire time that uh I was just looking at a reframe that somebody had is pretty good um so in that entire time nothing went up now remember the claim is that the temperatures do not show warming over that period I'm pretty sure the climate change people would say it did so they might be looking at different data I don't there's I have some questions there uh but then there's also a tonga volcano that uh erupted in 2022 which some say this is in Zero Hedge that uh accounted for basically all of the extra warmth so you didn't debunk anything Brian snik died oh there's some is there somebody here who doesn't know uh that Brian snck you know that's a fake story right there's somebody yelling in all caps you didn't debunk anything Brian snik died no you unfortunately you got some fake news there so he just wants to say it over and over again yeah no you got fake news done that check your news you'll find out you've been you've been hoaxed uh meanwhile John Deere has released a statement saying they're uh backing off on their Dei policies and they're going to commit to just helping their customers now so I think they're going to get rid of some of their Dei stuff and stop focusing on pronouns and stuff like that and that would be big win for Robbie Starbuck who was the person who who originally noticed and started uh started advocating that they changed their ways and got enough public attention on it that they actually backed off now some say maybe they'll just change the names of things and keep going but honestly they look pretty serious about it right they look pretty serious all right right um there's a study that said uh 2third of children's calories come from Ultra processed foods so no surprise that kids are not healthy two-thirds of their calories come from processed foods now you probably saw the leaked uh audio and video of RFK Jr talking to Trump and they were talking quite in a friendly way and Trump seemed to be indicating um oh somebody saying if the riot didn't happen the policeman wouldn't have died okay well that's just a whole different claim yeah so that that's a stupid claim so stop being stupid I I I have a a comment here is just stupid so stop being stupid okay yeah just stop being stupid I there's nothing else to say about that just don't be stupid anymore in public be be stupid in private that'd be better anyway if RFK Jr did have any interest in working with Trump um I would love to see him working on this uh big issue which is our food supply and our vaccine process uh need to be relooked at and uh it sounded like Trump was sort of hinting in that direction that maybe he would have a role and of course he's running for running against Trump so he's not going to say yes to anything like that but I think Trump made it clear that he could work with RFK junr if if it was the right right fit which would be Unity that would be unity and uh here's a study you probably didn't know about this but new study says that uh orgasms can help women with stress well who knew that but it's more than that um other Studies have also shown that orgasms can help you with pain relief they can help you with reduce migraines they can boost your immunity it can unblock your nose uh it's good for your heart health and uh it also boost your Feelgood hormones like your oxytocin and your dopamine and stuff like that now I don't know if you've ever heard me say this before but I could have saved them a lot of money yeah you didn't really need to check that uh Scott we're we're thinking of doing this study to find out if orgasms make people feel better I'm going to say yes oh thank you wow you just saved us $200,000 ah you're welcome is there anything else I can do for you well we're also wondering if if it reduced your stress especially for women yes oh wow you just saved us another $200,000 we I swear we were going to study that but you knew the answer all log I did I did I I knew that one how about uh it'll boost your immunity yes it will all right here's my serious answer I swear I'm not making this up probably 40 years ago I discovered that no matter how badly I felt or what kind of sickness or illness or pain I had I could kind of make it all go away and I said to myself wait a minute this can't be a coincidence that when you get in that certain mode that all your problems go away like you I don't I don't have a mental problem but I also didn't have physical problems like it would make the flu go away I mean not go away but it wouldn't hurt at least while you were in that mode and here was my hypothesis I developed literally 40 years ago that your mating Instinct uh is so strong that it will erase your other problems so in other words your body is made to reproduce so you put it in a mating Instinct mode even if you're all by yourself if you're in your mating Instinct mode and your body is registering mating then it goes to its highest health situation in other words it it puts you in the best situation to complete the task because if you wanted to mate but you had a stomach ache well maybe you'd not do it if you wanted to mate but you had a migraine well you probably wouldn't be in the mood if you wanted to mate but you I don't know you you felt uh some pain you probably wouldn't do it so I had noticed that being in that orgasmic you know mindset uh makes all your pain go away and I had always hypothesized that there must be an obvious and logical evolutionary reason which is you're better at reproducing if your body is all working right and so that the moment you have an opportunity to be an a mating moment even if you're by yourself that your body just says all right we're going to fix everything your immune system is boosted your pain goes away your migraine's gone you got a little more energy how about a little oxytocin would you like some dopamine because you need the dopamine to act you know that's the thing that actually makes you do a thing so no it was not difficult to understand that this was going to be good for people now that ladies and gentlemen concludes my prepared marks and uh thanks for joining if you're on the xor rumble or um You.

Tube platforms make sure you pick up my newest book God's debris the complete works it's up ated and it combines the religion War the gods debris and a new short story and it's available on Amazon and people are loving it they're loving it and by the way I said this before but if you want to see another view of why that bullet didn't get Trump and only his ear this book will be another way to look at that and you won't see it until you're done with it but once it all comes together in your head you can say oh man I wonder if that's what's happening so that's the teaser you will enjoy the book I guarante it now uh bye to everybody except the locals people I'm going to talk to you right now thanks everybody else see you tomorrow e e e e e e e e e e e e

uh

oh well we got a show

[Music]

today good morning everybody and welcome

to the highlight of human civilization

it's called coffee with Scott Adams

there's never been a better time in your

life and if you'd like to enjoy this

experience at levels that nobody can

even understand with their tiny shiny

human brains all you need is a CO marker

a glass of tanker chaler Stein a canteen

Jugger flask a vessel of any kind fill

it with your favorite look and I like

coffee and join me now for the

unparallel pleasure the dope am me of

the day thing makes everything better

it's called the simultaneous zp it

happens now go

Ah that's some good

sipping well Peter Navaro is getting

freed today is he already freed has

anybody heard from him yet I always

wonder about the day that you're

supposed to be freed from prison did did

they make it happen right

away because I always wonder do you wake

up in the morning and say oh today's

today's the day I go free and then you

you call the guard over and say today's

the day today's the day I go free

then the guard looks at you and

says that's after the shift that's at

5:00 you're like wait a minute today's

the day I go free I don't go like when I

wake up no sort of an end of day thing

you got you got to serve some more jail

today how's that

work somebody says he's already out it

seems like they would do a first thing

in the morning doesn't

it all right well we'll celebrate that

in a bit no we're going to celebrate now

with a sip of

coffee who's with me Peter Navaro sip of

coffee Peter if you're

watching glad you're out it's about

time stronger probably

go all right everything seems to be

going Trump's way directly and

indirectly seems like uh seems like God

has chosen him I don't know if that true

but it looks like

it do you know do you know how much how

many coincidences or events it takes

before somebody who doesn't even I'm not

even a believer but but even I think it

looks like God is chosen

Trump it's getting harder and harder to

deny at this

point all right he's he's out Peter Naro

is out anyway gold bar Bob New Jersey

Senator Bob Menendez he's found

guilty of taking money from uh some

Egyptian

people as as GRE

Greg Greg geld said last night on G geld

he said he sounded like a pyramid

scheme cuz he took money from Egyptians

oh anyway it's pretty funny uh but also

from a qari or their

government so here's the

question isn't it

lucky that there was just that one

criminal in Congress thank goodness we

got that one guy who's trading favors

for

money we we finally got that one

guy it makes me think he must have like

pissed off the intelligence service or

something he must have made somebody mad

who normally you know would just let

things go it's like we can make a can

make a some kind of an example on a gold

bar

Bob well there's an update on Biden's

brain uh apparently before Trump was uh

nearly assassinated he had a zoom call

with a bunch of moderate

Democrats and uh the call went like this

uh President Biden what do you plan to

do to resurrect your campaign and get it

going

again well anyway so something like that

so reportedly it was bad it was bad

really bad but here's what I don't

understand how was it that he looked

completely

coherent in the evening when he talked

about the assassination

attempt how did they drug him up or is

it just totally random cuz he looked

presidential but he couldn't do a zoom

call earlier that

day know this is all very

mysterious well so Biden is talking

about uh Supreme Court limits uh well

actually term

limits and I saw in their comments that

some people are saying that he can't do

it he doesn't have the authority and the

interesting thing would be if he tried

to Institute term

limits and there was a legal

objection and it got

appealed am I wrong that the Supreme

Court gets to decide on its own whether

it can have term limits because it will

decide whether the ruling was

constitutional or not do do we have the

Absurd situation where the Supreme Court

will vote on whether they get fired

now that'll be fun I I'm assuming

there'll be all kinds of legal analyses

that are Arcane and weird and don't seem

obvious but

uh unconfirmed Miracle

drugs what are we talking about

somebody's talking about uncon oh the

miracle drugs to get uh get Biden to

talk okay I'm on

all right rasmuson has a uh poll on what

people think of the shooters motives 40%

of likely voters think it's uh he's just

you know mentally

ill but 41% believe it was mainly caused

by uh the the Democrats basically the

the rhetoric against Trump so 41% of the

country believes that the way Biden and

the Democrats were talking caused an

assassination

attempt and I've got a feeling that some

of those 40% who just think it's mental

illness did they think do they think

Trump was chosen randomly if your

opinion was that the reason for the

shooting was mental illness do you think

he randomly chose the

president or randomly from mental

illness now mental illness or not he he

picked a specific spefic person and the

hardest one to get so it had to be a

little bit about something about Trump

and how would a 20-year-old know

anything about

Trump their opinions are assigned by the

media these are assigned opinions so I

would say that the 40% who say he

mentally ill is really the same as the

41% who said it's caused by Trump's

rhetoric to me this looks like 81% of

people think it's the rhetoric caused it

now if he was also mentally ill you know

that's a contributing factor but

certainly the rhetoric no matter what no

matter how sane he was he didn't

randomly pick the guy that they've been

calling Hitler for

years so then there's a quote from JD

Vance uh that says the uh Central

premise of the Biden campaign is that

Trump was an authoritarian fascist who

must be stopped at all costs and the

rhetoric led directly to the attempt of

assassination apparently 61% of likely

voters agreed with that quote so that

would suggest that at least some of the

people who thought mental illness was

part of it also think the rhetoric was

part of it too so that makes sense split

the

difference all right so Dan Bonino Don

Bonino who I would consider one of the

best voices on the whole topic of how

the shooter did what he did in the

Secret Service Etc Bonino is the one to

listen to he's got the best Insight on

that I would

think but he said he had an

unimpeachable source that there was a

police officer whose job it was to

secure that area apparently um did not

show up for

work and there's no word yet why is

there an update on that I didn't see an

update this morning but the

unimpeachable source says there should

have been somebody on the roof and the

roof guy didn't show up but we don't

know why the roof guy didn't show

up now that still makes the

possibility that there was some you know

some

Shenanigans because we don't know why

the roof guy didn't show up however I

remind you that so far every single part

of the story is consistent with the Sil

filter that people are way less capable

than you imagine they are and that

people can make way more mistakes than

you think possible and Dei has probably

infected the competence of the entire

operation plus they had temps you it

wasn't I call them temps they weren't

the regular crew so you had lots of

reasons for

incompetence but I will admit that every

part of the story is also compatible

with a you know a wild

plot I don't know how you can rule it

out exactly how do you rule out well

there was a secret plot that we can't

find you

know but let me show you this if I can

make this

work here's a Peter Duke went through

the effort of putting together aerial

map that shows the location of stuff now

you can't see it too clearly on my

screen if you want to see the good one

with the high resolution go to my feed

on X it'll be there this morning and

anyway it shows the locations of the

shooter the people who got shot and uh

some locations that the people who were

conspiracy theorists who might had not

be right but the conspiracy theorists

are imagining a second shooter and they

think they see evidence of it

Etc um I'm going to say

that confirmation um confirmation bias

would get you all the way

there meaning that even though you're

pretty sure that you've seen uh evidence

that the shock could not have come from

one place and there must have been

multiple Shooters and you heard too many

and something bounced off a railing and

somebody got shot who was in the wrong

place it couldn't have happened must

have been somebody in the you know so

anyway all that stuff is swirling around

in my opinion the the hypothesis that it

was part of a bigger plot and somebody

else was involved is still live that's

that's a live

hypothesis the competing one that it was

just massive incompetence like we see

everywhere else all the time is also

Fully

Alive so you've got two theories that

are they're living completely I mean

both of them you can't put a glove on

them

you know I'd love to say that the dilber

filter that it's just incompetence is

the one that's better because the other

one has some flaws but the other one

doesn't really have any

flaws it looks completely consistent

with some kind of a larger plot doesn't

mean it is but it seems completely

consistent with that now one of the uh

things we found out is that the shooter

had a remote control and had a bomb or

actually two bombs in his car in the

parking

lot and people are saying what's that

for they also say how did he know how to

make a bomb with a remote

control is that something you could look

up on the

internet and and if he was looking up

that kind of stuff on the

internet and he didn't have any social

media presence none of this makes sense

does it and if you could make an i IED

that you could uh detonate from a

distance wouldn't he use that and why

did he have it in the first place if

he's going to shoot why does he need the

IEDs somebody said it would be to create

a

diversion so you shoot the president you

blow up a car everybody looks at the car

you run away

maybe I've got a feeling it was more

that he wanted to if he got into the car

I think he was thinking to himself that

if he escaped long enough to get into

the car and if they caught him in the

car it would be better to blow up the

car with himself in it so it might have

been a future suicide attempt in case he

got halfway escaped and they pulled over

the car and then he could blow up the

car and something like that so we don't

know but I have real

questions about a guy who could put

together a remote control bomb I don't

know how I have no idea how hard that is

I mean obviously it happens in the

Middle East all the time but I don't

know see seems like that's a little bit

suggestive of some help

now do you believe that he has no social

media or do you believe they're hiding

it from

you because here's the uh the

professional liar uh

tell I've told you that there's there's

regular Liars

just politicians right all the

politicians are just sort of normal

Liars but then there's a special Elite

group of liars that the Democrats bring

out when they got the big lie the really

big ones the ones that nobody else is

even willing to talk about because it's

just

ridiculous so swell is already out uh

and swalwell is one of the the group of

uh designated Liars that they sent out

when they got a Whopper to tell and he's

telling that it's that the shooter was a

registered Republican and that uh he had

uh Trump signs at his house do you know

what swall left out he doesn't have a

house it's his parents' house he lived

with his parents but the person who

lives with the parents doesn't get to

decide what signs are on the front lawn

so there is evidence that the parents

are a republican there is evidence that

the shooter is registered as

Republican now if the if the shooter

registered as Republican does that mean

anything maybe yes maybe no I'm a

registered Democrat and you're listening

to me so you can't

trust what people register as I I can I

can confirm

that so we don't know if that means

anything we saw pictures of him wearing

an American flag and a shirt not too

long ago which suggests he had some

patriotic leanings which suggests a

little more Republican leaning than not

he obviously was comfortable with a gun

and guns in the house which again is

suggesting

Republican

but the fact that swell is the one who

has to come out and tell you he was a

republican strongly suggests that they

know that's not the case he he's an

indicator of the opposite so if you see

swell shiff or Rasin or Brennan or

Clapper they're all opposite guys

whatever they tell you it's the opposite

because they only bring them out they

only bring them out when they've got a

Whopper to tell it's it's pretty

consistent all

right now by the way uh if if you wonder

why I sound like I'm healthy today and

last night I sounded like I was going to

die if you heard me on the man cave live

stream uh I had some kind of allergic

reaction so I thought I was dying of Co

last night but it was some kind of

massive allergic reaction all better

now um so it wasn't sickness it was

something else um I do blame my sloped

roof um I was feeling fine and then

somebody said but Scott you have a

sloped roof next thing I know I was near

death so slope roofs roofs very very

dangerous stay away from

them well Jake Tapper and the CNN crew

uh got lered as they say Laura lomer did

the uh what do you call it the uh the

sneak attack where they're walking from

one place to the other and you try to

yell at them interview questions that

they're not going to ask so I guess

there were three different entities that

all are after CNN for being fake news

there's no real story to that except

that CNN became the

news have you notice that the news is

the

news right because even though we're

talking about an assassination attempt

that's the the top

news what was the main cause of the

assassination attempt well according to

the rasmuson poll there's a pretty big

chunk of Americans who say the news is

the problem the news because would you

even know that the Democrats were saying

bad things about Trump well no it's the

news it's not that the Democrats said it

I think if I think if the only thing

that happened was Democrats said bad

things you'd say ah politics but if you

turn the thing you think is your news

and it's

MSNBC and you see people who you think

know more than you because they're the

news and they're telling you they Hitler

is going to get

reelected maybe you believe

it so I would say the news is the news I

think the news is the cause of the

assassination attempt I think the news

is the reason you believe the fine

people hoax because they won't debunk it

I think the news is the reason you

believe the January 6 hoax other people

do not you uh we'll talk about that um

so really the news is the

news and I think Jake Tapper is the news

he's not just the person who reported

he's the news because why has he been

saying the things he's been saying by

the way I don't think he's you know the

worst of the worst or anything he's just

in that in the

conversation so yeah once the news

becomes the

news you need to

correct yeah you're going to have to

find

something all right um I don't know if

you saw the story Caris swisher and

Scott Galloway who some people think is

my clone but he's not he's not my clone

I disavow him because he got uh he was

on a podcast making some assassination

jokes uh I'm not going to repeat it but

he made a assassination joke and and

what some people think was too

soon now I feel that it wasn't so much a

too soon story you know I'm not the one

who's going to cancel somebody for a

joke even even one I don't like right

you know I have to be consistent I'm not

the one who's going to cancel somebody

for a joke even a poor taste joke I tell

I tell jokes and poor taste nearly every

day often in public

so it's more revealing about what they

actually

think and I do

think that there are quite a few people

who want people like me to be literally

dead like actually literally dead

now why is

that is it because they accurately know

things I've said is it because they

accurately know things Trump has said

and done no it's the news the news is

the story again if you think this is a

story about Caris Wisher and Scott

Galloway having some opinions you don't

like that were stated in a way that

became public that's not exactly the

story the story is they're victims too

meaning that they are just as

brainwashed as most of the most of the

world actually so the brainwashing is

the story and it's the news the news is

brainwashing people to say things that

when you look at them you say my God but

moreover it also tells you something

about their

bubble how did you not know that that

was would be taken really really

badly because they act like you know

people are going to love it I think

that's the problem that Jack Black

Tenacious D concert that got cancelled

because one of the bandmates said

something Pro

assassination I think that you say that

in front of a crowd of people because

you're so in your bubble that it doesn't

occur to you that half of them might be

deeply deeply offended by that and they

were probably I don't know if it was

half but a

lot anyway Biden apparently uh his

Department of

energy has an AI road map now you might

say what does the department of energy

have to do with AI well AI will suck up

massive amounts of energy so much there

wouldn't be enough left for human beings

literally um so we've got a really big

problem and it might not be solved by

building more power plants because it

takes a long time to build a nuke

facility for example but one of the

things they want to do is figure out how

to make AI super computers more energy

efficient which totally seems like

that's worth doing so in our highly

contentious World I'd like to say that

looks like good

work I have no problem with that I I

think uh having my government um do some

kind of a nationalist initiative to try

to make the AI super computer is more

energy efficient so it doesn't suck up

all our energy and we all die in the

fields that just seems like a solid good

idea so sometimes we can say that the

Biden Administration did something right

I hope this is it I don't know all the

details but I

hope well meanwhile some uh what what

are being called uh Trump

allies you have to watch out for this

story that's your first signal that

there's something up a trump Ally

what's that tell

you I don't I haven't even told you the

story yet but but if it start if it

starts with Trump allies it's going to

be something that somebody's going to

try to smear Trump with that did not

come from

Trump you all know that right any story

that starts with Trump allies because

that's how the project 2025 thing

started and then Trump has to explain I

don't basically don't know what's in

there what I heard I don't like right

but then people say oh but they're your

allies and then I heard uh van Jones

saying that the Republican Party hasn't

done enough to get rid of the um the

white supremacist the racists in the

party now how dumb do you have to be as

a consumer of news to think that's a

good point that the Republicans haven't

done enough to get rid of the bad people

in the

party you know that Republicans don't

have any control over that

right they they can't excommunicate

people they can people can register any

way they want and then they can say

anything they want and then they can

vote free speech is still possible even

if you hate it which is really the

entire point of free speech is that it

allows the stuff you don't like and what

are the Democrats doing to get rid of

their bad people I

mean so you you even have van Jones has

retreated to a really a stupid point you

know let let me be blunt and I know he's

too smart to think it's a good point so

if a smart person has to use a stupid

point that somehow Republicans could

excommunicate the people they don't like

in the party um if all he's got left is

a stupid point and you know he knows

it's stupid because he's smart right if

he were stupid I'd say hm does he not

know that's a bad point no he's very

smart he knows it's a bad point it's all

he's got you know they're basically an

an of ammunition so you got to you got

to go to the stupid stuff

really and we'll talk about January 6 in

a

bit all right so anyway the Trump allies

have crafted an AI executive order that

they'd like Trump to sign on to and uh

it's been viewed exclusively by the

Washington

post do you see the second

tell uh do you think the Trump

allies are really ones that Trump has

endorsed to do this work for him no and

do you think if it were Trump allies and

Trump liked it and the Allies were all

on the same page do you think that they

would it would be released only to The

Washington Post or maybe leaked we don't

know if it was released or

leaked no The Washington Post is not a

credible entity the Trump allies are not

a credible description of

anybody and they have some kind of

Manhattan project idea for a military Ai

and slashing burdensome

regulations I would say I would not

believe any part of that

story it could be some elements are true

but it's coming from such a non-credible

place you should just discount it

entirely if later some credible entity

that's not the Washington Post uh says

it's true well then you know maybe

upgrade the like the likelihood there's

a story here uh then you got to see who

these Trump allies are because you know

how much have they actually talk to

Trump about any of this and would JD

Vance think it's a good idea would V

think it's a good idea by the way how

much do you love the fact that nothing

stupid can get to Trump

anymore think about it

the Trump now has a smart filter that he

surrounded himself with that's largely

impenetrable there is no way that

something just stupid is going to get

all the way to Trump and turn into a

policy because you got V standing in the

way you got JD van standing in the way

you got Elon Musk standing in the

way you've got most of silicon Valley's

smartest Venture capitalists we'll talk

about in a moment standing in the way

now he didn't have that before right he

did not he had you know smart people of

course but he didn't have that that

that's like an impenetrable shield of

high IQ people who are going to make

sure that the dumb doesn't get to

Trump and if it does it's not going to

stick they're they're gonna they're

going to give him a silkwood bath if he

gets any dumb in there so I've

never felt so confident about a

presidency you know if you know fingers

crossed that becomes Trump he he is

assembling the most credible team and

then we heard today that there's some

talk of Jamie Diamond being considered

for treasury now I can't imagine that he

would ever take that job because Jamie

dond has like the best job ever if

you're in that space uh and working for

the government and working for Trump is

pretty much putting a Target on your

back so I can't imagine you'd take the

job but but I love the fact that it's

not

crazy I I mean Jamie Diamond did say hey

hey you know Trump got some things right

which is not being a trump supporter

that's not a trump supporter he's just

saying you know the criticism is a

little off

base could he do it the fact that we're

even talking about it as a

possibility when jamy Diamond was being

talked about as a potential replacement

for

Biden is kind of phenomen

Al I mean if you think about what that

would look like in terms of unity it

would be incredible now and I would say

to Jamie Diamond if I were advising you

what's good for you in your life don't

do it if you get

asked it's that's going to be a tough

assignment you know you might want to

you know keep your reputation

intact

but if you've got the

guts and if you're the Patriot that I

actually think you

are it would be a hell of a service to

the country assuming that it's the story

is real and it's really being considered

and it really gets offered um it would

be a hell of a service and I I for one

would have extreme gratitude for anybody

who took that kind of a just a pure risk

for the benefit of the country there's

nothing in it for Jamie Diamond there's

nothing in it but if he did it

that would look like pure Pure service

so I don't expect it because that's a

lot to ask for anybody especially if

they have a family and you know

everything else but wow just the fact

that it's even being considered is is

quite quite

interesting all right fed is looking at

cutting some rates that's you know your

good news bad news the FED doesn't look

at cutting rates unless the economy is

starting to drag and and unemployment

isn't as good as it is or good as as it

should

be but we're always going to put a

political uh spin on everything right so

if the FED cuts the rates it's going to

look positive for the economy the stock

market presumably will go up it's going

to it's going to help Biden's argument

hey look what I've done the economy

loves me and then of course the people

who are smarter than that will say h but

the stock market is a forward indicator

which is really already priced in Trump

so it's already a trump Market I'm just

going to say it the stock market is a

trump Market from now

on is that fair would you agree it's a

trump Market I think it's going to

respond to what they expect Trump will

do from this point on because he's the

presumed

winner all right

um Elon Musk says he's moving uh two of

his headquarters out of California so

he's moving the ex people and he's

moving the SpaceX headquarters H and of

California and he says the reason is

that California's new law that uh

basically uh tells schools that they can

transition your kid without your

knowledge now that's my own description

that's not that's not what what anybody

smart would say uh what smart people

would say it the the schools are not

required to tell parents if the child is

identifying as a different uh gender I

guess now is anybody okay with

that I I have real questions is there

any

parent anywhere democrat or republican

any is there any parent who thinks

that's a good idea for their own

children you know maybe they think it's

a good idea for your kids or something

but I I feel

like I feel like there's no actual human

being who has children who thinks that's

a good idea that sounds like something

that childless people would

say like what what parent would ever

give up their own rights over their own

children I you no matter what the right

was why would a parent ever give up a

right that involves their own

children the I don't understand how

there's even one person who could be in

favor of that I've never heard of the

argument what what's even the

argument because the argument is you

know presumably something like um the

parents don't have the best interests of

the kids in mind in some cases I assume

that's the argument right but what

parent would be in in favor of

that there's no parent who would be in

favor so did people without kids make

decisions for people with

kids I don't know what went on there I I

don't know how such a absurd thing could

happen now I do suspect that Elon Musk

had a bit of a fake because meaning that

he was already talking about moving X

that conversation was happening and if

he's going to move X and the Space X uh

C gravity is already in Texas or

someplace

else you know it just makes sense he

wanted to consolidate his businesses

where he spends more time so it probably

just means less travel for him and less

fewer taxes you know fewer problems with

the state messing with you but I do like

the fact that he tied it to a political

event and uh allowed his communication

to be louder because it was tied to an

economic event so so it makes it look

clear that California is giving up a lot

of

money to have these ridiculous laws

that that law is just batshit crazy

there there's nothing to even argue

about it it's just batshit crazy you

can't take the parents out of raising

you know a decision as basic as the

kids oh anyway I I don't have to argue

it because you're all in the same page

well let me test is there even one

person in the comments who thinks that's

a good

law I don't even have to look do I

there's not one person here I don't know

how that gets

approved quite quite a

mystery well last night at the

Republican National Convention uh was

enemies unit night I guess Nikki Haley

was there endorsing Trump and V gave a

great speech brought down the house

Endor Trump

DeSantis um dorson Trump now that is a

good so that's great messaging because

remember the whole point of trump is

he's trying to unite so if if you're

going to be a uniter I can't think of

anything better to you know start that

moving than getting the people on your

own team to unite and apparently he has

so the the unity among the Republicans

is the best I've seen in many years and

that's on Trump now it's on lock the

luck of surviving an assassination but

that's on Trump so during a trump time

the Republican Party came together the

ones who are still anti-trump are

just you know not serious people at this

point they're not serious

people there's a question whether v

ramaswami um would accept if he were

offered um to be the replacement senator

in

Ohio and V says he's going to talk to

Trump about how V can be the most useful

whether it's that or something

else and I'd love to know what the

alternative is

wouldn't you love to have that option

hey VI um you don't have to even run for

election um could we just make you a

senator and V's options are so good that

he can say I don't know let me mle that

over with my other

opportunities just try to hold that in

your head yeah here's somebody that you

never even heard of you know two years

ago or whatever and he did such a good

job running for president even in a you

know ultimate losing effort he did such

a good job that he's literally having a

conversation I don't know Senator

Senator without spending any money

without even having to run for it I

don't know I I'll put that on my list of

things I'll

consider do you realize what kind of

talent is coming into the

administration I'm just just hold that

in your brain for a second the level of

talent that's coming in that even that

conversation is a conversation is is

Senate good enough for you would like

you know maybe you should be head of

Homeland Security you know is there is

there a better job that would make more

sense oh Senator is okay I could settle

for a

senator I just love that story anyway

Andre Horwitz uh that's a big VC outfit

in the valley are endorsing Trump now if

you don't know the

players and you just heard oh there's a

couple of uh money people in Silicon

Valley who kind of decided to endorse

Trump no that's not what

happened if you're a little closer to

the situation you know I live around

here so you know just by osmosis you you

end you end up knowing the

players and J and Horowitz aren't just

two smart guys they're two smart guys

that smart guys look to to figure out

how to be smart

guys that's big because they're they are

people who shape

opinion they're not just people with

opinions if you didn't know that you

would think this is a small story but

when these two guys go public on the

same side and unambiguously endorsing

Trump after you've seen Bill

Amman uh go you've seen um now there's a

pretty long list of VES who have gone

public command of the closet and of

course Elon Musk and um and Jamie

Diamond he's not supporting Trump as far

as we know but even he said recently you

know some of these criticisms about

Trump are a little

overblown so you're seeing people come

out of the

closet Mike cernovich said in uh in

these words today uh you can now operate

in quote legitimate Society while

supporting Trump hard to overstate the

implications of this for the 2024

election and

future yep it is hard to overstate how

important that is it it's really hard to

overstate it and of course it was the

assassination attempt that gave

everybody the fake because that that was

the ultimate permission it's like okay

now we're seeing the things have gone

way too far we we can come out under the

cover of the you know hey can't be in

favor of an

assassination so that's good but I would

like to thank

cernovich for being one of the biggest

Fighters for legitimizing the ability to

just have an

opinion and I would like to thank

everybody who got cancelled everybody

who had been maligned everybody who lost

a job everybody who went first

first everybody went first because

although you know covich is correct in

pointing out the bravery of the people

who were uh coming out he was

first right like he didn't wait there

there are people who ran into the who

ran into the

fight

first and you know it's very magnanimous

of him to give credit to the people who

are coming on board now they did have

big reputations and lot lots to protect

and you understand that it's a in the

real world you have to take care of

yourself a little bit you can't just run

into danger um but there are some people

who who saw the bigger picture

faster and the people who saw the bigger

picture faster in many cases made some

pretty big

sacrifices and uh cernovich is uh the

leading general in that and I think that

has to be called out because you have to

look at the whole Arc of his work and

the level of influence he's had to make

this all

possible he was the biggest voice that I

saw advocating for JD Vance I think it

made a difference I definitely think his

his voice made a difference there so uh

the you know there there are people that

in my mind feel like

Founders because I feel in a very real

sense that something like the founding

of the country is rehappening

you know people said uh we're a dying a

dying Republic and America we had our

good 200 years and now we're dying you

know what they were

right except they didn't have the timing

right we already

died the founders are reforming the

country now Democrats aren't going to

want to hear this but I don't think it's

a coincidence that God saved Trump at

the same time that people who look like

they're The Reincarnation of the

founders have just

Arisen you know when you've got a of

aake who reminds me of Jefferson you've

got a you've got a Elon Musk who reminds

you of you know Ben Franklin you've got

basically you could go down the line and

you could map the founders to the

current bunch of people you would map

George Washington to

Trump you when you saw Trump put his his

hand up what was the first thing you

thought from

history the first thing I thought was

that iconic painting of George

Washington crossing the Delaware and you

know Washington is standing up on the

boat as if he would stand up on that

little boat but you know and I I'm sure

it's not based on a literal picture but

um do you

feel that the that that America actually

did die I don't think we're trying to

you know recover I think we

died I I think that the Republic was

dead I think that we've been run by some

you know people in the background now

for decades and just imagined we had

some kind of country I do think that the

founders have been reformed there there

is some kind of larger Force that's

making things happen that it's just hard

to explain in any other filter now I

remind you I'm not a I'm not a Believer

myself but the filter that fits the best

is that God formed America in the first

place didn't like how it was going let

it die but the economy kept cooking

along and then it was time to reform it

and I'm seeing a new America I'm not

just seeing you know make America great

again it just look like it's being

reformed almost from scratch from first

principles let's say from first

principles if you look to vake he's he's

a first principle guy says it all the

time if you look at Elon Musk first

principle kind of guy says it all the

time what do all of the uh Venture

capitalists the Andre Horwitz people

what do they all have in

common first person kind of people or

first you know first principles they're

basically wait wait wait let's let's

back it up to what what the basic

situation is and then reason it from

there don't just get caught in the

rhetoric and the narrative and stuff

like that let's let's take it back we've

never had this many capable people line

up on the same side since the actual

American

Revolution there's an insane amount of

talent that just found each

other that does that feel like a

coincidence to you I mean there's

something happening here that's just way

bigger than all of us and it could be

just an emergent

intelligence it could be an emerging

intelligence I do believe that humans

collectively form a meta intelligence

that's bigger than the

collection and it doesn't happen often

because it doesn't need to if you don't

have if you don't have a problem that is

existential you don't need people to

form a you know a larger consciousness

we can just all do our own thing which

is what I think we've been doing for a

few hundred years largely doing our own

thing oh you got a World War II thrown

in there and you better come together

for that

but I

think that the the the larger

intelligence which is the combination of

all the smartest people who know how to

think not the people who are just the

crazy people but the people who know how

to think are finding each other they're

finding the

truth and they're going to put massive

amount of money behind it and massive

amount of reputational risk and they've

decided you know how I always tell you

about the difference between wanting and

deciding there was a lot of wanting of

trump to

win there was a lot of wanting there

wasn't enough

deciding because deciding means you're

going to do whatever it takes must just

put his whole life on the line literally

let me say that again Elon mus put his

life on the

line that's not an

exaggeration because he knows I mean

he's had two attempts on his life just

recently um he knows what kind of risk

this is he's not doing this blind he put

his life on the line that's a decision

that's not oh you know I'd rather have

this candidate no that's a

decision he's putting $45 million a

month into the pack that's not

wanting that's a

decision all right

so I think a lot of people have just

decided and if you look at who the

deciders are they're not your average

people there's a lot of deciding going

on right

now all

right uh let's

see kend delanian for NBC News was I saw

him reporting on this alleged Iranian

assassination plot which has been

bubbling for a while now so it didn't

this is not new news it's a background

news so it's sort of like context

context is that uh us

officials have had uh you know Intel

about Iran trying to assassinate Trump

for his assassination of um sulamani

when he was in office when Trump was in

office and and allegedly that background

threat had prompted the Secret Service

to uh enhance Trump's

protection so what you saw on the day

that he was shot was their enhanced

protection against Iranian super

Killers so their enhanced protection

against highly trained Iranian

assassins didn't stop the 20-year-old

who borrowed his dad's gun and got a

ladder

so if that's the extra super beefed up

security against the Iranian super

assassins who one imagines would be

quite well

trained um I think they need a little

more be beefing up that's not what I

call beefing up but if you didn't not

recognize the name I gave you kend

delanian in NBC I will tell you that

allegedly I have no personal know of

this but uh I think this is the Glenn

Greenwald filter on things that it would

be well known again this is not my own

claim the NBC and specifically kend

delanian would be

considered the voice of the CIA

basically now that's not my claim that's

that's the claim that smart people

make I wouldn't know but isn't it kind

of coincidental that something that

would mock up the story would get into

the story at just the right time now it

does

seem sort of

related but not really because if the

worry is that the shooter was in fact

radicalized

by Democrat talking

points then the last thing you want is

to not have a counternarrative it's like

well I don't know we we don't know his

motives it could have been yeah it just

could have been the Iranians got to him

so it just sort of introduces some doubt

into something that probably shouldn't

have any doubt at all if an American

takes a shot at Trump is there any doubt

that he was radicalized by the media or

social media which is also radicalized

by the proper media not

really it's not one of those questions

where you have to question his his

motive now if you say oh but was

influenced by this as well okay but

still it's because you got there there

is no scenario in which you take a shot

at Trump just because you worked out the

details on your own that came from

somewhere 20-year-olds don't have their

own

opinions I had a conversation with some

young people the other day uh who is not

too far from that age of the 20y old who

said that all of their friends

uh are starting to hate Biden because

Biden is uh too pro

Israel and I said to him do your friends

know that Trump is considered like the

biggest friend of Israel ever and they

looked at me and said what oh yeah so

all all your friends who have decided

that they don't like Biden because of

Israel they don't

know that Israel and Trump are the

closest of any couple that have ever

been and they said oh well actually to

be fair nobody my age knows

anything that that was the honest answer

I got back nobody my age knows anything

so then I tossed down a few I said well

were you aware of

this um no I said were you aware of

this I've never heard of that before

were you aware of

this nope never heard that so that's

what a 20-year-old knows what a

20-year-old knows is just nothing and

nobody suggests that this was the the

best informed 20-year-old nobody thinks

that now I I see MK Ultra all over the

place I I don't believe that the CIA can

hypnotize somebody to be a killer so I

speaking as a

hypnotist I don't think that's the thing

you could find somebody who's already

you know ready to be pushed over the

edge so you could maybe tip somebody

over the edge you can't take somebody

who wasn't thinking about it and turn

them into an

assassin the no hypnosis can do that now

I mean the exception would be if you

completely control them um you know and

they saw no other people for three years

and you you just brainwashed them every

day in a secret room you could do that

that actually would work but you can't

just sort of talk to somebody in the

real world send them some messages turn

them into an assassin they they would

have to be right on the edge of tipping

anyway and then maybe you could do it

but it'd be a hard I I don't think the

CIA just hypnotized the guy to go kill

the

president my skill set says that's not

really a thing not

really but having this uh Iranian thing

in here makes everything uh a little uh

more uncertain and why is it that

hearing so little

about the uh let me tell you what I

would expect to see here's the dog not

barking are you ready dog not

barking the 20-year-old had classmates

all right now he's out High School of

course but he had people who knew him in

high school now apparently he was

bullied and he wasn't popular but has

anybody talked to his classmates and

said they say he had no social media is

that true his classmate to know if he

had social

media where where's that you know now

you don't necessarily want to put them

on camera because they'd be well they'd

be 22 so that'd be fine so if you had

some 20-year-old people who went to

school with them and you say can you

tell me that this is the only

20-year-old than he would have been 18

who has no social media just ask the

people who know him they know for sure

for sure they know if he had social

media % they know now I can I can

understand why the people doing the

investigation maybe don't want to tell

you anything yet because I you know it's

an ongoing investigation but the news

the news knows where he went to school

the news knows his family the news could

easily find his friends and why isn't

the news telling us if he had social

media because they could they

could you think they couldn't figure

that out you think there's no way an

investigative Journal could find

somebody who went to school with you

just have to find one person you went to

school with did this guy of social media

of course he

did or or oddly he did not

right so that it's kind of missing it's

kind of conspicuously

missing anyway there's a a big headline

news today um this is unusual I mean

it's it's what it's the reason it made

news you I've told you before that if a

dog bites a man that's the old saying

that's not news because that could

happen but if a man bit a dog well that

could be news you know that's the old

saying so here's one of those it's I

mean I know you didn't expect this so

that's why it's

news uh representative Adam Schiff told

the truth at a private

meeting and made headline

news anyway next story oh you're

probably wondering what he said well

that's not the fun part what he said was

just the truth that you already

knew the story is that Adam Schiff told

the

truth that's literally the

story I'm not making that up the story

is that he told the

truth the truth was that he uh thinks

that the Democrats will lose everything

if Biden stays in the

job now don't you believe that that is

the truth it's the truth that it's

probably true because you know you're

talking probab

probabilistically it's probably true um

and I probably believe he believes it so

there was nothing new in the idea that

the Democrats are panicked about losing

everything so there was no news quality

in the fact that there was this one

person who believes what everybody else

believ

believes would you agree it's not news

that there's somebody who believes what

everybody else

believes what's news is he told the

truth just think about that that's

exactly what made it a headline he told

the truth that is how that that is how

amazing that

is and he did it on closed doors so

apparently Biden is very sharp behind

closed doors and behind closed doors

sometimes Adam Schiff tells the truth

so here's my

advice you should uh stay away from

sloped roofs and close

doors

y all

right I posted a message today asking

who has the best debunk on the January

6th Insurrection hoax because it appears

that the media is retreated to that hoax

so that's the their strongest remaining

hoax because the fine people folks got

debunked um you know Trump is rising in

every other way he's he's unifying

people so they're sort of running out of

hoaxes and their their best play is now

the January 6 one so I posted and it's

my pinned post if you want to grab it by

the way you should if you think you're

going to get in this conversation you

should literally screen grab or copy my

post it's the pinned one this morning

and I'll read it to you but I think this

is the strongest

argument that January 6 was not an

Insurrection all right it goes like this

several points number one uh if somebody

says it was an Insurrection here would

be your response explain to me how

trespassing in one building leads to

Conquering the United

States so that that's the kill

shot but then they're going to say if

they know enough you know first of all

they probably give up just on that point

alone but if they know a little bit more

they'd say whoa whoa whoa Scott hold on

it wasn't just about the protesting no

there was also this fake electoral

situation so I mean that was the real

that was the real C

attempt to which uh I say explain how

the alternate or you call them fake

electors could have led to the

Conquering of the United States can you

conquer a country with paperwork

did you feel that can you can you

conquer a country with

paperwork because the normal way that

would have gone would have been oh I

challenge this to the Supreme Court and

then the Supreme Court looks at it and

goes ah get rid of get rid of these fake

electors and then that would be it just

like everything else it it would be

absolutely routine

for the courts to reject this and then

everybody goes their own way just like

everything

else but but what was the way in which

it could have

worked can can you imagine the situation

it's like uh you know Pence is ready to

certify the election and then some says

wait wait wait wait we've got

paperwork and then Pence does whatever

he does but later do you imagine that

the Democrats would get together later

and they'd say wow we were pretty sure

we won this thing fair and square

but I didn't see that they would have

paperwork they have paperwork people

they have

paperwork and then they say we we better

just give them the country and then one

of the Democrats would say well couldn't

we just do some fake paperwork and take

it back and the Democrats would be

like what's your name you're a genius

and he'd say

Bob my name is Bob I don't know if that

would be his name but let's say this I

just kind of came up with it Bob that's

that's that's just

brilliant they try to take over the

country with paperwork but does anybody

have paper anybody you have paper bring

some paper over here and bring a pen

quick we're going to take this country

back we

resolve that the country

comes back to us and by the way um does

anybody want to be a senator as long as

I'm doing some

paperwork well we'll call you an

alternate Senator but that's probably

good enough to take over the country

alternate senator who wants to be the

alternate president oh we have one of

those um alternate cabinet members

anybody finally we have

paperwork we will take over this country

with our

paperwork seriously people how was

anybody going to take over the

country with trespassing in one building

and some

paperwork but then but then hold on

Scott hold on Scott it's like you don't

even watch the

news I think I got rid of my my Dale

impression

Dale will be making a comeback if you

don't know dale dale is the uh the

Democrat who looks a lot like me except

he has a

goatee and he says crazy

things and he looks like this well Scott

if it's not an Insurrection how do you

explain all the cops that were

killed there were no cops

killed I've got horses

well maybe you should Google them never

mind I think Google probably erased it

but how do you explain the lectr got

moved what's your point the lectern the

Lecter it got

moved and just complete that point about

the electron and therefore the

Insurrection almost

succeeded because the electron got moved

there was also graffiti there was

graffiti so they were trying to conquer

the country with

paperwork but also graffiti you didn't

see it it was bad it was bad graffiti it

was weaponized

graffiti well so I just imagine it goes

like

that all right if you if you don't like

those two so those are the two points

you can't conquer a country by

by

trespassing and you can't conquer a

country with paperwork if that would

work I think somebody would have tried

it already I would have tried it myself

frankly I think I would have made a run

at Conquering the country if I could do

it with fake

paperwork all right and then here's my

my favorite one though is so one of the

things we know from the um

Communications of the day is that Don Jr

was trying to stop the protests and you

know get the president to say hey stand

down and everything so we know very

clearly that Don Jr was not in on any

plot to take over the country and so I

ask you

this do you believe that Trump planned

to take over the country and word never

got to Don

Jr because you think at the very least

somebody would have said hey Don Jr you

better protect all of your children'

because if your father takes over the

country they're in a lot of trouble and

so is your old family and so are you so

you might want to beef up your security

because you know we're going to take

over the country I feel like I feel like

that would have been mentioned it would

have been mentioned to Don Jr like how

dumb do you have to be to think that Don

Jr wouldn't be in on the plot I mean if

the plot were real of course he would of

course he would

anyway um then here's my other point

have you ever met a republican who would

be okay with Trump or anyone else

becoming a

dictator that's the opposite of being a

republican it's right in the name well

it's not right in the name but the the

whole point of being a republican is you

like the

Constitution there's no such thing as a

republican who also kind of wants a

dictator as long as the dictator is a

good one and on their side that's not a

thing there there are zero Republicans

who would have been over okay with some

kind of a coup zero I I've never even

heard it privately I've never heard

anybody whisper about it I've never

heard anybody say you know it wasn't a

coup but honestly if it had been I would

have been Allin no there there's no

Republican find me one Republican who

would have ever had that a point of view

it's not a thing now let's compare the

the Insurrection narrative to what I

call the more rational

explanation here's the rational

explanation that you never see on the

the fake news so if it wasn't an

Insurrection Scott what was

it if it wasn't an Insurrection what was

it what was it Scott what was it well

maybe it was exactly what they said it

was maybe if you simply asked all the

people you believed were involved what

is it you were trying to

accomplish maybe do that maybe just ask

them hey what was in your mind what were

you trying to

do don't you think that matters there

were thousands of people there why not

just ask them why were you there what

were you trying to accomplish I've asked

them so on behalf of the news that

didn't do his job let me tell you what

they would say

they would

say we thought the election looked

sketchy and we wanted a little timeout

to check to see if this problem was what

we thought it was which was the election

was stolen so we were trying to protect

the election we were trying to protect

the outcome and we're trying to protect

the country protect the Republic and

make sure that all of us all Americans

got the result that they thought they

voted for

but what about those fake electors Scott

what about the fake electors well why

don't we ask them what they intended to

do what they intended to do if you ask

them is to uh preserve their legal

challenge now did they do it right A lot

of people would say

no but does anybody doubt the

intent does anybody have any question

about the

intention no the intention was to

preserve their legal right now they

thought that could lead to Trump staying

in office but that would require of

course that somebody looked into the

election and found some problem with it

which never

happened all right so if you don't like

debunking that let's talk about

debunking climate change which looks

like it's going to fall any moment um

Steve Malloy who's been debunking

climate stuff forever uh here's what he

says now I'm going to say I don't know

if his facts are the same as the

official facts so you have to watch out

if everybody's using the same sources of

data and I don't know the answer to that

but here's what he says that for the

last nine years uh the temperature has

on average gone

down

um and you therefore you would have to

believe that over that time 450 billion

tons of

CO2 got into the air between 2015 and

2023 and it didn't do what it was

predicted to

do and then on top of that so so that's

the first claim so the first claim is

that the temperatures didn't go up but

the CO2 CO2 went up massively and if

you're only talking about one year or

two years you'd say okay we we didn't

claim every single year was going to be

a straight line up just the average

would but it would be pretty hard to

argue that over an eight or ninee

period that you didn't see any impact of

climate change none at the period when

it was the most CO2 not only in the air

but the most added to the air and in

that entire

time

um in that entire

time that uh I was just looking at a

reframe that somebody had is pretty good

um so in that entire time nothing went

up now remember the claim is that the

temperatures do not show warming over

that period I'm pretty sure the climate

change people would say it did so they

might be looking at different data I

don't there's I have some questions

there uh but then there's also a tonga

volcano that uh erupted in 2022 which

some say this is in Zero Hedge that uh

accounted for basically all of the extra

warmth

so you didn't debunk anything Brian snik

died oh there's some is there somebody

here who doesn't know uh that Brian

snck you know that's a fake story

right there's somebody yelling in all

caps you didn't debunk anything Brian

snik died no you unfortunately you got

some fake news

there so he just wants to say it over

and over again yeah no you got fake news

done that check your news you'll find

out you've been you've been

hoaxed uh meanwhile John Deere has

released a statement saying they're uh

backing off on their Dei policies and

they're going to commit to just helping

their customers now so I think they're

going to get rid of some of their Dei

stuff and stop focusing on pronouns and

stuff like that and that would be big

win for Robbie

Starbuck who was the person who who

originally noticed and started uh

started advocating that they changed

their ways and got enough public

attention on it that they actually

backed off now some say maybe they'll

just change the names of things and keep

going but honestly they look pretty

serious about

it right they look pretty

serious all right right um there's a

study that said uh 2third of children's

calories come from Ultra processed foods

so no surprise that kids are not healthy

two-thirds of their calories come from

processed foods now you probably saw the

leaked uh audio and video of RFK Jr

talking to Trump and they were talking

quite in a friendly way and Trump seemed

to be

indicating um

oh somebody saying if the riot didn't

happen the policeman wouldn't have died

okay well that's just a whole different

claim yeah so that that's a stupid claim

so stop being

stupid I I I have a a comment here is

just stupid so stop being stupid

okay yeah just stop being stupid I

there's nothing else to say about that

just don't be stupid anymore in public

be be stupid in private

that'd be

better anyway if RFK Jr did have any

interest in working with Trump um I

would love to see him working on this uh

big issue which is our food supply and

our

vaccine

process uh need to be relooked at and uh

it sounded like Trump was sort of

hinting in that direction that maybe he

would have a role and of course he's

running for running against Trump so

he's not going to say yes to anything

like that but I think Trump made it

clear that he could work with RFK junr

if if it was the right right fit which

would be Unity that would be

unity and uh here's a study you probably

didn't know about this but new study

says that uh orgasms can help women with

stress well who knew that but it's more

than

that um other Studies have also shown

that orgasms can help you with pain

relief they can help you with reduce

migraines they can boost your

immunity it can unblock your

nose uh it's good for your heart

health and uh it also boost your

Feelgood hormones like your oxytocin and

your dopamine and stuff like that now

I don't know if you've ever heard me say

this before

but I could have saved them a lot of

money yeah you didn't really need to

check that uh Scott we're we're thinking

of doing this study to find out if

orgasms make people feel

better I'm going to say yes oh thank you

wow you just saved us

$200,000 ah you're welcome is there

anything else I can do for you well

we're also wondering if if it reduced

your stress especially for

women

yes oh wow you just saved us another

$200,000 we I swear we were going to

study that but you knew the answer all

log I did I did I I knew that one how

about

uh it'll boost your

immunity yes it

will all right here's my serious answer

I swear I'm not making this

up

probably 40 years ago I

discovered that no matter how badly I

felt or what kind of sickness or illness

or pain I had I could kind of make it

all go

away and I said to myself wait a minute

this can't be a coincidence that when

you get in that certain mode that all

your problems go away like you I don't I

don't have a mental problem but I also

didn't have physical problems like it

would make the flu go away I mean not go

away but it wouldn't hurt at least while

you were in that mode and here was my

hypothesis I developed literally 40

years

ago that your mating

Instinct uh is so strong that it will

erase your other problems

so in other words your body is made to

reproduce so you put it in a mating

Instinct mode even if you're all by

yourself if you're in your mating

Instinct mode and your body is

registering mating then it goes to its

highest health situation in other words

it it puts you in the best situation to

complete the task because if you wanted

to mate but you had a stomach ache well

maybe you'd not do it

if you wanted to mate but you had a

migraine well you probably wouldn't be

in the mood if you wanted to mate but

you I don't know you you felt uh some

pain you probably wouldn't do it so I

had noticed that being in that orgasmic

you know mindset uh makes all your pain

go

away and I had always

hypothesized that there must be an

obvious and logical evolutionary reason

which is you're better at reproducing if

your body is all working right and so

that the moment you have an opportunity

to be an a mating moment even if you're

by yourself that your body just says all

right we're going to fix everything your

immune system is boosted your pain goes

away your migraine's gone you got a

little more energy how about a little

oxytocin would you like some dopamine

because you need the dopamine to act you

know that's the thing that actually

makes you do a thing

so no it was not difficult to understand

that this was going to be good for

people now that ladies and gentlemen

concludes my prepared marks and uh

thanks for

joining if you're on the xor rumble or

um YouTube platforms make sure you pick

book God's debris the complete works

that bullet didn't get Trump and only

his ear this book will be another way to

look at that and you won't see it until

you're done with it but once it all
