The stock market. What would you be doing today? It's not looking that good. Well, I'm sure it'll pick up. It'll pick up.

We're going to do a show that will delight you in ways that you didn't even know you could be delighted. Yeah, wait for that.

Let's get our comments up from the locals, people who are special in every way. Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, for lots of good reasons.

And if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny shiny human brains, all you need for that is a coffee mug or a glass, a tumbler, a chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug or 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 hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. Happens now.

Oh my goodness, I'm quivering, quivering with excitement.

Did you know that you could buy only the hard copy version of Win Bigly? Because Amazon is in charge of the Kindle and the soft cover. This one comes from a third party, but you can only buy the hardcover of the new second edition. It's the second edition of Win Bigly. It's got some minor updates, similar to the first version with a few updates that you might like.

But do you know what you do when Amazon says we're not going to publish your book and we're not going to give you a reason? Nothing. So apparently Amazon can just decide that this book won't be published in two of its forms, even though one of them they're publishing now.

See if you can understand this. They've accepted the hardcover, and you can buy it right now. The soft cover and the Kindle are rejected, although they're identical. Same title, same content, everything. But one of them is accepted and the others are rejected. And there is no way to find out why or to fix it. There's no mechanism. There's no way to reach anybody. And you just get automated responses that say we rejected it if you try to follow up digitally.

Now here's the question. Is that political? Do you think it's a coincidence that one of the books that would give you the best impression of Trump, even though the book is about persuasion, it's not about politics per se, do you think it's a coincidence that that's not allowed to be published and that there's no explanation? Remember the hardcover is published on the same platform, so it's not the content. And if it were something technical, it would be great if they told us, but I don't know what it would be. So we have big question marks on that.

All right. I was going to have a guest this morning, but there's a technical level of complexity involved that I couldn't solve in time for the show. So I think I'll do that separately. We'll do a separate feed at some point real soon anyway.

Flood update. Some people are saying that FEMA is failing. You know, I don't think you can ever tell if FEMA is doing a good job or a bad job during the event, because it would be quite normal that if you were one of the people in the actual flood disaster zone, whatever FEMA did wouldn't feel like enough. So I'm not going to defend FEMA. That's not my job. But I would say that we're not going to really know if they performed until the end.

We do know there's a bunch of stuff that's not getting done. We know that there's lots of services that are not completed and people are stranded and there's all kinds of problems. But that doesn't mean that FEMA is failing necessarily or in some comprehensive way.

The things we worry about are allegedly some of the equipment that we could have used to get the electricity working in those places has already been donated to Ukraine to get their electrical grid working. So if that's true, and I can't confirm that's true, that would be a big deal.

We also hear that maybe FEMA is out of money because they gave a lot of money to the migrant processes, which are not really supposed to be their primary duty. If that's true, and I can't confirm it's true, that would be a big deal. But I can't really see the US government running out of money just for one thing when in fact we have no money for anything. How do you run out of money when there's no money in existence in the first place? You can't run out of something you don't have. So what we have is credit. I don't know why we have it. I mean we shouldn't, but we do.

So Brian Kemp said he was outraged. So governor of Georgia, he had to call the White House after only 11 of the 90 counties hit were included in the FEMA disaster declaration. Now if that's true, and of course all these stories you haven't heard the other side. You know, maybe FEMA says something like, well we didn't declare them but we still do all the work so nothing really is different. So if you haven't heard the other side, you just don't know.

Yeah, so it seems unlikely that they just gave their money all to illegal immigrants or legal immigrants. So keep an open mind about that. But it doesn't look good. If you're asking me does it look good, I'd say no. It looks like there's some FEMA problems. But I would give them a little bit of slack until we know what's what. It's still the fog of war in that situation. But it does seem pretty bad.

US job claims have risen a little bit more than estimated, and hiring fell to 3.3% in August, matching the lowest level since 2013 unless you include COVID. So employment looks sort of just tepid. Not great, not terrible. No real story there. It's just not good.

But I wonder if we're already seeing the effects of people assuming that robots are going to be doing more than the employees do. Do you think anybody is saying I better stop hiring because I know I'm going to have to do a lot of firing because I'm going to replace people with AI and robots?

There I just saw an estimate. There's somebody who knows a lot about AI who thinks that only 5% of jobs could ever be replaced by AI.

Paperback and Kindle are there. Oh, so somebody saying that maybe Amazon has approved it since this morning. Well that would be explained by me going public and torching them on it. I was just beginning to torch them. So I'll check on that and we'll see. But I'm getting a report in the comments that the Kindle version and the soft cover might be approved. I just don't know why. All right, so we'll keep an eye on that.

So anyway, the expert thinks that only 5% of jobs might ever be replaced with AI based on the current kinds of AI. If we get some better kind of AI in the future, then more jobs can be replaced. But I've got a real question. I'm not so sure robots are going to work. Are you?

You know, if only 5% of jobs can be replaced by AI, does it become more jobs as soon as you add the robot body to it? Because then the body can lift things and move things in the real world. Or does it stay 5%? Because here's my thing. I spend a lot of time with ChatGPT AI and it's improving. You know, it's improving at an impressive rate. But it's nowhere near something I would trust in a robot body.

And is there something I don't know about what's going on? Is there a whole different AI that's for robots? Because if I had to depend on the reliability of ChatGPT to put in a robot that could lift me up and throw me across the room, I don't know if I'd want my robot to have that brain in there. If it's bigger than me, I think the biggest robot I would allow in my home would be maybe five feet tall. I don't want any robot that could beat me in a fair fight. Like I want to think, oh it's only five feet tall. I can push it over and then outrun it. Because they still walk like Joe Biden for some reason. Nobody can fix that. Thirty years of freaking robots in movies and they still can't walk fast. Nobody can make a robot that can walk fast. I don't get that. Seems like that would be the easiest thing to fix.

Well here's my take on politics in case you're wondering. Would you like to hear my take on politics?

Have you noticed that the things that Democrats are afraid of and the things that Republicans are afraid of are very different? Now you're going to say to yourself, duh, yes, that's the whole point of politics. One group is afraid of certain issues. The other is afraid of the other issues. And you tend to work on things you're most afraid of. Sometimes we work on things that are like investments in the future. But mostly politics is about what's bothering you the most, what scares you the most. Then you put all your resources in that direction so you won't be scared. So you build up militaries and stuff like that.

But have you noticed there's a qualitative difference between what Democrats and Republicans are afraid of that goes beyond policy? You would expect them to be afraid of different things just because they have different political views. But here are some things that Democrats are afraid of. They're afraid of Trump. They're afraid of Trump's chaos and his personality and all the things he'll do. And he'll be stealing your democracy, they say. It could be the end of democracy. So the number one thing the Democrats are afraid of is Trump stealing their democracy.

They're worried about white supremacy and the militias up in the mountains and all the white supremacy that's in everything. Oh, so Amazon separated the hardcover from the other two entities so that if you look at one you won't necessarily find the other two. Perfect. It's always something.

All right. So Democrats afraid of Trump. They're afraid of all the white supremacy that they can't find any of it in the military. They're afraid of climate change and they're afraid of Russia.

What do all those things have in common? Trump stealing your democracy, white supremacy and the militias up in the hills, climate change and Russia. What do they all have in common? Can you see the common element? None of them are real. They're literally things that if you had not been told you should be afraid of them, you would never be afraid of them.

There is really zero chance that Trump is going to steal your democracy in the context of the Democrats already stealing your democracy. Clearly the elections have become just a cheaters contest. Let's be honest. Our election system is a cheaters contest. I don't know where all the cheating is, but you see election interference in everything that happens everywhere from both sides in different ways. So it's a cheating contest.

And to imagine that Trump is the one that steals your democracy that was probably been gone since 1963, literally like literally no joke, it's not likely we have a democracy. We have something like the impression of a democracy that's enough of an illusion to keep the country together. But I'm pretty sure we don't have a lot to do with who gets power and what happens in the biggest decisions.

So somehow the Democrats have managed to convince, or the press and the propagandists have managed to convince something like half the country that the biggest things they should be afraid of are all things that are good for the people in power. Let's see, getting rid of Trump, well that'd be good for the people in power because they want to be in charge. Saying the white supremacy is the problem, well that would be good for the people in power because it keeps Trump out of office. What about climate change? Well that would be good for the people in power because it means that a trillion dollars will be heading their direction and for all the services and the technologies and the companies that are pro-Democrat. So that would be good for them. What about Russia is the biggest fear? Oh, the military-industrial complex can make lots more money if Russia is our enemy than if we found a way to get along with them.

So Democrats are living in a completely fake fear world.

Now here are some things that I would consider real things to be afraid of. Now I'm not trying to make you afraid, but I want you to contrast the reality of these versus the complete fictional fear of what the Democrats are living under.

So these would be things that Republicans would be concerned with. Government censorship of what they call disinformation, which is really the end of the First Amendment and the end of any kind of freedom. That's what Republicans are worried about. Is that real? It's completely real. I mean it's documented in so many ways you can't, you know, I can't even mention them all. But from the Twitter files on, we've seen that the government has colluded with the media and platforms to censor the truth, not just misinformation, censor the truth. And probably know they're doing it. So should you be afraid of the loss of free speech? Well depends if you think you ever had it.

What about the fact that our food supply is poison? That bothers me a lot. That's like, I don't know, it'd be hard to come up with a bigger problem than that, poisoning you with your food supply. But that's a big issue, especially with RFK Jr. part of the pirate ship.

I'm worried about DEI. I think DEI is destroying the country. It's just destroying the fabric of the country which was merit-based and now it isn't. A non-merit based system is guaranteed to fail and I'm really worried about that. And that's very real. And we're seeing the mass incompetence problem everywhere from the Secret Service to you name it. It's everywhere.

I'm worried about the debt. I have no idea how to solve that. No idea how to solve it. And it's terminal by the way. If we don't solve it we're all dead. And I don't know how to solve it and nobody has an idea. So that's a problem.

How about nuclear war? Well I don't think it's an imminent problem but it's one that I worry about.

How about the supply chain breaking down? That's a really big problem, especially if Iran gets into a fighting war more directly with Israel or the United States. They've already threatened to turn off the oil and maybe block the Strait of Hormuz. Or we think they would. I don't know if they've threatened that. So I worry about the supply chain.

I worry about the next pandemic that may be coming along. I worry about the population decline, the birth rate problem in the United States. I worry about that.

I worry about energy shortage that's driven by having too many robots and too much AI and self-driving cars. And then we don't have enough energy to keep the lights on. I worry about that a lot.

How about foreign countries hacking our infrastructure and being able to turn off our lights and our water anytime they want? I worry about that. I'm pretty sure that's real. According to the FBI it looks like China has already hacked into everything and they can just turn us off when they want. That's a problem.

And of course I worry about the Deep State controlling the world, the country.

So I feel like those are pretty well documented, easily defended, obvious real fears.

Here's what I put zero fear into: Trump stealing my democracy, white supremacy, militias that nobody can find, climate change, and Russia wanting to attack us unless we attack them. I mean if we keep going after Russia enough then it becomes a problem. But I don't think it's a problem if we're just waiting around.

All right. I'm getting a confirmation that's still just the hardcover that's available on Amazon. So just think of that. So a bunch of you went to Amazon to check my claim and you came back with different stories about what is available and what's not. You can't even tell if you can buy my book. Just think about that. A number of you went to check just to see if my book is available for sale and you can't tell. You can't tell. Some of you say it is and some of you say it definitely isn't. The hardcover definitely is available. Wow.

Well Doug Emhoff is in trouble, but I don't think any Democrats will care or hear about it. Allegedly in 2020, in 2012 he slapped his girlfriend for flirting at some party where they were all drunk. She allegedly hit him back. No file, no charges were filed. Some say allegedly he paid $80,000 to make the story go away. I don't know if that's confirmed. So the Daily Mail says they have three sources I guess now.

If you look at the way the media is handling it so far, the biggest part of the media is only kind of ignoring it. So I don't think Democrats will even hear it. Or if they do they'll think it must be a nothing from the past.

But Chris Cuomo, NewsNation, he did do a little video piece in which he said that if this had been Trump who had done these things or anyone close to him it would just be the only news. To which I say that sounds about right. Yeah, yeah. So we're going to get the completely different treatment because it's him.

Now I love the fact that MSNBC in particular was trying to turn Walz and Doug Emhoff into the new model of masculinity. And then you find that the new model of masculinity slapped around a girlfriend, got the, I think it was the nanny, the same girlfriend I think it's the same person, right? Got her pregnant. Yeah. So there's your new model of masculinity. That didn't work out the way anybody hoped.

Bill Melugin is talking about the northern border. So apparently just in three states on our northern border, so this is not the entire northern border, just three states, Vermont, New York and New Hampshire. And keep in mind that yeah, just three states. And currently according to the border patrol they got 19,000 illegal immigrants in 2024 so far. That's higher than the previous 17 years combined. And they came from 97 different countries.

Now how many got through if 19,000 got caught but only in three states that border? So we got a whole bunch of states that border Canada. That's a lot. How many terrorists do you think are inside the country?

If I were Iran, let me tell you how I would build a defense against the United States. And I don't think I'm giving them ideas because this is sort of obvious. If our borders are open you would sneak as many operatives as you could. And any one motivated operative with a little bit of weaponry that doesn't seem too hard to get could do horrible damage, horrible damage. And again I'm not going to give many ideas.

Oh you, I think my Win Bigly, the first edition you're still seeing in various forms. It's the second edition that's not available in all its forms anyway.

So I would expect that if we have war with Iran, suddenly the lights are going to go out in the United States. So yeah. And I suppose it depends how bad things get. But if we took out, or Israel let's say Israel took out the oil refineries in Iran which basically eliminated their way to essentially eliminate their economy, they wouldn't be able to survive. I think they would turn the lights off in the United States. I think you literally wouldn't have electricity. And I think that they have the ability to do that either through physical sabotage or hacking.

And here's the thing. I wonder if something that big did happen to us in the United States, there's no restraint that we would use to make sure it didn't happen again. So that would end Iran as an independent nation in my opinion. If they turned off the lights in the United States and it you know we couldn't get them back on and it caused a hundred thousand people to die just from the lack of electricity, which is possible by the way, you could have a hundred thousand people die if that happened. Even we judged, well we were a little bit responsible for you maybe poking the bear some people would say and others would say no we're just responding to them poking us all the time. We'll never get to the bottom of that.

But if something that radical happened on the homeland I think the US military and Israel would essentially just colonize Iran and just take over the government there at whatever cost. I think at any cost we would do it at that point. So that's probably the only thing that's keeping Iran or China or anybody else from turning off our lights. Because it does seem we're super vulnerable. The only thing that we have is not that we're protecting our facilities or even our borders. The only thing we have is that if somebody does it we're going to find out who you are and we're going to make sure that everybody who's ever close to you is dead. So that's the only thing protecting us right now.

Yeah there's a bunch of counterfeit versions of all my books. So for all of my books as soon as I get published there'll be all these counterfeits. So hold this in your mind. Just hold this truth. So on Amazon I can only get my hardcover published because they give me technical problems that they can't solve and there's no mechanism to solve it for the soft cover and the Kindle. But how many counterfeit versions of my book did they approve? And you can buy them today. A lot. People just massively print counterfeit versions of my book and they won't take them down. But the real one they won't put up. And I'm worried that the reason I can't publish the real one is because the counterfeits have already taken the space. Meaning that the system probably says oh that book already exists but it would be the counterfeits. So I worry that that's the problem. Or it's just political. It'd be a big coincidence if it isn't.

Well do you know how California had that new law that said that disinformation was going to be illegal, especially political disinformation, and you could go to jail for a political parody? And it turns out that a federal court has tossed that out. It's unconstitutional. So the California ban on election-related quote misinformation looks like that's just going away. So thank goodness there are still some courts that operate. We don't have much going on for us but fortunately.

Well here's some good news. October is so lit when it comes to all the election stuff. The things that it looks like maybe people waited to tell you. But here's one. Did you know, well you did know that the Republican, the RNC where Lara Trump and who is she working with? She's got a co-chairman person, Michael Watley. So Lara Trump and Michael Watley. In case you're wondering if they've been busy, you're wondering hey is that orange getting anything done? Listen to this.

So apparently the RNC has recruited and trained hundreds of thousands of volunteers, thousands of attorneys, and have already held thousands of trainings ahead of the election. So that the total number of volunteers is 220,000 and they've had over 2,000 trainings and they've got 5,000 attorneys recruited. 5,000 attorneys, 220,000 volunteers, and they've had 2,000 training sessions. Does that sound like they're working hard? Sure does. Sure does.

Now it's impossible to know from a distance you know how much of this is needed and whether you got enough. But these are big numbers. So remember I told you months ago I said that the wild card in all of this, the election, might be Lara Trump's level of aggressiveness. In terms of how aggressively are you going to make sure that cheating doesn't happen this time? This is aggressive. Now Michael Watley gets of course credit as well. They're a team. But I have nothing to complain about here. Do you feel the same? Does this feel like this is a serious no joke we're really going to try to fix this problem? Don't know if it's enough. Don't know if they'll be observing in a way that can make a difference. But wow this is the best news I think I've heard in a long time.

My perfect scenario goes like this. Democrats massively cheat. Republicans catch the cheat in time and it's enough to redo how we do elections. In other words we'll learn that our elections have too many holes because we'll catch too many problems. I don't think it's practical that we're going to have an actual election result unless Trump wins by landslide and the Democrats decide uncharacteristically they decide it was a clean election.

So I think what you're going to see is that Democrats will be questioning the election if they lose even by a landslide and they'll say Russia interfered. They'll do all the normal things and they'll try to put Trump in jail. So we're just getting going and we're only the third of October.

Oh look it's another coincidence. Oh look at all the coincidences happening in October right before the election. Here's a coincidence. According to Scott Presler who's signing people up to vote in Pennsylvania, doing an amazing job, this Saturday Trump is going to come back to Pennsylvania to that Butler farm show place, the same place he almost was assassinated. So imagine how much press he's going to get and how much Pennsylvanians will be paying attention when Trump goes right back to the very place where somebody took a shot at him. Right, that naturally will be just complete press saturation. There's no way they can ignore it. And it'll make you think if you're a Republican. It's really going to make you think to vote. It's really going to make you think to register if you haven't. Because Pennsylvania is the key thing.

So not only is Pennsylvania the key state but by coincidence it's a place where he got shot at and almost killed, shot actually. And here's a coincidence you'll never guess. Turns out that the Pennsylvania voter registration website is going to be unavailable for maintenance that evening from 6:00 p.m., which is one hour after the rally, to midnight. So the exact period of time where people would be thinking about Pennsylvania, thinking about voting, thinking about registering, that's when the system won't be available. The one time that Trump goes back to Pennsylvania to that same place, the one time he's going to get the most press and the most attention, they're going to do a little maintenance on the system so you can't register then. Coincidence? It could be. It could be that the maintenance was scheduled long before the Butler thing. But don't you think it looks like election interference? If you wanted to make it not election interference, you know, let's say they scheduled it a year ago so there's nothing weird about it. Once you knew that Trump was going to be in Butler shouldn't you change it? Shouldn't you, couldn't you reschedule it? Couldn't you do it maybe after midnight? I don't know. I got questions. I'm not willing to say this was done specifically to depress Trump voters from registering. I'm going to say that if you knew it was going to be a problem you should reschedule. So if they don't, well then that looks a little slippery.

Meanwhile according to the Gateway Pundit you know we've got this big question mark about overseas votes. These would be Americans who are allowed to vote, they just happen to be overseas. So there's a big program by the Democrats to make sure that those overseas voters are definitely voting as many as possible. It's called the Uniformed Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act. And so the Democrats are going to really, they put money into it and they're going to go look and make sure that all those people voted.

Do you see any possible problems with that? No, what's wrong with making sure people vote? How could that possibly be a problem? You are so suspicious. No they're just they just want to make sure everybody has a right to vote and that's available and nothing stops people from expressing their democratic preferences. So stop thinking there's some like plot or it's obvious that there's something sketchy going on. There's no evidence of that whatsoever. No evidence at all.

Let's see. They're trying to win approximately, they say there are 9 million Americans that are overseas and could vote, some percentage of them. So they're working on that 9 million. The only problem is there are only 2.8 million of them that are of voting age and can vote and live overseas. So they're going to, they're working to get 9 million votes out of the 2.8 million. Wait a minute. Okay which is a bigger number? Nine is bigger than 2.8 right? So there are only 2.8 that are of the right age and also are overseas but they're trying to get 9 million votes out of the 2.8 million. Okay I take back everything I said. You should really really worry about that.

Now this is coming from the Gateway Pundit and various sources. And do I know that there's something sketchy here? Well this is one of those cases where you'd want to hear the counterargument. So the accusation is that they're very clearly signaling that they're going to get way more votes from overseas than there are human beings who are eligible to vote overseas. So it does feel like the setup is being broadcast to us. You can see it coming from a mile away unless they have an explanation. And maybe they have different data about who's overseas and what they expect to do. Maybe. But do you trust that? Does this look innocent to you? It doesn't look innocent to me.

Now one would hope, one would hope that the Lara Trump, Michael Watley RNC people have some way to get extra visibility into that process. I don't know what that would look like but there's got to be some way to see the votes opened up or something. We'll see. Maybe if that's completely unauditable we got a problem.

Meanwhile Judge Chuck Kan has unsealed Jack Smith's new indictment. And this is the one that got on all the lawfare stuff. I'm the worst person to listen to so I'll tell you what I think I know. The only thing you can get out of my analysis of the lawfare stuff is that somebody who watches the news doesn't even understand it. Like I do this literally every day. I check all the news stories and my brain just turns off when I look at the legal stuff. Partly because it's always just so boring and partly because you know if you're not a lawyer you can't really understand which parts are important and which parts are just formalities and which parts will be overturned so you don't have to worry about them. You know it's hard for me to dig in. So look for the actual lawyers, you know the Jonathan Turleys and the Dershes. You know look for the people who've done this to give you a better look.

But here's what I think is true from a non-lawyer stupid perspective. It looks to me like it's another, oh it's a coincidence. What a coincidence that this dropped just before the election and we won't have time to know that. Let's say the accusations turn out to be false and let's say there's a court process and let's say that Trump is completely exonerated. Well you're not going to know that by election day because by coincidence this drops just in time to poison the well and make people think, whoa there's with all of this action, 165 pages, there must be something there.

Now my understanding is that this was rewritten because of the presidential immunity decision at the Supreme Court which said that if Trump did something under the official banner of his office he had some immunity. So apparently it's being rewritten to emphasize the things he did which they're defining as outside the scope of his official office. For example they talk about his tweeting in his personal account as opposed to his presidential account because using the personal one would be a sign that he's doing it knowing he's doing it outside of the presidential umbrella. Does any of that matter? I don't know. You'd have to talk to a lawyer, not me.

But you've got this totally biased prosecutor. You've got this totally left-leaning judge. And they just dropped this thing that cannot be defended. There's just no defense against it because it's complicated and people just say well there's something there. With all that smoke there must be fire. But of course the play is create lots of smoke so that people think there's a fire. So during the election season it is not true that with all that smoke there must be fire. That's just not true during an election season. It's just true that it could be. But in the non-election context a whole bunch of smoke probably tells you there's a fire. And the election season doesn't mean anything. It just means somebody's making an accusation.

So I tried to figure out just exactly what was in that thing. And as far as I can tell it's mostly somebody called it hearsay. Meaning that it's a bunch of people who were acting in ways that maybe they thought were compatible with what Trump wanted. But there doesn't seem to be anything that Trump said or did directly that would be illegal as far as I know. Now this is too preliminary to know that that was a true statement. So I'm waiting for the news to surface. You know what's the thing we need to know? Can you give me the quote that says Trump did something? Haven't seen it. I've seen a bunch of quotes that other people thought they were doing other things.

But here's my big question about the whole situation. Everything that Trump did on January 6, and this is all about the January 6 business, everything he did in order for it to look like it was against the law would require you to know that he knew the election was clean. That's the trick they're playing on the country and Democrats are falling for it. Democrats actually believe you can measure the temperature of the earth accurately and they believe that you can know if an American election was clean or not. I don't know how dumb you'd have to be to believe either of those two things but super dumb.

There is no way to know if an American election was clean. You can know if somebody had a specific complaint and there was time and standing to pursue it. You could know how the court ruled. But there's no way to know that there is or is not something hidden in the system that was changing the result. How do you know what you don't know? You don't. Hey look there's a giant pile of hay. Somebody said there might be a needle in it. How do you judge there's no needle in it? Well I don't see a needle. No court has decided there's a needle. You can't prove there's a needle. But then I say but you also can't prove there's not a needle because you're not even looking for it. Well why would I look for something that is unspecific? Well that's my point. How would you know if there was something in the system that was corrupting it if you didn't look? Well nobody's complained. There's no court case. I know this had nothing to do with my point. How would you know that some state actor maybe with some insiders hadn't done something? How would you know there weren't some mail carriers who got together and said let's just throw away all the mail from the red neighborhoods? How would you know? There is no way to know those things unless somebody came forward as a whistleblower or just somebody got lucky. There is no way to know. And our systems are designed to make sure you can't know.

Now if there's only one thing you ever learn you should learn that the system, the way a system is designed, will tell you the intentions of the designers. But not on day one. On day one it could just be poorly designed and then you go oh okay they didn't mean for the machine to not work. That was just a mistake. If it's 10 years later and the machine is still doing the wrong thing you can no longer say that's an accident. At some point, and we're well beyond that point, at some point it's the design intention because you would fix it if it were not the design intention, right?

So that's why you can't tell in the first place. But is obvious. It is now obvious, very obvious, completely obvious. And by the way you will never see anybody debunk this point. There's your dog not barking. You'll see people say there was no proof of fraud. True. There's no proof of fraud that a court accepted. Oh let me put it that way. There's no court-accepted proof of a 2020 fraud. Doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean you didn't have any fraud. Yeah our systems are designed to make sure you can't tell and that's really obvious.

So what else is going on? So my main point there is that I've got this question about the latest Jack Smith indictment stuff. How much of that depends on Trump's inner thoughts? As in if Trump knew, because they like to say he knew the election, that he lost the election. Don't let anybody say that in front of you. If somebody says he knew he lost the election just get all over him and say how could you know the unknowable? How do you know? You couldn't even describe how the election is put together. And then you go into why do we have voting machines at all.

So I think the entire January 6 hoax, and I'm going to call it a hoax, the hoax is that we know what Trump knows or that he could know whether the election was clean or not. To me it seems obvious that he really believed it was rigged which would make 100% of his actions make sense. Because if he thought it was rigged and he was trying to fix that problem that would be doing what the president should do. But on top of that even if he did it as a private citizen it's what a private citizen should do. A private citizen should try to fix a problem with the system if you had the power as a citizen. You weren't elected to anything and you saw that there was some big thing that you could fix. What's your responsibility as a citizen? Fix it. Fix it. It's not your job but it's definitely your responsibility as it would be for all of us.

Like the flood, the flood is you know sort of the government's job and FEMA the one supposed to be doing it. But you've seen a bunch of people say what the hell this isn't getting done. So they're taking their own helicopters and raising their own money, you know trying to get their own internet connections in there and stuff. So citizens do have a responsibility to fix things that are broken.

So whether Trump was operating under the banner of his job or independent of his job that didn't change the fact that it was his job as a citizen. Not a paid job, not an elected job, but as a citizen absolutely he's supposed to go fix that if he's the one in a position where it makes most sense for him to do it. If I were in the position where I could fix that I would feel that was my job. An unpaid job but it would certainly be my patriotic duty to try to fix it.

So yes don't let anybody make you think past the sale. The sale they have to make is how do you know that Trump could somehow know the unknowable that it was a clean election when it looked like it wasn't. That's not knowable. Don't let anybody make you think past that.

Well there's more Diddy updates. I keep seeing videos of Jaguar Wright who is a musician herself and she claims to have all kinds of inside information about Diddy's parties etc. She said she used to be a sex worker and so she sees the world from the darkest corners. And she was also part of Diddy's world so she's seen the entire field she claims.

And here are the things that she's saying. That there were in fact Satanic rituals. Again this is just a claim. I would put her credibility as a coin flip. I'm not sure that I lean toward her being accurate on everything but it does sound accurate. I have to admit it has a ring of truth to it. I just don't know if all of it's true so I'd take it with a big grain of salt, this particular source. But it's worth listening to.

So she says that young girls were stuffed into suitcases and later discarded in alleyways. You'd think there somebody would ask a follow-up question on that. Oh hold on, hold on. Young girls put in what suitcases? And then you take the suitcase to the alley. Are they alive in the suitcase? And why'd you put them in the suitcase? And if they were dead why'd you put them in an alley? So that's the sort of accusation where I say hm. Satanic rituals probably not. Girls stuffed into suitcases, if I had heard it happen once I might have said well that's terrible but it could happen once. But if you're saying it's sort of a routine thing to stuff girls in suitcases and drop them in alleys that's a little less credible sounding.

She implicated Jay-Z saying he has hundreds of victims. There's not yet any solid evidence of that. And then she goes this far. She says there's some sinister web that ties together Diddy, Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein. Okay I'm out. I'm out. Too on the nose. Is that a little bit convenient? Just a little bit too perfect. Oh it cleverly ties together all these loose ends. Now it could. I'm not ruling it out. I mean stranger things have happened. But it's a little bit too exactly like what people are expecting you know in their conspiracy theories.

And she says that Diddy was a product of music mogul Clive Davis and Lucian Grainge, never heard of him, and taught him everything he knows. Well interestingly last night I was watching a Whitney Houston documentary that involves Clive Davis discovering her. And according to the documentary Clive Davis is just the nicest guy and man can he help your career because he's a nice guy. Just a nice nice guy. So do I believe that version of him? No. Because honestly almost nobody is that nice. If he's as nice as he was in the movie he's really nice. That would be one seriously nice guy. And maybe he is. Maybe he is. So I'm not willing to go so far as to throw any of these characters under the bus. I think we can throw Diddy under the bus with some confidence. But all the other names I'm really uncomfortable assuming that there's actual evidence of crimes. There might be. There might be. I mean there's 120 alleged victims according to one attorney. So how big this could get we don't know. But don't assume that some big celebrity name you heard is necessarily going to be guilty.

Well Israel is supposedly going to target in the next day or so maybe Iranian nuclear facilities, maybe oil facilities. And Israel did just today I guess strike a Russian air base in Syria. Now the reason is that some weapons for Hezbollah were allegedly in an airplane that landed there. So they were really going, they weren't going after Russians they were going after the Hezbollah supply line. But they haven't done that before. So it attacked the warehouses. It was trying not to kill too many people apparently. And Russian air defenses tried to intercept the Israeli missiles. So it was a missile attack and they failed.

So does that tell you anything? Does that tell you that Israeli missiles are better than Russian air defenses? Or does it maybe tell you that Russia has to use all their good stuff in Ukraine? Is it possible that the Syrian military assets are just all the crap stuff left over that didn't go to Ukraine? Maybe. Don't know. But certainly Israel has demonstrated that they can reach anything. And they have demonstrated by basically not having any damage from 200 rockets or 200 was it intercontinental missiles that got sent at them from Iran with no damage really to speak of. I mean nothing major.

So we're in that weird area where everybody's posturing and they've got to make sure that they look strong and they made a defense but they didn't go too far because you don't want a bigger war. So everybody's trying to balance on the head of a needle here.

So what would you think? Are they going to attack? Is Israel going to attack the nuclear facilities which would slow down Iran's ability to have a breakout nuclear thing with nuclear weapons? Or would they go after something that's more directly related to their economic well-being? So if they go after the oil terminals Iran has said they'll go after all the oil terminals in the area so the entire world will be out of oil. Would they do that? Don't know. There's a real good chance they wouldn't because if they took out all the oil facilities in the Middle East that would make every country in the Middle East say does anybody want a little help destroying Iran? We'll send some people. I mean I can't imagine that the other neighboring countries would put up with that. You know is Saudi Arabia going to put up with that? I mean I think that's World War I now. I think World War III would still be limited to the Middle East mostly except for terrorist acts in other countries. But I feel like Israel probably won't go after the oil refineries because that would be too much of a shock to the whole world.

But if they go after the nuclear facilities and that's all they go after and let's say they succeed in slowing it down then they get a definite benefit and it might not spread. It might be the least likely to spread to a larger field. And they could say that they responded. So I guess I would bet on that as the first most likely thing they would do is take out the nuclear thing. Because if they take out the nuclear threat, the threat that Iran can make a nuclear weapon in two weeks, which by the way is the estimate that they're about that, if they wanted to they could have a nuclear weapon in two weeks. Do you know what I say about that? If Iran could have a nuclear weapon in two weeks, which by the way I'm not sure that that's true, but if they could have it in two weeks they already have one. How the hell would we know if they had a nuclear weapon already if the experts were saying they could make one in two weeks if they wanted to? Are you telling me they could make one in two weeks if they wanted to and they didn't make one? They've had two weeks. In what world does a country not secretly make an actual nuclear weapon? That would be insane. They should make it as fast as possible and tell everybody they got one or at least suggest it so that you don't know if they can attack with a nuke or not.

Now I suppose Israel's intelligence would probably be good enough that they would know if they had a breakout nuclear weapon. But if I were Iran I hate to say it but I would have made the nuclear weapon already. So there's that.

Then there's the thought that if Iran got into a general war like a big wider war where really the mainland of Iran was under attack that they don't have enough manufacturing ability to replace their weapons after a fairly intense fight. So if they use most of their weapons fighting they don't have a way to rebuild them fast enough to stay in the fight. And the only place they could get them would be Russia and Russia is not likely to send them a lot of weapons at the same time they're trying to use them in Ukraine. So Iran is probably not capable of a sustained war that it could win.

So these are all the variables. Now I haven't heard the news talking about a decapitation attack. And given that Israel has shown that they'll take out the leaders of Hezbollah and Hamas if they can, do you think that would really stop them from taking out the leadership of Iran? I feel like it's on the table. It seems a lot safer than taking out the oil facilities. If you take out the oil facilities it's war for sure. If you take out the leadership I don't know, maybe it's worse. I don't know how to judge that one.

But most importantly there's the BBC reports there's some science that scientists have made a huge breakthrough in analyzing the brain of a fly. Now even a fly has a super complicated brain but it's a tiny little brain and way less complicated than bigger mammals. But they think they've made this big breakthrough in sort of mapping it almost like physically building a map of how all the neurons connect to the other ones. And it's the most detailed analysis of the brain of an adult creature ever produced.

Now what they don't say is that it's the first step in understanding why Democrats vote the way they do. You got to start with the fly but then you work your way up. So it's like fly, salamander, Democrat. No I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I kid the Democrats. Now they're like everybody else except they're afraid of things that don't exist.

Well Meta has these new smart glasses that you can wear with some VR capabilities. And some people combined that with an app called PimEyes that can do facial recognition. And it'll allow you to walk through a crowd and the personal information of everybody you look at will pop up on your glasses. So you'll know the name and address and social media history and they say phone numbers but I don't know where they get that. So you can actually see the phone number of somebody as you walk past them in a crowd, total strangers.

Now is that going to stay illegal? Probably. Probably. But imagine going to a party wearing your nerd glasses and you could tell who's single. Suppose that's the only thing you knew. You could tell who's single just by looking at them. Suppose you could tell their job just by looking at them. Suppose you could tell how much money they have just by looking at them with your glasses. That's all happening. That's all happening.

So my little life where most of the time I'm anonymous is about to end really quickly. You know if I leave my small town here and I don't run into somebody who watches the show every day I'm kind of anonymous. Like if I go to an airport I'm not usually recognized. Sometimes not usually. Now all it would take is a few people with those glasses on and they're going to ID me right away. So does that change my life? I don't know. It might change my life radically. Yours too.

Apparently the doctor who prescribed the drugs for Matthew Perry that he died of an overdose of has pled guilty according to the BBC. So there were two doctors involved. One had some facility that had ketamine and the other was his doctor. So I guess his doctor was working with the source doctor. So none of it was illegal in terms of the doctoring but I think the amount that they got and the way it was distributed, the way it was ingested, there are questions there I guess.

But here's the part that was just really scary. So according to the indictment the two doctors involved they were exchanging texts trying to figure out how to get this drug to Matthew Perry. And they're trying to figure out how much to charge him. And one of the doctors said and I quote, "I wonder how much this moron will pay." Those are the doctors. The doctors, the people who were responsible for keeping Matthew Perry alive were wondering how to rob him and calling him a moron.

If I can make any advice to the medical professionals who are watching now, I wouldn't ever call any of your customers morons because you never know when that's going to get discovered. I feel like all of our messages are discoverable and at some point they'll all be available publicly everywhere. That seems inevitable. But maybe don't do that. Yeah don't be like that.

Meanwhile according to the Independent the US Army is rolling in a robot dog with a gun on it. And we've talked about this before. We got robot dogs with flamethrowers. We've got every kind of drone. And now we have robot dogs with guns fitted at the top. Well you know I want one of those. If anybody's thinking about a good Christmas present to send me at the top of the list is a robot dog to defend my house.

Now here's where we're going with this. These are actually being deployed in war zones now. So Ukraine, the Ukrainian military is going to be seeing robot dogs with guns and flamethrowers coming over the hedge. That is not going to be a fun battle I'll tell you. So we've now entered the age in which humans are going to fight robots. That's here. Because already the Ukrainians are using their robots to breach the front lines and shoot the Russians. So we now have humans fighting robots. It's real. It's now the question is this. How long will it be before both sides are just all robots?

Now if a major power fights a smaller power it's going to be the major power's robots against the humans of the smaller power and the humans won't have a chance. You know assuming that the superpower has lots of money to make lots of robots humans won't have a chance. But what happens if two superpowers that can make unlimited robots get in a war with each other? Would it ever make sense for the US and China to be in a war in which we put humans on the front line if we could send unlimited drones and unlimited robot dogs? Wouldn't you just have the robots fight the robots? It's just going to be BattleBots right?

And then what happens when one of the robot sides wins? Does the other side say whoa whoa whoa we're not going to put our humans against your robots and you've already beat the robots. We surrender. It's going to be like that Star Trek where they would do a simulation of the war so they didn't have to have the actual war. And then whoever lost the simulation of the war had to volunteer to be basically suicided you know in some humane way. I think we're actually heading to that place like actually literally. Where after the robot war is over the losers have to accept the penalty whatever that penalty is. Could be slavery anyway.

So you might all want your own robot dog to guard your house. And also the Second Amendment is going to get a little dicey. If the Second Amendment says you can own a gun what's it going to say about your robot dog with a machine gun mounted on it? Or let's say it's a single-shot sort of a home defense weapon but it's mounted on a robot. Do we have laws that will handle robots with guns? And if the robot becomes sentient is it your fault if the robot uses the gun to shoot somebody because it would be the robot's decision? I don't know.

So that's what I got for you today. I'm going to take a little time to talk to the locals people on their own. And once we get that going anyway so we're going to talk to locals. If you're on X or YouTube or Rumble thanks for joining. It'll take about 20 seconds to be private with the locals people. So that's when we do our interstitial.

the stock market what would you be doing today it's not looking that good well I'm sure it'll pick up it'll pick up we're going to do a show that will Delight you in ways that you didn't even know you could be delighted yeah wait for that let's get our comments up from the locals people who are special in every way good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called coffee with Scott Adams for lots of good reasons and if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny shiny human brains all you need for that is a cuper Mugger glass Tacker cheler Stein a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure the dopamine h of the day the thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous sipping happens now go oh my goodness I'm quivering quivering with excitement did you know that you could buy only the hard copy version of wind bigley because Amazon is in charge of the Kindle and the soft cover this one comes from a third party but uh you can only buy the hard cover of the new second edition it's the second edition of wh bigley it's uh got some minor updates similar to the first version with a few updates that you might like but do you know what you do when Amazon says we're not going to publish your book and we're not going to give you a reason nothing so apparently Amazon can just decide that this book won't be published in in two of its forms even though one of them they're publishing now see if you can understand this they've AC they've accepted the hard cover and you can buy it right now the soft cover and the Kindle are rejected although they're identical to this same title same content everything but one of them is accepted and the others are rejected and there is no way to find out why or to fix it there's no mechanism there's no way to reach anybody and you just get automated responses and say we rejected it if you try to follow up digitally now here's the question is that political do you think it's a coincidence that one of the books that would give you the best impression of trump uh even though the book is about persuasion it's not about politics per se do you think it's a coincidence that that's not allowed to be published and that there's no explanation remember the hard cover is published on the same platform so it's not the content and if it were something technical it would be great if they told us but I don't know what it would be so we have big question marks on that all right um I was going to have a guest this morning but uh there's a technical level of complexity involved that I couldn't solve in time for the show so I think I'll do that separately we'll do a separate feed at some point real soon anyway uh flood update some people are saying that FEMA is failing you know I don't think you can ever tell if FEMA is doing a good job or a bad job during the event because it would be quite normal that if you were one of the people in you know the actual flood disaster Zone whatever FEMA did wouldn't feel like enough so I'm not going to defend FEMA that's not my job but I would say that we're not going to really know if they performed until the end um we do know there's a bunch of stuff that's not getting done we know that there's lots of services that are not completed and people are stranded and there's all kinds of problems but that doesn't mean the FEMA is failing necessarily or in some comprehensive way the the things we worry about are allegedly some of the equipment that we could have use to get the electricity working in those places has already been donated to Ukraine to get their electrical grid working so if that's true and I can't confirm that's true that would be a big deal uh we also hear that maybe females had of money because they gave a lot of money to the migrant um processes which are not really supposed to be their primary duty if that's true and I can't confirm it's true that would be a big deal but I can't really see the US government running out of money just for one thing when in fact we have no money for anything how do you run out of money when there's no money in existence in the first place you can't run out of something you don't have so what we have is credit I don't know why we have it I mean we shouldn't but we do so um Brian Kemp said he was outraged so governor of Georgia he he had to call the white house uh after only 11 of the 90 counties hit were included in the the FEMA disaster declaration now if that's true and and of course all these stories you haven't heard the other side you know maybe FEMA says something like well we didn't declare them but we still do all the work so nothing really is different so if if you haven't heard the other side you just don't know yeah so it seems unlikely that they just gave their money all to you know illegal immigrants or legal immigrants so keep an open mind about that uh but it doesn't look good if if you're asking me does it look good I'd say no it it looks like there's some female problems but I would give them a little bit of little bit of a slack until we know what's what it's still the fog of war in that situation but it does seem pretty pretty bad um us job claims have risen a little bit more than estimated and hiring fell to 3.3% in August matching the lowest level since uh 2013 unless you include Co so employment looks sort of just tepid not great not terrible uh no no real story there it's just not good but I wonder if we're already seeing the effects of people assuming that robots are going to be doing more than more than the employees do you think anybody is saying I better stop hiring because I know I'm going to have to do a lot of firing because I'm going to replace people with AI and robots there I just saw an estimate there's somebody who knows a lot about AI who thinks that only 5% of jobs could ever be replaced by AI paperback and Kindle are there oh so somebody saying that maybe Amazon has approved it since this morning well that would be explained by me going public and torching them on a I was just beginning to torch them so I'll check on that and we'll we'll see but I'm getting a report in the comments that the uh the Kindle version and the soft govern might be approved I just don't know why all right so we'll keep an eye on that um so anyway the expert thinks that only 5% of jobs might be ever replaced with AI based on the current kinds of AI if we get some better kind of AI in the future then more jobs can be replaced but I've got a real question I'm not so sure robots are going to work are you you know if if only 5% of jobs can be re replaced by AI does it become more jobs as soon as you add the robot body to it because then the body can lift things and move things in the real world or does it stay 5% because here's my thing I I spend a lot of time with h chat GPT Ai and it's improving you know it's improving at you an impressive rate but it's nowhere near something I would trust in a robot body and is there something I don't know about what's going on is there a whole different AI That's for robots because if I had to depend on the reliability of chat GPT to put in a robot that could lift me up and throw me across the room I don't know if I'd want my robot to have that brain in there you if if it's bigger than me I think the biggest robot I would allow in my home would be maybe 5et tall I don't want any robot that could beat me in a fair fight like I I want to think oh it's only 5 feet tall I can like push it over and then outrun it because they still they still walk like Joe Biden for some reason nobody can fix that 30 years of freaking robots in movies and they still can't walk fast nobody can make a robot that can walk fast I don't get that seems like that would be the easiest thing to fix well here's my take on politics in case you're wondering would you like to hear my take on politics have you noticed that the things that Democrats are afraid of and the things that Republicans are afraid of are very different now you're going to say to yourself du yes that's the whole point of politics one group is afraid of certain issues the others afraid of the other issues and you you tend to work on things you're most afraid of sometimes we work on things that are like investments in the future but mostly politics is about what's bothering you the most what scares you the most then you put all your resources in that direction so you won't be scared so you build up militaries and stuff like that but have you noticed there's a qualitative difference between what uh Democrats and Republicans are afraid of that goes beyond policy you would expect them to be afraid of different things just because they have different political views but here are some things that Democrats are afraid of they're afraid of trump they're afraid of Trump's chaos and his personality and all the things you'll do and you'll you'll be stealing your democ you'll be stealing your democracy they say it could be the end of democracy so the number one thing the Democrats are afraid of is Trump um stealing their democracy they're worried about white supremacy and the the militias up in the mountains and all the all the white supremacy that's in everything oh so Amazon separated the hard cover from the other two entities so that if you look at one you won't necessarily find the other two perfect it's always something all right so uh Democrats afraid of trump they're afraid of all the white supremacy that's uh they can't find any any of it in the military they're afraid of climate change and they're afraid of Russia what do all those things have in common Trump stealing your democracy white supremacy and the militias up in the hill uh climate change and Russia what do they all have in common can you see the the common element none of them are real they're literally things that if you if you had not been told you should be afraid of them you would never be afraid of them there is really zero chance that Trump is going to steal your democracy in the context of the Democrats already stealing your democracy clearly the elections have become just a cheaters contest let's be honest our election system is a cheaters contest I don't know where all the cheating is but you see election interference in every thing that happens everywhere from you know both sides in different ways so it's a cheating contest and to imagine that Trump is the one that steals your democracy that was probably been gone since 1963 literally like literally no joke it's not likely we have a democracy we have something like the impression of a democracy that's enough of an illusion to keep the country together but I'm pretty sure we don't have a lot to do with who gets power and what happens and in the biggest decisions so somehow the Democrats have managed to convince uh or the the press and the propagandists have managed to convince something like half the country that the biggest things they should be afraid of are all things that are good for the people in power let's see getting rid of trump well that' be good for the people in power because they want to be in charge uh saying the white supremacy is the problem well that would be good for the people in power because it keeps Trump out of office uh what about climate change well that would be good for the people in power because it means that a trillion dollar will be heading their Direction and for the all the the services and the Technologies and the companies that are pro- Democrat so that would be good for them what about Russia's the biggest fear oh the military-industrial complex can make lots more money if Russia is our enemy than if we found a way to get along with them so Democrats are living in a completely fake fear world now here are some things that I would consider real things to be afraid of now I'm not trying to make you afraid but I wanted you to want you to contrast the reality of these versus the complete fictional fear of what the Democrats are living under so these would be things that Republicans would be concerned with government censorship of what they call disinformation which is really the end of the first amendment and the end of any kind of Freedom that's what Republicans are worried about is that real it's completely real I mean it's documented in so many ways you can't you know I can't even mention them all but from the Twitter files on we've seen that the government has colluded with um the media and platforms to censor and censor the truth not just misin information censor the truth and probably know they're doing it so should you be afraid of the loss of free speech well depends if you think you ever had it what about the fact that our food supply is poison that bothers me a lot that's like I don't know it'd be hard to come up with a bigger problem than that poisoning you with your food supply um but that's a big issue especially with RFK Jr part of the pirate ship uh I'm worried about Dei I think Dei is destroying the country it's just destroying the fabric of the country which was merit-based and now it isn't a non-merit based system is guaranteed to fail and I'm really worried about that and that's very real and we're seeing the mass incompetence problem everywhere from the Secret Service to you name it it's everywhere I'm worried about the debt I have no idea how to solve that no idea how to solve it and it's terminal by the way if we don't solve it we're all dead um and I don't know how to solve it and nobody has an idea so that's a problem how about uh nuclear war well I don't think it's an imminent problem but it's one that I worry about um how about the supply chain breaking down that's a really big problem especially if a ran gets into a fighting War more directly with Israel or the United States they've already threatened to turn off the oil and and maybe block the straight of Horus or we think they would I don't know if they've threatened that so I worry about the supply chain I worry about the next pandemic that um may be coming along I worry about the population decline the birth rate problem in the United States I worry about that I worry about energy shortage that's driven by having too many robots and too much Ai and self-driving cars and then we don't have enough energy to keep the lights on I worry about that a lot how about uh how about foreign countries hacking our infrastructure and being able to turn off our lights in our water anytime they want I worry about that I'm pretty sure that's real according to uh the FBI it looks like China is already hacked into everything and they can just turn us off when they want that's a problem um and of course I worry about the Deep State controlling the world uh the country so I feel like those are pretty well documented easily defended obvious real fears here's what I put zero fear into Trump stealing my democracy white supremacy milias that nobody can find climate change and Russia wanting to attack US unless we attack them I mean if if we keep going after Russia enough then it becomes a problem but I don't think it's a problem if we're just waiting around all right I'm getting a confirmation that's still just hard cover that's available on Amazon so just think of that so A bunch of you went to Amazon to check my claim and you came back with different stories about what is available and what's not you can't even tell if you can buy my book just think about that the a number of you went to check just to see if my book is available for sale and you can't tell you can't tell some of you say it is and some of you say it definitely isn't the hard cover is definitely is is available wow well dog mhof is in trouble but I don't think any Democrats will care or hear about it allegedly uh in 2020 in 2012 he slapped his girlfriend for flirting at some party where they were all drunk she allegedly hit him back uh no file no charges were filed some say allegedly he paid $80,000 to make the story go away I don't know if that's confirmed um so the Daily Mail says they have three sources I guess now if you look at the way the media is handling it so far the the biggest part of the media the biggest part the media is only uh kind of ignoring it so I don't think Democrats will even hear it or if they do they'll think it must be a nothing from the past um but Chris Cuomo news Nation he did do a little video piece in which he said that if this had been Trump who had done these things or anyone close to him it would just be the only news to which I say that sounds about right yeah yeah so we're going to get the completely different treatment because it's him now um I love the fact that uh that MSNBC in particular was trying to turn wals and Doug mhof into the new model of masculinity and then you find that the new model of mascul the new model of masculinity slapped around a girlfriend uh got the I think it's was The Nanny the same girlfriend I think it's the same person right got her pregnant yeah so there's your new model of masculinity that didn't work out the way anybody hoped bill maluan is talking about the northern border so apparently just in three states on our northern border so this is this is not the entire northern border just three states uh Vermont New York and New Hampshire and keep in mind that yeah just three states and uh currently according to the border patrol they got 19,000 illegal immigrants in 2024 so far that's higher than the previous 17 years combined and they came from 97 different countries now how many got through if 19,000 got caught but only in three states that border so we got a whole bunch of states that border Canada that's a lot how many terrorists do you think are inside the country if I were Iran let me tell you how I would build a defense against the United States and I don't think I'm giving them ideas because this is sort of obvious if our borders are open you would sneak as many operatives as you could and any one motivated operative with a little bit of Weaponry that doesn't seem too hard to get could do horrible damage horrible damage and again I'm not going to give many ideas um oh you I think my wind bigley the first edition you're still seeing in various forms it's the second edition that's not available in all its forms anyway so I would expect that if we have war with Iran suddenly the lights are going to go out in the United States so yeah and I suppose it depends how bad things get but if we took out or Israel let's say Israel took out the oil refineries in Iran which basically eliminated their way to essentially eliminate their economy they wouldn't be able to survive I think they would turn the lights off in the United States I think you literally wouldn't have electricity and I think that they have the ability to do that either through physical sabotage or hacking and here's the thing I wonder if something that big did happen to us in the United States there's there's no restraint that we would use to make sure it didn't happen again so that would end Iran as an independent nation in my opinion if they turned off the lights in the United States and it you know we couldn't get them back on and it caused a 100,000 people to die just from the lack of electricity which is possible by the way you could have 100,000 people die if that happened even we judged well we were a little bit responsible for you maybe poking the bear some people would say and other would others would say no we're just responding to them poking us all the time we' never get to the bottom of that but if something that radical happened on the Homeland I think the US Military and Israel would essentially just colonize Iran and just take over the government there what at whatever cost I think at any cost we would do it at that point point so that's probably the only thing that's keeping Iran or China or anybody else from turning off our lights because it does seem we're super vulnerable the only thing that we have is not that we're protecting our facilities or even our borders the only thing we have is that if somebody does it we're going to find out who you are and we're going to make sure that everybody who's ever close to you is dead so that's the only protecting us right now yeah there's a bunch of counterfeit um versions of all my books so for all of my books as soon as I get published there'll be all these counterfeits so hold this in your mind Ju Just Just hold this truth so on Amazon I can only get my hard cover published because they give me technical problems that they can't solve and there's no mechanism to solve it for the soft cover and the Kindle but how many counterfeit versions of my book did they approve and you can buy them today a lot people just massively print counterfeit versions of my book and they won't take them down but the real one they won't put up and I'm worried that the reason I can't publish the real one is because the counterfeits have already taken the space meaning that they the the system probably says oh that book already exists but it would be the counterfeits so I worry that that's the problem or it's just political it'd be a big coincidence if it isn't well do you know how California had that new law that said that disinformation was going to be illegal especially political disinformation and you could go to jail for a political parody and it turns out that a uh federal court has uh tossed that out it's unconstitutional so the California ban on Election related quote misinformation looks like that's just going away so thank goodness there are still some courts that operate we don't have much going on going for us but fortunately well here's some good news um uh October is so lit when it comes to all the election stuff the the things that it looks like maybe people waited to tell you but here's one did you know well you did know that the Republican the RNC where uh uh Lara Trump and uh who is she working with she's got a she has a co-chairman person Michael Watley so Laura Trump and Michael Watley um in case you're wondering if they've been busy you're wondering hey is that orang getting anything done listen to this so apparently the RNC has recruited and trained hundreds of thousands of volunteers thousands of attorneys and I have already held thousands of trainings ahead of the election so that the total number of volunteers is 220,000 and they've had over over 2,000 trainings and they've got 5,000 attorneys recruited 5,000 attorneys 220,000 volunteers and they've had 2,000 training sessions does that sound like they're working hard sure does sure does now it's impossible to know from a distance you know how much of this is needed and whether you got enough but these are big numbers so remember I told you months ago I said that the the wild card and all of this the election might be Lara Trump's level of aggressiveness in terms of how aggressively are you going to make sure that cheating doesn't happen this time this is aggressive now Michael Watley gets of course credit as well that's a they they're their team but I have nothing to complain about here do you feel the same does this feel like this is a serious no joke we're really going to try to fix this problem don't know if it's enough don't know if they'll be observing in a way that can make a difference but wow this is the best news I think I've heard in a long time my perfect scenario goes like this Democrats massively cheat Republicans catch the cheat in time and it's enough to redo How We Do elections in other words we'll learn that our elections have too many holes cuz we we'll catch too many problems I don't think it's practical that we're going to have an actual election result unless unless Trump wins by Landslide and the Democrats decide uncharacteristically they decide it was a clean election so I think what you're going to see is that Dem rats will be questioning the election if they lose even by a landslide and they'll say Russia interfered they'll do all the normal things and they'll try to put Trump in jail so we're just getting going and we're only the third of October um oh look it's another coincidence oh look at all the coincidences happening in October right before the election here's a coincidence according to uh Scott presler who's a signing people up to vote in in uh Pennsylvania doing an amazing job um this Saturday Trump is going to come back to Pennsylvania to that Butler Farm Show Place the same place he uh almost was assassinated so imagine how much press he's going to get and how much pennsylvanians will be paying attention when Trump goes right back to the very place where somebody took a shot at him right that that naturally will be just complete press saturation there's no way they can ignore it and it'll make you think if you're a republican it's really going to make you think to vote it's really going to make you think to register if you haven't because Pennsylvania is the key thing so not only is Pennsylvania the key state but by coincidence it's a it's a place where he got shot at and almost killed shot actually and here's a coincidence you you'll never guess turns out that the Pennsylvania voter registration website is going to be unavailable for maintenance that evening from 6:00 pm.

which is 1 hour after the rally to midnight so the exact period of time where people would be thinking about Pennsylvania thinking about voting thinking about registering that's when the system won't be available the one time that Trump goes back to Pennsylvania to that same place the one time he's going to get the most press and the most attention they're going to do a little maintenance on the system so you can't register then coincidence it could be it could be that the maintenance was scheduled long before the the baller thing but don't you think it looks like election interference if you wanted to make it not election interference you know in the let's let's say they scheduled it a year ago so there's nothing there's nothing weird about it once you knew that Trump was going to be in berler shouldn't you change it shouldn't you re couldn't you reschedule it couldn't you do it maybe after midnight I don't know I got questions I'm not I'm not willing to say this was done specifically to depress Trump voters from registering I'm going to say that if you knew it's going to be a problem you should reschedule so if they don't well then that looks a little slippery meanwhile according to the Gateway pundit you know we've got this big uh question mark about uh overseas votes these would be Americans who are allowed to vote they just happen to be overseas so there's a big program by the uh Democrats to make sure that those overseas voters are definitely voting as many as possible uh it's called the uni the uh uniformed overseas citizens absentee Voting Act and so the Democrats are going to really really uh they put money into it and they're going to go look and make sure that all those people voted do you see any possible problems with that no what what's wrong with making sure people vote how could that possibly be a problem I you are so suspicious no they're they just want to make sure everybody has a right to vote and that's available and Nothing Stops people from expressing their Democratic preferences so stop thinking there's some like plot or or it's obvious that there's something sketchy going on there's no evidence of that whatsoever no evidence at all let's see uh they're trying to win approximately they say there are 9 million Americans that are overseas and could vote some percentage of them so they're working on that 9 million the only problem is uh there are only 2.8 million of them that are of voting age and can vote and live overseas so they're going to they're working to get 9 million votes out of the 2.8 million wait a minute okay which is a bigger number nine is bigger than 2.8 right so they're only 2.8 are of the right age and also are overseas but they're trying to get 9 million votes out of the 2.8 million okay I take back everything I said uh you should really really worry about that now this is coming from the Gateway pundit and various sources and do I know that there's something sketchy here well this is one of those cases where you'd want to hear the counterargument so the the accus ation is that they're very clearly signaling that they're going to get way more votes from overseas than there are human beings who are eligible to vote overseas so it does feel like the setup is being broadcast to us you can see it coming from a mile away unless they have an explanation and maybe they have different data about who's overseas and what they expect to do maybe but do you trust that does this look innocent to you it doesn't look innocent to me now one would hope one would hope that the Lara Trump Michael wle RNC people have some way to get extra visibility into that process I don't know what that would look like but there's got to be some way to see the votes opened up or something we'll see maybe if that's completely una auditable we got a problem meanwhile uh judge Chuck Ken has unsealed Jack Smith's new uh indictment uh and this is the one that it got on all the the lawfare stuff I'm the worst person to listen to so I'll tell you what I think I know the only the only thing you can get out of my analysis of the law pair of stuff is that somebody who watches the news doesn't even understand it like I I do this literally every day I check all the news stories and my brain just turns off when I look at the legal stuff partly because it's always just so boring and partly because you you know if you're not a lawyer you can't really understand which parts are important and which parts are just formalities and which parts will be overturned so you don't have to worry about them you know it's hard for me to dig in so look for the actual lawyers you know the Jonathan tures and the dtz you know look look for the people uh who've done this uh to give you a better look but here's what I think is true from a non- lawyer stupid perspective it looks to me like it's another oh it's a coincidence what a coincidence that this dropped just before the election and we won't have time to know that let's say the uh accusations turn out to be false and let's say there's a court process and let's say that Trump is completely exonerated well you're not going to know that by election day because by coincidence this drops just in time to to Poison the Well and make people think who there's with all of this action 165 pages there must be something there now my understanding is that um this was Rewritten because of the presidential immunity decision at the Supreme Court which said that if Trump did something under the official Banner of his office he had some immunity uh so apparently it's being Rewritten to emphasize the things he did which they're defining as outside the scope of His official office for example they talk about his tweeting in his personal account as opposed to his presidential account because is using the personal one would be a sign that he's doing it knowing he's doing it and will side of the presidential you know umbrella does any of that matter I don't know you'd have to talk to a lawyer not me but um you've got this totally biased prosecutor you've got this totally left leading judge and they just dropped this thing that cannot be defended there's just no defense against it because it's complicated and people just say well there's something there with all that smoke there must be fire but of course the play is cre lots of smoke so that people think there's a fire so during the election season it is not true that with all that smoke there must be fire that's just not true during an election season it's just true that it could be but in the non-election context a whole bunch of smoke probably tells you there's a fire and the election season doesn't mean anything it just means somebody's making an accusation um so I tried to figure out just exactly what was in that thing and as far as I can tell it's mostly somebody called it hearsay meaning that it's bunch of people who were acting in ways that maybe they thought were compatible with what Trump wanted but there doesn't seem to be anything that Trump said or did directly that would be illegal as far as I know now this is too preliminary to know that that was a true statement so I'm waiting for the news to surface you know what's the thing we need to know can you give me the quote that says Trump did something haven't seen it I've seen a bunch of quotes that other people thought they were doing other things but here's my big question about the whole situation everything that Trump did on January 6 and this is this is all about the January 6 business um everything you did in order for it to look like it was against the law would require you to know that he knew the election was clean that's the trick they're playing on the country and Democrats are falling for it Democrats actually believe you can me you can measure the temperature of the earth accurately and they believe that you can know if an American election was clean or not I don't know how dumb you'd have to be to believe either of those two things but super dumb there is no way to know if an American election was clean you can know if somebody had a specific complaint and there was time and standing to pursue it you could know how the coure ruled but there's no way to know that there's is or is not something hidden in the system that was changing the result how do you know what you don't know you don't hey look there's a giant pile of hay somebody said there might be a needle in it how do you judge there's no needle in it well I don't see a needle no court has decided there's a needle you can't prove there's a needle but then I say but you also can't prove there's not a needle because you're not even looking for it well why would I look for something that is unspecific well that's my point how would you know if there was something in the system that was corrupting it if you didn't look well nobody's complained there's no court case I know this had nothing to do with my point how would you know that some State actor maybe with some insiders hadn't done something how would you know there weren't some male carriers who got together and said let's just throw away all the mail from the the red neighborhoods how would you know there is no way to know those things unless somebody came forward as a whistleblower or just somebody got lucky there is no way to know and our systems are designed to make sure you can't know now if there's only one thing you ever learn you should learn that the system the way a system is designed will tell you the intentions of the designers but not on day one on day one it could just be poorly designed and then you go oh okay they didn't mean for the machine to not work that was just a mistake if it's 10 years later and and the Machine is still doing the wrong thing you can no longer say that's an accident at some point and we're well beyond that point at some point it's the design intention because you would fix it if it were not the design intention right so that's why you can't tell in the first place but is obvious it is now obvious very obvious completely obvious and by the way you will never see anybody debunk this point there's your dog not barking you'll see people say there was no proof of fraud true there's no proof of fraud that a court accepted oh let me put it that way there's no court accepted proof of a 2020 fraud doesn't mean anything it doesn't mean you didn't have any fraud yeah your our systems are designed to make sure you can't tell and that's really obvious so um what else is going on so my main point there is that uh I've got this question about the latest um Jack Smith indictment stuff how much of that depends on Trump's inner thoughts as in if Trump knew because they like to say he knew the election that he lost the election don't let anybody say that in front of you if somebody says he knew he lost the election just get all over him and say how the could you know the unknowable how do you know you you couldn't even describe how the election is put together and then you go into why do we have voting machines at all so I think the entire January 6 hoax and I'm going to call it a hoax The hoax is that we know what Trump knows or that he could know whether the election was clean or not to me it seems obvious that he really believed it was rigged which would make 100% of his actions make sense because if he thought it was rigged and he was trying to fix that problem that would be doing what the President should do but on top of that even if he did it as a private citizen it's what a private citizen should do a private citizen should try to fix a problem with the with the system if you had the power as a citizen you weren't elected to anything and you saw that there was some big thing that you could fix what's your responsibility as a citizen fix it fix it it's not your job but it's definitely your responsibility as as it would be for all of us like the flood the the flood is you know sort of the government's job and FEMA the one supposed to be doing it but you've seen a bunch of people said what the hell this isn't getting done so they're taking their own helicopters and raising their own money you know trying to get their own uh you know internet connections in there and stuff so citizens do have a responsibility to fix things that are broken so whether Trump was operating under the banner of hisob job or independent of his job that didn't change the fact that it was his job as a citizen not a paid job not an elected job but as a citizen absolutely he he's supposed to go fix that if he's the one in a position where it makes most sense for him to do it if I were in the position where I could fix that I would feel that was my job an unpaid job but it would certainly be my patriotic duty to try to fix it so yes don't let anybody make you think past the sale the sale they have to make is how do you know that Trump could somehow know the unknowable that it was a clean election when it looked like it wasn't that's not knowable don't let anybody make you think past that well there's more Diddy updates I keep seeing videos of Jaguar Wright who is a musician herself and she claims have all kinds of inside information about diddies parties Etc she said she used to be a sex worker and so she sees the world from you know the the darkest corners and she was also part of Diddy's world so she's seen you know the entire field she claims and here are the things that she's saying um that there were in fact Satanic rituals again this is just a claim uh I would put her credibility as a coin flip I I'm not sure that I lean toward her being accurate on everything but it does sound accurate I have to admit it has that there is a ring of truth to it I just don't know if all of it's true so i' take with a big big grain of salt this particular Source uh but it's worth listening to so she says that young girls were stuffed into suitcases and later discarded in Alleyways you'd think there somebody would ask a follow-up question on that oh hold on hold on young girls put in what suitcases and then you take the suitcase to the alley wa are they alive in the suitcase and why'd you put them in the suitcase and if they were dead why'd you put them in an alley so so that's the sort of accusation where I say hm Satanic rituals probably not girls stuffed into suitcases if I had heard it happen once I might have said well that's terrible but it could happen once but if you're saying it's sort of a routine thing to stuff girls and suitcases and drop them in alleys that's a little less credible sounding um she implicated Jay-Z saying he has hundreds of victims there's not yet any uh solid evidence of that and then she goes this far she says there's some Sinister web that ties together Diddy Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein okay I'm out I'm out two on the nose is that a little bit convenient just a little bit too perfect oh it CL cleverly ties together all these loose ends now it could I'm not ruling it out I mean stranger things have happened but it's a little bit too exactly like what people are expecting you know in their conspiracy theories and uh she says that Diddy was a product of Music Mogul Clive Davis and Lucian gra never heard of him and taught him everything he knows well interestingly last night I was watching a Whitney Houston documentary that involves Clive Davis discovering her and uh according to the documentary Clive Davis is just the nicest guy and man can he help your career because he's a nice guy just a nice nice guy so do I believe that version of him no because honestly almost nobody is that nice if he's as nice as he was in the movie he's really nice that that would be one seriously nice guy and maybe he is maybe he is so I'm not willing to go so far as to throw any of these characters under the bus I think we can throw didy under the bus with some confidence but all the other names I'm really uncomfortable assuming that there's actual evidence of crimes there might be there might be I mean there's 120 alleged victims according to one attorney so how big this could get we don't know but don't assume that some big celebity name you heard is necessarily going to be guilty well Israel is uh supposedly going to Target in the next day or so uh maybe Iranian nuclear facilities maybe um oil facilities and uh Israel did just today I guess strike a Russian Air Base in Syria now the reason is that some weapons for Hezbollah were allegedly in an airplane that landed there so they were really going they weren't going after Russians they were going after the Hezbollah supply line but uh they haven't done that before so it attacked the warehouses it was trying not to kill too many people apparently and Russian air defenses tried to intercept the isra missiles so it was a missile attack and they failed so does that tell you anything does that tell you that Israeli missiles are better than Russian air defenses or does it maybe tell you that Russia has to use all their good stuff in Ukraine is it possible that the Syrian U military assets are just all the the crap stuff left over that didn't go to Ukraine maybe don't know but certainly Israel has demonstrated that they can reach anything and they have demonstrated by basically not having any damage from 200 rocket or 200 was it Inter.

Continental missiles that got sent at them from Iran with no damage really to speak of I mean nothing major so so we're in that uh that weird area where everybody's posturing and they've got to make sure that they look strong and they they made a defense but they didn't go too far because you don't want a bigger War so everybody's trying to balance on the the head of the needle here so what would you think is are they going to attack is Israel going to attack the nuclear facilities which would slow down Iran's ability to have a breakout nuclear thing uh with nuclear weapons or would they go after something that's more directly related to their economic weal being so if they go after the oil terminals Iran has said they'll go after all the oil terminals in the area so the entire world will be out of oil would they do that don't know there there's a real good chance they wouldn't because if they took out all the oil facilities in the Middle East that would make every country in the Middle East say does uh anybody want a little help destroying Iran uh we'll we'll send some people I mean I can't imagine that the other the neighboring countries would put up with that you know is Saudi Arabia going to put up with that I mean I think that's that's World War I now I think World War II would still be limited to the Middle East mostly except for terrorist acts in other countries but I feel like I feel like Israel probably won't go after the oil refineries because that would be too much for shock to the whole world but if they go after the nuclear facilities and that's all they go after and let's say they succeed in slowing it down then they get a definite benefit uh and they get a might not spread it might be the least likely to spread to a larger field and um and they could say that they responded so I guess I would bet on that as the first most likely thing they would do is take out the nuclear thing because if they take out the nuclear threat the threat that Iran can make a nuclear weapon in two weeks which by the way is the estimate that they're about that if they wanted to they could have a nuclear weapon in two weeks do you know what I say about that if Iran could have a nuclear weapon in two weeks which by the way I'm not sure that that's true but if they could have it in two weeks they already have one how how the hell would we know if they had a nuclear weapon already if the experts were saying they could make one in two weeks if they wanted to are you telling me they could make one in two weeks if they wanted to and they didn't make one they've had two weeks in what world does a country not secretly make an actual nuclear weapon that would be insane they should make it as fast as possible and tell everybody they got one or at least suggest it so that you don't know if they can attack with a nuke or not now I suppose Israel's intelligence would probably be good enough that they would know if they had a breakout nuclear weapon but uh if I were Iran I hate to say it but I would have made the nuclear weapon already so there's that uh then there's the thought that if Iran got into a general War like a big wider War where really the you know the mainland of Iran was under attack that they don't have enough uh manufacturing ability to replace their weapons after a fairly you know intense fight so if they use most of their weapons fighting they don't have a way to rebuild them fast enough to stay in the fight and the only place they could get them would be Russia and Russia is not likely to send them a lot of weapons at the same time they're trying to use them in Ukraine so Iran is probably not capable of a sustained war that it could win um so these are all the variables now I haven't heard the news talking about a decapitation attack and given that Israel has shown that they'll take out the leaders of Hezbollah and Hamas if they can um do you think that would really stop from taking up the leadership of Iran I feel like it's on the table it seems a lot safer than taking out the the oil facilities if you take out the oil facilities it's War for sure if you take out the leadership I don't know maybe it's worse I don't know how to judge that one but most importantly there's uh the BBC reports there's some science that scientists have made a a huge breakthrough in analyzing the brain of a fly now even a fly has a super complicated brain but it's a tiny little brain and way way less complicated than you know bigger mammals but they think they've made this big breakthrough and sort of mapping it almost like physically building a map of how all the neurons connect to the other ones and uh it's the most detailed analysis of the brain of an adult creature ever produced now what they don't say is that it's the first step in understanding why Democrats vote the way they do you got to start with the fly but then you work your your way up so it's like fly salamander Democrat no I'm just joking I'm just joking I kid the Democrats now they're like everybody else except they're afraid of things that don't exist well meta has these new smart glasses um that you can wear with some VR capabilities and uh some people combined that with an app called uh Pim eyes that can do facial recognition and it'll allow you to walk through a crowd and the personal information of everybody you look at will pop up on your glasses so you'll know the name and address and social media history and they say phone numbers but I don't know where they get that so you can actually see the phone number of somebody as you walk past them in a crowd total strangers now is that going to stay illegal probably probably but imagine going to a party wearing your nerd glasses and you could tell who's single suppose that's the only thing you knew you could tell who's single just by looking at him suppose you could tell their job just by looking at them suppose you could tell how much money they have just by looking at them with your glasses that's all happening that's all happening so my little life where uh most of the time I'm Anonymous it's about to end really quickly you know if I leave my my small town here and I don't run into somebody who watches the show every day I'm kind of anonymous like if I go to an airport I'm not usually recognized sometimes not usually now all it would take is a few people with those glasses on and they're going to ID me right away so does that change my life I don't know it might might change my life radically yours too um apparently the Doctor Who prescribed the drugs for Matthew Perry that he died of an overdose of has plad guilty according to the BBC so there were two doctors involved one had some facility that had ketamine uh and the other was his doctor so I guess his doctor was working with the source doctor so none of it was illegal in terms of the doctoring but I think the the amount that they got and the way it was distributed the way it was the way it was ingested there are the questions there I guess but uh here's the part that was just really scary so according to the indictment uh the the two doctors involved they were exchanging text trying to figure out how to get this drug to to Matthew Perry and uh they're trying to figure out how much to charge him and one of the doctors said and I quote I wonder how much this will pay those are the doctors the doctors the people who were responsible for keeping Matthew Perry alive were wondering how to rob him and calling him a wow if I can make any advice to the medical professionals uh who are watching now I wouldn't ever call any of your customers morons because you never know when that's going to get discovered I feel like all of our messages are discoverable and at some point they'll all be available publicly everywhere that seems inevitable but maybe don't do that yeah don't don't be like that meanwhile according to the independent the US Army is rolling in a robot dog with a gun on it and uh we've talked about this before we got robot dogs with flamethrowers we've got uh every kind of drone and now we have uh robot dogs with guns fitted at the top well you know I want one of those uh if anybody's thinking about a good Christmas pres to send me at the top of the list is a robot dog to defend my house now here's where we're going with us these These are actually being deployed in war zones now so Ukraine the Ukrainian military is going to be seeing robot dogs with guns and flamethrowers coming over the hedge r that is not going to be a fun battle I'll tell you so we've now entered the we've now entered the age in which humans are going to fight robots that's here because already the ukrainians are using their robots to you know breach the front lines and shoot the Russians so we now have humans fighting robots it's real it's now the question is this how long will it be before both sides are just all robots now if if major power fights a smaller power it's going to be the major Powers robots against the humans of the smaller power and the humans won't have a chance you know assuming that the superpower has lots of money to make lots of robots humans won't have a chance but what happens if two superpowers that can make unlimited robots get in a war with each other would it ever make sense for the US and China to be in a war in which we put humans on the front line if we could if we could send unlimited drones and unlimited robot dogs wouldn't you just have the robots fight the robots it's just going to be battlebot right and then what happens when one of the robot sides wins does the other side say whoa whoa whoa we're not going to put our humans against your robots and you've already beat the robots we surrender it's going to be like that Star Trek where they would do a simulation of the war so they didn't have to have the actual war and then whoever lost the simulation of the war had to volunteer to be basically suicided you know in some humane way I think we're actually heading to that place like actually literally where after the robot war is over the losers have to accept the penalty whatever that penalty is could be slavery anyway so you might all want your own robot dog to guard your house and uh also the Second Amendment is going to get a little dicey if the Second Amendment says you can own a gun what's it going to say about your robot dog with a machine gun mounted on it or or let's say it's a singleshot sort of a home defense weapon but it's mounted on a robot do we have laws that will handle robots with guns and uh if the robot becomes sensient is it your fault if the robot uses the gun to Sho somebody because it would be the robot's decision I don't know so that's what I got for you today I'm going to take a little time to talk to the uh locals people on their own and uh once we get that going um anyway so we going to talk to locals if you're on X or You.

Tube or Rumble thanks for joining it'll take about 20 seconds to be private with the locals people so that's when we do our interstitial e e e e e e e e e e e

the stock market what would you be doing

today it's not looking that

good well I'm sure it'll pick up it'll

pick

up we're going to do a show that will

Delight you in ways that you didn't even

know you could be

delighted yeah wait for

that let's get our comments up from the

locals people who are special in every

way

[Music]

good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of human civilization it's

called coffee with Scott Adams for lots

of good reasons and if you'd like to

take your experience up to levels that

nobody can understand with their tiny

shiny human brains all you need for that

is a cuper Mugger glass Tacker cheler

Stein a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of

any kind fill it with your favorite

liquid I like coffee and join me now for

the unparallel pleasure the dopamine h

of the day the thing that makes

everything better it's called the

simultaneous sipping happens now

go oh my goodness I'm

quivering quivering with excitement

did you know that you could buy only the

hard copy version of wind bigley because

Amazon is in charge of the Kindle and

the soft cover this one comes from a

third party but uh you can only buy the

hard cover of the new second edition

it's the second edition of wh bigley

it's uh got some minor updates similar

to the first version with a few updates

that you might like but

do you know what you do when Amazon says

we're not going to publish your book and

we're not going to give you a

reason

nothing so apparently Amazon can just

decide that this book won't be published

in in two of its forms even though one

of them they're

publishing now see if you can understand

this they've AC they've accepted the

hard cover and you can buy it right

now the soft cover and the Kindle are

rejected although they're identical to

this same title same

content everything but one of them is

accepted and the others are rejected and

there is no way to find out why or to

fix it there's no mechanism there's no

way to reach anybody and you just get

automated responses and say we rejected

it if you try to follow up

digitally now here's the question is

that political do you think it's a

coincidence that one of the books that

would give you the best impression of

trump uh even though the book is about

persuasion it's not about politics per

se do you think it's a coincidence that

that's not allowed to be published and

that there's no explanation remember the

hard cover is published on the same

platform so it's not the

content and if it were something

technical it would be great if they told

us but I don't know what it would

be so we have big question marks on that

all right um I was going to have a guest

this morning but uh there's a technical

level of complexity involved that I

couldn't solve in time for the show so I

think I'll do that separately we'll do a

separate feed at some point real soon

anyway uh flood

update some people are saying that FEMA

is failing you know I don't think you

can ever tell if FEMA is doing a good

job or a bad job during the

event because it would be quite normal

that if you were one of the people in

you know the actual flood disaster

Zone whatever FEMA did wouldn't feel

like

enough so I'm not going to defend FEMA

that's not my job but I would say that

we're not going to really know if they

performed until the end

um we do know there's a bunch of stuff

that's not getting done we know that

there's lots of services that are not

completed and people are stranded and

there's all kinds of problems but that

doesn't mean the FEMA is failing

necessarily or in some comprehensive way

the the things we worry about are

allegedly some of the equipment that we

could have use to get the electricity

working in those places has already been

donated to Ukraine to get their

electrical grid working so if that's

true and I can't confirm that's true

that would be a big deal uh we also hear

that maybe females had of money because

they gave a lot of money to the migrant

um processes which are not really

supposed to be their primary duty if

that's true and I can't confirm it's

true that would be a big deal but I

can't really see the US government

running out of money just for one thing

when in fact we have no money for

anything how do you run out of money

when there's no money in existence in

the first place you can't run out of

something you don't have so what we have

is credit I don't know why we have it I

mean we shouldn't but we

do

so um Brian Kemp said he was

outraged so governor of Georgia he he

had to call the white house uh after

only 11 of the 90 counties hit were

included in the the FEMA disaster

declaration now if that's

true and and of course all these stories

you haven't heard the other side you

know maybe FEMA says something like well

we didn't declare them but we still do

all the work so nothing really is

different so if if you haven't heard the

other side you just don't

know yeah so it seems unlikely that they

just gave their money all to you know

illegal immigrants or legal

immigrants so keep an open mind about

that uh but it doesn't look good if if

you're asking me does it look good I'd

say no it it looks like there's some

female problems but I would give them a

little bit of little bit of a slack

until we know what's what it's still the

fog of war in that situation but it does

seem pretty pretty

bad um us job claims have risen a little

bit more than estimated and hiring fell

to 3.3% in August matching the lowest

level since uh 2013 unless you include

Co so employment

looks sort of just tepid not great not

terrible uh no no real story there it's

just not

good but I wonder if we're already

seeing the effects of people assuming

that robots are going to be doing more

than more than the employees do you

think anybody is saying I better stop

hiring because I know I'm going to have

to do a lot of firing because I'm going

to replace people with AI and

robots there I just saw an estimate

there's somebody who knows a lot about

AI who thinks that only 5% of jobs could

ever be replaced by

AI paperback and Kindle are

there oh so somebody saying that maybe

Amazon has approved it since this

morning well that would be explained by

me going public and torching them on

a I was just beginning to torch

them so I'll check on that and we'll

we'll see but I'm getting a report in

the comments that the uh the Kindle

version and the soft govern might be

approved I just don't know

why all

right so we'll keep an eye on that um so

anyway the expert thinks that only 5% of

jobs might be ever replaced with AI

based on the current kinds of AI if we

get some better kind of AI in the future

then more jobs can be replaced but I've

got a real

question I'm not so sure robots are

going to

work are

you you know if if only 5% of jobs can

be re replaced by

AI does it become more jobs as soon as

you add the robot body to it because

then the body can lift things and move

things in the real world or does it stay

5% because here's my thing I I spend a

lot of time with h chat GPT Ai and it's

improving you know it's improving at you

an impressive rate but it's nowhere near

something I would trust in a robot

body and is there something I don't know

about what's going on is there a whole

different AI That's for

robots because if I had to depend on the

reliability of chat GPT to put in a

robot that could lift me up and throw me

across the room I don't know if I'd want

my robot to have that brain in there you

if if it's bigger than me I think the

biggest robot I would allow in my home

would be maybe 5et

tall I don't want any robot that could

beat me in a fair fight like I I want to

think oh it's only 5 feet tall I can

like push it over and then outrun it

because they still they still walk like

Joe

Biden for some reason nobody can fix

that 30 years of freaking robots in

movies and they still can't walk fast

nobody can make a robot that can walk

fast I don't get that seems like that

would be the easiest thing to

fix well here's my take on

politics in case you're wondering would

you like to hear my take on politics

have you noticed that the things that

Democrats are afraid of and the things

that Republicans are afraid of are very

different now you're going to say to

yourself du yes that's the whole point

of politics one group is afraid of

certain issues the others afraid of the

other issues and you you tend to work on

things you're most afraid

of sometimes we work on things that are

like investments in the future but

mostly politics is about what's

bothering you the most what scares you

the most then you put all your resources

in that direction so you won't be scared

so you build up militaries and stuff

like that but have you noticed there's a

qualitative difference between what uh

Democrats and Republicans are afraid of

that goes beyond

policy you would expect them to be

afraid of different things just because

they have different political

views but here are some things that

Democrats are afraid of they're afraid

of

trump they're afraid of Trump's chaos

and his personality and all the things

you'll do and you'll you'll be stealing

your democ you'll be stealing your

democracy they say it could be the end

of democracy so the number one thing the

Democrats are afraid of is

Trump um stealing their democracy

they're worried about white supremacy

and the the militias up in the mountains

and all the all the white supremacy

that's in

[Music]

everything oh so Amazon separated the

hard

cover from the other two entities so

that if you look at one you won't

necessarily find the other two

perfect it's always something all right

so uh Democrats afraid of trump they're

afraid of all the white supremacy that's

uh they can't find any any of it in the

military they're afraid of climate

change and they're afraid of

Russia what do all those things have in

common Trump stealing your democracy

white supremacy and the militias up in

the hill uh climate change and

Russia what do they all have in common

can you see the the common

element none of them are

real they're literally things that if

you if you had not been told you should

be afraid of them you would never be

afraid of

them there is really zero chance that

Trump is going to steal your democracy

in the context of the Democrats already

stealing your democracy clearly the

elections have become just a cheaters

contest let's be honest our election

system is a cheaters contest I don't

know where all the cheating is but you

see election interference in every

thing that happens everywhere

from you know both sides in different

ways so it's a cheating contest and to

imagine that Trump is the one that

steals your democracy that was probably

been gone since

1963 literally like literally no joke

it's not likely we have a democracy we

have something like the impression of a

democracy that's enough of an illusion

to keep the country together but I'm

pretty sure we don't have a lot to do

with who gets power and what happens and

in the biggest decisions

so somehow the Democrats have managed to

convince uh or the the press and the

propagandists have managed to convince

something like half the country that the

biggest things they should be afraid of

are all things that are good for the

people in

power let's see getting rid of trump

well that' be good for the people in

power because they want to be in charge

uh saying the white supremacy is the

problem well that would be good for the

people in power because it keeps Trump

out of office uh what about climate

change well that would be good for the

people in power because it means that a

trillion dollar will be heading their

Direction and for the all the the

services and the Technologies and the

companies that are pro- Democrat so that

would be good for them what about

Russia's the biggest fear oh the

military-industrial complex can make

lots more money if Russia is our enemy

than if we found a way to get along with

them so Democrats are living in a

completely fake fear world now here are

some things that I would consider real

things to be afraid of now I'm not

trying to make you afraid but I wanted

you to want you to contrast the reality

of these versus the complete fictional

fear of what the Democrats are living

under so these would be things that

Republicans would be concerned with

government censorship of what they call

disinformation which is really the end

of the first amendment and the end of

any kind of

Freedom that's what Republicans are

worried about is that real it's

completely real I mean it's documented

in so many ways you can't you know I

can't even mention them all but from the

Twitter files on we've seen that the

government has colluded with um the

media and platforms to censor and censor

the truth not just misin information

censor the truth and probably know

they're doing it so should you be afraid

of the loss of free speech well depends

if you think you ever had it what about

the fact that our food supply is

poison that bothers me a lot that's like

I don't know it'd be hard to come up

with a bigger problem than that

poisoning you with your food

supply um but that's a big issue

especially with RFK Jr part of the

pirate ship uh I'm worried about Dei I

think Dei is destroying the country it's

just destroying the fabric of the

country which was merit-based and now it

isn't a non-merit based system is

guaranteed to fail and I'm really

worried about that and that's very real

and we're seeing the mass incompetence

problem everywhere from the Secret

Service to you name it it's everywhere

I'm worried about the debt I have no

idea how to solve that no idea how to

solve it and it's terminal by the way if

we don't solve it we're all

dead um and I don't know how to solve it

and nobody has an idea

so that's a problem how about uh nuclear

war well I don't think it's an imminent

problem but it's one that I worry about

um how about the supply chain breaking

down that's a really big problem

especially if a ran gets into a fighting

War more directly with Israel or the

United States they've already threatened

to turn off the oil and and maybe block

the straight of Horus or we think they

would I don't know if they've threatened

that so I worry about the supply chain I

worry about the next pandemic that

um may be coming along I worry about the

population decline the birth rate

problem in the United States I worry

about that I worry about energy shortage

that's driven by having too many robots

and too much Ai and self-driving cars

and then we don't have enough energy to

keep the lights on I worry about that a

lot how about uh how about foreign

countries hacking our infrastructure and

being able to turn off our lights in our

water anytime they want I worry about

that I'm pretty sure that's real

according to uh the FBI it looks like

China is already hacked into everything

and they can just turn us off when they

want that's a problem

um and of course I worry about the Deep

State controlling the world uh the

country so I feel like those are pretty

well documented easily defended obvious

real

fears here's what I put zero fear into

Trump stealing my democracy white

supremacy

milias that nobody can find climate

change and Russia wanting to attack US

unless we attack them I mean if if we

keep going after Russia enough then it

becomes a problem but I don't think it's

a problem if we're just waiting

around all right I'm getting a

confirmation that's still just hard

cover that's available on

Amazon so just think of that so A bunch

of you went to Amazon to check my claim

and you came back with different stories

about what is available and what's not

you can't even tell if you can buy my

book just think about that the a number

of you went to check just to see if my

book is available for sale and you can't

tell you can't tell some of you say it

is and some of you say it definitely

isn't the hard cover is definitely is is

available wow well dog mhof is in

trouble but I don't think any Democrats

will care or hear about it

allegedly uh in 2020 in 2012 he slapped

his girlfriend for flirting at some

party where they were all drunk she

allegedly hit him back uh no file no

charges were filed some say allegedly he

paid $80,000 to make the story go away I

don't know if that's

confirmed um so the Daily Mail says they

have three sources I

guess now if you look at the way the

media is handling it so far the the

biggest part of the

media the biggest part the media is only

uh kind of ignoring

it so I don't think Democrats will even

hear it or if they do they'll think it

must be a nothing from the

past um but Chris Cuomo news Nation he

did do a little video piece in which he

said that if this had been Trump who had

done these things or anyone close to him

it would just be the only

news to which I say that sounds about

right yeah

yeah so we're going to get the

completely different treatment because

it's him now um I love the fact that

uh that MSNBC in particular was trying

to turn wals and Doug mhof into the new

model of

masculinity and then you find that the

new model of mascul the new model of

masculinity slapped around a girlfriend

uh got the I think it's was The Nanny

the same girlfriend I think it's the

same person right got her

pregnant yeah so there's your new model

of masculinity that didn't work out the

way anybody

hoped bill maluan is talking about the

northern border so apparently just in

three states on our northern border so

this is this is not the entire northern

border just three states uh Vermont New

York and New Hampshire and keep in mind

that yeah just three states and uh

currently according to the border patrol

they got 19,000 illegal immigrants in

2024 so far that's higher than the

previous 17 years combined and they came

from 97 different countries now how many

got through if 19,000 got

caught but only in three states that

border so we got a whole bunch of states

that border

Canada that's a

lot how many terrorists do you think are

inside the

country if I were

Iran let me tell you how I would build a

defense against the United States and I

don't think I'm giving them ideas

because this is sort of obvious if our

borders are open you would sneak as many

operatives as you

could and any one motivated operative

with a little bit of Weaponry that

doesn't seem too hard to

get could do horrible damage horrible

damage

and again I'm not going to give many

ideas um oh you I think my wind bigley

the first edition you're still seeing in

various forms it's the second edition

that's not available in all its

forms anyway so I would expect that if

we have war with Iran suddenly the

lights are going to go out in the United

States so yeah and I suppose it depends

how bad things get but if we took out or

Israel let's say Israel took out the oil

refineries in Iran which basically

eliminated their way to essentially

eliminate their economy they wouldn't be

able to survive I think they would turn

the lights off in the United States I

think you literally wouldn't have

electricity and I think that they have

the ability to do that either through

physical sabotage or

hacking and here's the thing I wonder

if something that big did happen to us

in the United States there's there's no

restraint that we would use to make sure

it didn't happen again so that would end

Iran as an independent nation in my

opinion if they turned off the lights in

the United States and it you know we

couldn't get them back on and it caused

a 100,000 people to die just from the

lack of electricity which is possible by

the way you could have 100,000 people

die if that happened even we judged well

we were a little bit responsible for you

maybe poking the bear some people would

say and other would others would say no

we're just responding to them poking us

all the time we' never get to the bottom

of that but if something that radical

happened on the

Homeland I think the US Military and

Israel would essentially just colonize

Iran and just take over the government

there what at whatever cost I think at

any cost we would do it at that point

point so that's probably the only thing

that's keeping Iran or China or anybody

else from turning off our lights because

it does seem we're super vulnerable the

only thing that we have is not that

we're protecting our facilities or even

our borders the only thing we have is

that if somebody does it we're going to

find out who you

are and we're going to make sure that

everybody who's ever close to you is

dead so that's the only protecting us

right

now yeah there's a bunch of counterfeit

um versions of all my books so for all

of my books as soon as I get published

there'll be all these counterfeits so

hold this in your mind Ju Just Just hold

this truth so on

Amazon I can only get my hard cover

published because they give me technical

problems that they can't solve and

there's no mechanism to solve it for the

soft cover and the Kindle but how many

counterfeit versions of my book did they

approve and you can buy them

today a

lot people just massively print

counterfeit versions of my book and they

won't take them down but the real one

they won't put up and I'm worried that

the reason I can't publish the real one

is because the counterfeits have already

taken the space meaning that they the

the system probably says oh that book

already exists but it would be the

counterfeits so I worry that that's the

problem or it's just political it'd be a

big coincidence if it

isn't well do you know how California

had that new law that said that

disinformation was going to be illegal

especially political disinformation and

you could go to jail for a political

parody and it turns out that a uh

federal court has uh tossed that out

it's unconstitutional so the California

ban on Election related quote

misinformation looks like that's just

going away so thank goodness there are

still some courts that

operate we don't have much going on

going for us

but

fortunately well here's some good news

um uh October is so lit when it comes to

all the election stuff the the things

that it looks like maybe people waited

to tell you

but here's one did you know well you did

know that the Republican the

RNC where uh uh Lara Trump and uh who is

she working with she's got

a she has a co-chairman person Michael

Watley so Laura Trump and Michael Watley

um in case you're wondering if they've

been

busy you're wondering hey is that orang

getting anything done listen to

this so apparently the

RNC has recruited and trained hundreds

of thousands of volunteers thousands of

attorneys and I have already held

thousands of

trainings ahead of the

election so that the total number of

volunteers is

220,000 and they've had over over 2,000

trainings and they've got 5,000

attorneys

recruited 5,000 attorneys

220,000 volunteers and they've had 2,000

training sessions does that sound like

they're working

hard sure

does sure does now it's impossible to

know from a distance you know how much

of this is needed and whether you got

enough but these are big numbers

so remember I told you months ago I said

that the the wild card and all of this

the election might be Lara Trump's level

of

aggressiveness in terms of how

aggressively are you going to make sure

that cheating doesn't happen this time

this is aggressive now Michael Watley

gets of course credit as well that's a

they they're their

team but I have nothing to complain

about here

do you feel the same does this feel like

this is a serious no joke we're really

going to try to fix this problem don't

know if it's enough don't know if

they'll be observing in a way that can

make a difference but

wow this is the best news I think I've

heard in a long time my perfect scenario

goes like

this Democrats massively

cheat Republicans catch the cheat in

time

and it's enough to redo How We Do

elections in other words we'll learn

that our elections have too many holes

cuz we we'll catch too many problems I

don't

think it's practical that we're going to

have an actual election result unless

unless Trump wins by Landslide and the

Democrats decide

uncharacteristically they decide it was

a clean election so I think what you're

going to

see is that Dem rats will be questioning

the election if they lose even by a

landslide and they'll say Russia

interfered they'll do all the normal

things and they'll try to put Trump in

jail so we're just getting going and

we're only the third of

October um oh look it's another

coincidence oh look at all the

coincidences happening in October right

before the election here's a coincidence

according to uh Scott presler who's a

signing people up to vote in in uh

Pennsylvania doing an amazing job um

this Saturday Trump is going to come

back to Pennsylvania to that Butler Farm

Show Place the same place he uh almost

was

assassinated so imagine how much press

he's going to get and how much

pennsylvanians will be paying attention

when Trump goes right back to the very

place where somebody took a shot at him

right that that naturally will be

just complete press saturation there's

no way they can ignore it and it'll make

you think if you're a republican it's

really going to make you think to vote

it's really going to make you think to

register if you haven't because

Pennsylvania is the key thing so not

only is Pennsylvania the key state but

by coincidence it's a it's a place where

he got shot at and almost killed shot

actually

and here's a coincidence you

you'll never guess turns out that the

Pennsylvania voter registration website

is going to be unavailable for

maintenance that evening from 6:00 pm.

which is 1 hour after the

rally to midnight so the exact period of

time where people would be thinking

about Pennsylvania thinking about voting

thinking about

registering that's when the system won't

be

available the one time that Trump goes

back to Pennsylvania to that same place

the one time he's going to get the most

press and the most

attention they're going to do a little

maintenance on the system so you can't

register

then coincidence it could be it could be

that the maintenance was scheduled long

before the the baller

thing

but don't you think it looks like

election interference

if you wanted to make it not election

interference you know in the let's let's

say they scheduled it a year ago so

there's nothing there's nothing weird

about it once you knew that Trump was

going to be in

berler shouldn't you change

it shouldn't you re couldn't you

reschedule it couldn't you do it maybe

after

midnight I don't know I got questions

I'm not I'm not willing to say this was

done specifically to depress Trump

voters from registering I'm going to say

that if you knew it's going to be a

problem you should reschedule so if they

don't well then that looks a little

slippery meanwhile according to the

Gateway pundit you know we've got this

big uh question mark about uh overseas

votes these would be Americans who are

allowed to vote they just happen to be

overseas so there's a big program by the

uh Democrats to make sure that those

overseas voters are definitely voting as

many as

possible uh it's called the uni the uh

uniformed overseas citizens absentee

Voting

Act and so the Democrats are going to

really really uh they put money into

it and they're going to go look and make

sure that all those people voted do you

see any possible problems with

that no what what's wrong with making

sure people vote how could that possibly

be a problem I you are so suspicious no

they're they just want to make sure

everybody has a right to vote and that's

available and Nothing Stops people from

expressing their Democratic preferences

so stop thinking there's some like plot

or or it's obvious that there's

something sketchy going on there's no

evidence of that whatsoever no evidence

at all let's see uh they're trying to

win approximately they say there are 9

million Americans

that are overseas and could vote some

percentage of them so they're working on

that 9 million the only problem is uh

there are only 2.8 million of them that

are of voting age and can vote and live

overseas so they're going to they're

working to get 9 million votes out of

the 2.8 million wait a minute okay which

is a bigger

number nine is bigger than 2.8 right so

they're only 2.8

are of the right age and also are

overseas but they're trying to get 9

million votes out of the 2.8 million

okay I take back everything I said uh

you should really really worry about

that now this is coming from the Gateway

pundit and various sources and do I know

that there's something sketchy here well

this is one of those cases where you'd

want to hear the

counterargument so the the accus ation

is that they're very clearly signaling

that they're going to get way more votes

from overseas than there are human

beings who are eligible to vote

overseas so it does feel

like the setup is being broadcast to us

you can see it coming from a mile away

unless they have an explanation and

maybe they have different data about

who's overseas and what they expect to

do maybe

but do you trust that does this look

innocent to you it doesn't look innocent

to

me now one would

hope one would hope that the Lara Trump

Michael wle RNC people have some way to

get extra visibility into that process I

don't know what that would look like but

there's got to be some way to see the

votes opened up or something

we'll see maybe if that's completely una

auditable we got a

problem meanwhile uh judge Chuck Ken has

unsealed Jack Smith's new uh

indictment uh and this is the one that

it got on all the the lawfare stuff I'm

the worst person to listen to so I'll

tell you what I think I know the only

the only thing you can get out of my

analysis of the law pair of stuff is

that somebody who watches the news

doesn't even understand it like I I do

this literally every day I check all the

news stories and my brain just turns off

when I look at the legal stuff partly

because it's always just so boring and

partly because you you know if you're

not a lawyer you can't really understand

which parts are important and which

parts are just formalities and which

parts will be overturned so you don't

have to worry about them you know it's

hard for me to dig in so look for the

actual lawyers you know the Jonathan

tures and the dtz you know look look for

the people uh who've done

this uh to give you a better look but

here's what I think is true from a non-

lawyer stupid

perspective it looks to me like it's

another oh it's a coincidence what a

coincidence that this dropped just

before the election and we won't have

time to know that let's say the uh

accusations turn out to be false and

let's say there's a court process and

let's say that Trump is completely

exonerated well you're not going to know

that by election day because by

coincidence this drops just in time to

to Poison the Well and make people think

who there's with all of this action 165

pages there must be something there now

my understanding is that

um this was Rewritten because of the

presidential immunity decision at the

Supreme Court which said that if Trump

did something under the official Banner

of his office he had some

immunity uh so apparently it's being

Rewritten to emphasize the things he did

which they're defining as outside the

scope of His official office for example

they talk about his tweeting in his

personal account as opposed to his

presidential account because is using

the personal one would be a sign that

he's doing it knowing he's doing it and

will side of the presidential you know

umbrella does any of that matter I don't

know you'd have to talk to a lawyer not

me but um you've got this totally biased

prosecutor you've got this totally left

leading judge and they just dropped this

thing that cannot be defended there's

just no defense against it because it's

complicated and people just say well

there's something there with all that

smoke there must be fire but of course

the play is cre lots of smoke so that

people think there's a

fire so during the election season it is

not true that with all that smoke there

must be fire that's just not true during

an election season it's just true that

it could be but in the non-election

context a whole bunch of smoke probably

tells you there's a fire and the

election season doesn't mean anything it

just means somebody's making an

accusation

um so I tried to figure out just exactly

what was in that thing and as far as I

can tell it's mostly somebody called it

hearsay meaning that it's bunch of

people who were acting in ways that

maybe they thought were compatible with

what Trump wanted but there doesn't seem

to be anything that Trump said or did

directly that would be illegal as far as

I know now this is too preliminary to

know that that was a true statement so

I'm waiting for the news to surface you

know what's the thing we need to know

can you give me the quote that says

Trump did something haven't seen it I've

seen a bunch of quotes that other people

thought they were doing other things but

here's my big question about the whole

situation everything that Trump did on

January 6 and this is this is all about

the January 6 business um everything you

did in order for it to look like it was

against the

law would require you to know that he

knew the election was

clean that's the trick they're playing

on the country and Democrats are falling

for it Democrats actually believe you

can me you can measure the temperature

of the

earth

accurately and they believe that you can

know if an American election was clean

or not

I don't know how dumb you'd have to be

to believe either of those two

things but super dumb there is no way to

know if an American election was clean

you can know if somebody had a specific

complaint and there was time and

standing to pursue it you could know how

the coure

ruled but there's no way to know that

there's is or is not something hidden in

the system that was changing the result

how do you know what you don't know

you don't hey look there's a giant pile

of

hay somebody said there might be a

needle in it how do you judge there's no

needle in

it well I don't see a needle no court

has decided there's a needle you can't

prove there's a needle but then I say

but you also can't prove there's not a

needle because you're not even looking

for it well why would I look for

something that is unspecific well that's

my point how would you know if there was

something in the system that was

corrupting it if you didn't look well

nobody's complained there's no court

case I know this had nothing to do with

my point how would you know that some

State actor maybe with some insiders

hadn't done something how would you know

there weren't some male carriers who got

together and said let's just throw away

all the mail from the the red

neighborhoods how would you know there

is no way to know those things unless

somebody came forward as a

whistleblower or just somebody got

lucky there is no way to know and our

systems are designed to make sure you

can't know now if there's only one thing

you ever learn you should learn that the

system the way a system is designed will

tell you the intentions of the designers

but not on day one on day one it could

just be poorly designed

and then you go oh okay they didn't mean

for the machine to not

work that was just a

mistake if it's 10 years later and and

the Machine is still doing the wrong

thing you can no longer say that's an

accident at some point and we're well

beyond that point at some point it's the

design

intention because you would fix it if it

were not the design intention right so

that's why you can't tell in the first

place but is obvious it is now obvious

very obvious completely obvious and by

the way you will never see anybody

debunk this

point there's your dog not barking

you'll see people say there was no proof

of fraud

true there's no proof of fraud that a

court accepted oh let me put it that way

there's no court accepted proof of a

2020 fraud doesn't mean

anything it doesn't mean you didn't have

any fraud

yeah your our systems are designed to

make sure you can't tell and that's

really

obvious so

um what else is going on so my main

point there is that uh I've got this

question about the latest um Jack Smith

indictment stuff how much of that

depends on Trump's inner thoughts

as in if Trump knew because they like to

say he knew the election that he lost

the election don't let anybody say that

in front of you if somebody says he knew

he lost the election just get all over

him and say how the could you know

the unknowable how do you know you you

couldn't even describe how the election

is put

together and then you go into why do we

have voting machines at

all so

I think the entire January 6 hoax and

I'm going to call it a hoax The

hoax is that we know what Trump

knows or that he could know whether the

election was clean or not to me it seems

obvious that he really believed it was

rigged which would make 100% of his

actions make

sense because if he thought it was

rigged and he was trying to fix that

problem that would be doing what the

President should do but on top of that

even if he did it as a private citizen

it's what a private citizen should do a

private citizen should try to fix a

problem with the with the

system if you had the power as a citizen

you weren't elected to anything and you

saw that there was some big thing that

you could fix what's your responsibility

as a citizen fix it fix it it's not your

job but it's definitely your

responsibility as as it would be for all

of us like the

flood the the flood is you know sort of

the government's job and FEMA the one

supposed to be doing it but you've seen

a bunch of people said what the hell

this isn't getting done so they're

taking their own helicopters and raising

their own money you know trying to get

their own uh you know internet

connections in there and stuff so

citizens do have a responsibility to fix

things that are

broken so whether Trump was operating

under the banner of hisob job or

independent of his job that didn't

change the fact that it was his job as a

citizen not a paid job not an elected

job but as a citizen absolutely he he's

supposed to go fix that if he's the one

in a position where it makes most sense

for him to do it if I were in the

position where I could fix that I would

feel that was my job an unpaid job but

it would certainly be my patriotic duty

to try to fix it

so yes don't let anybody make you think

past the sale the sale they have to make

is how do you know that

Trump could somehow know the unknowable

that it was a clean election when it

looked like it wasn't that's not

knowable don't let anybody make you

think past that well there's more Diddy

updates I keep seeing videos of Jaguar

Wright who is a musician

herself and she claims have all kinds of

inside information about diddies parties

Etc she said she used to be a sex worker

and so she sees the world from you know

the the darkest corners and she was also

part of Diddy's world so she's seen you

know the entire field she

claims and here are the things that

she's

saying um that there were in fact

Satanic rituals again this is just a

claim uh I would put her credibility

as a coin

flip I I'm not sure that I lean toward

her being accurate on

everything but it does sound accurate I

have to admit it has that there is a

ring of truth to it I just don't know if

all of it's

true so i' take with a big big grain of

salt this particular

Source uh but it's worth listening

to so she says that young girls were

stuffed into suitcases and later

discarded in

Alleyways you'd think there somebody

would ask a follow-up question on that

oh hold on hold on young girls put in

what

suitcases and then you take the suitcase

to the

alley wa are they alive in the

suitcase and why'd you put them in the

suitcase and if they were

dead why'd you put them in an alley so

so that's the sort of accusation where I

say hm

Satanic rituals probably

not girls stuffed into

suitcases if I had heard it happen

once I might have said well that's

terrible but it could happen once but if

you're saying it's sort of a routine

thing to stuff girls and suitcases and

drop them in alleys that's a little less

credible

sounding um she implicated Jay-Z saying

he has hundreds of victims there's not

yet any uh solid evidence of that and

then she goes this far she says there's

some Sinister web that ties together

Diddy Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey

Epstein okay I'm out I'm

out two on the

nose is that a little bit

convenient just a little bit too

perfect oh it CL cleverly ties together

all these loose ends now it could I'm

not ruling it

out I mean stranger things have happened

but it's a little bit too exactly like

what people are expecting you know in

their conspiracy

theories and uh she says that Diddy was

a product of Music Mogul Clive Davis and

Lucian gra never heard of him and taught

him everything he

knows well interestingly last night I

was watching a Whitney Houston

documentary that involves Clive Davis

discovering her and uh according to the

documentary Clive Davis is just the

nicest guy and man can he help your

career because he's a nice guy just a

nice nice guy

so do I believe that version of

him no because

honestly almost nobody is that nice

if he's as nice as he was in the movie

he's really nice that that would be one

seriously nice guy and maybe he is maybe

he is so I'm not willing to go so far as

to throw any of these characters under

the bus I think we can throw didy under

the bus with some confidence but all the

other names I'm really

uncomfortable assuming that there's

actual evidence of crimes there might

be there might be I mean there's 120

alleged victims

according to one attorney so how big

this could get we don't know but don't

assume that some big celebity name you

heard is necessarily going to be

guilty well Israel is uh supposedly

going to Target in the next day or so uh

maybe Iranian nuclear

facilities

maybe um oil

facilities and uh Israel did just today

I guess strike a Russian Air Base in

Syria now the reason is that some

weapons for Hezbollah were allegedly in

an airplane that landed there so they

were really going they weren't going

after Russians they were going after the

Hezbollah supply line but uh they

haven't done that

before so it attacked the warehouses it

was trying not to kill too many people

apparently and Russian air defenses

tried to intercept the isra missiles so

it was a missile attack and they

failed so does that tell you anything

does that tell you that Israeli missiles

are better than Russian air defenses or

does it maybe tell you that Russia has

to use all their good stuff in

Ukraine is it possible that the Syrian U

military assets are just all the the

crap stuff left over that didn't go to

Ukraine maybe don't know

but certainly Israel has demonstrated

that they can reach anything and they

have demonstrated

by

basically not having any damage from 200

rocket or 200 was it InterContinental

missiles that got sent at them from Iran

with no damage really to speak of I mean

nothing major so so we're in that uh

that weird area where everybody's

posturing and they've got to make sure

that they look strong and they they made

a defense but they didn't go too far

because you don't want a bigger War so

everybody's trying to balance on the the

head of the needle

here so what would you think is are they

going to attack is Israel going to

attack the nuclear facilities which

would slow down Iran's ability to have a

breakout nuclear thing uh with nuclear

weapons or would they go after something

that's more directly related to their

economic weal

being so if they go after the oil

terminals Iran has said they'll go after

all the oil terminals in the area so the

entire world will be out of oil would

they do

that don't

know there there's a real good chance

they

wouldn't because if they took out all

the oil facilities in the Middle East

that would make every country in the

Middle East say does uh anybody want a

little help destroying Iran uh we'll

we'll send some

people I mean I can't imagine that the

other the neighboring countries would

put up with that you know is Saudi

Arabia going to put up with that I mean

I think that's that's World War I now I

think World War II would still be

limited to the Middle East mostly except

for terrorist acts in other countries

but I feel like I feel like Israel

probably won't go after the oil

refineries because that would be too

much for shock to the whole world but if

they go after the nuclear facilities and

that's all they go after and let's say

they succeed in slowing it down then

they get a definite

benefit uh and they get a might not

spread it might be the least likely to

spread to a larger field and um and they

could say that they

responded so I guess I would bet on that

as the first most likely thing they

would do is take out the nuclear thing

because if they take out the nuclear

threat the threat that Iran can make a

nuclear weapon in two weeks which by the

way is the estimate that they're about

that if they wanted to they could have a

nuclear weapon in two weeks do you know

what I say about

that if Iran could have a nuclear weapon

in two weeks which by the way I'm not

sure that that's true but if they could

have it in two weeks they already have

one how how the hell would we

know if they had a nuclear weapon

already if the experts were saying they

could make one in two weeks if they

wanted to are you telling me they could

make one in two weeks if they wanted to

and they didn't make one they've had two

weeks in what world does a country not

secretly make an actual nuclear

weapon that would be insane they should

make it as fast as possible and tell

everybody they got one or at least

suggest it so that you don't know if

they can attack with a nuke or not now I

suppose Israel's intelligence would

probably be good enough that they would

know if they had a breakout nuclear

weapon but uh if I were Iran I hate to

say it but I would have made the nuclear

weapon

already so there's that uh then there's

the thought that if Iran got into a

general War like a big wider War where

really the you know the mainland of Iran

was under

attack that they don't have enough uh

manufacturing ability to replace their

weapons after a fairly you know intense

fight so if they use most of their

weapons fighting they don't have a way

to rebuild them fast enough to stay in

the fight and the only place they could

get them would be Russia and Russia is

not likely to send them a lot of weapons

at the same time they're trying to use

them in

Ukraine so Iran is probably not capable

of a sustained war that it could

win um so these are all the

variables now I haven't heard the news

talking about a decapitation attack and

given that Israel has shown that they'll

take out the leaders of Hezbollah and

Hamas if they

can um do you think that would really

stop from taking up the leadership of

Iran I feel like it's on the table it

seems a lot safer than taking out the

the oil facilities if you take out the

oil facilities it's War for sure if you

take out the

leadership I don't know maybe it's worse

I don't know how to judge that

one but most importantly there's uh the

BBC reports there's some science that

scientists have made a a huge

breakthrough in analyzing the brain of a

fly now even a fly has a super

complicated brain but it's a tiny little

brain and way way less complicated than

you know bigger mammals but they think

they've made this big breakthrough and

sort of mapping it almost like

physically building a map of how all the

neurons connect to the other ones and uh

it's the most detailed analysis of the

brain of an adult creature ever produced

now what they don't say is that it's the

first step in understanding why

Democrats vote the way they do you got

to start with the fly but then you work

your your way up so it's like fly

salamander Democrat no I'm just joking

I'm just joking I kid the Democrats now

they're like everybody else except

they're afraid of things that don't

exist well meta has these new smart

glasses um that you can wear with some

VR

capabilities and uh some people combined

that with an app called uh Pim eyes

that can do facial

recognition and it'll allow you to walk

through a crowd and the personal

information of everybody you look at

will pop up on your

glasses so you'll know the name and

address and social media history and

they say phone numbers but I don't know

where they get that so you can actually

see the phone number of somebody as you

walk past them in a crowd total

strangers now is that going to stay

illegal

probably probably but imagine going to a

party wearing your nerd glasses and you

could tell who's

single suppose that's the only thing you

knew you could tell who's single just by

looking at him suppose you could tell

their job just by looking at them

suppose you could tell how much money

they have just by looking at them with

your glasses that's all

happening that's all happening

so my little life where uh most of the

time I'm

Anonymous it's about to end really

quickly you know if I leave my my small

town here and I don't run into somebody

who watches the show every day I'm kind

of anonymous like if I go to an airport

I'm not usually recognized sometimes not

usually now all it would take is a few

people with those glasses on and they're

going to ID me right away so does that

change my life I don't know it might

might change my life

radically yours

too um apparently the Doctor Who

prescribed the drugs for Matthew Perry

that he died of an overdose of has plad

guilty according to the

BBC so there were two doctors involved

one had some facility that had

ketamine uh and the other was his doctor

so I guess his doctor was working with

the source doctor so none of it was

illegal in terms of the doctoring but I

think the the amount that they got and

the way it was distributed the way it

was the way it was ingested there are

the questions there I guess but

uh here's the part that was just really

scary so according to the

indictment uh the the two doctors

involved they were exchanging text

trying to figure out how to get this

drug to to Matthew Perry and uh they're

trying to figure out how much to charge

him and one of the doctors said and I

quote I wonder how much this will

pay those are the

doctors the doctors the people who were

responsible for

keeping Matthew Perry

alive were wondering how to rob him and

calling him a

wow if I can make any advice to the

medical professionals uh who are

watching now I wouldn't ever call any of

your customers

morons because you never know when

that's going to get discovered I feel

like all of our messages are

discoverable and at some point they'll

all be available publicly everywhere

that seems inevitable

but maybe don't do that yeah don't don't

be like

that meanwhile according to the

independent the US Army is rolling in a

robot dog with a gun on

it and uh we've talked about this before

we got robot dogs with

flamethrowers we've got uh every kind of

drone and now we have uh robot dogs with

guns fitted at the top well you know I

want one of

those uh if anybody's thinking about a

good Christmas pres to send

me at the top of the list is a robot dog

to defend my house now here's where

we're going with us these These are

actually being deployed in war zones now

so

Ukraine the Ukrainian military is going

to be seeing robot dogs with guns and

flamethrowers coming over the hedge

r that is not going to be a fun battle

I'll tell you so we've now entered the

we've now entered the age in which

humans are going to fight

robots that's here because already the

ukrainians are using their robots to you

know breach the front lines and shoot

the Russians so we now have humans

fighting

robots it's real it's

now the question is this how long will

it be before both sides are just all

robots now if if major power fights a

smaller power it's going to be the major

Powers robots against the humans of the

smaller power and the humans won't have

a chance you know assuming that the

superpower has lots of money to make

lots of robots humans won't have a

chance but what happens if two

superpowers that can make unlimited

robots get in a war with each other

would it ever make sense for the US and

China to be in a war in which we put

humans on the front

line if we could if we could send

unlimited drones and unlimited robot

dogs wouldn't you just have the robots

fight the

robots it's just going to be battlebot

right and then what happens when one of

the robot sides

wins does the other side say whoa whoa

whoa we're not going to put our humans

against your robots and you've already

beat the robots we

surrender it's going to be like that

Star Trek where they would do a

simulation of the war so they didn't

have to have the actual war and then

whoever lost the simulation of the war

had to volunteer to be basically

suicided you know in some humane

way I think we're actually heading to

that place like actually

literally where after the robot war is

over the losers have to accept the

penalty whatever that penalty is could

be slavery

anyway so you might all want your own

robot dog to guard your house and uh

also the Second Amendment is going to

get a little

dicey if the Second Amendment says you

can own a

gun what's it going to say about your

robot dog with a machine gun mounted on

it or or let's say it's a

singleshot sort of a home defense weapon

but it's mounted on a robot do we have

laws that will handle robots with guns

and uh if the robot becomes

sensient is it your fault if the robot

uses the gun to Sho somebody because it

would be the robot's

decision I don't

know so that's what I got for you today

I'm going to take a little time to talk

to the uh locals people on their

own and

uh once we get that going um

anyway so we going to talk to locals if

you're on X or YouTube or Rumble thanks

for joining it'll take about 20 seconds

to be private with the locals

people so that's when we do our

interstitial
