Back to episode — Episode 1963 Scott Adams - Massive Government Corruption And Why Nothing Will Happen About It
Context —
as to be called out. This is funny violence. Some of the funniest violence you'll see today. So totally against violence. Don't do any violence. But if you do funny violence, I'm very likely to tweet it. There's a thread by Cabot Phillips about male fertility, saying that in the last 50 years the average male sperm count has dropped 62 percent and testosterone rates are down over 30 percent. And…

Speaking of corruption, the theme for the rest of this is that the whole government is corrupt in various ways. And it occurred to me today that if Trump takes the Crooked Hillary concept and just applies it to the entire FBI, Department of Justice, CIA, and if he just says look I'm just going to fire the top several layers of management in all of these organizations. I don't even know which ones are good and which ones are bad and I can't tell but I'm going to get rid of two levels of management from the top down in all of these organizations. I'm just going to give them all a haircut. I'm just going to mow the lawn. And I'm sorry I don't know which ones are good and which ones are bad and this will be bad for the ones who are good and got taken out. But for the good of the country these organizations have lost our trust. We just have to mow the lawn. Time to do maintenance. It's just basic maintenance. It's like not personal. It's just you've gotta shore up the Republic.
Now what have I taught you is the best, most powerful form of persuasion? Go. Fear. Correct. Got it on the first try. Fear. Don't you think that the entire government being corrupt scares people? Now I don't know if it scares people on the left yet because they may be getting such fake news that they have no idea what's going on.
But between the concern about the vaccinations, whether that whole thing was handled honestly, the concern about the FBI which has now gone beyond concern, it's proof that they were working against the legally elected government. You know that's just now in evidence. And I think Trump could make a case that if he goes with draining the swamp but nobody's going to listen to that because he didn't do any draining the swamp. It has to be more specific. I'm going to fire two layers of all of these organizations. I'm just going to replace all the management that's been there for more than a year or something like that. Anyway I think you could do that.
You're the following things that are, oh and I would also call it a tourniquet strategy. So imagine if Trump went after all the corrupt organizations but also in every rally he went through the hoaxes that the country has suffered because of the media, right? Like there's at least 20 of them that he could mention. He could throw in a new one in every rally. All right, here's my third rally, hoax number three. And there's just speak about the hoax and then it becomes like a little news bite and they just hit every hoax until the news can summarize them. I hear all the hoaxes that you know Trump has debunked anyway.
The January 6 hoax committee, I call them a hoax because I can't take the January 6 committee seriously. There are four things they have recommended to the Department of Justice. Their recommendations have no weight, no standing, and no functional purpose whatsoever because the Department of Justice is already investigating everything they care about. Like they weren't waiting. The Department of Justice wasn't waiting for this public information to be packaged up like it doesn't have any. It's just not a part of any justice system process. It's literally just for the news so they have something to talk about and you know, propaganda.
So here are the four things. The question I want to ask you is if you know what projection means, where you blame somebody of doing the exact crime that you're doing. See if this sounds like projection because the committee did seem like a bunch of toxic narcissists and there they project. So just ask yourself if the things that they're saying that Trump did, is there anything in the past few years that you would say would apply to the Democrats?
For example, number one, obstruction of an official proceeding. Is there anything that any Democrats have done in the past several years that would look like obstruction of an official proceeding? Yes, lots. About conspiracy to defraud the U.S. I don't even know what that refers to. I watched this whole thing and I don't know what that is. What exactly would the be the conspiracy to defraud something? The election by saying the election wasn't fair according to him. All right, have the Democrats ever done a conspiracy to defraud the U.S.? Russia collusion hoax, of course they have. Yeah, the Democrats run one conspiracy after another to defraud the U.S. It's non-stop.
How about making a false statement? Can you believe that they want the Department of Justice to prosecute Trump for making a false statement? Could you be more specific? You know, could you be less specific? All the Democrats do is make false statements. Yeah, that's like Schiff's entire job. The laptop you know was disinformation. It's all false statements.
How about inciting an insurrection? Who do you think incited the insurrection? Well I mean all of these are so subjective. Yeah, the FBI. So to me it looks like just projection. That's all I see. Now of course it'll work because the Democrats will embrace it.
Now I saw a tweet from Greg Price who says the person who made this announcement, in other words the four charges against Trump, was Representative Jamie Raskin who objected to the certification of the 2016 election based on the lie that Russia installed Trump as president. Now knowing as you will that Jamie Raskin is the one who read the four charges and knowing that he was personally involved in basically this crime.
So did when Jamie Raskin objected to the certification of the 2016 election based on the lie that Russia installed Trump as president, was he obstructing an official proceeding? Sort of. With a bunch of, was he, was it a conspiracy to defraud the U.S.? That's exactly what it was. The Russian collusion thing was a conspiracy to defraud the U.S. Was he making a false statement? Yes. And was he inciting an insurrection? He was literally trying to overthrow the government like overtly. He said this government should be overthrown because it's a Russian whatever.
Now could this be more obvious? You know I'm somewhat infamous for saying that I didn't think projection was necessarily even real. I didn't think it was honestly. But until you see the real examples of it it's hard to believe. Like if you didn't see example after example you wouldn't believe it on concept. You know the concept of it is too ridiculous. But there it is. There it is. This could not be a cleaner example than projection. And the Democrats are buying it.
All right, so today I guess the House Ways and Means Committee is going to vote on releasing Trump's tax returns. Has that happened yet? Has the vote happened? Probably not. I would have heard about it. So what's the dog not barking? Do you hear the biggest dog in the world not barking? Like a really, really big dog not barking. They, Congress has his tax returns. They've looked at them. They have nothing to complain about apparently. Apparently there's no crime there.
Don't you think if there were, if there were anything in the taxes, do you think it would have leaked? That's not a real question. Of course it would have leaked. A hundred percent chance. That's one of the things you don't have to wonder about. Yeah, right. Not one leak about his taxes. Do you know what that means? It could only mean one thing. There's only one thing that means. There's nothing there.
But what does it mean that they want to release them? What is the second thing it means? It means that they know that the press and the public are now sophisticated at looking at tax returns and that the public will generate unlimited stories of how what bad problems they found that are not real. They'll just take stuff out of context, right?
So clearly the only reason they want to release them is to embarrass Trump and make him less electable. Now if they're not claiming that there are any crimes in there, and so far they're not, if they're not claiming there are any crimes in there, what should be the response to Congress releasing them if there's no claim of impropriety and they release them and they take his privacy?
Well let me give you my opinion. It should be illegal and it should be the death penalty. Now it's not illegal so I'm not recommendi

ng any violence or anything like that. I'm saying that if you were to rate the seriousness of it, they are taking down a president right in front of you or trying to. They're trying to alter the course of the Republic by doing something that apparently doesn't have a legal or country benefit and they're doing it right in front of you. And they're not even claiming there's a crime in there right in…
