something.

Well, looks like we're very close to the beginning of the show. Don't let me miss the top of the hour.

Bonino said they did offer to buy it. I don't know how they could do that.

Isn't Trump saying he'll have more flexibility after the election? Well, I don't think he said that. Finance it. I wonder if he could. I don't know if you could really ever pay enough to give TikTok what they think it's worth.

Why don't big names form their own platform? Why don't you ask Truth Social that question? They tried it.

It's time. It's time. It's time for the pre-show to end and the real show to begin.

Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams because that's what it is. If you'd like to take your experience, and it's an experience let me tell you, up to a level that nobody can even imagine with their tiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or a tankard or a chalice or a stein, a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind filled with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now.

I feel connected to all of you with an invisible connection. I thought I was going to come up with a better word than connection, and then once I got there, there really wasn't a better one, so we'll just go with that.

Well, let's just jump into the stories. We'll do the big ones and the small ones, and I'll do at least one thing that could get me cancelled, maybe more, more cancelled than I already am.

Well, the Tate brothers are looking at, some say, life in prison in the UK. And you're probably saying to yourself, my God, what are the charges that are so bad that they could go to prison for life? And the answer is I don't know. I looked, I clicked a bunch of things, I read a bunch of things, but I have no idea. Is it some kind of sexual charge or something? Does anybody know? I've not seen any news of what the charges are.

Now, I think Andrew Tate said he's worried it could turn into an Assange situation. That situation being somebody who's really a political prisoner but the system is treating them like they're a normal prisoner or a normal criminal and could get them killed or kept in jail forever.

Somebody says it's a rape charge. Both of them. Both brothers coincidentally.

Well, how many of you think that's real? Does anybody think that the reason for the charges is that there's a real crime? I doubt it. I mean, we live in a world where you just can't take anything on face value, can you?

Now, I want to be clear. I'm no supporter of the Tate brothers. Or at least Andrew Tate. I've had my differences with him, so I don't support him personally. But when I see a situation like this, it does not scream criminal. It screams political. And I don't think I can ignore the fact that people who have opinions a lot like his all seem to be targeted. Can you think of anybody who has an opinion anywhere in the general area of the Tate brothers who has not been targeted by the government or it looks like the government or intelligence services? Something like that. I can't think of one. Can you?

It seems like every single person who has a certain se
