Scott Adams (11:11)

So yesterday I'm home and I've been getting lots of, lots of people reaching out because my recent health related news and, but I can't talk to everybody like it would just, it's just continual messages coming in and you know, I have to kind of pace myself. So I see a phone number coming in, somebody's calling me from some, some number I don't recognize, some, something in Florida. And I sent it to voicemail and a little bit later I thought better check that voicemail and see if that was anything I need to deal with. And the first, the first sentence in the transcription because you know the phone gives you the text version of the voicemail as well. The first sentence is, this is your favorite president. And I thought to myself, no, did I just send the most important person in the world to voicemail? And it turns out that I had, it was Trump and he was just calling to check in. Now he left a semi lengthy little voicemail. Just say he was checking on me, heard about my health situation. And then he says, you can call me back on this number. Now obviously I don't call him back, right, because that would just be ridiculous. It just was a nice thing for him to say because he called me, you could call me back on this number. So I didn't call him back. On that number, because I thought, it's not like he's sitting at the Resolute desk waiting to do. Waiting for my call. I thought that whatever it is he's doing has got to be more important than randomly taking a call from me. So I don't call him back. Hours go by. It's the afternoon. Same day, it's the afternoon, and all of a sudden another call comes through, also from Florida. And I thought to myself, no fucking way. There's no way he's calling me again. And I answer it, and it's Trump. And apparently he'd heard my situation and he had lots of questions. I won't get into the details of our conversation because that would be inappropriate, but he was just checking on me. And he had, you know, he wanted to make sure that I was getting everything I needed, and that was it. But at the end, the strangest thing happened. At the end, at the end of the call, when he found out the situation was kind of dire and I was still checking out some things that might help, he said, if you need anything, I'll make it happen. And he meant it. He was completely aware of our, let's say, parallel journeys from 2015. He mentioned it, and it was just the most incredible, weird, hard to understand situation. But, boy, was it fun. So, anyway, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. All right? Speaking of my health situation, I have decided to look into as many potential cures as I can, but they all have what I call the one guy problem. So the one guy problem is that if somebody says, I, I've heard of this cure for your exact situation. And I'll say, has anybody ever been cured by whatever it is you're suggesting? And they'll say, yes, yes, there's this one guy. And then I'll look into it, and the one guy's already dead, or he didn't really get cured, or. But there's never two guys. So, you know, I dismiss it if it's only one guy. So I think I have four different one guy problems. Half of the people are saying, you should try Ivermectin and fenbenzole, which, of course, were the first thing I tried, like a year ago. And they all have the same argument. I've heard of a guy. There's this one guy, and it's always the same one guy, which I don't even think is real, but one guy. And then, anyway, so I'm using all of my BS detection to look at these infinite number of suggestions that are medical and I couldn't possibly understand because I'm not a doctor. But I can tell BS when I see it. I think better than most people. You know, it's, I've been demonstrating that for years here on the podcast and there's one left, maybe two, could be two left. But as of this morning, I thought, oh my goodness, I think there's, there might be more than one for this one situation. But then I checked AI, I checked Grok and Grok seemed to think it might be one guy and that one guy didn't get a cure, maybe just extended his life expectancy a few months or something. So we'll see. But just so you know, I'm still looking, still looking at Hail Mary possibilities. Well, in bad news, terrible news, two Israeli embassy staff members were gunned down in cold blood by a suspect 30 year old guy who was yelling free Palestine. And I did it for Gaza. And I don't have much to say about this other than it feels important. So has to be noted that if we've gotten to the point where Americans are being gunned down on the street because of something that's happening in another part of the world, maybe we need to just rethink something. I don't know what. So obviously this is more, not more about, it's completely just about the shooter. It's not about the two young people who were a couple, as it turns out, and they were about to get engaged. So it's got every, every element of tragedy to it and I wish the best for their families, but that's going to be a tough time.

@Mintmobile.Com Switch upfront payment of $45 for 3 month plan equivalent to $15 per month required intro rate only then full price plan options available, taxes and fees, extra fee, full terms@mintmobile.com well, let's do a little update on Biden's brain. Joe Scarborough on his show is now saying that he was, quote, obviously wrong when he described the ex president as the best Biden ever. So now that we've seen Jake Tapper admit that when he was talking to Lara Trump he was just 100% wrong and she was 100% right when she was saying that he's obviously degraded. So. No, so. So Tapper has now admitted he was wrong and Joe Scarborough now says he was wrong. Although I think both of them say that they didn't see personal, specific problems with them, but they didn't have that much contact with him. I guess Scarborough did actually have a little more contact with them. But there's some thought that maybe Biden always waited until he was in better shape to contact him. Maybe. And then another update. Jake Tapper told Sam Harris he was on Sarah Maris's podcast. I guess that one of the reasons that Biden's aides were sort of blinded to the fact that Biden was doing so poorly is because he always seemed cognitively weak. Imagine this being your reason that you couldn't tell your boss was cognitively impaired because he was always cognitively weak. And this is what Jake said. He said they weren't sure what was going on because he was always kind of prone to some of this behavior, even when he was in fighting form. You know, long winded, pointless stories and forgetting names and such gaffes, lies, all those things. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, did we not just go through years of being told that Trump was the one who lies? And now, now after the fact, Jake is just sort of matter of factly stating that his aides probably couldn't tell when Biden was having a bad day because he always lied. And. And you and I are saying the same thing, right? Which is some version of, oh, we knew that he ran on the Fine People hoax. Of course, of course. He was the biggest liar we've ever had in that office, I think. Well, according to. I saw a Post by Doug McGregor that some kind of whistleblower has come forward about the autopen scandal. And I've heard some names involved with it, but I don't want to name them yet because I think it's premature. But apparently there are some names that would not be household names to most of you that had access to that thing and might have been the, the auto pen people separately. Talk about Go fuck yourself. Seriously, just go fuck yourself. Can you guys in the comments straighten out Tonkabat? Because you just crossed the line. You crossed that line pretty hard. All right. According to Nike, I saw this on a post by Unusual Whales. Nike says they're going to increase their prices on footwear because of the tariffs. So if you were going to pay between $100 and $150, you might get a $5 hike. While sneakers priced above 150 will see a $10 increase, to which I say, would anybody notice that? Do you think that there's anybody who is going to pay $150 for sneakers who would not buy them because they're 160? They say, oh, darn it. I thought these would cost 150, but it looks like they're 160. I don't know. To me, that doesn't seem like the end of the world. Remember all the warnings we were getting that the tariffs were gonna blast your, your prices and the economy was going to fail? I feel like they're going to sell the same amount of footwear. So they might be absorbing something, but they don't say. But then there's a story, the Washington Times, there's reporting that Target, Target stores thinks they can adapt and offset most of the tariff costs by reducing their reliance on China. So they're already working hard to make sure they don't have too much sourcing from China. So Target won't have at least ridiculously higher prices because of it. And we are at. Home Depot wasn't going to have much big, much higher prices. So we might, we might see story after story of big companies that figured out they were just going to absorb it or adjust it or something. So this would be the most surprising outcome if the Trump administration was completely right, that the tariffs got us what we wanted with minimal change in prices. Could be. It's entirely possible. I got to say I was skeptical because I didn't know what was going to happen. We've never been in this situation before, but it would be pretty amazing if Trump was right about this, that the retailers would just adjust or absorb it or find other sources if they tried hard enough. It looks like that's what's happened so far, but it's a little bit early. You probably heard that the House, it's not a law yet, but just the House passed the big beautiful bill. Now, I gotta say that I've never heard anybody brand a spending bill before. I think Trump's the first one who ever did that. And it's kind of genius that he's calling it the big beautiful bill because it would be easy to turn down a continuing resolution or some boring damn thing. But how do you say no to a big, beautiful bill? Well, anyway, so that's, that's best now. And then they say that this is the Wall Street Journal is reporting. So this is, this is the wording in the Wall Street Journal. They're talking about how it would increase the deficit by 2.7 trillion. And the Wall Street Journal says that figure was causing discomfort. Discomfort, they say, for some Republicans. As the national debt and bond yields climb, Republican leaders say that faster economic growth from Trump's policies would fill the gap and make it deficit neutral, a point that many economists dispute. Now, that's it. So the Wall Street Journal, which is sort of the premier financial reporting entity in the country, they, they do point out that the bill would add to the deficit. But you know what's missing? The part where the whole country crashes in on itself because the deficit is too big. There's something wrong with the way everybody's talking about this. And I saw a post on X from Data Republican, whose theory is that the reason that people are talking about it like it's no big deal, when it's the biggest deal, it's bigger than all the other deals. There's nothing as important as this. And we're racing toward a cliff to absolute disaster. And then the Wall Street Journal is like, yeah, you know, some, some economists dispute it. Really? That that's the best you can do is some economists dispute it and, well, you know, Trump says that growth will take care of it. No, it won't. Nobody thinks that. I. Well, nobody serious thinks that. So Data Republican has some theories that it's cultural and corruption. Now, I haven't seen the details of her argument, but she's digging into it. Harder to find out what's going on here, data wise, and we'll see what she comes up with. But the cultural part, I don't know exactly what that means, but I feel like the country has been trained, you know, the non economists and the non politicians, I think they've all been trained that kicking the can down the road always works because it always worked before. And we complain about it every time, but then they kick the can and we're okay, but at some point that definitely stops working. And we're at that point. So you'd expect that the news would, you know, kind of flexibly change toward, oh, no, we can't do this anymore. But it didn't. That would be the cultural part, I guess that as a culture, we've just decided it's not a problem, so we treat it like it's not, even though we are blithely heading toward the cliff. And then the corruption part is that the people who could change it, you know, let's say the military industrial complex, they like their money, so they're not going to change it. And everybody else has A piece of the pie if they're part of the, you know, part of the deep state or, you know, part of politics. So between corruption and the fact that we've been trained not to see it as a problem, we're blind to the biggest problem the country's had in my lifetime. So. So I thought that would be useful for me to solve this problem, I'm going to use a technique you've heard from me before. It's called the bad idea. Now, the bad idea is exactly that. I'm going to give you a bad idea for solving the deficit problem. You're of course going to notice, wait a minute. There's a problem with that bad idea, but it might make you think of a good idea because it's going to be out of the box. So let me just put it out there. It's a bad idea, but maybe it'll make you come up with the real good idea. All right, Grandpa's here.

Scott Adams (31:46)

Suppose, just suppose, the government issues a cryptocurrency. But if you issue, if you issue, if you issued a cryptocurrency that people could use to buy anything they want, well, that would be very inflationary. So that's no good, right? Everybody agrees. If, if you just added money, it doesn't matter if it's crypto or you printed money. If you're just adding money, that doesn't work because it's hugely inflationary. But suppose, just suppose that the money that's being added, I'll just give you one example. Suppose that if you were collecting interest on a T bill, you could optionally. And it would just be up to you, nobody would force you to do it. You could receive it in regular old dollars, just like you always did, or you could receive your interest in this new crypto. And let's say it's tied to the dollar, so it's not fluctuating that much. Now you might say, well, why would I ever take the crypto? And the answer is that it would have one purpose. You could only use it for one thing, which is paying federal taxes in the United States. It couldn't be used for anything else. So would that make the, the price of products at Target go up? No, because there wouldn't be any more money available to buy things at Target. It would be the same amount of money. It's just that you could only use this crypto. Now, suppose I said to you that this crypto would give you a 5% discount on your taxes. Now, you might be a person who has a T bill and you don't pay many taxes for whatever reasons, but you could say, all right, I'll take the crypto and then I'll just resell it to somebody who wants to pay their taxes, and they can get the 5% discount and, you know, I'll charge them a little extra, so you could easily exchange it. Then here's the fun part. Suppose that the one and only thing you can do with it is pay your taxes, but that once the government received your crypto payment in taxes, it would have to burn the crypto. It would never exist again because that would keep the government from just spending whatever extra money the system produced. Your taxes would be paid by the crypto, but the government would just not have access to it. It would just be burned. Being burned means in the digital world, it, it becomes not crypto anymore. It just turns into garbage, basically. Now, would that work? What it would do is it would pay down the debt. But in our current system, in our current system, if you paid down the debt a little bit, somebody would just increase spending. But with this, you would pay down the debt and it would just disappear. There would be nothing to allow them to increase spending. So it's a bad idea. But think in terms of adding crypto, but limiting it to a single purpose so it doesn't have a general inflationary possibility. All right, so that's all. You don't have to tell me it's a bad idea, because that's where I started. Well, most of you by now have seen the video of Trump doing what the fake news calls ambushing. So all the fake news got the memo to use the word ambush. The president of South Africa was in the very crowded room that dignitaries are greeted in the White House, and Trump was complaining about white genocide in South Africa. And I guess the president of South Africa was not convinced that it was happening. And so the president said, you know, turn down the lights. We'll show this video. And he showed some video evidence to make his case, and then he showed a bunch of, you know, printed out documents to make his case. And part of it was videos of what looked like hundreds or thousands of white crosses next to a. To the road that I think Trump called graves. Now, what's interesting is the president of South Africa said, where's that? I've never seen that. And. And Trump said, it's in South Africa. And how. How in the world could he not know that it existed? It's like, you know, in the United States, we've sort of all seen that picture. And so I said to myself, oh, and Elon Musk was there giving a death stare to the president because he's, you know, quite. He's quite invested, at least emotionally invested, in his old country. And part of it was showing the video of some large gathering, political gathering in South Africa where the black gatherers were singing Kill the Bores, which would be the white people. And so I said to myself, I wonder if there's another side to this argument. So I went to Grok, and I asked Grok, because it was aware of the event, if the argument that Trump was making was valid. And Grok said, nope. Now, I'm not saying that. All right? So what I'm telling you is that Grok said, it's all debunked. Now, here are a few things I said. You know, all those white crosses, those don't exist. They did exist for a specific protest, but it actually wouldn't be that surprising that the president of the country doesn't know they exist, because he literally said, where's that? And he looked like he wasn't lying. Like he literally didn't even know what that was about. That doesn't exist, according to Grok. Now, remember, I'm making. I'm telling you, Grok's argument. What I'm not doing is making my own argument, right? So you got to make that distinction. I'll tell you my own argument when I'm. When I do this. Then Grok said that that Kill the Boars song was A free speech song. I guess the courts have decided it was just free speech and that it didn't mean kill any individuals. It was about killing the system and it was a historical song about killing the old apartheid system. Do you believe that? That's what Grok says? Again, this is not me saying it. That's what Grok says. And then what else is said? Then there was one video that Trump showed with, they showed some violence and Grok said, that's not even South Africa, that's from the Congo. To which I said, oh, really? I don't know. Again, it's just groxing. And then it said that the alleged murders of white farmers was not real, that it's fake. And again, this is not me. Don't blame me. I'm telling you what Gro said. And here's what Grok said, that it's true that white farmers, their farms were being attacked and they were being murdered. But it said it wasn't for political reasons, it was just regular crime in a country where there's just tons of crime and murder, and that nobody was taking over those farms, they were just stealing stuff and killing the families. So it wasn't so much a political act, it was just crime. And it was a little bit easier to do the crime in a remote farmhouse because there was nobody around to stop them from doing it. And then it said that far more black citizens of South Africa are getting murdered as a raw number compared to the tiny, tiny number of white South Africans that are also being murdered. So according to Grok, there's no such thing as some unusually large number of white South Africans being murdered, not for political reasons, etc. Then there was a question of there's some new rule that says that the black South Africans, or the government, I guess, can take from the white South Africans their property, but they prefer to buy it if they can't buy it. The law allows that under certain conditions, they can just take it and not pay anything. But according to Grok, that's never happened. Do you believe that? That it's never happened? It's just that it could happen and it would be constitutional because the law allows it. So let me give you my opinion. My opinion is if you live in a country where on a regular basis, a large political party, apparently it's like the number three party, it's not the leading in power party, when they get together and they say things like, kill the boars, you should get out of that country as soon as possible. Because even if they're thinking about it being the system and it's a historical song. You don't want to live in a country where people are saying that it's okay to sing that. You don't need the law to tell you that they can or can't. If you're in a country where they're singing kill the people who are you? You should start packing up right away. That's my advice. Number two, if you live in a country where there is a law that says we're going to, you know, buy your property because we don't think that it should be belonging to white people, and if we can't make an agreement to buy it, well, we've got this backup plan where we can just take it for nothing. If you live in a country with that as one of your laws, you should get out of that country as soon as possible because nothing good is going to happen. Nothing good is going to happen. And if you live in a country where there's so much violence that the argument against the white genocide is, well, there's no white genocide, look how many black people are being killed by just other black people. You should get out of that country right away. Because whatever it is that's causing all these people to be killed, be they black or be they white, is way too many. Like, way, way too many. Run. Get out of that country. And that's what I say. So what you need to know is that the news is saying it was mostly fake news and Trump was ambushing him. What you need to know is that Grok, which is actually ironically created by Elon Musk, says not so much. You have to see the other side of this. And then what you really need to know is that everything about that situation looks like trouble brewing. Trouble brewing. I would get out of there if I could. So that's my advice.

Anyway, according to the publication called the Atlantic, which is really just a joke publication because it's such a propaganda rag that it's hard to even imagine it as a serious publication. But one of the articles big headline is the Decline and Fall of Elon Musk. The Decline and fall of Elon Musk. Now, I think they mean that he's less involved with Doge and the government. But that was the plan. The plan is that right about now he would be removing himself from Doge and the government, which he did. And then you look at how's Tesla doing, the stock is like totally recovered and he's on the verge of unleashing robots for what could be the largest product launch of all time. And that's not even counting the auto, you know, the self driving auto cabs. So I would say that Elon Musk is on the border of taking his current success and fame and multiplying it by a thousand. And I don't know what would stop him because he's got a pretty solid plan. Build robots, auto cabs. Anyway, so that's just propaganda. Apparently Trump told some European leaders that he thinks Putin thinks that he's winning the war. Meaning Putin thinks he's winning the war and isn't ready for peace. Now, who told you that first? I did. I've been telling you for a while. It really looks to me like Putin is not looking for peace whatsoever. And apparently Trump has that opinion at the moment too. So he's sorry. Trump is shifted from talking about sanctions to proposing some lower level talks, including the Vatican, which is funny because it just, it just offloads. It offloads the failure to the Vatican so that the Pope can be responsible for whatever doesn't happen. Well, but here's my take. What the hell are you going to do? Are we going to weigh in and start refunding Ukraine? Like that would work and then, you know, Ukraine would win the war? I don't think we're going to do that. Is Europe going to fund them so they can win the war? I don't think they can. Are we going to give them enough drones and robots that they don't need any humans and they can hold off the entire Russian army? Well, I don't know if we're right at that point yet. Maybe are we going to let Ukraine fall? Because it looks like Putin's just going to chew on it until he gets everything he wants. So my question is, what options do we really have? I'm pretty sure that even the worst sanctions wouldn't change Putin's mind if he thinks he's winning that war. I think he would just figure out a way around the sanctions. So do we have any options? I can't think of Any. So I guess Ukraine will just get ground down and Putin will have his way and control Ukraine. Does it look like that's what's going to happen? Yeah, well, I've got no idea how you can do anything except lose Ukraine at this point. No idea. Well, according to the Associated Press, Canada is in talks with the US about joining its so called Golden Dome. That would be our missile defense system. Because it wouldn't make a lot of sense for Canada to build its own missile defense if it could just pay a little. Not a little, but it could pay to be part of our defense system that we're building. So I do like the fact that Carney is just sort of a good businessman and he's just, well, why would we build it ourselves? It would just make more sense to partner now. Do you remember when it wasn't long ago when the fake news was telling you that all the other countries were not going to be able to deal with the United States because we'd insulted them and you know, they're all mad and then they'll never do business with Trump and then Trump goes to the Middle east and he's treated like a God king and then he has one meeting with Carney and they're just best friends and Carney wants to be part of our missile defense to presumably pay for it. But I was telling you the whole time that it's a transactional world. If Trump offers value to other countries, those other countries will treat him with the utmost respect. That's it. That's the whole story. Nobody's getting insulted. And if they did, it wouldn't last. You know, they'd get over it right away if they had some economic reason. So there's another example of that. According to the New York Post, Syria with its new leader is talking about joining the Abraham Accords and normalizing relationship with Israel. Do you think there are any catches to that? Oh, yes, there are. They want assurances that Israel would stop bombing Syria. I don't know if they're going to get that. They want Israel to stop fomenting sectarian divisions. I don't know what they're doing there, but if it's good for Israel, they're not going to stop doing it. And they want to reach a negotiated arrangement regarding the Golan Heights. Well, I think Israel already has what they want. Right. It's not like they're going to give a little bit of the Golan Heights back to Syria. So I think that this is another one of those fake peace offerings where the head of Syria is like, oh, yeah, totally. We want to be your best friends. Oh, we'll just take the Golan Heights back. You know, we'll negotiate it. Of course, we're not animals, so I don't, I don't think these look like pretty big problems. I don't know if they can negotiate those away, but maybe here's, here's some news. France has a new laser rifle that can melt, like, that's small enough that a one soldier can hold it like a bazooka. And it can melt electronics from 500ft away and doesn't make any noise. So the only noise you'd hear is the electronics burning from 500ft away. Now, if it's small enough that a soldier can carry it, I would not want to be on the other side of that laser because if it can make electronics catch on fire, it could make your head catch on fire pretty quickly. So that's scary. According to the Daily Mail, Kim Jong Un, North Korea is not happy about the launch he attended of their new 5,000 ton North Korean warship because it launched and immediately capsized. Imagine being the head of North Korea and you know, these military things, these rocket launches and these, you know, ship launches are like a gigantic part of your national ego. And he attends it. And the thing, they launch it and it just capsizes. So he watched in horror as his 5,000 ton ship was severely damaged. I think they could figure out a way to write it because it didn't sink. It just turned sideways. I think it's still floating. So we'll see if they can salvage that. But that's. Could you imagine being the, whoever was in charge of launching that thing? You know, you're, you're standing next to the Dear Leader because, you know, you had an important job. You're the one who was in charge of making sure this thing got built and launched. And the Kim Jong Un is like right next to you, shoulder to shoulder, and you're like, man, this is the best, best day of my career. I could get, you know, extra food rations based on this. I'm really killing it. And then your, your ship gets launched and it just turns sideways in the water and you're standing right, right next to Kim Jong Un. That would be the scariest thing that could ever happen to a person. Like, what the hell would you say? Oh, it's okay, boss, I'll get it next time. I'll get it next time. All right. So I saw Dom Luker was reporting that we learned from the Diddy trial that diddy had ecstasy pills that were printed with a face of Obama on them and there were red Obamas, green Obamas and orange Obamas and blue Obamas. But you could take these pills if you went to one of his freak offs. Okay. Do you think Obama was in any way implicated in any of that or they just thought it was funny to put his face on their ecstasy pills? I don't know. I haven't seen any indication Obama is connected to any of that. But. But he's connected to the pills. All right, that's all I got for today. Oh, there's a good picture there in the comments. I'm going to say a few words to the locals people privately and the rest of you, thanks for joining. I will see you tomorrow same time, same place and hope you enjoyed it. All right, locals coming at you in 30 seconds. If everything works the way it's.
