Well, let's see what happens today. Coming to you from my hospital bed. Good morning, everybody. Stream on in here. I think I'll have breakfast coming in half an hour or so, so we got a little bit of time to catch up on the news. You want to catch up on the news? Well, I think we should do the simultaneous sip. There might not be coffee involved, but I do have the simultaneous sip this morning. Yeah, I think I got the coif mastered. Well, we'll see. Good morning, Marcella, Eric, Rami. Well, you're all very fast. Coughing with Scott Adams was kind of funny, you have to admit. That was kind of funny. Yeah. Greg Biffle. I never heard of Greg Biffle. Is that somebody you knew? Did you all. Had you all heard the name Greg Biffle before? That's got to be pretty bad to go down in your plane and know you got your whole family with you. That's got to be about the worst way to go. Good morning. Come on in here. All right. Well, are you ready? It won't be coffee in my case, because I don't have breakfast yet, but. Well, thank you. Yep. He was a hero. Used his helicopter to help flood victims. That is correct. Michael is here. Finally. Similar family helicopter. I don't know. All right, you ready? If you'd like to enjoy the simultaneous set, all you need is get ready A cup or mugger, a glass of tanker, chalice or stein, a canteen, sugar flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee, but I'm happy. Water. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine here today, the thing that makes everything better. It's called simultaneous sip. It happens. Now, That's a pretty good sip. That was a good sip. Well, in theory, today will be my last day in the hospital, so they might watch me for one more day because the. The cough was something they hadn't mastered. But on the other hand. On the other hand, since I seem to have that mastered, maybe. Maybe tonight. I don't know. You want to check out the news? Let's check out the news. So, the Epstein files are going to be released today. Do you believe that that will turn up any. Anything new or interesting? You did miss a sponge bath. I think that was at midnight. Success lessons. Good. Your success lessons were great. Good to hear. All right. I'm going to predict that the Epstein story might be probably underwhelming. What do you think? Probably underwhelming. So Thomas Massey's been fighting hard to turn that into A law. So I guess there's a law now to release all the Epstein files. The Epstein Files Transparency act is now the law. So. But something, I don't know, it just doesn't feel like we're going to learn anything. We might. Might be the. Might be the biggest story in the whole world, but we'll see. So did anybody watch the video from the Turning Point USA speeches? I don't know what to think about all this. So they're now like what, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. So there are about six conservative stars who have some kind of Charlie Kirk, Turning Point usa, Candace Owens kind of dust up. And some of it's about Israel and some of it's about Candace and some of it's about Charlie Kirk and some of it's about the Turning Point USA staff. Yeah. So we got so the players. I've been kind of ignoring this because, I don't know, it's not really world news, but so Ben Shapiro, I guess he's going hard at the people who are not going hard at Kansas and Tucker. So are there sides? Is Tucker on the side, whereas Tucker on his own? So let's see. Candace Owens has some conspiracy theories about who might been involved in Charlie Kirk's death. And I think, as you know, it involves everything from Israel to the staff to his wife to Egypt or at least Egyptian plagues. None of it really. None of it really lines up. But I guess, I guess Ben Shapiro's point is that if you're not going to speak out against it, you're not doing enough. So I'm just watching this one. Are any of you taking sides with any of the Turning Point USA stuff or are you just sort of watching it? I feel like. I feel like nobody is covering themselves with glory, but I'll be interested if anything comes of it. So. All right, well, let's, let's leave that story that, that was more about the individuals involved, if anything. Oh, Tucker isn't that interesting. The story has two Tuckers in it. One is Tucker Carlson and the other is the Brigitte. Brigitte Macron. Two Tuckers. No, I'm just kidding. Brigitte Macron is not a Tucker. Oh, and then Nick Fuentes gets thrown in there too. Yeah. Anyway, I feel like taking sides is a really bad strategy and I frankly don't have a side. You know, I think they all have a. They all have a right to their opinions, no matter how wacky or wrong or inappropriate. I'm not sure I have a obligation to speak out against them, but. But I, you know, I can say I don't. I don't strongly agree with any of them because I have my own opinions. They have their opinions. I have my opinions. So I don't feel a need to agree or disagree or decide who Is it a conspiracy theory or not Turning Point, Hunger Games. Anyway, so enough about that. So yesterday's news, I saw a bunch of conservative people get worked up because Trump signed a, what do you say, Executive order to reschedule weed. But people took that. It looked like, to me, it looked like people misinterpreted it as making weed legal at the federal level. But that did not happen. It was just rescheduled from A. From A1 to A3, which means they can use it for medical use. And I saw a bunch of people complaining about that. And I thought to myself, how can you complain about medical use, medical use? I totally understand why some people would be against weed being legalized for casual use. I mean, there's an argument on both sides of that, you know, which side I'm on. But medical, really, it's one of the most medically useful substances in the world, I think. So I am in favor of rescheduling it for medical use at the federal level. That still keeps it illegal federally. So if parents want to use that as their argument for keeping their kids off it, that would be up to them. So is it true that the Brown University shooter is connected, is the same guy who shot the MIT professor? It appears that they have now proven there's some connection between the two. So that's surprising. I bet against that. I think my instincts have been wanted, but I did not believe when it was first suggested that the MIT professor killing and the Brown University professor killing were related. But we still don't know why, right? I don't think we know why. And I usually don't cover the individual crime stuff, But this one might be. Might get more interesting. I don't think it's an Iranian plot. That's what we thought it might be. All right, here's the. Here's the best story of the day. How many of you have for the last several years had to defend Trump when he called the Georgia. Was it the Secretary of state or the governor? I forget. And he told him he want. He wanted to see if he could find votes. Do you remember that story? So that was the 2020 election in which Trump narrowly lost. So he called Georgia and said, hey, you know, you only need to find so many votes, and it would reverse the thing. And was he not My brain isn't working too well. Was Trump impeached for that or nearly impeached for asking to find the votes? Well, guess what? According to the Federalists and others, apparently they could have found the votes because there were 303, 315,000 early votes in the 2020 election that were now certified. They didn't have the proper signatures, and they had not certified that the, I guess the tabulators were zeroed out before they started. So if you haven't, if you haven't certified that there were zero down, there's actually no way to know what the actual vote was. So Georgia Kemp. Yes, it was Kemp. So we can. According to actual court case, the state attorney admits that they can't tell who voted. Is that incredible? So Trump was right. There's no record of the tabulators being set to zero, and they don't have the proper signatures in almost all of the sites. Now, if you don't think that's more than a technical problem, apparently, and the Federal Federalist talks about this, I guess in Montana, they had the same problem and they did, in fact, determine that the final vote count was, was wrong. So this, this problem of not having the tabulators cleared before you start with a new thing, if you don't clear them, you don't know what the vote was. So I, I cheekily. Cheekily, I say I posted on Access Morning that they found the votes. They found them. They found the votes. So I don't know if that would have been enough to change the election, but it does tell me that all of these, you know, all of these accusations might have been a little bit closer than anybody thought. Lost by 7 million. Well, but not if we're talking about the state or, or. Yeah, So it was a Raffson Burger, not Kemp. Okay, so Raffsenberger was the Secretary of State for Georgia Klubian, but of all things. Of all things. So the, yeah, the January Sixers have been vindicated. Trump always emphasized signatures. Yep. Trump was right. So, you know, do you remember how many times I said that everything in the country is broken except the elections, that the elections are pristine? And I always said it, I always said it sarcastically, that we have been, we as citizens had been asked to believe that absolutely everything in our environment was corrupt except this one thing? Well, it turns out now, of course, the reason I said that is because I knew that everything was corrupt. And now we know. Now, corrupt might imply also just incompetent. But what we don't know, what we don't know is who won the election. So we do not have a system that can reliably tell us who won. Incredible. So there's an update on the SNAP fraud in Minnesota. So apparently the, the person in charge of making sure that the SNAP money, that's the food cent money, got to the right people, worked at home and had never had a job like this. So of course it's being called a DEI situation. I don't know if it's a DEI situation but you have to assume that if things go wrong and it's a DEI environment, somebody's going to say it's DEI. So apparently there was 174% surge in benefits between 2020 and 2021. And the person in charge falsely claimed that fraud was nearly non existent by using other fake data. So they tried to. They tried to justify the fraudulent payments by using fraudulent data. And an audit. State audit. Cardamom. I read this on the Amuse account on X. So have you seen the pattern yet that 100% of the time that a Democrat run a government funded thing is audited, it turns out to be fraudulent or so corrupt that you can't tell what what happened 100% of the time. So what kind of state audit kicks in at this point? Do they only audit when somebody asks them to in a court case or something? So do how many of you remember? This will really test your memory. How many of you remember that I've said that I can't understand how the government deficits could possibly be so big unless there was massive fraud. Well, it turns out that the fraud is in the trillions. There probably is literally a trillion dollars of fraud every year. A trillion. A trillion dollars of fraud every year. Because that's the only way the numbers made sense to me. Well, I don't know if I don't know about the Obama part, but that's funny. All right, so I'm going to check, I'm going to check some DMS that came to me because they're indications of the News today. So Mr. Solomon, I would with those eyes. I was catching up on the Candace Owen stuff. She's got some new crazy looking guy. Come on, let's go to my. Really. All right people, let's go to. There's a story about Zoran Mamdami's director of appointments back in 2016 wrote somewhere it's important that white people feel defeated. JD Vance is commenting on that. Can you believe that in 2016 you could say in public it's important that white people feel defeated. Okay. By the way, J.D. vance said something nice about me yesterday on social media. He was wishing me well. He said I'm one of the good ones. Well, I don't know. Let's see. I guess a new year celebrations have been canceled in Australia, France and Germany because it's going to be too dangerous because of terrorists. You know, I wondered when that would happen. Have you been surprised that there aren't more terrorist attacks in large gatherings? I feel like we now expect it to happen. Let's see, there's some Somalia bad behavior. See, Somalia's entire GDP is 13 billion and the exposure to Somali fraud in One state is 18 billion. Chip Roy, there's postly on that. So there's more Somalia related fraud in Minnesota then is bigger than the entire GDP of Somalia. So good job there, Somalia. All right, let's see what else we got. Then. Oh, just did. You know, according to the massive amount of account that just 27 minutes of daily meditation can grow your brain matter. I'm going to say, I don't know if I believe that 27 minutes of daily meditation grows your gray matter. Maybe. See and Minnesota, according to the End Wokeness account, the Minnesota Attorney general, Ellison, he blames the high car thefts in his state on Kia and Hyundai being too easy to steal. That's the problem. Too easy to steal. Hakeem Jeffries being bad. So Trump assigned a major executive order that reshapes US Space policy. I guess we want to get to the moon by 2028, have nuclear power up there and missile defense and who knows, huh? So Trump has threatened to seize more Venezuelan tankers. They could end up back in one of our harbors, he says. So I guess the Venezuelans are sending their military to accompany their tankers that Trump has said he would block. I don't think the Venezuelan navy wants to take on our navy, but we'll see. Oh yeah, I forgot about Tucker. No, we won't talk about him today. Dr. Singularity says all cancers will be curable by the early2030s. There's been an enormous amount of breakthroughs in the last. Well, I would say can you do that a little bit faster? Apparently cannabis compounds show promise against one of the deadliest cancers. Not my type. Wow. So somebody, somebody believes that we're going to war with Venezuela because Trump is on the Epstein list. I don't think it's that. But why is it you think we're going to war with Venezuela? It feels like there might be several different possible reasons, and I'm not sure One of them would be, you know, to control our hemisphere and get rid of the narco terrorists and stuff. But I'm not even sure there's even some dispute whether Venezuela is anything they say it is. Good morning. Good morning. So. Oh, let me give you an update on me. So I'm done with all of my treatments, you know, my five radiation treatments. Radiation, yeah, whatever it is. So now I wait. So it could be about two weeks before I see if I get any feeling back in my lower body. But my doctor stopped by yesterday, day before, and did tell me that there's almost no chance of that happening. However, a different doctor had a slightly higher. Slightly higher optimism, but not very high. So I wait two weeks to see if any of the treatments I got will make any difference to my body. Best case scenario, if it did work, I don't know if it would give me full, you know, ability to walk, but it might give me some feeling back, and I don't even know if that would be better or worse, frankly. All right, so John Federman attended a classified briefing and confirmed the Trump administration noticed exactly who is on those drug boats. And yet the Democrats are defending the drug boats because it's on the other side from Trump. All right, what else is going on? Oh, so the Kennedy center. The board voted unanimous Billy Thad Trump's name to the iconic DC Venue. I thought there was some dispute about that. This isn't Breitbart News. So is it true that the Kennedy center will be renamed the Kennedy Trump Center? I. I feel like that's not. Not necessarily confirmed. So I guess Jake Tapper and CNN had this. Some doctor in a white coat. Come on. This is Breitbart News is reporting this. So Breitbart is saying Jake Tapper booked a guy in a lab coat because he tweeted that Trump quote, looks unwell during his speech on Wednesday and then spent an entire segment gravely talking how the president must be dying because he has a, quote, manic cadence. Well, we'll see. James Carville apparently said that Charlie Kirk was not a pimple on Rob Reiner's. I'm guessing the last word there is ass. All right. James Carville. Oh, not the Kennedy Trump center, but the. They want to call it maybe the Trumpet Kennedy Center. Come in. Got company. Good morning. I. I'm on a live stream right now. Okay. All right, good night. Thank you for everything. Okay. Do you need me to sign off or.
- [30:11]
B
No, I'm just gonna finish report. Is there anything you need right now?
- [30:17]
A
No. Do I Have a breakfast coming?

A
I don't know where my call light is. It's been moved.
- [30:30]
B
Oh, here. I'm so sorry. I just got here.

A
Okay. My call light was not available. Yes. Okay.
- [30:36]
B
Just let me know what you need. Okay.
- [30:38]
A
All right, so maybe in. Maybe in 20 minutes. All right. The staff here is very good, so we'll play around for another 20 minutes. All right. Checking out the news. Trump defies odds achieves economic triple. Like, well, so you heard the news about inflation, right? The inflation was unusually low, but it turns out it's probably just the numbers are wrong. I don't believe any of the. Yeah, I don't believe any of the economic numbers. Don't believe any of the economic numbers. All right, let me check. Oh, and Gregorian's feed. Owen, what do you got going, by the way? You should. You should follow Owen Gregorian if you like to see stories that I like to see. All right. I guess when Trump did his speech that only Fox News showed the graphics, the others didn't show the graphics. CNN is forced to admit inflation is coming down, but. Well, I don't know. Are they forced to admit that? Yeah, I just don't believe any of the. Any of the inflation numbers. I think they omitted some key data, so they're proposing renaming it to the Trump Kennedy Center. Yeah, so I guess the Kennedy center is not. It's not yet renamed, but it is proposed. And let's see. Two Haitian migrants in Massachusetts are accused of more SNAP scam. The SNAP program was just the biggest scam. Amazing. Amazon is reportedly in talks, according to TechCrunch, to invest 10 billion in open AI. Huh. It would use the AI Labs. Did you see the story? I don't have it in front of me, but apparently one of the moats that OpenAI had is software. Not OpenAI. Nvidia. So Nvidia, you know, of course, makes the AI chips. But some said that although the chips could be matched by other companies, they had a software moat that would be nearly impossible to match. And I think Google just matched it, which would make the value of Nvidia plunge, which hasn't happened yet. But I think it. I think it lost a few points. What does Nvidia look like to go up or down? So I saw one analyst say that the real thing that. That supported Nvidia's value is that you couldn't match the software, but you could match, you know, Potentially you could match the hardware, but apparently Google made a breakthrough that would allow them to match the software. Yeah, I don't believe the core CPI numbers. Yeah, I just. I just don't live. Hey, Sergio. Good to see you, Sergio. All right. Inflation unexpectedly tumbles to 2.7. Or some say 2.6. Yeah, well, it's not getting worse, but I don't believe, I don't believe we can even track those numbers at that level of granularity. Would you believe, according to Spruj Coffee, that the study finds like a causal link between filtered coffee and lower HbA1C levels? Okay, that's probably a good thing. Oh, wow. A North Korean infiltrator was caught working on Amazon's IT department because they could somehow track the lag between keystrokes and how long it took to get to get to where it needed to go, according to Tom's hardware. Okay. Chinese brain implant lets paralyzed man control devices with his mind. Huh. Maybe I'll get that. Am I, am I a candidate for the neural link? Do you think I can get a brain implant and then turn into a robot because I'm paralyzed below the waist? That's an actual possibility, isn't it? So, Chinese brain implant lets paralyze man control devices with his mind. Oh, I am so good. I'm so going to turn into a robot. All right, here's my new plan. I'm going to get brain implant, whether it's neuralink or something else. And then I will get a robot body and I will rebuild myself using my human brain. But a robot body? Apparently that is actually something I can do. Wow. Let's see. Did you know, according to Psy Post Eric Dolan that women are more accurate than men at detecting signs of sickness and faces? Well, are they more accurate or do they care? Maybe the men don't care, but I believe it. I would believe a mother would have to be better at it. The Trump administration. According to the New York Post, the Trump administration is going to probe Colorado after 221 dead people received federal housing assistance. Now have I ever mentioned that 100% of government entities that involve Democrats and money and a non functional audit system, every one of them is corrupt. Every one of them. I don't believe there is an exception. A meta analysis according to the side Post also Eric Dolan. It says that if you watch too many Tik Tok and Instagram reels, it's linked to poor cognitive and mental health. Doesn't surprise me. I am surprised. Well, we'll see. If it happens. But I am surprised that we reached a deal with TikTok. Yeah, Escape from Prisoner Island. We'll see. So I've got a. I've got an appointment phone appointment with my radiologist in two weeks actually the end of the month. And if I don't have any, if I don't have any feeling in my lower body it would mean the radiation did not work. But there's a non zero chance that I'll have some feeling in my lower body by then. I don't know if that'll make things better or worse for me. Honestly it probably would be worse if I had a little bit of feeling in my lower body but I couldn't, you know, I couldn't walk. If you can't walk you might as well just leave the lower body up to other people. So that's my current plan is if I don't get my, if I get no control of my lower body back and that was the whole point of the radiation to see if I could do it. I am going to try to still going to try the PLU victo though. But if I can't get any of that control back then I have to delegate my lower body to other people. So I would be control of my body from my chest up because that all works fine. But for my from my belly button down I would have to pay other people to keep it alive. And that's a. That's a weird kind of life. So we'll see if that's worth doing. A hack reveals a a 16Z backed phone farm flooding tick tock with AI influencers. Yeah, I never trusted Tick Tock. More news about Minnesota fraud. Of course. Trump Media is merging with a nuclear fusion startup. What? So the parent company of Truth Social announced a merger with this technology company ta a nuclear fusion startup in a deal value. Why would, why would that make sense? The plan to create the world's first utility scale fusion power plant. Really? So it's intended to create electricity through fusion at 50 billion watts with construction of the site beginning next year. Really? They think they can build a fusion site next year and they will make additional ones with an expected output of blah blah blah watts. Huh. So under the deal. This is weird. Trump Media could provide a whole a few hundred million in cash. So Devin Nunes who's the CEO of Trump Media said the merger represents a continuation of Trump Media's America first principles. I'll be damned. Does it make sense that a media company would merge with a fusion company? Well, let's Say the commerce secretary says that next year will be the big one for the economy. Do you believe that? Do you believe that 26. 2026 we will be, you know, well, staged for the economy? I believe that might be true. ZME science is asking, does music training really make children smarter? What do you think? Do you think music training makes kids smarter? Or is it the smart kids who take music? Because it could work either way. But according to this study, music lessons are. Oh, music lessons are less likely to make children smarter, but more likely to reveal the curiosity and discipline they already have. All right, okay. I believe that. So music doesn't make you smarter, but it might. Yeah. So if you are not believing science is real, there's more evidence of that. Diffusion of media and energy. Oh, here's a good one. Fox News is reporting the federal watchdog urges white men to report possible workplace discrimination. I guess JD Vance is boosting that message. What do you think? Do you think white men will be doing a bunch of discrimination cases? Can you imagine how many legal disputes there would be if white men started, you know, going against dei? Wow. Oh, here's, this is interesting. So according to Reclaim the net, the US suspends 41 billion dollar tech deal with the UK over online censorship laws. Ah. So I wondered if the, if the US Would get tough on that. So I've not been ever comfortable with the idea that Europe would decide if what, what kind of censorship to put on U.S. companies. But they were trying to censor the U.S. companies like, like X. And it looks like the government is going to be backing the US Companies. Good. You know, that would not have happened under Biden. Under Biden, Europe would have basically shut down U. S Company social media unless it, unless it did what Europe wanted them to do. Looks like the Trump administration is saying no, thanks. Well, according to Science Alert, cheese is linked to lower dementia risk in a 25 year study. Did you know that if you eat enough cheese, it will lower your risk of dementia? How many of you believe that's true? I wonder if this study was done by big cheese. Probably. Yeah, probably. Report Pacific Bell too late. Yeah, Crocker bank and Pacific Bell. I would sue them both if I were poor and healthy and young. And the statute of limitations had not run out. Wait, is there a statute of limitations on civil suits? How many lawyers are watching? All right, question for lawyers. Lawyer question. Is there a statute of limitation for civil suits or is that only for criminal stuff? Now why don't I know that? Seems like I should know that. So tell me Tell me if you're a lawyer and then give me your answer. Statute of limitation for civil yes or no. I'm not going to sue anybody, but. Don't believe it. Yep, fermented food. You know, Wisconsin stuffy American cheese is not like other cheese. Never met a mouse with dementia. Yep, that's true. You've never met a mouse as dementia. I call that proof. All right, here we go. According to the conversation, microdosing cannabis pauses Alzheimer's decline in unprecedented trial. Do you believe that? Do you believe that microdosing cannabis slows down dementia? Well, Alzheimer's. Well, we'll see. My brain will last forever. You know, the weirdest thing about being in the hospital is that I went cold turkey on marijuana, obviously. So that for a week or so, I completely am off marijuana. And I haven't really noticed, you know, because you usually drugged up on painkillers anyway. At the moment, I have some baseline morphine, but I've reduced my. Reduced my painkillers substantially, which might mean the radiation worked, at least to decrease pain. I don't know yet. It's too. Too early. Velveeta. All right, what else? China made some breakthrough in EV batteries. Okay, there are a lot of stories about battery breakthroughs, but until I see it in a Tesla, I don't believe it. What? According to Tech Explorer, there's a new analog computing method this slashes AI training energy use. All right, so how many of you remember that when Nvidia first know burst on the scene as a AI monster that I invested in in Nvidia. Hold on just a second. Hello. Hi. Oh, my breakfast is here.
- [50:12]
B
Is it okay if I set it down behind your.
- [50:14]
A
Do you have room?
- [50:15]
B
Yes, there's room.
- [50:16]
A
Okay, so it's time for breakfast, people. I. I want to eat breakfast in front of you because it might be a messy affair. So I'm going to sign off now. Thank you, everybody, and we'll keep you updated. I might stream again because I have nothing else to do today. Today I have no treatments. It's just waiting to see if I'm able to be dismissed. So I'm likely to be a little bit bored later today, but for now, thanks for joining. Coffee with Scott Adams. So we'll see what happens tomorrow. I don't really know. All right, ending the stream. You guys have a great day. Sam.
