Chapter 1: What is the highlight of Coffee with Scott Adams?
We're going to have a show for the ages. Or not. Here we go. Just want to see your comments. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and it's the best thing that ever happened to you.
But if you want to take it up to levels that no one can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a stein, a canteen 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 of the dopamine. Anything makes everything better.
It's called a simultaneous sip. And it happens now. Good. Well, I got to warn you that I'm so tired I've been hallucinating. And there's a non-zero possibility that I will actually fall asleep during the show. And I mean that seriously. So if you see me fall asleep, you don't need to call 911. I'm just really, really tired.
And if I start hallucinating or talking like Joe Biden talking to special counsel Herr, don't worry about that either. I just need a nap. So usually on Saturday, Owen Gregorian does his spaces event after I'm done, but he's got a conflict. So he'll be doing that on Sunday. So if you're looking for these spaces after the show, it'll be on Sunday, not Saturday this week. All right.
Well, let's check the world of science. MIT says it no longer stands behind a student's AI research paper. So some student, an economics graduate who is no longer with MIT, did this paper that got a lot of attention because he said that AI had been used in the material science lab and led to all kinds of gains and discoveries, but the scientists who used it were sad that it worked.
Turns out none of that was true and wasn't based on any science at all. It was completely made up, apparently, because there were no sources. And the author of the paper is no longer at MIT. So there's that. In case you were worried that Trump wasn't doing anything, he's insulting Taylor Swift. So Trump posted on Truth, has anyone noticed that since I said I hate Taylor Swift, she's no longer hot?

Chapter 2: What are Scott Adams' thoughts on Trump's comments about celebrities?
which caused Bill Maher and other people to be trying to sort out, wait, does he mean she's no longer attractive hot or her career is no longer zooming? It doesn't matter. It's funny either way. The fact that Trump would spend one second on this particular topic is once again just hilarious. I can't get enough of that.
But he also had some words for Bruce Springsteen, because Springsteen was doing a concert in another country, and he was criticizing Trump. He says that the Truth Social, which was a long, long one, He said that Springsteen is dumb as a rock. And, oh, my God, I was hallucinating when I wrote down this note. I was going to read the sentence, but the sentence doesn't make any sense at all.
Oh, my God. This did out prune of a rocker. Okay, that's definitely not what he said. His skin is all atrophied. Now, that part he did say. I think it's so funny that Trump goes after a political opponent by talking about his skin being atrophied. That's pretty good.
Anyway, Daily Mail is reporting that there's going to be, possibly, there's a bill being introduced by a Republican from Ohio, Warren Davidson, the Trump Derangement Syndrome Research Act. And the bill is to try to get some research done into the phenomenon of Trump derangement syndrome so that we can understand the causes and maybe the solution.
Chapter 3: What is the Trump Derangement Syndrome Research Act?
Well, here's one of those things where maybe you should just ask Scott. Scott, what do you think is the cause of TDS? I've got the answer to that. It's fake news. If he removed the fake news, do you think there would be any TDS? No, there wouldn't. It is entirely a phenomenon of fake news, which then gets into social media as well.
But you don't need to study this, Representative Davidson, although I think it's hilarious that you proposed it. All right. And they say it won't cost taxpayers a dime. Good. Well, Netflix has unleashed, according to interesting engineering, And AI powered and bind role ads. So the AI will determine your mood somehow, which is weird and eerie.
And it will push ads to you based on your, I guess, your personality and how they think you feel that day. I don't know how they figured that out, but. SAI will be doing it. So did you have any questions about TDS? Of course, it's obvious that the news coverage is what caused TDS. And if you weren't convinced of that, then why does Netflix think it can manipulate you by their ads.
It's the same thing. If you're a captive audience and you're staring at a screen, they can make some percentage of you do just about anything, including buying products and going crazy. Well, the Border Patrol saw a 44% spike in applications after Trump got elected. The Post Millennial is reporting on this. But here's the part that is not funny, but it's funny. Can we agree on that?
Chapter 4: How is Netflix using AI in advertising?
So the next thing I tell you is not funny at all. There's nothing funny about it, except it's kind of funny. So we're going to do some contrast. The contrast is that when Trump is the president, there's a 44% spike in applications for the Border Patrol. But apparently under Biden, the morale of the Border Patrol was so bad that they actually hired something called a suicidologist. In 2021.
So under Trump, people are scrambling to try to get jobs. And under Biden, they were trying to keep them alive so that they didn't hate their jobs so much they would kill themselves. There's nothing funny about that. Stop laughing. There's nothing funny about that. I told you. All right. There's nothing funny about this next story either.
Did you hear about the accused serial killer in Florida who was given a chance to say his last words before he was executed? And his last words were, President Trump, keep making America great. I'm ready to go. How long did he think about what his last words would be? And at what point did he decide he was going to say, keep making America great, Trump? I don't know.
Well, there goes another Trump voter. There's nothing funny about that. Nothing funny about that. All right.

There's a new bipartisan bill that's being introduced. Fox News is talking about it. That would allow the military to shoot down drones that are over our military bases. Apparently, in the last year or so, there have been 350 drone sightings over military bases, which I guess we think most of them or all of them or some percentage of them were enemies spying on our bases.
So at the moment, it's not legal to just start blazing away. I don't know what kind of weapon they would use, but if this passes, and it's bipartisan, so pretty good chance it will, the military will be able to knock them out of the air. It would be good practice. Here's the worst idea that Switzerland ever had. Ha!

Chapter 5: What issues are facing the Border Patrol under Biden?
It looks really good in the video, but it's gotta be the worst idea I've ever heard. So Switzerland is putting solar panels on train tracks. But these are active train tracks. So, you know, the in-between part of the rails, you got all this space, and it's just sitting there. So Switzerland decided, I think it's still in trial, to put solar panels between the rails.
And they've got them so that the train doesn't touch them. Now, problem number one is, if you have solar panels, they're really a lot more effective if they're facing the direction of the sun. If they're facing straight up, you're already giving up, what, 30% of all your efficiency? Number two, I don't know if you know this, but trains can cause some vibration. Are you aware of that? In fact,
There are very few things that cause more vibration than a train going over a solar panel. I can't believe that they're not going to have the biggest maintenance problem in the world. And then number three, I don't know what things are like in Switzerland, but in the United States, if you put a bunch of solar panels on the ground, people would just break them with rocks. No reason. No reason.
Just because they could. So you got a problem with maybe vandals breaking them. Unless Switzerland doesn't have any vandals. I don't know. Maybe they're special that way. But no, I'm not thinking that this will sweep the world. I think Switzerland's got some problems going. Well, China says that their humanoid robots won't take your job or anybody's job.
They'll simply boost the efficiency of the current employees. It's not going to replace them. It's just going to boost their productivity. Do you believe that? Do you believe that they will do nothing but boost your productivity? Well, I would say that depends a great deal on what job you're talking about.
If you're talking about a job that's literally just carrying things from one place to another, hmm, maybe that will replace your job. But if it's a lot of variability and you need a person there to figure out if the robot's doing the right thing, well, then maybe it won't take your job. Reuters is reporting on this.
Well, have you heard yet the audio of Biden being interviewed by special counsel Herr? So we'd seen the transcripts, but we had not heard him talking. And it's as bad as you imagined it. uh biden didn't remember the year that his son died and then even when he was told he got it wrong again and he started rambling about his dead son which wasn't even the answer to the question i don't think and
You could see why special counsel Herr said that there was no point in prosecuting him because he would just look like a forgetful old man. It's pretty bad. So here's what I want to add to the fact that Democrats are acting like, well, how could we have possibly known? I mean, we didn't hear the Herr audio. Well, I'm going to add to that. How could they possibly have known?

Chapter 6: What are the implications of solar panels on train tracks?
And also, was there even one Democrat who pointed out, even one, that Biden ran on the fine people hoax, which wasn't even real? Do you recall even one Democrat saying, well, your entire campaign theme is based on a lie? No. No. That's all you need to know.
If they can't even point out that the entire campaign was built on one of the most easily debunked hoaxes, then obviously they don't care that he was mentally retarded. I mean, they wouldn't care about that at all. And now Jake Tapper is modifying his message a little bit to say that He needs to have some humility about the fact that he didn't catch it. He didn't catch it early.
Does anybody believe anything that Jake Tapper is saying about this topic? Unbelievable. Well, Harry Enten, the data guy on CNN, was talking about a new Reuters Ipsos poll that shows that Trump's popularity had gone down quite a bit, but seems to have recovered. In late April, he was eight points underwater, but he's already recovered almost all that.
He's up seven points to a negative one net favorability. And as Harry Enten says, This is not the picture I think a lot of people were thinking that we would be painting in late April. I think a lot of people expected his approval to keep dropping, but in fact it rose. Now, that's almost entirely based on people were afraid of the tariffs, right?
And then after he said, oh, we'll take down the tariffs or give China 90 days or something, then everybody said, oh, okay. I think it was mostly based on that. I don't think the timing would have included his Middle East trip, which was a big success. Well, you've heard of the Big Beautiful Bill. That is the budget bill that Trump's trying to get passed.
Apparently, it's already been voted down by the first committee by 2116. Now, that's a committee vote. That's not the whole Congress. So I guess they'll have to go back and negotiate and change things. Now, the budget, of course, is a complete failure by the Republicans and by Trump because it does not address the deficit in any meaningful way. And that's the only thing that matters.
Everything else is optional. but the deficit will kill us. So they've decided not to do anything about that. The sticking points seem to be the SALT deductions. That's the state and local tax deductions. So the blue states mostly like California and New Jersey and New York, have very high state taxes. It wasn't long ago, before Trump, when you could deduct those from your federal taxes.
So, I mean, it was a deduction, not a subtraction. But there's a big conversation about whether those should come back, and if they do, at what level. You know, I don't know if you know this, but my taxes, I'm pretty sure, went up. when Trump did his first tax reduction.
Because if you're in California and you lose your state and local tax deduction, which by the way, I don't see why we deserve it. Why do we deserve some kind of special treatment? Because our state is so poorly run that our taxes are high. Why does that give me the right to a deduction? It never made sense. So I never really argued against it.

Chapter 7: How is Biden's interview impacting public perception?
So you have to be in college or you have to be doing some public service or have a job or you won't get Medicaid. But they don't want that to kick in until 2028 after the presidential election. So I don't know if you could be more lame than that.
They come up with an idea that would kick people off, but it's a clever idea because it only kicks off people that you think are lazy or not contributing. But 5 billion people would lose their Medicaid under this work requirement, but they push it to 2028 where probably it'll be reversed before then. So that's like not even trying. Not even trying. According to the Wall Street Journal, U.S.
oil production, I was kind of expecting this, is going to decline in 2026. Not a ton, but it won't go up. And I guess the shale companies are slowing production because the price of oil is down. And we might be reaching peak oil in terms of what we have to get out of the ground anyway. I don't know about that peak oil part.
So if you thought that low oil prices were a good sign, they're a good sign in some ways. Putin won't have as much money to wage his war. But in other ways, it's just going to cause people to drill for less oil, and then prices will go back up. So oil is kind of hard to evaluate because it's got the negative and the positive at the same time all the time.
According to Wall Street Apes, there's a story here about Ted Cruz, who was talking to the chief diversity officer of the State Department. And apparently they had a hiring policy. And Ted Cruz was getting to the bottom of it. They included an email that was sent out.
from the chief diversity officer, saying that white men, straight white men, and being Christian was a disability and those people can't be hired. So that was as bad as you thought it was. Unbelievable. A disability, being a white man. This was the State Department. It's not even a private company. I mean, what can you do except just shake your head?
I feel all those South African whites who are coming here to get away from South Africa, I feel if they knew how bad things were here, they might have gone back. I don't know. Anyway, Syria is now talking to Israel about joining the Abraham Accords. And Trump has allegedly brokered that. Do you think that's going to happen?
Do you think Syria and Israel are going to start getting along and Syria will join the Abraham Accords? Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. I wouldn't rule it out. So that might be some good news coming. All right. So I didn't want to talk about James Comey and his 86-47, but it's just all over the news. You know, my opinion was that it was innocent because 86 just means get rid of food.
That's the definition that Grok will give you. But a number of you said, Scott, you don't understand. In my world, you said, it means do violence, you know, kill somebody. And I thought to myself, what the hell world do you live in? Now, I will give you that if you were in the back room of a mafia situation and the mafia boss said to you, hey, Scott, I need you to 86 veto.

Chapter 8: What are the latest developments in the budget bill?
Go to any AI, Grok will help, and just say, what is the definition of 86? And it will say it came out of the restaurant industry. Now, but I'm acknowledging... that if you were in a different context where people do get killed and that's normal for that context, that if you used it in that context, it probably wouldn't mean kill somebody. But no, the normal context is not kill somebody.
It just seems to be a secondary context. And I will acknowledge that. Anyway, he's not in any risk. You won't be arrested. Because... there's a nonviolent, more common use for it. As long as that's true, you don't have to worry about it. He doesn't have to worry about it. But I will give you this.
I do think the Republicans just want to pounce on it because if Trump had said it, they would have said, it's mafia talk. Trump's doing that mafia talk. And we would say, are you kidding? That's not mafia talk. It's just talk. So if you want to go after Comey and act like he was doing mafia talk, have fun. Just have fun with it, but don't drag me into it. Because to me, that issue is done.
So the Supreme Court was looking at that issue of whether it would be legal. Well, no, it wasn't looking at that. but it was considering the Alien Enemies Act and birthright citizenship, and it made a ruling that had nothing to do with either of them directly.
So the Supreme Court kicked back to a lower court the question of how long you would give notice to these alien enemies before you pick them up and deport them. Now, I'm no border security person, But is it a good idea to give notice to your alien enemies before you pick them up? And how much notice do you give? Yeah, there you go. There's the Grok definition going by in the comments.
And I saw somebody suggest, all right, well, if you have to give them 72 hours of notice or something like that, can you do it all at once? Can you just announce, hey, if you're in that Trenda, Ragwa gang, we're telling you now publicly it's your 72-hour notice. You better get out of here. Now, maybe, maybe you can do them all at once. Or do you have to do them individually, like with their name?
Juan, I'm here to tell you, you've got 72 hours. Then wouldn't Juan kind of disappear? Or can you tell them after they're captured? So I don't know anything. I don't understand this story at all. So it's going to a lower court to decide how much notice you get if you're a target of the Alien Enemies Act. So I think the Supreme Court, somebody said punted.
Yeah, they just decided not to be part of the solution. Maybe that was the right answer. Well, Moody's has downgraded the credit rating of the US. I think it's the last one that did it, because the other credit agencies have already done it. And it's because of our debt. too much debt. And then they looked at the new budget proposal and said to themselves, well, that's not going to help.
So there you go. That should cost us a lot of money for nothing. Over in Gaza, there's a question about whether Israel succeeded in taking out the head of Hamas, which his last name would be Sinwar. Now you might say, but wait, what? They already took out Sinwar. Well, apparently he had a brother.
