Chapter 1: What is the highlight of human civilization?
If you're here and I'm here, we should do something about it. Stocks are up a little bit. You will enjoy looking at your stock portfolio if you have one. And as soon as I get my comments going, we're going to have quite the show. Oh yeah, it'll be epic. Good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
It's called Coffee with Scott Adams and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or a tank or a chalice or a slide, a canteen jug or a 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 at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and darn it, it's going to happen right now. Go. Go. So good. So, so good. So I wonder if there are any scientific studies that they didn't need to do because they could have just asked me. Well, oh, here's one.
New York Post is reporting that A study was done on magic mushrooms, USF did a study, and they found that a single dose of psilocybin, that's the magic mushrooms, one dose can help Parkinson's patients with dramatic improved mood, motor function, and memory. And it even lasts even after one dose.
Now, I wouldn't have known specifically that this would work for Parkinson's, but when was the last time you ever saw a study in which psychedelics were involved and the result was it didn't work? For whatever it was. They could test it for depression. Yep, it works. They could test it for a variety of mental problems. Yep, it works.
They can test it for really anything that's happening in your brain or your body. If you have a... What would you call it? Not a drug, exactly. But if you have something you can take that works every single time you test it, it doesn't even matter what you're testing it on, and there's basically no downside whatsoever...
I would have guessed accurately that it would have been good for Parkinson's patients. Without any knowledge whatsoever, I would have just said, well, does it work for everything else you test it for? All right, probably it'll work for the next thing too. All right, here's one. This one's so dumb, it's just funny. There's a Norwegian University of Science and Technology
And they found out that the children who have increased physical activity have a lower risk of developing symptoms of depression. How many times are they going to do that study? Well, let's do it in Norway. All right, let's study 13 to 15-year-olds. Okay, how about 15 to 17-year-olds? It's all the same. Physical activity is good for your brain, just like psilocybin.

Chapter 2: How can psychedelics help with mental health?
You could have just asked Scott. All right, here's one. I would have gotten this one right, too.
It turns out that you, if you compare, and the University of Basque Country did this, I don't know who they are, but they did a study and they found that children who learn to write, you know, actually physically write with their hand, they develop better reading and writing, well, better reading skills, I guess. Now, would you have known that?
I would have known that because how many times have I taught you that your entire body is your brain? When I studied for tests back when I was a student, one of my tricks was to get as many of my senses involved. So if I were trying to memorize something, I would definitely write it down. And then I would draw a picture of it. And then I would hum it and then maybe I would chant it.
Like I'd say, you know, and the West was settled in the year, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And if I could have smelled it or heard it or gotten any other senses involved, I would have done it. Now you can't really smell history or math, but the idea is the more parts of your body that get involved, the more learning. because your entire body is part of your memory system. It is.
If you can get something into your head through all five of your senses, it'll stay there. If you get it into your head through one of your senses, let's say just reading it on a page, it might stay there, but it's not going to be nearly as sticky. So the more your body that gets involved, You could dance it. You could sing it. You can chant it. You can write it down.
Children, this is a great study trick. I would have gotten that one right. All right, here's a story. Business Insider is writing that the U.S. Army plans to flood its forces with drones. So every division of the Army is going to have all kinds of drones. You've got drones here and drones there, and they'll probably have fewer aircraft and ground vehicles. But boy, they're going to have drones.
Now, my big question was, wasn't it just a few years ago where the common wisdom is America couldn't make drones and that only China had all the parts and the know-how to make drones, at least make drones at an economical way? But apparently the U.S. has quietly developed quite the drone-making industry. But we don't really know who they are. We know about Anduril, but that's a bigger enterprise.
They do lots of different products. But there must be a bunch of other ones. Someone else, I guess, was involved in one of these drone companies. confirmed that they're making drones and lots of others are making them. So I guess the problem of making drones in the United States has been solved, which is a really big deal.
Now, probably they're not cost-effective for consumers, but they're being made for the military. Now, if you build a big factory that's ultimately automated and it's got robot arms and stuff,

Chapter 3: What advancements are being made in US drone production?
you know, give up the W. So instead of firing him, firing him, he does remove him from the office. But hours later, Trump announced that he was going to nominate him to be the UN ambassador, a role requiring Senate confirmation. Now, I'm going to tell you a story from my college experience because it's the only other time I've ever seen this happen. So he got fired into a promotion.
Some are saying that's a better job, the UN ambassador. I don't know if that's true. But let me tell you something from my college experience.
make it fast before I was a trained hypnotist and before I had you know learned persuasion I still thought I was kind of persuasive but only in sort of an arguing way you know sort of a good debater I didn't really have the skills that I developed over a lifetime but even in college I I knew I was more persuasive than the average person.
So one of the side jobs I had in college was I had volunteered to be the finance guy, because I was an economics major, the finance guy for the only business that operated, student business, that operated on campus. We had something called the coffee house, which is where we served beer and peanuts and we'd have live entertainment.
It was sort of the only place on campus you could go and sit down and buy a beverage and stuff like that. Now, this place had never made money. So somehow it was a monopoly on campus and it was usually full and somehow it didn't make money. So as the finance guy. And they'd never had a finance guy.
I went in and implemented some accounting and some accountability and negotiated with some vendors and made it profitable. So the first thing that happened was I won a full doge on it before doge was the thing. And it worked because it just needed a little tweaking. And then the college didn't have to supplement it, which it had been. So if you do something that works,
and people see it and it's visible, you get all this credibility. So because the other people on the committee, it was all student run. There were no outside people, just students running the thing. If you make something work, you become more credible. Now, one of the things I did was one of my good friends wanted a job as a bartender. And I recommended him.
And because I was a member of the working committee that ran the place, my recommendation carried some weight. Now, unfortunately, he was very bad at his job. He's a very capable person. But, you know, not everybody can do every kind of job. So he was just sort of not good as a bartender. Would come in late after basketball practice and, you know, he'd be too tired.
And, you know, he just wasn't up for it. So one day, the people who ran the coffee house, we had a meeting and there were two major things on the agenda. Number one was we needed to elect a leader for our own committee. The people who ran the coffee house, we we had lost our leader, so we needed a new leader.

Chapter 4: How is AI changing the way we work?
Or is it to make China doubt their own cohorts in government? Because I love the fact that if China saw we were making a big push, then everything that the other leaders were doing would start looking suspicious. So what this does is, this is a persuasion play as well as a recruiting play. The persuasion would be, if you put in China's head
that we're actively recruiting, then anything that another Chinese leader says that isn't exactly what you want them to say, you're going to say to yourself, huh, I wonder. I wonder if that one got promoted or got recruited. Hmm, I don't know. You're acting a little bit suspicious. Why is it you need access to this information? Oh, well, under normal circumstances,
Under normal times, it would be normal for somebody to say, I need some access to some confidential information to do my job. But if it were in your head... that America was recruiting more spies, and then your fellow leader said, oh, can I have access to that private information? You'd say to yourself, hmm, why? Why do you need that?
So I think it's very clever in making the Chinese leadership doubt other Chinese leadership. So that's kind of clever. Well, we heard from, I guess, Susie Wiles, chief of staff for Trump, that Elon Musk is no longer physically in any kind of office in the West Wing. He's doing things remotely by phone.
He's still involved, but to a lesser extent, and obviously he's going to be paying more attention to his businesses. But Jesse Waters met with the Doge team, and they did make some news, but I'm not going to report any of it. As you know, I've made the mistake of repeating what Doge has claimed in the past, and I got bitten every time.
So they have some provocative claims that, if they were true, would be pretty newsworthy. But since I can't tell what's true, and Doge has over-claimed or left out context, and in some cases just been maybe wrong about what something meant, I do believe that they're honest in the sense that they don't say stuff unless they think it's true. I don't think they necessarily get everything right.
So I'm not even going to report the provocative claims of the things they say. I do think that directionally, Doge is good. And I don't think it came anywhere near its own stated goal of finding a trillion or so. And I'm not even sure if the $160 billion they claim will actually prove out.
but here's what i think is the biggest benefit of doge it made doge a thing now when people in the states realize that they need to get their budgets under control they use the word they say we need a doge and what they mean is it can't be the usual people in government It probably needs to be some kind of independent people brought in who can audit things and maybe improve things technically.
So if I were going to evaluate Doge on meeting their, let's say, their own goals, I would say, doesn't look like they did. But if I were to evaluate them on their long-term impact on the country, it might be one of the best things that's ever happened. Meaning that we now understand that the doge is completely necessary and needs to be permanent.

Chapter 5: What’s the latest on DEI initiatives and funding?
As soon as it was about him, he's like, well, polls come and go. Now, on one hand, it's a funny story about an elderly Democrat leader who's just a clown and was completely outmatched by one question. One question just destroyed his whole thing. But there's a bigger thing going on. I think the biggest gaslighting that's happening right now is the idea that the polls are driven by public opinion.
Because that's the way you think it is, right? The pollsters ask the voters, what's your opinion? And then they give us the result. Well, I was listening to Victor Davis Hanson explain that some of these recent decreases in Trump's polls are because the pollsters simply didn't ask many Trump voters the question. So instead of asking, let's say, half voters,
of the people who are Trump supporters and let's say half who are not, what do you think of Trump? Because that would match the actual vote, right? Because the vote is usually, you know, almost a tie. So if you wanted a good poll, you'd want to talk to about half of the people who voted for Trump and half of the people who didn't. And then that would tell you something.
But if you favor the people who didn't vote for Trump and you say, what do you think about his approval? and they say, hmm, not so much, you haven't really measured the public. What you've done is you have a fake poll, which is done for completely political reasons, to move the public. But beyond that, where does the public get its information?
It gets its information from the fake news, for the most part. It's not like people are doing their own deep dive and doing their own investigation. They're doing what the media tells them. They're basically just parroting the media. Have you seen the people on the street when they do the street interviews? Somebody would say, what do you think about Trump? And they'll say, well, too much chaos.
And he should use a scalpel instead of, and Doge should use a scalpel instead of a chainsaw. Where do you think they get those buzzwords? They didn't do their own deep dive and come up with the same buzzwords. They're literally reporting what they heard on the news, which we know is fake news. So you got your fake news that's come up with this trick.
I don't know how long they've been doing it, but they're doing it now, where they pretend that the public makes up its own mind. The public doesn't make up its own mind. It makes up its mind based on what the media told it. So if the media has collectively decided to say chaos a million times and scalpel a million times, what do you think the voters that they talk to are going to say?
Well, the Trump voters are still going to favor Trump. The polls show that. But what about the other people who are oversampled? The oversampled people are just going to repeat what they heard on MSNBC and CNN. Oh, they didn't use a scalpel and there's so much chaos. Can you give me an example of the chaos? Well, they didn't use a scalpel.
Okay, well, we talked about the scalpel thing, but what would be the chaos? Well, all the tariffs seem to be moving and they're complicated and they keep changing. And then you would say, you mean exactly like Trump tells you he always negotiates, where he brings great uncertainty into a situation until people are begging for certainty, and then he negotiates and gets what he wants? You mean that?

Chapter 6: How are major automakers shifting production to the US?
Meanwhile, I always tell you about the designated liars, the DDLs, the Democrat designated liars. So Swalwell is one, Jamie Raskin is another, Adam Schiff is another. There's a certain set of, of Democrats who will tell the big lie that is sort of part of the Nazi propaganda that regular Democrats won't do. So your normal Democrats will just sort of stay out of the news.
But the ones who want to be in the news, they will tell any lie. So they're the ones saying Trump wants to cut your Social Security. There's literally no evidence of that, and there's plenty of evidence that he says, absolutely not, I won't do that. But the designated liars will say it, and people will believe it. It's part of the Nazi propaganda that they use.
Well, here's one that Eric Swalwell is trying to push. So despite all of the election denial stuff that's happened over 2020, Swalwell was on some kind of podcast with some leftist, and there was an allegation brought up that enemies of the US stole US data, and that somehow Elon Musk's Starlink was involved.
Now, what evidence is there that Starlink was involved in any of the election stuff, and certainly what evidence was involved that if they were involved, I don't even think they were involved in any elections. They're not part of the election system as far as I know. And what evidence would there be that they somehow participated in helping Russia get election data?
I mean, it's just a ridiculous accusation. So what does Swalwell say? He goes, Elon Musk has done nothing in the last five months to make me think that we shouldn't ask questions about what the hell he was doing in 2024. In other words, Swalwell, one of the Democrat designated liars, wants you to believe that the 2024 election might have been rigged by Elon Musk.
meaning technically rigged, not just that he participated and that he funded stuff and he was effective in the campaign. They don't like that. But how shameless do you have to be to say something like this? Well, we can't rule it out. They certainly ruled it out in 2020. So are we to believe that the election systems are that vulnerable
If we are to believe that they're that vulnerable, then wouldn't they also have been vulnerable in 2020? Or did they only become vulnerable when Trump won? Just insane lies coming out of the designated liars. Well, meanwhile, according to the AP, you know that 60 Minutes report that caused Trump to sue CBS?
It's the one where Kamala Harris was being interviewed, and there was at least one edit that allegedly made her answer look more coherent than it really was. And that's part of what Trump is suing over. And apparently that report, that segment of 60 Minutes, is nominated for an Emmy Award. It's nominated for an Emmy Award. Now, that is just the classic Democrat thing.
Because remember the Russia collusion hoax? It won Pulitzer Prizes for some of the writers. The people who are pushing the biggest hoax this country has ever experienced, probably the biggest one, got a Pulitzer, and now the 60 Minutes thing that will probably end up in a win for Trump. So Trump will probably get a big paycheck out of that. They nominated it for an Emmy Award. That's funny.
