Chapter 1: What executive orders is Trump proposing to address racism?
There's room. Room up at the front. Grab your most comfortable chair, your most delicious beverage, and get ready for the experience that you've been waiting for. That's right. Stocks, all right, well, that's not good. Stock market is down. But we'll pretend we didn't even see that. Didn't even see it. Didn't happen. All right, then let's do a show.
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 a chance on elevating your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that
is a copper mugger, glass of tanker shells, a steiner canteen, jug of 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 of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous slip, and it happens now. Well, I'm going to warn you in advance.
As you know, my health journey has included some days where the pain is pretty bad. It was pretty bad this morning, so I'm operating on some painkillers that I typically try really hard not to do before the show because it'll make me all loopy. So today's show will be loopy. I have no idea what's going to happen today. And neither do you. I might pass out. Anything could happen today.
I might go on a Nancy Grace swearing. I shouldn't have said that. But what we're going to do is make sure that I'm watching your comments here. All right, there we are. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Favorite part of the day, commencing now. Hey, I wonder if there's any science that they didn't need to do because they could have just asked me. Oh, here we are.
According to Bianca Sechinago, there's a new research that says if you cluster unhealthy habits linked to higher depression, you'll have even worse depression. Let me see. Could I figure this one out on my own? So if you do a thing, one thing that's linked with making you depressed, it won't be as bad as if you did two things that would make you depressed individually.
I think I would have been all over that. Yeah. Yeah. Next time, just ask me. You probably heard a bunch of airports are cutting back service 10% today. How many of you would go to an airport if you knew they'd cut back service 10% and you didn't know? Is everybody in the same job today or are people filling in for other people because of the 10% thing? I'd be a little worried about flying today.
But 10% doesn't sound that bad. unless you're flying on an airline that's part of a system that's 40 years away from being modernized. So if I were you, if you can postpone your trip, maybe, maybe it'd be a good time. I saw Elon Musk was doing a podcast and he had some useful advice about being useful. And this is, you might recognize this as so exactly my opinion as well.
And I like it whenever the smartest person in the world agrees with me. That always feels good. It's like, wait, wait, he agreed with me? Oh, that's cool. So here's his advice for young entrepreneurs. He says, try to be as useful as possible And later he clarified, useful to the most number of people.

Chapter 2: How does Elon Musk's advice relate to entrepreneurship?
If he comes up with his own catchphrases and he came up with affordability and also relentless improvement, I don't know what could stop him. So you better hope he didn't do it. You better hope he's getting advice. Because the advice can be separated from the person. But if he's doing this himself... Okay, he's got game, like you didn't know.
So find out if he has an advisor and then find out, secondly, if his advisor came up with both of those things, only one of them or none. So we need to know that once you find the person who came up with those two things, if it's the same person, that person has a lot of power. by being good at what they're doing. Not power by office, but power by influence.
That would be a really influential person. You could ask, please do, please ask. All right, we'll find out. Trump is drafting some executive orders. on election integrity, according to the Epoch Times. Tom Ozemek is writing about this. Now, I thought that that was sort of a dead end.
I thought that the states have so much guaranteed authority over elections that it wouldn't even matter what Trump did. They would just take it to court and say, get out of here. States get to decide how to do this. But given that Trump is going forward with it, that would suggest there's something, at least some optimism that he can get something done.
But he is also calling the California mail-in voting system rigged, of course, and says it needs a legal and criminal review. So remember I always tell you that one of the things that you can predict about Trump, and you'll see it again, reality, You don't have a good view of reality unless you can predict. I always tell you that, right?
So you tell me, could I have predicted that in the domain of election integrity would have been possible to predict that Trump would take the strongest stance? No, I've been telling you this forever. He always just takes the strongest stance. That's it. What's the strongest stance? Okay. That's my stance. Now, the fact that the strongest stance in this case, I don't think would work. Is that bad?
Do we say, oh, he's bad at this? Trump is because he's taking a strong stand, but it's not very practical if it's not going to work. Nope. As long as you understand he always takes the strongest stance, then the very next thing he goes into, whether it's election integrity or some other topic, everybody's going to expect him to take the strongest stance because it's just what he does every time.
And that gives him automatically a the foundational approach. Like he's the one who has the starting point, because you know what his starting point is, the strongest position. So does he believe that he can win in any of these particulars, such as mail-in voting or any of that? I don't know. I mean, somebody probably told him he had a chance. but he doesn't need to win.
He just needs to take the strongest stance and make sure everybody knows it. Anyway, when Carolyn Leavitt was asked what evidence the White House has that there was any rigging involved, what did she say? Said she would provide evidence of fraud to reporters after the briefing. Really? Because that would be done by now. alleging that fraudulent ballots are being mailed, names of other people.

Chapter 3: What is the significance of SpaceX's Golden Dome contract?
So there's your thing. Just remember that you do have an option of how you feel that can be separated from what you're experiencing. It takes practice, but you can do it. All right, here's another promises made, promises kept. President Trump is also signing executive orders to get rid of DEI in the military. I thought we already did that, didn't we? Get rid of DEI in the military.
Well, we're going to keep doing it, I guess. And then Texas, speaking of DEI, they're suspending their DEI program because it excluded white males. Daily Wire is writing about this. Leif de Menu. Leif de Menu. What a great name that is. L-E-I-F. And then I don't know what the LE is. It's not like a middle name, right? That would be a two-part last name. Leif Lemahou. Excellent name.
Anyway, so that's a little racism that's going around. I wonder if there's any other racism. Oh, Google also faces the lawsuit. Do you see a pattern yet? Google also faces a lawsuit claiming... claiming that an executive was told that promotions were off limits because he is white, and they blacklisted him, and then he reported his supervisor for being a wild drunk, and then that didn't work.
So the drunken racist is still on the job, I think. Allegedly drunken racist. Allegedly drunken racist. Yeah, I know Lo is off. Anyway, so Google's under a little pressure there. Did anybody see Marjorie Taylor Greene on The View the other day?
I was watching that, and it appears, and I can't read her mind or anything like that, but whether or not I ever agree or disagree with Marjorie Taylor Greene, she's just so likable. Is it just me? Am I the only one who just sees her? And I think, you're just so likable. It doesn't matter if I'm on board with the same policies. Sometimes I'm not. Sometimes I am. But she apparently...
And maybe this is temporary. We don't know. But it looks like she may have softened her, let's say, aggressive or assertive. Still assertive, but maybe dialed down the aggressive part a little bit. Assertive is good. Aggressive depends. And so she sort of made nice with the ladies on The View, and they liked it, and she liked it.
And then somewhere around that time, I came up with this realization about myself that might apply to you, and it might be a universal, and I want to test it out, okay? There are people on the left that I like while disagreeing with some of their opinions. Likewise, there are people on the right who I like a lot while disagreeing with some of their opinions.
And so I was trying to figure out, what is it about the people on the left and the people on the right that would make me like some of them like really like them a lot. There's just something about their vibe or their, I don't know, just something about it. And I finally figured out what it was. I'm going to read a number of people. You tell me what the common element is. You ready for this?
This will be like a cool little contest you can do at home. So some of these will be on the left. Oh, did I? I don't think I have enough on the right, but you get the idea. So what do these people have in common? Donald Trump, Rand Paul, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Nancy Mace, Bill Maher. I threw a Bill Maher in there, somebody on the left. I would also throw in, what's his name? Jon Stewart.

Chapter 4: How does California's Prop 50 affect political representation?
Next thing you know, that's all they'll have. Well, they also have cursing. So they have not doing their job, as in shutting down the government, and they also have cursing. So those are their two go-tos. Cursing and not working. If I told you that one of the parties had decided that their strategy was to curse more and not do work, would you have guessed which one it was?
Would you have said to yourself, hmm, they want to curse more and they want to not work? Yeah, that could be a Republican. No, that couldn't be a Republican. That actually could not be a Republican. You would be mocked so hard if you were a Republican and you said, let's do the not work thing. Anyway, I guess the Supreme Court is looking at tariffs today, I believe, or this week.
So Justice Barrett was asking about if we reverse the tariffs, is there any practical way to refund the money? To which I think, refund the tariffs? What kind of monster are you? It's bad enough that you might take the tariffs away from Trump, as a weapon, but you wanna refund? Bitch, are you kidding me? You wanna refund the $200 billion that he's already collected.
How about we just don't bring that up? Even if we decided we don't wanna do tariffs, how about we just keep that money? Can I send over a guy to teach you how money works? His name is Trump. You may have heard of him. And if you can imagine, close your eyes and imagine a table that only has one thing on it, a big pile of money.
And all you have to do is take it and you can keep it and there's no penalty. What would Trump do? He would probably check. Anybody, really? Are you serious? Nobody's going to take this money. All right. And then he's scooping up because he's smarter than you. Not you, but he's smarter than people when it comes to handling money.
And no, you don't even bring up the conversation of should we refund it? No, that's not how any of this works. Anyway, so we'll see what happens. The alarming thing is that if the Supreme Court decides we can or cannot have tariffs, worse, of course, if they decide we can't, wouldn't that basically put them in charge of everything?
Why would the Supreme Court get to decide how the president can use his weapons? because it's a weapon, right? Mostly. I mean, it's a tax collection process too, but the constitution doesn't say anything about collecting taxes, but we do it. So yeah, I'm concerned that it's the wrong branch of government handling the most important thing. It's just the wrong branch of government.
Anyway, three Chinese nationals from the University of Michigan been arrested, it looks like, and charged for smuggling what they call biological materials into the U.S., Oh, no, turns out it was their lunch. Just their lunch. Joking. I'm joking. It wasn't their lunch. It was biological materials. What kind of biological materials? I don't know. I don't like the sound of it.
Hey, Bob, what's that in that bag? Nothing. No, seriously, what's in the bag, Bob? So it's biological materials. Wait, what? Speak up. It's biological materials. Can you say that a little more clearly? It's biological materials. Ah! And then I would start running out the door, holding a mask, double masking. That would be the first time I ever double masked, if I heard that.

Chapter 5: What controversy surrounds CBS's recent hiring decisions?
Megan Kelley. was unleashing on Republicans. Oh, part of it was, I think there was some thought that the Russians might be boosting Tucker Carlson because that would mess things up in our country. I don't know if that's true. But Megyn Kelly, I saw that Colin Rognist did this on the X-Post.
He said, Megyn Kelly unleashes on Republicans, congratulates them for spending the last few weeks policing a group chat and Tucker Carlson. All right, so here's what Megyn Kelly said, and it's just so well-worded, it's fun. She said, quote, the Republicans like to lose. They enjoy losing. They enjoy when they're embattled and in a losing position and complaining. They love it.
They do it really well. Less good at winning, especially when Donald Trump is not there to get them over the line. The Republican Party is not strong. Donald Trump is strong. Republicans don't know how to win. They don't know how to run.
don't they don't know what to do when daddy's not there to fly them across the finish line okay that's just that's just excellent writing right there even though she spoke it but you know what i mean um so good at communicating so good but here's a here's my take
I've never really thought about this so much that if you took Trump out of the Republican Party, is it possible that they could never win again? I'm not predicting that. I'm just saying, you know what? This sort of struck me as too true. I hadn't really been thinking in these terms, but I feel like Trump is the only reason anything went well for the Republicans.
And that the minute they try to do something without him, it looks like dumb. And when they do something that he's behind, it looks smart. And, you know, Megan's all over this. So I think she's right. The Republicans have a real problem here. Now, the part about going after Tucker, my take on that was if the only thing you have to do in politics is go after your own team,
it kind of means you've already won because the other team's not worth going after. If there were another team that were a threat, you would go after them first. You wouldn't go after Tucker.
But once you got all that taken care of and the border is sealed and Trump's doing what he can do and things seem to be moving in a generally good direction, then you start thinking, huh, that Tucker guy is saying some provocative things that seem to get a little bit too close to the line and I got some questions. Why is he always so close to that line? I don't know. Can't read his mind.
So I don't take it the same way a lot of you. I don't take it as a real fight. I take it as running out of things to do. We ran out of things to do. Now we're going to have to go after each other. That's what it looks like. Anyway. As I said before, and I think this take is the most useful one, you know, we all walk around with our own filter.
