hey everybody come on in oh do we have stuff to talk about boy do we and if he didn't see my tweet and he didn't read the description of this periscope let me warn you again hide the children there will be swearing hide them put the earmuffs on but before we start what do we need to do yes you know it's the simultaneous step and all you need is a copper mug or a glass of tanker chelsea sign a canteen joker flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine of the day the thing that makes everything better including cursing it's called the simultaneous hip and it happens now go
so the other day i was testing my digital assistant from amazon whose name

[1:13]

digital assistant from amazon whose name shall not be spoken so i don't activate all of your devices at home and i said to my device a-l-e-x-a i said play coffee with scott adams and sure enough it just starts playing my uh you know at least the audio of my podcast but here's the interesting part whatever it was playing i guess the last time i had been using you know the the player i'd played it at maybe double speed or 1.5 speed i'm not sure so i got to hear myself at 1.5 or or twice the speed and i gotta say it's better it's way better as a presenting technique i should tell you that i intentionally speed up the pace at which i speak when i'm doing it in public but when you're the audience and you hear it back it still doesn't sound fast enough even to my own ear so there's this weird uh speaker problem

[2:15]

so there's this weird uh speaker problem you have where where time is different for the speaker than it is for the listener so right now i'm intentionally talking at about maybe 50 faster than i would talk if you were here in person and it's still not fast enough so i recommend that you listen to me um either on locals you can play it faster i think youtube will do it i think the podcast uh can do it as well so speed me up it's way better um so looks like putin has poisoned another critic i don't know what to think about that it's bad but i don't know if it changes anything because it's not i mean except for the person who got poisoned because it's not like putin was going to be
be removed from power or anything so i don't know why anybody would live in that country or even live you know be a russian national and and be opposed to putin

[3:15]

and and be opposed to putin and you would need a food taster for that that's some dangerous stuff um i don't know how much longer i will be broadcasting the coffee with scott adams from this location because i'm checking every hour to see if i have to evacuate so there's a very large fire that's heading my way i'm talking about a really large fire that last i checked was five percent contained and there's nothing between that enormous fire uh and my house except for very burnable stuff so if our uh in fact my town is looks like a staging area for the fire departments i noticed that there's there's one area down here the fairgrounds that are just full of fire department people so i don't know if i'd want to stay and fight it out because i i built this house to be fireproof it's a you know i actually picked it so

[4:18]

it's a you know i actually picked it so it would be drought proof i have my own well should be fireproof because it's designed to have nothing on the outside that can burn something would have to get sucked in which could happen but externally there's nothing that could catch fire i might have to remove one one tree that's a little too close but otherwise i could probably ride it out even if the rest of the neighborhood burned up it was built it was built for that specifically that the entire neighborhood could catch on fire as long as i wasn't killed by smoke exposure the house probably won't burn but i don't know if i'm going to take that chance and i certainly wouldn't keep the animals here so i may be evacuating soon and let me say this about the governance of california you have up badly the the government in my state can't

[5:19]

the the government in my state can't keep the lights on and can't keep fires from destroying the state now we did have a lot of bad luck this year in the sense that i think there were 11 000 lightning strikes in the last 24 hours or something so there are a lot of fires and we don't really have lightning strikes that's not really a thing that happens this time of year typically so it feels like between the coronavirus and this it's just one thing after another but anyway we'll i'll uh i'll stay here as long as i can uh steve bailey got arrested we'll talk about biden in a minute if you're waiting for the swearing that's where it's gonna happen um steve bannon got arrested for allegedly scamming some money out of a fund that he had he was attracting money to build the wall privately build a wall and here's the thing i feel as if there's going to be a lot more to that

[6:19]

there's going to be a lot more to that story because steve bannon is already quite rich according to a quick google search has a 20 million dollar net worth i don't know if that's accurate but that's that's what you can find on the internet and i'm wondering would a guy with a 20 million net worth be involved in a small scam that had these qualities there are witnesses because there's somebody else involved in this camp so there's at least one witness
so i'm a little i'm a little skeptical that the original charge is gonna stick he pled not guilty it would be easy for me to imagine that he either wasn't aware of it some lawyer did it or his partner did it

[7:21]

lawyer did it or his partner did it uh or that there was something else going on there just might be more to that story but then we also find that there's something about his connection to a a rich chinese businessman whose yacht he was on when he got arrested and that part of the story might get a little more interesting so we don't know what that's all about but here's my general statement about it i wouldn't assume that he's guilty of the the the scam somebody's guilty obviously his partner at least from what we know looks more guilty because he's the one receiving the money if this is if this is what it looks like if the allegations were true it means that bannon would have done something he would have committed a crime primarily from the benefit of another person which doesn't feel like the kind of crime that people commit

[8:22]

crime that people commit honestly so if i had to guess he's going to have a good defense but this chinese connection might be a little bit more interesting so we'll see what comes out of that
i saw a story it's a it's not a current one but there was a group that figured out how to build twenty thousand dollar homes so if you've got the land they can build a
a kind of a cute looking home uh for twenty thousand dollars now if you've got a 15-year loan a mortgage on that four percent let's say uh that'd be like less than 150 a month for a mortgage imagine if you will this model because this is what i'm playing with in my head i don't think this particular um technique they use for the twenty thousand dollar home is as good as you can do i think you could do way better than that and still keep it under twenty thousand in other words make it more livable more more green etc and if you could

[9:23]

more more green etc and if you could you can imagine a situation in which there's lots of land in the country that's close to free because nobody wants to live there you know there there are blighted areas and cities where the land is almost free or free because nobody wants to live there there there are places that you could imagine that are low-cost anyway you can imagine a model where somebody could build their own their own twenty thousand dollar home and then build another one right next to it and rent the second one out because you could probably rent one out for i don't know five hundred dollars a month whereas it only costs you 150 a month for the mortgage to pay for it so you can imagine that people would build one for themselves build a couple more on some land that they have adjacent and suddenly they have not only a skill which is building these things they have a home and they built a few more for other people who

[10:24]

more for other people who don't want to build their own house but want to live in one so i think there's going to be some model in the future where people learn a low-cost lifestyle that's sustainable and that they can they can have a full good life without the things that usually would be more expensive i think that's where it has to go it's not like just that i want it to go there it kind of has to go there because it's the only solution that's left the way things have shaped up uh and maybe we need some kind of an executive order so you can get loans for this sort of thing because right now you couldn't you could never get a loan for it by the way how messed up is this you can't get a loan for a 20 000 house do you know why even if you were you had good credit you know everything was good you know you had a job you you qualified you still couldn't get a loan for a twenty thousand dollar house and the reason is that the banks own internal costs

[11:25]

internal costs to service any loan doesn't matter how big it is the administrative cost of it is about 2300 or something like that it doesn't matter if you made a million dollar loan or a 20
20 000 loan so what does the bank want to do
do doesn't want to make any 20 000 loans they're not profitable because their overhead would be more than they can make from the loan so there are some structural things that would need to be cleared away before you could do this simple simple thing all right maybe we need some kind of executive orders for that let's talk about joe biden um
i don't i hardly know where to start um it was such a bad evening dressed up as a good evening now i was of course immediately drawn to watch cnn as soon as biden was done speaking because i wanted to see how they would treat it you knew they were going to say it was the best

[12:26]

they were going to say it was the best speech he'd ever given that was kind of a
a that was kind of baked into it um and then of course there would be conservatives who said oh my god it's terrible you know he was just reading off a teleprompter but the uh the fact that he based his campaign on being a the guy of good character the one who cares at the same time and in the same speech perpetrated the most divisive race hoax in american history the fine people hoax now you'll see the left fighting back this morning media matters and others are are trying to double down on the lie because there are so many people in the public such as me for example uh you know joel steve cortez yeah i saw charles payne i saw ali alexander i saw you know jack bassamic you know just probably hundreds of of people who have some clout at least on social media saying no

[13:27]

at least on social media saying no that's like a totally debunked hoax he's basing his campaign on a debunked hoax now one of the people who believe the hoax say ho ho ho you right-wing crazy people you you're trying to tell us that we didn't see it with our own eyes we didn't hear it with our own ears oh no
no i saw it and i heard it and i can prove it here's the video of what i saw and what i heard here it is
is and then they'll show the edited video which is the hoax if they show the whole video it shows trump without prompting and this is the important part there was no prompting said i'm not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalists they should be condemned totally if you leave that part out it could be misunderstood that he was praising the people with the torches and so in order not to be misconstrued later without prompting trump clarified to

[14:30]

without prompting trump clarified to make sure you wouldn't interpret it wrong and they locked that part off and made it
it the central part of biden's campaign so they turned the truth into a lie by getting rid of the clarification and beyond that there's a second lie that that's baked in and the second lie is this that it matters who was there it doesn't matter it doesn't matter if there were any fine people there it doesn't matter if there was anybody there who disavowed the racist and just liked the statues it doesn't matter because trump gave his assumption that he thought there were fine people there who fit that category of not racist and that he spoke to his assumption worst case scenario is that he was mistaken about who attended right that's the worst it could be is he thought there were some fine people

[15:32]

thought there were some fine people but once you looked into it maybe there weren't except that i looked into it personally because i'd said some things in public which caused people to uh to contact me and people several of them and you're gonna ask well why don't you give me their names of course i'm not gonna give you their names are you kidding me one of them actually said that i could and i said let me talk you out of that you don't want your name attached to any of this but i do want to hear your story and one of the one of the attendees was jewish the other you know jewish background now do you think that the jewish guy was marching with the tiki torch people saying you know jews must not replace us i mean seriously he was against the racist he just was there for rallying for the statues now you could argue that you shouldn't support statues because you know that alone is is racist i don't

[16:32]

you know that alone is is racist i don't support statues i think they're offensive and should be taken down the the the confederate ones and uh but you'd have to explain how it is as something like a quarter or a third of black citizens are in favor of keeping the statues if you can't possibly be a good person and want to keep the statues just for history even knowing that they're offensive to some people how do you explain that that quite a number of black people want to keep the statues are they not fine people the only way this hoax can exist is if you never talk to anybody who attended watch watch the people debunking the the debunking what they think is the debunk the people who are trying to say that the find the find people hoax was real that it really happened will only describe it from the perspective of the media reports at the time and they will say well there

[17:34]

at the time and they will say well there you go there's no there's no media report of the time of any fine people but i talk to them in person like i personally talk to them on you know the telephone but i personally talk to them and they tell me the story about showing up in one case they didn't know who organized it at all they had no idea who organized it but they knew there was something going on about statues they were local and they said well we're local we want to keep statues there's something about that going on we'll show up and give our you know give our opinion that's it were they marching with the races no they never got close to the marchers because the police stopped anybody coming in after a point and said don't go over there and so they didn't they were sort of trapped in a you know in a police confined area and then when it was over they all went home that's it now if the president was wrong about who attended that should be the story he was

[18:34]

that should be the story he was incorrect about who attended do you do you know who else was incorrect about who attended everybody every person who thinks this hoax is real is incorrect about who attended every one of them i know because i talked to him the president worst case scenario is in their category of not knowing who attended worst case that's it so joe biden tries to sell himself as the kind and caring guy the man with character and that he bases his whole campaign on the on the fine people hoax do i care that he's a lying piece of
not really i don't care if if biden is an
an i mean he's a politician's gonna be bad people i don't really care that he's a lying piece of but i do care that he painted a

[19:35]

but i do care that he painted a target on my back this is personal this isn't about politics anymore this isn't about the tax rate this isn't about any thing except this one of the worst people in the whole god damn world just painted another target on my back now it would be one thing if he had said it once i'd say well you know he tried it down it didn't work but making it the center piece of his whole campaign that is going to make me vote for the first time first time recently as you know i famously don't vote because i don't want to be biased i don't want to be on a team but i think this is not about politics anymore this is self-defense i'm going to vote for self-defense because this guy can't be in charge not with the race oaks now people can say what about trump

[20:37]

say what about trump what about the things he says that are not true well yeah he might say some things that don't pass the fact checkers maybe but are they ever like this this isn't like anything he's ever done he told you he wanted to keep crime out of the country and then that turned into he's a racist trying to protect your country is the job of the president it's the opposite of what joe biden is doing he's not trying to protect the country he's trying to tear it apart the fine people hoax is not like other lies it's the tentpole hoax that makes people who are stupid and believe the fake news think that it's all true because if they see this one's true they say well it must be true that the other thing they're saying about him is true it's the only one that they think they saw with their own eyes and heard with their own ears because it got edited so they don't hear the clarification and because they're sure that one's true

[21:39]

and because they're sure that one's true it makes all the other things that don't have actual evidence or any credibility to them whatsoever seem clearly true but worse it makes it seem like anybody who supports trump must clearly know that he was supporting these fine people and therefore it makes us look like joe biden if you're making your fellow citizens targets for violence and discrimination and you're doing it intentionally you are not worthy of being a citizen in this country much less a leader you have not qualified at the basic level of understanding the god damn constitution which should treat us equally and should not have you targeting your
fellow citizens for violence and for discrimination you goddamn piece of and it's worse it's worse than that here's why it's worse i just wrote a blog on locals that i share you can see this

[22:41]

locals that i share you can see this even if you're not a subscriber i shared it on twitter so you can see it
joe biden has introduced a new form of slavery that's right he just introduced a new form of slavery because this this fine people hoax has the intention of first of all winning the election duh but also to bind black people black voters to the democratic party if he does that and it looks like he's succeeding he has once again taken away all black political power if you live in this country and you're allegedly a citizen shouldn't you get some political power how about that how why do white people have political power why do they how come black people can have political power because you don't have any political power if you just vote democrat because joe biden told you the biggest lie in american history and you bought it you believed it

[23:41]

believed it because you watched cnn and you think it's news it's not news it stopped being news several years ago it's pure propaganda and you know who else is fox news fox news you are just as guilty as cnn no no better no better i will make exceptions for some of the hosts on fox news greg guffeld being a notable exception has called out this hoax but it's pretty clear that whoever is producing fox news is not too interested in killing this hoax it's pretty clear so whoever is running fox news you
you fix this you it's you know you've got the responsibility because you're the main the main vehicle or voice for the people who support trump where you used to be what the happened what the happened i turned on the news last night and i'm watching fox news talking about

[24:42]

and i'm watching fox news talking about what a great speech it is without talking about the center of the goddamn speech being the biggest race hoax and lie how the do you leave that out how is that not the most important thing to say about the whole event that he was tearing the country apart intentionally with a with a hoax how is that okay media matters is trying to debunk the debunk and acting as if there go those crazy right-wing people acting like it didn't happen when we all saw it on video yeah you saw the hoax video you
everybody saw the hoax because that's the one you show show the rest of it if you read if you read the media matters a piece that tries to debunk the debunk the debunk it actually includes the statement where trump says specifically he's not talking about the the racist they actually include that and act like you didn't see it it's the

[25:43]

and act like you didn't see it it's the most amazing thing i've ever seen in my life so joe biden you piece of don't try to sell us on character when that's the worst thing anybody's ever done as a politician in this country you can't find anything that trump did anything the nixon did that's worse than this nothing
all right i might have a few more things to say about this john avlon the douchebag on cnn who just says everything that republicans do is terrible he said this this morning empathy and decency may be the word most used in this convention really empathy and decency because those are the qualities that define biden let's take that as true let's say that according to the people who support biden

[26:43]

biden the qualities that define him are empathy and decency good that would be a reason not to make him the president let me explain to you what a good leader is
is a good leader is somebody who can do some hard stuff a good leader is tough you want a leader who has empathy but not as their guiding principle because if empathy is your guiding principle you're gonna get walked on china is gonna eat your goddamn lunch like they will if biden is president iran is gonna take over the middle east because you're a who's leading with your empathy and decency do you know what i want less of less of that for my commander-in-chief less of that yeah i want somebody who obviously cares you want somebody who wants what's good for the country but the presidency is unique you need a warrior there and somebody who's a warrior against your enemies

[27:44]

who's a warrior against your enemies not somebody who's a warrior against your own citizens which is what biden has literally promoted himself as being i will be the guy who demonizes half of the country elect me no i want him to demonize china who's sending boatloads of their goddamn fentanyl over here to kill our citizens while your son
son is taking a billion dollars from them disqualified dis qualified you shouldn't be a dog catcher in this goddamn country much less the president i want a president who has transparency and has married his own personal fate to the fate of the country you get that there is no scenario in which a president can do a shitty job and somehow it works out well for the guy who did the shitty job that's not a thing there's too much transparency too many people watching even in the room all the secret stuff it

[28:46]

in the room all the secret stuff it would all come out there is no scenario in which trump could even imagine in his head that there's something that would be good for him that's simultaneously bad for the country you want that guy you want a warrior who cares cares about the country trump obviously does and i would say that anybody who becomes president cares about the country that is the lowest standard you could throw a dart into a crowd and find somebody who cared about the country that's not hard you couldn't set the bar lower for joe biden do you know what they don't say when they're complimenting him oh they do say oh he's got some empathy and some decency but they don't say he's got capability they don't say he's got a good track record because he doesn't they don't say his brain is working because it isn't they don't say he could survive the first term because he can't

[29:48]

then of course he had his uh his uh incredible ideas for coronavirus which is to reword trump's actual current policy into angry dementia talk and act like it's not happening and he can depend on his lap dogs and the fake news to report it just the same way like trump isn't doing any of these things oh do you know what trump never thought of how about rapid testing
trump never thought of rapid testing did anybody not think of rapid testing that's biden's big improvement how about if we'll do i've got an idea how about doing rapid testing yeah nobody thought of that before if we could do that right away we'd be doing rapid testing now it should be noted that there's a different kind of test a the the paper strip kind of test that you don't have to mail anywhere and you don't need a machine it just changes color that kind of test the trump administration

[30:49]

administration has not told us why they won't use it and they won't tell us they will that's a failure if you if you'd like to see me being objective i would say that they have failed completely um so the yeah so let me let me keep my scorn all the places it belongs whatever the is happening with the fda and by the way trump needs to to explain this all right trump not talking about this topic of the paper test strips even to rule it out which would be fine if there's a reason to rule it out i'd like to hear it but not talking about it is disqualifying too if you don't hear trump talk about this in the next few weeks him too i'm voting for kanye seriously i'm going to vote for kanye if if i don't hear anything about these test strips because that's not even close to competent all right i think most of the other stuff with the coronavirus

[31:50]

other stuff with the coronavirus i'd say is as good as you could do under the situation but whatever that happens with these test strips which by the way is not what biden was talking about he doesn't know the difference between the types of tests he just said oh how about fast testing like we haven't thought of that no trump's got some explaining to do this is a fail without even at least talking about it the test strips specifically the paper test strips that don't require a machine and don't have to be sent anywhere to get a result
so apparently there was a big mistake by the
the anti-biden people in painting him as so incompetent that he couldn't appear in public and cnn
cnn managed to turn this into oh you know people and even fox news did this even fox chris wallace was saying anybody who thought biden would be you know unable to

[32:51]

biden would be you know unable to you know put his words together they were disappointed because you could see biden was perfectly capable that night perfectly capable at what he gave the shortest acceptance speech in modern history did you know that it was the shortest one coincidence is it a coincidence that the guy who might not have too much stamina also had the shortest acceptance speech could be a coincidence probably not and did anybody on the right believe that that biden was incapable of reading off a teleprompter what was essentially his stub speech that he's probably got memorized nobody really thought he was so gone yet that he couldn't read and stand all he did last night is stand upright for less time than any modern president before him or even candidate and read he read in public and what did this people on cnn do

[33:53]

this people on cnn do they had tears in their eyes oh it was the best speech joe biden has ever done he's unified the country we have finally found real leadership all he did was stand for a little bit and read a teleprompter and now he's the best politician who ever lived i think we set the bar a little too low let me remind cnn and all the idiots over there as well as a fox that the bar is can he do things that are new that's the question nobody's really questioning whether he can read i don't know if anybody has said he's so gone i don't know if he can read nobody said that
and you know it's a the cnn way to conflate things that don't belong together can you debate is a little bit different from can you read those are not

[34:53]

from can you read those are not similar tasks
all right um maybe that's all i needed to say
so once again i will be spending some part of my day debunking this stupid fine people hoax once again once again yeah fox news is not off the hook on this they got a lot of explaining for this frankly and i'm going gonna go register to vote i don't know how you do that i guess you do it online i mean i haven't done it in so long but i don't remember how it's even done so i'm gonna register to vote um if trump says something about this test strip idea then i'll vote for him if we don't hear anything about the test strips and you know other countries are using it and you know it just gets ignored

[35:55]

know it just gets ignored i'm going to assume there's something wrong just something wrong and i'm going to vote for kanye i'll write it in but i'm not going to vote for joe biden all right yeah he can ride a bike and he can drive biden could ride a bike and he can drive a car for a block we're very impressed with him all right i've got to go check on whether i need to
to evacuate or when because as i said the fire is approaching my house and it doesn't make me happy and i'll talk to you later
