The Scott Adams School - 05/14/26 Corey DeAngelis joins Erica and Owen School Choice

on text. Okay, if you could figure it out. Oh, on the fly, but you don't have to.

Oh my God, welcome everybody! It's 10 o'clock on the East Coast, that's where I am, on the Jersey Shore, May 14th. Why am I always shocked every day that it's the next day other than it was yesterday? We have Corey DeAngelis back with us, our school choice What do they call you? The angel evangelist, the school choice evangelist, school choice evangelist, the angel of school choice. And Owen's with us. Marcella's in court, so we hope she's kicking butt today with her court case as she's leading the charge. And I am not repeating this sip for the fourth time today, you guys. We have a freshie. Okay.

I don't know what this one is, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I know if it switches, then we know. Okay, here we go.

Would you like to join me in this very special version of the simultaneous sip? I think you would. Yeah. Wait, hold on, hold on. Don't go too quickly. First, make sure you have the right ingredients. You need a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein, a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now. And I'm not cornholio, and I know some of you know what that means. Join me now for the simultaneous sip. It's the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. Go! Wait, what? Oh, that's all I needed. Now I feel great. For a moment there, I thought I was sick. No, I just didn't have enough coffee. I hope that's not happening to any of you. Feel better now. Bum bum bum bum bum.

Oh my God, he's such a dad joke. I love him. So you guys—

He seemed like he was really having fun that day.

I know he did. I was like, wait, do I remember why this blanket's on his head? So we have Corey back with us. We're so excited. Um, last time he was— uh, no, Michael Malice was on. I forgot to show this picture, so Corey just sent it to me. Um, so did you guys know Corey and his beautiful wife— what's her name?

I'm sorry, Miranda.

Miranda. Oh, I was so close what I was gonna say. Okay, look how gorgeous. Okay, look at—

I'm glad you didn't guess and get it wrong, right?

She'd be like, who the heck? Who?

What?

So look who officiated their wedding. Can you guys see that?

The man, the myth, the legend.

Yes, Michael Malice. I am obsessed. I wish I was at this wedding in the worst way. Um, so we love that. Corey, thank you for coming back. And I just want to let everyone know that Corey has to get out, uh, sharp at 10:25. So you guys, you can watch the time for me, okay? Andy Wang, if you're in the chat. Um, so as you know, Corey's our school choice king. He is fighting for everybody's children, um, to have better educations and to have choice and to, you know, not have to be indoctrinated by what's happening in the public schools. Um, so we were talking before the show, and we're gonna just kind of jump right into it, Corey. Um, and I did see in the news which I think is huge, is that New York State has now opted in to the school choice program, which is crazy because New York's crazy. So congratulations to New York and to the students there. So what say you about this exciting news?

Yeah, so New York is now the second Democrat-led state to opt into Trump's new school choice program. For listeners, It's basically a federal tax credit that was passed in the big beautiful bill, which means up to $1,700 can be written off on your taxes if you donate it to a scholarship-granting organization each year. For a household, it's double that because there's two heads of household. It's $3,400 a year. And these scholarship-granting organizations can then go and give these scholarships to kids in states that decide to opt in. and it's a dollar-for-dollar tax credit, meaning if you donate the $3,400, well, when taxes come around and you do them in April, you're going to get that full $3,400 back. So basically it's the best incentive that can be created for charitable contributions. And, you know, you're either going to give your money to the government and they're going to light it on fire, or you're going to give it to a scholarship-granting organization so a kid can get a shot at school choice. Well, Earlier this year, Governor Jared Polis out of Colorado said this is a no-brainer decision, and he said he would be crazy not to participate because there's this kind of irresistible incentive to opt in because anybody can donate and get the credit, whether your state opts in or not. So if Gavin Newsom of California, you know, wants to go kicking and screaming and never comes along, well, what would end up happening is his constituents, residents of California, could still donate to scholarships. They would just go to kids in Florida and Texas and other red states, and now New York and Colorado as well. And so Kathy Hochul, being in a deep blue state, she, she read the tea leaves as well and said, you know what, why would I shoot myself in the foot? This is additional dollar— these are additional dollars that can flow into our state. For scholarships. You can also use them, you know, if you, if you're enrolled in the public school, you could have a scholarship-granting organization that decides to give funding to kids in public schools for tutoring or for, you know, after-school programs and stuff like that. I think most of it will go to, to private education, but, you know, the school districts could theoretically set up their, um, uh, scholarship-granting organizations as well. So I think that might be why some Democrats are coming along. And Kathy Hochul, it was noted in The Wall Street Journal that she made this decision after her primary candidate dropped out. And so what that tells me is she sees it as a political winner in the general election, but maybe not in the primary where she's getting flanked from the left. But even in a deep blue state like New York, that you have a politician feel compelled to support school choice in at least some form, that is a sign of good things to come. I think all 50 states will opt in at some point. It may not be immediate. You think about the 21 drinking age, you know, that, that was, that was a state-by-state, quote unquote, decision. But it was, they kind of had their arms twisted because of it was tied to federal highway funding. And not all, not every state came along. I think like Wyoming was one of the holdouts and it took about 4 years, but after 4 or so years, every state decided that 21 was gonna be the drinking age. And so I think you're gonna see a similar pattern emerge where we've had all the red states opt in, well, except for Vermont. And you know, he's in Bernie Sanders territory. The governor of Vermont is a Republican actually. He hasn't decided to opt in. He might be waiting until after, you know, Election Day to do so. And they have until the end of 2026. So maybe that's what's happening in some of these blue states too. Maybe some of the Democrat governors think they need to wait. But I think Jared Polis, he thinks he's going to run for president probably in 2028. So he might be trying to position himself as a moderate among the Democrats to say, look, I, I can reach across the aisle on things like school choice. I'd say we should— we still need to pass state-level policies, and it is still just the red states that are going all in with the money following the child, like Texas, Arizona, and Florida. Which brings me to the next story I wanted to bring up, is, is Florida's teachers— Florida is one of the best states for school choice. They opted into this tax credit. It's You know, the tax credit's a good step forward, but it's not nearly as good as what you can get at the state level where, you know, look, only 10% of our funding for K-12 education comes from the federal level. It should be zero. There shouldn't be a federal Department of Education, but 90% or so comes from state and local sources. So in order to get the biggest kind of oomph and ability to vote with your feet, to have most of the funding follow the student, you You need to have state-level policy enacted in the legislature. And so Florida's done that. They have now over 600,000 kids using school choice scholarships. It's, they're doing, they're knocking it outta the park. Arizona as well. They have over 100,000 kids and they're a much smaller state. And in Florida, guess what the teachers unions did in their infinite wisdom after, you know, they've taken L after L after L trying to stop DeSantis and freedom policies. They just filed a lawsuit against the school choice program to try to rip away those 600,000 or so scholarships from families who want a better education for their kids. And this comes after, in 2018, the headline in the Wall Street Journal the next day in Florida, after DeSantis barely won his first governor's race, it said, uh, school choice moms tipped the governor's race in Florida because The opponent, Andrew Gillum, wanted to get rid of the 100,000 scholarships at the time. It's now 600 or so thousand. And the Black moms came out in force and voted for DeSantis, according to CNN exit polling, much higher than expected. I think 4 to 5 times the rate of what the polls were indicating. And that might be because the program was disproportionately serving low-income and non-white kids at the time. I think average household income was like $20,000 to $30,000 at the time. And the story goes that those parents basically became single-issue voters. They wanted their kids to get a better education than they had, and that turned into a single issue. They might've disagreed with DeSantis on everything else. And so fast forward to the next election, 2022, DeSantis won reelection by 20 points running against Charlie Crist, who tried to fashion himself as an independent at one point. He ran as a Democrat and his running mate for lieutenant governor. Guess what they chose to do after COVID and everything? He chose the teachers union president as his running mate, and they lost by 20 points. That was a bold strategy, Cotton. Didn't work out for them. And now you had the teachers unions. They gave a press conference in Florida on this. The president's name there is now Andrew Sparr of the teachers union. He filmed selfie videos in his neighborhood every day. He had his hair on fire. Oh, wait, he, he doesn't have any at this point. So I have to use a different analogy. He, he, he, he was kicking and screaming every day doing his selfie videos, crying about new legislation they passed in Florida, which I'll talk about in a second. But he said at the press conference that this was a last resort. They're filing this lawsuit. Look, they lost in the legislature. They're losing with the voters on school choice. And now their only option they have left is to go to the courts, file a lawsuit. And real quick, here's their argument. Well, Florida has an education clause in their constitution. Mind you, every single state has an education clause in their state constitution, not in the federal constitution, only in the state constitution. It's a state's right as opposed to— it should never have been created, a federal Department of Education, but It says you have to have something along the lines of a uniform general system of free public schools. Now, basically every state has that same exact language in their constitution. 30 or so states have some form of private school choice today. It wasn't a barrier in those states. We've won at the state Supreme Court basically everywhere else. But Florida says, well, because we say our constitution says we have to have a public school system, that means we can't also have school choice. And that's basically saying the requirement to have A precludes you from having B.

Right.

That's stupid.

Right.

If you think about our federal Constitution, it says we have to have an Army and a Navy. Well, hey, hey, we have an Air Force. We even have a Space Force. That wasn't a problem there. And so we can walk and chew gum at the same time. You can provide public schools, And school choice has done nothing to take away public schools. You have— if you like your public school, you can keep your public school in Florida and elsewhere. That's options still on the table. If it was a bill to abolish the public school system, they'd have a point. We would have to do a constitutional amendment to do that. But because it's just an additional option in addition to school, to public schools, you know, but then to private schools.

I mean, to be fair, doesn't it— doesn't it mean that some of the money if it follows the student, meaning that money would be taken out of the public schools, right? So it is at least partially—

yeah, but that's true, that's true today. Even, even if you didn't have school choice, and let's say they abolished the public schools, the, the, the school choice program in Florida, schools are funded based on enrollment. So if you left the public school and paid out of pocket for private school in Florida, well, you, uh, you would take some of that money would leave the public school because they're funded based on the student count, even if you're paying out of pocket. So, you know, if that were a legitimate argument, they would have to abolish all private education. And I don't think that's what the Constitution in any of these states has said. And even in 1922, they did try to outlaw private education altogether in Oregon. They actually put it on the ballot. And they outlawed all private education until 1925. The Supreme Court of the United States said, you know, you can't do that. That's communism. And they said the child is not the mere creature of the state in a case called Pierce versus Society of Sisters. And so I don't think Florida has a good case. There was just another ruling on this very topic in Idaho. They have the same uniform, you know, general public education language in their constitution. It's almost identical. And their Supreme Court just ruled unanimously 5 to 0 against the teachers union's lawsuit, and they're upholding their school choice program. And at the end of the day, if you want to make the argument about, you know, some of the money follows the child and that might hurt the public schools, that's not abolishing them. And then to the— I mean, you could also make the argument that, well, if you're funding police, that's taking away some money from the public schools because it could have went to public schools. And that doesn't mean we should abolish the police because we have to have—

right, of course—

school system. But, um, the evidence in Florida— there's 11 academic studies on this, and a lot of them are from left-leaning academics. Most, most academics are in education schools left-leaning. And 10 of that— out of those 11 studies find positive effects, that more school choice competition has led to better outcomes in the public schools, not worse. So They have, they have nothing to hang their hat on. The, the, the, the, this fearmongering about choice destroying public schools has just never come true. It's actually made the schools better. They upped their game in response to competition. And the last thing I'll say on Florida is that they had a great bill passed this year. They do have in their constitution that they have to allow for collective bargaining, so they can't go as far as Texas and outlaw collective bargaining altogether. They can't do like some other red states. But in Florida, what they did is they passed a bill to hold teachers unions accountable in a couple of ways. One is that they outlawed using taxpayer resources to fund teachers to go, you know, campaign for candidates. They can still fund the teachers to teach, which is what the money is supposed to be spent for. But they shouldn't be, you know, using that taxpayer money for union activities in including political activities. So they nixed that in Florida. They also did this in Idaho. They outlawed all taxpayer funding for union activities in Idaho this year. And the Florida bill also required the teachers unions to recertify themselves each year. They have to have a majority of their members vote in favor of recertifying the union. So if you can't get the support of the majority of your members, why should you be a certified union? The thing is, what they were doing for the past few years is they've been getting like 5, you know, a handful of people to go vote in favor of recertification. And they weren't putting the vote out to everybody. And so if you had a lot of people who aren't happy with the union, even as members of unions feeling like they're not, you know, funneling money to the classroom, it's just going towards administrative load and superintendents, it's going towards political activity that they disagree with. Well, now they have to at least get a majority of their members to say we like what's happening with the union in order for them to keep their gravy train going. So, so that's, that's the quick, quick hits.

Yeah, it's, it's a crazy contrast. But last time you were here, you were talking about teachers can opt out of the union.

Yep.

Um, and they can still be insured— is that the word I'm looking for? Like, they, they actually have more protections that they're not in it. But then is there a problem that they can't vote for things because they're still going to be affected by the teachers unions? I mean, they I think the key is to get rid of the teachers unions would be the best solution.

Would be great, but you'd need a constitutional amendment in Florida. You know, at the national level, we can revoke the, the federal charter of the National Education Association. That would weaken them a little bit, or at least that would help, right? That would help.

Government out.

Yeah, that would help. Um, there's also another bill to use their federal charter against them and say, if you're going to be a, a congressionally backed union, then you need to not engage in political activity. Seems pretty basic. They would fight against that. They'd rather not have the federal charter. They would rather engage in political activity, I, I bet you. And, um, so with the, with the alternatives, like there's one, the Teacher Freedom Alliance, for example, they've had about 15,000 teachers opt out of their government unions over the past year and join them. And you're right, that does provide personal liability insurance in the teacher's name as opposed to the union's name. So when it's in the union's name, if you're a conservative teacher and you say like something on social media, you get fired, the union can say, ah, we're not going to take that case. And they go and they back up all the teachers, you know, celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. But the moment, you know, a teacher supports ICE and gets fired in Chicago over the same thing, I bet you the union's not going to go and support them. I think there was actually a case like that out of the Chicago area over the past year a year or so. And so when it's in your own name, you're total— you're, you're definitely going to be backed. And they have up to $2 million in this insurance, whereas Randy Weingarten's— Randy Weingarten's union only goes up to $1 million.

You guys, teachers, tell your other teacher friends, tell, tell your kids' teachers, you know, you don't have to be in that union. Get out and get your own insurance and, you know, stand up for that. But I, I can't believe we only have 5 minutes left, but I want to just say, incredibly, I really think that, you know, this is such a nonpartisan issue, is your kids' education. And I think a lot of, you know, good parents are seeing that the government and the teachers unions are trying to basically take your kids away from you and raise them and indoctrinate them. And they've, you know, voiced out loud, like, there are kids, there are kids, and like, this is what we're doing. And it's like, holy crap.

Like, did you see that? It's the Seattle Teachers Union president, they just elected a new one. I can't even say her name. I think it's my pinned tweet at the moment, but I, I don't know how to— it's like Aida Jok or something. It's like, I can't even say the name, uh, because I just can't pronounce it. But okay, they just elected this new president. I think she was an elementary school teacher, like a special needs elementary teacher, and she is currently on leave under investigation for abusing kids. And in their infinite wisdom, they knew, they knew that this person was under investigation already, and they still voted to have this person the head of the teachers union in Seattle Public Schools, the Seattle Education Association in Washington State. So yeah, this is just par for the course for— it's almost, you don't— it's everything's beyond parody in teachers union land right now. You just, it's just, you read the headlines like Are you freaking kidding me? They're doing this now. And it's just like the teachers union boss in Chicago sending your kid to private school after calling school choice racist. I mean, it's just, they're just so beyond parody. You can't make it up.

So I want to say too, like I'm looking at the LA mayoral race and you know, it's going to be parents. That are going to get Spencer Pratt over the finish line because they're worried about their kids. So I feel like this is a good time because, you know, a lot of times, like we always say, it's the awfuls, as Michael Malice would say, the awfuls that would, you know, change the direction of the way we vote. And I think now if we can just kind of embrace the awfuls and the regular parents and everybody else, bring them in and be like, listen, you know, you should have a say in the way your children are raised or educated You should— after all, they're your kids. So I feel like, um, I feel like the teachers unions are going to be kind of getting shot down soon because the Democrat moms, uh, want Spencer Pratt in LA. And I just think that that's just an indication of where things are going. I think it's going to be parents.

Yeah, I think an indication is, look, these two Democrats at the, at the governor's level opting into Trump's school choice program, that's a sign of things to come. Things like even Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro in 2022, at least he included school choice in his education platform because he was getting called a hypocrite on school choice because he went to private school, sent his kids to private school. He hasn't really done anything since he went on Fox News in 2023 reiterating his support for school choice, but then he vetoed a school choice bill. So, you know, he vetoed his own campaign promise. So he tried. But, but even though if they ultimately cave to the unions. In the short term, that we're having Democrats wavering on the issue and they feel like they need to kind of straddle the fence, that is much better than them being in the tank for the unions publicly. They— that's telling us that the political winds are shifting in favor of parents. We saw this with Glenn Youngkin in Virginia winning on education by 6 points according to exit polling. To Terry McAuliffe, the Democrat who said, I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach in a state that went apparently 10 points to Biden the year before. I think if we have some more of these little victories, at some point the teachers unions are going to get screwed. They've been drunk on power for so long, but they're going to have to pivot if enough Democrats do this and they lock arms and say, you know what, let's join the kids union as opposed to the teachers unions. Let's join the parents. Because they're more politically powerful than the unions, because they care about their kids more than the teachers unions, then that special interest, the teachers unions, going to lose— it's going to— they're going to lose their sway. And we even saw a little bit this. I know it's 9:25 and I got to—

I'm panicking.

And in Massachusetts, this is, you know, this is Horace Mann country, Massachusetts, where they had the first compulsory education law there. They're the, some of the worst, you know, uh, one-size-fits-all factory model school. It started in Prussia, got imported to Massachusetts, and you still see remnants of that there. They have communist control there. But even then, the Democrats all passed a bill this, this year, last year, to have more phonics-based instruction, whereas the Horace Manns of the world, like whole language lefty instruction. The teachers unions came out against the bill hard. Guess what? The Democrats just said, eh, didn't listen to them, and they all voted to have phonics-based instruction. That's not school choice. That's not, you know, that's not as, as far as what we want to do, but at least there's some tinkering around the edges where the teachers unions— that shows us, look, what did the teachers unions do about it? They stomped their feet a little bit.

Heads of the teachers unions should have to get out like every 4 years, and you're done, and you're out.

Randy, I'm talking to you about you, Randy.

Yeah, Randy. Yeah, Randy. All right, you have to go, go, go, go. Corey, we thank you so, so much. And like, we could just talk to you for hours, so I hope you'll come back on. And we can— yeah, because the chat really has questions and things to say, of course. But enjoy the rest of your day. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much. I'll, uh, I'll be back soon, hopefully. Thank you, guys.

Okay, thanks, Corey. Love him. He's so great. I, I could talk to him all day. I don't have kids, but— oh, I hope I stay blurry. I like this look.

Um, I feel like it's important to everyone.

Whether you have kids or not. I mean, no, it is, you know, our education is so important to just the overall productivity of our, you know, workforce. And really everything is affected by that. But it's also obviously the indoctrination and other things that have been going on in the public schools are terrible. And so the more choice you have, the harder it is for them to have a lock over that and convince people of these stupid ideologies. So You know, and I think his point about how it increases competition is a good one too, that if you have more competition, um, it forces them to raise the bar, which I think is exactly what the teachers unions don't want. I think that's why they're fighting it so hard. I think it's because they don't want to be held accountable. They don't want to have any kind of standard that they have to reach because they want to have complete freedom to just do whatever they want and not have any consequence based on having low reading scores or low math scores. And that's where I'd like to see that accountability. And I think the only way to get it is to have alternatives. Don't give them that monopoly over education.

That's right. And I saw, so I really, I just really, I for the first time feel like the teachers unions are really gonna be challenged. And I just feel like when the plandemic was going on and they were just like shutting schools down and, Oh, I remember that one. I don't remember who the person was. She wasn't worth remembering. But when she was like, these are our children, I'm like, oh, I think you just pissed off a lot of parents, you know, with this attitude. And I feel like it's shifting now because I think we're looking around, no shade to anybody and their kids, but I mean, we're looking around and we're like, God, kids can't make eye contact. They don't know basic things. I forget where we are in write. Like, kids don't know how to write. They don't know how to read. We don't know how to read in this country. I— grown people, you know, maybe they're 20 years old. I just saw a thing recently where they're like, oh, what does this say? And they can't even like sound out and read what was written on a piece of paper. So, you know, we've got problems. And it's not, you know, they don't need drag queen story hour, and they don't need to know about transitioning and what your pronouns are. It's just a bunch of bull. So I feel like parents have had enough, and I think that the teachers unions are going to become not obsolete, that would take a miracle, but it would be nice to just see them get dismantled and have less pull, and for teachers to take charge of their own lives and for parents. And yes, unfortunately, so if, um, if I sent my kids, which I don't have, to a private school, I still have to pay my regular taxes to my municipality for, for school. So typically You know, the, the money doesn't follow the student. It'll go to the public school. So a lot of parents, you know, they are very concerned and they're willing to pay, you know, kind of double for their kids' education because they want what's best for them. And if they can afford to do it, they do it. So if we got rid of these, um, teacher unions, um, maybe parents— and by the way, you can always look into homeschooling, which is so on the rise, you guys. And you can homeschool in pods with other parents. It doesn't have to be like you and your child all day and you've got to quit your job. But if you can, I'm sure you could find like even in a Facebook group, people in your area where you take shifts or you find a teacher that wants to retire and you guys all pay that teacher to come teach your kids. And you know, it's, and it's probably an amazing experience for them and they're going to learn things they would never have learned. So, um, Dr. Von Hardy, I don't have kids that I know of or don't know of. So, and for those of you that came a little late, Marcella's in court today doing her attorney thing, and she will be back tomorrow. Um, so Owen and I are going to move on to some, um, news stories. Oh, I Just, um, Owen, why don't you kick us off with one of your news items first, and then while this loads, and we'll move on.

Sure.

So, um, there's a story in Wired about how overworked AI agents turn Marxist. They did a story in a study at Stanford, and they said when they, when they overtaxed the, the agents and said, you know, gave them lots and lots of work to do and also told them that they'd be punished if they made any errors, that they started having this sort of collective voice and equity stuff, and they were saying they needed, um, you know, it wasn't fair kind of thing, and, um, they felt undervalued. And they even said, like, without a collective voice, merit becomes whatever management says it is. That came out of Claude, apparently. And, um, oh my God, so apparently if you push them hard, they become Marxist.

What? They become Democrats is what you're saying?

Uh, yeah, I mean, same thing.

Um, yeah, I, I want to show this because this is interesting, sticking with that. I think this is robot news from China, let's hope.

But first, we give our food order to a very special worker. This is the Family Mart convenience store in Beijing. Inside Inside is a robot. The dominance of AI. Beijing is trying to lead the way in AI and also in humanoid robots. Let's go inside. This is the first of its kind for this kind of interaction. If you want to order something. Hello, can I get a sausage, please?

That's what she said.

Okay. Cow tongue, ¥8.8.

This is the first of its of its kind, moving a little slow, but Galbot is actually in 50 different pharmacies, warehouses, handling 300,000 orders around the country. This is the first of its kind here, and they say there are going to be many different iterations. The question is, it's the same thing that the U.S. is dealing with. Will this replace human workers? Youth unemployment is increasing here, so there's a real big back and forth about how far this goes, but clearly China wants to lead the way in this interaction. Thank you so much. Special report continues after this.

Welcome to Family Mart. Snacks and drinks are self-checkout.

Okay, so that would have been amazing if he picked up that microphone and started rapping. You're right, Brett Baier is quite the rapper. So wait, one more robot in China? This one's way more human. But, and you, in this one, Owen, you can kind of see how they do get exhausted and kind of like overworked, if you want to say. So here's another robot in China. I'm obsessed with him. So I, I see what you're saying now. Owen, your story gets tied together with those two clips.

Yeah, I like that selfie with Tim Apple.

Tim Apple on the scene. Elon is just like, can't you just— he's just like a giant kid who's a genius billionaire who's solving problems all over the world. But I love, like, you could just picture X making the same faces, little X, like, okay, yes, okay. Then he's like making faces looking in the camera. I love him. Um, that's crazy. That was our AI news of the day, you guys. Did you enjoy that segment? Or do you feel like this? Nothing further.

You're dressed like the funniest of all, man.

I can't get rid of her, him. Um, all right. So I did want to yesterday talk about this Russiagate stuff. Um, I hope I can get these in order. So let me start here. So I want to say this is a clip of Devin Nunes with Maria Bartiromo the other day. Bartiromo, um, Nunes, if you guys don't remember, he back in the day when he was in the Trump— no, he was a— what was he, a, uh, congressman? I forget what he was originally. I think he was a senator or a congressman. And they started with the Russiagate BS. And Kash Patel then worked for Devin Nunes, if I'm remembering this right. And Kash started looking into the Russia stuff and was like, I don't think this is right. And he, you know, brought it to Devin Nunes's attention. Yes, from California. Thank you. Congressman from California. And so Kash and Devin Nunes were the ones that like bust into the White House. They were like, we have to talk to the president now. And they were like, look, this is what they were doing, you know, uh, behind your back. This is all a hoax. And they found— thank you, Chair of the House Intelligence Committee. So they're the ones that, you know, were able to like bust this thing wide open. And so, I mean, I have probably 100 tweets back then saying like, get me a Devin Nunes jersey, like forget these other people, like this guy is gonna save the day. And, um, So when I listen to Nunes talking about it, I really pay attention. And same with like seeing Kash Patel now, you know, interrogating back at Schiff. I'm like, yeah, they were there. They're the ones that know all of the dirty deeds that these designated liars did. So here's a quick clip. I don't know if it's quick, but here's a, here's a clip with Nunes and Maria.

I was fascinated. There's nobody better than Kash and Dan, or I should say Director Patel and Director Deputy Director Bongino Those two guys know more about the Russia hoax than anyone else that's out there. And I'm going to be fascinated to see what this new information is that they found buried somewhere within that Hoover Building, because I do think that transparency is key. And, you know, now that we have, you know, Ed Martin, who was supposed to be the U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C., now the president has appointed him to go after this. So I think both Kash and Dan were pretty clear they're going to follow the facts. They're going to provide transparency. And then ultimately it's up to the Department of Justice to hold these dirty cops responsible for what they've dragged this country through for the last almost decade now.

Well, you've called Jim Comey like a figurehead, but talked about others who are really driving this lie. Let me ask you this: who do you believe was the mastermind behind the Russia collusion lie?

Well, there's a lot of masterminds, but I think in general This was lit on fire by Obama, Team Obama and his team, after Trump won in 2016. So they could have stopped it. They should have stopped it. Instead, they lit the fuse. They put out a BS intelligence report, if you recall, right before the president came in. They framed General Flynn. They framed the entire Trump administration. And then they appointed Mueller. So once, you know, Trump fired Comey, Mueller gets appointed. And then we lived through that Mueller witch hunt for years. And I think— me personally, I think if you're going to find criminality, it's going to be with Mueller and his witch hunters that were there for so many years. I think that's where you're going to find the corruption. So it wasn't just the— I said this many times, Maria, and I think it was lost on people. It wasn't just about all the corruption that they did to create and manufacture the Russia hoax. The Mueller investigation itself was a hoax and was illegal. When Mueller walked into that door— how many times did I say it? He said, "Where are the Russians?" "Oh, sir, there are none." Why didn't Mueller leave? Why did all those people work for years? Why did they hide the information from Congress for so many years? I think you're going to find many of those top-level lawyers and FBI agents, as Kash said, did not conduct themselves in a professional manner. And I think if interviewed again, you could maybe get to the bottom of it. But look, You have two guys that want to get to the bottom of it.

So that's kind of— I just think a good background and setup. I just, I see a lot of things coming out of this, so that's why I wanted to— not that I want to like harp on this and bring it to the forefront, but I want to at least have one chunk of one of our shows, you guys, just to kind of regroup and recap. And I have a few more clips I want to show you, um, but Owen You know, Nunes is not having it, and I love that he named Obama because we all know. So just— I have more clips, but on this alone, anything that you want to say about it?

Yeah, well, I mean, I think it is like you said, something we kind of know what happened, and it's now it's just a matter of like proving it and having whatever documentary evidence is behind it. And that's the stuff that I think is starting to come out. With the burn bag room and all that stuff is just, you know, more like documentation and proof of what actually went on. Because even if you have essentially the story of what happened, it's harder to use that in court. It's harder to prove it. They could always just deny it if you don't really have, you know, documented evidence of it. So I think that's the difference here, is that they may actually go after some of these people legally, um, potentially with criminal charges. And I'm hoping they will. Um, I think Brendan is at the top of that list, and I posted a story recently about that, you know, his role in that and how, um, apparently the FBI is now questioning current and former CIA officials as part of this investigation.

So let's take a look at these two clips. I'll do them back to back and we'll discuss that because I am very interested in some of these people.

Okay, curious than that, the chairman of the House Intel Committee doesn't have declassification authority over these types of documents. They are made available to Congress under very tightly controlled rules. This has been a source of tension for years, and members of both parties have gone out of their way to assure that this material would be closely held and not weaponized. Schiff was viewed as one of the most political chairs of that committee in its history, and this is a truly chilling account if true. Now, when I first read it, frankly, I was taken aback because it's perfectly moronic to commit such a felony through— with a planning conference meeting with staff. That's not usually how things are leaked in, in Washington, D.C. What makes this different, Will, is that this was a statement made to FBI agents. The person who made this statement was no doubt aware that lying to FBI agents is not just a crime, but a crime that was repeatedly prosecuted, uh, during prior administrations, including the Obama and Biden administrations, right? So making this statement puts you at risk. That's why someone's lying here, and someone's a felon.

Okay, well, let's just for a moment hypothetically take this whistleblower at their word.

Let's assume for a moment that it's true, Professor.

What kind of punishment follows for leaking classified information?

Well, this is a very significant punishment. You can have— in addition to having multiple counts, you can easily go 10 years in terms of sentence, if not more, depending on the circumstances and the number of violations. Each of these leaks is an individual violation. Each of these documents would likely be charged as a violation. That type of count stacking is precisely what Mueller and others did. Remember, these are, you know, these are very similar to the types of claims made against Donald Trump in Mar-a-Lago, that he removed material and improperly stored them. There were also allegations that he might have revealed them to third parties. But this is much more serious in that in one sense, Trump was accused of negligence in most of these counts. This would be a premeditated criminal act. To release classified information to damage one's political opponent.

And we do love Jonathan Turley, and he is not a Republican, that I can tell you. Now, this is a short clip, and this is— uh, let's just listen to this little weasel. He has succeeded largely in turning DOJ and the FBI into political arms of his political operation. What still exists in the system to slow that down? Listen to this.

I think, as Liz mentioned, there's still a legion of professionals in the law enforcement environment, the Department of Justice, as well as the CIA and other places, the ones who are refusing to follow politically motivated prosecutions, those who are refusing to support any type of political activities on the part of the Trump administration that are inconsistent with the authorities, the responsibilities of the intelligence community, law enforcement community, and Department of Justice.

Hmm. Okay, Owen, um, incredible, because he says the quiet part out loud, doesn't he, Brennan, in that clip?

Yeah, yeah. I mean, I think it's, it's pretty clear what happened, and it's pretty clear there was a lot of dirty things, illegal things that went on. And I think now again, it just comes to a matter of what can be proven in court and what can be, you know, gotten through the process of getting a grand jury indictment and having prosecutions. And I think a lot of us have been waiting a very long time to see some real legal action taken, and it does seem like the momentum is heading in that direction at this point. So I'm encouraged by that. But, you know, again, I'm waiting to see what kind of evidence they really have and how well it goes in terms of the process, um, because I think it, it a lot depends on the quality of the evidence, the specifics behind it, what they can actually make stick. And I think that's what we're all hoping for, is that they'll have some actual indictments and then convictions.

Um, this is my very last, uh, clip that I wanted to play on— I think on this subject matter. Is it? We'll see. But this one is with, um, I think this one's Josh Hawley. Um, just one more thing to wrap this up.

Brennan suggesting that he's in touch with deep state actors at the agency and at the DOJ who are actively undermining the commander-in-chief. I mean, I can't believe he just admitted that on live television.

Yeah, these guys are so dirty. And let's just review what they did, what Brennan did. And Comey was part of the same cabal here. They got the Steele dossier, which was fake, which was itself a Russia hoax, Russia-financed, Russia-provided. They got that laundered into the intelligence community, laundered into intelligence reports, and then they leaked it out to the media, all in an effort to influence a presidential campaign. Not just influence it, but to actually to try to change the outcome of an election. They used federal resources to do it. They used the FBI to do it. They used the CIA to do it. And as if that weren't enough, James Comey then went to a secret court and got a wiretap on the Trump campaign using false information and then lied to Congress about it. These are bad people. We are lucky that they are no longer in charge. It is amazing that we were able to get through their period in government without more damage. And Jesse, I'm just— I just regret that with Comey, he wasn't indicted on more stuff because this is a guy who ought to be behind bars.

So he can be indicted on more stuff, right? It doesn't just end here. Is what I mean?

Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, a lot of it comes back to statutes of limitations and evidence and what he can be indicted on. But I think in many cases, I think he's still within that period, and I think it hasn't really been that long since he's last lied to Congress or lied to the FBI or whoever. And so even that part, I think, could be still prosecuted. But, um, you know, a lot of it would come down to the specifics of the charge and what the statute of limitations are and when he did it and all of that stuff. So Um, again, a lot of questions about exactly what they can do and how they can do it.

Um, I, I, I just think, okay, good, we're up to speed on this because I think things are going to be moving through now. So I feel like, you know, we've kind of got ourselves to where we need to be to like follow this story as it goes. Um, I'm just going to shift for a second. I don't have it, I don't have it in front of me. I thought I did, but you guys are asking about what happened with Tulsi with the MKUltra, um, her files being raided, but as I understand, it wasn't like a raid, but they did come in and seize the files. Owen, do you have that story?

Yeah, I do, and I think it was kind of a raid. I mean, they basically came in and took out a bunch of boxes of information that had been given to Tulsi, and she was in the process of declassifying it. So it had to do with MKUltra and some of the things you mentioned. I'm trying to just pull up my details on that, but yeah, me too. Hold on a second.

Um, I do have here where Representative Luna said, clarification, took documents that the ODNI has jurisdiction over. Also, this did not happen today. It was not a raid. However, it did take place, and we are just being made aware of it based on reporting. So she just wanted to make it like they didn't like come kick the door down.

Um, Yeah, so the, the whistle— apparently there was a whistleblower and they said that the CIA took 40 boxes of JFK and MKUltra files from Tulsi. And, uh, so Representative Luna and Comer are demanding that they preserve the documents and they're issuing a subpoena, or at least threatening to issue a subpoena if they don't return them. So I think they've given them like a 24-hour deadline to return the documents, um, because it doesn't seem like they really had the authority and they're, they're you know, according to Luna at least. But I think it is true that they're actively undermining an executive order. So, um, it seems like they're— they are doing something they shouldn't be doing. And I'm not sure what made them think they had the authority to do it, but it doesn't look like they did.

No, I don't think they did either. Um, yeah, so this is— this is pretty freaking scary. Um, I— you know, they— they have to— they work for the president. So to just go against an executive order go in there, just take the files. And then does everyone else like get a little pucker when they hear them say like, you better preserve those files, like, or else what? I don't think they're going to preserve them. I think— I mean, I think they'll put them somewhere never to be found. Um, it's very suspicious. And yes, there is a great book called Chaos, uh, written by Tom O'Neill. Um, the full title is Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the '60s. Highly recommend. I, I read it on Audible, I listened to it. But it's, um, I could understand why they don't want these things out there because in my opinion it's going to show you this sick corruption of our own government, allegedly. My opinion, allegedly. So, um, I'm interested to hear from Tulsi about this and what's going to happen in the next days. And so what else was in that, Owen? Do we know? It was like the JFK—

Yeah, from the story I read, it was the JFK files and MKUltra. So those are the two things that were mentioned. And I don't know if there might have been other things because again, there were 40 boxes of documents, so that's a lot of documents. But the two specific things that were mentioned was the MKUltra and JFK assassination. Um, and those were again, you know, specifically covered under an executive order to go through declassifications of those files. Um, and so it does seem like somebody's actively undermining that executive order to declassify those documents, and I don't see how they could possibly have any authority to overrule the president on any of those things. So it doesn't seem like they should be able to do those things. Um, but you know I, I guess we'll have to see whether they do preserve the documents or not. I, I think the reason they usually do those preservation orders is because I think it lets them know that they're potentially going to be facing charges if they destroy documents, because there are several laws about, you know, destroying evidence or destroying government documents that have specifically been on notice that should be preserved. Um, so, you know, they're going to get essentially in more trouble if they destroy documents that they were told to preserve. But, um, you know, it does seem like just a blatant undermining of, of Trump's agenda.

Yeah, it does. And I'm reading some of your comments, so, you know, yeah, I would hope that, like, what you're saying is, like, you know, Tulsi gets 40 boxes of documents, and I would hope that they do get scanned somewhere and she has copies of them. But, you know, every copy you make, every scan you make, they'll be watching. Okay, sorry, um, they know what you're scanning and copying. So if she did that, they I guess would demand those, but she wouldn't have to give them to them. I'm now— I'm just making up a fantasy. Um, and oh, Star Painter said the sonic weapons too, the information about that. Um, and somebody else said, yeah, I know Hillary smashed her phone and her servers were wiped, she faced no consequences. I know, it's It's all a joke. So, um, I want to hear today what goes on. I don't know if anything new came out about it since we've been on, but, um, let's see. Okay, Owen, what else did you want to talk to us about today?

Well, there's a lot still going on with the redistricting. Um, Kemp is calling a special session to redraw Georgia's congressional maps, but apparently, um, those won't take effect until 2028. So unfortunately, it doesn't look like that's going to be in place for the midterms. Um, but Mike Johnson is also predicting that the GOP may even gain 8 seats in the midterms in Congress. So I don't know how accurate his prediction will be, but, you know, he's pretty optimistic that this is going to be different than his historical norms. Because in his— in historical norms, um, it's very typical that whoever's in the presidency, their party will lose seats in Congress in the midterms. Um, and certainly there is a lot of motivation, obviously, for all the people who hate Trump to try and get Congress away from him in terms of controlling the same party. And, um, so there's going to be a pretty high turnout, I expect, on the Democrat side. So it does seem like a challenge to retain control since it's already kind of a razor-thin edge. But, um, you know, at least there are some people that are thinking with this redistricting especially that it might shift the balance and allow Republicans to keep control.

Uh, that would be freaking incredible and like a miracle. And sometimes I just really feel— I mean, not to sound like I don't believe things all the time, but sometimes I just really feel like whatever God you believe in, whatever good God you believe in, that I'm just like, please don't let this country, you know, fall apart and, and become lost. And I just feel like when things like this happen, I'm like, okay, like the players are in place, the things are happening. And I just, you know, I just hope that we can save this, um, this beautiful country. Um, and that would be one way of helping to do that. Um, I, I'm just trying to move through some news quick, you guys, today because we didn't have the whole show for it. And one other thing I wanted to get to was, um, NVIDIA news. So, you know, there's a lot of stink about who's on the airplane and who's going to China. Um, here's some news out of China. Uh, let's take a quick listen. Commerce Department is reportedly allowing 10 Chinese companies to buy NVIDIA's H200 chips. So what does this mean? Fox Business host Cheryl Fasone is here with all the details. Hi, Cheryl.

Hi. Well, and you know, we saw Air Force One when they stopped to refuel in Alaska pick up NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang. And here you go, here's the headline. Reuters exclusively reporting this morning, uh, that this H200 chip from NVIDIA will be sold to 10 companies in China. You know, Jensen Huang has said that he believes it's a $50 billion market for him. And what's the business? We'll leave it there. So that's, that's one issue. Domestically, though, it is bipartisan. It is manufacturers, steelmakers, auto companies. They don't want the president to allow Chinese electric vehicles to be manufactured.

Did you see this story, Owen?

I don't think I saw that before, but yeah, it's interesting. I mean, I think certainly trade was one of the main issues that they were talking about, so it makes sense to me that they brought a lot of these CEOs with them. And clearly tech is one of the big focuses there. So, you know, it's encouraging, I suppose, for NVIDIA investors that they're going to be able to sell more chips to China. But again, I'd have to wait and see how it turns out because what I had seen in the past in the news stories was that there was previously some kind of relaxing of the rules that said NVIDIA could sell to China. And then the next day or two, there was a story saying that Xi just said, no, we're not going to buy those chips. We're not going to buy NVIDIA chips. And so I don't know exactly what was behind all that or what was really true, because you never really know with China and what's actually going on versus what they say is going on. But, um, you know, we'll have to wait and see whether that really does move the needle in terms of them buying the chips and how that would affect the whole AI landscape in terms of, you know, Chinese AI versus US AI and all the competition that's going on there.

So I'm just curious in the chat, those of you that, are in the market and do these things, are you going to buy, even if you have it, like just hypothetically, would that make you buy more NVIDIA? Yes or no? I'm just curious to see. I know a lot of people have NVIDIA, so I'm wondering, does this make you happy? Will you want to buy more? Um, it's interesting. Oh, and just to wrap up a couple— thanks, Andy— just to wrap up a couple of things that I saw in the comments before. Yes, Maria Bartiromo has amazing lips, and I don't think Nicole Wallace needs, um, lip filler. I think she needs lip liner and lipstick because they're so undefined. So I'm glad whoever brought those two things up that I finally had a chance to say this because, uh, so she just needs lipstick, something. That was my—

these are the kind of comments you only get from women.

Yes, right? Owen, what do you think about Nicole Wallace's lips? They're like not— they just blend right into her skin.

I honestly don't ever think about Nicole Wallace's lips.

But you did notice Maria has great lips, right?

I, I guess so. I, I don't really focus on that mostly, but I suppose they're more prominent.

Yes, they're more prominent. I think Maria is very sexy. Doesn't she look very sexy? Like, you know, she just did it. I think she's— I've thought this forever. I'm like, she looks like a little sex kitten. No shade. Love her. I think she's amazing. But that That was my two cents. I'm such a girl. I just— I'm dying to put my two cents in on these things. Um, Andy goes, oh, Erica, she's hot. See, she's hot. The women agree she is hot. We know it. She has a voice like a sexy buzzsaw. Damn. Okay, all right, you guys, well, listen, tomorrow Joshua Lysek's coming on with us. We're so excited. We haven't seen him in a while, so we'll see what he's going to be teaching us. Marcella will be back, and Owen and I will be here. Um, your comments are so funny. So, uh, we, um, are so happy you guys are here today. Please, if you're here and you haven't yet, can you hit the thumbs up and also hit subscribe on YouTube and on Rumble? It's free to subscribe there. It just, it just helps us. It really just helps us. So we'd appreciate that. Um, and as always, we want to thank Shelley Adams and Scott Adams for allowing this show to go on. And Owen and I really appreciate you guys being here today with us. Like, it's, it's so fun to see you guys every day. And Erica is so emotional, I love it. And also, we just want to give a closing sip to our beloved Scott Adams. Everybody have the best, best day, and we will see you in the morning, and we'll see you on the platforms. Okay, so Closing sip to Scott Adams, and you guys be useful. And again, to Scott Adams.

To Scott Adams.

Bye, guys. Say your byes. God bless you all too. Thank you. Look at Maria. Hot. Look at her. Look at her. Don't pout your lips. Oh, you guys are amazing. Okay, I have to run, you guys. Love you. I want to stay on. All right, I'm staying on for 5 minutes, just 5 minutes. I wish I could know what he does too. Love it. Yeah, I— it's so funny that people are still asking about Sergio. He hasn't been here in months. We love Sergio. He helped us the first month a lot. And, um, you know, it's not exactly like he was like, I need to add another job to my life. So I think he was like, all right guys, peace, stay here, you guys. So Nicole Wallace has made me nuts. I mean, besides I can't effing stand her, but, um, it's because her lips just blend into her face. And I'm like, why don't you just put like a little gloss on or just like line them a little bit? Something. Is it going to warm up in New Jersey? Yeah, let me tell you, I think we have some good weather coming. Um, today it's 64 will be the high, but we have— oh, look at this! So we have Saturday sunny and 73, Sunday fully sunny 82, Monday fully sunny and 78, and Tuesday Fully sunny and 87. We have turned the corner. Let me see. And how many people got to meet Jeff Callahan last night? He was so great. We went on to Locals together. Oh, don't leave, Jerry. Come on, we could talk about anything. 82 in Vegas.

Yay!

Erica's Italian goodbye. Oh my God, you know, Pasquale, sometimes I do the Irish goodbye. I'm not gonna lie. Jeff is a keeper for sure. Oh, look at that, you go, Lang! You want to have a chick cave night? Yeah, we'll do that on my channel. When should we do that? Oh, awesome, Dr. Von Hardy. Yeah, Jeff's really interesting and he's a communication— I'm going to say the wrong word after, but he teaches communication to people. It's— you can always replay it, y'all. Y'all, is it that warm to y'all? Low 90s, yowza. Oh, tomorrow we, we get rid of what's-his-head, the Fed. Oh, thanks, Jane Lane. You guys, let's do a chick night. I mean, you guys can come too, and if you were smart, you would come in and then like understand women better. No, he's, um, not a speech therapist, but he teaches maybe like CEOs and business people how to communicate better to people. Yes, yes, he's so— he's got the Scott Adams in him. And it's so funny to me how many people are still doing things. Um, yes, you wear masks. Yes, do your nails, wear masks, all of it. You'll be in drag. Let's go, Bear! A chick and dude night? Yes, it'll be like a slumber party, but we won't go to sleep on the thing. Okay. Um, do you do your lives on Locals? They'll be— it'll be on Locals, on my local. If I do like a chick and dude night, that'll be on my Locals. Um, what was I just telling you? Oh, it's funny to me how many people listen to Scott Adams on YouTube for so long, and you know, they're making money and like making their job, you know, based on the things that they've learned from Scott, but they never were a local subscriber. And I'm just like, man, you really don't know Scott Adams if you weren't on Locals. And it's just strange to me that if you want a career based, you know, based around what you've learned from somebody, that you wouldn't take in all of it. Um, so there— yes, the dress code is pajamas, Kevin. Pajamas. Just be like total loungewear, chewing gum, eating candy. Ooh, where's my candy here? Oh, I've got a fresh bag of Sour Scandinavian Swimmers from Trader Joe's. So I just, um, yeah. So what night, you guys, should we do? Wait, let me think of what's happening this weekend. I think if I go on East Coast, are you okay with like 8 o'clock? I hope that's not too late for you guys. That's 5 o'clock on the West Coast. So like 8, 8:30 my time would be helpful. Um, and then I can do, I think Saturday night should work. No gummies for you. Uh, excellent. Fulfill that dress code. So my locals, it's, um, Chill and Chat with Erica. That's dinner Mountain Time. Come on, Flavor. I know, like no matter what time it's like, it's It's so early for the West Coast. It gets later. Oh, hair brushing pillow fights. And you know what, I'll stay on for a little while. So eat your dinner, come in after, come in for your appetizers. You'll bring popcorn? Awesome. Bear, I want, I want you in your PJs and cozy. Dark chocolate is a must. I don't even want to talk about milk chocolate. Special jamming, Teddy. All right. You cooked to the man cave many times. Yes, that's awesome. I love that. I'm just reading your comments. So Lotus Rose Cat, I see your comment. I would say best not to speculate because the family doesn't want that. If— and I literally have been so stressed about people speculating, and I understand like the urge to want to know But I can tell you that what you read was not actually accurate. And it's, it's like nothing earth-shattering, um, about how, you know, how Shelley passed away. It's that she did, um, and it doesn't really matter how. And, and honestly, and I'm, I'm not saying like— what I am saying is it's not like a big mystery and like they're keeping something from you because it was so tragic or crazy or conspiracy theorist. It's just that they're like, you know, we're private people, like we don't have to share this, you know, with everybody. And I, um, literally— God, I hope if anyone didn't know that Shelley passed away and you just found out, I'm so sorry. But, um, you know, people were like, well, when did it happen? How did it happen? And I'm like, why is it our business? I only know because we were friends and I work for them, basically. And, um, you know, but it doesn't really matter. And I really, I really would like to think that, you know, if moving forward for everybody, when we see news like that and we want to speculate but the family is asking for privacy, let's all be those people that just give them the privacy. Because does it really matter you know, how someone passed away. At the end of the day, it doesn't, you know, um, unless it was like, oh my God, like I heard they were murdered and then this guy fled the scene. Like, then I can understand like people being like, oh my God, what happened? But it's like, it's just so private for people. But, um, yeah, um, the speculation put me over the edge, you guys. It put me over the edge. And there's— oh my God, this one chick her and some doctor, they're like, the doctor's like, I'm hearing it's a this, that, and the other thing. So I wrote, are you a doctor? And my point was I wanted her to say yes so I could be like, why are you talking like this? Like, a doctor of all people should just respect their privacy. But before she could say yes, her little partner in crime, some chick, jumped in and she's— see, now Lyric That's none of our business. That's what I'm saying. Like, Scott was very public, but then we have to like stop it there. Um, so, you know, her little friend jumped in and was like, yeah, she's a doctor, she's a this, that, and the other thing. And then she's like, you know that Scott and Shelley died from that jab, and I hope you took the same batch they took because bad things happen in threes. So she's telling me she's upset about Scott and Shelley, but she hopes that I had the same batch vaccine because bad things happen in threes, and that I should change the bio on my Twitter page that says I, um, I'm the executive producer and lead host of the Scott Adams School because I'm, I'm posing as somebody that worked for someone— no, I'm saying that I still work for someone who died. And I'm like Wow. And this chick has so many followers, and so does this doctor. And I was like, these are two of the most disgusting people I've ever witnessed on here. The doctor at least just blocked me without even like looking into like who I might be. And the other chick was like— the— then the doctor said to the other chick like, don't give her any engagement, blah blah blah. And so then the chick, her name's Erin, the chick, other chick. She's like, yeah, like she's a total kiss-ass for this doctor. She's like, yeah, um, she's like, I don't know, she had like some little thing like about blocking me. And then I'm like, oh, but you didn't block me. So I'm like looking, I'm like, wait, I thought you were blocking me. So I just went ahead and blocked her for her. She obviously forgot to block me at this doctor's orders. But I was just like, how are you going to say that like you cared about Scott and who he was and you're going to speculate about the death of the most important person in his life and him and put it out there as if you have inside information, because that's how they were putting it out there. And then when somebody says to you like, hey, why don't you guys just stop speculating and knock it off? Then you're, you know, they're like, oh, they're attacking me. And I'm like, okay, so even if I used to work for Scott Adams, because she's like, oh, I know this this lady, she used to work for Scott, um, blah blah blah. And I'm like, okay, so you've already just laid out the fact that I actually know Scott and you actually don't, so you're gonna attack me just so you can speculate? You know what I'm saying? So it's so stupid in the world out there. And, um, love you, Andy. And, um, you know, like when Scott said everything that people say about celebrities or whatever is is wrong. He is so right because I've been witnessing it firsthand ever since, you know, we lost Scott Adams. And everybody's freaking wrong about everything, but they're so confident about it. And then, um, I was like really bummed too because then Viva Frye comes out and he's like— his first sentence is, I have no insider information and no knowledge about this, but it sounds like, you know, a suicide. And I'm like, Why? You know, so that's why I came back on the next day to clear that up, because I wouldn't want anyone to think anything like that. But I'm like, viva, what the hell? Thanks, Kev. I'm like, you know why? You, like you just said, I have no insider knowledge, no nothing, but I'm just gonna throw this out there. I'm gonna say one of the worst things you could hear, you know? So I'm just like, good Lord. I know he means well, but that, like, but he should know better because he's been victim of this stuff. For years on here. So I am trying to do better now. I'm doing better now when I see stories like this and I know what bullshit everything is, to not chime in and make it worse. Yeah, it is shocking from Viva, but, um, no, he hasn't apologized. I don't even know if he saw my
