The Scott Adams School - 07/31/26 FRIDAY The Home Team

The episode opens with the regular hosts Erica, Marcella, and Owen Gregorian performing the show’s "simultaneous sip" ritual before diving into a rapid‑fire mix of news, commentary, and clips. Highlights include a playful monkey video, a broadcast of John Kelly’s mayoral campaign ad for Chicago, and a heated discussion about the Democratic Socialists of America’s stance on prison abolition sparked by a street interview with a rape survivor. The hosts then shift to the migrant surge at Spain’s Ceuta enclave, framing it as a warning of what open‑border policies could look like in the United States. They examine a proposed Gaza‑Hamas disarmament framework, critique Dr. Fauci’s role in the COVID‑19 pandemic using Tulsi Gabbard’s accusations, and express deep skepticism toward vaccines, pharmaceutical supply chains, and mainstream media. Interspersed are Scott Adams’ “persuasion” mini‑lecture on repetition, contrast, and novelty as tools for influencing thought. The show wraps up with a light‑hearted cat rescue story, a closing sip, and reminders about upcoming subscriber‑only after‑party streams.
Chapters
Because Sean, every time— good morning, you guys! Is it Friday?
Is it?
Is it my brother's birthday?
Oh, happy birthday, Marcela's brother over at Waymo!
Oh, this is the other one, the one not at Waymo.
Don't tell us where he is.
He's the one— this brother is the one that got me into Anne Wren, Rush Limbaugh, and Scott Adams. So, ah, it's good taste.
Um, SJV, you know King Randall's next Friday, right? I hope everyone understood that. Oh my gosh, Marianne, don't even say that. This is, this is family. We're all good here. That's what it's about, discussions. And you know, please, you guys are all—
Marianne, you're gonna get detention.
We had a whole meeting about you with HR yesterday, Marianne. Naughty, naughty. I hope, um, some of you— I'm just giving a second because Owen might be running in right now, and we'll do a sip in one second, you guys. But I hope some of you on Locals got to see our after-school special. It was me with Dr. Drew and BJ Dichter, and we did, um, about a 40-minute interview talking about all sorts of different things. But anyway, check that out over at scottadams.locals.com. And that was fun. You knew it, Marianne. Okay, so listen, it's time. Listen, it's time for the sip. And can someone tell me, have we seen Bob Lawler? Because I just need permission from him to play his song he made for us one more time because I'm so addicted to it. Okay, so let's get to the sip.
Let us get to the important part of the morning, the part that makes everything better. Yeah, it's called the simultaneous sip, and all you need is 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 beverage. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. Oh yeah. Yeah. So good.
So good and steamy. Sippity doo dah. The unparalleled pleasure. Okay, you guys, look what I did. I brought in Owen. Here he is. I feel like I did that. Like I birthed you, Owen. Welcome to Friday, Owen. Welcome, everybody. My name is Erica. I am here with my favorite, most amazing co-hosts, Marcella and Owen. And I found out today that there's 31 days in July. Ta-da! I think most of you knew that. So closing another great week. You're at the Scott Adams School. I conjured him at the Scott Adams School. I mentioned before, I'll just say it really quick again for those that just came in. We had a great, uh, after-school special with Dr. Drew and BJ Dichter yesterday on scottadams.locals.com. That's over there for you guys to see. And, uh, today we just have a plethora of, uh, news and information. And then tomorrow you get all your Owen time at the after party on X at owengregorian.com. Owen, I am right that you're on tomorrow, right?
Yes, you—
yes.
I'll be there.
Perfect. Perfect, perfect, perfect. And all right, so you guys, just indulge me one more time because you guys, I have one little Punch Monkey clip I have to play because little Punchy, my favorite macaque over there in Japan, He is going to be the big macaque in this video. He's not the little tiny ones, but he's become like a big brother to the new babies that they've put in there. Wait till you see. Look at this.
Wow.
Music is loud today. But he's the big one, you guys. And those are little babies in there. And he's giving them like all the love and attention that he always wanted. Look, he's like helping the little one off the swing, like, careful, careful. How sweet is he? They love him, they follow him everywhere. That's it. I'm like, what are you guys doing? Careful, little one. I mean, are those his kids? No, but they're like new babies in his sanctuary where he is, and they love their big brother Punchy. He protects them from other ones. I just love this little macaque. Look how he looks at them. Oh, I want him. Thanks for indulging me, you guys. Listen, I can't help it.
Aww, he's like, you're not gonna be an orphan like me.
Yes, look how he pets him.
He talks too.
I know.
I saw an article today that monkeys sometimes have pets.
Well, he had his pet stuffed animal. Stephen said Punch is a groomer. I know what you mean, and I know what you mean. That was funny. Um, so that was—
he's not, he's not, he's not, but he is grooming them.
They groom each other. Yes. So, okay, you guys, uh, thanks. I'm gonna just cross that off my list. I had to get that out of my system. Uh, Andy's laughing, you know it was funny. Okay, so Owen, guess what?
Um, what?
What?
I thought you were actually gonna guess something. It's like, oh. So you guys, you all know Julie Kelly, right? She's an attorney. She's amazing. She's like been fighting hard for the J6 people. Her husband, John Kelly, is running for mayor of Chicago. And I was like, wow, that's pretty amazing because they're great people. And I just want to play— she doesn't know I'm doing this, but I want to play his ad announcing that. So let's go, Chi-Town. You might just end up with an amazing mayor if you pull your shit together. Here he is.
Chicago used to be known as the city that works. Not anymore. It's early evening. I'm on the L and it's almost empty because Chicagoans are afraid to ride the train at night. That's not a city that works. I'm John Kelly and I'm running for Mayor of Chicago because keeping people safe should be the mayor's number one priority. We used to have about 400 police officers riding the trains. On my first day as mayor, I'm gonna start putting them back. There are 154 police officers on Mayor Johnson's security team. I'm gonna cut that by 75% and put 100 more police officers on the trains immediately. I'll hire more police, and after my first year in office, we're gonna have 1,000 more police officers on the streets. The city budget is now $17 billion. We can afford to hire enough police officers to keep the trains safe. I'm also gonna bring back ShotSpot.
Manner.
It works, and the mayor only got rid of it to hide the amount of crime we have. And to stop the teen takeovers, we need to allow the police to call the SNAP curfew before they start. I'm a Democrat. Crime isn't a left versus right issue. It's driving businesses and jobs out of our city, driving up residential property taxes, and hurting Chicago's most vulnerable. I'm not another career politician. They're the ones that got us into this mess. I'm the problem solver who's gonna get us out of it. There are so many issues to tackle. I want to hear what's most important to you, from you, right in your living room. If you want me there, go to my website and hit the living room button, and I will be there. I still believe Chicago can be the city that works for everyone.
Uh, so much to everybody's surprise, he's a Democrat, you guys. I saw everybody saying, I can't see anyone voting, you know, red in Chicago. He's a Democrat. So there's that. And by the way, I haven't seen a Black mayor take care of racism. So I know some of you think it needs to be a Black person. How's that going? Um, yeah. So what do you think, Al?
Uh, I would love to see it. And he's very smart to run as a Democrat regardless of where he really falls on the political spectrum. I don't think any Republican's gonna get anything in Chicago, but I, you know, I suppose it really just moves the real race to the primary that, you know, it's gonna be him against whether it's Brandon Johnson or whoever. And, you know, we'll have to see how the machine handles it. It's, it's pretty bad in Chicago.
Yeah, I know. So, Metal Seer, I'm so excited to see you here on Locals. Thank you so much. Metal Seer is a YouTuber. We love our YouTubers. I'm so happy you're here. Welcome, you're gonna love it. Um, and good morning to YouTube, Rumble, X, and Spotify, you guys. Sorry, um, I had a weird start today. So, alien baby. Uh, the comments. Okay, you guys, so, um, Marcella, what do you think? I mean, I love Julie Kelly. I'm sure her husband is as smart as a whip. Chicago needs to shake the box. Um, you know, I'd hate to see it go any further Uh, what do you think?
Well, he's brave. That's all I can say because, uh, he even showed like, uh, like all these politicians or like everything, um, it's all mafia, corruption, all sorts of things. If he's running, he knows what he's gonna go against, and I wish him good luck because it's not just Like, it's not just running. It's kind of like when you run in LA, it's like there's an apparatus. There's a whole network of people that live off the government. And then there's the corruption within. There's so much corruption. It's hardly—
who's getting paid off?
Yeah.
So I'm— Julie and John Kelly, they're both very brave.
The three of us here really live in some of the most corrupt places. It's crazy.
I mean, to me, it's just a matter of like, when does it get bad enough? That people will actually get motivated to show up to the polls in strong enough numbers that the rigging or whatever else is going on can't make the difference. And I'm hoping it comes soon, but I haven't seen it yet in any of these cities. It seems like if anything, it's moving the other direction with Mamdani and all that, and Bas and Rahman or whatever. And, um, so it doesn't seem like it's moving in the right direction in these cities. But you know, at some point I have to imagine there's a breaking point where people are gonna say enough is enough.
Yeah, so you know what, I'm going to switch up the way I was going to do stories today because we might as well flow right into the Democrat Socialists of America, the DSA. They really are picking up steam. I mean, they still are a minority, but the Democrats in office are so terrified of these noisemakers that want communism for our country. So it's Just amazing to see how afraid they are of people in their party. So I'm going to switch order and let me just move this here. So American Debunk reposted this, and this is Nick Shirley, and he is out on the street talking to Democrat Socialists of America. But this is just a college student. Imagine your daughter you're sending to college and, oh Lord have mercy, here's what she says.
Let's just say somebody who has raped a woman.
Totally.
Would you like them to be out in the street?
I think my answer is yes, even though that's a challenging answer to say.
So if you got raped, would you like your rapist to be out in the street?
Well, like, let me finish, because I have been raped and they are out in the street, and I'm not sure, like, them going to jail is a solution to, like, whatever's going on inside their heart or even my own heart that, like, contributed to that experience that I'm having. And I don't want more people to get raped, but I don't know for certain that going into a jail in the United States is going to shift anything inside of their, like, operating system so that they'll make a different choice again.
Wow.
Well, thank you guys so much for your time. And is there one last message you'd like to give the people about potential the rise of communism or freeing the people inside the prisons?
Just like free yourself from the own prison in your heart, and then maybe we can—
Oh, we're back.
Oh my.
Okay, so Marcella, help Marcella! This is the DSI.
I could only say that she has mental problems. I'm not a psychologist or anything like that, but there's issues there. I mean, I, I'm sorry that she was um, abused, sexually abused. But, um, I mean, okay, so I'm gonna just let people out on the street because I don't consider what the prisons do to be like somehow rehabilitation? That doesn't make any sense at all.
I don't know, it's not— I don't— I think she's completely neglecting or forgetting or doesn't know the impact of just taking that person off the street for however many years. Like, it's not just about rehabilitating the person. Uh, you know, if we, if we were purely looking at that, maybe there'd be like psychiatric treatments or castration or whatever. I mean, like, you know, but I think a big part of it is the people who are causing all this crime need to be taken off the streets one way or another, because they're not going to change. That's the point. If they were going to change, then we'd do something to make them change, I guess. But there, you know, without doing something drastic that I think none of us are willing to do to those people. Then the only option is to say we need to segregate them from the rest of society. And, you know, maybe some of them will get rehabilitated or learn their lesson, and maybe some of them won't. But I don't think that's really the point. I think the point is, if you leave them out on the street, they're going to do it again, and a lot of them are going to do it again. And when you see the statistics, it's like a very small percentage of the population does a really large percentage of the crime. And I know Trump has made that point, and we just had some statistics that homicides are way down, like, way down. And I don't know if I believe those numbers. I'm sure Scott would be all over saying all data is fake. But to whatever extent our crime rates are down, it's probably because of all these crackdowns and getting rid of the criminal illegal aliens and taking law enforcement seriously and locking people up.
I know. Well, then Nick Shirley goes on to the Ingram angle, uh, and she, you know, questions him about this. So here's his follow-up.
I heard react Nick Shirley, independent journalist, and Ned Ryan, American Majority CEO. Nick, um, so college students you talk to saying rapists should remain on the streets— I mean, this is, this is akin to, uh, you know, they say the Trump followers are cultists. Like, this is like a socialist cult that is spread or cultivated online and continuing to be reinforced in, I guess, social media algorithms and, and spit out in this absolutely unintelligible patter that you experienced on the street. Was this as shocking to you as it was to all of us watching this?
Yeah, I remember I walked away and I just couldn't actually believe what she just said. But then I looked up and said, then looked up what the DSA actually believes in, and they literally want to abolish prisons and make it so people aren't incarcerated for their crimes. And so you actually do have a group of people who do not think criminals should be put in prisons.
Whoops. Okay, so go ahead, Marcella. It's amazing. I know you—
guess what party wants to like Decriminalize criminalization of criminals. The Criminal Party, of course. It's like, let me, let me get all these, all these corrupt people to dictate new government laws, and let's outlaw any kind of criminalization of crime. Like, that's just like, oh my God.
I know, it hurts, doesn't it?
But it's not crazy, you see.
It's—
they want us To think that it's all crazy, like the, the main thinkers, the people that create the party, the DSA, and all of these things, there is some sanity in it because it's like they don't want to go to prison because they know that they'll end up there for all their corruption.
Oh yeah, I see BJ in the chat. He's right. I mean, this is what we keep talking about. Indoctrination camps are our colleges and universities. We're Look at the professors, look at the things they're teaching, look at the courses you can take are even insane. So again, I'm going to say it, you know, follow Mike Rowe Works. That's Mike Rowe's handle on X. And he has a podcast also. And just get in the trades, get your kids in the trades unless you want them to come out like, oh, our piss should be free and walking around. It's okay. Owen, I mean, you have two young men, uh, sons, and it's a scary world out there.
Yeah.
I mean, it, well, I, you know, I think I've hopefully put my sons on the right path. I think they're heading in the right direction, so I'm not too worried about my own boys, but, um, it is scary. And I, I think, um, you know, it, it's just, it's interesting to me how like criminals or defending crime is somehow associated with communism. Like, like, those things in my mind shouldn't necessarily go together in any way, but they clearly do, uh, and I don't really get it. Like, it, it really seems like it's more just about tearing down the system, like tearing down all the institutions, tearing down all the stability, and maybe just a path to this supposed utopia that we all know will never happen. Um, but it just, it grates on my logical mind because it's like, okay, you're basically saying we should abolish prisons, abolish, you know, Senate, abolish probably the Supreme Court, abolish everything, like just, you know, total anarchy. And yet your vision is that everyone's just going to be kumbaya, helping each other, everyone's going to do everything, you you know, voluntarily and get along with each other somehow. Like, it just doesn't make any sense, right?
Like, I think it's more like—
I think it's more like Mao's communism, um, where you have a whole entire people of like, we have to have this Cultural Revolution, and whoever doesn't believe in our Cultural Revolution will not go to prison, they will go to re-education camps. So they do, and the gulags, and however you want to call them, So they might not call them prisons, but we would be going there. We would be bunkmates, uh, me and Erica, you know.
So they're just gonna— they're just gonna rename everything. I mean, it just— to me, it seems like every communist regime we know about has had stricter law enforcement, because you really have to. The only way you can have fascism or socialism or communism is to have really strict law enforcement. You need to— you need to force people to do what you're telling them to do. That's the whole idea behind it. I mean, they, I don't think they think about it that way, but in reality, the only way you can take away individual rights, which is what it's all about, to go to this collectivist thing, is to say, I'm gonna take away your individual rights. Like, you have to do what we tell you to do. And so the only way to do that is with violence and locking people up in reeducation camps or whatever. And so inexorably, every single time they've tried this, that's the way it goes, is you, you have some centralized power. That is saying, okay, we're going to force everyone to behave the way we want them to, and we're going to punish them or kill them or do whatever we need to to the people who don't comply.
That's it.
Don't call it violence, Owen. We call it new way of thinking. You know how it is. I, I know the 1984 freedom. War is peace, peace is war, whatever it is.
Up is down, down is up. Everything is backwards.
Plus 2 equals 5, you guys.
Well, math is, you know, math is not mathy. Yeah, it's not. It doesn't math anymore, which I wish that was the case when I was in math. I used to hide under the table. I did. I used to hide under the table during math class. Math freaks me out. Um, that's a little personal.
Well, we'll outlaw it for you, Eric.
Yes. I wish we could somehow persuade or make clear to the communists that they are for authoritarianism, because that's really true.
That is true. But I mean, look at— I just want them to go look at the little autonomous zones these people set up, you know, against ICE or Antifa, whatever they're doing.
Like this Corey Ruiz one in Wisconsin now, they're calling it CRAZ. I think they should have it the Corey Ruiz Autonomous Zone for Youth. I think that would be a better acronym.
Yes, I like that. And I think that these people should go live in one of these autonomous zones and see if they like it, because that's exactly what they're wanting. And they want to get rid of the Pentagon too. Everything is just like, ah, no military.
Okay.
But, you know, so we're watching right now what happens when you just take all the laws away and there's no borders and anybody can come over. Sure, no problem. So we're seeing this Moroccan invasion of military-age men. I have not— I haven't personally seen one woman or one child in these groups. And they're going to like an African region. It's like a North African region of Spain. I don't know if I have that exactly right, but let's, let's show you what's happening. So here's just a quick clip, you guys, if you haven't seen this. How horrifying is this? These are people flooding into this region, um, just coming right over the border. So that's happening.
I thought that was footage from World War Z too.
Yeah, it is. I mean, so imagine this now. Wait, I have another clip. I think Juanita Broderick posted this this morning. I pulled it off of her timeline. But here's a little discussion.
Today. Some estimates indicate that the official figure is far too low. There could be perhaps 80,000 to 100,000 migrants who've crossed into, into Spanish territory. And this is a vision of America's future if the socialists, the communists take power in the United States in 2029, because this is exactly what they're going to do— offer an amnesty, have an open border. And you'll see the invasion of the United States. So what is happening in Europe right now is a vision of America's future if the crazy communist socialists, the far left, seize power in the United States. So this is a nightmare scenario, actually, not only for Europe but also for America as well. If we see these scenes unfolding a few years from now.
So, you know, the thing is, this isn't random. This is Spanish Supreme Court ruled that they limited the immediate— limited the immediate return of migrants intercepted after reaching Ceuta by sea. And then they had a 2025 program that told undocumented migrants who did not commit crimes, basically, you can stay. So if you're in Morocco living in squalor, you go, this is my chance. I'm going. I'm out of here. The White House says this. President Trump has long warned that Europe— war Europe. That would happen if they continue to implement far-left globalist policy.
Okay, so the, uh, what is he, the president of Spain? Sorry, I just, I, I always am like, who's a what, where? But he, he's like, well, he didn't call a national emergency. Um, actually, let me just— my dentist is calling me. Okay, let me just play this.
Has quote totally collapsed. So take a look. Thousands of migrants stormed the Spanish territory of Ceuta This is on the North African coast after coming by sea from Morocco. It's about a 3-mile swim. And take another look, Trace. Spain's Interior Ministry says the government actually could not declare a national emergency because under Spanish law, migration flows are not considered a national security risk. The head of Ceuta's regional government said today's surge came after more than 1,500 migrants arrived over the past week. Migrant reception centers were already overwhelmed before today. Suda authorities previously blamed the surge on a Spanish Supreme Court decision that guarantees due process for illegal migrants arriving by sea. The White House has already reacted to this today, writing, quote, President Trump has long warned Europe what would happen if they continued to implement far-left globalist policies, including enabling mass migration. Spain and other countries who have adopted this destructive philosophy should immediately reverse course. Or risk their own demise. Spain's socialist government is exceptionally welcoming to migrants and recently launched a program to provide legal status for half a million illegal migrants. Here's Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer reacting to it.
If this doesn't wake up the people in this country, when they see what an open border is going to cause, uh, they need to tune in and start watching.
This is frightening. It's very sobering, but it's also really sad. A lot of people think, oh, we need to open our borders and open our country and offer opportunity to all those who, who need it. What I mean, what are these people all going to be doing there? I mean, I know they're going to become lawyers and doctors and architects and engineers, but until they get those degrees, uh, what's happening? And by the way, I, I couldn't even show it to you guys. It's like this is upsetting enough, but there's so much footage. They're going to people's homes and just breaking in the homes now. So now they're— they've all been ushered into the, the cities and the towns. They're literally just at random picking homes and breaking into the people's homes. They're looting the stores, um, just stealing everything and running around. So, um, who wants to take a stab at this first? I hear you, Ellen.
How many women did you see in those videos?
Only the ones that were on the beach that day watching them all run by.
They're all military-age males, all, you know, and I don't think they're going to have jobs for all those people. And I mean, my mind just goes to Scott Adams' Systems vs. Goals. This is clearly a broken system that was designed poorly. And I don't necessarily think they knew this is the way it was going to go.
Maybe they did.
I don't know.
But it clearly is designed for this type of result. You know, you have the EU itself that says if you're in the EU, you're allowed to go everywhere, and you know, you have all the rights of an EU citizen type of thing. And then you have Spain that for whatever reason decided, we're just going to give asylum to all these people and just let them all stay. And I'm sure there were some far leftists behind all that, and they probably were having this goals mindset where they're like, well, we just want to be, you know, charitable to these people. It's kind of like that woman earlier that was wanting rapists out on the street. It's like, oh, I just want to be a good person, and I want to be good to these people, not thinking about the consequences of what that means, especially on a large scale like this, where it's like, okay, if Spain is the only country that says we're going to give asylum to everybody, then this is what you're going to see. You're going to see a massive influx of people going to Spain, and they're going to exploit the system to say, okay, I've got my free pass now, and you got to pay me welfare, and you got to pay, you know, give me a place to live and give me food and give me medical care and all the other things. And it's going to mostly be the young males that go because they have the energy and the ability to get through this boat trip and all this other stuff. And you're going to have a huge crime problem.
Mm-hmm. Well, and like Morgan just said, now they're like squatting in people's homes. Like, imagine you're just home and this— like, what are you going to do? Like 10 military-aged, uh, criminals are at your door and they're like, this is our house now, like, and nobody's stopping them. So what are you supposed to do?
It's, it's just like it's suicidal empathy on a national scale.
Yeah, it is.
And I'd like to say we're better than that, but we just had our Supreme Court say that birthright citizenship is fine.
Right.
So we're doing the same thing where we're setting up a system in a way that is easily exploited by our enemies. To say, okay, we can just, you know, keep making American citizens all, all over the place on a large scale. And eventually they'll have political control of the country potentially because they'll have hundreds of thousands or millions of people that can, they can deploy to swing states and say, okay, I'm gonna do my absentee ballot, my mail-in ballot, even from China or wherever they are, and just cast my votes to put the people in power that I want, that'll do things that I want. And they can essentially take over the country and we're not doing anything to stop it.
Now, Marcela, I don't mean to put you on the hot seat, but, you know, sometimes I get an idea in my head and I throw it to you and you're like, oh, God, Erica, help me. But would it be wrong or is it wrong of me? Or why can't we have a country where we just start peppering people off with bullets when they try to come over the border? Is that bad?
Well, you have a war with the other country. If that happens.
But they're invading.
Yes, you can defend yourself as a country, but you would have a war against Mexico or Canada, wherever.
China, Zimbabwe, they're coming.
No, it would be to the country next to you because I imagine that's what they would think of it. So that's why they don't do it. But Poland has done that before, sort of like that. Um, now this whole thing is organized It has been organized before. This is not the first time this happens. In 2021, this happened before. The King of Morocco has issues with the Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and their government. And so anytime he thinks, okay, I want my, you know, I want, uh, Ceuta back or Melilla, those areas Spanish areas, like, or he wants something, like he's trying to do leverage. So he sends all these people, um, you know, they're willing to go and he sends them, or he says let them, let them through. So this is typical of having, um, one, Spanish government Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez that doesn't do anything, and, and two, having the Moroccan king and their parliament not wanting to work with Spain. So they had this happen in 2021, and even before that they had that. Now it's 50,000, um, in an area where there's only 80,000 people. Um, and then this morning the prime minister came out and said that he thinks it's the mafia. That is behind it. I mean, I guess with the mafia, you can't really say I have to have, you know, kind of a war with the country. So the other issue is that it's a whole European Union thing because there's something called the Schengen area. And so now that they're in Spanish territory, now that they can get, you know, help or whatever it is, now they can go into any other European country. European Union country.
Oh wow.
And you can't really— um, Giorgia Meloni, Italy's prime minister, I believe she is, um, she came out saying that she's gonna pause Schengen area from Spain, but you can't really do that. That's a European Union thing. So she's gonna try something. Finland said that she was gonna— the interior minister of Finland said they were going to do the same. It's a whole situation, but you get what you vote for.
And you know what? I bet so many people are so mad that they formed the European Union. You should have kept your own countries, your own borders. I mean, like, what are you doing?
Brexit?
Yeah, like, keep your own country, your own sovereignty, save your people. Um, and also, I believe that these, uh, Morocco emptied out their prisons, and a lot of these people were in jail I saw one guy was being interviewed and he was let out of jail for murder and said, go on, get out of here. So they're, they're just emptying their prisons into this other region now. So it's pretty scary stuff. SJV had a good idea. He said, why don't we take all of our illegal immigrants and bring them over there since they're so welcoming to having this happen? And I'm going to stand by my idea. Of shooting everybody. And I think that was—
I think Trump had that idea that JB had. He was gonna— because there's some, there's some illegal immigrants that they wanted to deport that the countries didn't want them back, and so they wanted to drop them off anywhere else. And then there was a judge that said that's not allowed.
So, oh, a judge. Oh, these judges. Yeah.
Okay. And, and President Trump came out today saying, you know, this is what we're gonna get if our elections, if the Democrats win next time.
With the filibuster. Yeah. All right, so you guys will follow this story. I'm so excited. So many people are with me on peckering off people. Just boo-boo. As soon as your foot hits America, you're done. I probably wouldn't have felt this way maybe like 15 years ago, 10 years ago, 8 years ago. But I feel this way now. I can't lie. I want to protect our country. So anyway, I wanted to just shift over because this could be potentially good news. Of course, we live with skepticism on everything we hear. But when I hear that we might have— I saw Jared Kushner post also a peace deal for Gaza. I didn't get too into it, but if I'll post the image of what was written, but if you can just summarize it for us, that would be great.
Well, I think the agreement is essentially for disarmament of Hamas. So that's the tweet version or the very short version. I think it's essentially saying they have the peace board or the board of peace that they had formed. Is agreeing to carry out this structured phase of disarmament. Um, looks like Israeli forces are going to withdraw, and, you know, that they have this Palestinian police force that's supposed to take responsibility for security down there. So there's a bunch of things that are probably somewhat of a negotiation or a compromise. Um, it looks like Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey were part of this negotiation, so there's some local involvement in terms making these decisions. But the headline is that they agreed to disarm Hamas, and Hamas has never agreed to be disarmed. So, um, you know, that was— I think when they ended Phase 1, I think they were kind of saying, okay, we've got this, you know, all peaceful. But I don't think there was ever any agreement from Hamas to accept those terms, including disarmament. So now I think they're probably going to essentially force them to be disarmed. So I'm not sure if this really is a peace deal as much as it is the next step. Like, because Hamas probably still will not necessarily want to cooperate with this, so there may be some more fighting that you'll see in the short term as a result of trying to disarm Hamas. But that's the Board of Peace's decision that they're going to move in that direction. Um, hopefully it would lead to more peace in the long term, but I think, uh, essentially they're probably just going to go after Hamas and, and take away their arms. So that's the way I would expect it to go.
So there's no agreement per se. It's like a one-sided, hey, here's what we're doing. Marcela, did you look into this at all? I, you know, they've agreed.
Hamas leaders have agreed. Who doesn't agree is Israel. Israel is very, very skeptical of this. But allegedly the Hamas leaders, this was 8 months in the making. With mediators from Egypt, Qatar, Turkey. Your, your, uh, your people officials estimate about 200 and 350 days of decommission of weapons it will take. They also, they have also agreed to disclose and destroy its tunnel network, but it's all iffy. There's, there's this, this idea of a force that is going to be stability force stabilization force. They call it International Stabilization Force, is going to work there to police it. And that's going to be made up of, like, Albania, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, and Morocco. Morocco, um, and Egypt and Jordan have agreed to have some of their soldiers go there and be part of this International Stabilization Force. America allegedly is not going to use any of their soldiers, of our soldiers there.
But, hmm, yeah, I'm just kind of skeptical. I mean, and when I said they didn't agree, I was mostly referring to the phase one part, like before this. But I think it— I still am skeptical, just like with what's going on in Iran, where like supposedly they had a deal, but then the Houthis were doing their own thing, and, you know, Lebanon was doing their own thing. And like, I would imagine that, um, you may see elements of Hamas that might say, I'm not doing that, and not giving up their arms or trying to hide them or whatever. And I think that's something I would expect as part of this. So I would be skeptical that it's just going to all go smoothly and this is the end of it, but we'll have to see how it goes.
Let me see here. I just wanted to— Beverly and Barry, I'm just trying to find out what you guys are talking about. The bill is dead now, but it has a chance if we don't lose Congress, I think. Are you talking about the SAVE Act? I'm just trying to listen to 3 things at one time. I'm like, wait, what? What's dead now? Okay, so I mean, we'll keep our eye on that. Usually these things, if they fall apart, it happens pretty fast. So we should know next week how this is going. I don't believe any of it. I don't know. We'll see. This is why I don't like getting into wars with other people and conflicts with other people. Like, can we just everybody focus on themselves? I know I'm pissing people off when I say that, but I don't care. Okay, so I just want to touch on one more thing about Fauci because the other day I wanted to play Tulsi Gabbard's response to Fauci taking the Fifth 111 times in front of Congress, in front of the committee. And after that, Marcella and Owen were going to do like a little rapid-fire don't be suckers and losers. Of like what news we all need to know when we run out there. So this clip's about 5 minutes. And if you, if you came in late and you haven't had a sip yet, we're going to take a sip with you and we're going to watch this clip of Tulsi. Here we go.
Before the COVID pandemic, Dr. Fauci, as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, provided millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, work which is now widely viewed as the source of the unintentional lab leak that sparked the pandemic. Now, in support of President Trump's maximum transparency mandate, today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I'm releasing never-before-seen communications and documents that expose exactly how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the intelligence community to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus's lab leak origins, and his role in directing US funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives. Now, these documents expose Fauci's direct role in influencing and manipulating IC assessments on COVID-19 and how Fauci lied to Congress in 2024, when under oath he denied knowledge of or participation in discussions with intelligence officials about viral research. We also received testimony from multiple intelligence community whistleblowers who reported retaliation for challenging the intelligence community's manipulation of intelligence on the virus's origins, once again revealing a clear pattern of suppressing dissent silencing critics and burying the truth. Dr. Fauci's close relationships with the intelligence community enabled him to assume 3 key roles that shield him from scrutiny. First, Dr. Fauci funded dangerous gain-of-function coronavirus research linked to Big Pharma and their pursuit of universal vaccines worth trillions of dollars. Second, Dr. Fauci was The behind-the-scenes advisor who, alongside his handpicked so-called experts, pushed the intelligence community to endorse a natural animal origin to hide his dangerous gain-of-function research that he funded using taxpayer dollars. All of this in a deliberate attempt to cover up the truth and shift the blame and attention away from Fauci's own actions. Third, Dr. Fauci became the nation's pandemic pundit, and he publicly pushed lies, disinformation, and censorship using every platform available. Now, according to hundreds of reviewed emails, which are included in this release, the intelligence community almost always incorporated Fauci's recommendations. He promoted a fraudulent paper whose publication he helped prompt. As legitimate information for intelligence community consideration. Senior analysts praised Dr. Fauci not as a policymaker, but as what they called an unbiased guide to the real coronavirus experts, while deliberately ignoring experts who might dissent from Fauci's narratives. Now, Fauci didn't stop there. He blatantly lied to Congress under oath during his 2024 testimony to the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. Denying that he ever spoke to any intelligence agency about COVID Now, the correspondence I'm releasing today directly contradicts his sworn testimony. And we received statements from multiple whistleblowers revealing that the intelligence analysts who dared to challenge Dr. Fauci's COVID origin conclusions faced threats of retaliation, marginalization, and many suffered career setbacks. For example, a contractor was terminated just days after coming forward to ODNI as a whistleblower. Another example: those who advocated for the lab leak hypothesis or expressed dissenting views were reminded by their managers that leadership would determine which analysts would be promoted and which would not. The message was clear: go along or be punished. Senior leaders also sought to undermine whistleblowers by removing anonymity, which is required in the whistleblower process, as they made their complaints and also insisting that their managers or attorneys be present during ODNI meetings where these whistleblowers were coming forward with their testimony, obviously creating an atmosphere of intimidation. The COVID pandemic caused tremendous hardship and pain for millions of our fellow Americans and countless people around the world. Now, after years of lies and censorship and cover-ups, The American people deserve transparency, truth, and accountability. The tactics that were used to hide the truth are straight from the deep state playbook. Politicized, self-serving leaders like Dr. Fauci covered up their own wrongdoing and abuses of power, manipulated intelligence, lied to Congress, and undermined a duly elected president by restricting his access to the vital facts he needed to keep the country safe. It's time you know the truth.
She's so great. She is so great. The Democrats blew it by not putting her in. I mean, I don't know if we even have to comment on that unless you guys want to.
I mean, I agree with all of the things she said, and I think it's just horrible what happened. I think we all know that. I'm feeling a little PTSD. Like, I feel like we're being transported back 5 years into the COVID thing. I just, like, I thought we had kind of all moved on by that, from that, and it was kind of out of the news. And now it's like, I just, like, I see all these posts and all these stories that are— it's like, is it 2022 again? Like, what's going on? It's like all this stuff is resurfacing and coming back. Um, and I understand the purpose of it, and I understand, and I do want Fauci punished and everyone else that was part of this, Birx and others. But, um, I just— I have another side of me that's like, I don't want to go back there. It's just—
I know, it really sucked. I mean, like, it's just— I can't even imagine living through that again, although it would be very different this time because we're all wiser now. But Marcella, anything on that?
Nothing's gonna happen to him. He's going to get away with it. And then Dr. Birx, I think you brought her up, uh, earlier this week. She never got a pardon. Why, why not have her testify?
And Peter Daszak.
Yeah.
And you know what, bring in Scott Adams because he'll tell the truth of what happened with him, uh, and all those other good doctors. So, um, I know, you know, it's— that's what— so if you watch yesterday with Dr. Drew, You know, we were talking about, you know, how as a society, how we get like built up because— so he was saying, you know, careful to make, uh, Dr. Fauci a scapegoat. And I'm like, but he is the scapegoat, like it is him. And he's like, but you don't want to be the person that is like, you know, I'm not going to be satisfied till I see blood, which I understand what he's saying. But I was saying to him that as a society We've been watching all of these crazy injustices happen and crimes, and you get like, I need the pressure release valve to happen because if someone doesn't go to frickin jail and, you know, heads aren't rolling figuratively, people, we don't feel any satisfaction. We feel like, well, there's just, you know, two sets of rules. And why are these people being protected where, like, my neighbor does something stupid, they might go to jail. Um, so it's hard to say, like, you know, don't get like, oh, he's got— you know, we have to see blood from Dr. Fauci. This is all figurative, but we feel like that because nothing ever happens to these people, ever. So I don't, I don't know what's gonna do it, right?
But I, I cross the street, I get a ticket, but the homeless person next to me crosses, oh no, no, no ticket.
And they'll get a hotel and a meal and, uh, whatever. Yeah.
What I'd like to see is that— I mean, there may not be anything we can do about Fauci, or maybe there is. I know Florida is starting an investigation. We'll have to see where that goes. But I don't— I wouldn't say the focus should just be on him. I mean, even the— the correct work that Tulsi just covered, like, there was intelligence community involvement. Like, who are all those people and what did they do? And why aren't we hearing about how they influence things? We know Fauci met with the CIA several times. What were those discussions? Like, what— and I've seen, you know, some stories that talk about some of these things that it may have been kind of an intelligence op that really set this whole thing up, that they kind of came up with this whole framework of how to deal with pandemics within the intelligence community. And a lot of it was about disinformation and framing these things this way. And so, you know, I'd like to make sure all that stuff gets dismantled so that it's not used the next time. And I'd like to just put everything in place to prevent this sort of thing from happening again. I, I know a lot of people, at least people listening here, would not be as easily deceived. Not that all of us necessarily were deceived even, but you know, that we wouldn't be trusting this sort of thing or even as willing to comply the second time. But you know, this will eventually be forgotten. There'll be other people that didn't necessarily go through all that the same way. And there's the whole other side that would probably be even more willing to comply the next time. And so I'd like to make sure we're not going to have a repeat performance because there will be another pandemic like this. There will be. I mean, it happens every few years. It seems like now every 6, 8, 10 years. And so there'll be another coronavirus or something like it that they'll suddenly say, oh, we got to panic. We got to lock down. We got to do all these things and we need to make sure that doesn't happen.
Well, someone's cooking it up right now. They're working on it right now. So, um, I don't know, it's frustrating, you guys.
Happy Friday, you guys.
Yeah, happy Friday. But you know what, listen, it's, it's just, it's what's happening. And I know a lot of, like, Owen's got PTSD and doesn't want to talk about it, but I want to talk about it to the point that I want it to be clear. I want people to be clear on what happened to us as a country, as a world.
And I argue it's still happening. Well, a lot of cancer, a lot of things that are happening, people dying early, the same. And even if you didn't get the vaccine, it's in the blood bank, it's everywhere.
So, okay, 100%. Happy Friday, everybody. Marcel is taking it to the next level for us now.
I, I agree. I mean, I think a lot of it is still happening, and I think a lot of it is um, you know, it's still something we should be trying to fight, essentially. Um, and I, and I'm just hoping that, you know, again, more of it is exposed. But it's, again, like, a lot of this is sort of like, it's the way it's, it's exactly what it looks like, you know. Everything you thought was true is true. And it's great to hear that to some extent, but it's like, again, what are the real consequences? And how are we going to stop this from happening again? And how do we, what, how do we deal with the aftermath of what's still happening. Like you said, there's a lot of people that, you know, have either what they call long COVID or vaccine injuries. What are they doing about that? You know, are they still telling people that have vaccine injuries that it's all in your head and it's not a real thing? And, you know, is long COVID really the same sort of thing? And, you know, I count that again as something that Fauci and others are accountable for because I think they caused this virus to be created. So You know, what are we doing to treat these people? What are we doing to, you know, try and again prevent this sort of thing from happening again? I know we just had a ban on gain-of-function research officially, even though I'm sure it was paused before that. But, you know, I think it has to go a lot further than that. I feel like we need to just scrub every possible thing we can to make sure that we have protections in place, hopefully durable ones, not just executive orders, right, to say, you know, how do we stop stop the next round from going the same direction, right?
Um, so you guys, you know, just— we're so skeptical now of everything, which is unfortunate with our doc. No, it's fortunate. Always be skeptical. But, you know, our trust levels, it's hard. I mean, listen, I have— I have a— I can't even say amazing. I mean, I can— an amazing doctor that I was going to in New York and he was a specialist and like crazy credentials, blah, blah, blah. I text him when this was all going on and I said, hey, um, the vaccine, do you think I should take it? And he said yes. And I'm like, is he crazy? Like, how can he say yes to me? I can't even believe he said yes. I'm like, there's been no research on it, it's been out for 4 seconds. So I was like, well, all right, I, I can't even trust him anymore. And he's like, the top specialist, one of these Park Avenue doctors. Um, and then I asked like my regular doctor, I'm like, so are you, uh, are you recommending the vaccine? Like, you, you don't know much about it, what do you think? She's like, yes. And I'm like, oh my God. I'm like, I can just— everybody. And then I remember going to a doctor appointment and they were like, are you fully vaccinated? And I'm like, can you tell me what fully I said, I'm just asking, is it one vaccine or do you have to have two or did you have to have three? Did you need all four? Like, what is fully vaccinated? She's like, I don't know. And I'm like, exactly. I'm like, so don't worry about it. So, you know, it's just, I have little faith in these things. And I even said to Dr. Drew yesterday, because, you know, he was reminding us about China is our enemy and they, you know, they're doing things very methodically. And I said, yeah, but you know, my, thing that I think about all the time is how much of our drugs and medication come from China. Why am I trusting the drugs that are coming over? How do I know that we're not— oh, God, I don't mean to make— this is just me, you guys. All the signs.
Let's go for it.
Yeah. Like, it's just me saying, like, but how do we know that they're not, like, slowly poisoning us or slowly? They are, right? Well, allegedly, in your opinion.
You know, I believe it. I mean, there's a lot of— I mean, there's a lot of litigation. But they get immunity.
As your attorney, I'm just saying, allegedly, for you, Marcella.
I'm not saying that. It's the one thing that I'm like, oh no.
Hit the like button. Marcella's rebelling. I like it.
I'm rebelling, my young sis. But you know, it's like follow the money, right? Scott Adams would have always told us, like, you create the medicine, so you create the disease. Instead of curing anything, they're just creating more and more issues. Yeah.
Yep. All right, so that's the gist, you guys. You know, we'll, we'll, we'll follow these stories. I, I really, when like picking stories and clips, I'm always like, I don't want to freak everyone out because like the news itself is freaky enough. So I, believe it or not, try to make it less horrifying, um, but it's still horrifying. So I'm sorry about that. All right, you guys. So listen, we have 2 minutes. We're just going to wrap it up now. And I just want to— Owen, do you want to plug for tomorrow?
We'll have the after party. So if you want to talk about these stories or anything else in the news, you're welcome to join me on Spaces and be the same time as this show on Saturday. We'll have another one on Sunday as well and a subscriber Spaces after that for the people who subscribe to me. So I'm hoping to see a bunch of be there.
And I always like to remind everyone, like, I, you know, I don't have the patience of Owen. He has the patience of a freaking saint. So like, he'll stay on a story with you guys, you guys can chat it out, like long form, do whatever you want to do, and just have a great time over there. I love how much you guys love being on the after party. It's awesome. Um, Marcela, any closing statements, ma'am?
Oh, I just wanted to give good news. Yeah, you guys know how much I love cats and dogs. Uh, there's a cat named Luli, the Luli that was saved in Venezuela after the earthquake. After 23 days, she was found in the rubble and she was found alive. Oh, so after 23, 23 days, she was under— found under the rubble and she was fine. She looked a little bit like Stella.
Oh, little baby. Yeah, well, that's sweet.
That's good news.
That is really good news. Thank you for ending us on a high note. Um, Smar wrote, great muse. You know how a cat muse? Okay, that was cute. All right, you guys, so I will play an Akira song. I had one. There are a couple I haven't played yet, and I— it's hard to know which ones they were, but I will play one. But first, let's say thank you to Scott Adams and Shelley Adams for allowing this show to continue. Thank you to every single one of you who show up here and Metal Seer, I'm giving you a shout out today for coming over to Locals and being on YouTube. I love that. It was so fun to see you at both. Um, all right, you guys, so thank you to Scott and Shelley. Thank you to all of you. Let's be useful this weekend. Have a great time doing whatever you're doing. And as always, a closing sip to our most beloved and very missed Scott Adams. To Scott.
To Scott.
Okay, if anyone has to go, bye Owen. Okay, okay. So Marcel, if you have to go, it's totally fine too. What was the song I found?
It is called Happy Birthday to My Brother.
Happy birthday, brother Armando. I can't find it.
I don't think he's watching, but why am I waving?
You guys, what was it?
We get to sing a cappella if you don't.
Yeah.
All right, let's do repetition and simplicity. Have we done this? I don't know, but let's do it. Here we go.
You want to make sure that you always inject novelty. It's what triggers memory, because your brain will get bored of the sameness. So you need to trigger Memory and attention. Contrast is a way to get people to move from where they are to where you want them to be. You just say, well, it's much, much less expensive than this. So contrast is one of the most important buttons. Use contrast often. Hey, you don't want to be this bad. You could be over here. Repetition and simplicity are Our brains are just simple machines. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. The more you repeat, the more the wiring gets solidified. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. And if you keep things simple, the brain can process it and deal with it. And if you keep things simple, the brain can process it and deal deal with it. If it's complicated, your brain has a tendency just to flush it out. Can't deal with it, flush it out. The fake because is a form of pseudo-logic. Sometimes you need to get people moving with a fake reason that doesn't even actually pass logical, uh, scrutiny. Standards, but people don't need logical reasons. Just look at politics. People have incredibly different opinions, and many of them are smart. So if you've got smart people on opposite sides of basically every issue, you can see that they don't need real reason. We're not a species that operates unreal reasons. We just will take a fake reason, we'll take one we made up, we'll take a guess, we'll follow our friends. Once you understand that people don't need real reasons, you're free. Because if you're locked in a little world at a lower level of awareness where you say, well, I'm not going to convince somebody unless I have a real reason— sorry, that's not the reality any of us living. Real reasons are good if you have them, use them, but we don't need them. Real reasons are good if you have them, use them, but we don't need them. Real reasons are good if you have them, use them, but we don't need them. Once you know you don't need them and that reality can be authored, you're in better shape. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines— repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. The more you repeat, the more the wiring gets solidified. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines.
Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. The more you repeat, the more the wiring gets solidified. Repetition and simplicity. Our brains are just simple machines. I love Akira's voice too. Like, he's such a calming, sweet voice when he's singing.
I love it.
Ah, oh, Metal Seer, great you enjoyed your visit to Locals. Yes, very nice people. Scott Adams cultivated the nicest, smartest, best-looking, creative, and, um, funny, funny people, I must say. So thank you, you guys, for being here today. Have an amazing weekend. The home team will be back on Monday. Next week we have King Randall on Friday. Sorry for the mix-up, you guys. All right, let's say our goodbyes. Marcela, have an amazing weekend. I'm gonna miss you until I see you again. Take care, you guys. You have an awesome weekend, everybody. Thank you so much. Wait until you meet Mike Burt, Metal Seer. Yes, and, and we apologize in advance.
Locals is so fun because you can post pictures on the chat, you know, like you can share more, more of you with the other chatters.
Yeah, yep. And you get to know everybody's pets. It's very sweet. But YouTube, I have to say, you guys are a good time. I'll be reading all your comments. In a little bit. Um, I hope I'm going boating this weekend. Um, the weather has taken a turn for the better, so yes, that is the plan always. All right guys, have a great weekend, and maybe I'll pop on this weekend, okay? So maybe I'll see you over on Locals. Maybe I'll do it on my channel on Chill and Chat. All right guys, love you. Marcel, love you. See you guys soon.
Bye.
