BREAKING: Beloved Conservative Commentator Passes Away

Scott Adams, the outspoken cartoonist behind the long-running comic strip Dilbert, has died at 68.

Adams died after a battle with prostate cancer that had spread to his bones. He had been receiving end-of-life care at his home, according to TMZ.

His death was announced by his ex-wife, Shelly, during a livestream of his podcast, Real Coffee with Scott Adams.

Adams rose to fame as the creator of Dilbert, a workplace satire that debuted in April 1989 and became a global hit. At its peak, the strip ran in more than 2,000 newspapers across 65 countries.

The comic was later canceled during an early wave of cancel culture.

In May 2025, Adams revealed he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He shared a grim update on Real Coffee with Scott Adams on Jan. 1.

🚨 JUST IN: Scott Adams has passed away. He left a final message. Rest in peace.

“I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and look forward to spending an eternity with him.”

Pray for Scott and the family. 🙏🏻

“I’ll give you any updates if that changes, but it won’t,” Adams said.

“So there’s no chance that I’ll get my feeling back in my legs, and I’ve got some ongoing heart failure, which is making it difficult to breathe sometimes during the day.

“However, you should prepare yourself that January will probably be a month of transition, one way or another.”

Adams’ iconic “Dilbert” character

President Donald Trump offered to help Adams with his cancer treatment after the cartoonist sought assistance getting radiotherapy scheduled through Kaiser Permanente using the drug Pluvicto.

Adams said the treatment would give him a “fighting chance” to survive a little longer. Trump responded to the plea by saying he would help.

More than 300,000 new cases of prostate cancer are diagnosed each year, according to the American Cancer Society. Symptoms can include frequent urination, an urgent need to use the bathroom, weak urine flow, blood in urine or semen, and difficulty or a prolonged time urinating.
