Bill Whittle Network

Scott Ott looks away from the Doomscrolling and discovers a universe of astonishing inventions and fantastic breakthroughs and also there seems to be a nasty bug going around the Right Angle crew.

Internationally revered, six-figure painter Hunter Biden claims that he and his entire family are broke and are about to default on $17 million in debt that came from somewhere totally legit, we swear. Looks like he’d better get out those brushes.

The socialist mayor of New York has promised to open a series of city-run grocery stores where many items will be sold at 30% below current market value. What could possibly go wrong?

Trump Derangement Syndrome strikes again.

Those who know him best say he has ‘an encyclopedic mind,’ capable of grasping not only the deep nuances of any particular subject, but also has such a wide range of interests that is seems impossible to find a topic of discussion he is not deeply versed in. Bit of a contrast from the unsophisticated, ignorant, boorish dolt the Left paints him as, isn’t it?

It is, by far, the deadliest animal on the planet and has likely killed more people than all human wars combined — the mosquito. Now, after millions of years of evolution, the tide may be turning in a particularly satisfying way as human-made drones shoot down mosquitos one at a time.

Many Alzheimer’s patients report having moment of near perfect mental clarity shortly before passing away. Neuroscience is unsure why, or even how, but one theory is that consciousness may not reside INSIDE the brain at all.

So it’s back on again with Iran — for the third time, depending on how you count the various ceasefires, overtures, discussions and ultimatums. Can someone remind us why we are talking to these Mullah’s in the first place?

Do we really want to live in a country where the pandemic of entitlement is so severe that people are will to endure this kind of humiliation to ‘save’ two bucks and some change?

‘The Days of America Being Played are Over…” says an op-ed in the New York Times. Wait — what? Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says that the purpose of the Treasury Department is to grow and protect America’s economic might throughout the world. Manage your own decline, Euroweenies!

In the flurry of patriotic self-reflection on our nation’s 250th anniversary, one thing in particular caught Bill’s attention: The irreplaceable Glenn Beck’s passionate history of Thomas Jefferson’s first draft of the Declaration of Independence. Glenn’s story knocked Bill’s socks off so hard it thought it needed to be told as far and as widely as possible… and so here it is.

In an age where doomscrolling social media can go on for weeks and black pills are handed out like candy, Bill, Steve and Scott take a bold and optimistic look at how far we have come and how spectacular the future can be for those who have never given up on The Dream.

For the last few weeks now, many, many people who have never seen America before have arrived to attend the World Cup — and their reaction has been nothing less than a national love fest. Told by their government media that The USA was a violent, soulless, bland corporate wasteland, they have discovered our natural beauty, our incredible food, and best of all the American natural character of open friendliness, great generosity and fierce national pride. For Steve, Scott and Bill, seeing the hundreds of awe-struck reactions to this incredible country of ours has been a transformational experience, not to mention a pure and deep joy.

At first we thought it was just another fire here in Flameytown, but after burning for over a week the real horror has just begun. The massive inferno at a refrigerated warehouse in LA’s Boyle Heights is now extinguished… and all that remains is some sixty-five MILLION pounds of rotting meat, a small ocean of runoff water and temperatures climbing into the nineties. Already the surrounding area stinks of death and things are likely to get much, much worse

Of all of the incomprehensible inversions of justice and just plain common sense in America today, perhaps none are more infuriating than the squatter phenomenon. But fear not! Free enterprise has found a legal solution to disinfest your house when the law is on the side of the people who have stolen it.

For the first time in history, AI weapons are being deployed in the battlefields of Ukraine that are programmed to kill human beings without other human beings being part of that decision loop. This is not just another advance in weapons tech. This is a Rubicon to be crossed at our moral peril.

No, seriously. We’ve had major disagreements with Meta’s policies in the past, but this latest act of generosity on the part of Mark Zuckerberg is beyond reproach.

Why would someone possibly defend the use of a psychological tactic that causes such internal pain and discomfort? Because SHAME IS LOVE — that’s why.

As goeth the dinosaurs, so goeth the Mainstream Media. It’s poetic justice that the scythe that is about to swing at CNN is wielded by one of their own.

For much of our history, Chicago has called itself America’s Second City. But ever since the early 80’s LA has surpassed Chicago in population. And now, after decades of endless striving, LA appears to have become America’s Second City of Corruption as well.

For reason’s known only to Baal, the nominally normal Christopher Nolan has cast his upcoming blockbuster in a somewhat… baroque fashion. Accident or Activism? Just kidding. It’s Activism.

Introductions? LEGENDS DON’T NEED NO STINKING INTRODUCTIONS!!

Large Language Models such as ChatGPT definitely have their uses, but embedded in those large language models are some large language biases, as Bill is about to show despite the danger to himself.

The Science is Unsettling: new reports show that — please sit down — climate researchers not only consistently sold the worst-case scenario… they peddled predictions that went well BEYOND the worst-case scenario.

SpaceX. Tesla. Starlink. X. The Boring Company. xAI… developing and owning ANY of these modern-day marvels would be an achievement. Two would be astonishing, and three, MIRACULOUS. But all of them? On the eve of the SpaceX IPO, Steve, Scott and Bill try to figure out how this soon-to-be-TRILLIONAIRE pulls all this off?

A noted academic seems to be: A.) Having vocabulary issues; B.) Having cognition troubles; or C.) Is trolling us. Of course, it could be all three…

Donald Trump and the US Navy just put the ’N’ in the BBGN — Battleship, Guided Missile, NUCLEAR. As Steve Green points out, what’s the use of having a warship defended by sharks with firkin’ LASER BEAMS in their heads if it can’t sail round the world un-refueled for FIFTY YEARS?

Kids today! Hangin’ around after school, staying late to fulfill their hormone-driven passion for their CURSIVE CLUBS…

Spacetime. Wormholes. Warp Drives…. 20th Century physics, old-timer. It’s all a projection of quantum data nodes called Qubits… and 21st Century physics lets you do all sorts of cool things that Old Albert E. would not like AT ALL.

The Beast keeps getting Beaslier! We’re about a week away from the 12th test flight for the Starship program, but this will be the first launch of what appears to be the final configuration: Starship Mark III atop the new SuperHeavy booster and the first launch from Pad 2. It’s been SEVEN MONTHS since the last flight — an eternity for SpaceX. Is this the configuration that will get us back to the surface of the moon?

There’s a rootin’-tootin, Old West, land-grazin’ conflagration going on out on them dusty plains. Bison are somehow involved.

The Mayor of Seattle, Washington has publicly stated that everyone in the city should boycott Seattle’s signature brand — STARBUCKS — until the company takes a knee to Seattle’s Progressive politics and allows unionization of its workers. Starbucks’ reaction? LATER, LOSERS! We are OUT OF HERE! We’re going to need a bigger Nashville…

The new Michael Jackson biopic raises some interesting — and disturbing —questions about the nature and the price of genius… none of which are in the film.

Well, there’s been another attempt on President Trump’s life… but this one, if anything, is even more disturbing. THIS attempted assassin seems perfectly normal — within the Progressive Left’s echo chamber of murder.

After four generations of falling standards of education and increasing levels of political indoctrination, a report from Yale University suggests that this might pose a problem at some point in the future. Do the dinosaurs not understand that the asteroid has already struck?

In the last several years, the fighting strength of Britain’s Royal Navy has not just eroded — it has collapsed. What was once a thousand-ship fleet and the envy of the world can now barely put a handful of vessels to sea. And one will never understand the soul of Great Britain without fully grasping the mythological power of the Royal Navy in that island nation’s national consciousness.

For forty-seven years now, Iran’s knife to the throat of the West was to cut off Middle East oil by closing the Strait of Hormuz. NO ONE was ready for the response Iran got when that long-feared card was finally played.

A viral image of a rescued American airman turned out to be AI generated… perfectly. People believed it because while the expressions on the faces of the men may not have been REAL, they certainly were TRUE.

After 77 years, the greatest alliance in human history is definitely showing its age. Can a rudderless and increasingly anti-Western Europe be counted on any longer to provide the money and effort needed to save itself?

When Apollo 8 returned from humanities first trip to the moon in 1968, they didn’t waste any time about it: there were two more complete Apollo missions to fly before Apollo 11, a mere seven and a half months later. Artemis II is finally headed to the moon — and that truly is wonderful! — almost three and a half YEARS after Artemis I. Even the trajectory of Artemis II — let alone the entire program — seems a little too chill.

Our own Scott Ott came away from a science fiction movie mightily impressed! Was it extensive use of practical effects and lack of dead-eyed CGI? Or is there a deeper magic that Hollywood has not only abandoned, but learned to despise?

Scott Ott brings us some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that more young people than ever are in favor of socialism over capitalism. The good news is, it’s not the economic theory; it’s the NAME that’s the problem.

Criticism of Operation Epic Fury continues to come in from the usual suspects… and some of the unusual ones as well. In this episode of Right Angle, Scott, Steve and Bill wrestle not with strategy and objectives but rather morality and historical wisdom. Many times life is not about good and bad options; many times it’s about bad and worse ones.

What if government cutbacks meant getting rid of the poor performers rather than the poorly connected? Isn’t the idea of a MERITOCRACY built into the fundamental assumption about how a free people’s government works?

There’s no charity like American charity: voluntary, local and deeply PERSONAL. Bill Whittle brings us a look at an organization that gives as much to its donors as it does to its recipients.

‘They seek him here, they seek him there Those Yankees seek him everywhere! Is he in Heaven? Is he in Hell? That damned, elusive Pimpernel!’

It may be painful to admit, but Iran’s Shahed-136 drone is likely the state-of-the-art weapon for the mid 2020’s: simple, effective and CHEAP. There was a time when the Pentagon would not have stooped to produce something so basic. But Pete Hegseth’s War Department isn’t too proud to learn one of history’s most important lessons: when the enemy has a better weapon than you do, don’t deny it. COPY IT. Meet the SpektreWorks (!) LUCAS clone!

As we watch history being made on the other side of the world, it can all seem very clinical, very cut-and-dried. This time, however, Bill Whittle has skin in the game: his wife and stepdaughter were in Dubai when the attacks started, and are unable to leave until… well, nobody knows. Does having your closest loved ones in harm’s way affect the way you look at things? And what about all of our servicemen and women whose families have to deal with this every time someone ‘rolls the Iron Dice?’

Just the kind of itty bitty little thing that has already scrubbed several launch attempts and which NASA has only had THREE YEARS to fix.

It has been confirmed that Iran's (former) Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei did not survive the first few hours of Operation Epic Fury. As Bill, Steve and Scott discuss in this episode, Iran as a civilization is a clear step above that of Iraq and two steps above that of Afghanistan. President Trump has declared Epic Fury a gift to the people of Iran to throw off their oppressors. Will they take it?
