What Price DIGNITY?
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 BESSENT Doctrine
‘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!

The LOST Declaration
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.

America at 250
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.

Best Birthday Present EVER
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.

65 MILLION Pounds of DEAD MEAT
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

Squatter Busters
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.

LIFE and DEATH on the Modern Battlefield
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.
-
492
THANK YOU, Mark Zuckerberg
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.
-
491
In Defense of SHAME
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.
-

Overdue Justice for CNN?
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.
-
489
Forget It Spencer, it’s Chinatown.
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.

488
The Odyssey’s ACHILLES HEEL
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.
-
487
Happy (Belated) Birthday, CLINT.
Introductions? LEGENDS DON’T NEED NO STINKING INTRODUCTIONS!!
-
486
This is not about MISOGYNY
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.
-
485
#1 Cause of Global Warming: GASLIGHTING
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.
-
484
The Visionary
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?
-
483
This is not SOCIALISM
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…
-
482
Put a Nuke in It and make it AWESOME
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?
-

The Unlikely Return of PENMANSHIP
Kids today! Hangin’ around after school, staying late to fulfill their hormone-driven passion for their CURSIVE CLUBS…
-
480
The Universe is made out of INFORMATION
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.
-
479
Time for the STARSHIP MARK III
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?
-

Save the Cowboys! (And also the Ribeyes!)
There’s a rootin’-tootin, Old West, land-grazin’ conflagration going on out on them dusty plains. Bison are somehow involved.
-
477
Starbucks vs. Seattle: LATER, LOSERS! [With Corrected Audio]
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…
-
476
MICHAEL: What Price Genius?
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.
-
475
Normalizing MURDER
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.
-
474
Is There Any Hope Left for ACADEMIA?
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?
-
473
It’s Not Too Late, BRITANNIA
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.
-
472
BLOCKADE!
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.
-
471
The image is FAKE but the sentiment is REAL
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.
-
470
What Now, NATO?
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?
-
469
Apollo vs Artemis: A Tale of Two Trajectories
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.

PROJECT HAIL MARY: When Hollywood Doesn’t Hate You
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?
-
467
By Any Other Name
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.
-
466
My Country: Right or Wrong?
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.
-
465
‘A MERITOCRACY… if you can keep it’
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?
-
464
A Little Piece of Heaven
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.
-
463
Schrödinger's Ayatollah
‘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!’
-
462
Attack of the Clones
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!
-
461
Skin in the Game in Dubai
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?’

Artemis II Experiences a Minor Technical Problem
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.
-
459
What’s Next For Iran?
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?

DO NOT REDEEM!! DO NOT REDEEM!! DO NOT REDEEM!!
Justice comes in many forms. Sometimes it something as simple as seeing a absolutely evil, rotten bastards get trolled so hard they completely LOSE THEIR MINDS. Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear telephone headsets. Check out Kitboga’s channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@KitbogaShow

457
Marco the Magnificent
While Democrat hopefuls Gavin Newsom and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sputtered and bumbled their way across Europe, Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a speech to the Munich Security Conference that was elegant yet simple, friendly yet firm, and deeply moral yet grounded in reality. It was the latest masterstroke from the most capable and effective Secretaries of State in living memory — and perhaps, of all time.
-
456
Thinking is Hard
Now witness the intellectual firepower of this fully armed and operational Presidential candidate!
-
455
Back to the Moon
You can never be too sure about the future — mostly because it hasn’t happened yet. But absolutely lost in the background noise of a typical news week in 2026 was what might turn out to be one of the most important announcements in human history.
-
454
The Slow, Gentle Goodbye
Britain’s own Virtual Joan of Arc is back again, and this time she’s singing a different tune. Amelia — product of a totalitarian state Reeducation Camp campaign gone horribly right — flips the script on the Left’s cruelty narrative in a remarkably kind and gentle way. This is political messaging at its absolute finest.

453
SLATE: One Size Doesn’t Fit All
Suppose you have a nice SUV and That Friend Of Yours needs help moving over the weekend. Right now you have a great excuse… but with this revolutionary new idea from a car company called Slate, you could just… you know… CONVERT the SUV into a pickup and then back again. It’s quite a concept: and Scott Ott is a True Believer!
-
452
Artificial ‘Intelligence’?
If you have spent any real time with Large Language Model (LLM) AI systems like Grok or ChatGPT, you probably know the pattern: ‘OMG this is AMAZING!’ ‘Okay, not ‘amazing’ but still really useful!’ ‘Can come in handy sometimes.’ ‘I probably should double-check all of this.’ ‘REALLY?’
-
451
OBSOLETE
As Scott Ott asks, ’How many times are we gonna have to rescue this dame?’ After yet another bailout attempt, The Washington Post has announced a leaner, more accurate version of itself is in the works. But the bigger question isn’t about the Post so much as it is about the entire idea of a ‘newspaper.’ Have they already gone the way of the Dry Goods Store without even realizing it?
