Bill Whittle Network

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?

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

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.

Now witness the intellectual firepower of this fully armed and operational Presidential candidate!

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.

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.

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!

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?’

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?

Some people have seen it before, in action. Steve Green brings us the report of an American special forces veteran who knows how to recognize a deadly pattern — and the plan behind it — when he sees one.

Obama wanted someone who would not outshine him so he selected Biden. Biden wanted someone who would not outshine him so he selected Harris. Harris wanted someone who would not outshine her, so she passed on Josh Shapiro.

Due to the enormous QUANTITATIVE advantage held by the Soviet Union during the Cold War, US policy shifted to maximizing the QUALITATIVE advantages of Western technology when it came to weapon systems. And so the US Army built what was unquestionable the best tank in the world: The M1A1 Abrams, also known as The Beast due to its battlefield dominance. But that was 1980. So what now? Meet the M1E3. And baby, The Beast is Back!

So often in the darkest hours of a nation’s history, an unknown figure appears to rally a declining civilization and return it to its natural greatness — Joan of Arc being a notable example. But Joan of Arc was REAL. Is it possible, in the digital age, that such a hero could be VIRTUAL? Why, yes. Yes it is possible.

Prices are still too high for many Americans. Combine that with the usual historical trend for the House to flip parties two years after a Presidential election and November could be grim for Republicans. But could a projected SIX PERCENT economic growth for 2026 save the midterms?
