Lightning Round: U.S. Troops 'Tragically' Skilled, AOC Smears Biden as Too Conservative

January 13, 2020 12:37 - 15 minutes - 14 MB

Stephen Green brings us a grab bag of top (and bottom) headlines, ambushing Bill Whittle and Scott Ott with questions, including: - Why The New York Times calls U.S. troops "tragically" good. - Does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have a point when she quips that Joe Biden is so conservative they'd be in different parties in any other country? - When will George Lopez get a visit from the Secret Service after joking about a bounty on President Trump? Plus more fun with gun grabbers, George Soros, an...

Aiding and Abetting: How Democrat Candidates Attack Trump's Iran Attack

January 10, 2020 13:16 - 20 minutes - 19 MB

Will Democrat presidential candidates show restraint when they attack President Trump's attack on Iran's Qassem Soleimani, because American security and global reputation is more important than scoring political points? And how much crowing about military accomplishments will American voters tolerate from the incumbent? Bill Whittle Now with Scott Ott is a production of our Members.

January 10, 2020 12:14 - 17 minutes - 23.9 MB

Ricky Gervais tells Hollywood celebrities to skip the political lecture: "you know nothing about the real world." He then instructs them to "come up here, take your award, thank your agent and your God, then get the f*#@ off the stage." And that was just the beginning of an epic take-down of these hypocrites at the 2020 Golden Globe awards. Right Angle with Bill Whittle, Stephen Green and Scott Ott, is a production of our Members, who run their own private blog, enjoy backstage content, a M...

January 09, 2020 12:30 - 15 minutes - 14.1 MB

After frantic headlines and social media memes claimed President Trump's decision to strike Iran's chief terror leader, Qassem Suleimani, had started World War III, the American Left must view this WWIII as a disappointment.

January 09, 2020 11:57 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MB

Iran retaliates for the death of Quds force leader Qassem Soleimani with a ballistic missile barrage. Its government says this "slap" inflicted heavy casualties on U.S. troops.

3 Trump Facts That Should Scare Democrats: Money, Black Men and Latinos

January 09, 2020 11:32 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MB

President Donald Trump is doing three things that should "scare the hell out of Democrats" according to Jonathan Capehart in the Washington Post. Bill Whittle thinks Capehart almost gets it, and then goes wildly off the rails. Can Trump's historic campaign war chest, plus his outreach to Blacks and Latinos virtually assure his reelection?

Soleimani Drone Strike: Did Trump Just Start World War III or Stop It?

January 07, 2020 14:44 - 21 minutes - 29.4 MB

When U.S. President Donald Trump ordered a drone strike on Iran's Quds Force leader Qassem Soleimani, he says it was to prevent an attack and perhaps stop a war. But many on the American Left say he made the region even more unstable and may have lit the fuse for World War III. If the Islamic Republic of Iran reacts with a strike on U.S. assets, personnel or allies, should the President ask Congress for a declaration of war? And hasn't Iran been at war with the U.S. since the 1979 hostage cri...

December 26, 2019 12:05 - 22 minutes - 31.5 MB

The lede spells out just why so many conservatives overlooked their concerns, and voted for Donald Trump, and why many more will do so in November 2020. "After three years in office President Donald has remade the federal judiciary, ensuring a conservative tilt for decades, and cementing his legacy no matter the outcome of November's election." -- Colby Itkowitz, reporter, Washington Post, 12/21/2019 Our May 2020 Royal Caribbean 3-night Bahamas cruise will allow you to relax, unwind, hangou...

Pelosi Gone Wild: Crazy Impeachment Tactics Make No Sense

December 24, 2019 22:25 - 11 minutes - 16.4 MB

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has done every crazy thing but froth at the mouth during the impeachment process. A sane person trying to understand her tactics might conclude that Pelosi has gone wild.

Impeach Trump AGAIN: Will New Democrat Threat Guarantee His Reelection?

December 24, 2019 13:39 - 20 minutes - 28.1 MB

New Democrat threat to impeach President Trump again emerges from court filing. They may do it if former White House counsel Don McGahn doesn't testify about Trump's possible obstruction of justice during the Mueller probe of Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election. Do the Democrats know something that the polls don't show about how the American people see their endless efforts to replay 2016, and to eject the 45th President of the United States? And if they're plunging to their 2020 e...

December 23, 2019 11:42 - 15 minutes - 20.8 MB

Male piglets sue in German court to stop their castration by hog farmers. To be more specific, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) go to court on behalf of the piglets. Farmers castrate most young boars because if they don't the meat will suffer from "boar taint." But this episode of Right Angle is more about law than bacon.

The Rise of Skywalker hits theaters this weekend, and Bill Whittle sees nothing rising -- but rather an epic unmaking of a once-great story.

Half of USA Dead Wrong: Trump Impeached with Zero GOP Votes, Tulsi Votes Present

December 19, 2019 13:23 - 25 minutes - 34.8 MB

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard proposed censure instead of impeachment of President Trump. (Failing that, she voted 'present' on impeachment.) With the Democrats and Republicans so divided on the question, is it possible that the representatives of half of the country are disingenuous, deceptive, ill-informed, deceived and/or evil? Are virtually Democratic lawmakers unwilling captives of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other party leaders, or just bad people? Are all Republican lawmakers honest, well-info...

Cruel and Usual: Supreme Court Lets Homeless People Sleep on Sidewalk

December 18, 2019 12:59 - 17 minutes - 23.9 MB

The U.S. Supreme Court refuses to review a 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decision that Boise, Idaho, violated the 8th Amendment rights of homeless people by levying a small fine for sleeping on the sidewalk. Is keeping public spaces clear of vagrants "cruel and unusual punishment" if no suitable homeless shelters exist?

Trump Impeached: Instead of a Speedy Trial, the Senate Should Dismiss the Charges

Join Bill Whittle, Stephen Green and Scott Ott on a Royal Caribbean cruise in May 2020. https://BillWhittleCruise.com ----- Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell plans a speedy impeachment trial that rapidly acquits President Donald Trump of the two charges brought by the House.

Now Trump Won't Eliminate Inefficient Agency That Employs 5,500 Bureaucrats

December 16, 2019 13:08 - 25 minutes - 34.7 MB

There's bipartisan agreement that the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is inefficient, using antiquated and vulnerable computer systems. But after 18 months of trying to eliminate an agency that employs 5,500 bureaucrats, President Trump now says he won't. Despite telling campaign crowds he would cut the size of government so fast your head will spin, he has accomplished no substantial reductions in the size or scope of the federal bureaucracy. Should Republicans abandon their talk of end...

Success Shaming: Mayor Pete Outed for Private-Sector Work, Forced to Explain

December 13, 2019 12:56 - 19 minutes - 27 MB

His Democrat presidential rivals have outed Mayor Pete Buttigieg for his private-sector work as a McKinsey consultant, and forced him to explain it away. Will success shaming catapult Democrats to victory in 2020, or are there still enough Democratic voters who don't work for government to steer the party away from bashing business -- the engine that enables government to give away free college, free health care and more?

Hillary Clinton Tops Biden in New Poll: In Frozen Field Democrats Can't Let It Go

December 13, 2019 12:21 - 13 minutes - 19 MB

A new Harvard Harris poll shows Hillary Clinton tops Joe Biden in a theoretical race -- a theory which the former FLOTUS is doing everything she can to nudge toward reality. Will her personal grassroots Draft Hillary movement break up the frozen field of Democrat presidential contenders. After years of disappointment, crowned by the 2016 #HillaryFAIL , why can't Democrats let it go? Right Angle is a production of the paying Members who want to see these ideas spread.

Culture Clash: Pensacola Shooter Felt Bullied by "Pornstache" Nickname

December 12, 2019 12:02 - 19 minutes - 26.9 MB

The Saudi aviation student who opened fire at Pensacola Naval Air Station, murdering three U.S. sailors and wounding eight, had posted a short manifesto on Twitter decrying the actions of the "crusaders" -- the United States and Israel -- and encouraging jihad. But this episode of Right Angle focuses an a smaller aspect of the story -- the shooter's reaction to being dubbed "pornstache" by an instructor. Bill Whittle tells of his personal tactical call sign ceremony, as we consider the cultur...

Unwinnable: Do Afghanistan Papers Prove Officials Lied to Keep War Going?

December 11, 2019 12:44 - 21 minutes - 29.9 MB

The Washington Post publishes documents released through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request about the U.S. war in Afghanistan, claiming they show that U.S. officials promoted a rosy view of progress, when behind the scenes they knew the war was unwinnable. Did the government really waste huge sums of money on an effort it knew was fatally flawed, while insiders acknowledged we don't understand the local culture, and couldn't distinguish good guys from bad guys. Bill Whittle Now wit...

Impeach Trump: The Democrat Party's 2020 Election Concession Speech

December 11, 2019 12:00 - 11 minutes - 15.9 MB

Bill Whittle thinks he now understands why Democrats continue to pursue their Quixotic impeachment dream. It's the Democrat Party's 2020 election concession speech. They know they can't convict or remove him from office, and they know they can't beat him in November. Why do you think they continue down this path?

December 10, 2019 11:58 - 29 minutes - 40.2 MB

Justice Department Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz releases his report essentially clearing former FBI officials James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, and others, of launching an investigation into the Trump campaign's connections with Russia for political reasons.

However, the IG report points out "serious performance failures" in the FISA court application to spy on Trump foreign-policy adviser Carter Page -- failures t...

Virginity Test: Rapper T.I. Makes His Teen Take Annual...Wait, That's Not a Thing

December 09, 2019 11:56 - 12 minutes - 17.8 MB

In one of the weirder stories we've heard, rapper T.I. says he takes his teen daughter for annual virginity tests. New York State lawmakers propose a law banning the hymen-check procedure, but gynecologists say: Wait, that's not a thing. Do parents have unlimited rights to make decisions for their children, even when it involves invasive probes like this? Do we welcome immigrants who subject their daughters to so-called virginity tests? At what age does your individual liberty begin? Right A...

The Truth Behind the Headline: Trump Cuts 750,000 Off Food Stamps

December 06, 2019 13:36 - 17 minutes - 24.4 MB

The Bloomberg headline says "Trump Administration Moves to End Food Stamps for 750,000", and that sounds bad during an election year. But as Scott Ott digs deeper into the story, he finds details that don't make great anti-Trump clickbait.

New Trump Homeland Power to Grab Your Photo Entering or Leaving USA

December 06, 2019 12:34 - 23 minutes - 31.8 MB

The Trump administration proposes to grab your photo anytime you enter or leave the USA. This new power comes at a time when China builds facial profiles from DNA samples to target 'dangerous' minorities, your phone makes a 3-D map of your face, and Edward Snowden's new book -- Permanent Record -- shows how the NSA sweeps up all data and stores it forever. Where's the Republican party that stood for individual rights? Does the GOP's law-and-order inclination send it down the slippery slope to...

A.G. Bill Barr: Police Won't Protect Communities That Don't Support Them

December 05, 2019 12:58 - 21 minutes - 30.2 MB

“If communities don’t give that support and respect, they might find themselves without the police protection they need," says U.S. Attorney General William Barr, the top law enforcement officer in the federal government. Should this implied threat concern residents of those communities? Just who is he speaking to? Is there a racial component to his remarks or are Trump administration critics reading into it for their own political benefit? Bill Whittle Now with Scott Ott comes to you 20 tim...

Crude Oil and Kanye: Two Signs of Up-Side Hope After Years of Plummeting

December 05, 2019 11:57 - 25 minutes - 34.8 MB

The United States becomes a net exporter of crude oil, and Kanye West comes to Christ. Bill Whittle sees a connection, and great hope, in these two recent phenomena. After years of plummeting as a nation, the rate of descent has decreased, and we may now be on the up side. Bill Whittle, Scott Ott and Stephen Green have made a panel discussion show five times each week for about 11 years, thanks to Members who contribute to their work.

Biden Bit My Finger: Plus, Kids Loved to Rub Joe's Hairy Legs

December 04, 2019 13:57 - 12 minutes - 16.9 MB

You won't believe a leading candidate for president said this -- or did that -- but former Veep Joe Biden tells a weird tale about his days as a lifeguard, and he bite's his wife's finger...on the campaign stump. Did Biden's speech writer pen the story about how kids loved to rub Joe's hairy legs? Does he have anyone on his staff to restrain him from raving? Should we be seriously concerned that something is mentally wrong with the leading Democratic presidential candidate? Right Angle with S...

Credibility Swamp: Norah O'Donnell Moves CBS Evening News to the Center of Everything

December 04, 2019 13:17 - 17 minutes - 24.6 MB

Lagging far behind ABC World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News, the CBS Evening News moves to "the center of where everything is happening" with new anchor Norah O'Donnell. Will proximity to the action in Washington D.C. save the once-great newscast? If CBS can't make it in New York, New York, can they make it anywhere? Is the network merely trying to ride Donald Trump's ratings coat-tails? Or did they just wade into the credibility swamp, doomed to sink in the liar mire, long after viewers l...

Even Republican States Don't Want Trump's Refugee Ban: Utah Would Welcome More

December 03, 2019 13:44 - 26 minutes - 36.5 MB

In September, President Trump told states by executive order that they can ban refugees, but as of now, not one state has taken him up on the offer. Trump capped refugee arrivals at 18,000 -- down from an Obama administration high of 110,000. Is this about numbers alone, or about the kinds (races and religions) of people who tend to be refugees? Why do even Republican states seem ready to welcome the very people President Trump and his supporters want to keep out. Bill Whittle Now with Scot...

Major Black Business Leader Calls 2020 Trump's to Lose: Democrats Can't Compete

December 02, 2019 14:20 - 19 minutes - 26.6 MB

Major business leader, Bob Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment TV (BET), tells CNBC that the 2020 presidential election is Donald Trump's to lose. No one can dominate the news cycle like Trump, and the Democratic presidential candidates have moved to far from the center to appeal to the super-majority of Black voters the Democrats require in order to win the White House, Johnson says.

The Second Time the World Nearly Ended: Meet the Two Men Who Saved Us

December 02, 2019 12:49 - 19 minutes - 27.6 MB

At least twice during the United States' Cold War with the Soviet Union, a massive nuclear missile launch loomed within seconds. In each case, a single man -- going against military orders -- saved us from nuclear annihilation. Each time, that man was a Soviet officer. The second time the world nearly ended is a rarely told tale that will chill those who lived through that era, and send a striking message about how the wrong algorithm can get us all killed.

Democrat Race: Which Candidates Will Survive to Get Beaten by Donald Trump?

November 27, 2019 12:39 - 11 minutes - 16 MB

As Elizabeth Warren appears to fade, Bernie Sanders inches up, and Joe Biden startles everyone by continuing to draw breath, Pete Buttigieg and Tulsi Gabbard gain strength. Iowa looms around the bend, and Democrats still can't decide if they prefer a socialist geezer, a moderate man-child, or some other intersectional mashup.

The Democrat Ticket That Scares Trump Most: Mayor Pete & Tulsi Gabbard

November 27, 2019 12:01 - 13 minutes - 19.1 MB

Douglas McKinnon writing at TheHill.com says the Democratic ticket that scares President Trump the most is Mayor Pete Buttigieg with Rep. Tulsi Gabbard. Two young, telegenic, military veterans, who can think on their feet and connect through the camera with apparent authenticity -- even Bill Whittle thinks they're the best pairing in the current field. Will the Democratic establishment bypass Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders to connect with their more moderate base? Does anyone...

Bad Order: Navy Secretary Spencer Out After Trump Steps Into SEAL-Trident Controversy

November 26, 2019 11:58 - 20 minutes - 28 MB

Secretary of the Navy Richard Spencer gets fired. Defense Secretary Mark Esper says Spencer is out for attempting a dishonest back-channel deal with President Trump that bucked the chain of command. Spencer said he's out because he could not, in good conscience, follow the Commander-in-Chief's tweeted "order" to let SEAL Eddie Gallagher retire with his Trident, rather than facing a review board -- and potentially being forced out -- for taking an inappropriate picture with an enemy corpse. Bi...

From 9/11 to Tea Party to Trump: Bill Whittle Now Marks 300th Show with Look Back

Bill Whittle Now with Scott Ott now has 300 episodes in the can, and we pause to consider how Bill got into this political realm, how it has changed since the blogs of 2002 in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, and where his hope lies for the future in the age of Trump.

No Defense for Trump? "Almost Everyone" Believes Trump Did It

November 25, 2019 12:02 - 23 minutes - 31.8 MB

Who will defend Donald Trump in his Senate trial if the House passes articles of impeachment, and how? That's the question posed by former Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan in the Wall Street Journal, who says Trump will face "charges almost everyone will believe are true." Does any Republican think that President Trump would not do what the witnesses say he did? Or are Republicans willing to concede the facts, but simply deny they merit impeachment and removal from office. Perhaps Senate Repu...
