What will they have left when (or if) the running stops?
Look! The leftists have made up a new word!
Donald Trump’s MAGA movement owns the political issues supported by roughly 80% of the country.
Firefly’s Blue Ghost lander has become the first privately owned vehicle to land on another world.
Bill Whittle, Scott Ott and Steve Green bring you three different perspectives on three of the week’s top stories, with penetrating analysis, assorted-grade humor, and just a pinch of artisanally-selected, steel-cut snark; plus, an informal, wide-ranging, hour-long Member’s Only Backstage show: every week, without fail, since 2014.

Trump’s towering stature on Tuesday night was helped by the pettiness of the Democrats in the House.
Could the Republican optics have gotten any better… or could the Democrats optics have gotten any worse?
The most egregious personal data breech occurred during — you guessed it — the Biden administration.
Many of us are offended by federal workers being offended about being asked to list what they did last week!
I don’t think a day goes by without me seeing something genuinely wondrous on the internet, and so I finally decided that I would have to share them with as many people as I could. No politics here: just the weird and the wonderful without the slightest order or method. Just sit back and enjoy.
She was called ‘The Most Beautiful Woman that Ever Lived.’ They may have been right.
Another classic from the brilliant Mitchell and Webb Look
THINGS TO COME will be Bill’s next signature series. In their book, The Fourth Turning, historians William Strauss and Neil Howe provide compelling evidence that historical cycles have repeated themselves throughout history. Bill Whittle uses this theory to try to see an outline of the coming crisis.
The book, The Fourth Turning, describes an eighty-year cycle for historical events. Is this cycle real, and if so, what can we learn from it?
Assuming The Forth Turning’s theory is correct, Bill Whittle tries to predict what form the upcoming crisis will take.
In this third installment, host Bil Whittle looks at the most obvious of the Three Fronts: America’s decaying cities.
The second of the Three Fronts will be more dispersed than The Cities, but will hold many of the same challenges, namely lawlessness, violence and genuine heartache.
From Genesis to the Green Lantern, we humans have learned all of our moral values from the stories we tell to one another. In this brand-new series, host Bill Whittle will be having in-depth discussions with the mechanics that build our stories, as well as discussing the mechanics of how a good story is built. Confirmed so far are Jon Voight, Gary Sinise, Mike Rowe, Tom Dreesen, Adam Baldwin, Burt Rutan, Dick Rutan and Kelly Carlson, with more to follow. While we will release snippets from each episode, in the main this will be Members-Only content for the Citizen Producers here at BillWhittle.com.
Jon Voight reveals how to play The Heart of Gold and does a beat-by-beat walkthrough of Midnight Cowboy
Gary Sinise on Ken Mattingly and Supertruth in Apollo 13 and returning from the dead in Forrest Gump
Tom Dreesen uses his impeccable comic timing to kill with a joke, plus life on the road with Sinatra
Adam Baldwin on how to walk a fine line as the Tough Guy, and how to deadpan for a laugh in Firefly
Aeronautical design genius Burt Rutan talks about building his own space program and how to think outside the box.
Kelly Carlson on how a nice girl plays the femme fatale on Nip/Tuck and reflects on some of the dangers that come with celebrity.
The living embodiment of the Steely-Eyed Missile Man, Dick Rutan talks about driving the Hun low and fast over Vietnam and flying for nine days without sleeping.
MAJOR MACE MATTINGLY and the Last Men on the Moon will be Bill’s irreverent look at the politics of today by viewing 2024 America through the eyes of four Steely-Eyed Missile Men who have been on a Top Secret US Military Moonbase since 1966! Rendered in the Unreal 5 game engine, this CGI series will be visual knockout as well as a heck of a lot of fun.

Our biggest attention-getters, old and new
The Prime Minister of Great Britain put aside his ego to save his country. Did the President of Ukraine do the same?
This is a test of whether or not regular American citizens are fit to govern the country and enforce its laws.
