Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words

Public sympathy for Lindsay Clancy reflects a broader culture that searches for explanations when women commit horrific acts while increasingly treating men as presumptively guilty or disposable. He contends that these attitudes—combined with years of attacks on masculinity and unequal expectations in relationships and institutions—are helping convince a generation of young men to withdraw from dating, marriage, and family life, argues Victor Davis Hanson on tomorrow’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words”Victor Davis Hanson also argues that Democrats increasingly embraced policies once associated with the socialist left, only to watch candidates distance themselves from the socialist label when competing beyond safely Democratic constituencies. He contrasts that political repositioning with Donald Trump’s unapologetic style, arguing that voters may dislike what Trump says but rarely have to wonder whether he actually means it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA MovementThe Daily Signal, the proud producers of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” has a special limited time offer:  With a monthly donation $28, you’ll become BOTH a Signal Elite Supporter AND receive a copy of “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement”Click here to order: https://secured.dailysignal.com/support-daily-signal-today/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=signalelite&utm_content=260820-vdh-book-youtube The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites: Visit https://historicsites.heritage.org/ to start your adventure today.

Iran is facing mounting economic pressure as new sanctions target the regime’s finances, trade, and access to foreign markets. With its currency collapsing, critical supplies running short, and economic pressure continuing to build, a popular uprising against the regime could have major consequences for Iran, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Lebanon, Syria, and the wider Middle East. Mark Carney’s confrontation with Donald Trump comes as Canada struggles with slow economic growth, mass immigration, heavy regulation, and its dependence on the United States for trade and defense. In the United States, the consequences of open-border policies are becoming harder to ignore, while democratic socialism continues to move closer to the center of the Democratic Party. The modern Democratic Party increasingly bears little resemblance to the party of earlier generations as its politics move further toward the activist left.

The U.S.-Canada trade war is heating up again as President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney clash over tariffs, trade, and the terms of their economic relationship. Victor Davis Hanson argues that Carney’s confrontation with Trump is driven less by Canada’s economic strength than by political calculations—and that Canada may have far more to lose in a prolonged fight with its biggest trading partner. Jack Fowler and Hanson also discuss Iran and the weakening of its regime, the impact of U.S. sanctions, the decline of Iranian-backed groups including Hezbollah and Hamas, and the possibility of a future uprising.

CORRECTION: “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” from Friday, Aug. 21, 2026, aired this morning. This was an error. This is the actual show for today, Aug. 28, 2026. We hope you enjoy it, and we apologize again for the error. Marco Rubio’s strength heading into 2028, Victor Davis Hanson argues, is that he has the experience and foreign-policy toughness to advance Trump’s agenda while potentially broadening the movement’s appeal, particularly with Hispanic voters.  “I think a lot of people are talking about recent polls about the 2028 presidential election. I don't trust any of the polls because they're all slanted. “I do not believe, right now, that Pete Buttigieg is polling ahead of both Marco Rubio and J.D. Vance. That's not possible. “But an Emerson poll said that Rubio polls anywhere from three to five points higher than J.D. Vance does against putative 2028 Democratic candidates Pete Buttigieg, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Gavin Newsom, etc. “OK, so there's this sense now that Rubio's name keeps coming up. And we have to ask two questions: Why? And what are his strengths and weaknesses vis-a-vis Vance?”  🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA MovementThe Daily Signal, the proud producers of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” has a special limited time offer:  With a monthly donation $28, you’ll become BOTH a Signal Elite Supporter AND receive a copy of “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement”Click here to order: https://secured.dailysignal.com/support-daily-signal-today/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=signalelite&utm_content=260820-vdh-book-youtube   Alliance Defending Freedom - Visit http://www.JoinADF.com/HANSON or text HANSON to 83848 and for a limited time your first gift to ADF will be DOUBLED by a special matching grant—while funds last.

Donald Trump’s unconventional foreign policy has reshaped America’s position abroad, from Iran and the Strait of Hormuz to Russia, China, NATO, and the Western Hemisphere. Behind the seemingly chaotic rhetoric is a strategy built around unpredictability, pressure, and forcing both allies and adversaries to reconsider their assumptions about American power. Blue-state efforts to block the Trump administration from obtaining commercial driver’s license information raise new concerns about illegal immigrants operating commercial trucks and public safety on America’s highways. New York lawmakers’ defense of shoplifting also highlights the consequences of tolerating low-level crime for businesses, consumers, and communities. Artificial intelligence, drones, robotics, and new weapons are changing the modern battlefield without necessarily changing the fundamental nature of war. Battles over American education are unfolding at the same time, from a controversial California high school mosque trip to disputes over how Western civilization is taught and racial disparities at New York City’s elite Stuyvesant High School.

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey impresses with spectacular visuals; but it misses the heart of Homer's epic, argues Victor Davis Hanson. On today's edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words, Hanson explores the historical origins of The Odyssey, explaining how the poem blends Mycenaean history, Greek mythology, and oral tradition into one of Western civilization's foundational works.

The conversation then turns to two transformative American presidents, Andrew Jackson and Ronald Reagan. Hanson examines Jackson's populism, expansion of executive power, and enduring legacy, before reflecting on Reagan's rise from California governor to president, his economic agenda, and why he became one of the defining conservative leaders of the twentieth century. re-order “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement” NOW: https://www.amazon.com/Counterrevolution-Fall-Donald-Trump-Movement-ebook/dp/B0GF1K43WM NEW FILM: “Sacred Honor: The Declaration That Defines a Nation,” featuring Victor Davis Hanson, is OUT NOW! https://youtu.be/O1d3gn_H8ow Vaer Watches - Visit http://Vaerwatches.com/VDH Pure Health Research - Visit http://purehealthresearch.com and use coupon code VICTOR to save 35% on your order today.

An IRS employee who leaked thousands of confidential tax records, non-citizens mistakenly receiving ballots, and Zohran Mamdani's pledge to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu all fuel this week's political firestorm.

Recent polling from Pew Research shows young Americans—especially Democrats under 30—favor Palestinians over Israelis, which Victor Davis Hanson attributes to campus-driven mass-cult politics, celebrity activism, and a Marxist oppressor-victim framework rather than historical knowledge. Hanson argues the post–Oct. 7 anti-Israel surge was not tied to events in Gaza and compares it to fading fads like Me Too and BLM, while criticizing prominent anti-Israel figures and “cosmic morality” that ignores concrete victims. Hanson touch on U.S.-Israel-Iran tensions, questioning claims that Israel wants war to continue and criticizing conspiracy narratives about Jews and the Mossad. Hanson then contrasts James Monroe’s presidency and the Monroe Doctrine with Bill Clinton’s record, praising Clinton-era budget surpluses while condemning his character and ruthless politics.

At home, the Tyler Robinson case adds another test of accountability, justice, and political violence.

In this Friday news roundup, Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc discuss Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner “suspending” his campaign amid multiple allegations and party maneuvering, arguing Democrats only abandon candidates when polls turn, and they one of their own are hurt. They shift to Iran, endorsing renewed, disproportionate U.S. strikes to deter attacks and disrupt Iran’s trade routes to China and Russia while rejecting any deployment of U.S. ground troops. Hanson dismisses reports of European leaders plotting a U.S. “breakup” as empty posturing driven by defense dependence and trade surpluses. The episode also critiques DEI-driven cultural narratives, including casting and feminist criticism surrounding a new “The Odyssey” film, and supports Trump’s push to redirect Smithsonian exhibits away from what Hanson calls politicized pseudo-history toward a fuller account of American achievements and complexity, ending with viewer comments and broader criticism of Democratic messaging on energy, crime, and immigration.

Is America becoming more divided at home—and more isolated abroad? Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler examine the media firestorm surrounding the July 4 Patriot Front photo, arguing that public attention is often shaped by selective coverage rather than consistent standards.  They discuss recent teen takeover incidents, rising concerns about crime, and the state of race relations in America, while debating how decades of public policy have contributed to today's challenges. The conversation also explores growing divisions within the Democratic Party, as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro distances himself from the party's socialist wing, and whether moderates can reclaim influence. Hanson argues that Europe is increasingly dependent on the United States while pursuing policies that have weakened its own economic and military strength. The episode also discusses Tucker Carlson's suggestion that America needs a third party, his break with President Trump over foreign policy, and what those disagreements reveal about the future of the conservative movement.

The extreme socialist and Communist policies taking over California and New York may be coming from your hometown next. Victor Davis Hanson discusses the failure of elite socialists like Gavin Newsom, the infiltration of Islam into the Democrat Party, and the tribalism Leftists are forcing throughout the country. Victor Davis Hanson points out the flaws in the socialist’s arguments, noting most of them are products of privilege. For example, Mamdani and Omar belong to the wealthiest and most privileged part of the minority community. Meanwhile, California serves as the blueprint for the rest of the country if Americans continue to elect them. Hanson also calls out the hypocrisy of many immigrants who criticize America, noting they have a duty to learn American history and assimilate into the culture. Instead, many immigrants would often rather learn about oppression, transphobia, and tribalism. “Sacred Honor: The Declaration That Defines a Nation,” featuring Victor Davis Hanson, is OUT NOW! https://youtu.be/O1d3gn_H8ow  Cove Pure - CovePure is giving VDH’s audience $250 off if you use this link: https://CovePure.com/VDH Don’t wait!

Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc discuss on this special July 4th edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” why the U.S. republic has endured for 250 years. They cite secondary advantages—vast resources, continental unity, and ocean buffers—but emphasize the Constitution’s mixed government, intricate checks and balances, and the Bill of Rights for its continued survival. Victor notes the amendment process is intentionally difficult, requiring supermajorities in Congress and the states. The American Revolution is contrasted with the French Revolution as a limited political break that preserved British Enlightenment traditions, religious tolerance, and avoided radical cultural rupture. Cultural foundations include the absence of serfdom, an ideal of independent agrarian citizenship, lack of formal class titles, and social mobility. They argue Americans historically emulate success rather than envy it, warning that rising envy threatens national cohesion. The system is described as complex, hard to replicate abroad, designed to restrain power given flawed human nature, and dependent on an educated populace—now seen as weakening.

The Supreme Court’s new rulings on mail-in ballots, Scott Wiener’s apparent ‘betrayal’ of his trans allies, and the rampant immigration fraud within this country are all discussed on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Hanson recounts October 7 and the genocide that Hamas committed toward the Jewish people. This is why it is surprising that State Sen. Scott Wiener, Jewish, caved to his fellow Democrats and recanted his support for Israel. It turns out Democrats don’t mind turning on each other. The conversation turns towards the major decisions released by the Supreme Court in its final day of its term. Notably, the Court ruled that mail in ballots can arrive after Election Day, despite the massive fraud associated with the practice.   Lastly, Hanson discusses the large percentage of farmland being sold to foreign powers and the immigration crisis that still plagues the country.

Iran’s reported ceasefire violations, Trump’s retaliatory strikes, and Victor Davis Hanson’s view that future U.S. responses may need expanded “dual-use” targeting to deter Tehran while managing oil prices and public opinion are all discussed on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Hanson recounts speaking with European diplomatic figures who he says dislike Trump, resent not being consulted, and asked extensively about J.D. Vance, NATO burden-sharing, and Trump’s Greenland and Panama pressure tactics. The conversation turns to Watergate and Nixon’s legacy, Democrat leaders’ anxiety over rising DSA-aligned candidates, and criticism of Democrats defending recently sentenced Antifa-linked attackers. They also address rhetoric from a Minnesota school board member, open-border consequences, and Hanson’s claim that the WNBA’s mistreatment of Caitlin Clark reflects broader cultural and racial polarization and warrants a boycott or her departure from the league. 👉“Sacred Honor: The Declaration That Defines a Nation” Subscribe to The Daily Signal’s YouTube channel and enable notifications to be alerted the moment the documentary premieres: https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1 👉Alliance Defending Freedom - Visit www.JoinADF.com/HANSON or text HANSON to 83848 to give today.

They also discuss New York politician Zohran Mamdani’s attacks on AIPAC, exploring what seems to be a growing antisemitism and anti-Israel sentiment from within the American Left. The episode critiques Kamala Harris’ political future and public messaging, while also examining reports that Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene could even break with the Republican Party over disagreements regarding Iran and Israel.

Victor Davis Hanson interviews Marine combat veteran and military author Francis J. “Bing” West about West’s new book, “CAT5: The 2033 War,” which argues the U.S. won battles in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan yet suffered strategic defeat because leaders lacked clear end-state objectives and assumed America could do anything without consequences—a “Jupiter complex.”  West warns that by 2031–2033 U.S. debt-service could reach about 25% of tax revenue, risking higher interest rates, inflation, and a credibility collapse, while defense spending in real terms has fallen and China could exploit U.S. financial and political paralysis, potentially pressuring Taiwan via blockade. They discuss possible debt “solutions” (inflation, seizing private capital, or renouncing debt), U.S. division blocking reform, Pentagon efforts to rapidly field large numbers of low-cost AI drones, and the political fight over AI and militarizing space capabilities.

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler argue that President Trump is pursuing a pragmatic strategy: preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon while avoiding another costly Middle East ground war.  They discuss how Iran has been militarily humiliated, that time is working against the regime, and that any future violations should be met with swift, disproportionate retaliation. The episode also offers a vigorous defense of Israel, with Hanson arguing that U.S. aid to Israel serves American interests through intelligence sharing, weapons testing, and regional stability. He criticizes both European allies and elements of the populist right for distancing themselves from Israel and downplaying the Iranian threat. Hanson takes aim at Tucker Carlson’s defense of controversial political figure Graham Phelan, arguing that allegations surrounding extremist symbolism and past conduct deserve scrutiny and should not be dismissed for political convenience. The conversation closes with criticism of Gavin Newsom’s leadership in California and a skeptical assessment of Barack Obama’s legacy, with Hanson questioning both the accomplishments celebrated at the Obama Presidential Center and the broader record of the Obama years. 👉Cove Pure - CovePure is giving VDH’s audience $250 off if you use this link: CovePure.com/VDH.

Vance takes the lead defending the administration’s strategy in a series of high-profile media appearances. Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc start by breaking down the emerging Iran deal.

“ Had the roles been reversed, the whole Black community would be up in arms. “They would say it was murder. But what I'm getting at is that America is so over that now. “After the ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ Michael Brown case—That was a complete lie. The Jussie Smollett case about MAGA people, that was a complete lie. The Duke lacrosse psychodrama, that was a complete lie. The Tawana Brawley rape hoax, that was a complete lie, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”   In this Friday news roundup, Victor Davis Hanson and co-host Sami Winc discuss the Karmelo Anthony murder conviction and reactions to it, arguing the facts were clear and contrasting it with past high-profile race narratives they call false. They also cover violent incidents involving immigrants, including an attempted beheading in Belfast, and claim public anger in the UK and U.S. is growing due to immigration, crime, and what they describe as a two-tier justice system and collapsing “critical legal theory” frameworks. Hanson criticizes prominent figures such as Cardi B and Jasmine Crockett for their comments, contends racial favoritism and DEI policies have fueled resentment, and says universities worsened racial relations. The episode also turns to California politics, alleging legalized vote-harvesting and lax election rules in Los Angeles races, and concludes with commentary on Democrat Senate candidate Graham Plattner and praise for renovations to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

Victor Davis Hanson argues that recent events have exposed the failures of past U.S. policy toward Iran, while also highlighting deeper problems at home—from FBI investigations targeting traditional Catholics, to media bias at CBS and NBC, to Trump’s recent callout of NBC's “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker.

I can think of three races where Californian Republicans in purple districts clearly won on Election Day—they've even had victory celebrations. And then it starts just like this. You start to see the mail‑in ballots and then trickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, and the portions have nothing to do with the proportions that were counted before. So if Republicans are 58 points ahead across mail‑in ballots, in‑person voting on Election Day, it doesn’t matter. The asymmetries will grow, argues Victor Davis Hanson following the now‑projected defeat of Spencer Pratt (who came in second place behind incumbent Mayor Karen Bass on Election Day) in the Los Angeles mayoral primary almost a week after the election, on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” PROMOTIONS: 👉Go to JoinADF.com/HANSON or Text HANSON to 83848 to help support Alliance Defending Freedom’s work!HTTPS://WWW.JOINADF.COM/HANSON.COM  👉Claim your liberty offer of up to $5,000 in free metals with allegiance gold by going to HTTPS://WWW.PROTECTWITHVICTOR.COM 👉 #1 Water Filtration System.Recommended by Victor Davis Hanson: HTTPS://WWW.COVEPURE.COM/VDH WHERE TO WATCH: 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

How are George Floyd and the murder of Henry Nowak symptoms of broader tribalism?  Learn more on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Highlights: On this Saturday edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Victor and Sami Winc discuss an update on the Iran war, further developments surrounding the Henry Nowak case, and similarities to the George Floyd case. Hanson dives deep into the Henry Nowak murder trial and the subsequent public outrage over bodycam footage, which showed police handcuffing the dying teenager after accepting a false racism claim from the killer. He contrasts the case heavily with the aftermath of the George Floyd incident, arguing that Floyd's death involved career criminality and drug intoxication. Victor Davis Hanson frames the police response as a symptom of a broader tribalism and DEI inclusion standards that have infected Western institutions.

Victor Davis Hanson covers the stalled Iran negotiations on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” argues that Iran is delaying while proxies attack and that the U.S. should issue firm demands and, if unmet, use decisive military pressure to restore deterrence. Victor and Jack Fowler react to the Henry Nowak killing in England, focusing on bodycam footage showing police handcuffing the dying victim after accepting the killer’s racism claim, and Hanson frames it as “two-tier” DEI policing contrasted with the George Floyd case and aftermath. The conversation broadens to backlash against immigration and assimilation, including protests over ICE detention despite past presidents’ higher deportation totals.  They cover Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner’s sexting scandal and SS-related tattoo, and end with commentary on “Trans Period Pride” and transgender activism as a modern fad amid historical precedents.

Victor Davis Hanson interviews historian Arthur Herman about his book "Founders’ Fire: From 1776 to the Age of Trump," linking the Founding Fathers to later American business and technology founders and arguing they drive American exceptionalism through risk-taking and innovation. Herman describes a recurring cycle in which founder energy becomes institutionalized and bureaucratic until crises like the Civil War and World War II spark renewal, and he ties recent political turbulence and Trump’s rise to a similar governance crisis and a push to reinvent government around founding principles. They address attacks on wealth and “robber baron” narratives, the role of patents and the pursuit of happiness in enabling entrepreneurship, the outsider traits common among founders, and a shift from globalization to an innovation-first model amid regulation, censorship, and antitrust pressures. 👉Go to JoinADF.com/HANSON or Text HANSON to 83848 to help support Alliance Defending Freedom’s work!https://www.JoinADF.com/HANSON.com  👉For more videos like this, subscribe to The Daily Signal’s YouTube channel and enable notifications to be alerted the second a new video drops: https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1 Learn more about your ad choices.

Victor Davis Hanson comments on the rising hostility toward ICE agents after the arrest of Nicholas Matthew Scelfo for threatening an agent’s family, arguing authorities should make examples of such offenders while blue-state politics instead target citizen-journalism. Hanson portrays anti-ICE protests as an elitist class phenomenon that harms working-class communities and ties it to broader DEI-driven cultural and institutional decay, including politicized pro sports and coarsening public behavior. The episode highlights California’s AB 2624 (“Stop Nick Shirley Act”) as a retaliatory, constitutionally suspect effort to deter filming of nonprofit employees tied to illegal-immigrant services and alleged fraud exposure. Hanson also warns about tribalism, immigration-driven integration failures, UK policing distortions, and breakdowns in public order.

California’s political dysfunction, growing concerns over immigration and election integrity, and declining trust in public institutions reflect a broader struggle over accountability, governance, and national identity. Questions surrounding border security, demographic change, public safety, and political leadership continue to shape debates across the United States while voters increasingly question whether government institutions are serving the public interest. At the same time, challenges abroad—from China and Iran to Canada, Europe, and the future of Western alliances—are forcing leaders to confront shifting geopolitical realities. Economic competitiveness, technological innovation, national sovereignty, and civic trust remain central to the ability of free societies to navigate an increasingly uncertain world.

America’s political and cultural institutions are becoming increasingly centralized, ideological, and disconnected from ordinary citizens. Media organizations, universities, government agencies, and political elites continue accusing opponents of authoritarianism while expanding their own influence over public life, speech, and information. This phenomenon helps explain California’s political decline, the growing distrust in elite institutions, the use of “fascism” as a political weapon, and why more Americans feel the system is no longer accountable to the people it governs. Questions surrounding healthcare, welfare spending, lawfare, media control, and one party dominance all point back to a broader struggle over power, institutional trust, and the future direction of the country.

Former Democrat turned Trump’s director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, announced her resignation last week, citing her husband’s ongoing battle with bone cancer. While her time in office was marked by some big America First wins, like declassifications of the Russia collusion hoax documents, it was only a matter of time before Gabbard was brought into the debate brewing over the administration’s ongoing conflict with Iran, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” WHERE TO WATCH: 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Political dysfunction in California, the collapse of communist regimes, the meaning of Memorial Day, and the importance of the citizen soldier all point back to the same question: what happens when leaders become detached from the people they govern? Cuba remains impoverished decades after revolution while political elites continue to prosper. California continues to struggle with homelessness, public disorder, and governance questions while national ambitions grow among its leadership. At the same time, debates over fairness, political incentives, and institutional trust continue to reshape public life. Memorial Day serves as a reminder that America’s military tradition was built around citizen soldiers, ordinary people who returned to the communities and institutions they defended. Strong societies depend not only on economic and military strength, but on civic responsibility, accountability, and citizens who remain invested in preserving what they inherit.

Kamala Harris floats “no bad ideas” proposals like abolishing the Electoral College and packing the Supreme Court. Democrats only attack rules when out of power, argue Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  They connect these trends to broader left-wing efforts to change American institutions, describing Democrats as adolescent and grift-prone, and cite episodes of fraud and hostility toward law enforcement, including Democrats voting against a pro-police resolution. Hanson warns of rising antisemitism on the Left, faults Barack Obama and Democrat leaders for silence, and argues authoritarian impulses come from protected elites rather than Trump. The episode also condemns Stephen Colbert and David Letterman’s on-air property destruction, mocks DEI-driven “whiteness” rhetoric from an Iowa candidate, and closes with reflections on classic war films and Memorial Day programming.

A CIA whistleblower, James Erdman III, alleges that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the architect behind many of the notorious, draconian public health policies, “influenced” the U.S. intelligence community’s examination of the COVID-19 origins probe, pushing analysts away from lab-leak theories—what else did they lie about, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” WHERE TO WATCH: 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

The narrative that America is in terminal decline while China is an unstoppable juggernaut is a completely historically illiterate trope. Donald Trump has structural, economic, and geopolitical levers that Beijing simply cannot match if the administration chooses to enforce true parity. By reclaiming American energy dominance and taking a decisive stand in the Straits of Hormuz, the administration is poised to secure a booming economy just in time for the midterms.

Given that we spent over a trillion dollars in Iraq and maybe more in Afghanistan, and Joe Biden left $50 billion in equipment in the latter, the idea that you would spend less than $30 billion and have a chance to overthrow the worst government in the world—one that’s caused most of the problems we’ve had in the Middle East—is a bargain, if it works, and I think it will, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” ALSO:Victor Davis Hanson and host Sami Winc preview Donald Trump’s trip to China, arguing the U.S. holds leverage through trade, energy, and military advantages while China seeks concessions tied to Taiwan. They weigh the Iran conflict, calling the reported $29 billion cost a “bargain” if it topples the regime, and describe regional allies’ limited military commitment and the risks of prolonged negotiations.  Hanson rejects a New York Times op-ed claim that Israelis used “dog rape” against Palestinian prisoners as implausible and sourced from anti-Israel channels, contrasting it with documented Hamas atrocities.  They criticize Pope Leo XIV for honoring Iran’s Vatican ambassador, cover JD Vance’s task force uncovering major healthcare fraud and also review Rand Paul’s COVID-origin investigation implicating U.S. funding routes to Wuhan.  WHERE TO WATCH: 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

“ If you want to give reparations, how about all the people who died fighting in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and Korea? What did they get,” asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Victor Davis Hanson reacts to pro-Palestinian protests marching through Jewish neighborhoods in New York City that required 500 police, arguing leaders and campus culture have created “open season” on Jews and warning of broader social breakdown. Hanson outlines his “four horsemen” of new antisemtism—demography driven by immigration and foreign influence, DEI’s oppressor framework, institutional changes in the Democrat Party, and left-wing popular culture—while also faulting parts of the populist right.  The conversation turns to legal and illegal immigration, assimilation, and sanctuary policies, alongside Mayorkas’s belated regret over Biden’s border response and the administration’s loss of track of migrant children.  They cover reports detailing Oct. 7 sexual atrocities, San Francisco’s regulatory priorities amid disorder, Harvard’s reparations effort and fears of identifying too many descendants, and a Cambridge shooting by a felon released early, with comments on vigilantism and upcoming politics. 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.

It’s a miracle the Declaration survived 250 years. It was rolled through battlefields during the Revolutionary War, nearly destroyed when the British burned Washington in 1814, and spent decades being moved from city to city before becoming America’s most treasured national document.  Today's conversation with Michael Auslin, author of National Treasure: How the Declaration of Independence Made America," explores not only the remarkable survival story of the Declaration itself, but also the ongoing battle over what it actually means.

Rhamell Burke, a repeat criminal, attacked and later stalked two women on the New York City subway last April. Though police stopped Burke from harassing the women any further, the victims ultimately decided not to cooperate with prosecutors, with one woman telling the New York Post later, “maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail.” It was a decision she ultimately regretted after Burke, about one month later, allegedly pushed a retired school teacher onto the subway tracks, leading to the 76-year-old’s death. “ Well, I mean, it's toxic empathy, isn't it—that it gets people killed. It serves the ego of the so-called enlightened, but the consequences fall on people that can't defend themselves,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words. ALSO: Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler reflect on California’s decline, highlighting Los Angeles mayoral debate fallout as Karen Bass withdraws and Nithya Raman reverses on defunding police while Spencer Pratt gains traction.  Hanson ties LA’s disorder, wildfire failures, DEI-driven omissions, and Gavin Newsom’s long record in office to outmigration and fiscal strain, noting California’s $503B adjusted gross income loss and a projected $15–$20B deficit amid fraud and welfare concerns.  They discuss New York’s subway killing by a repeat offender, arguing “toxic empathy” and lax enforcement endanger the public. Hanson predicts communities will form local “cocoons,” rebukes AOC’s claims about billionaires and America’s founding, and assesses Trump’s China trip and leverage amid the Iran war and shifting geopolitics.

Negotiations with Iran inevitably drag on through delay and deception, warning the prolonged standoff affects U.S. economic confidence and is shaped by uncertainty about Iran’s missile and drone arsenal, while Israel faces nearer-term risk and U.S. politics increasingly blames Israel, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  Nigel Farage’s Reform Party surge reflects backlash against Labour-era crime, open borders, green energy policies, and national decline. He praises blunt attacks on Los Angeles governance over homelessness, drugs, and shuttered mental institutions. He highlights a perceived judicial double standard in the White House Correspondents Dinner shooting case, then explains Hephaestus’s myths, cult sites, craftsmanship role, and why the god is portrayed as lame.

Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Wink cover New York’s Mamdani removing a city webpage celebrating ties with Israel and broader incidents they describe as a mainstreaming of antisemitism, which Hanson attributes to DEI ideology, Middle East money and influence in universities, and Israel’s current strength.  Hanson recounts a contentious Piers Morgan appearance defending Israel and warns of rising street-level attacks on Jews.  They assess reports of a possible Trump-Iran agreement, arguing Iran is untrustworthy and urging verifiable surrender of enriched uranium and limits on missiles, while addressing War Powers Act politics.  Hanson attacks Canada’s Mark Carney and Europe’s reliance on U.S. defense, then turns to California’s “jungle primary,” proposed new taxes, the Palisades arson suspect’s left-wing posts, campus activism, and a Supreme Court redistricting ruling he says could reshape House seats and elections.

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler evaluate Tucker Carlson’s recent comments praising Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner, focusing on allegations about Platner’s past Nazi tattoo, extremist social-media statements, anti-Israel rhetoric, elite background, and questions about running for Senate while reportedly receiving 100% PTSD disability benefits. They discuss claims of election-related misconduct in Maine, including statements that non-citizens are registered to vote and the secretary of state’s refusal to provide voter files to the Justice Department.  Hanson argues Democrats pursue structural power changes when they doubt electability and compares right- and left-wing fringe figures’ treatment in elite institutions.  The episode also covers disruptions of Federalist Society events at UCLA and Stanford, university responses to identifying protesters, concerns about declining standards and “prolonged adolescence,” migration from blue to red states, and a Rhode Island federal judge ordering release of an illegal alien wanted for murder, alongside ICE arrests of criminal aliens in Minnesota.

From the Supreme Court’s latest ruling on racial gerrymandering to rising tensions with Iran and the broader cultural and political shifts happening across the country, Victor Davis Hanson argues the United States is in the middle of a major transition.  “We’re not just dealing with policy disagreements. We’re dealing with a fundamental transformation of the country.” He also points to growing instability abroad and what it means for America’s role on the world stage.  “We had operational success, but we didn’t follow through strategically. That leaves Iran weakened, but not finished.” WHERE TO WATCH: 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson and host Sami Winc cover several current issues and a historical segment. They react to the arraignment of Cole Thomas Allen, arguing his manifesto and weapons indicate intent to kill President Trump and officials, and faulting lax Secret Service performance while blaming inflammatory “Trump-as-Hitler” rhetoric for inspiring would-be attackers.  Hanson then assesses the Iran conflict, saying U.S. strikes crippled Iran’s military and a blockade is squeezing its economy, while warning Tehran may escalate with terrorism or attacks on Gulf oil infrastructure to pressure Trump before the midterms. They address James Comey’s indictment over the “86 47” post, alleging he knew its meaning. Hanson cites reports that HHS suppressed vaccine safety signals, critiques lockdowns and repeated booster pushes, and then explains Athena’s origins, epithets, and role as Athens’ patron. The episode ends on campus moral relativism, polling on political violence, tech/AI power, and comments on Al Gore.

 I don't know if it's DEI or what, but why doesn’t the U.S. Secret Service emphasize shooting ability all the time? It seemed like the old guard—the old breed in the 1960s—were pretty good about that. My premise is this: They're in a unique situation in that they have a president that has now been the target of three attempted assassinations in which shots were fired one way or the other. We've never had that in the history of the country, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc argue the Iran war has been highly asymmetrical and strategically successful, rejecting media claims about Iran’s remaining capabilities and urging sustained pressure to force concessions while oil dynamics shift, including UAE talk of leaving OPEC and the potential for prices to fall. Hanson says Middle Eastern states quietly favor the U.S. effort, while European leaders attack America for domestic political reasons despite relying on U.S. power; he portrays Germany and Britain as weakened by energy, immigration, demographic decline, and disarmament, and reads King Charles’ visit as an attempt to mend ties while avoiding Iran. They also cover China’s Belt and Road leverage via loans and labor requirements, condemn repeated Secret Service breakdowns amid multiple Trump assassination attempts, praise Trump’s pushback against Nora O’Donnell, decry California’s soaring high-speed rail costs, and debate Navy procurement toward dispersed, drone-heavy platforms.

Violent rhetoric from celebrities and Democrats helped create the climate reflected in President Donald Trump’s third would-be assassin’s manifesto, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Hanson assesses Barack Obama’s response to the most recent assassination attempts, recounts attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2003, and condemns Jimmy Kimmel’s comments about Melania Trump while defending free-speech rights and consumer boycotts of Disney. Hanson and co-host Jack Fowler cover James Comey’s second indictment, this time over the “86 47” beach post, and Dr. David Morens’, described as a top Fauci adviser, run-in with the law over alleged concealment and destruction of COVID-origin records. The conversation also touches on Virginia redistricting, U.S.–UK relations during the King’s visit and Trump’s remarks on shared Anglo-American heritage, and ends with comments from viewers and Hanson’s personal health update.

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler react to a disrupted UCLA Federalist Society event featuring DHS General Counsel James Percival, arguing elite law schools now reward activist intimidation and vulgarity while teaching critical legal theory. They connect this culture to rising tolerance for theft and political violence, citing Hasan Piker’s comments and a New Yorker writer’s shoplifting, and raise concerns about Democrats opposing limits on sex offenders working near childcare. Hanson warns that left-wing institutions and corporate donors amplify groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center, which he claims gins up threats to drive fundraising and blacklist opponents, especially after Charlottesville.

New allegations against the Southern Poverty Law Center this week raise serious questions about how donor money may have been used behind the scenes.

Iran is losing resources but trying to survive by delaying negotiations while being resupplied via rail links to China and routes across the Caspian. Tightening the blockade and targeting infrastructure if Iran escalates would hasten collapse and could lead to eventual regime change, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Also in this episode: Claims about how parts of the American left and prominent Democrats amplify Iranian propaganda and use “fascism” rhetoric while overlooking past Democratic double standards on war powers and Trump-era prosecutions and impeachments. The episode also discusses Tucker Carlson and other right-wing war critics, assesses California’s failures under Gavin Newsom, including high-speed rail, energy, fires, and water, and condemns a proposed “Nick Shirley Act” aimed at curbing investigative journalism.

The U.S. Department of Justice’s probe into the former CIA chief will hopefully lay bare John Brennan’s sins, which were years in the making. “We got to remember that this is a man that went before Congress under oath as head of the CIA, and had the CIA under his direction spying on U.S. senators. You should look at the tapes of Diane Feinstein, of all people, who was furious about it. Is the CIA tapping into our staffers’ computers? And he said, no, we wouldn't do that. That was a complete abject lie,” says Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words. The episode also touches on Hanson’s forthcoming book, The Counter Revolution; criticism of Democrats’ shift and rising antisemitism; Sen. Mark Kelly opposing a school-choice tax credit; Senate delays in the John Brennan probe; Trump’s comments about Cuba; and broader concerns about institutions, media, and political accountability. 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.

Iran’s fractured leadership can’t be trusted and President Donald Trump’s sequencing—destroying air defenses and nuclear/military infrastructure, then negotiating while imposing a costly blockade—puts time against Tehran and enables U.S. dictation rather than an Obama-style deal, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  Hanson also discusses the upcoming Trump–Xi meeting, saying U.S. drone-centric power and the unraveling of China’s proxy leverage (Iran, Venezuela, Panama, Syria) strengthen Trump’s hand. He criticizes European posturing, highlights Tim Walz’s speech in Spain, and condemns the Left’s elevation of flawed “icons.” Hanson praises Clarence Thomas’s critique of progressivism as anti-Constitutional, attacks Newsom’s governance and narrative, and closes with health updates after lung surgery complications.

CNN and former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes are of the opinion that President Donald Trump, who has chosen the sword over the pen, will get a far worse deal out of the mullahs in Iran than his predecessor, Barack Obama. What did Iran get out of its deal with Obama, you might ask? For 10 years, Iran was sanctions-free, making $500 million a day in petrochemical sales. Thanks to figures like Ben Rhodes, it was like a “bonanza for the Houthis, Hamas, the people in Syria and Iraq that are their proxies, and, of course, Hezbollah,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” What did Iran get out of Trump in his first term? Crippling sanctions and a dead Revolutionary Guard leader. What did Iran get out of Trump in his second term? A dead ayatollah, decimated offensive capabilities, and a half-destroyed government begging America to come to the negotiating table.

President Donald Trump looked at the Iranian regime’s strategy to close the Strait of Hormuz and simply flipped it upside down. The difference between the United States and Iran is that one of us can live while the strait is closed, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”   (00:00) Swalwell Scandal Preview (01:16) Iran Strait Strategy (32:10) Swalwell Allegations Fallout (39:46) Swalwell and Fang Fang Fallout (46:39) Pope Politics and Clickbait Conspiracies (58:22) Europe Israel Alliances and UK Decline So basically now where we are is Iran is quickly going broke. It's going to implode. The population is restive, and America’s in the driver's seat. “They have no money. Before the war started, there was hyperinflation. Now their currency is worth nothing, and China doesn't have the wherewithal, strategic or tactical, to force their way in.

While it was unwise for President Donald Trump to attack Pope Leo in such a public manner, the Pope himself should know better than to wade into partisan politics in a time of war, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” featuring co-host Jack Fowler. Jack and Victor also condemn the assault on TPUSA reporter Savannah Hernandez at a recent protest, urging legal consequences, and use it to argue the activist left claims moral exemption while enabling violence. Victor reviews analysis that a U.S. blockade could rapidly cripple Iran’s oil revenue, limit storage capacity, and deepen internal regime weakness, criticizing media pessimism and disputing claims that China will “win” via renewables. The episode also notes NATO allies’ declining readiness, UN backing of Iran for a key council role, and Al Sharpton’s call for black Americans to avoid celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.

CaliforniaCalifornia’s problems didn’t happen overnight—they’re the result of decades of policy choices that prioritized ideology over infrastructure, energy, and economic reality. Victor Davis Hanson argues the state abandoned its fundamentals, while Elaine Culotti points to runaway bureaucracy, middlemen siphoning public funds, and mandates that burden working families. They challenge the sustainability of a system dependent on a shrinking tax base and warn that overregulation is driving businesses and residents out. The discussion centers on restoring accountability, rebuilding core systems, and rethinking policies that many believe are pushing California toward long-term decline.

If you take anything away from Rep. Eric Swalwell’s resignation, it should be the following: Whether a democratic politician actually abused, sexually harassed, sexually assaulted someone is not of importance to the Democratic hierarchy. What's important is the status of that person's political viability, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler discuss Rep. Eric Swalwell dropping out of California’s governor race amid multiple sexual misconduct allegations, arguing Democrat leaders act based on political viability and comparing reactions to Tara Reade’s allegation against Joe Biden versus E. Jean Carroll’s case against Donald Trump. They analyze Trump’s criticism of Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones over opposition to strikes on Iran, with Hanson describing the campaign as a deterrent air effort aimed at the regime rather than Iran’s people.  The episode also covers reports about U.S. clearing the Strait of Hormuz, prospects for ending the Russia-Ukraine war, concerns over European allies’ dependence on U.S. defense, the Byron Noem controversy as a national-security vetting failure, and anger over criminal justice outcomes including an early release in Indiana and a New York case involving a police officer convicted of manslaughter.

The reaction to President Trump’s Iran strategy has reached peak absurdity—critics can’t decide if he’s too aggressive or not aggressive enough. While the media spins, the reality on the ground tells a very different story about leverage, restraint, and results.

Debate over Trump’s rhetoric on Iran has sparked fresh accusations of “war crimes” from critics. But a look at history—from World War II through Iraq and Libya—shows U.S. presidents in both parties have long targeted dual-use infrastructure in wartime. The real question isn’t just language, but how modern narratives square with longstanding military precedent. It’s a reminder that context matters when judging strategy and intent.

Victor Davis Hanson and host Jack Fowler discuss President Trump’s profane Easter warning to Iran and frame it as a “Nixon madman” bad-cop/good-cop strategy involving JD Vance, while contrasting Trump’s decisive military rescue efforts with past administrations’ failures. They examine the California high-speed rail project as a costly “train to nowhere,” citing billions spent without laying track, eminent domain damage to farmland, and doubts about long-term profitability, alongside broader claims of massive fraud in California programs.  The episode also covers reports of China-linked unauthorized bio labs in Nevada and California, arguing U.S. security and immigration enforcement are dangerously lax. They discuss paid, organized protest operations, student-loan nonpayment incentives, and Trump’s executive order to verify citizenship and strengthen federal election integrity, including voter rolls and mail-ballot safeguards.

Victor Davis Hanson and host Jack Fowler discuss why several NATO allies—especially France—restricted the United States from using bases and airspace during operations aimed at Iran, arguing Europe benefits from U.S. security while pursuing divergent domestic and foreign-policy agendas. Hanson urges the Trump administration to frame NATO burden-sharing and reciprocity in “sorrowful” terms, consider tighter bilateral ties with supportive allies, and better explain the difficulty and aims of the Iran campaign, including deterrence and possible conditions for regime change while clarifying U.S.-Israel alignment. They also address tensions with Canada over defense spending and policies, the scale of alleged fraud in California programs highlighted by City Journal reporting, and Democrats’ attempts to rebrand figures like Pete Buttigieg to win back white working-class voters.

Is this America’s fight—or another case of allies sitting on the sidelines? Victor Davis Hanson breaks down President Trump’s Iran address, exposing the growing divide between U.S. leadership and Europe’s reluctance to act. From Reagan’s unwavering support of allies to today’s NATO double standards, the contrast couldn’t be clearer. Plus, Hanson dives into the Supreme Court’s looming birthright citizenship case—questioning whether the 14th Amendment is being stretched far beyond its original intent and what that could mean for America’s future.

Last week, Israel denied access to Bethlehem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre, one of the holiest sites in the Christian faith, on Palm Sunday, citing security concerns amid the conflict with Iran. Many expressed outrage. Nearly all ignored the risk, Victor Davis Hanson argued on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Other topics include: • “No Kings” protests that attack elected presidents such as Donald Trump while defending unelected bureaucrats, against the backdrop of confrontations with largely nonwhite ICE agents by affluent white liberals. • Anti-Christian legal actions in Canada and Finland. • A Stanford student’s testimony about alleged Chinese Communist Party transnational repression, along with broader ties between China and U.S. college campuses. 👉 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2iOoN0xoOoSNvDFlpLLYGY?si=5a9f369acc874c6e 👉 Apple Podcast:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/victor-davis-hanson-in-his-own-words/id1566731706 👉 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@victordavishanson7273?sub_confirmation=1 👉 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/VictorDavisHansonInHisOwnWords?e9s=src_v1_sa%2Csrc_v1_sa_o   👉 Victor’s website: https://victorhanson.com  (00:00) Holy Land Mass Controversy (13:47) No Kings Protest Breakdown (29:19) Anti Christian Laws And China Stalking (44:40) Reciprocity With China (55:29) Academia And Elite Hypocrisy (01:02:54) Fraud Crackdowns And Final Reflections 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.

President Donald Trump has Democrats between a rock and a hard place.   The only way they can win popular support in their ongoing feud with Republicans over funding for the Department of Homeland Security is to protest ICE. That means going where ICE is: The airports.   Picture this: Your run of the mill leftwing protester screaming into a microphone, making an already unpleasant flight experience worse while immigration agents smile and hand out water to passengers waiting in line.These are the cards Democrats have been delt.   Victor Davis Hanson, and his co-host Sami Winc, also discuss how/why elected Democrat leaders embrace illegal aliens over their own citizens, as well as the delicate balancing act Trump needs to play if he’s to reopen the Straits of Hormuz on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  PROMOTIONS: 👉America is worth preserving.

Now, however, he has betrayed President Trump, the man who helped him have a political career as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center after two failed congressional campaigns, explains Victor Davis Hanson on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “He [Kent] wrote and said not only did he feel that the MAGA movement… was not being followed, but it was following Israel… So he bought right into ‘the Jews did it.’ And at that moment, a whole new world opened up for him. And he thinks that's quite a big world on the Right. It isn’t.” (00:00) Joe Kent Controversy (01:00) Show Intro and Health Update (08:30) Trumpism Iran Debate (40:59) Musk and TSA Standoff (42:30) Tax Wars and Culture Flashpoints (01:02:01)  Caesar Chavez and Closing Thoughts PROMOTIONS: 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.

In this Friday news roundup, Victor Davis Hanson argues Iran is unlikely to strike the U.S. homeland with drones but could use proxies or influenced naturalized citizens, while discussing Trump’s potential escalation options in the region and Europe’s reluctance to help despite benefiting from reduced Iranian power. The discussion then centers on Washington’s fight over a DHS-related shutdown: Hanson claims Democrats are using DHS as a pretext while aiming to damage the economy by disrupting airport security and broader DHS operations, forcing Trump to negotiate, and avoiding any discussion of ICE because parts of the party oppose deportations.  He also criticizes Democrat leaders for lacking a governing agenda beyond opposition to Trump and notes debates over voter ID legislation and threats of future prosecutions from figures like Susan Rice.

Jack Fowler and Victor Davis Hanson discuss Joe Kent’s recent resignation over opposition to military action against Iran. Hanson argues Iran’s long record of attacks and proxy warfare makes stopping now dangerous. Hanson reacts to an Al Jazeera column claiming the U.S.-Israel strategy is systematically degrading Iran’s key assets, suggesting Gulf states back the campaign out of fear Iran will hit their economies.  He then examines an NBC News poll showing Israel’s standing has fallen sharply among Democrats and warns Jewish national candidates face a hostile party climate. Hanson also links corporate flight from blue states to high taxes and governance failures, criticizes Canada’s policies, and argues weak assimilation and DEI incentives fuel anti-Americanism and criminal impunity among some immigrants and activists.

The legacy media continues to downplay recent bombing attempts and other violent incidents tied to illegal immigrants, arguing “Islamophobia” is overstated while antisemitism rises.Victor Davis Hanson, co-host of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” criticizes the 1965 immigration shift toward family-based entry, says the Left excuses illegality and anti-Americanism, and connects these trends to tribal politics.  Victor and Jack mock a proposed “supergroup” of radical big-city Democrat mayors (New York, Chicago, Boston, Oakland, Seattle, Los Angeles) amid crime, taxes, and dysfunction. Victors condemns the UK replacing Churchill on currency, defends Churchill’s wartime leadership, comments on Carrie Prejean Boller’s anti-Zionism controversy, and praises Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s “Restoring the West” initiative. “There's an impression that if you're an immigrant and you come from a hostile country, that you will come over here and we will ask nothing of you. We won't even ask you to be legal, and we won't ask you to obey our laws. “And if you act like a victim or you use violence against the state, there will be people in the United States on the left that either will contextualize or excuse your criminality, or if you're not a criminal, but you're just simply anti-American, they will laud it and think you're a member of the DEI greater brotherhood.  “Yeah.

Iran’s “chaos strategy” consists of threatening the Strait of Hormuz and striking regional targets, weighing U.S. and Israeli escalation options amid Donald Trump’s political constraints before the midterms and concerns over oil markets, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” The episode also addresses controversy over a girls’ school allegedly struck near a military base, noting uncertainty over responsibility and the likelihood of collateral damage from dispersed Iranian military sites. Hanson then turns to Cuba as a sophisticated exporter of revolutionary influence and suggests pressure without invasion. He analyzes Trump’s use of Rubio versus Vance as “good cop” dynamics and criticizes California efforts to revive racial preferences, gerrymandering, and a high school transgender track controversy. 👉America is worth preserving.

University of Texas at Austin professor and moral philosopher Prof. J. Budziszewski discusses his new book, “The Pandemic of Lunacy: How to Think Clearly When Everyone Around You Seems Crazy,” which examines 30 modern delusions and why they spread on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” ft. guest host Jack Fowler. He argues today’s irrationality is motivated, often contains a grain of truth, and metastasizes as one false premise leads to others, with social media acting as a force multiplier. The conversation covers relativism, abortion premises leading to infanticide arguments, radical individualism sliding toward authoritarianism, and debates over sex differences and the claim that men can be women. 👉America is worth preserving.

Many Americans are wary of U.S. boots on the ground in the Middle East after the Afghanistan and Iraq wars that became "endless." President Trump’s comment about possible “boots on the ground” is likely just “Art of the Deal” rhetoric, explains Victor Davis Hanson in today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  “I think his point was that you’re never going to tell the enemy what you’re going to do.” 👉America is worth preserving.

China has created “the operating system for the globalized economy,” putting other countries at its mercy. Chris O’Dea, an adjunct fellow at the Hudson Institute, explains how China has built strategic influence through commercial shipping networks, ports, and infrastructure, potentially giving it a significant geopolitical boost over both the U.S. and the entire global economy. “China really has embargo power, and not just to one country or one product line, but they have the ability to say OK to an entire shipping line… They have to play ball with China because they need to get to China and Chinese ports.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Pennsylvania is “tied to the American story.” It’s the state that gave power to both the first and second industrial revolutions, saved the union at Gettysburg, and hosted the Constitutional convention. In this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” guest host Jack Fowler speaks with Andrew Lewis, Iraq war veteran and president of the Commonwealth Foundation, about why Pennsylvania matters nationally and how state-based think tanks turn free-market ideas into laws. Lewis highlights Pennsylvania’s historic role, its position atop the Marcellus and Utica Shale, and the opportunities from being a major electricity exporter, while warning that renewable mandates can threaten grid reliability and affordability, citing New York’s higher costs and Spain’s blackout. He critiques Governor Josh Shapiro’s “Lightning” plan to raise renewable requirements and discusses Commonwealth’s policy focus areas, including energy, taxes and spending, regulatory reform, and union reform.  We hope you enjoy! 👉America is worth preserving.

In the early hours of Saturday, Feb. 28, the United States, at the direction of President Donald Trump, and in close coordination with Israeli allies, initiated Operation Epic Fury against the Iranian regime. Within 24 hours, more than 1,000 sites were hit and the supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, was dead following an Israeli strike in Tehran, the capital.

Donald Trump’s first State of the Union speech of his second term was long as it was a ‘good slice of Americana,’ argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” with Sami Winc. The images of Democrats sinking into their chairs as Trump praised the USA Men’s Hockey Team and memorialized the horrific murder to Iryna Zarutska further showed the nation that the party of FDR and Clinton is now occupied by such “a sad group of people” with contorted faces. 👉America is worth preserving.

Is your white privilege giving you anxiety? Obviously, no. But for America’s mental health professionals, the answer is increasingly becoming “yes.” “Activist therapists,” Andrew Hartz, Ph.D., founder, president, and executive director of the Open Therapy Institute, are products of a culture that puts race at the center of nearly therapy sessions, and liken whiteness to a "parasitic condition.”Dr. Hartz joins today’s “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” (alas, no Victor) to discuss the sharp politicization of clinical psychology training and the implications it’s having on the wellbeing of everyday Americans. 👉America is worth preserving.

Education is “inherently a historical project” because it’s the generational passing down of culture.  This “transmission of culture,” or classical liberal education, has been eroded over the past century, however, explains Andrew Zwerneman, president of Cana Academy, when he joined Jack Fowler on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “The first major assault came with the progressivist movement which increasingly divorced education from religion and increasingly made education a matter of utility. So students weren’t learning what they had inherited. They were learning for the immediate problem before them.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Sports is the “public arena of the difference of the sexes,” so it’s crucial “to assert biological reality,” especially in an era where biological men have been allowed to compete in women’s sports.   With women comprising “50% of the population,” celebrating “what women are capable of, independent of men,” is important, explains Kim Jones, co-founder of the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, when she joined Jack Fowler on today’s episode of “Victor Davis: In His Own Words.” “We do not have to be afraid to call men or to point out where something is wrong or where women’s rights are impacted. It’s a 90–10 issue. The small number on the other side are very loud, but as soon as we shed that fear and stand on the truth, the culture shifts.” 👉Go to My Patriot Supply to see exclusive offers!

The “Glib Barristia” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s, D-N.Y., ignorance of world affairs was one full display for the world to see at the Munich Security Conference last week.

Truckers went from being revered in pop culture as the archetype of the “last American cowboy” in the 1970s and ’80s to teetering on the edge of irrelevance today. Why has the perception of the trucking industry by the American public “gone completely down the toilet”? There are many reasons the rugged individualists of yesteryear have fallen from glory, but chief among them may be staring us right in the face: cheap foreign labor, explains Gord Magill, author of the forthcoming “End of the Road: Inside the War on Truckers,” on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”👉Tap water in the United States often contains a variety of harmful contaminants that pose significant health risks.

Without a free market, the U.S. would not have “liberty,” “prosperity,” or “economic growth.”   Young religious people who are not on the left used to support free markets “by default,” but that’s no longer the case, explains Mark Tooley, president of the Institute on Religion and Democracy. He joined Jack Fowler on this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” to discuss the issue. “Several years ago, I led a book study for some of our interns. … We read ‘The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism’ by Michael Novak, a wonderful book … explaining the spirituality and morality of capitalism. And they were not persuaded. … So again, even with Christian young people, Catholic or Protestant, you have to explain what free markets are and what the moral basis is for them.” 👉America is worth preserving.

There might not be “a whole [Epstein] list” like U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have said.   Victor Davis Hanson returns for another episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” where he explains why he thinks Jeffrey Epstein “was too clever” to ever leave behind “a notebook” or “incriminating tapes with sex.”   “I don’t think he had anything. And I don’t think that [Donald] Trump will pardon [Ghislaine] Maxwell. I think she’s going to sit there [prison] the rest of her life.”   Additionally, Hanson weighs in on the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, the missing 84-year-old mother of NBC host Savannah Guthrie, as well as the Winter Olympics taking place in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy. 👉America is worth preserving.

Mass migration isn’t just a policy debate; it’s a power struggle with global stakes.Bestselling investigative journalist Peter Schweizer, author of “The Invisible Coup,” lays out his thesis that mass migration isn’t just a humanitarian or economic issue, but also a strategic tool foreign powers use to reshape American politics.“It’s not a network in the sense that they are working together. It’s a confluence of interests. Mexico, China, the Muslim Brotherhood—they all have different goals, but they share a common goal: They want to diminish the United States and extend their interests.”   👉America is worth preserving.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance this past Sunday has the country split on whether or not it presented a message of unity or division. And the decision to hand him the stage traces back to an unexpected source: a close ally of Barack Obama. That’s right. Few fans realize that rapper Jay-Z has been quietly steering the Super Bowl’s halftime lineup for the past several years. According to Victor Davis Hanson, one thing is certain: when Jay-Z is in charge, viewers can expect “an elaborate set with shooting lights and all kinds of crazy stuff”—a spectacle he calls a “crutch for the lack of talent.”   Victor Davis Hanson returns for another episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” where he breaks down Puerto Rican rapper and singer Bad Bunny’s controversial halftime performance and what it really says about the direction of America’s biggest stage. “This is a Neronian Roman circus… I see folk singers that used to come there [the Super Bowl], I saw country western [singers.] I had no problem with any of them. Leftwing, rightwing, I enjoyed it. But when you put Jay-Z in charge of the halftime show… we know what it is now.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Young men need to exercise “agency” in their own lives. A recent survey done on young men and their problems (and prospects) revealed young men who participate in multiple social activities and groups are problem solvers. Alex Tarascio, a pollster at Cygnal, a political polling firm, explains that when these young men “talk about their biggest problems, the problems they identify are problems that they can change.” “If you say, ‘Paying my bills,’ that’s a hard problem, [but] that’s not a problem that you can change super easily. If your problem is romantic relationships, that problem is entirely on you.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Traditionally, Minnesotans, by virtue of their Scandinavian heritage, are known for being well-mannered and having good governance. However, over the past few months, the idyllic poster boy for “Midwest nice” has been completely upended following a string of high-profile taxpayer-dollar fraud controversies, raids against peaceful church services and violent altercations between leftist protesters and federal immigration officials. Daily Signal senior editor Tyler O’Neil joins today’s podcast to walk through his own original investigative reporting behind the anti-ICE protest from within Cities Church in St. Paul, Minn., last week and the tone-deaf responses from local Democratic officials. “Really, one of the most shocking things that I was able to report was that Gov. Walz’s administration ordered an investigative unit inside one of these huge departments not to investigate criminal fraud. And now they were telling me their statement is, ‘Oh yeah, well that was just … we didn’t want them doing criminal stuff. “‘We still wanted them investigating.’ But all the whistleblowers have been saying from the beginning that they’re trying to hide this fraud. Meanwhile, we also see this neo-Confederate push essentially to nullify federal immigration law. And it’s not just, you know, Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey who are out there saying, you know, ‘We don’t want to follow these laws in Minnesota and ICE. “‘You can leave, go pound sand.’ I know Frey used even more colorful language than that. But they’re pitting themselves against the federal government and against the enforcement of immigration law while their shock troops are on the ground, willing to engage anyone. 👉America is worth preserving.

In 2008, California voters approved Proposition 1A, giving the green light to start planning a high-speed railway connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles, which would be built by 2020 and cost around $35 billion. Well, it’s 2026 and the Golden State’s “Futureland-esque” project is woefully over schedule and budget, now projected to cost around $135 billion. Lee Ohanian, a Hoover Institution senior fellow, joins Jack Fowler on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” to discuss California’s Tomorrowland disaster and more: “It was Disney’s Futureland. It was trains that would travel as fast as 220 mph. They would move people from L.A. to San Francisco in two hours, 40 minutes. L.A. to San Francisco was supposed to have been finished about five years ago, and as you noted, cost $35 billion. The price tag could be as high as $135 billion today. “Now the project is woefully over budget—woefully behind schedule. And you know, Jack, in 2019, when Gov. Gavin Newsom gave his inaugural speech right after he was elected, he noted the problems that were happening with high-speed rail at that time. And he said in a very interesting way, ‘We don't have the money to go from San Francisco to Los Angeles.’ “And the project has been subject to not enough oversight and not enough accountability, and he was absolutely correct about that.” 👉America is worth preserving.

All of Thomas Sowell’s “considerable learning” is front and center in his 2007 book A Conflict of Visions: Ideological Origins of Political Struggles. Sowell, a Marxist-turned, unofficial 20th-century spokesman for capitalism, theorizes that humans are inclined to adopt one of two worldviews — the “constrained” or the “unconstrained” vision — explains Daniel J. Mahoney, a professor emeritus at Assumption University and a senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, on today’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words. 👉America is worth preserving.

Did former President Barack Obama prioritize a scheme to increase and use immigration to achieve political goals? Were Obama’s cronies actually the ones in the driver’s seat during the ramp-up of the Biden administration’s open-borders policies, asks Jack Fowler on this special edition of “Victor Davis Hanson (Minus Victor): In His Own Words” with Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies. Answer: “What happened is that Biden basically just let the activist groups on immigration run immigration policy. And since he wasn’t really president — in other words, he was a very weak executive — they just sort of, you know, ran with it and caused all the problems because … nobody was keeping control and making sure things stayed on track because there was nobody in charge of anything.” 👉Claim your liberty offer of up to $5,000 in free metals with allegiance gold by going to  https://www.ProtectWithVictor.com 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

**This episode was recorded before Victor Davis Hanson's December 30 medical operation** In a new March Madness-style series that will pair off “16 terrible issues” against each other, Hanson will act as the judge, ruling on the greatest existential threat to the United States. In the first episode, Hanson decides whether the following are the biggest issues facing the United States in 2026: China vs. rogue nukes Fertility free fall vs. gain-of-function bioweapon pandemic Massive debt vs. destruction of the nuclear family Growth and spread of radical Islam vs. socialist/Democratic government “I wish people listening would understand that the problem is not Donald Trump. The problem is that there are major forces in the world, Russia, but especially China and radical Islam, that want to destroy the United States. It's just that simple. And to the degree that we let down our guard or we lose deterrence, they'll try. And so it's very important that we be united and keep up.” 👉 The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: http://dailysignal.com/donate 👉Use code VICTOR at PureHealth checkout for 35% off your order: https://www.purehealthresearch.com 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest editions of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words” by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Every time a tragic shooting happens, the Left “always says we need new gun control.” That kind of reaction, however, is a “moral out” to avoid addressing the real problem.   The issue with the recent shooting in Australia “was not guns,” but rather “letting people into the country whose culture is antithetical to the tradition and norms of that society,” explains Hanson during today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”   “Instead of giving them a crash course in civic education, assimilation, integration, culturation, they give them the opposite message: You qualify for DEI. Here’s where you get your support. Here’s your entitlements, and here’s the script that you use to attack conservatives and join us. And that leads to this stuff. That leads to shooting people at the Holocaust Museum. That leads to pushing Jews on campus. That’s what it does.” 👉 The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: http://dailysignal.com/donate 👉Young Americans are losing the values that built this nation.

On this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc dissect the effort to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Biden administration’s effort to drum white conservative males out of the service. Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Mich., announced Wednesday his intention to file articles of impeachment against Hegseth, for “Murder and Conspiracy to Murder and Recklessness and Unlawful Mishandling of Classified Information.” The first charge is in connection with a Sept. 2 military strike on a boat believed to be carrying drugs to the U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and, of course, President Donald Trump have also faced impeachment calls this week from House Democrats.  👉 The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: http://dailysignal.com/donate 👉You know college is broken.

Following ongoing U.S. military operations in the Caribbean, President Donald Trump called his Colombian counterpart, Gustavo Petro, “an illegal drug leader,” on Truth Social. He continued, saying that Petro is “strongly encouraging the massive production of drugs, in big and small fields, all over Colombia. It has become the biggest business in Colombia, by far, and Petro does nothing to stop it, despite large-scale payments and subsidies from the U.S. ... AS OF TODAY, THESE PAYMENTS, OR ANY OTHER FORM OF PAYMENT, OR SUBSIDIES, WILL NO LONGER BE MADE TO COLOMBIA.” Petro countered, referring to the president as a “king.” President Petro: “You really do think that Donald Trump came to power and retained power without a free election? And you, right across the border, you have somebody who canceled our election by all consensus, lost the last Venezuelan election. Why don't you direct your animus toward him if you're worried about kings?” replies Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
