The latest supposed Chinese existential threat is not to be assessed by how fast and impressively the nation rose from its own prior weakness, poverty, and irrelevance. What matters instead is to what degree its innate system ensures that such ascendance will be permanently continued and whether its political system, food and fuel capacity, military, and scientific community are on par with those of America’s. And so far, in these regards, China, like all the other rivals of the last hundred years, has not come close. victorhanson.com/america-the-re…

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.” youtu.be/FZtdY_JdrPs?si…

So why and how did millions of Americans begin to express hatred for Israel and, albeit more subtly, the Jews who support it? There are four converging fronts in this perfect storm: victorhanson.com/the-four-horse…

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. youtu.be/qGRv-d3ihq0?si…

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. youtu.be/UY2QtrByCU4?si…

Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words: Victor and Sami 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. youtu.be/h1d9-ZDXFWI?si…

The Jacobin Democrats of today are systematically destroying the legacy of the Democratic Party. And why not? Their model is not the American Founding, but the radical mandated equality—and violence—of the French Revolution. victorhanson.com/the-democratic…

Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words: Victor and @jackfowler 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. youtu.be/MaY7hJEpGn8?si…

Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words: 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. youtu.be/NaFpUd5nuPY?si…

On today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” Victor 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. youtu.be/JDQn-3Zzt5c?si…

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.” youtu.be/wSUZIe3NfFY?si…

The hardcore left-wing establishment believes this sort of Hitler/Trump rhetoric, combined with the normalization of street violence, generates ever more protests, fuels anti-ICE fury, unites Congressional Democrats, and—most importantly—drives down Trump poll numbers. In their view, it is a lot more effective than merely outlining an alternative agenda. So expect far more, not less, of this left-wing violent madness to come. victorhanson.com/from-one-assas…

Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words: Victor and @jackfowler 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. youtu.be/0dsBFWGFJQA?si…

"A Broadside for the Nation", assembled by ACTA’s National Commission on American History and Civic Education, makes the case for higher ed to restore a required course in US history and government in order to graduate - as well as how to make this vision a reality.

🚨NYC SOCIALIST GRIFTER ZOHRAN MAMDANI’S FAMILY JUST GOT CAUGHT IN A MASSIVE “FREE GROCERY STORE” SCAM RAKING IN MILLIONS WHILE PRETENDING TO HELP THE POOR! Follow @UnmaskTheSys His brother Eli Mohammed Mamdani buys condemned, falling-apart buildings from the city for literal pennies on the dollar… then immediately flips them right back to the city at full market value for the “free grocery” program. Then they hire their cousin Rufus Theodore Mamdani’s construction company to “fix them up” — pocketing as much as $5 MILLION PER STORE for the entire Mamdani crime family. That’s how communism works, folks — the elites preach “equity” while their own bloodline gets filthy rich off taxpayer-funded scams. The watchdog group just blew the whole rotten operation wide open. Share this everywhere before they try to bury it! Follow @mcafeenew for more drops.

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.” youtu.be/yGazwG6I7dc?si…

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. youtu.be/4S-CF1Rqrjg?si…
