Victor Davis Hanson // National Review The three-year-long effort to abort the Trump presidency — now culminating with a manipulated impeachment effort — has warped U.S. foreign policy toward Russia.

Victor Davis Hanson // National Review Donald Trump promised to shake up U.S. foreign policy. He has certainly done that from the Middle East to Asia.

Victor Davis Hanson // American Greatness Today’s university students want to “wake” the nation to problems that they and their professors have identified as threatening our very existence.
