We Are Well Beyond Hypocrisy
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness The abject narcissism of the insular Left is startling. They apparently believe the American public is amnesiac enough to forget what leftists once did, now that they’re doing the utter opposite. And they assume we are to discount their hypocrisy and self-absorption simply because they self-identify as erudite and moral […]

VDH UltraHumpty-Dumpty America, or How Did We Suddenly Fall Apart? Part One: The Symptoms
Victor Davis Hanson Americans feel like they awoke one morning in 2023 trapped inside a Kafka novel.

We ourselves, believing that we are still “normal” and wedded to protecting and carrying on the American experiment, are somehow […]
VDH and Steven Quay
Dr. Steven Quay discusses with Victor Davis Hanson the effect of the lockdowns, the real nature of mRNA vaccines, and the controversies over the origins of covid in the Wuhan lab.
Civilization Versus the New Nihilists
Nihilism is the religion of the Left. Anarchy is now at the core of the new Democratic Party. If the Left wished radically to alter the demography of the U.S., it could have expanded legal immigration through legislation or the courts. Instead, it simply erased the border and dynamited federal immigration law. By fiat, nihilists […]

VDH UltraThe Three Blind Mice of the University
Victor Davis Hanson I wrote on X about the three blind mice college presidents (Gay of Harvard, Kornbluth of MIT, and Magill of University of Pennsylvania).

An introductory note and warning: […]
VDH UltraThe Shame of Hamas
Victor Davis Hanson Almost daily, western news agencies quote “15,000 civilian deaths” caused by the Israel Defense Forces. They once at least used to qualify “according to Hamas authorities.” Now they don’t even do that much, but employ “Palestinian authorities,” as a euphemism for Hamas liars. How does Hamas know the roughly exact number of […]

Listen to Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler as they discuss difficult air travel, McCarthy’s new critique of the GOP, the Republican ticket must unify, Hunter’s indictment, and university presidents too blind to see real harassment.
Not ‘Trump the Dictator’ Again
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness It is “Trump Will Destroy Democracy” season again. And predictably the Left has gone hysterical, after experiencing a trifecta of frightening 2024 news. One, current polls in the primaries and in a general election for now show that Trump would win. Meanwhile, Joe Biden’s popularity dives below 40 percent. His policies […]
Lies, Debates, and Equivocates
Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Sami Winc to examine the 4th GOP debate, the new, old cries and lies of Trump’s authoritarianism, university presidents who dither on policy against genocide speak, and the government’s lies and State Department’s censorship.
VDH UltraDictator Trump?
The leftwing media is shrieking about the impending “end of democracy” given the looming “Trump dictatorship” they fear.

Let’s examine areas where dictatorial behavior might have appeared to confirm their charges and predictions: 1) Did Trump ever […]

How Were the Universities Lost?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness After October 7, the public was shocked at what they saw and heard on America’s campuses. Americans knew previously they were intolerant, leftwing, and increasingly non-meritocratic.

VDH UltraThe Left Got What It Wanted—And?
Victor Davis Hanson The Left cannot govern, but its unpopularity often proves no bar to its acquisition and retention of power. Due to the media collusion/disinformation melodramas, COVID-19, the lockdowns, the ensuing George Floyd riots, Trump Derangement Syndrome, and vast change in most states’ balloting laws, the Left came into power in 2021 and controlled […]
VDH UltraThe Innocent Gazan Civilian?
Victor Davis Hanson A common theme in writing about the Middle East is the separation between Hamas and the population of Gaza. Polls are quoted that show prior to October 7 Hamas was increasingly unpopular, allegedly because it was corrupt and had hijacked billions of dollars of foreign and international aid to divert it to […]

Weimar America
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Something eerie, something creepy, is happening in the world—and now in America as well. The dark mood is brought on by elite universities, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion industry, and massive immigration from illiberal nations and anti-Enlightenment societies. At Hillcrest High School in Queens, New York, hundreds of students rioted […]
