Does Iran Realize Its Own Growing Danger?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Iran understandably believes it is riding quite high. It is flush with cash. It hints it almost has the bomb—and might use it soon. The Iranians are bragging about their new tyrannical allies like Russia and China. Iran boasts of now being the self-proclaimed leader of jihad on behalf of […]
VDH UltraThe Aberrant American Appeasement of Theocratic Iran
Victor Davis Hanson The Obama–Biden pathological appeasement of Iran is shameful. Barack Obama cooked up the “Iran deal” design to ensure the development of an Iranian bomb—although not on his watch. Every aspect of that deal favored Iran, and then in quite an unconstitutional fashion he ignored the Senate and reclassified the treaty as an […]
The Origins of War in Gaza
Listen in as Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler talk about Biden’s cameos on Israel, protestors in the streets and hypocrisy of Hamas supporters in our elite universities, the lying administration, the clear hatred of Jews and scenes from Gaza.
VDH UltraWoke Hits the Wall. Part Four
Victor Davis Hanson Another tenet of woke was a veritable war on gas and oil. Note the same serial ironic theme: if Biden inherited a calm border, he had the luxury or rather the margin of error to demagogue it, destroy it, and not be swamped by illegals—for a while. It was also easy to […]
Our Post-Hamas Wreckage
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness As Hamas goes, so with it go many of the following related Western pretensions. The Passions of 9/11, Redux It has been 22 years since we saw crowds throughout the Middle East celebrating the murder of 3,000 civilians—and since newspapers had daily “idiot watch” notices of American intellectuals defending radical […]

VDH UltraWoke Hits the Wall. Part Three
Victor Davis Hanson The entire BLM movement is now in shambles, due not just to its racist tropes, but the sheer corruption and grift of the entire enterprise of mostly middle-class black activists using the threat of riot and violence of the poor underclass as leverage to enrich themselves. The Center for Antiracist Research at […]
The Left’s Manufactured Reality
In this episode, Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler analyze Chicago’s residents’ outcry against illegal immigrants, transgendered arguments, FBI’s leaders not so far from the rank-and-file, distortion of truth called “conspiracy theories,” and thoughts on funding the war in Ukraine and the new rules of proxy wars.
Hamas and Amoral Clarity
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness One unexpected blowback from the medieval Hamas’s barbaric murdering of hundreds of Israeli civilians is the revelation of current global amorality. More than 20 Harvard university identity politics groups pledged their support to the Hamas murderers—to the utter silence for days of Harvard President Claudine Gay. Americans knew higher education […]
VDH UltraWoke Hits the Wall. Part Two
Victor Davis Hanson Wokeism also sought to defund the police, end cash bail, and empty the jails. George Soros and others poured millions into electing nihilist city and state prosecutors who simply did not enforce the law and let criminals out, often just hours after committing heinous crimes. Did the Left believe that criminals would […]
VDH UltraWoke Hits the Wall. Part One
Victor Davis Hanson The hard-left revolution is running out of gas. We can tell that because the inherent anti-civilizational nature of wokism is beginning to devour the very architects of its creation. The Biden administration entered office in 2021 with a secure border—after four years of constant deep-state and left-wing efforts to stop the Trump […]
Federal Chaos and the Absurd Left Agenda
Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler for a discussion of the incoherence of Matt Gaetz’s actions, building a wall at the border now, Tucker Carlson’s reach from his new home at X, and more evidence that the Left’s agenda is indefensible.

Reflections on Israel’s New Existential War
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness There have been plenty of terrorist attacks on Israel. A dozen or so conventional wars of various magnitude have been waged against the Jewish state. And more often there have been mixtures of both. Yet never have hundreds of gangs of black-clad murderers carefully planned to swarm Israel, with an […]

VDH UltraAmerican Pravda. Part Four
Victor Davis Hanson Call all this mere “political correctness” or “woke” nonsense. But these disconnects are in essence Maoism. They are dangerous lies that are promulgated by elites to further their own selfish agendas at the expense of the general public, who is to be shamed and ostracized as counterrevolutionaries. Note too that none of […]
Our Establishment’s Alternate Realities
One common denominator that explains why previously successful societies implode is their descent into fantasies. A collective denial prevents even discussion of existential threats and their solutions. Something like that is happening in the United States. Eight million illegal immigrants have entered the United States by the deliberate erasure of the southern border. Apparently, the […]
The Left Are the Great Destroyers of Civilization
In this episode, Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler discuss the balance sheet of imperialism, the Russian way of war, Polish minister remarks on the West, and why a teacher is rehired after wielding a machete against a reporter.
VDH UltraAmerican Pravda. Part Three
Victor Davis Hanson There is a host of other lies that utopian progressives have constructed as orthodox “truths” in order to sabotage reality and ensure a particular code of behavior and thought. By late 2021 most Americans had concluded that the Wuhan virology lab was the source of the Covid virus. They were growing concerned […]
