What Now, Ukraine?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness It was supposed to be a clear-cut, unambiguous invasion.

VDH UltraNeutroning America, Part Two
Victor Davis HansonHistorian’s Corner In these three dark years, the military, especially the retired generals and admirals, soon were politicized as well.

VDH UltraNeutroning America, Part One
Victor Davis HansonHistorian’s Corner One way of looking at America since January 2020 is to imagine that we were hit by some sort of self-created neutron bomb: the infrastructure remains, but the people as we knew them are gone. The COVID-19 plague killed hundreds of thousands, sickened millions, and left hundreds of thousands with bizarre […]
VDH UltraThis Angry Old House, Part Four
Victor Davis Hanson A Child’s Garden of Animals Why stop now? Nonetheless, workers were told to thin out.

Joe Biden and Racial Demagoguery

VDH UltraThis Angry Old House, Part Three
Victor Davis Hanson A Child’s Garden of Animals I remembered all the wisdom, once caricatured, of my high-school coaches, and their rah-rah Americana inspiration talks during wrestling and football practices. And I now followed it: “Why not the best?” “Quitters never win; Winners never quit!” “Take this loss as a learning experience.” “Anything worth doing […]
Is Biden’s ‘Success’ Our Mess?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness If an administration deliberately wished to cause havoc on the border, to ensure fuel was nearly unaffordable, to create a crime wave, to spark 1970s hyperinflation, and to rekindle racial tensions, what would it have done differently than what Joe Biden has done? So is Biden malicious, incompetent, or a […]
VDH UltraThis Angry Old House, Part Two
Victor Davis Hanson A Child’s Garden of Animals And then a trigger set things off. A Dish installer remarked the roof was “squishy.” I confirmed it was. Curious, I took a look into the attic.

VDH UltraThis Angry Old House, Part One
Victor Davis Hanson A Child’s Garden of Animals I have lived in my great-grandmother’s, great-grandfather’s, grandfather’s, mother’s home since I was 26. I won’t name all those who have spent their last nights in the bedrooms before going to die in the hospital the next day. I was lectured in my twenties “to take care […]
