The Worst and the Stupidest?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Elites have always been ambiguous about the muscular classes who replace their tires, paint their homes, and cook their food.

VDH UltraHow and Why Did Democrats Become Revolutionaries? Part Two
Victor Davis Hanson In sum, when thousands of atheists and agnostics have access to all the world’s delights with unchecked riches, they both indulge and yet feel terrible about their excess and indulgence.

‘Civil War’ Porn
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness As Joe Biden’s polls stagnate and the midterms approach, we are now serially treated to yet another progressive melodrama about the dangers of a supposed impending radical right-wing violent takeover. This time the alleged threat is a Neanderthal desire for a “civil war.” The FBI raid on Donald Trump’s Florida […]
VDH UltraHow and Why Did Democrats Become Revolutionaries? Part One
Victor Davis Hanson The current Left is certainly not the party of Harry Truman or JFK—or for that matter even of Bill Clinton. Neither ordered the FBI to raid the home of their predecessors. It is a revolutionary, a Jacobin party intent not just on winning elections and implementing more redistribution, bigger government, and higher […]
VDH UltraIf You Are Going to Taiwan, Then, Dammit, Go! Continued.
Victor Davis Hanson First, tell the Chinese that Pelosi is flying to China and will be escorted there militarily. Two, inform the Chinese that there is a new policy of reciprocity.

Why Merrick Garland Is Losing the People
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday held a belated press conference to explain that he had personally approved the FBI’s raid of Donald Trump’s Florida residence to seize documents deemed U.S. government property.

VDH UltraIf You Are Going to Taiwan, Then, Dammit, Go! Part Two.
Victor Davis Hanson Historian’s Corner Five. The Ukrainian war further whetted the Chinese beak. Our oil sanctions, thanks to huge Russian fuel purchases by India and China, are not working. Russia is now mercilessly grinding down the Ukrainians in a war of attrition. Europe is insidiously losing its enthusiasm for the war, as its winter […]
War on Ag and Education in America
Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler as they discuss the Green war on agriculture and the woke war on knowledge and empiricism, and the glibness of Gavin Newsom’s hope to be a presidential candidate in 2024.
FBI, R.I.P.?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness The FBI is dissolving before our eyes into a rogue security service akin to those in Eastern Europe during the Cold War. Take the FBI’s deliberately asymmetrical application of the law. This week the bureau surprise-raided the home of former President Donald Trump—an historical first. A massive phalanx of FBI […]

Victor Davis Hanson “Gentlemen. If you’re going to take Vienna, take Vienna.” Attributed to Napoleon So supposedly Napoleon reminded his generals of the need to go full bore to finish any planned campaign—or suffer the wages of perceived weakness despite the ambition of the agenda.
