VDH UltraA Drive into Oblivion. Part Two
Victor Davis Hanson About 20 minutes later I came upon another farmhouse, of all of them, the most completely run down (most of the land in these parts has been purchased by huge operations and the homes rented out to workers or undocumented). I stopped right in the street in my truck, as again the […]

Tragically Trump
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness “Yet for a variety of reasons, both personal and civic, their characters not only should not be altered, but could not be, even if the tragic hero wished to change, given his megalomania and absolutist views of the human experience.

Tuesday Takeaways
What, if anything, did the midterms tell us about the country—other than underwhelming Republicans could still take the House and Senate? During the COVID lockdowns, American elections radically changed to mail-in and early voting. They did so in a wild variety of state-by-state ways. Add ranked voting and a required majority margin to the mess […]

VDH UltraA Drive into Oblivion. Part One
Víctor Davis Hanson I took a drive along a few rural roads last Sunday, and for no reason other than to get out and enjoy one of the last days of an Indian summer in rural central California. It was near sunset. The drought dust in the sky makes for some stunning sunsets over the […]

VDH UltraHow the Projectionist Game is Played. Part Four—“Insurrectionist!”
Victor Davis Hanson There is no need to review in detail the January 6th buffoonish riot in the Capitol. Instead concentrate on the subsequent effort of the Left to construct it into an “armed insurrection” and “conspiracy” to overthrow the government—as a way of demonizing conservatives as violent traitors and deflecting the violence of summer […]
The Pathetic Democratic Pantheon
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Over the last few months the four icons of the Democratic Party—Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Nancy Pelosi—have hit the campaign trail. They’ve weighed in on everything from “right-wing violence” and “election denialists” to the now tired “un-American” semi-fascist MAGA voter—and had nothing much to say about inflation, the […]

VDH UltraHow the Projectionist Game is Played. Part Three—Invoke the 25th Amendment!
Victor Davis Hanson How many times since 2017 did we hear the cry, “25 Amendment!” to remove Donald Trump from office on grounds he was non compos mentis?

The Left Were the Mad Scientists, We Were Their Lab Rats
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness As the midterms approach, one way of looking at America’s current disaster is that we, the American people, were lab rats. And since 2021, the Left were the mad scientists, eager to try out their crackpot leftist experiments on us. The result is that the housing market is tottering on […]

VDH UltraHow the Projectionist Game is Played. Part Two—Election Denialist!
Victor Davis Hanson Think of any recent leftwing accusation against the Right. Then automatically assume that it is evidence of the accuser’s own culpability for the very charge he levels against others.

VDH UltraHow the Projectionist Game is Played. Part One—“Racist!”
Victor Davis Hanson Almost anything or anyone the Left opposes is smeared as racist or a racist. And the rules are made only by the Left. The N-word is utterly racist. Yet it continues and obviously gains currency when rappers and comedians use it promiscuously on the assumptions that leftists and blacks cannot be racist […]
Permissible and Impermissible Incendiary Speech?
United States Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) hit the airwaves to connect the recent assault on Paul Pelosi with “fascism” and “white nationalism.” She insists that both are now ubiquitous. And both prompt increasing politically motivated violence. (Ocasio-Cortez remains oblivious to the greatest sustained political violence in our recent history; the 120 days of Black Lives […]
