VDH UltraTreat the University as It Is Now, Not as It Once Was
Victor Davis HansonEeyore’s Cabinet The following assessments and suggestions for change are not exaggerations about higher education in America. Universities are now openly political agents, not disinterested places of learning. Their faculty and administration are overwhelmingly leftwing, to the point, according to surveys and campaign donation data, of being over 90 percent Democratic/Leftwing. But they […]
The Transmogrification of Biden
VDH and Jack Fowler Talk about Biden’s political collapse, the left’s obsession with voting rights, and Hillary Clinton resurfacing.
VDH UltraIf…
Victor Davis HansonWords Matter If we used the leftwing standard of supposed requisite requirements for a vice-presidential candidate that the Left felt was never met by the pilloried Dan Quayle or Sarah Palin (remember how they called George H. W. Bush and John McCain “reckless” for choosing such running mates?), then how do we characterize […]
Conspiracies as Realities, Realities as Conspriacies
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness American politics over the last half decade has become immersed in a series of conspiracy charges leveled by Democrats against their opponents that, in fact, are happening because of them and through them.

VDH UltraWhat Will the 2022 Midterms look like? Part Three
Victor Davis Hanson Historian’s Corner IV. The Republican and Democratic Splits There are quasi-religious and bitter schisms in both parties. On the Right, national and cultural populists vie with shrinking establishment, libertarian, and pre-2016 Republicans; on the Left, radical Jacobins and Socialists versus the Manchinian remnants of the old Democratic Party. But the divisions—ignore the media […]

VDH UltraWhat Will the 2022 Midterms look like? Part Two
Victor Davis Hanson Historian’s Corner III. An Agenda Can the Republicans move beyond just completing the original, necessary Trump agenda on closing the border, legal-only immigration, deterrence against China, energy production, and immunity from optional military engagements in the Middle East, and industrial and manufacturing resurgence in the rust belt, and conservative judicial appointments? What would […]

Politicizing COVID19 From the Start
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness From the moment COVID-19 appeared, the pandemic became inseparable from politics. Political frenzy was inevitable since the SARS-CoV-2 virus likely escaped from a level-4 security virology lab in Wuhan, China. The rapid-fire spread soon threatened to indict the communist Chinese government for nearly destroying the world economy and killing millions. […]
VDH UltraWhat Will the 2022 Midterms look like? Part One
Victor Davis Hanson Historian’s Corner I. The Midterm Hype We can imagine the hit commercials. On the Left, the Democrats will not wish to highlight their two-year record on the economy, Afghanistan, energy, the border, critical race theory, or almost anything. So? No surprise, it will be nonstop, 24-7, 360-degrees, forever and always January 6! […]

What Makes Riots, Conspiracies, Cabals, and Insurrections ‘Good’ or ‘Bad’?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Indeed, men too often take upon themselves in the prosecution of their revenge to set the example of doing away with those general laws to which alike can look for salvation in adversity, instead of allowing them to subsist against the day of danger when their aid may be required.” […]

VDH UltraRemembrance of Rural Things Past: Part Three
Victor Davis Hanson The Great Father-Son PTA Nights In this same town, at this same half-rural elementary school, there was not just an annual pinewood derby. There was also Fathers-and-Sons PTA night (and a Fathers-and-Daughters night that we were ineligible for, given my sister had died at one, and we three boys were it). What […]
The Bite of the Scorpion
VDH shares his views with Sami Winc on Jan. 6 and the FBI, universities going online, social media censors, the fate of the Democratic Party, and Elizabeth Holmes verdict.
VDH UltraRemembrance of Rural Things Past: Part Two.
Victor Davis Hanspm The Great Pinewood Derby We got along because there were lots of civic occasions that cemented us together. One was the annual Cub Scouts “Pinewood Derby” race. Fourth to sixth graders bought pinewood derby kits for $2. They got a lot for their money: a block of light pine, some plastic wheels, […]
The Politics of Scapegoating
Joshua Mitchell // First Things The contemporary political and social crisis in America cries out for explanation. Above all, we need a comprehensive account of the identity politics—the politics of innocence and transgression, in which race, gender, and sexuality play central parts—that seems to be sweeping liberal politics as we have known it into the […]
