Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc cover New York’s Mamdani removing a city webpage celebrating ties with Israel and broader incidents they describe as a mainstreaming of antisemitism, which Hanson attributes to DEI ideology, Middle East money and influence in universities, and Israel’s current strength. Hanson recounts a contentious Piers Morgan appearance defending Israel and warns of rising street-level attacks on Jews. They assess reports of a possible Trump-Iran agreement, arguing Iran is untrustworthy and urging verifiable surrender of enriched uranium and limits on missiles, while addressing War Powers Act politics. Hanson attacks Canada’s Mark Carney and Europe’s reliance on U.S. defense, then turns to California’s “jungle primary,” proposed new taxes, the Palisades arson suspect’s left-wing posts, campus activism, and a Supreme Court redistricting ruling he says could reshape House seats and elections.
Victor,
Your analyzes seem more direct, since Trump’s re-election and perhaps your illness, which is most appreciated. Everyone comments on your wisdom, but you do have a wonderful mind.
As to Ted Turner, he was always a sailor, Classics Major at Brown Univ. and Captain of Sailing Team. Chair of Classics Dept. laughingly said Ted used to party all night and show up at the Board House that morning in a 3-piece suit ready for competition.
Thanks for the profile of Canadian PM Carney, the globalist ex-banker dealing a weak hand.
Dr. Hanson, one expects advertisers and politicians to lie. But when academics lie, it is corrosive. Thank you for telling the truth.
