VDH UltraThe Critical Race Rhetoric Versus the Reality on the Street

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet The Kenosha/Waukesha contrast summed up the great abyss between BLM/Woke/Media rhetoric and the soaring crime reality on the street. The former was hyped as race when it was not, the latter was written off as nonracial when it was. Rittenhouse should have never been arrested; Brooks should never have been […]

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet Race. The recent verdicts in the Kyle Rittenhouse and Ahmaud Arbery cases remind us that in the post-OJ age, the current jury system usually works well enough—given the former was rightly found innocent of murder and the killers of the latter probably had insufficient cause to justify lethal force based on

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet We have suffered an unfortunate ten months under Joe Biden, but also received a bitter and valuable reminder of the leftwing gods who failed. Here are some lessons Biden has offered since his inauguration. The common ideological theme of these disasters is an arrogant disavowal of unchanging human nature. Put

VDH UltraRemembering the Early Virus and the Wages of Tribalism

How did China become so sophisticated in its messaging to the Western world? Why was it so shameless in accusing the U.S. of the very sort of racism that it routinely had institutionalized? Apart from crass propaganda and the projectionist tactic of fobbing its own culpability for the pandemic onto the United States, China intuitively

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet By August 2020, the protests, demonstrations, riots, looting, and arson that followed from the national outrage over the killing of George Floyd had spread to most of America’s cities. But the furor over Floyd’s death was not the only catalyst of the protests. The previously instituted national quarantine—roughly from March

VDH UltraThe Dying Citizen versus the Unelected: From NASA to the Federal Health Care Apparat

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is another classical example of mission deviation and subsequent enfeeblement—a sort of organism that mutated from its birthing and now simply becomes anything it wishes.

VDH UltraThe New Nullificationers—or When Laws Mean Nothing

Victor Davis Hanson Eeyore’s Cabinet We now have about 500-600 jurisdictions that are “sanctuary” cities, counties, and entire states—where progressive neo-Confederates have declared that federal law is now null and void in their safe spaces. But perhaps the most recent and dramatic instance of the nullification of state and local laws—“de facto nullification” as a
