“You’re terrible at fear-mongering.” Hey Victor, Leftist nihilist hear, saying “Hi”. I hope you’re having a great day and not huddled in a corner, crying in agony, from the Biden crime families torment. I’m taking a quick break from plotting to destroy the America you love, to just let you know what a complete dipshit […]
Harvard President Claudine Gay’s tenure is on life-support. Why, then, would a woke black woman likely soon be asked to resign at one of the most leftwing institutions in America, especially when the Harvard Corporation board hired her precisely for her DEI credentials? Here are several reasons why ultimately she will have to go. If
Victor Davis Hanson The Deep State Remember when we used to trust, at least somewhat, the FBI, the CIA, the DOJ, and the Pentagon? That was before the era of Robert Mueller, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Christopher Wray, John Brennan, James Clapper, and “51 intelligence authorities,” who either lied under oath, or suppressed the truth,
Victor Davis Hanson The Culture What were woke, DEI, ESG, and cancel culture? What was behind the iconoclasm, the massive 2020 riots, arson, looting, and the blanket amnesties extended to them, soon to be juxtaposed to the long prison sentences for the far less violent, one-day Capitol protests? We should remember that no American ever
Victor Davis Hanson Foreign Policy There have been plenty of foreign policy disasters over the last 60 years since the Vietnam Era. But even in our failures, there was no inherent intent to destroy ourselves and to deliberately harm efforts to improve our security and stature overseas. Not now. Why are we experiencing one of
Victor Davis Hanson Crime We have experienced high crime in the past, especially following the racial tensions and hippie “let it all hang out” unreality of the 1960s, and the erosion of norms and general breakdown as fantasized in the Escape from New York/Death Wish/Dirty Harry days of the 1970s and early 1980s. But once again, as
Victor Davis Hanson Americans feel like they awoke one morning in 2023 trapped inside a Kafka novel. We thought we were normal, but in this new, radically changed America, we cannot identify any familiar referent. We ourselves, believing that we are still “normal” and wedded to protecting and carrying on the American experiment, are somehow
Victor Davis Hanson I wrote on X about the three blind mice college presidents (Gay of Harvard, Kornbluth of MIT, and Magill of University of Pennsylvania). Recently, one blind mouse has tentatively resigned under pressure, Liz Magill, former dean of the Stanford Law School and lately president of the University of Pennsylvania. An introductory note and warning:
Victor Davis Hanson Almost daily, western news agencies quote “15,000 civilian deaths” caused by the Israel Defense Forces. They once at least used to qualify “according to Hamas authorities.” Now they don’t even do that much, but employ “Palestinian authorities,” as a euphemism for Hamas liars. How does Hamas know the roughly exact number of
The leftwing media is shrieking about the impending “end of democracy” given the looming “Trump dictatorship” they fear. Characteristic of their scenarios is that they never follow up to cite extralegal actions Trump took while President. Let’s examine areas where dictatorial behavior might have appeared to confirm their charges and predictions: 1) Did Trump ever
