Kamala Harris’ Radical ‘No Bad Ideas’ Playbook, the Left’s War on Police, and Colbert’s Nihilism
Kamala Harris floats “no bad ideas” proposals like abolishing the Electoral College and packing the Supreme Court. Democrats only attack rules when out of power, argue Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” They connect these trends to broader left-wing efforts to change American institutions,… Continue reading Kamala Harris’ Radical ‘No Bad Ideas’ Playbook, the Left’s War on Police, and Colbert’s Nihilism

Are Some Racist Slurs Okay?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness One reason why the public turned on DEI was its insistence that roughly 70 percent of the country was stereotyped as victimizers by virtue of their skin color. In contrast, the other “diverse” 30 percent were de facto considered the victimized. In such absurd binaries, the left returned to the… Continue reading Are Some Racist Slurs Okay?
Trump’s Democratic ‘Allies’
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Former Clinton strategist James Carville has reinvented himself at age 80 as a sage Democrat podcaster. His predictions—remember, a victorious Kamala Harris?—are usually wrong. He enjoys engaging in public duels with celebrities to gain online clicks and media appearances.

From ‘Clingers’ to ‘Garbage’—Why the 16 years of Vilification?
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Who actually are the “garbage” people? Are they one and the same with Joe Biden’s “semi-fascists,” “chumps,” and “dregs of society?” Or Barack Obama’s “clingers?” Do they include Hillary Clinton’s “deplorables” and “irredeemables?” Are they FBI grandee Peter Strzok’s Walmart shoppers who “smell?” Over the last decade-and-a-half, Barack Obama, Hillary… Continue reading From ‘Clingers’ to ‘Garbage’—Why the 16 years of Vilification?
Once Joyful Harris Now Goes the Full McCarthyite
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness In the last two weeks, Kamala Harris has been trying to revive her stagnant campaign by smearing Trump as being Hitlerian and a fascist.

Kamala’s Inane Talking Points
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness As Vice President Kamala Harris slips in the polls, the Democratic National Committee/Harris Campaign/mainstream media fusion talking points become even more absurd. Claiming that J.D. Vance and Donald Trump were “weird” did not work—especially given the genuinely odd behavior of vice presidential candidate Tim Walz and would-be First Gentleman Doug… Continue reading Kamala’s Inane Talking Points
