    Communist Islamic Revolutionaries Are Up for Election | Victor Davis Hanson

    With Election Day approaching, an alliance between the Socialists and Islamists has formed on the American Left. The consequences of Mark Carney's refusal of trade deals with the U.S. increase as hundreds of thousands of jobs disappear in Canada. Brazil elects a socialist after laws change dubiously to extend the timeframe in which votes are cast. France faces a choice in its upcoming election to resist the ideologies that burn its cities down; however, the medicine of closed borders and diminished state welfare seems worse than its disease to the European left. Victor delves into the presidencies of James Garfield and Woodrow Wilson for the Saturday Special’s presidential segment. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA MovementThe Daily Signal, the proud producers of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” has a special limited time offer:  With a monthly donation $14, you’ll become BOTH a Signal Elite Supporter AND receive a copy of “The Counterrevolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement”Click here to order: https://secured.dailysignal.com/support-daily-signal-today/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=signalelite&utm_content=260820-vdh-book-youtube NEW FILM, The Immigration Crisis That Will Destroy The West, presented by The Heritage Foundation, OUT NOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX0rwaEs5jA Vaer Watches - Go to http://www.vaerwatches.com/vdhHome Title Lock - Go to https://hometitlelock.com/victor to apply promo code VICTOR for a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of their Triple Lock Protection.

    The Hypocrisy Behind Obama's Latest Attack on Trump | Victor Davis Hanson

    Barack Obama is taking aim at Donald Trump’s White House renovations, personal wealth and foreign policy, inviting scrutiny of his own record. On “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson and Jack Fowler weigh those attacks against Obama’s controversial presidential center, growing fortune and foreign policy decisions, including the Iran nuclear deal and Benghazi, raising questions about political hypocrisy. Hanson also addresses claims of fabricated election polling, warning that misleading numbers can influence voter enthusiasm, fundraising and turnout. Trump’s foreign policy draws comparisons with Richard Nixon’s Cold War diplomacy, including the case for a negotiated end to the war in Ukraine and questions about Europe’s dependence on American military support. The episode also revisits the devastating Battle of Verdun and its lasting impact on France, alongside lessons from Agincourt about military strategy and the consequences of war.

    Why Does LeBron James Disrespect the Country That Made Him Rich? | Victor Davis Hanson

    LeBron James has made a fortune in America, yet he can’t show a few minutes of respect during the national anthem. Jack Fowler and I look at his latest antics, the NBA’s ties to China, and the political double standards surrounding Caitlin Clark and the WNBA. We also examine the charges against two former FBI officials over the Hunter Biden laptop investigation, reports of Antifa networks behind Europe’s unrest, California’s proposed billionaire tax, and the Smithsonian’s treatment of Shelby and Eli Steele’s documentary, White Guilt.

    Europe's Decline Is Becoming Impossible to Ignore | Victor Davis Hanson

    Today, I sat down with Sami Winc to discuss the growing unrest in France, antisemitic attacks, and the consequences of Europe’s immigration policies. We examine the economic and cultural pressures facing European nations, including the strain on social welfare systems, declining defense capabilities, and the struggle to preserve national identity. We also turn to challenges closer to home, including America’s mounting national debt, wealth tax proposals, and what the presidencies of Rutherford B. Hayes and Warren G. Harding reveal about political corruption and public accountability. Along the way, we discuss why some Americans are reconsidering life abroad, the debate surrounding the WNBA, and the lessons Israel’s counterterrorism efforts offer for the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

    Victor Davis Hanson: Ilhan Omar and the Stakes of the Midterms

    The 2026 midterms will be a critical test of the direction of the Democratic Party and the future of American politics. From the questions and controversies surrounding Rep. Ilhan Omar to the economy, the war with Iran and the ongoing struggle over Ukraine, these issues raise serious questions about leadership, accountability and America’s national interests.   Europe’s reluctance to support American efforts and the economic pressures facing Americans displays the challenges confronting the country. The midterms will be about more than individual candidates or policy disputes; they will help determine the direction of the nation and the balance of power in Congress.

    Victor Davis Hanson: The Dangerous Decline of Western Civilization

    Western civilization is facing a crisis of its own making. Across Europe, mass immigration, failed assimilation, economic stagnation, and political paralysis are threatening the very foundations of nations that once dominated the world. Rather than confront these problems, European leaders seem determined to double down on the policies that created them. Meanwhile, Barack Obama's warnings about political retaliation raise questions about his own administration's record, NPR's Katherine Maher receives a free speech award, and America's universities are producing students who struggle with basic reading and comprehension. We also look at Elon Musk's latest innovations and what they reveal about America's ability to build and innovate.
