Victor Davis Hanson: The Left Called Trump’s Iran Strike ‘Unconstitutional.’ Their History of Inconsistency and Immorality Says Otherwise The Left has no ground to stand on for ridiculing President Donald Trump’s strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Does the left have consistency on any issue? Its the defining attribute of the left, inconsistent and convoluted logic.

@WallStreetMav The left's morality is buried with Fordow. They are a disgrace to America.

Victor Davis Hanson: Obama Dreamed of an Iranian-Lead Axis to Counter Israel, Then Trump Destroyed It Since striking Iran’s nuclear sites and military personnel last June, America and Israel have brought the Islamic regime to its knees. A web of paranoia, triggered by Israel's systematic dismantling of Iran’s terrorist surrogates and in-country air defense systems, has caused the regime to lash out against an already wary population. The Obama-Biden administration tried for years to position Iran, and its surrogates, as a “counterweight” to Israel and the more moderate Arab countries in the region, favoring neither one side nor the other. President Donald Trump’s strike on Iran and subsequent sanctions have tipped the scales in favor of Israel and the more moderate Middle East regimes. “ We don't have to be the instigators. We don't have to stage coups. All we have to do is turn up the heat and let this pot boil over. And boil over it will,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: The Optimistic, the Realistic, and the Pessimistic Scenarios for Iran With the Israel-Iran war stretching into its second week, commentators from all sides of the political arena have been delivering their optimistic, pessimistic, and realistic opinions on the conflict. Here are the facts: The war is going in Israel's favor. There’s a 50-50 chance of regime change, but only a 25% chance the new leaders will be better than Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Trump administration might have to intervene but is holding back because it thinks Israel will find a creative way to destroy Iran's underground nuclear facilities on its own, surmises Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: John Brennan Has Himself to Blame for FBI Investigation The FBI announced they are launching a criminal investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan for “potential wrongdoing related to the Trump-Russia probe," according to Fox News Digital. John Brennan, one of the main architects behind the 2016 Russian Collusion Hoax, and a contributor to the 2020 Hunter Biden “Laptop From Hell” Cover-up, has a storied history of being at the heart of the most significant scandals in American history of the last 50 years.

Victor Davis Hanson: We Needed a New President, not ‘Comprehensive Immigration Reform’ Why did Joe Biden let 10-12 million illegal aliens into the U.S.? The Good News: We’ve gone from over 120,000 people a month coming across the border illegally in April 2024 to fewer than 10,000 in April 2025. The Bad News: The Left operates under a simple principle: “It is lawful to be unlawful if you're Joe Biden—according to the courts—but it is unlawful to be lawful if you're Donald Trump. And the result is that we've got these 10 to 12 million people. Are we going to have an immigration hearing for each one of them?

Victor Davis Hanson: Strong Fathers Build Civilizations—Weak Ones Lose Them As we approach Father’s Day on June 15th, Victor Davis Hanson reflects on the vital, often forgotten role of fathers in shaping strong families and a strong nation. In a culture that increasingly downplays masculinity and the traditional family, Victor Davis Hanson calls for a reevaluation of fatherhood—not as an optional accessory, but as a cornerstone of moral courage, responsibility, and strength on today's episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words." “ One of the roles of fathers is to give young children, especially males, a sense of direction. And almost this tragic sense that sometimes you have to do things that you don't want to do, but somebody else won't do them, you're going to be in trouble. “To the degree this country will make it, it will be a strong father figure that instructs us how to be masculine. How to be a man. How to protect the weak. How to stand forward and challenge bullies, that prey on the weak and the innocent. And that's a lost art now. 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: Prostate Cancer Doesn’t Develop Immediately. What Biden’s Team Isn’t Telling Us There are more mysteries than answers surrounding the Biden team. Why did Joe Biden's medical team announce right now—on the eve of the release of “Original Sin”—this shocking story that the president, who just left office 100 days ago, was suffering from a very seriously rare, malignant form of prostate cancer, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “President—he was vice president, he was president, now he's an ex-president. They are accorded the best, most comprehensive diagnostic medical care in the world. Isn't it true that Joe Biden would've known about this? We just had a report—right before he stepped down, in the summer of 2024—an exhaustive medical report, that he was fine. But he is trying to tell us, or sadly, his team is trying to tell us that, just in a matter of nine months, he developed a prostate cancer unknown to all of his doctors. Unknown—that didn't appear on any of his diagnostic tests.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: Zohran Mamdani's Skeletons Are Coming Out of the Closet As New York City's Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani gains momentum, a troubling record is beginning to emerge—one that raises serious questions about his judgment, ideology, and honesty. With no record of holding a real job outside activism, music, and campaigning, Mamdani has built his political identity on class warfare, racial rhetoric, and far-Left ideology. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the latest on Mamdani in today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Barack Obama, when he was president, ordered a predator hit team on and killed [Anwar] al-Awlaki in a targeted assassination….Now we learned in 2015, years after that Obama hit on this ISIS figure, Mamdani was defending him and saying, basically, he turned radical because FBI surveilled him. “He has some other disturbing things, as well. He posted a video on his social media of Indian Americans dressed as if they were Hasidic Jews. And they were making fun of the Hanukkah celebration. And they had a menorah there. And they were chanting, as if they were rap music. It was very derogatory toward Jews. Yet, why would he put that on his social media account?” (0:00) Introduction to Zohran Mamdani (0:57) Controversial Statements and Actions (2:24) Defending Extremists (3:47) Cultural Insensitivity and Identity Issues (5:56) Conclusion 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: Israel-Iran War Will ‘Be For Naught’ if the Regime, Nuclear Program Survive Regardless of whether Israel has the capabilities to decimate Iran’s entire nuclear program, or if the United States needs to become further involved in the war and provide Israel with “bunker-buster” bombs, one thing is clear: “If this war should end with the Iranian regime intact and the elements of its nuclear program recoverable, then, in some ways, it will be all for naught,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “It is surreal. If we had this conversation five years ago and I said to you, ‘the Iranian nation—that is huge compared to Israel, 10 times the population—the Iranian nation has lost all control of the Houthi terrorists and they are themselves neutered. Their surrogates in the West Bank, Gaza are neutered. They're gone, Hamas as a fighting force. The formidable, the terrifying Hezbollah cadres, they're inert. ‘“‘There is no Russian presence. It's not a patron. It is not a protector. It's not a power in the Middle East. It's tied down in Ukraine. And Iran itself, the formidable powerhouse of the Middle East that evoked terror all over, has no defenses...' “And we're down to a single critical issue… if this war should end with the Iranian regime intact and the elements of its nuclear program recoverable, then, in some ways, it will be all for naught.’” 👉 This episode is sponsored by the Pepperdine School of Public Policy.

VDH: Democrats Betray Democracy to Stop Trump The Left claims they’re “saving democracy” from Donald Trump—but their actions tell a different story. Democrats have pushed some of the most brazen political scandals in modern history—from the Russia collusion hoax, to burying the Hunter Biden laptop, to hiding President Biden’s cognitive decline—all in the name of stopping Trump. Victor Davis Hanson exposes how the Left has undermined democracy in the very process of claiming to defend it on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ The problem, James Carville and Democrats, is that you have sabotaged democracy. And you’ve done things that no one has ever done before to an oppositional candidate, presidential transition, and president. And now you’re furious because you’re on the 40% side of every issue that’s dear to you—from the trans issue to the border issue, to the crime issue, to the Green New Deal issue, to foreign policy. And you have no political power. You don’t have the White House, you don’t have the Congress, you don’t have the Supreme Court. And your institutional power—the media, academia, the foundation—they are under assault.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

VDH: Trump Broke the Left and Exposed Their Dirty Playbook The Left isn’t just losing in politics. They’re losing their minds. What is the root cause of this months-long descent into mania and violence? I think we all know the answer, and he goes by Trump. The President isn’t just pushing policy; he’s striking at the heart of the institutions that prop up the progressive agenda. Victor Davis Hanson unpacks the real sources of the Democrats’ rage on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Why are they so angry? Why isn’t this the old party of Bill Clinton? Or even the party of Barack Obama? One: They have no institutional power. They do not have the House. They do not have the Senate. They do not have the White House. They do not have the Supreme Court. They do not have the issues. There are 30/70, 20/80 issues. And they’re on the wrong side. “ Put it all together and they’re mad, mad, mad. And they should be because Donald Trump threatens not just to take their power away, but the sources of their power.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Victor Davis Hanson: Beware, Elon Musk’s ‘America Party’ Could Be Democrats' Path Back to Power Elon Musk announced this weekend he’s launching a third party named the “America Party” following fierce criticism of President Donald Trump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill. But from the Bull Moose Party to Ross Perot, third-party efforts rarely succeed and often hand power to the Left. Will this be another spoiler moment that hurts Republicans in 2026 and 2028? Victor Davis Hanson breaks it down on today's episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words." “ It's kind of an effort to hurt Donald Trump, both in the Congress and his successor in four years. But here's the question that I have for Elon Musk, and that is, does he really believe that he can pull this off? Apparently, he does. “ I don't think in the next midterm election there's going to be American Party senators or representatives. However, they do, in some cases, affect elections. And for the most part, it's unpredictable. Nobody knows what the situation will be in 2028. But Elon Musk must know that it won't be a constructive role.” 👉 This episode is sponsored by the Pepperdine School of Public Policy.
