Five years later, Victor Davis Hanson takes a hard look at real aftermath of Floyd's death on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ There was $2 billion in damage. There was a police precinct burned to the ground, in Minneapolis. There was a federal courthouse that was burned. There was a historic St. John's Church—across from the White House—that was torched. A mob tried to go into the White House grounds and reach the president.” “And the country now is learning it's lessons. It's trying to find a sober solution. A reaction. I think they're trying—we're trying to come to a conclusion. Why in the world did we go completely collectively insane?” (1:27) Background on George Floyd (2:49) The Aftermath and Riots (5:00) Systemic Racism and Anti-Racism Movement (5:55) Impact on Universities and Society (7:01) Current Reflections and Conclusions (8:55) Closing Remarks and Call to Action

Sorry, Harvard, but we're not going to give you billions of taxpayer dollars, no questions asked.    The Trump administration is set to eliminate its remaining government contracts with Harvard University, totally over $100 million, reports the New York Times. This comes off the heels of the administration's commitment to also prevent the once prestigious university from enrolling foreign student.    The federal government does not have an obligation to blindly give a private university billions of dollars of taxpayer money, just like immigration officials are not forced to automatically give visas to foreign nationals, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “I think the argument from the administration that maybe our right-wing friends are missing is not that the Trump administration doesn't have a right to go in and micromanage. They're just saying, ‘I don't really wanna give Harvard any money. They've got $53 billion. They're private. They're not public institutions. But you know, if they ask us and they want money, then we have to look at why we would give it to them.'    “And it's kind of like Mr. Smith coming from Korea or Mr. Jones coming from Sweden. We look at them and we don't really think they add to the Americans. So, we don't have an invitation.'”

Last week's killings of two Israeli embassy employees in the name of “Free Palestine” is just another sad example of how the Left has lowered the bar for the justification of political violence.    Endemic antisemitism continues to spread on college campus across America because the people responsible, DEI proponents and recipients, feel that they are untouchable, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”   “So, that is one thing that's happening. And that makes violence more permissible. The other is this endemic antisemitism. Let's be honest. It's not some cowboy in Wyoming in 1950 that doesn't like Jews. We're talking about two nexuses that come together and promulgate antisemitism. The one is wealthy people in the universities—many of them DEI, but not all—who feel that it's either en vogue or, as DEI people, they cannot be criticized as victims for victimizing others, meaning foreign students from the Middle East. And in that cauldron, it becomes permissible to say, “Globalize the intifada,” “River to the sea,” the eliminationist rhetoric about Israel, storm a library, chase Jews into a library, damage the president's office, rough up a Jewish kid on campus. It was all acceptable. There were no consequences. That's why those three college presidents either were fired or had to resign.” 

Donald Trump is the first U.S. President in over 30 years who is seriously talking about reducing the country's budget deficit, trade deficit and yes, the national debt, which has ballooned to over $37 trillion. However, he must follow a specific formula, otherwise, it will end in tragedy, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition […]

Donald Trump is the first U.S. President in over 30 years who is seriously talking about reducing the country's budget deficit, trade deficit and yes, the national debt, which has ballooned to over $37 trillion.    However, he must follow a specific formula, otherwise, it will end in tragedy, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”     “Jermone Powell, the head of the Fed, will not lower interest rates even though there's been a good jobs report, a good inflation report, a good corporate profits report. GDP is gonna be evaluated, apparently, upward and there's been low energy cost. That mortgage is still 4.25% Fed rate to 4.5%. And that means mortgages are still 6.5%, 7%. And that housing market is slowing as a result.   “So, you've got to get that down. And the way Trump has to do it is just two ways: Either cut the budget or raise taxes—which will strangle the economy—or continue the tax cuts. And hope two things: that the tax cuts—the extension—will prime the economy, along with cheap interest rates.   And the question that we all have now: Is cutting taxes on tips, is cutting taxes on Social Security, is cutting taxes on first responder, etc.—all of which Trump has mentioned—is that really stimulus as opposed to, say, accelerated depreciation investment for businesses? I don't know the answer. But I do know, as a historian, that if you do not cut the deficit and the national debt and you have bond raters like Moody's or the Fed that will not lower interest rates, you're going to be in a crisis.” 

Nigel Biggar, who faced cancel culture for his efforts to reexamine the narrative demonizing the British empire, opens up about the ideological commitments behind cancel culture. He says the Left's "repressive" desire to silence "anyone who disagrees" is part of a "really, really bad religion," in which people mistake themselves for God.

CNN's Jake Tapper helped promulgate one of the greatest cover-ups in American history. Just because he decided to write a book four years later saying everything to the contrary doesn't change that. Nothing will, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “For the last four years, again and again and again, if anybody questioned the obvious mental decline of Joe Biden—his cognitive difficulties—Jake Tapper, and went on CNN, Jake Tapper tore them apart. “The locus classicus was Lara Trump, who said that he's obviously—as early as 2020—in decline. And he suggested that she was berating him for a childhood stutter, which was absolutely ridiculous. “Why didn't Jake Tapper write this a year ago? Because he knows what would've happened. Somebody in the White House would've called up and said, ‘Tapper, no one from CNN is gonna get a seat at a press conference. There's not gonna be any CNN interview.'  “So, he backed down. And now in a very cowardly fashion, now he comes out and he is blaming the White House cover-up. But what he doesn't tell us is the White House cover-up would have been impossible had not CNN, MSNBC, PBS, NBC, ABC, CBS all conspired with the White House staff to downplay—not just downplay Biden's cognitive decline but attack people.”

Megyn Kelly is joined by Victor Davis Hanson, author of "The End of Everything," to discuss the viral interview between Megyn and Jake Tapper, how Tapper admitted that the “conservative media was right” about Biden, how the corporate media is using Jake Tapper's book to cover up their own culpability, how the left media and Democrats used Biden until he was no longer useful, the way the media themselves perpetrated the Biden cover-up for years, the "Biden office" claiming Biden never had a PSA test after 2014, the dubious claims that his White House physicals wouldn't have caught his serious cancer, Secretary of State Marco Rubio's heated exchange with Sen.

Let's not get into offending foreign leaders. … Not to lecture them, but to create economic matrices, nexuses, in which people find that it's in their vested interest to profit rather than to kill people. “ What he's emphasizing is that there is a common bond in the world. And that common bond is in the heart of everybody. They want peace and they want prosperity and they want security. That's not necessarily antithetical or exclusionary of freedom because, obviously, economic ability—the ability to make money and the ability to be secure—often has an element of what?

In this episode, we sit down again with Victor Davis Hanson, a classicist, military historian, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, and author of two dozen books, including most recently “The End of Everything.”In this interview, we dive into the multifaceted dimensions of what he describes as Trump's “counterrevolution” in the foreign policy space, from Canada to China to the Middle East to Ukraine and Russia.What might the end of the wars in Ukraine and Gaza look like?Should Trump have accepted a plane from Qatar's royal family? Was it a good idea to lift U.S. sanctions on Syria's new leader? Is there any truth to rumors of friction between Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu?Is it possible that Trump actually, in some sense, wanted Mark Carney to win and become Prime Minister of Canada?And how can the United States ensure the Chinese leadership upholds their commitments in a trade agreement, given their track record of not following through?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

   We remember the great George Wendt, America's favorite barfly, Norm Peterson on Cheers.  Wendt had all kinds of ties to Kansas City and is remembered as a great family man and one of the all time great characters in the history of television.    While Trump was working on Cap Hill for the Big Bill, he kept bringing up Joe Biden's auto pen signatures and it's pretty clear now a huge investigation is about to begin.  Who exactly ran our country the last four years?    Victor Davis Hanson, on a podcast, muses that Kansas City could be a new destination for the FBI to have headquarters outside DC.  If true, this could be thousands of jobs here.    The Royals have another weak night at the plate and fall to the Giants, 3-2.  KU is having an incredible baseball season and their coach has just won a huge award.  And an incredible, global cycling event is here this holiday weekend and it sounds like the toughest event ever.  

In this episode, Victor Davis Hanson and co-host Jack Fowler examine the recent gifted plane from Qatar, Comey's 8647, Robert Hur's audio released, Hannah Dugan and other ICE protests, Harvard's board, and the new masquerade for DEI in universities and libraries.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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.”

One of the most important reasons President Donald Trump won in 2024 was his very convincing case that the Biden family was corrupt. The president should act swiftly and make certain to an already hostile media that Qatar's gift, the ‘palace in the sky', is in keeping with ethical standards, argues Victor Davis Hanson on […]

And just to reassure this predatory media—not that you have to cater them or not that you have to listen to them—but just someone in the administration, an ethics czar, that advises all of the Trump family and associates to make a firewall between them and presidential assistance.”

Why did the DNC, White House staffers and even seasoned journalists lie to the American people when they decided to run cover for Joe Biden?   It's not enough just to say, “Politics. We want power.” What was the strategy to make you do something so egregious, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”   “The same existential is why do all these reporters say now, ‘We were in on the deal, we covered up for Biden'? ‘The Biden staff did it.' ‘No, the media did it.' But they all agreed that he was non compos mentis. He was cognitively challenged when he was nominated, when they cleared the nomination field out. They got rid of Buttigeig. They got rid of Elizabeth Warren. They got rid of Sanders. They all disappeared quickly.   “And then they used this waxen effigy as a veneer. But why? That was very risky to do that. They all tell us they did it but they don't tell us why… They saw this as a wonderful opportunity. Use Joe Biden and just have him come in three days a week, stumble through stuff, and then push through the most left-wing, nihilistic, destructive, socialist agenda in history.”

Iran Thinks They Can Outlast Trump. Can They?    President Donald Trump embarked on his first major foreign trip to the Middle East this week, making stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.    The goal? Replacing “strife” with “money,” bring Iran into the fold, and drop hostilities towards Israel. An ambitious agenda, maybe too ambitious, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “And the subtext of all of these meetings were: We're going to replace strife with money. We're all gonna be profitable. And we have to bring the cause of all of this trouble, Iran, into the fold of the Middle East and drop the hostility to Israel. Notice, of course, that he didn't go to Israel, although he was trying to elicit support for the continuation of the Abraham Accords with Saudi Arabia and Qatar.   “This is very ambitious but it's also very dangerous. Donald Trump thinks he can cut a deal with Iran so that they would do essentially three things: They would give up their nuclear program; they would stop the subsidies to the terrorist surrogates of the Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis; and they would liberalize their society and reenter the family of nations.   I don't think that Shia theocracy feels that is their agenda.”

It's time to sett the record straight on “The Media.” More than 100 days since starting his second term, and the corporate media has nothing good to say about President Donald Trump, and his administration.  Elon Musk received negative coverage 96% of the time on evening news, according to an April study conducted by the Media Research Center.  Why did the media go from loving Sen. John Fetterman to questioning his mental competency? Bottom line: What the corporate media, most namely ABC, NBC and CBS, labels “the truth” is wholey dependent on whether it benefits the political Left, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “Elon Musk, according to the Media Research Center, has had 96% unfavorable coverage in our American media. What did he do that was so wrong? He rescued astronauts who were stranded in space. Tesla has revolutionized the electric vehicle industry. Social media is open and free, due to his acquisition of X. Starlink has more satellites—that private entity that he created—it has more satellites than the governments of the United States, all of the EU countries, and China combined. It is the world's methodology of accessing high-speed internet from remote places or anywhere. So, what has he done wrong?

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks about White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stunning the mainstream media and Trump's critics with a major trade deal between the US and the United Kingdom as well as a temporary de-escalation with Xi Jinping over the US- China trade deal and a significant lowering of tariffs between the United States and China; White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivering a perfectly savage response to a reporter accusing Donald Trump of trying to use the office of the president to enrich his businesses; Rep.LaMonica McIver getting caught trying to break into a New Jersey ICE detention facility, Kristi Noem's perfect comeback to Senator Chris Van Hollen over the controversy surrounding the deportation of Kilmar Ábrego García; why a McDonalds in Fairfax Virginia now has a doorbell to deal with non-stop youth violence; Bernie Sanders staunchly defending his hypocritical use of a private jet to Fox News' Bret Baier for his Fight the Oligarchy rallies with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; “Real Time with Bill Maher's” audience cheering for Maher making clear that the young people of the Democratic Party like Hamas a lot more than any patriotism for America; and much more.

Trump is sending a clear message: he's not going away quietly. “ If you read The Washington Post, even The Wall Street Journal, but especially The New York Times, the question is, can MAGA survive after Trump steps down? “ There's arguments on both sides whether a popular movement can survive its creators. …   Al Gore won the popular vote in 2000 to succeed him. And what did Barack Obama do? He repudiated Clintonism and the Democratic Leadership Council. And he went hard to the Left. And the result of that is we got a destroyed or an irrelevant Democratic Party.” 00:00 Introduction: Is Trump a Lame Duck? 00:23 Trump's Media Trolling and Third Term Speculation 01:29 Historical Context: Movements and Their Leaders 01:52 Reaganism and Its Aftermath 02:49 Clintonism and Obama's Shift 03:28 The Future of MAGA: DeSantis and Beyond 05:46 Conclusion: The Enduring MAGA Ideology Learn more about your ad choices.
