Podcast appearances and mentions of Victor Davis Hanson

After years of alienating working-class voters, Democrats are suddenly trying to rebrand themselves as champions of Main Street with candidates like James Talarico and Graham Platner. From carefully crafted campaign images to handpicked candidates marketed as authentic, the party is betting voters will forget its record.  But can political theater overcome years of rhetoric and policies that pushed millions of working Americans away? The latest attempts to win back the white working class may reveal more about Democrat elites than the voters they're trying to persuade.

Iran has spent weeks delaying, provoking, and negotiating while avoiding a final resolution.  Victor Davis Hanson examines why Tehran may be trying to buy time, how rising energy prices are affecting the U.S. economy, and why President Trump faces growing pressure to resolve the standoff before the midterm elections. As tensions continue in the Strait of Hormuz, Israel, Kuwait, and the Gulf states, Hanson explains the choices facing the Trump administration and what could happen if Iran refuses to comply with U.S. demands.

California has transformed into a single-party monopoly where the legislative, executive, and judicial branches actively subvert the will of the voters. Through lax voting laws, ballot harvesting, and a lack of voter identification requirements, the state has institutionalized a system where early conservative leads are routinely erased weeks after Election Day.  The controversy surrounding Spencer Pratt, Nithya Raman, and the Los Angeles mayoral race is connected to a broader pattern that crushes democracy every time, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” 

June 6, 1944, was more than a beach landing. It was the opening blow that helped break Nazi Germany and secure American hegemony for decades to come. We owe so much to the brave men who charged into gunfire that day, knowing quite well their last actions would be in defense of their country.

The US-Iran-Israel war is reshaping the Middle East in real time — and most people have no idea what's actually happening. Jillian Michaels sits down with military historian and geopolitical strategist Victor Davis Hanson for an unfiltered breakdown of the crisis. Iran is threatening the Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices are spiking. Hezbollah is escalating. And Donald Trump is under fire from Congress, the media, and fractures inside his own coalition. The window to prevent a wider regional war is closing fast. Is Iran capable of backing down — or is regime collapse inevitable? Has Trump strengthened or undermined American deterrence? And are we watching the beginning of World War 3 — or the final chapter of the Iranian regime? Victor Davis Hanson breaks it all down: Trump's Iran strategy — is it working? Iran's nuclear program and the enrichment red line Why Gulf States are quietly aligning with Israel The Israel-Hezbollah escalation timeline The conservative foreign policy civil war — Tucker vs. the hawks China and Russia's role in the crisis Campus radicalization and the mainstreaming of anti-Semitism Whether America can avoid another endless war This isn't punditry. This is the history, the military calculus, and the geopolitical architecture that will define the next decade. #VictorDavisHanson #IranWar #Trump #IsraelIran #MiddleEast #WorldWar3 #IranNuclear #Hezbollah #Netanyahu #Geopolitics #ForeignPolicy #Trump2026 #OilPrices #China #Russia #TuckerCarlson #MegynKelly #AntiSemitism #Israel #MilitaryHistory CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 02:45 War Powers Act Showdown 04:50 Iran's Economy in Freefall 07:45 How Modern Warfare Actually Works 11:11 Will the Iranian Regime Survive? 15:55 The Trump-Netanyahu Leaked Call 19:45 Drone Warfare Is Rewriting the Rules 22:20 Gulf States Quietly Pick a Side 26:00 Europe's Deterrence Is Already Dead 29:00 Anti-Semitism's New Home 33:15 China and Russia: Opportunity or Alliance? 42:50 The Right Is Fracturing on Foreign Policy 50:15 How the Middle East Captured American Academia 54:40 The Progressive Media Bubble 59:21 What "Neocon" Actually Means 01:03:40 The Human Rights Hypocrisy Nobody Talks About 01:07:35 Why Trump's Political Comeback Is Bulletproof Learn more about your ad choices.

The facts are not in dispute. Henry Nowak, a young university student was talking home one night when a 23-year-old Sikh immigrant stabbed him in the chest several times with a “ceremonial blade.” Vickrum Digwa, the killer, told police that Nowak had racially assaulted him. This was a lie. The police handcuffed Nowak, leaving him to bleed out in front of them. "Mr. Nowak, unlike George Floyd, was not a career criminal. He was not being handcuffed because he was passing counterfeit currency and high on fentanyl and resisting arrest as Mr. Floyd was. It's far more egregious for police to handcuff a man bleeding on the ground than to use a standard approved measure to restrain a suspect that was resisting arrest that went south when he stopped breathing.  What was the reaction? The United States blew up for four months.  What was the reaction in Britain to Mr. Nowak? Silence," argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

This week, the infamous, much-too-organized anti-ICE protesters have made their way to Delaney Hall Newark Federal Detention Center, and it's just what you would expect. Their state-of-the-art inhalers, tents, and endless supply of food is almost laughable. At least look like you aren't funded by dark money Left-wing foundations.  But maybe some of their time in prison will teach them what the word “illegal” means.

Iran is negotiating peace in public while secretly running oil through a shadow fleet to China — and according to multiple senior analysts, the Trump administration knows exactly what's happening. The question isn't whether Iran is lying. It's why we're still at the table. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down Iran's psychological warfare playbook: a calculated "good cop / bad cop" strategy designed to run out the clock, drain U.S. political capital before the midterms, and treat every day they survive as a victory over the world's greatest superpower. In this episode: Why Iran considers lying to the infidel a religious sacrament — not a negotiating tactic The China "dark fleet": 90 million barrels of Iranian oil secretly transferred ship-to-ship, repainted, and shipped to Beijing Why Trump may be letting it happen — and what it costs us Oil prices and why an Exxon VP is warning of a $150/barrel spike within weeks Hezbollah firing 50 rockets into Israel while demanding a ceasefire as a precondition for talks Israel's new net-based drone defense against Chinese-supplied thermal weapons What a passage in Revelation says about kings sitting at tables — both lying — that sounds exactly like today's headlines This isn't commentary.

‘Experiment'California was the most beautiful state in the country until left-wing politicians took over the state and claimed it for their progressive experiment. More than 11 million Californians have fled, unable to shoulder the burden of record-breaking gas prices, homelessness, expansive welfare programs, and a failing education system. The solution? Cut taxes, clean up homelessness, cooperate with law enforcement, increase oil development, and tackle voter fraud. Californians may have a chance at returning to paradise if they show up at the polls, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words

The far left has enjoyed one-party rule in the City of Angels for decades, but now there's a slight wrinkle in their plans as Los Angeles might finally get its first non-left mayor in years this Tuesday. Spencer Pratt, the nominally conservative former reality TV star turned political activist, is currently trailing by less than five points behind incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and is even closer to current City Councilwoman Nithya Raman, according to recent polling by UC Berkeley/The Los Angeles Times. Why? Twofold: Two far-left candidates may split the vote, and Pratt, for all the grief the Left bestows upon him, is not really identifiable as a MAGA Republican—the thing Los Angeles voters hate most—argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.

The global Left's relentless obsession with condemning Israel completely vanishes when actual ethnic cleansing and brutal massacres occur across the rest of the world. From the historical atrocities of the French in Chad to the modern-day actions of Turkey and Iran, the international community consistently ignores massive human rights abuses to focus entirely on one tiny nation. This rampant double standard on American college campuses and within the halls of Congress exposes a deep-seated hypocrisy that defines modern anti-Semitism, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

The Democratic National Committee's now-released 2024 autopsy came with a few predictable omissions: the New Democrat Party agenda. Why? Because the Jacobin wing of the party refuses to believe that's why Democrats lost so decisively in 2024. They believed that a war on fossil fuels, open-border policies that let in 10 million-plus illegal aliens, allowing men to compete in women's sports, and the nature of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan were all great policies worth recognition, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words. “So, in conclusion, if the autopsy wanted to be accurate, it would have done this. We lost the 2024 campaign because we had a radical agenda that reflects the Jacobin neo-socialism of the new party. For us to get elected on a national basis, we have to hide that agenda.”

Both legal immigrants, when they arrive in this fully developed 250-year-old nation, as well as America's youth, need to ask themselves why the United States is the oldest and most successful constitutional republic in the world today. The Answer? From time to time in its 250-year history, America's youth have gone overseas and made the ultimate sacrifice, argues Victor Davis Hanson on this Memorial Day special for Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.

Victor Davis Hanson, Mark Levin. Iran Will Violate Any Nuclear Deal — Here's Why, Voter fraud FOUND in Georgia AND Arizona, Why America Keeps Proving the Experts Wrong   Victor Davis Hanson: Why America Keeps Proving the Experts Wrong Mark Levin Show- Iran Will Violate Any Nuclear Deal — Here's Why Voter fraud FOUND in Georgia AND Arizona   Iran Will Violate Any Nuclear Deal — Here's Why On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, when we suddenly hit the brakes and called off the planned military operation against the Iranian regime, it was clear that something was going on. We gave the regime 2-3 days to come to some arrangement that presumably includes no nukes. What does no nukes mean? The regime is a borderless religious extremist cult that has repeatedly cheated on agreements and seeks conquest, not coexistence. The core concern is the lack of credible nuclear enforcement because the regime will violate any deal and that future U.S. leaders may lack the political will to respond. Also, the truth about war powers. No president, of either party, has accepted the constitutionality of the 1973 War Powers Act. The Supreme Court has never ruled on the Act's constitutionality and likely never will. The only power Congress has to prevent a military operation is the power of the purse. A president has broad power to take military action. Later, in breaking news Ed Gallrein defeats Rep Thomas Massie in the Kentucky House primary, after Massie tried to win votes by blaming Jews and the Israeli lobby. Mark Levin Podcast  May 19 2026     Victor Davis Hanson: Why America Keeps Proving the Experts Wrong We've heard this story before. From Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union to Japan and the European Union, Americans have repeatedly been told another world power was about to overtake the U.S. America is still leading the world in energy, agriculture, military strength, higher education, and innovation, and today's fears about a rising China are part of a much older pattern of American decline narratives, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/YTjWu0yYfTY?si=RirZMBdaru8wGioj The Daily Signal  and Victor Davis Hanson   306,253 views May 19, 2026 Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words

Left-wing candidates across the country are refusing to run on their actual records because they know the American people reject their failed policies.  Instead of offering a positive agenda, they rely entirely on personal attacks against Donald Trump and a desperate scheme to rig the system, like court packing and redrawing congressional maps in states like Virginia, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Trump just sat across from Xi Jinping holding more leverage than any American president in 40 years — and what he said next has the spin machines scrambling. "They want help. We don't need help." Victor Davis Hanson breaks down why Trump's refusal to bargain may have just changed the entire game. Lance Wallnau pulls back the curtain on what really happened in China — plus the behind-the-scenes story from America's 250th rededication that mainstream media is desperate to bury. Did Trump just outplay the entire CCP without firing a shot? Lance unpacks Trump's Bret Baier and Hannity interviews, the Panama-Venezuela-Cuba-Greenland chessboard Trump is quietly clearing of Chinese influence, the Putin-Xi meeting happening right now, and the U.S./Nigerian military strike that killed Abu Bilal al-Munuki — the #2 ISIS leader globally — for the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria. Then — the story almost nobody is telling about May 17. Was America's 250th rededication actually a hinge of history moment? In this episode: • Victor Davis Hanson on why Trump holds the upper hand against China • Trump's "no quid pro quo" doctrine and what it means for Iran • How Trump pushed China out of Panama, Venezuela — and now Cuba • The Putin-Xi meeting and Trump's quiet offer to flip Russia • The U.S./Nigerian strike that killed ISIS's #2 commander for hunting Christians • The man who gave up his 6 minutes on the National Mall so Lou Engel and Dutch Sheets could speak • Paula White's quiet stand against interfaith dilution at the 250th • Trump personally reading 2 Chronicles 7:14 — "If my people..." • Why the New York Times and Sojourners are in full panic over a Christian rededication This wasn't a normal week. This is the kind of week historians look back on as the turning point — if we don't miss it.

“We're anti-rape. The horrific abuse inflicted on Israeli women on Oct. 7 now happens to Palestinians day after day after day,” says Nicholas Kristof, an opinion writer with The New York Times. This month, Kristof published a piece titled “The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians,” where he alleges that the Israeli military used dogs to rape inmates. That is the biggest blood libel and slur against the Jewish people that I've ever heard. And yet, The New York Times, which always brags about fact-checking, didn't fact-check it at all, Victor Davis Hanson argues on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

We've heard this story before. From Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union to Japan and the European Union, Americans have repeatedly been told another world power was about to overtake the U.S. America is still leading the world in energy, agriculture, military strength, higher education, and innovation, and today's fears about a rising China are part of a much older pattern of American decline narratives, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” 

Chinese officials increasingly warn about the so-called “Thucydides Trap,” the idea that a rising China and an established United States are destined for war. But the historical comparison falls apart under closer examination.  From ancient Athens and Sparta to modern America and China, Hanson breaks down why the analogy is flawed, why the United States is not a declining power, and why China may be facing deeper long term problems than many in the West are willing to admit.   Despite endless predictions of American decline, the United States still leads China in energy production, military power, food security, technological dominance, alliances, and economic productivity, while China faces mounting problems with demographics, debt, energy dependence, and slowing growth, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” 

There has been a growing effort by commentators, podcasters, and public figures to recast Islam and the Muslim world in a more favorable light while increasingly directing criticism toward Israel. From 9/11, the USS Cole bombing, the Beirut barracks attack, Fort Hood, San Bernardino, and the Boston Marathon bombing to the war in Gaza, many in the West are ignoring decades of Islamic terrorism and adopting a new political framework rooted in anti-Israel sentiment, identity politics, and cultural revisionism. Some commentators have even gone so far as to argue that Iran should possess a nuclear weapon to create “balance” with Israel, despite repeated threats from Iranian leaders calling for the destruction of the Jewish state, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Amid the 2026 California gubernatorial race and the Los Angeles mayoral election, Democratic candidates seem determined to talk about anything except the problems facing the Golden State—an inadequate government response to the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, the highest income and gas taxes in the nation, and record-breaking homelessness.

Amid the 2026 California gubernatorial race and the Los Angeles mayoral election, Democratic candidates seem determined to talk about anything except the problems facing the Golden State—an inadequate government response to the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, the highest income and gas taxes in the nation, and record-breaking homelessness. Why? For nearly two decades, Democrats have controlled almost every major center of power in California: the governor's office, the state Legislature, and the state Supreme Court. There is no one else to blame but themselves, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Antisemitism is on the rise not just global but also here in the United States. Why? DEI instruction, open borders, and a less democratic Democrat Party. All told, President Donald Trump remains the final bulwark against a rising tide of globalist and anti-Western sentiment, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Tehran is currently banking on the hope that the United States will buckle under economic pressure, yet their strategy ignores the reality of a commander-in-chief focused on decisive negotiation rather than retreat. While the Iranian regime attempts to shield itself behind threats to Gulf oil and water supplies, internal power struggles between the IRGC and a fractured military suggest a government in total disarray, argues Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

The traditional Democrat Party of the last century has been systematically replaced by a radical Jacobin movement that seeks the fundamental transformation of Western civilization. This new faction mirrors the French Revolution's extremists by toppling statues, weaponizing race through DEI, and showing open disdain for national borders. From billionaire socialists to the rejection of law and order, the modern Left has abandoned the working class in favor of a revolutionary agenda that endangers the very foundations of the American Republic, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

The Democratic Party is facing a significant electoral crisis as population shifts from blue to red states fundamentally alter the balance of power in the House of Representatives. Recent legal rulings against racial gerrymandering and declining fertility rates in progressive hubs further threaten the long-term viability of the current liberal coalition. As their traditional platform fails to secure a majority, leadership has turned toward radical structural changes to the American governing system to maintain influence.“ There were some recent studies by various pollsters about what would happen if all of the states decided to engage in redistricting, gerrymandering, based on the relative control of the state legislatures. “And it came up with a very surprising result: If the Republican red states, or purple states that have Republican majorities, decided to redistrict and Democrats did the same, an all-out war, there would be about 262 Republicans and only 173 Democratic seats,” points out Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

The standoff with Iran has reached a critical tipping point, and the regime's desperate stall tactics are proving no match for America's crippling economic blockades. While radical Democrats cross their fingers for a domestic recession or a midterm-wrecking oil crisis, Donald Trump holds the ultimate trump card in the Strait of Hormuz. The clock is ticking on Tehran's revolutionary theatrics, and the United States military is perfectly positioned to shut down their terror subsidies once and for all, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words:”

Former FBI Director James Comey is under the microscope again, this time hiding behind a ridiculous "seashell" defense after allegedly posting a veiled threat against Donald Trump. While the legacy media rushes to dismiss the "86/47" beach message as a harmless coincidence, Comey's long record of selective amnesia and partisan leaks tells a much darker story. From orchestrating the Russia collusion hoax to shielding Hillary Clinton's illegal homebrew servers, this latest stunt highlights the sheer arrogance of a thoroughly weaponized justice system.  It is past time to hold the architects of the Deep State accountable for years of lying to Congress and betraying the American people, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Despite claims the war is failing, Iran is facing massive economic losses, dwindling oil capacity, and a military that's effectively been neutralized. “It's not a military problem… the military problem has been solved.” What remains is a political decision about how far to go. But the bigger story is the ripple effect. From a potential breakdown of OPEC and falling oil prices, to China being deterred and Russia stretched thin, the global balance is already shifting. Even Europe's response is called into question as the U.S. continues to demonstrate overwhelming strategic leverage. In his words, “Iran is broke,” and the consequences are already spreading far beyond the region, argues Victor Davis Hanson.

This violent escalation is the terrifying, direct result of Marxist influencers championing "social murder" and turning actual criminals into woke folk heroes. Unless the Left finally abandons its relentless campaign of Trump Derangement Syndrome and stops glorifying political violence, this lethal echo chamber will only continue to radicalize the unstable, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words:” “Obviously, Cole Thomas Allen is unhinged.

But what he wrote as an exegesis of why he was doing it is an encapsulation of ideology that's promulgated by today's Left.”   Watch this video at https://youtu.be/kasA1yhboVQ?si=tKXuoNiu2y-Pe_wk The Daily Signal 1.1M subscribers Apr 28, 2026 Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words

Eight weeks into the Iran war, the regime is seriously fractured. Power is divided, internal factions are competing, and the pressure from economic and military constraints is beginning to take its toll. With sanctions, blockades, and internal instability mounting, the question is no longer if Iran is weakening, but how long it can hold together before an inevitable collapse. As the situation develops, decisions made now could determine whether this conflict ends decisively or drags on, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words:”

The unhinged manifesto of the recent would-be White House Correspondents' Dinner assassin is nothing more than a regurgitated checklist of the radical Left's favorite lies and dangerous conspiracy theories. From thoroughly debunked Russia collusion hoaxes to entirely fabricated accusations regarding the border, the shooter's twisted justifications prove exactly how poisonous mainstream media rhetoric has become. This violent escalation is the terrifying, direct result of Marxist influencers championing "social murder" and turning actual criminals into woke folk heroes. Unless the Left finally abandons its relentless campaign of Trump Derangement Syndrome and stops glorifying political violence, this lethal echo chamber will only continue to radicalize the unstable, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words:” “Obviously, Cole Thomas Allen is unhinged.

No president in U.S. history has been the target of three assassination attempts in which shots were fired by either law enforcement or the shooter himself. And yet this is Trump's third time. Political violence doesn't happen overnight. For almost a decade now, the Left has reified the idea that 1. Trump is “literally Hitler” and 2. that harming him is justified—Gavin Newsom and Robert De Niro talked about hitting Trump in the mouth. Shakespeare in the Park substituted Caesar for a Trump look-alike. Anthony Bourdain said he'd poison him. And that lowers the bar. And that means people like Cole Tomas Allen come out of the woodwork, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
