The recently unveiled U.S. National Security Strategy has liberal heads turning over this one priority: "Promoting European Greatness."
Europe’s problems cannot just be attributed to “insufficient military spending and economic stagnation.”
The continent is facing “civilizational erasure” should it continue to embrace practices and transnational bodies that “undermine political liberty and sovereignty, migration policies that are transforming the continent and creating strife, censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition, cratering birthrates, and loss of national identities and self-confidence,” the Trump administration writes.
The U.S.’ attitude in this report was not “you, Europe, should have done this.” It’s more like, “we should be brothers,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”
“You, Europe, is the foundation of the West. Greece. Rome. The Pope. The Renaissance. The Enlightenment. All of this majestic culture came from you. And we are an offshoot, an offspring of it. And we wanna partner with you. And we wanna be equals with you. So, please, can you just consider stopping the censorship, opening up discussion, and maybe reassessing your energy, your military, your immigration issues, and policies. And get back in the game with us in a 50/50 fashion.”

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer said the law doesn't allow the Trump administration to eliminate H-1B visas.
An H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows U.S. employers to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations.
When asked by The Daily Signal if eliminating the program—a proposal popular with the MAGA base—is a possibility, Chavez-DeRemer said "I don't think that that's really what's in the law."

1There’s a big discussion taking place in this country about immigration, and “one of the themes has been whether a person came legally or illegally,” and what their attitude toward the country they came to is.
A U.S. federal attorney recently uncovered fraud occurring in Minnesota where fraudsters in the Somali community there stole billions of dollars from American taxpayers over a period of years, and the state government did nothing to stop it.
“ There were a variety of state and local laws that were violated, but there were no prosecutions. Gov. Walz cannot explain why the feds had to step in and why he never even investigated this until the media and the Trump administration drew his attention to it. [Minnesota Attorney General] Keith Ellison allegedly has talked about expecting campaign contributions from the Somali community in some kind of quid pro quo fashion,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words:”

In an era of World War II revisionism, it’s worth remembering what really led to Japan’s surprise attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago on Dec. 7, 1941.
Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the real context behind the attack, why Japan miscalculated so badly, the myths that still distort this history, and how Pearl Harbor became the beginning of Japan’s greatest strategic blunder on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“Why did they attack? They said that they did not want to attack. They were in the process of negotiating a peace settlement. They said that we had cut off their oil exports. And we had because we had no other mechanism to convince them to get out of China, it was not their territory, to get out of Korea, to get out of Southeast Asia, and to not absorb the Dutch East Indies.
“They had refused on all of those accounts and said, yet, we will find a peaceful solution, as they planned the attack. The attack happened at seven in the morning, deliberately, on a Sunday morning when people were either at church or still asleep from Saturday night partying. And they came out of the rising sun. Two waves. And they destroyed four battleships and injured, or just—I don't wanna say injured, they were inanimate objects. But they disabled four that sunk to the shallow bottom of Pearl Harbor.”

In a recent strike on a Venezuelan drug boat, the vessel “was not completely obliterated,” requiring the U.S. military to “finish the job” with a second hit.
The Left instantly seized this as an opportunity to call it “an execution of prisoners,” saying that President Donald Trump ordered Secretary of War Pete Hegseth—“or perhaps Pete Hegseth on his own had ordered”—to “kill them all.”
Hanson breaks down the Left’s lies and the “Seditious Six’s” call to military members to “refuse illegal orders” on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“It's a deliberate effort by the Left to undermine the chain of command and ultimately, the commander in chief itself. And the irony is: All of these senators and representatives and the media are talking about unconstitutionality. What they're doing is unconstitutional.”

We’ve all heard the Democrat talking points ad nauseam—from the Epstein files to Obamacare, from Trump’s health and MRI to inflation, affordability, and Biden-era policies.
But what’s the strategy behind focusing so heavily on their GOP opponents instead of the bigger picture? Victor Davis Hanson says it’s “just an excuse for the lack of a serious agenda”—and Democrat voters don’t seem to mind. Hanson breaks down these Democrat narratives and what it means for 2026 and beyond on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“Do they say, ‘Here's my alternate plan for immigration. I want one million, two million, three million illegal. I want to go back to the Biden [administration] , two million illegal aliens a year’? No, nothing. ‘Obamacare: Here's how we're going to solve it so we don't need subsidies. A, B, C.’ Nothing.”

Ukraine is back in the headlines as President Donald Trump puts forth new peace proposals to the international community.
To make sense of where the conflict currently sits and what ending the war would entail, Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the core questions behind the conflict: Why did Putin invade? Why does Russia keep fighting? Why won’t NATO fully support Ukraine? And what will it take to end the war? All on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“What is the dispute left about? Ukraine's not gonna be in NATO. Putin knows that. All it is, where is the DMZ? Does Putin get to push areas westward that Ukraine, Ukrainians are currently in and fighting successfully and he can't dislodge, or not? So, that's what we're gonna, that's what the dispute is over, and the security guarantees.
“If Ukraine is not in NATO, how can it defend the next invasion from Russia? Well, it's the greatest military in Europe right now. It's battle-hardened. It's got a huge army. It's well supplied. Will that continue? Will the EU or NATO continue to arm it? Will the United States back them up in extremis?”

“The Chair Recognizes”
With November’s stinging election results not even a month behind the Virginia GOP, their chairman, State Sen. Mark Peake, announced that he will be stepping down.
Peake told me that he’s leaving his post at the end of December because he wanted to make sure he could devote his full effort in the Virginia Senate to defeating the redistricting referendum before it needs a special election.
He also said that the Republican Party requires a chairman who can devote a similar amount of energy to getting out the vote should it make it to a Spring special election, and beyond that, helping win whatever districts there will be come November’s midterms.
Peake stepped in after longtime chair Rich Anderson earned a post as assistant secretary of the Air Force.
Cameron Hamilton has announced that he wants the State Central Committee to consider him. Hamilton mounted a challenge for the GOP nomination in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District in 2024 and his wife Karen was just elected to Virginia’s House of Delegates from the 62nd District, succeeding the retired Nick Freitas.
Some other frontrunners for the chairmanship include current chairs of Virginia’s 1st, 5th, and 6th congressional districts. They are Jeff Ryer, Rick Buchanan, and John Massoud respectively.
Ryer has helped Rep. Rob Wittman win reelection in a very competitive district while even outperforming statewide and national Republicans. Buchanan led the 5th District through the tumultuous (and expensive) primary battle between challenger John McGuire and incumbent Rep. Bob Good. Buchanan also pulled the district together to deliver a 15% victory for McGuire in the general election.
Massoud has helped Rep. Ben Cline build a strong base that supports him at a better-than-60% clip and has also managed to withstand out-of-state money attempting to flip Virginia House 34th District where incumbent Tony Wilt survived the 2025 “blue wave.”
Would Loudon County GOP chair Scott Pio try again for the chairman position? He has been vocal on social media about the need for a change and called for Peake to step down in the wake of the Democrat sweep of the statewide races and a 14-seat “flip” in the house. He was a candidate for the position when Anderson departed and lost to Peake at the State Central Committee vote.

It’s common knowledge that good performance in midterm elections hinges on one key issue: the economy.
The Left knows this, and it knows that Trump’s economy is not only doing better than last year at this time during the Biden administration, but it’s doing better than any time in history. Victor Davis Hanson explains the strategy behind the Democrats’ attempt to distract Americans from booming growth before the 2026 midterms on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“The economy is going to boom in 2026 and the Left knows that. So, what is their strategy? Don't talk about the Trump economy. And we've seen what? Go after Tesla. Firebomb Tesla dealerships. Drive Tesla off, automobiles off the road because Elon Musk was the prince of darkness and he was involved in DOGE. Demonize DOGE. Go after ICE. Have street theater. Have riots. Call them Gestapo. Say they're worse than Hitler. Go after the National Guard that has cleaned up Washington, D.C. Encourage massive resistance. Call it illegal. Shut down the government.”

“Yes, we are a nation of immigrants.*
“*We're a nation of legal immigrants whose first mission upon arrival in America was to be a better American than a native-born American. And many millions were. I don't think that is the case now, and the fault is not just with the immigrant, it's with us,” argues Victor Davis Hanson, following a string of high-profile, immigrant-related crimes, such as the brutal shooting of two National Guardsmen blocks away from the White House and a billion-dollar fraud scheme amongst the Somali diaspora in Minneapolis, on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

@7:45 the devil is always in the details, omitted or just plain fabricated. #Hoax
@2:33 in all fairness, it's #Timpon he's retarded or just plain evil. Not sure there's an alternate excuse for his malfeasance against captive Minnesotans.
@2:16 the great orange center-left leader could have spent his recent term championing legislation that would improve the lives of Americans instead of weak out of focus EO's, and this would have eliminated the need for redistricting gimmicks. But here we are! Promises of primary challenger endorsements always of those further left that we've already seen before. The US is now unfortunately saddled with 2 leftist party's and no one to represent the moderate living #taxslaves working class.
#dimocrats
7:32 #KBJ #DEI LOL!
#dimocrats only care about dead Americans, never and how it relates to their accompanimg coup. VDH explains it well! 1:25 to the end.
Repeat of this moron again. Please don't spam my downloads. I walk away!
A nation can not survive under unfettered immigration combined with a hammock styled safety net welfare state. Many politicians are extremely well aware that this will be the demise of this nation, yet fervently support these measures? Very well done addressing the correct melting pot national strengthing assimilation vs. the disaterous bastardized national weakening salad analogy approach.
2:30 more dimocrat hyperbole creating another scandal. Standard dimocrat ball licking #presstitute reporting with the usual 'unnamed sources combined with the obligatory if true allegations'.
Merry Thanksgiving!
Sounds kinda like Victor is not sure how to address these fetishes. Can't disagree.
dimocrat rhetoric!
That rhetoric wasn't directed at service members. It was designed to implant a false idea in the minds of the electorate. The dims want the US to fall to the world gubmit. Merry Thanksgiving!
Couldn't make it through this one with the guests constant smears without providing anything but anecdotal evidence. Seems to be establishmentarian in origin and the exact type of folks that epitomize the problems with the GOP. As a side note, I'd hate to be his dog.
@6:30 seems a reasonable outcome to perps on behalf of the victims, given the offense.
Who would have thought Representatives and Senators would encourage mutiny and sedition in the armed forces. Arrest and treat them like the J6 folks. Many of them were tried for sedition.
The show opened with a MSNOW commercial? What the Hell?
Just because they weren't all convicted criminals don't mean the other arrested detainees weren't aiding and abetting by interfering with the arrests as they typically do in Chicago.
Tucker isn't the only one of the supposed conservative media darlings, who after going "independent" seemed to have had a change of heart on conservative policy after attracting the attention of specific large foreign investment influencer interests. Correlation isn't causation, but the timing of these sell outs combined with the policy pivots does warrant consideration.
we all have responsibilities with the stations that were given in life. I hope it took a realizes that he's mishandling his right now
