Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words

Joe Kent honorably served the United States during his 11 deployments to combat zones in the Middle East. Now, however, he has betrayed President Trump, the man who helped him have a political career as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center after two failed congressional campaigns, explains Victor Davis Hanson on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “He [Kent] wrote and said not only did he feel that the MAGA movement… was not being followed, but it was following Israel… So he bought right into ‘the Jews did it.’ And at that moment, a whole new world opened up for him. And he thinks that's quite a big world on the Right. It isn’t.” (00:00) Joe Kent Controversy (01:00) Show Intro and Health Update (08:30) Trumpism Iran Debate (40:59) Musk and TSA Standoff (42:30) Tax Wars and Culture Flashpoints (01:02:01)  Caesar Chavez and Closing Thoughts PROMOTIONS: 👉If Victor Davis Hanson is must-watch for you, The Signal Sitdown belongs in your feed.

In this Friday news roundup, Victor Davis Hanson argues Iran is unlikely to strike the U.S. homeland with drones but could use proxies or influenced naturalized citizens, while discussing Trump’s potential escalation options in the region and Europe’s reluctance to help despite benefiting from reduced Iranian power. The discussion then centers on Washington’s fight over a DHS-related shutdown: Hanson claims Democrats are using DHS as a pretext while aiming to damage the economy by disrupting airport security and broader DHS operations, forcing Trump to negotiate, and avoiding any discussion of ICE because parts of the party oppose deportations.  He also criticizes Democrat leaders for lacking a governing agenda beyond opposition to Trump and notes debates over voter ID legislation and threats of future prosecutions from figures like Susan Rice.

Jack Fowler and Victor Davis Hanson discuss Joe Kent’s recent resignation over opposition to military action against Iran. Hanson argues Iran’s long record of attacks and proxy warfare makes stopping now dangerous. Hanson reacts to an Al Jazeera column claiming the U.S.-Israel strategy is systematically degrading Iran’s key assets, suggesting Gulf states back the campaign out of fear Iran will hit their economies.  He then examines an NBC News poll showing Israel’s standing has fallen sharply among Democrats and warns Jewish national candidates face a hostile party climate. Hanson also links corporate flight from blue states to high taxes and governance failures, criticizes Canada’s policies, and argues weak assimilation and DEI incentives fuel anti-Americanism and criminal impunity among some immigrants and activists.

The legacy media continues to downplay recent bombing attempts and other violent incidents tied to illegal immigrants, arguing “Islamophobia” is overstated while antisemitism rises.Victor Davis Hanson, co-host of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” criticizes the 1965 immigration shift toward family-based entry, says the Left excuses illegality and anti-Americanism, and connects these trends to tribal politics.  Victor and Jack mock a proposed “supergroup” of radical big-city Democrat mayors (New York, Chicago, Boston, Oakland, Seattle, Los Angeles) amid crime, taxes, and dysfunction. Victors condemns the UK replacing Churchill on currency, defends Churchill’s wartime leadership, comments on Carrie Prejean Boller’s anti-Zionism controversy, and praises Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s “Restoring the West” initiative. “There's an impression that if you're an immigrant and you come from a hostile country, that you will come over here and we will ask nothing of you. We won't even ask you to be legal, and we won't ask you to obey our laws. “And if you act like a victim or you use violence against the state, there will be people in the United States on the left that either will contextualize or excuse your criminality, or if you're not a criminal, but you're just simply anti-American, they will laud it and think you're a member of the DEI greater brotherhood.  “Yeah.

Iran’s “chaos strategy” consists of threatening the Strait of Hormuz and striking regional targets, weighing U.S. and Israeli escalation options amid Donald Trump’s political constraints before the midterms and concerns over oil markets, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” The episode also addresses controversy over a girls’ school allegedly struck near a military base, noting uncertainty over responsibility and the likelihood of collateral damage from dispersed Iranian military sites. Hanson then turns to Cuba as a sophisticated exporter of revolutionary influence and suggests pressure without invasion. He analyzes Trump’s use of Rubio versus Vance as “good cop” dynamics and criticizes California efforts to revive racial preferences, gerrymandering, and a high school transgender track controversy. 👉America is worth preserving.

University of Texas at Austin professor and moral philosopher Prof. J. Budziszewski discusses his new book, “The Pandemic of Lunacy: How to Think Clearly When Everyone Around You Seems Crazy,” which examines 30 modern delusions and why they spread on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” ft. guest host Jack Fowler. He argues today’s irrationality is motivated, often contains a grain of truth, and metastasizes as one false premise leads to others, with social media acting as a force multiplier. The conversation covers relativism, abortion premises leading to infanticide arguments, radical individualism sliding toward authoritarianism, and debates over sex differences and the claim that men can be women. 👉America is worth preserving.

Many Americans are wary of U.S. boots on the ground in the Middle East after the Afghanistan and Iraq wars that became "endless." President Trump’s comment about possible “boots on the ground” is likely just “Art of the Deal” rhetoric, explains Victor Davis Hanson in today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”  “I think his point was that you’re never going to tell the enemy what you’re going to do.” 👉America is worth preserving.

China has created “the operating system for the globalized economy,” putting other countries at its mercy. Chris O’Dea, an adjunct fellow at the Hudson Institute, explains how China has built strategic influence through commercial shipping networks, ports, and infrastructure, potentially giving it a significant geopolitical boost over both the U.S. and the entire global economy. “China really has embargo power, and not just to one country or one product line, but they have the ability to say OK to an entire shipping line… They have to play ball with China because they need to get to China and Chinese ports.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Pennsylvania is “tied to the American story.” It’s the state that gave power to both the first and second industrial revolutions, saved the union at Gettysburg, and hosted the Constitutional convention. In this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” guest host Jack Fowler speaks with Andrew Lewis, Iraq war veteran and president of the Commonwealth Foundation, about why Pennsylvania matters nationally and how state-based think tanks turn free-market ideas into laws. Lewis highlights Pennsylvania’s historic role, its position atop the Marcellus and Utica Shale, and the opportunities from being a major electricity exporter, while warning that renewable mandates can threaten grid reliability and affordability, citing New York’s higher costs and Spain’s blackout. He critiques Governor Josh Shapiro’s “Lightning” plan to raise renewable requirements and discusses Commonwealth’s policy focus areas, including energy, taxes and spending, regulatory reform, and union reform.  We hope you enjoy! 👉America is worth preserving.

In the early hours of Saturday, Feb. 28, the United States, at the direction of President Donald Trump, and in close coordination with Israeli allies, initiated Operation Epic Fury against the Iranian regime. Within 24 hours, more than 1,000 sites were hit and the supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, was dead following an Israeli strike in Tehran, the capital.

Donald Trump’s first State of the Union speech of his second term was long as it was a ‘good slice of Americana,’ argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” with Sami Winc. The images of Democrats sinking into their chairs as Trump praised the USA Men’s Hockey Team and memorialized the horrific murder to Iryna Zarutska further showed the nation that the party of FDR and Clinton is now occupied by such “a sad group of people” with contorted faces. 👉America is worth preserving.

Is your white privilege giving you anxiety? Obviously, no. But for America’s mental health professionals, the answer is increasingly becoming “yes.” “Activist therapists,” Andrew Hartz, Ph.D., founder, president, and executive director of the Open Therapy Institute, are products of a culture that puts race at the center of nearly therapy sessions, and liken whiteness to a "parasitic condition.”Dr. Hartz joins today’s “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” (alas, no Victor) to discuss the sharp politicization of clinical psychology training and the implications it’s having on the wellbeing of everyday Americans. 👉America is worth preserving.

Education is “inherently a historical project” because it’s the generational passing down of culture.  This “transmission of culture,” or classical liberal education, has been eroded over the past century, however, explains Andrew Zwerneman, president of Cana Academy, when he joined Jack Fowler on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “The first major assault came with the progressivist movement which increasingly divorced education from religion and increasingly made education a matter of utility. So students weren’t learning what they had inherited. They were learning for the immediate problem before them.” 👉America is worth preserving.

Sports is the “public arena of the difference of the sexes,” so it’s crucial “to assert biological reality,” especially in an era where biological men have been allowed to compete in women’s sports.   With women comprising “50% of the population,” celebrating “what women are capable of, independent of men,” is important, explains Kim Jones, co-founder of the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, when she joined Jack Fowler on today’s episode of “Victor Davis: In His Own Words.” “We do not have to be afraid to call men or to point out where something is wrong or where women’s rights are impacted. It’s a 90–10 issue. The small number on the other side are very loud, but as soon as we shed that fear and stand on the truth, the culture shifts.” 👉Go to My Patriot Supply to see exclusive offers!
