Good afternoon, Dr Hanson. I have to tell you I listen to you a lot because you have a soothing style even when delivering bad news. I generally agree with you, but I'm arguing with a lot of people over 14A and birthright citizenship. I'm not at all in favor of illegal immigration and I'd do birthright different if it was up to me. The issue with 14A is the word "jurisdiction"; our system makes a big deal of our jurisdiction. Out of space here; I'll get a membership and get back to you.
Good morning, Dr Hanson. Watching you talk about California infrastructure breaks my heart. We all know none of those Democrat politicians will take your tour of their failures; they do not care. As long as they draw a government paycheck, they will continue to ruin everything they touch because that's all they know how to do. I think there is a shadow mandate from the DNC to destroy the country; they are after Communism so they can stay in power unopposed. very good show today. Thank you.
Haven't had a chance to listen; I'm out to bury a puppy. You've buried dogs and we're the same age. Not sure there's many 18" x 30" x 36" holes in rocky calechi left in me, but I'll get this one done. Perhaps you could talk about this a little more; how many even bother buying a pet these days? As always, love your work.
Hello, Dr Hanson. I'm watching this video and loving it. I posted it on Facebook because I'm getting so much flack I needed an unimpeachable source to show I know what's going on; you're the man! I'm not much of a bucket list guy, but if I were, meeting you would be on it. just saying. You make me regret that I passed up a classical education to be a guitar player; I had no idea what the language and philosophy programs would have done for me. I try to conjugate Latin, but I suck at it, lol. TY!
I'm sorry; this is important to me and I'm nobody. So I'm telling you my experiences; perhaps there is something you can use?
They got away with it in the 90s. I could not get an attorney, law firm, even the ACLU wouldn't have anything to do with it and this was before the Dems flipped out. The entire governance of this country is so far out of true, can we ever get it back? It's rotten from DC and the Swamp to downtown USA and clear out in the sticks. You mentioned the Forest Circus; they'll deny a conservation cut in favor of a clear cut; take all the trees and leave the soil to run into the creek and flood the area.
Hello, Dr Hanson. Great show. Lawfare in South Dakota? Moved back to my home town in the 90s, Rapid City SD. Had a little money, started an auto repair shop and a country band that played local clubs. Police Chief and I had a 20-year-old incident he came out wrong on, and after I bought a house, opened the businesses, did all the tax and whatever, he had his IRS agent wife audit me. This was so out of the ordinary a supervisor took over. I won, but in 6 years, they ran me out with nothing left.
I use your podcasts to back up the things I say in FB, X, and Truth. Thank you.
I should say hello even though I have nothing to contribute right now. I'm using your lectures and podcasts as "evidence" for things I write. Funny thing is that nobody ever challenges you. As an arrogant egotistical sloppy person, I find that impressive. Carry on, my friend. KBV
I heard it was 80 Wagner Group mercenaries killed in Syria, not 400. They were somewhat renegade, so there was no international event. I'm really enjoying your lecture, and you are spot on about everything else. I've looked pretty hard, and the most common number I've seen is 80. Thinking 400 would have been a bit more serious is all. Enemy casualties are always overstated; remember the war. Very good lecture; my wife and I have become VDH aficionados; we never miss an episode. Thank you.
When did Asgardians start needing flu shots, Skelator, dear friend? I've been watching and listening so much it feels like I know you. Your points are always spot-on and your delivery is nothing short of brilliant. Would that I'd grown up in an academic environment; we might have met. I turned to music and didn't learn the classic languages; classic music is as tough a language as I ever want to try, lol. Especially when it's all self-taught and then you got the education. Cheers!
I had a flu shot last September. Stay well Viktor 🙏 ✨️ ☺️ 😘
AGAPE.
AMERICA. American First Patriots. Ivory Melancholy. Quality.
Is Pelosi having an ice cream 🍦 🤔 party..
70 + % $= Majority. Win/WIN.
Patton and Churchill would have been with Zelensky on this one. We should be thinking like them, not like Neville Chamberlain. Appeasing autocracy is a mistake. Appeasing Putin is a mistake.
Absolutely good show, Victor. 💯 ❤️
No guts, no glory.
