How did a city once attacked by Islamic terrorists elect an islamist mayor 25 years later?

Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc explore the changing political ideologies from 2001 to 2026 in the context of the 25th anniversary of 9/11. They also discuss the shocking explanations of why the majority of Lindsey Clancy's jurors refused to believe she should be imprisoned for strangling her three children.

Socialists are going to school for gender studies - and finding out that doesn’t pay in the real world.

In today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler examine Iran’s attacks, Ukraine’s drone war, and Marco Rubio’s warning about left-wing violence.

Hanson discusses the Democratic Party’s socialist agenda, arguing that many of its leading figures come from wealthy or privileged backgrounds while using race and class politics to divide Americans. They also discuss the Left’s educational priorities, arguing that lowering academic standards and steering students away from practical paths can ultimately hurt the very people Democrats claim to be helping.

The episode also highlights Zohran Mamdani’s threat to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu, antisemitism, and Netanyahu’s record as Israel’s prime minister. They also close with a discussion of “Black English” and whether lowering language standards helps students succeed.

Rhamell Burke, a repeat criminal, attacked and later stalked two women on the New York City subway last April.

Though police stopped Burke from harassing the women any further, the victims ultimately decided not to cooperate with prosecutors, with one woman telling the New York Post later, “maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail.” It was a decision she ultimately regretted after Burke, about one month later, allegedly pushed a retired school teacher onto the subway tracks, leading to the 76-year-old’s death.

“ Well, I mean, it's toxic empathy, isn't it—that it gets people killed. It serves the ego of the so-called enlightened, but the consequences fall on people that can't defend themselves,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.

ALSO:

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler reflect on California’s decline, highlighting Los Angeles mayoral debate fallout as Karen Bass withdraws and Nithya Raman reverses on defunding police while Spencer Pratt gains traction.

Hanson ties LA’s disorder, wildfire failures, DEI-driven omissions, and Gavin Newsom’s long record in office to outmigration and fiscal strain, noting California’s $503B adjusted gross income loss and a projected $15–$20B deficit amid fraud and welfare concerns.

They discuss New York’s subway killing by a repeat offender, arguing “toxic empathy” and lax enforcement endanger the public. Hanson predicts communities will form local “cocoons,” rebukes AOC’s claims about billionaires and America’s founding, and assesses Trump’s China trip and leverage amid the Iran war and shifting geopolitics.

I challenge you, Tucker. I want you to say “Victor Hanson said that nuclear weapons are glorious.”

I did not say that.
The atomic bombs were a bad thing that good people used to prevent bad people from doing greater evil.

We lost 12,000 soldiers during the battle of Okinawa. If you extrapolated those casualty figures for the Japanese mainland, it would've cost a million casualties, argues Victor Davis Hanson on this week’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

Today, Fauci disgraced himself, the country, and the millions of Americans who suffered through his COVID-19 lockdowns. Despite invoking the Fifth Amendment over 100 times, Fauci’s silence on his handling of the pandemic speaks volumes.

The committee will soon vote on whether to hold Fauci in contempt.

There might not be “a whole [Epstein] list” like U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have said.

Victor Davis Hanson returns for another episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” where he explains why he thinks Jeffrey Epstein “was too clever” to ever leave behind “a notebook” or “incriminating tapes with sex.”

“I don’t think he had anything. And I don’t think that [Donald] Trump will pardon [Ghislaine] Maxwell. I think she’s going to sit there [prison] the rest of her life.”

Additionally, Hanson weighs in on the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, the missing 84-year-old mother of NBC host Savannah Guthrie, as well as the Winter Olympics taking place in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.

The disease of Democrat Socialism is slowly spreading throughout three groups of people: urban consumers, immigrants, and DEI advocates.

Their symptoms and agenda include everything antithetical to traditional American policy: open borders, amnesty for illegal immigration, and the conflation of citizenship with mere residency.

Their methodology is to run in select blue cities in local elections, giving them a chance to out-fund and out-perform the Democrats. And if they do that well, socialism could spread to the entire Democrat Party.

Socialists can’t afford to create a third party, so they’re simply taking over another.

This clip centers on a Stanford-educated classics scholar who became a farmer and explains how farming shaped his worldview through risk, uncertainty, tradition, and consequences. He also opens up about the emotional toll of farming, generational loss, financial pressure, and the tragedies his family and community experienced.

Kamala Harris floats “no bad ideas” proposals like abolishing the Electoral College and packing the Supreme Court.

Democrats only attack rules when out of power, argue Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

They connect these trends to broader left-wing efforts to change American institutions, describing Democrats as adolescent and grift-prone, and cite episodes of fraud and hostility toward law enforcement, including Democrats voting against a pro-police resolution.

Hanson warns of rising antisemitism on the Left, faults Barack Obama and Democrat leaders for silence, and argues authoritarian impulses come from protected elites rather than Trump.

The episode also condemns Stephen Colbert and David Letterman’s on-air property destruction, mocks DEI-driven “whiteness” rhetoric from an Iowa candidate, and closes with reflections on classic war films and Memorial Day programming.
