Victor Davis Hanson: The Truth About October 7, Three Years Later
Video: The Daily Signal
Three years after the October 7 massacre, Victor Davis Hanson looks back at the attack on Israel, Hamas’ preparations for war, and the response that followed.
He breaks down the scale of the assault, the hostages taken, the thousands of rockets fired at Israeli civilians, and the billions of dollars in aid Hamas diverted toward weapons and an enormous tunnel network.
Hanson also asks why so much of the West turned against Israel almost immediately after the attack, and why Israel is now so often portrayed as the aggressor rather than the country that was attacked.

France is facing growing unrest as Europe struggles with mass immigration, failed assimilation, shrinking populations, economic
stagnation, and an increasingly frustrated electorate.
Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler examine the upheaval in France, the political backlash taking shape across Europe, and why the continent may be approaching a major turning point. They also look at the surprising resurgence of Catholicism in France and whether a broader cultural counterrevolution is beginning to emerge.
With many of the same pressures already appearing in the United States, Europe’s crisis may offer a warning of what comes next in America

Victor Davis Hanson: Ireland’s Anti-Israel Double Standard
Video: The Daily Signal
Ireland has aggressively condemned Israel while largely ignoring the atrocities of Oct. 7. Its support for boycotts and refusal to acknowledge what Israel faced after the massacre raises a simple question: Why is Ireland so quick to condemn Israel while ignoring the actions that led to the war?
“They never say, ‘What would you do?’”

Victor Davis Hanson: Iran’s Biggest Threat May Be Coming From Within
Video: The Daily Signal
For all you people who are worried and have sworn the war is lost, Robert Kagan, the whole left-wing media, what are you going to say when the people rise up?
Victor Davis Hanson argues that mounting internal dissent, military pressure and Iran’s search for an agreement could leave the regime with increasingly few ways out.
He also contends that many Western critics will be reluctant to credit Trump’s strategy if Iran’s government ultimately collapses or is forced into major concessions.
“I’m sure they’re all going to say that when the people overthrow this government or this government dissolves, that it had nothing to do with Donald Trump. It had to do with their criticism of Donald Trump,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson: They Fled Failed Countries—Just to Criticize America?
Video: The Daily Signal
Victor Davis Hanson takes on Zohran Mamdani, Hasan Piker, and Ilhan Omar over a glaring double standard in their attacks on America.
They condemn the United States and Israel over colonialism, inequality, oppression, and war—but rarely apply that same scrutiny to Uganda, Turkey, Somalia, and the countries they or their families came from.
Hanson’s message is simple: before condemning America, look in the mirror

Victor Davis Hanson: Are We on the Edge of an Economic Boom?
Video: The Daily Signal
Republicans risk repeating George H.W. Bush’s 1992 mistake by allowing Democrats to define a strengthening economy as a crisis, particularly on affordability.
For months now, Democrats have been screaming to the heavens how unaffordable it is to live a comfortable life here in the United States.
But when you actually look at what’s happened, it’s not true.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta reports that in the third quarter, the economy will have grown by 5% GDP.
We just had 160,000 new jobs. New jobs were created in the month of August. The unemployment rate is only 4.2%.

Victor Davis Hanson: Why Is Mark Carney Preparing for an American Invasion?
Video: The Daily Signal
Mark Carney is escalating tensions with the United States, raising the possibility of an American invasion while looking to China and the European Union as alternatives to Canada’s traditional relationship with its closest ally.
Victor Davis Hanson argues that Canada remains deeply dependent on the United States for trade, defense, and economic stability, and that turning away from that relationship will not solve the country’s larger problems. He also looks at Canada’s immigration, energy, defense, and economic policies and how its leaders brought the country to this point

Victor Davis Hanson: If Iran Cracks, the World Will Never Be the Same
Video: The Daily Signal
Iran sits at the center of a rapidly changing global order as military and economic pressure continues to build on the regime. A collapse in Tehran could transform the Middle East and represent one of the most consequential geopolitical shifts since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Beyond Iran, major changes are unfolding across Russia, China, Latin America, Greenland, and the wider Middle East as the balance of global power continues to shift

Victor Davis Hanson on California’s Political Future & The UN’s Hypocrisy
Video: The Daily Signal
Wealthy and middle-class Californians are fleeing the state while the only solution Democrats present is a social welfare campaign run from their basement.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu calls out the hypocrisy of European and Third World delegations who lecture democracy but never practice it.
“I don’t know why a person would come from India or China or Latin America and come here and then have all these grievances against the existing California establishment, but they do. And it’s just not going to work. It’s a medieval state with very wealthy people and very poor people. The middle class and the upper-middle class are leaving.”

Victor Davis Hanson: “This Will Happen Here” — Europe’s Immigration Backlash Is Coming to America
Video: The Daily Signal
In this discussion, Victor Davis Hanson examines Europe’s growing political and cultural debate over immigration, integration, identity, and the future of the political left. The conversation looks at how immigration-related tensions, public reactions, welfare concerns, and changing political attitudes may be reshaping elections and political movements across Europe.
The discussion then expands into the United States, focusing on immigration, racial and ethnic identity, DEI, tribalism, political polarization, and tensions between different communities. Hanson argues that emphasizing group identity can deepen divisions rather than strengthen social cohesion.
The conversation also covers the legacy of 9/11 and October 7, debates surrounding terrorism, Israel and Gaza, political narratives, conspiracy theories, and disagreements over how major events are remembered and interpreted.
The discussion concludes with a debate surrounding education, privilege, school choice, and Nicole Hannah-Jones’ decision to send her daughter to a predominantly low-income school, alongside Hanson’s personal experiences growing up and attending a predominantly Hispanic school

Victor Davis Hanson: The Dangerous Politics of Race and Tribalism
Video: The Daily Signal
Tribalism is growing in America and weakening assimilation, unity, and a shared national identity. Social media is accelerating racial and cultural tensions, while DEI, affirmative action, and government policies have deepened division and reinforced identity-based politics.
The melting pot is breaking down as more people are defined by race, ethnicity, and religion rather than those differences being treated as incidental

Victor Davis Hanson: A Midterm Election Update

With five weeks to go before the midterm elections, the races remain uncertain. Current polling shows Democrats with an advantage in several key contests, but questions remain about polling accuracy, campaign spending, redistricting and the records of individual candidates. Key Senate races in Michigan, Maine, Minnesota, Texas, Iowa and Kansas remain competitive, while developments in Iran, gas prices and the broader economy could further reshape the election landscape in the final weeks

Elon Musk’s influence stretches far beyond Tesla. From SpaceX and Starlink to X, artificial intelligence, electric vehicles, and America’s return to dominance in space, Musk’s companies have become major players in some of the most consequential technologies of the modern era.
Despite years of controversy and predictions of his decline, Musk’s technological footprint continues to expand—helping reshape American industry, communications, transportation, and space exploration

Victor Davis Hanson: Iran Is Preparing an October Surprise Before the Midterms
Video: The Daily Signal
The midterms are about 50 days away, and Democrats continue to search for ways to gain back control of the House and Senate. Their answer may come from the conflict in Iran.
Iran is most likely planning an October surprise of their own to shock Americans and hurt Republicans in the November elections.
Democrats are all for it. But will that surprise be enough to give Democrats control of Congress until the end of Trump’s second term?

Victor Davis Hanson: Canada, You Are Headed In a Disastrous EU Direction
Video: The Daily Signal
America has a history of making life easy for Canada. We protect their continent, we let them get work permits in the U.S., we let them invest in our country. Even two of their prime minister’s children live here.
So what’s with all the hostility, Canada? America just wants to play fair, and Canada is running to the one country known for anything but fairness: China.
“[China] has no respect for people who ask to be partners of China that are not equal. It says, I will manipulate you. Here’s what your role is in our grand design. And that’s what [Canada is] falling into. You don’t understand that.”

Victor Davis Hanson: Canada’s Anti-American Gamble Is About to Get Expensive
Video: The Daily Signal
The fate of 41 million Canadians depends on Mark Carney being successful in his renewed trade war with the United States.
However, he will fail.
They’ve lost 41,000 jobs just in one week of the tariff war.
The United States, for the first time ever, is ushering in a new world order.
“We’re not going to subsidize everybody’s defense and run up $200 billion deficits with one neighbor, Mexico, and $50 billion to $60 billion with our northern neighbor and call it a free trade zone.
We’re not the wealthy powerhouse we always were.
President Donald Trump wants symmetry, and the United States wants gratitude, and Carney wants to wage an economic war and gin up world opinion against the United States and ally himself with the most pernicious, deadly government in history,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson: When Will the Iranian People Overthrow the Regime?
Video: The Daily Signal
The other thing to remember about this war is there are two laws, canons, protocols that we haven’t seen before.
1. Under no circumstances will there be American troops on the ground, given the misadventures in Iraq and Afghanistan.
2. We will not attack dual-use civilian-military infrastructure if it means inflicting pain on the Iranian people
This leaves us with a new situation. And in that void, finally, as happens in war, we have a new comprehensive strategy, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of“Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson: The Left Is Dragging America Back to the Dark Ages
Video: The Daily Signal
I think a good description of 2026, culturally, economically, socially, and politically, is that we are in a modern medieval world.
One part of our society is advancing at lightning speed into the future and progressing. But the other part is regressing, and regressing at a phenomenal pace back to what I would call the medieval period.
America has never been richer, more technologically advanced, or more capable of solving basic problems, yet its cities are increasingly plagued by crime, disease, homelessness, and public disorder, and members of its “progressive” class continue to excuse blatant killers, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson: President Trump Has Completely Changed America For the Better
Video: The Daily Signal
Midterms are approaching, and anxiety is spreading among Republicans. Will American voters reelect them as the majority?
The decision is easier for voters if they only remember America five years ago under President Biden. Does anyone want to return to pride parades, record inflation, and unstable foreign relations?
“The socialist model has failed all over the world, and it’s starting to implode. And it’s not gaining ground in the United States. It’s a last gasp of a frustrated urban elite and partly due to radical immigration.”

Victor Davis Hanson: The ‘Ajax’ President: Why Trump Gets Results While Diplomats Fail
Video: The Daily Signal
President Donald Trump’s trademark is that he addresses things that no one wanted to address: unaccountable federal spending and millions of illegal aliens flooding through the southern border each year.
After the midterms, Trump needs to focus on 1) tamping down the rapidly growing federal deficit, which just crossed $40 trillion, and 2) rooting out pro-tribalist factions that want to see America divide along racial lines.
“I think if [the Trump administration] could just say, ‘We’re gonna have a hiring freeze and a budget freeze, and we’re not gonna spend any more than we did the year before and let inflation be the actual cut,’ I think that would be something that has to be addressed,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words

The Starkest Midterm Choice of My Lifetime
Video: Victor Davis Hanson
We often associate leftist movements, anarchists of the 19th century, Jacobins of the 18th century, Marxists, Bolsheviks, Symbionese Liberation Front, the Weathermen Underground with violence.
And the argument that they use is, we are for mandated equality and fairness and helping the underprivileged, and therefore to achieve those noble ends, we’re allowed to use any means necessary. And any means necessary is what’s happening right now.
This is the starkest choice in November that we’ve had in a midterm election in my lifetime, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
