Would you give a student visa to a Hamas supporter?In this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words”, Hanson discusses the contentious detention and deportation of Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University student with close ties to Columbia University Apartheid Divest, an anti-Israel student group that was thrust into the national spotlight when pro-Hamas student protesters occupied several academic buildings on Columbia’s campus last spring. Hanson explores the balance between free speech rights and national security concerns, examining Khalil's support for vandalism, harassment, and groups labeled as terrorist organizations by the U.S. State Department. "It wasn't what he said, but it was what he did. And he now gets his wish. He can go back to the Middle East and be a strong advocate for Hamas, in closer proximity to it."The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: https://secured.dailysignal.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

What is it going to take for universities like Columbia University to start protecting their Jewish students? Having the President of the United States cut off $400 million in federal funding is a good start, says Victor Davis Hanson in today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”“ It's widespread in higher education and the country's been appalled by it. But for some reason, higher education seems to equate Jewish Americans and, by definition, Israel with the white oppressor side of their Marxist binary, which is non-white oppressed versus white oppressor.“ For a long time, the university has decided that it will make no more pretense that it's disinterested. It's partisan, and it's political, and it's left-wing, and it's proud of it.”Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Europe treats Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy like a superstar, yet still expects the United States to fund Ukraine’s war against Russia.Is this fair?“ Of all the players in this drama, it's Europe who should be in the driver's seat. They have 500 million people,” says Victor Davis Hanson on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”“We have 500 million people in Europe and they're very upset that 330 million people across the ocean will not help 40 million people fighting 140 million people in Russia.In other words, of all the players in this drama, it's Europe who should be in the driver's seat. They have 500 million people. And yet, when we look at their expenditures, nine countries out of the 32, 11 years later, have not increased their NATO contributions to 2%. That's all we're asking for.”Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

For the first time, 60% of Americans have an “unfavorable” view of Mexico, according to a Pew Research Poll. How do you view Mexico?America’s southern neighbor has a $175 billion trade surplus with the United States, the second-largest surplus of any country. Last year, over $62 billion in remittances were sent from the U.S. to Mexico, according to BBVA Research.Mexico is aware that it has been taking advantage of the United States, with impunity, for years.President Donald Trump knows that America cannot sustain the current status quo much longer, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”“Mr. Obrador, the former president, said it was a beautiful thing that 40 million people—Mexicans—had come in illegally to the United States. Twelve million or more came in during Joe Biden's tenure. That was all done with the contrivance of Mexico.“…Mexico looked at that open border as a win-win-win-win situation…“Sixty-three billion dollars come to Mexico and that money comes largely from illegal aliens. But more importantly, it comes from people receiving state, local, and federal subsidies. So, you, the taxpayer—in terms of health subsidies, education subsidies, housing, food subsidies—are freeing up cash to send $63 billion back to Mexico.“So, if President Sheinbaum was wise, she would negotiate with Donald Trump, get that trade surplus from $175 billion down to $30 or $40 billion, stop all of the fentanyl, help secure the border, look at the remittances, allow us to put a tax on 10% or 15%, and I think we would have cordial relations again.”The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: https://secured.dailysignal.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Did Donald Trump troll Canada into reigniting a dormant nationalism? Victor Davis Hanson argues that Trump's rhetoric has greatly impacted Canadian politics and suggests ways to resolve these tensions between them and America, including tariff adjustments and military collaborations in the Arctic.“That whole [Liberal] Party was headed toward defeat when Donald Trump started to troll them—'Art of the Deal’—sort of goad them in bombastic style that they should be the 51st state in the union of the United States. … And the result is that a Conservative politician, Pierre Poilievre, may lose the election. … We’ve got to correct that.“ All Canada has to do is lower its tariffs on certain American products and get the surplus down from $50 to $20 billion. … But right now, our closest friend is becoming one of our frenemies, if not one of our enemies, and it should stop as quickly as possible.”The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: https://secured.dailysignal.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
