Symbolically, the closure speaks volumes. Victor Davis Hanson walks us through the troubling legacy left behind at the FBI HQ on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Robert Mueller, a former FBI director, was the head of the Special Counsel's Office. Remember that? And he had the dream team—the all-stars, a hunter/killer team—with the Left. He was almost giddy about that they were gonna get Donald Trump on Russian collusion.  “ That same office then gave us Christopher Wray. Why was he spying on parents at school board meetings? Why was he spying on what they called ‘radical-traditional Catholics’? Why did they go after abortion protesters, but not in the same way people who were protesting pro-life?” 0:00 Kash Patel Shuts Down the J.

On today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson,” Hanson says that Trump is promoting security through economic cooperation and criticized the neoconservative legacy of endless wars. “ What Donald Trump is trying to say is: Let's just not get into politics. Let's not get into offending foreign leaders. … Not to lecture them, but to create economic matrices, nexuses, in which people find that it's in their vested interest to profit rather than to kill people. “ What he's emphasizing is that there is a common bond in the world. And that common bond is in the heart of everybody. They want peace and they want prosperity and they want security. That's not necessarily antithetical or exclusionary of freedom because, obviously, economic ability—the ability to make money and the ability to be secure—often has an element of what? Freedom.” 0:00 Trump's Middle East Tour 1:00 Criticism of Prior Administrations 1:54 Trump's Foreign Policy Approach 3:40 Specific Global Conflicts and Solutions 5:27 Criticism and Comparison with Biden's Policies 7:46 Conclusion 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

There are more mysteries than answers surrounding the Biden team. Why did Joe Biden's medical team announce right now—on the eve of the release of “Original Sin”—this shocking story that the president, who just left office 100 days ago, was suffering from a very seriously rare, malignant form of prostate cancer, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”   “President—he was vice president, he was president, now he's an ex-president. They are accorded the best, most comprehensive diagnostic medical care in the world. Isn't it true that Joe Biden would've known about this? We just had a report—right before he stepped down, in the summer of 2024—an exhaustive medical report, that he was fine. But he is trying to tell us, or sadly, his team is trying to tell us that, just in a matter of nine months, he developed a prostate cancer unknown to all of his doctors. Unknown—that didn't appear on any of his diagnostic tests.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

LaMonica McIver faces federal assault charges after a confrontation at an ICE facility, stirring political controversy. The fallout from Biden's prostate cancer diagnosis raises questions about his health and leadership amid growing concerns about transparency. Additionally, peace talks between Putin, Zelensky, Trump, and Pope Leo XIV could reshape international relations, highlighting the complexities of diplomacy in a tumultuous political climate.

One of the most important reasons President Donald Trump won in 2024 was his very convincing case that the Biden family was corrupt.    The president should act swiftly and make certain to an already hostile media that Qatar’s gift, the ‘palace in the sky’, is in keeping with ethical standards, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”   “It would be very wise—because Trump is at a critial point in his administration where he cannot bleed anything—to have an informal ethics adviser, in my opinion. And just to reassure this predatory media—not that you have to cater them or not that you have to listen to them—but just someone in the administration, an ethics czar, that advises all of the Trump family and associates to make a firewall between them and presidential assistance.” 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

Gaza will never become an independent nation, Israel Ambassador to the U.S. Yechiel Leiter says.   “There's not going to be an independent sovereign state other than Israel west of the Jordan River,” Leiter told The Daily Signal.   “There could be all sorts of autonomous arrangements,” he said, “but there's not going to be an independent sovereign Palestinian state west of the Jordan River. It's just not going to be.”   The nation of Israel extends from the Joran River west to the Mediterranean Sea to form the narrow country that is roughly the size of New Jersey. Since Hamas launched its attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, pro-Palestine protesters in America and round the world have chanted, “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” referring to Palestine fully occupying the land between the Joran River and the Mediteranea Sea, in turn eliminating the nation of Israel.   Following Oct. 7, there is a “complete absence of bandwidth” in Israel for the creation of a Palestinian state next to Israel. There is, however, a great deal of interest in Israel to expand partnerships with nations in the Middle East through the Abraham Accords, according to Leiter.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Why did the DNC, White House staffers and even seasoned journalists lie to the American people when they decided to run cover for Joe Biden?   It's not enough just to say, “Politics. We want power.” What was the strategy to make you do something so egregious, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”   “The same existential is why do all these reporters say now, ‘We were in on the deal, we covered up for Biden’? ‘The Biden staff did it.’ ‘No, the media did it.’ But they all agreed that he was non compos mentis. He was cognitively challenged when he was nominated, when they cleared the nomination field out. They got rid of Buttigeig. They got rid of Elizabeth Warren. They got rid of Sanders. They all disappeared quickly.   “And then they used this waxen effigy as a veneer. But why? That was very risky to do that. They all tell us they did it but they don't tell us why… They saw this as a wonderful opportunity. Use Joe Biden and just have him come in three days a week, stumble through stuff, and then push through the most left-wing, nihilistic, destructive, socialist agenda in history.”  👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.
