Victor Davis Hanson: John Brennan’s ‘Rendezvous’ With Accountability Couldn’t Come Sooner
Q: Victor, I don't know if you've ever given us an opinion about John Brennan.
The host outlines Brennan's alleged lies under oath, his role in CIA activities, and argues for immediate perjury charges, reflecting on the broader issue of accountability for senior officials.
California’s NGO Money Pipeline, Unfunded Mandates, and Rebuilding After the Palisades Fires | Elaine Culotti & Victor Davis Hanson
Q: If you were governor, what theoretically could you do for electricity and energy policy to lower costs while keeping the grid reliable?
She argues for a realistic mix of energy sources, stressing the continued role of oil and gas for reliability and disaster response, while criticizing mandates that she says burden the middle class; she advocates broader, practical energy policy and investment strategies rather than sweeping green-only reforms.
California’s NGO Money Pipeline, Unfunded Mandates, and Rebuilding After the Palisades Fires | Elaine Culotti & Victor Davis Hanson
Q: Let me just have kind of a firing line with you, and I'll give you a question, and give me a two or three minute answer.
Elaine Culotti outlines that the core problem is a systems collapse in how California allocates and manages funds—where money often routes through middlemen and NGOs rather than directly to needs like housing, infrastructure, and fire safety.
NATO’s Double Standard on Iran, Europe’s Drift, and the Fraud Crisis at Home | Victor Davis Hanson
Q: What is your take on France's role in Hormuz and NATO's stance toward Iran?
France and some European capitals are depicted as acting in their own geopolitical interests and not fully aligning with U.S. objectives, reflecting a broader drift in Western alliance dynamics.
Swalwell Drops Out, Dem Machine Discipline, Iran Strikes & Justice System Breakdown | Victor Davis Hanson
Q: Victor, what's your take on all this?
There are multiple takes on Swalwell and the broader issue, but the core point is that the Democratic hierarchy prioritizes political viability over the specifics of misconduct, a pattern that mirrors earlier episodes around Trump-era scandals and other high-profile cases.
