Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words
Is America becoming more divided at home—and more isolated abroad?

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler examine the media firestorm surrounding the July 4 Patriot Front photo, arguing that public attention is often shaped by selective coverage rather than consistent standards.

They discuss recent teen takeover incidents, rising concerns about crime, and the state of race relations in America, while debating how decades of public policy have contributed to today's challenges.

The conversation also explores growing divisions within the Democratic Party, as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro distances himself from the party's socialist wing, and whether moderates can reclaim influence. Hanson argues that Europe is increasingly dependent on the United States while pursuing policies that have weakened its own economic and military strength.

The episode also discusses Tucker Carlson's suggestion that America needs a third party, his break with President Trump over foreign policy, and what those disagreements reveal about the future of the conservative movement.
