Victor Davis Hanson: The Left Renamed Everything. Now Trump Does It, and They're Furious.

Tue, 01 Sep 2026
In a retort to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's refusal of a recent trade deal with the United States, President Trump renamed Lake Ontario to "Lake America."

This political renaming of natural landmarks and wonders is not original to Trump. Barack Obama renamed Mount McKinley. Earl Warren's name was stripped from the Legal Institute. Even hundreds of years ago, Romans renamed landmarks.

Trump is only reacting to a long tradition, one mostly embarked on by the Left in recent years.

Victor Davis Hanson: Canada Wants a Fight It Can’t Afford

Tue, 01 Sep 2026
Canada’s growing confrontation with the United States is about much more than just tariffs. Trade imbalances, Chinese goods entering the American market through Canada, taxes on U.S. companies, and Mark Carney’s political strategy have pushed relations with Washington to a new low.

At the same time, Canada faces weak economic growth, enormous immigration pressures, separatist movements in Alberta and Quebec, and continued dependence on the United States for its defense. Picking a fight with America will not solve those problems.

Victor Davis Hanson: The Atomic Bombs Dropped in Japan Were Not 'Satanic'

Thu, 27 Aug 2026
It's August, so we have the annual debate over the dropping of two atomic bombs, one on August 6, the uranium bomb called "Little Boy" that was dropped on the dual-use target, military and industrial Japanese city of Hiroshima, and then three days later on Nagasaki with a plutonium bomb.  

 “The dropping of the atomic bomb, it was not a satanic enterprise...Good men made a bad weapon to stop far worse men from killing innocents,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson: We Need to Stop Letting In Ungrateful Immigrants

Wed, 26 Aug 2026
Most Americans used to be supportive of legal immigration because most immigrants loved the country that welcomed them in. Today’s immigrants, such as Hasan Piker and Ilhan Omar, are somehow ungrateful yet refuse to return to their home country.

 “You set one foot in here or your parents set one foot in here, and immediately you lodge complaints against the gracious host that welcomed you in and welcomed you in with security, prosperity, and freedom that you did not have.”

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.”
