I too considered myself a disciple. I became enthralled with VDH while reading The Case For Trump. For years after I devoured anything I could find from him on KZbin, and I even subscribed to National Review to get his newest articles. But all that ended when he adopted the Republican establishment position on the election. Of course he acknowledged that there were anomalies, that Pennsylvania broke its own state's constitution, that the corrupt media suppressed the Hunter laptop - definitely giving a few points to Brandon - but when we needed him to say what is obvious to any objective citizen, he played it safe. That's when I lost respect.

I hear you Bill, I have read nine of his books and listened to every podcast he has been on for well over a decade. I also only subscribed to National Review for his writings from 2002 till he left last year. Victor is on scores of older episodes of Uncommon Knowledge with Peter Robinson from the Hoover Institute. If you have not listened to those, or even his old Ricochet episodes take a listen. I am sure you know you won't be disappointed. Take care.

I have followed VDH for many years and can deeply empathize with him as a Californian as well as an ex-border patrol agent. His commentaries are both adroit and informative, not just about conservative personal opinion. In your discussion Dr. Hanson reference Augustine Hippo's comment regarding the 'earthly' city imploring the citizen not to allow fields to go fallow and plant and return to the virtues of the citizen farmer and how American society have discarded the work ethic of physical labor exporting such labor abroad for cheaper costs. I can remember the days of the Washington- Labor union corrupt marriage where especially the steel/auto/trucking unions extorted wages from those corporations making them wholly non-competitive as the union workers literally paid into the coffers of such corrupt politicians. The idea of joining something like that was anathema to me! But the greater anathema that has not passed but become much worse are the woke religious denominations and theologians propelling them. The autonomy of the local church under the spiritual gifts as as illustrated in Ephesians 4 is really our only hope against this cosmic onslaught of a very perverse moralism ensuring that this bankrupt nation never makes it to "Chapter 11' as it were. In short, pastors need to start studying and teaching daily and the gifts of their congregations must begin supporting them.....witness ministries like Dr. Andy Woods of Sugarland Bible Church and R. B. Thieme Jr of Berachah church. They actually TREAT their professions as professions.

He doesn’t have any common sense lol he lives in the same county as me (Fresno County CA) and said its almost exclusively Republican and that everyone here stays away from the coast because they hate the liberal elites so much. Our county is blue and everyone loves going to the beach and no one talks about “liberal elites” lol he lives in an echo chamber of fiction and straight up doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Right winger saying things right wingers already think and want to hear to confirm their biases. There is no “prolonged adolescence” in the vast majority of people, the problem is people have to live with their parents because the federal minimum wage has not kept up with inflation and productivity increases for DECADES. Thinking society is decaying because people aren’t getting married and having kids and have too much debt, is just completely looking in the wrong place with the wrong intent.

VDH is a national treasure. I’m 44, a member of Generation X and as the millennial generation has emerged like mindless, ravenous locusts, I’ve come to look back to the minds of my parent’s generation in hopes they could impart wisdom to those who would listen who might help save the nation from the wolves at the door. Often I think many of us who are secular but moral take for granted how important our parent’s and our childhood’s exposure and emphasis on the church was in forming our sense of morality and I regretfully admit to being a young 18 year old father who didn’t allot enough importance to Christianity when raising my son. And though he has a very similar morality to mine, I see what he’s missing and where I’ve gone wrong as a father, now that he’s 25 and has not met the challenge of fatherhood as well as I did, as flawed as I was as a father. Fortunately for my two grandchildren, they were both born to Mexican-American mother’s who still retain stronger religious traditions within their families than existed in my own upbringing. So in that I can find temporary solace, but I hope the culture finds God again, at least in the best sense so that morality can be reestablished so that America can once again know that it’s best days lie ahead once more. I’m very concerned at how technology was used to blindside and subvert the population while they were distracted with fabulously vacant technological distractions.

I have lived in California for 56+ years. No one has the pulse of this culture better than Victor Davis Hanson. Like me, he has lived the deliberate decline in citizenship here, and he was paying close attention. California is the poster state for the disintegration of the roles and responsibilities of citizenship. And, progressives want it that way. No distinctions between people who are invested in these things and those who are not are permitted. To a progressive, distinctions are mere discrimination. When everyone has the privilieges and rights once reserved for citizens, then no one is really a citizen, because citizenship is an empty concept. It was gutted by social justice zealots. Illegal immigration is at the heart of this catastrophe. It won't be reversed.

So you support higher wages and unions then right? You shop local and not at places like Walmart and other outsourced product retailers that pay crap wages, don't offer insurance. You only buy produce and meat directly from small farms that aren't fueled by immigrant and migrant labor, right? You don't eat out, use landscaping or construction services...The anti-immigrant/anti-globalistic rhetoric is B.S. if you aren't actually changing your economic and personal behavior to stop personally "benefiting" from it on a daily or very regular basis..

Chomsky is older than Hanson & probably senile now. Even if he isn't (yet), Noam Chomsky is stuck in his New Left orthodoxy...basically, Chomsky is still stuck in the late 1960's. He's still in that mode of protesting against the Vietnam War even though we live in a very different world now. As for Jordan Peterson, he's a different kettle of fish... Peterson has given some great advice & general guidance to lots of young men today, something in which society in America & Europe is sadly deficient. But that's the only good thing Peterson has done, especially lately. He tends to speak quite vaguely & borrows from Freudian & Jungian theories & mysticism, all of which I find unhelpful.

We blame the past saying that we were tribals and underdeveloped without borders, without racism, without any significant demand for wealth or consumption..and now we feel we have evolved (for the better) with cleaner air, more poverty and disparity, enslavement to machines, geographical borders. We need to rethink everything on the way we live in this world.

Robert Mohler, a very fine Christian theologian has also this capacity to take on so effectively all (and I sense any other serious, important thing we have to deal with in life.) Victor D. Hanson is simply remarkable and now at 79 and nowhere close to these men's minds, I still get what they say...mostly. I am always amazed when I see such persons as these how great our God to have given us such teachers that is such an extraordinary help in understanding things we seldom get most anywhere else. Alistair Begg, Scottish theologian/Pastor spoke of another colleague of his that was so gifted...as these two...that the friend had a brain size 18, while his own was (six?) Anytime anyone wants food for the mind/soul, and we all need more learning, GO to these men. What a delight this was! wl

Unalienable Rights Unalienble Rights are the Inherent, Sovereign, Natural Rights that existed before the creation of the State, and which, being antecendent to and above the State, can never be taken away, diminished, altered, or liened upon by the State, subject only to the Due Process of the Common Law. Nor can any Unalienable Right be fundamentally removed, whether mistakenly by contract through non-disclosure, which is fraud and unenforceable in Law, or knowingly by renunciation, which is contrary to Natural Law. The Original, Permanent, Unalienable Rights of every Man or Woman, include: The Right to Life, Freedom, Health, and the Pursuit of Happiness. The Right to Contract, or Not to Contract, which is Unlimited. The Right to Earn a Living by being Compensated with Wages, a Salary, or any Trade Goods, in Fair Exchange for one's Work The Right to Travel in the Ordinary Course of one's Life and Business. The Right to Privacy and Confidentiality, free from Unwarranted Invasion. The Right to Control, and Hold one's Property, Lawfully without Trespass. The Right to Self-Defence when threatened with Harm, Loss, or Deceit. The Right to Due Process of Law, with Notice and Opportunity to Defend. The Right to be Presumed Innocent, suffering No Detention or Arrest, No Search or Seizure, without Reasonable Cause. The Right to Remain Silent when accused, to avoid Self-Discrimination. The Right to Equality in the Eyes of the Law, and to Equal Representation. The Right to Trial by Jury, being an Impartial Panel of One's Peers. The Right to Apeal in Law against Conviction or Sentence, or both. The Right to Expose Knowledge necessary to one's Rights and Freedoms. The Right to Peaceful Association, Assembly, Expression and Protest. The Right to Practice a Religion, and to have Beliefs, of one's Choosing The Right to Love, and to Consensual Marriage, with Children, as a Family. The Right to Security, from Abuse, Persecution, Tyranny, and War. The Right to Refuse, to Kill, under command, by Reason of Conscience. The Right to Live, in Peace, and be left alone when Law Abiding. Surely, the most Critical Failure of the People, is their failure to ensure the Teaching and Common Knowledge of their Unalienable Rights. If you do not know your Rights, you effectively have none. By the Path of Ignorance, whether by Apathy or Deception. The People arrive in a State of Exploitation, Oppression and Tyranny.

Concerning the British peoples move to America, I think that the initial move was away from a theocracy in England to a theocracy, for instance in Mass. of Puritans. When others later came to Mass., they were treated poorly if they were not Puritans. Similarly there was a theocracy in Virginia of Anglicans and a theocracy in other states (colonies) of other religions. But Roger Williams left Mass., after being punished for not being puritan and he ended up, along with others settling Rhode Island and beginning the first colony that ensured freedom of conscience. It would be interesting to find out what that had on the founding of the US. He was Baptist, but te state of RI, became known as RC, I think because of the freedom of choice.

You are watching a free-for-all on the US Treasury. The Marketplace has failed. Politicians on both sides know not everyone will suffer on the same scale. So they are stockpiling $$$ as much as possible & buying multiple properties to flee to. Hannity.....Levin......Beck.....Ingraham.....etc - they all know it's crashed. They string you along as they bury $ millions. They try to hold the audience as best they can while they prepare for the dark days. They all have huge ranches on mega acres out west storing years worth of food & fuel. Very sad dark days ahead.

@@peterruane9220 you might look closer at the costly restrictions federal, state, and local governments levied upon private businesses in the united states is why so many jobs left the states . Small example against business in America that most people dont ever see is a business gets a tax bill every year from the fed's, state and local governments on tools and equipment every year and than again the following year and again and again and for ever each year on old tools and equipment. ( How would you like to pay a tax on your TV, washer&dryer , frigidaire, dish washer every year forever ) This is just one issue that destroys the prospect of a fair price for s product or service. The government has a thrust for insane retirement plans for government workers .

I met students while I was in college at age 40, not all of them young, who were borrowing enough student loans to live on while they "messed around" changing majors and dropping classes at the last minute. So I wonder if much of the Trillion $ student loan debt is for living expenses, trips to Florida, cool tech, clothes, and cars.

He should have a talk with Mark Lilla. They are different men politically but I do think there is good common ground. The problem is with excessive progressivism to the far left and libertarianism on the right. The loss of genuine religious faith and practice and/or real political philosophy is the problem as well. So education becomes trivialized.
