About this episode

Victor Davis Hanson discusses the transformation of the Democrat Party into a radical movement that threatens the foundations of Western civilization.

The traditional Democrat Party of the last century has been systematically replaced by a radical Jacobin movement that seeks the fundamental transformation of Western civilization. This new faction mirrors the French Revolution’s extremists by toppling statues, weaponizing race through DEI, and showing open disdain for national borders. From billionaire socialists to the rejection of law and order, the modern Left has abandoned the working class in favor of a revolutionary agenda that endangers the very foundations of the American Republic, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” 👉 The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: http://dailysignal.com/donate 👉Don’t miss out on Victor’s latest short videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.
