After years of alienating working-class voters, Democrats are suddenly trying to rebrand themselves as champions of Main Street with candidates like James Talarico and Graham Platner.

From carefully crafted campaign images to handpicked candidates marketed as authentic, the party is betting voters will forget its record. 

But can political theater overcome years of rhetoric and policies that pushed millions of working Americans away? The latest attempts to win back the white working class may reveal more about Democrat elites than the voters they're trying to persuade.

Iran has spent weeks delaying, provoking, and negotiating while avoiding a final resolution. 

Victor Davis Hanson examines why Tehran may be trying to buy time, how rising energy prices are affecting the U.S. economy, and why President Trump faces growing pressure to resolve the standoff before the midterm elections.

As tensions continue in the Strait of Hormuz, Israel, Kuwait, and the Gulf states, Hanson explains the choices facing the Trump administration and what could happen if Iran refuses to comply with U.S. demands.

California has transformed into a single-party monopoly where the legislative, executive, and judicial branches actively subvert the will of the voters. Through lax voting laws, ballot harvesting, and a lack of voter identification requirements, the state has institutionalized a system where early conservative leads are routinely erased weeks after Election Day. 

The controversy surrounding Spencer Pratt, Nithya Raman, and the Los Angeles mayoral race is connected to a broader pattern that crushes democracy every time, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

June 6, 1944, was more than a beach landing. It was the opening blow that helped break Nazi Germany and secure American hegemony for decades to come.

We owe so much to the brave men who charged into gunfire that day, knowing quite well their last actions would be in defense of their country.

The facts are not in dispute. Henry Nowak, a young university student was talking home one night when a 23-year-old Sikh immigrant stabbed him in the chest several times with a “ceremonial blade.”

Vickrum Digwa, the killer, told police that Nowak had racially assaulted him.

This was a lie.

The police handcuffed Nowak, leaving him to bleed out in front of them.

"Mr. Nowak, unlike George Floyd, was not a career criminal. He was not being handcuffed because he was passing counterfeit currency and high on fentanyl and resisting arrest as Mr. Floyd was. It's far more egregious for police to handcuff a man bleeding on the ground than to use a standard approved measure to restrain a suspect that was resisting arrest that went south when he stopped breathing.  What was the reaction? The United States blew up for four months.  What was the reaction in Britain to Mr. Nowak? Silence," argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
