Victor Davis Hanson: Iran Can’t Be Trusted, and Trump Turns the Tables on Kristen Welker
6/11/20261 hr 20 min
The FBI’s targeting of traditional catholics, updates on the U.S-Iran war, and the Left’s continued misuse of media; this is “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” As tensions with Iran continue to dominate news headlines, questions are growing about whether diplomacy can still deter the regime’s nuclear ambitions and aggression. Victor Davis Hanson argues that recent events have exposed the failures of past U.S. policy toward Iran, while also highlighting deeper problems at home—from FBI investigations targeting traditional Catholics, to media bias at CBS and NBC, to Trump’s recent callout of NBC's “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker. On today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson examines the challenges facing America abroad and the institutions losing public trust at home.
