Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words - Swalwell Drops Out, Dem Machine Discipline, Iran Strikes & Justice System Breakdown | Victor Davis Hanson

If you take anything away from Rep. Eric Swalwell’s resignation, it should be the following:

Whether a democratic politician actually abused, sexually harassed, sexually assaulted someone is not of importance to the Democratic hierarchy. What's important is the status of that person's political viability, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler discuss Rep. Eric Swalwell dropping out of California’s governor race amid multiple sexual misconduct allegations, arguing Democrat leaders act based on political viability and comparing reactions to Tara Reade’s allegation against Joe Biden versus E. Jean Carroll’s case against Donald Trump.

They analyze Trump’s criticism of Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones over opposition to strikes on Iran, with Hanson describing the campaign as a deterrent air effort aimed at the regime rather than Iran’s people. 

The episode also covers reports about U.S. clearing the Strait of Hormuz, prospects for ending the Russia-Ukraine war, concerns over European allies’ dependence on U.S. defense, the Byron Noem controversy as a national-security vetting failure, and anger over criminal justice outcomes including an early release in Indiana and a New York case involving a police officer convicted of manslaughter.
