Victor Davis Hanson: The Left’s Rage is a Symptom of a Movement in Decline

The Democrat reaction to the bombing of Iranian nuclear sites exemplified all that’s wrong with the Left today. Suddenly, the same Democrats who cheered Obama’s endless airstrikes were invoking the War Powers Act and demanding congressional approval. Why not? Because this time it was Trump’s America that hit back. Their volatile, inconsistent messaging isn’t new. Victor Davis Hanson unpacks the deeper story behind the chaos of how the Democrat Party has surrendered to its most radical base on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “The Left knows that they are not polling well. They know that the party's base is controlling their narrative, and they know that that narrative supports issues from transgenderism, to an open border, to lax enforcement of criminal statutes, to something like Kabul, abroad, that has no public support. And they're angry. “ Whatever Donald Trump has done to them—and maybe that will be his lasting legacy—he has had the ability to expose what used to be Democrats as absolutely unhinged and nihilistic. I don't think anybody wants any part of them.”

Chicago gangbangers rage against newly arrived Venezuelan migrants as Tren de Aragua moves in

After serving 20 years in state prison for murder, former gangbanger Tyrone Muhammad never expected to return to the city’s tough South Side to find Venezuelan migrants and criminal Tren de Aragua gang moving in. New York Post reporter Dana Kennedy shares this story. But Muhammad, 53, who’s gone straight and run a street patrol and violence prevention program called Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, says Venezuelan criminal gangs flooding shelters and taking over apartment buildings are the last straw for the struggling African-American community. He says they are furious at seeing government money going to what they call “non-citizens.” “It is impossible to release gang members and criminals into our country through the borders and broken walls and infiltrate them in our community that’s already impoverished and broken,” Muhammad told The Post last week on the O Block, a stretch along South King Drive that’s considered the most dangerous in the city.
