About this listen

 While it was unwise for President Donald Trump to attack Pope Leo in such a public manner, the Pope himself should know better than to wade into partisan politics in a time of war, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” featuring co-host Jack Fowler. Jack and Victor also condemn the assault on TPUSA reporter Savannah Hernandez at a recent protest, urging legal consequences, and use it to argue the activist left claims moral exemption while enabling violence. Victor reviews analysis that a U.S. blockade could rapidly cripple Iran’s oil revenue, limit storage capacity, and deepen internal regime weakness, criticizing media pessimism and disputing claims that China will “win” via renewables. The episode also notes NATO allies’ declining readiness, UN backing of Iran for a key council role, and Al Sharpton’s call for black Americans to avoid celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.
