Victor Davis Hanson: DHS Shutdown Is All About the Economy, Not ICE
Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words
Outro
Victor and producers close the show, thank listeners, and invite subscriptions and website visits.
In this Friday news roundup, Victor Davis Hanson argues Iran is unlikely to strike the U.S. homeland with drones but could use proxies or influenced naturalized citizens, while discussing Trump’s potential escalation options in the region and Europe’s reluctance to help despite benefiting from reduced Iranian power.
The discussion then centers on Washington’s fight over a DHS-related shutdown: Hanson claims Democrats are using DHS as a pretext while aiming to damage the economy by disrupting airport security and broader DHS operations, forcing Trump to negotiate, and avoiding any discussion of ICE because parts of the party oppose deportations.
He also criticizes Democrat leaders for lacking a governing agenda beyond opposition to Trump and notes debates over voter ID legislation and threats of future prosecutions from figures like Susan Rice.
