The Daily Signal

The war with Iran has settled into a dangerous pattern of strikes, retaliation, and stalled negotiations. Iran appears to be using talks to buy time while continuing to threaten the Gulf, tankers, and the Strait of Hormuz. The United States has already damaged major parts of Iran’s military and political structure, but the conflict will continue unless Iran loses the ability to keep attacking its neighbors and disrupting global shipping.

The path forward is to raise the cost on Iran’s military infrastructure, weaken its ability to strike, and create the conditions for most American forces to come home. With oil prices stabilizing, regional allies capable of helping keep the strait open, and the midterms approaching, the question is whether Trump can end the conflict decisively and shift attention back to the economy and the political fights at home.

The Democrats’ strategy of propping up socialist candidates and disguising them as the average middle class has finally caught up to them with Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner.

 

The allegations towards Platner are damning and have come from both sides of the political aisle. Today, the news broke that Platner officially dropped out of the Maine Senate race.

 

Where do Democrats go from here? And do they have enough time to recover?

The disease of Democrat Socialism is slowly spreading throughout three groups of people: urban consumers, immigrants, and DEI advocates.

 

Their symptoms and agenda include everything abnormal to traditional American policy: open borders, amnesty for illegal immigration, and the conflation of citizenship with mere residency.

 

Their methodology is to run in select blue cities in local elections, giving them a chance to out-fund and out-perform the Democrats. And if they do that well, socialism could spread throughout the entire Democrat Party.

 

Socialists can’t afford to create a third party, so they’re simply taking over another.

Europe is always angry, but the last two weeks particularly so.



First it was Trump’s tariffs, then it was Greenland, and now it’s the NATO budget—that the U.S. is carrying by 50% mind you.

 

What Europe should really be upset about is the socialist agenda ruining their country: DEI, redistribution, green energy, open borders, you know the rest.

 

America had better learn from Europe quickly, or we’ll be Europe 2.0 before long, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

Even though Americans didn’t ask for it, Mamdani thought America would appreciate a July 4th message from him on why the country is racist and unfair. (Spoiler, you’re the problem.)

 

In reality, the racist and privileged individual is Mamdani himself. He has never been the victim. He comes from wealthy parents, immigrates to America, and then criticizes the host country that took him in.

 

“That’s about as racist as you can get,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
