The Daily Signal - VDH: Trump, Conservatives Are Faced With ‘Unknown Frontiers.’ Are We Ready To Face Them?

Just like Captain Kirk ventured into uncharted space, America is now stepping into political and economic territory no one thought possible. We’ve been told these ideas were impossible. But now, by doing what the Right has promised for decades, America is breaking every “rule” the expert class clings to.

 

Victor Davis Hanson breaks down what this means for the Trump administration conservative movement on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

 

“ On the budget, on the economy, on the universities, on the border—and I could apply this as well to the radical changes in military recruitment, in DEI—no one has ever said, ‘We're going to actually do what conservatives and Republicans have promised for a half-century.’ And when you do that, and you actually carry through your promises, you're in unknown territory. “

The Daily Signal - VDH: The Left Doesn’t Hate Sydney Sweeney’s Jeans. They Hate Beauty.

On today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson breaks down the absurdity of the outrage and exposes the real history of eugenics—hint: it doesn’t come from the Right.


“ We have all sorts of models that pose for jean commercials. American Eagle have had black women, people, Hispanics, everybody. And do you remember the ad by Levi's for Beyonce? Levi's has her portrayed with a cowboy hat, a yellow wig, and in a country-western setting with Levi jeans. … Nobody objected, nobody said, ‘Beyonce is objectifying whiteness because, as an African American, she's got a blond wig on.’” 


“ A final warning or a piece of advice from Aristotle: We act to beauty by proportion and mathematics. As I said, Beyonce is beautiful, not because she's black or not because she's not white, or Sydney Sweeney is beautiful, not because of her skin color, but because she has, as Aristotle would say, perfect symmetry. And that's a universal idea.”

The Daily Signal - The Daily Signal Presents “Problematic Women” – Sex Ed, Sydney Sweeney, and the Big Lies Feminism Sells | Feat. March for Life President

Culture matters. We see it in the response to the new American Eagle ads featuring actress Sydney Sweeney and the Dunkin' Donuts commercial starring Gavin Casalegno. And we see it in the way Americans think and talk about abortion and having children. 

 

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” March for Life President Jennie Bradley Lichter joins the show to discuss where American sentiment on abortion stands, and how the pro-life movement is effectively working to save the unborn even as chemical abortions have become the most popular form of abortion in the U.S. 

 

Lichter also discusses her work during the first Trump administration and answers the question: can women have it all? 

 

Plus, former Vice President Kamala Harris is coming out with a book on her 107 day presidential campaign. Should be a fun read! We react to the news. All this and more on this week’s edition of “Problematic Women.”

It’s Andrew Breitbart’s world, we’re all just living in it.


Tragically, Breitbart himself is not. He died suddenly on March 1, 2012 at just 43 years of age.


In his life, ⁠Breitbart⁠ was always a pioneer, pushing media and politics to the edges of the map only to open a completely new frontier. There’s something fitting to him exploring the frontier of eternity just a little before the rest of us in his earthly death. Breitbart spent most of his career at the confluence of Hollywood, media, and politics. He was one of the first men on the right to clearly see the complete picture. “Celebrity is everything in this country,” Breitbart once said. “Media is everything. It's everything.”


After listening to a radio interview with Breitbart, Larry O’Connor, then a show manager for Broadway productions, contacted Breitbart and wanted to write for his blog Big Hollywood. O’Connor found Breitbart, but Breitbart also found ⁠O’Connor⁠. Now a radio host with Washington, D.C.’s WMAL, probably the most influential political radio station in the country, and author of a new book titled “Shameless Liars,” O’Connor joined ⁠"The Signal Sitdown"⁠ to discuss how Andrew Breitbart saw the rise of Trump, and the efforts to take him down like the Russiagate hoax, coming.

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Experts Were Wrong. The Economy’s Strong—But the Fed Won’t Budge.

So why are media outlets still talking down the economy? And why is Chairman of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell refusing to cut interest rates, despite earlier recession warnings that never materialized? Victor Davis Hanson breaks it all down on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”


“Remember that The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, and our main media organs all told us in May when Donald Trump was talking about art of the deal tariffs, … we were going to have high inflation, stagflation, bad job growth, static GDP, and a trade war along with a Wall Street collapse, basically a recession. Well, wall Street stock prices are at historical highs. Every one of those predictions was wrong.


“If [Powell] is worried about a trade war, and tariffs and soft job growth, which was predictive but didn't happen, why don't you lower interest rates? And the fact is that if you look at the interest rates that he did cut right before the 2024 election and his all over the map, attitude toward interest rates today, there is no logic because if he's worried that the economy inflation might— it's gone up one 10th of an point and it's steaming and then he's going to what? Keep interest rates that high?”

The Daily Signal - Can the EPA Help Undo Virginia’s Climate Mandates?


This week EPA administrator Lee Zeldin began the process of negating the 2009 “Endangerment Finding” that was, as President Obama called it, the ‘Holy Grail of Climate Change Regulation.’ This was where the idea that the very byproduct of Human existence, Carbon Dioxide, could be regulated as a pollutant.


So, here in Viginia we have the Virginia Clean Economy Act that was passed in 2020 by the Democrat-majority General Assembly and signed into law by Governor Ralph Northam. If you have heard about “California-ing Virginia,” this is the act that did that. Connecting Virginia’s environmental regulations to California’s including getting to “net zero” carbon emissions by 2030. This law also put a stop to new electric generating facilities being built to replace retiring ones despite the demand skyrocketing.


What does the EPA’s action mean for this law? Can it be repealed? Overturned in court? We sit down with analyst for the Thomas Jefferson Institute Steve Haner to find out.
