## Resource

Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler argue that President Trump is leading a political "counter-revolution," seeking to reverse decades of progressive policies on immigration, education, energy, and American history, doing more than any other Republican president. They examine why these efforts have sparked fierce resistance from the political Left and what they could mean for the country's future.The conversation also covers the growing appeal of democratic socialism among younger Americans, the resurgence of historical revisionism, and why the ignorance of the past is fueling today's political and cultural debates. This episode also explores Iran's military threats in the Middle East, Canada's wildfire and healthcare controversies, and what recent changes in military recruitment and merit-based leadership reveal about the direction of the United States and its allies.
