California Politics, Greek Mythology, and The Future of the West

Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words

California’s political dysfunction, growing concerns over immigration and election integrity, and declining trust in public institutions reflect a broader struggle over accountability, governance, and national identity. Questions surrounding border security, demographic change, public safety, and political leadership continue to shape debates across the United States while voters increasingly question whether government institutions are serving the public interest.

At the same time, challenges abroad—from China and Iran to Canada, Europe, and the future of Western alliances—are forcing leaders to confront shifting geopolitical realities. Economic competitiveness, technological innovation, national sovereignty, and civic trust remain central to the ability of free societies to navigate an increasingly uncertain world.
