The Frightening Dream House of Zoran Mamdani
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness After his first-place win in the New York City mayoral primaries, Zohran Mamdani is furiously denying everything that he once glibly thought was cutting-edge and cool.

VDH UltraThe Crybaby Iran and Its Feet of Clay, Part Two
