Hello ladies, hello, gentlemen, this is the Victor Davis Hansen show. I am Jack Fowler, the host, the star, the namesake is Victor Davis Hansen.

He is the Martin E. Leanderson senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and the Wayne Amosha Busky Distinguished Fellow in history at Hillstale College.

You know, Victor is also a military historian. I think somebody might know that. And I hope we have time at the end of the show to talk about Yalta, because February 11th is the anniversary of the last day of that conference set.

Most one of the major conferences at the end of World War II, get Victor's thoughts on that. Victor, this week saw Joe Biden give us a state of the Union speech.

And we're going to get your thoughts on that and plenty more stuff right after these important messages.

We're back with the Victor Davis Hansen show. So Victor, I know you spoke with Sammy on the podcast you recorded.

I think earlier today or yesterday, I didn't get a chance to listen yet. I know you spoke a little about the state of the Union.

But I'd like to get your further thoughts on anything you might want to say about it. I do want to know that you wrote for for your website, Victor Hansen.com.

Well, actually, I think it's just indicated column was the the mess of an address.

But you know, question that a number of people are talking about is decorum.

Decorum by Republicans, Kevin McCarthy asked for decorum and there were there was.

Plenty of theatrics that went on from both sides of the aisle.

But Victor, if you have any, if you would like to address some of the criticisms of Republican decorum or were they just.

And anything else you'd like to say about this state of the Union speech.

Well, the decorum, but I mentioned that to Sammy. But since I talked to her, there's been a lot of anger at the Republicans for I think Marjorie Taylor, Green, Yale, Liar.

And then they said, you're responsible when you talked about fentanyl.

And we, when that Joe lost to that years ago about liar or a two Obama when he lied about Obamacare, I guess everybody was outraged at him.

But what comes around goes around. Nemesis, payback, it's a bitch, whatever karma, whatever term we want to use.

Because who destroyed the decorum of ours?

Nancy Pelosi, when she tore up the state of the Union address and she grimaced and she scowled and she shook her head in front of the cameras every time Trump said something.

And so and people on the left side were booing and moving.

So I mean, that's where we are now. And that's part of a larger theme.
