People deserve the death penalty for this. The blatant money grab at the expense of millions is horrifying.

Most beneficial parent book I've been exposed to.

Revisado: 06-12-24

Sometimes facing reality is inconvenient, this book is full of the history as well as the receipts that consciously and unconsciously affect my parenting and my child on a regular basis.

Actors where good... the female character was annoying and not someone they'd ever put in space. She's a time bomb.

Excellent example of...

Revisado: 06-27-22

Excellent example of how someone can make them selves sound virtuous and good by distracting via someone else's evils. This gentleman is nothing short of evil and this book only exemplifies that he views his brand of WEF evil as virtuous by conveniently leaving out many details... made all the more evident in the followup sequel to this book.

Poor Frey!

Who would have guessed, after all her sacrifice and years away, that Frey would return to a communist Trudeau Canada?

Love the books.

Every good lie is based on a truth...?

Revisado: 06-02-22

I don't want to take away from the overall story but there were a few things I had to shake my head at. Especially when the author had the opportunity of hindsight to correct himself. Seems clear he's got more agendas with this book than what's on the surface. I don't want to take away from Putin being a criminal though, that's the truth in this story having been there when he was elected.

Namely three areas of thought bother me...
1) He referred to the NY Times as the most reputable newspaper in America and was yet still surprised that they were part of his problem. Then proceeded to disregard that new knowledge and immediately falls for it even worse without letting the audience know... a passive listener would miss it. Ex: When Russian news about Trump was released, he supposedly couldn't ever make sense why all the networks and papers (who spoke in unison) would only accept Russian stories from a single source. 'A year earlier they would have jumped at a chance to talk to him again' (his words), but he was perplexed and implicated Trump for no particular reason. Keep in mind the FBI has testified they knew it was a lie within 24hrs and pushed it anyway. Also, Hillary's campaign head testified she signed off on the lie and much of this was announced before this publication. There are many other examples.

2) He spends an entire chapter on Trump, all of which ended up being immaterial to the story and never corrected his perception at the time with the facts as he did in other parts. This served zero purpose to have in the book unless his purpose was something else.

3) He expertly deploys writing tactics to mask his side agenda. By continuing to frame it in a pure 'retelling' format, inserting comments to make him seem objective, & making negative reinforcing statements he guides a reader to only one conclusion. A knowingly false conclusion, proven false in court by numerous agencies and firsthand testimonials... much of which he knew or suspected before publishing. This whole part of the book wreaks of a standard Wall Street Journal or NYT article format... you know the same one that he claims is so trustworthy.

Rest of the story is good overall, but I have to seriously question the rest of what's said. Every good lie is based on a truth...

First two parts were good.

Revisado: 05-25-20

First two parts were good, I had to skip the third future part as the format of the writing was changed considerably and not easy to listen to. The first two parts still completed the story for me.

Phenomenal reader and an extensive range of characters that are easily told apart. Great book as well.
