What happens when the President of the United States governs one Tweet at a time? When the elected leader of the free world may not have a firm grasp on the names of government agencies, much less an understanding of their intricate inner-workings? In the days following the 2016 inauguration, government personnel searched for answers that didn’t exist, while White House staff scoured halls for employees who would never be appointed.

Trump derangement syndrome: the book
Revisado: 05-04-19
I've been a huge Michael Lewis fan ever since college where I was introduced to his work. I always thought he wrote about subjects in a clear eyed clear headed way. It's clear Michael Lewis knows very little about the government sector he writes about (having spent much of his career in finance). He comes to.the subject with the preconceived notion that government workers are more angel than man. Just an awful bit of big government propoghanda. Goebbels would be proud of this work, but Michael Lewis should be ashamed. I'm ashamed I bought it.

Kahlan has at last gained the one goal she had always thought was beyond her grasp...love. Against all odds, the ancient bonds of secret oaths, and the dark talents of men long dead, Richard has won her heart. Amid sudden and disastrous events, Richard's life is called due to satisfy those treacherous oaths. To save his life, Kahlan must forsake Richard's love and cast him into the chains of slavery, knowing there could be no sin worse than such a betrayal.

Miss the last reader
Revisado: 04-10-18
Great story but reader was not as good as the last reader from the first book. I had to try really hard to get into the book with this new reader. Kind of ruined the experience at first and almost didn’t finish the book. Glad I stuck through it because the story was great. Please bring back the reader from the first book!!

Timothy Sandefur's insightful book provides a dramatic new challenge to the status quo of constitutional law and argues a vital truth: our Constitution was written not to empower democracy, but to secure liberty. Yet the overemphasis on democracy by today's legal community - rather than the primacy of liberty, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence - has helped expand the scope of government power at the expense of individual rights.
