Government Corruption

In An Uncivil War, Washington Post journalist Greg Sargent vividly lifts the curtain on the nightmare dynamic that is transforming American politics into little more than a naked power struggle. Yet An Uncivil War is not only a thorough dissection of an ultimately immoral system, but a handbook for turning that around by restoring authentic democracy. Given the incredibly high stakes in 2018 and 2020, Sargent’s book could not be more essential.

In 50 Things They Don’t Want You to Know Jerome Hudson dives deeply into the things Americans are not supposed to realize. Many of our most hotly debate topics are shaped by Davos power brokers, woke college professors, TV talking heads, social media activists and feckless Washington swamp monsters who want you to only follow their narrative.

A elite do atraso se tornou um clássico contemporâneo da sociologia brasileira, um livro fundamental de Jessé Souza. Por meio de uma linguagem fluente, irônica e ousada, Jessé apresenta uma nova visão sobre as causas da desigualdade que marca nosso país e reescreve a história da nossa sociedade. No âmago da interpretação de Jessé não está a corrupção política. Para ele, a questão a partir da qual se deve explicar a história passada e atual do Brasil - e de suas classes, portanto - não é outra senão a escravidão.

What is the true purpose of American Education?

I've believed for many years that the powers that be (whoever they are) who control most everything in America have worked overtime to turn the American Law Enforcement Officer into little more than a tool for the shadow government: a way to get around The Posse Comitatus Act.

Five stories about a man who seeks justice for those who have been wronged after the system has failed them. Paul Jekyll, a man of the sea--a renegade, a pirate, a violent man--he seeks out truth and justice for those who have been denied by corrupt government officials by means not available within the system. At his side supporting him are Hibiscus, a voodoo princess, and Blackbeard the parrot--named by none other than Edward Teach three hundred years ago. The first story, Escape, takes place during the era of pirates, buccaneers, and HMS ships roaming the coast off Charleston. Our next ...

¿Qué se puede hacer cuando se sabe que las instituciones de un país las conforman personas despiadadas sin escrúpulos? ¿Qué se hace cuando la misma sociedad está integrada por ciudadanos que no sólo permiten, sino que llevan a cabo, participan, apoyan, sostienen, callan, esconden, encubren, ciento doce mil desapariciones de personas? ¿Con qué fuerza se sigue adelante? Y también, ¿cómo y por qué, a pesar de todo, se sigue luchando?

Still Winning is the story of the unlikeliest of heroes who emerged from the unlikeliest of places to take up the impossible cause of a truly forgotten people. They are people who love their country, trust their higher God, obey laws, and will do anything for their family and neighbors.

For the better part of a century, the left has been waging a slow, methodical battle for control of the institutions of Western civilization. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the problem and the players involved, both on the aggressive, hard-charging left and in the nascent conservative resistance. Soukup explains what the left is doing and how and why the right must be prepared and willing to fight back to save this critical aspect of American culture from becoming another, more economically powerful version of the “woke” college campus.

Since 1945, the US has justified numerous wars, interventions, and military build-ups based on the pretext of the Russian Red Menace, even after the Soviet Union collapsed at the end of 1991 and Russia stopped being Red. In fact, the two biggest post-war American conflicts, the Korean and Vietnam wars, were not, as has been frequently claimed, about stopping Soviet aggression or even influence. And now the specter of a Russian Menace has been raised again in the wake of Donald Trump's victory.

Our American democracy is not broken. Our two-party political system and constitutional government are working, though perhaps not at their best. In recent years, we have experienced the storming of the Capitol, the rise of demagogues (such as Donald Trump and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez), and the polarization into Red and Blue States. Unfortunately, we seem to be at a low point, a possible breaking point.

Esta provocadora pregunta es el núcleo de Creadores de tormentas, un análisis profundo sobre las teorías de la conspiración relacionadas con la manipulación climática, la geoingeniería y las tecnologías que, según algunos, ya están cambiando nuestro mundo. Desde las afirmaciones sobre programas militares secretos como HAARP hasta la posibilidad de que el clima se esté utilizando como arma de guerra, este libro explora la intersección entre la ciencia, la especulación y el ocultismo gubernamental.

Much of the attention paid to Trump's rise to power has focused on his corrosive personality and divisive style of governing. But he alone is not the problem. The vulnerability is much broader and deeper. The ascendance of Trump is the culmination of nearly 250 years of political reforms that gradually ceded party nominations to small cliques of ideologically motivated party activists, interest groups, and donors. Author Lawrence Jacobs provides a highly engaging history of political reforms since the late-eighteenth century that over time dangerously weakened democracy.

The remarkable lengths Ruderman and Laker go to for the story - chasing down witnesses on the city's grimmest streets, sifting through archive boxes and hours of surveillance tape for crucial clues, and coaxing reluctant victims to come forward - put their determination to balance motherhood with the career they love to the ultimate test.
