Publisher's summary

The New York Times bestselling author, governor of South Dakota, and former congresswoman tells eye-opening stories of DC dysfunction, shares lessons from leading her state through unprecedented challenge, and explains how we seize this moment to move America forward.

Any elected official can talk about how broken our government is. But their solutions always seem to involve more money, new programs—and reelection to another term. Few offer an unfiltered glimpse into how government actually works, empowering citizens with the knowledge to be part of the solution.

Governor Kristi Noem never planned on being in politics. But her concern for our nation compelled her, on a local, national, and global level. Because she took a different path into public service, as a concerned mom and rancher, her insights help every citizen understand how positive change really happens, despite the dysfunction in Washington DC.

Governor Noem explains how the country is not going back to the Republican party of the 2000s. And that’s a good thing. This book is packed with surprising stories and practical lessons from the front lines of the battle. And she names names.

A lot has changed since 2016, and based on her accomplishments in Congress and as Governor, no one is better equipped than Kristi Noem to explain the tremendous opportunities this opens up for every American.

Critic reviews

"Governor Kristi Noem is a tremendous leader, one of the best. This book, it's a winner. It exposes the problems we're facing and lays out a fantastic plan to make America great again. You've got to read it!"—Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States

"During Covid, Kristi Noem proved she was the Governor with the best instincts. This book is grounded in that same common sense and fearless fight for freedom. It’s the reminder we need in these dark days to never lose hope in America. Get ready to be inspired!"—Rachel Campos-Duffy, mom of nine and co-host of FOX & Friends Weekend

"In addition to fascinating insights on the inner workings of government, this book will make you bolder! Exactly what America needs."—Chaya Raichik, Creator @LibsOfTikTok

Execellent! A must read!

She is the most qualified to be President Trump's Vice President and certainly would make a great President after his term! Don't let the hater's deter you with their interpretation of the "dog story"! I am a dog lover myself, but if a dog will bite a human, there must be consequences. If you are America First, then you are a Kristi Noem supporter!

Excellent

Down to earth. I grew up ranching, hunting and fishing so I understand her story maybe better than most. I have considered moving to South Dakota even before this book. Maybe they'll take an old Marine.

The Governor is the real deal

The honesty, sincerity and authenticity of the author is awesome. Governor Noem is exceptional in so many ways and deserves our admission and support.

Uber proud of my Governor!!

I so enjoyed Governor Noem's first book, I knew I had to listen to this one as well. This one is much more political than the first, but I loved it! I'm uber proud of MY governor in the great state of SD and her leadership. She's down to earth, blunt, gets down to business and has been an amazing leader in SoDak. I'll be honest - I did not vote for her in her first term, but shortly after she took the reins, she won me over! And I was proud to vote for her on her second term. Her politics are 100% good the not only SoDak, but also for the nation. Everyone wants her be Trump's running mate in November, but I don't want to lose her! People say she should run for President, but again...... I don't want SoDak to lose her leadership! Kudos to the author & a great listen.

Detailed account of the inner workings of government

Well thought out book on how government works and what we can do to help make our communities better. This was a very interesting book pointing out facts and opinions as what politicians go through on a daily and weekly basis.

Never wanted to stop listening.

I love that Kristi reads the book. Was very informative. Since 2020 I've been following South Dakota and how they are truly American Patriots the way Americans should live. Thinking its time to move out of Arizona.
