Most politicians would hunker down, stay quiet, and fight the federal case against them. But as he had done for years, Rod Blagojevich proved he was no ordinary politician.

Dispensing with sensationalism to present the facts about one of the nation’s most notorious politicians, the authors detail the mechanics of the corruption that brought the governor down and profile a fascinating and frustrating character who embodies much of what is wrong with modern politics.

From Christopher Columbus to the Salem Witch trials to the so-called \"Red Scares\" of the 1930s and 40s and much more, Dr. Savage recounts the many times collective insanity has gripped the American public - often prompted by sinister politicians with ulterior motives.\u003cbr\u003eDr. Savage provides vital context for the common elements of dozens of outbreaks of mass hysteria in the past, their causes, their short and long-term effects, and the tactics of the puppet masters who duped gullible masses into fearing threats both real and imagined. By shining a light on the true nature and causes of American mass hysteria in the past, Savage provides an insightful look into who and what is causing dangerous unrest in our lives - and why.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Government\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeologies \u0026amp; Doctrines\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eConservatism \u0026amp; Liberalism\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Center Street","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45261685981374,"sku":"1546082913-1","price":24.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/81-Nz09Vp6L.jpg?v=1754080874"},{"product_id":"8418557257-kamala_harris-_kamalas_way","title":"Kamala Harris \/ Kamala's Way: La historia de la primera mujer vicepresidenta de estados unidos","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eReview      \u003cbr\u003e«Una biografía repleta de detalles.

That Lincoln Succeeded, Goodwin Demonstrates, Was Because Of His Extraordinary Ability To Put Himself In The Place Of Other Men, To Experience What They Were Feeling, To Understand Their Motives And Desires.

It was between the Clinton campaign and the Obama administration.\u003cbr\u003e The media–Democrat “collusion narrative,” which paints Donald Trump as cat’s paw of Russia, is a studiously crafted illusion.\u003cbr\u003e Despite Clinton’s commanding lead in the polls, hyper-partisan intelligence officials decided they needed an “insurance policy” against a Trump presidency. Thus was born the collusion narrative, built on an anonymously sourced “dossier,” secretly underwritten by the Clinton campaign and compiled by a former British spy. Though acknowledged to be “salacious and unverified” at the FBI’s highest level, the dossier was used to build a counterintelligence investigation against Trump’s campaign.\u003cbr\u003e Miraculously, Trump won anyway. But his political opponents refused to accept the voters’ decision. Their collusion narrative was now peddled relentlessly by political operatives, intelligence agents, Justice Department officials, and media ideologues―the vanguard of the “Trump Resistance.” Through secret surveillance, high-level intelligence leaking, and tireless news coverage, the public was led to believe that Trump conspired with Russia to steal the election.\u003cbr\u003e Not one to sit passively through an onslaught, President Trump fought back in his tumultuous way. Matters came to a head when he fired his FBI director, who had given explosive House testimony suggesting the president was a criminal suspect, despite privately assuring Trump otherwise. The resulting firestorm of partisan protest cowed the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel, whose seemingly limitless investigation bedeviled the administration for two years.\u003cbr\u003e Yet as months passed, concrete evidence of collusion failed to materialize. Was the collusion narrative an elaborate fraud? And if so, choreographed by whom? Against media–Democrat caterwauling, a doughty group of lawmakers forced a shift in the spotlight from Trump to his investigators and accusers.

This classic is now updated to cover Supreme Court decisions through 2003 and address essential questions of how to reconcile civil liberties—especially personal privacy—with national security in the aftermath of 9\/11.Henry J. Abraham and Barbara A. Perry continue to portray the intriguing human stories behind landmark constitutional law cases as they focus on fundamental issues of individual rights relating to freedom of religion, separation of church and state, freedom of expression, due process, and political, racial, and gender equality. This eighth edition of \u003ci\u003eFreedom and the Court\u003c\/i\u003e delineates recent pathbreaking developments by the Rehnquist Court in civil rights regarding abortion, affirmative action, capital punishment, computers and the Internet, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. It also analyzes the narrowly divided Court's controversial return to a more state-centered jurisprudence and to certain pre-New Deal, pro-business commitments. The book's coverage ranges widely to consider criminal rights in light of the 1990s war on crime, free speech cases involving everything from campaign finance to nude dancing, and equal protection pertaining not only to minority litigation but also to the \u003ci\u003eBush v.

Kunstler notes signs that global oil production has peaked and will soon dwindle, and argues in an eye-opening, although not entirely convincing, analysis that alternative energy sources cannot fill the gap, especially in transportation. The result will be a Dark Age in which \"the center does not hold\" and \"all bets are off about civilization's future.\" Absent cheap oil, auto-dependent suburbs and big cities will collapse, along with industry and mechanized agriculture; serfdom and horse-drawn carts will stage a comeback; hunger will cause massive \"die-back\"; otherwise \"impotent\" governments will engineer \"designer viruses\" to cull the surplus population; and Asian pirates will plunder California. Kunstler takes a grim satisfaction in this prospect, which promises to settle his many grudges against modernity. A \"dazed and crippled America,\" he hopes, will regroup around walkable, human-scale towns; organic local economies of small farmers and tradesmen will replace an alienating corporate globalism; strong bonds of social solidarity will be reforged; and our heedless, childish culture of consumerism will be forced to grow up. Kunstler's critique of contemporary society is caustic and scintillating as usual, but his prognostications strain credibility.

Like many twentysomethings, David Litt frequently embarrassed himself in front of his boss's boss. Unlike many twentysomethings, Litt's boss's boss was President Obama. At age twenty-four, Litt became one of the youngest White House speechwriters in history. Along with remarks on issues like climate change and criminal justice reform, he was the president's go-to writer for comedy. As the lead on the White House Correspondents' Dinner speech (the State of the Union of jokes), he was responsible for some of President Obama's most memorable moments, including Keegan-Michael Key's appearance as Luther, Obama's anger translator.  With a humorist's eye for detail and a convert's zeal, Litt takes us inside his eight years on the front lines of Obamaworld. In his political coming-of-age story, he goes from starry-eyed college student--a self-described Obamabot--to nervous junior speechwriter to White House senior staff. His behind-the-scenes anecdotes answer questions you never knew you had: What's the classiest White House men's room? What's the social scene like on Air Force One? How do you force the National Security Council to stop hitting reply-all on every e-mail?

In The Red And The Blue, Cable News Star And Acclaimed Journalist Steve Kornacki Follows The Twin Paths Of Bill Clinton And Newt Gingrich, Two Larger-than-life Politicians Who Exploited The Weakened Structure Of Their Respective Parties To Attain The Highest Offices. For Clinton, That Meant Contorting Himself Around The Various Factions Of The Democratic Party To Win The Presidency. Gingrich Employed A Scorched-earth Strategy To Upend The Permanent Republican Minority In The House, Making Him Speaker. The Clinton\/gingrich Battles Were Bare-knuckle Brawls That Brought About Massive Policy Shifts And High-stakes Showdowns--their Collisions Had Far-reaching Political Consequences. But The '90s Were Not Just About Them. Kornacki Writes About Mario Cuomo's Stubborn Presence Around Clinton's 1992 Campaign; Hillary Clinton's Star Turn During The 1998 Midterms, Seeding The Idea For Her Own Candidacy; Ross Perot's Wild Run In 1992 That Inspired Him To Launch The Reform Party, Giving Donald Trump His First Taste Of Electoral Politics In 1999; And Many Others. With Novelistic Prose And A Clear Sense Of History, Kornacki Masterfully Weaves Together The Various Elements Of This Rambunctious And Hugely Impactful Era In American History, Whose Effects Are Still Being Felt Today.--dust Jacket.

In Addicted To Outrage, New York Times Bestselling Author Glenn Beck Addresses How America Has Become More And More Divided—both Politically And Socially. Americans Are Now Less Accepting, Less Forgiving, And Have Lost Faith In Many Of The Country’s Signature Ideals, He Says. We Are Quick To Point A Judgmental Finger At The Opposing Party, Are Unwilling To Doubt Their Own Ideologies, And Refuse To Have Any Self-awareness Whatsoever. Beck States That Our Current Downward Spiral Will Ultimately Lead To The Destruction Of Everything America Has Fought So Hard To Preserve. This Is Not Simply A Republican Problem. This Is Not Simply A Democratic Problem. This Is Everyone’s Burden, And We Need To Think Like Recovering Addicts And Change. With A Nod To A Traditional Twelve-step Program, Each Chapter Encourages Self-reflection And Growth And Shows Us The Way To A More Hopeful, Happy Future.

Since then, he has received 19 Emmy awards, and been honored five times for excellence in consumer reporting by the National Press Club. In addition to his longer indepth reports for \u003ci\u003e20\/20\u003c\/i\u003e, Stossel is featured in a weekly segment called Give Me a Break. His book \u003ci\u003eGive Me a Break\u003c\/i\u003e was a national bestseller. He also hosts ABC s \u003ci\u003eJohn Stossel Specials\u003c\/i\u003e report for ABC radio and ABCNews.com. A graduate of Princeton University, Stossel lives in New York City with his wife and two children.\u003c\/p\u003e Publishers Weekly \u003cp\u003eABC News correspondent Stossel mines his 20\/20 segments for often engaging, frequently tendentious challenges to conventional wisdom, presenting a series of myths and then deploying an investigative journalism shovel to unearth truth. This results in snappy debunkings of alarmism, witch-hunts, satanic ritual abuse prosecutions and marketing hokum like the irradiated-foods panic, homeopathic medicine and the notion that bottled water beats tap. Stossel's libertarian convictions make him particularly fond of expos s of government waste and regulatory fiascoes, which are usually effective but lead inexorably to blanket denunciations of monster government and sermons on the wisdom of the market. Sloganeering-Myth: The EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) will make America less sexist. Truth: The EEOC will torment people and enrich lawyers-sometimes crowds out objectivity. The author's complacent glosses on overpopulation and global warming (we can build dykes and move back from the coasts) are especially glib and one-sided. Fans of Stossel's similarly opinionated bestseller Give Me a Break will eat up this new book, but other readers may wince when the author's ideology overshadows the facts. Author tour.

Empires were abolished and replaced by a global arrangement enforced by the U.S. Navy. With all the world's oceans safe for the first time in history, markets and resources were made available for everyone. Enemies became partners.\u003cbr\u003e We think of this system as normal-it is not. We live in an artificial world on borrowed time.\u003cbr\u003e In THE ACCIDENTAL SUPERPOWER, international strategist Peter Zeihan examines how the hard rules of geography are eroding the American commitment to free trade; how much of the planet is aging into a mass retirement that will enervate markets and capital supplies; and how, against all odds, it is the ever-ravenous American economy that-alone among the developed nations-is rapidly approaching energy independence. Combined, these factors are doing nothing less than overturning the global system and ushering in a new (dis)order. \u003cbr\u003e For most, that is a disaster-in-waiting, but not for the Americans. The shale revolution allows Americans to sidestep an increasingly dangerous energy market. Only the United States boasts a youth population large enough to escape the sucking maw of global aging. Most important, geography will matter more than ever in a de-globalizing world, and America's geography is simply sublime. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eSocial Sciences\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Twelve","offers":[{"title":"Used - Very Good","offer_id":45262671413438,"sku":"1455583685-3","price":16.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/51lwJ_Cz7zL._SL500.jpg?v=1754101371"},{"product_id":"1621573478-hillarys_america_the_secret_history_of_the_democratic_party","title":"Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eThe Best-selling Author Of Obama's America Characterizes Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton As A Nixonian Political Gangster Out To Control The Country's Wealth In A Scathing Critique That Makes Controversial Claims About Clinton Family Corruption,--novelist.

In November 2014, Thirteen Members Of The Biden Family Gathered On Nantucket For Thanksgiving, A Tradition They Had Been Celebrating For The Past Forty Years; It Was The One Constant In What Had Become A Hectic, Scrutinized, And Overscheduled Life. The Thanksgiving Holiday Was A Much-needed Respite, A Time To Connect, A Time To Reflect On What The Year Had Brought, And What The Future Might Hold. But This Year Felt Different From All Those That Had Come Before. Joe And Jill Biden's Eldest Son, Beau, Had Been Diagnosed With A Malignant Brain Tumor Fifteen Months Earlier, And His Survival Was Uncertain. Promise Me, Dad, Beau Had Told His Father. Give Me Your Word That No Matter What Happens, You’re Going To Be All Right. Joe Biden Gave Him His Word. Promise Me, Dad Chronicles The Year That Followed, Which Would Be The Most Momentous And Challenging In Joe Biden’s Extraordinary Life And Career. Vice President Biden Traveled More Than A Hundred Thousand Miles That Year, Across The World, Dealing With Crises In Ukraine, Central America, And Iraq. When A Call Came From New York, Or Capitol Hill, Or Kyiv, Or Baghdad—“joe, I Need Your Help”—he Responded. For Twelve Months, While Beau Fought For And Then Lost His Life, The Vice President Balanced The Twin Imperatives Of Living Up To His Responsibilities To His Country And His Responsibilities To His Family. And Never Far Away Was The Insistent And Urgent Question Of Whether He Should Seek The Presidency In 2016. The Year Brought Real Triumph And Accomplishment, And Wrenching Pain. But Even In The Worst Times, Biden Was Able To Lean On The Strength Of His Long, Deep Bonds With His Family, On His Faith, And On His Deepening Friendship With The Man In The Oval Office, Barack Obama. Writing With Poignancy And Immediacy, Joe Biden Allows Readers To Feel The Urgency Of Each Moment, To Experience The Days When He Felt Unable To Move Forward As Well As The Days When He Felt Like He Could Not Afford To Stop. This Is A Book Written Not Just By The Vice President, But By A Father, Grandfather, Friend, And Husband. Promise Me, Dad Is A Story Of How Family And Friendships Sustain Us And How Hope, Purpose, And Action Can Guide Us Through The Pain Of Personal Loss Into The Light Of A New Future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Government\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnited States\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eExecutive Branch\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Flatiron Books","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45262673182910,"sku":"1250171679-4","price":12.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71rrjgBHGBL.jpg?v=1754101389"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/collections\/books-politics-social-sciences-politics-government-united-states.oembed?page=5","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
