“Government is about coercion. Limiting government is the single most important instrument for guaranteeing liberty.”
Dr. Walter E. Williams (1936 - 2020) rose from a childhood in the housing projects of Philadelphia, that he shared with his sister and mom, to international prominence as an author, economist, distinguished professor, and syndicated columnist.

pickHow do you get someone to believe a lie? You create distractions, change the language, look for vulnerabilities, and you repeat the lie again, again, and again. We are living in a time of horrific events that are being erased right in front of our eyes, regardless of hard evidence (video, photograph, eye witness). Document everything while you still can. Speak the truth, hold them accountable! An important read as we watch democracy fade.
Book mail today.
I need to read this regardless of what I've already started. In the current political situation in the US, I think a lot of folks should read this.
Just saying.

pickThis book spells out Trumps Russia and Putin connections for decades leading up to his winning the election in 2016. It also brings to light the infiltration of Russia into many aspects of the Republican Party and on a lesser scale into the Democratic Party. Trump is joined at the hip to Putin. Just as Victor Orban is. Russia is a huge factor in American and European politics. Deeply depressing and well documented book.
pickI had this book on hold since before the election 😳 and finally got it last month. It was a tough, maddening, heartbreaking and frightening read. Not only because of the blatant lies the American public are being fed and the ridiculous rewriting of facts to cover up the real truth, but because so many people believe it all. 🤯 It‘s a shame those who need to read this book never will.
P.S. Audiobook is wonderfully narrated by Rachel Maddow.
