Larson C: On Treason / LF

On Treason

A Citizen's Guide to the Law

From&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author and former ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul comes a clear-eyed look at how the rise of autocratic China and Russia are compelling some to think that we have entered a new Cold War—and why we must reject that thinking in order to prevail.&nbsp;Amid the constant party divisions in Washington, DC, one issue generates stunning consensus—China—with Republicans and Democrats alike battling over which party can take the most hawkish stance toward the ascendant superpower. Indeed, far from trying to avoid a new Cold War with China, many have embraced it, finding comfort in the familiar construct, almost willing it into existence. And yet, even as politicians and intellectuals race to embrace this Cold War 2.0, many of the perils we face today are distinctly different from those of the Cold War with the Soviets. The alliance between the autocracies of China and Russia, the nature of the ideological struggle, China’s economic might, the rise of the far right in the United States and in Europe, and the growing isolationism and polarization in American society—taken together these represent new challenges for the democratic world. Some elements of the Cold War have reappeared today, but many features of the current great power competition have no analogy from the past century.For decades Michael McFaul, former ambassador to Russia and international affairs analyst for NBC News, has been one of the preeminent thinkers about American foreign policy. Now, in this provocative work, he challenges the encroaching orthodoxy on Russia and China, arguing persuasively that the way forward is not to force our current conflict into a decades-old paradigm but to&nbsp;learn&nbsp;from our Cold War past so that democracy can again emerge victorious. Examining America’s layered, modern history with both Russia and China, he demonstrates that, instead of simplistically framing our competition with China and Russia as a second Cold War, we must understand the unique military, economic, and ideological challenges that come from China and Russia today, and the develop innovative policies that follow from that analysis, not just a return to the Cold War playbook.At once a clarion call for American foreign policy and a forceful rebuttal of the creeping Washington consensus around China,&nbsp;Autocrats vs. Democrats&nbsp;demonstrates that the key to prevailing in this new era isn’t simply defeating our enemies through might, but using their oppressive regimes against them—to remind the world of the power and potential that our democratic freedoms make possible.&nbsp;

China, Russia, America, and the New Global Disorder

Autocrats vs. Democrats

One of the Senate’s leading conservatives reveals the key approaches needed for the right to triumph over liberal lawyers and out-of-control judges.&nbsp;When Joe Biden took office, Eric Schmitt had been attorney general for just over two years and had been focused on tackling violent crime. As soon as he began to see the outrageous excesses of the Biden Administration, he and his team snapped into action, waging war on the Biden regime's stunning attempts at government overreach.Now, in&nbsp;The Last Line&nbsp;of Defense,&nbsp;Senator Schmitt takes readers behind the scenes of those battles for the first time, talks about the lessons learned, and shows how conservatives can keep winning in court and beyond. He looks at recent major cases, many of which he’s worked on:·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mask and vaccine mandates·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Student debt forgiveness·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restrictions on Second Amendment rights·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Soros-backed prosecutors·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Open borders·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Attacks on free speech·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The weaponization of government agencies&nbsp;&nbsp;Schmitt was attracted to the law because it gave structure and protection for regular folks to live their lives and pursue happiness, whatever that meant for them. In courtrooms, the rules still matter. Before judges and juries, lawyers can marshal facts and reveal the truth. This wasn’t always an easy fight. There were times when it seemed hopeless and even lonely.&nbsp;However, as&nbsp;The Last Line of Defense&nbsp;shows, Schmitt’s team prevailed on many of the issues that mattered most to the American people, and&nbsp;the teams that came after him will, too.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLEROne of America's greatest living literary legends invites you think for yourself in this compelling narrative of manipulation, power, and the human condition."Government, like Circe, turns men into swine," David Mamet writes in his latest political tour de force. Prepare to be challenged, enlightened, and entertained by The Disenlightenment as Mamet dissects the modern world with enthusiasm, wisdom, and lots of references to movies about the mafia.Once a stalwart of liberal thought, Mamet now turns his penetrating gaze on the cultural milieu that nurtured his artistic growth, revealing how America's elites have twisted our institutions into tools of manipulation. With his one-of-a-kind wit, he exposes the intricate dance between power and myth, unmasking how the elites manipulate media and culture to maintain control.The Disenlightenment fearlessly tackles topics from war to love, success to death, offering a fresh perspective on the human condition. His observations, ranging from the carnival-like nature of politics to the power of language, reflect a society where traditional values are under siege.This book is an opportunity to engage with one of the most provocative and insightful writers of the modern era. Whether you're a long-time Mamet aficionado or new to his work, The Disenlightenment promises to challenge your perceptions, stimulate your mind, and perhaps change how you view the world.

Politics, Horror, and Entertainment

The Disenlightenment

The fascinating untold story of one scientist’s pursuit of a legendary surfer in his quest to define human nature, written with the compelling drama and narrative insight of Why Fish Don’t Exist and The Lost City of Z.&nbsp;&nbsp;Deep in the archives of New York’s American Museum of Natural History sits a wardrobe filled with fifty plaster casts of human heads and faces that are a century old. How they came to be is the story of one of the most consequential, and yet least-known, encounters in the history of science.&nbsp;In 1920, the museum’s director Henry Fairfield Osborn traveled to Hawaii on an anthropological research trip. While there, he took a surfing lesson. His teacher was Duke Kahanamoku, a famous surf-rider and budding movie star. For Osborn, a fervent eugenicist, Kahanamoku was a maddening paradox: physically “perfect,” yet belonging to an “imperfect” race.Upon his return to New York, Osborn’s fixation grew. He dispatched young scientist Louis Sullivan to Honolulu to measure, photograph, and cast in plaster Kahanamoku and other Hawaiian people. The study touched off a series of events that forever changed how we think about race, culture, science, and the essence of humanity.&nbsp;In Capturing Kahanamoku, historian Michael Rossi draws on archival research and firsthand interviews to weave together a truly fascinating cultural history that is an absorbing account of obsession, a cautionary tale about the subjectivity of science, a warning of the pernicious and lasting impact of eugenics, a meditation on humanity, and the story of a man whose personhood shunned classification.A heady blend of Barbarian Days and The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Capturing Kahanamoku is a Victorian saga that explores very modern questions about humanity, the noble pursuit of knowledge, and dark compulsions to design nature.Capturing Kahanamoku includes 16-20 black-and-white photos throughout.

"... account of how the Mob has worked with America's Commander in Chiefs and have influenced the presidency for nearly a century"--Provided by publisher.

“Wiseguys and the White House is an eye-opening, authoritative, remarkably detailed exposé of the interplay between organized crime and our presidents, shockingly revealing how close we have come to Mob rule.”—Ronald Kessler, New York Times bestselling author of The Secrets of the FBI and The First Family Detail“Mobsters and presidents? The ties aren't just in pulp fiction. Eric Dezenhall tracks down the startling deals and deceptions that both sides might prefer to keep secret--from FDR to JFK to Trump.”—Susan Page,&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;Madam Speaker&nbsp;A “connected” account of how the Mob has worked with America’s Commander in Chiefs and have influenced the presidency for nearly a century.Gangsters and presidents have long captured the American imagination, but how much does the underworld actually affect presidential power? How deep are their “connections”? As Eric Dezenhall reveals in this eye-opening history, in some instances, one couldn’t have functioned without the other. From Franklin Delano Roosevelt to Richard Nixon to Joseph R. Biden, the mob has done presidential dirty work, including attempts to assassinate foreign leaders, harass America’s enemies, and put our chief executives in office.Wiseguys and the White House documents when mobsters and presidents have traded favors—and double-crossed each other, including:<ul><li>The deal cut with Lucky Luciano to protect the waterfront during World War II.</li><li>How the Chicago Outfit (and Frank Sinatra) got one Kennedy elected, only to be pursued by another.</li><li>How LBJ and the FBI used a mob hitman to hunt down the killers of Civil Rights activists in Mississippi</li><li>Reagan’s association with Lew Wasserman, the powerful and influential Hollywood mogul</li><li>Trump's blatant ties to construction and gambling cartels</li><li>Biden’s early links to “the Irishman” Frank Sheeran, the labor union official and enforcer for Jimmy Hoffa and Russell Bufalino.</li><li>And more</li></ul>Combining exhaustive research, including newly released government records and the private recollections of leading gangsters, Wiseguys and the White House offers insight into the myths about the power in America and the drive for recognition and respectability that unites consiglieri and commanders-in-chief alike.Wiseguys and the White House includes 65 black-and-white photographs throughout.

Wiseguys and the White House

"An examination of how un-elected activists use economic pressures to target their political opponents"-- Provided by publisher.

Trump may be in office, but the Democrats have laid the groundwork for permanent power.While the Biden-Harris administration pub­licly stumbled and flailed, their bureaucrats and allies outside of government have been turn­ing Republican nightmares into dystopian realities. Censoring the truth tellers. Debanking the politically disfavored. Firing the vaccine hesitant. Excluding the white, Christian, and conservative job applicants. Who needs a deep state when academia, big banks, corporations, and the healthcare system are willing to do what the deep state can’t?Now that they’re out of power in the White House and Congress, the Democrats are mobilizing in the shadows, working to make sure an election like 2024 never happens again. In They’re Coming for You, Jason Chaffetz reveals how Democrats have been planting the seeds of political control using unelected institutions that collect and weaponize pri­vate information. Most of us know we have traded our privacy for convenience. Most of us have cho­sen not to worry that the government will track our Facebook posts and arrest us. But what if an online retailer does? What if companies use that data to refuse to hire us, do business with us, or ship prod­ucts to us?They’re Coming for You lays bare the frighten­ing truth about how these institutions are collecting, buying, selling, and sharing our data without regard for our privacy, civil liberties, or national security. Republican political victories will ring hollow until this bureaucratic partnership with the nonprofit and private sectors is exposed and the power of the administrative state checked.

They're Coming for You

A debut essay collection by the inimitable cultural critic Maris Kreizman—an introspective, searing account of the life experiences that have pushed this former “good Democrat” even further to the political leftAt the heart of this funny, acerbic, and bravely honest book of essays is Maris Kreizman, a former rule follower and ambition monster who once believed the following truths to be self-evident: that working very hard would lead to admission to a good college, which would lead to a good job at a good company, which would then lead to personal fulfillment and a sense of purpose, along with adequate health care and eventual home ownership and plenty of money waiting in a retirement account. Like any good Democrat and feminist, she believed that if she just worked hard and played by the rules, she was guaranteed a safe and comfortable life.Now in her forties, the only thing Maris Kreizman knows for sure is that she no longer has faith in American institutions or any of their hollow promises. Now she knows that the rules are meant to serve some folks better than others; and, actually, they serve no one all that well—not even Kreizman. Disturbed by the depth and scope of the liberal myths in which she once so fervently believed, Kreizman takes readers on an intimate journey that revisits some of her most profound revelations, demonstrating that it’s never too late to become radicalized.With Kreizman’s signature wit and blunt self-reflection, and more than a little transformative rage, I Want to Burn This Place Down is a book for anyone who wishes they could go back in time to give their younger selves the real truth about the fractured country they have inherited—and the encouragement to rebuild something better in its place.

I Want to Burn This Place Down

"Tim Scott tells the stories of faith-motivated citizens who shaped every aspect of American society"--Provided by publisher.

New York Times bestselling author and Senator Tim Scott explains that in every state, in every decade, America has been built on faith.From our Founding Fathers to today’s heroes of faith, Christianity has been the bedrock of our nation's greatness. In One Nation Always Under God, South Carolina Senator Tim Scott shows how Christian values forged our legal system, educational institutions, healthcare, social services, and more.One Nation Always Under God is filled with inspiring stories of American Christians whose heroic advocacy has moved the nation forward, including<ul><li>Abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, who faced an angry mob trying to destroy his newspaper</li><li>Apollo 13 astronaut Jim Lovell, whose faith sustained him 200,000 miles from Earth</li><li>Dorothea Dix, who revolutionized how America dealt with mental health</li><li>Eddie Rickenbacker, an aging WWI ace who stepped up to command soldiers stranded in the Pacific in 1942</li><li>Norman Borlaug, a scientist whose discoveries saved a billion people from starvation</li></ul>...and more. These stories exemplify both the American spirit of adventure and the Christian love of serving others.Far from being confined to the Constitutional Convention or church pews, faith has been the driving force behind America's innovation, prosperity, and moral leadership, Scott asserts. While the forces of secularism and moral relativism try to ban God from the public square, they cannot truly remove Him from our national DNA.Senator Scott reminds us that we stand on the shoulders of giants—courageous Christians who faced seemingly insurmountable odds yet persevered through faith. Their stories will stir the heart and awaken the hero within you. One Nation Always Under God is more than a history lesson. It's a rallying cry for all who believe that America's promise is rooted in timeless biblical principles.&nbsp;
