Publisher's summary

Bestselling author and former Speaker Newt Gingrich reveals how Big Government Socialism is crippling America—and offers strategies and insights for everyday citizens to overcome its influence.

In communities across our country, Americans are debating Critical Race Theory, vaccine mandates, tax increases, rising inflation, online censorship, and a host of other important issues.

We have serious decisions to make about the future of our nation. Do we want big government, or limited government? Do we want to work hard and keep what we earn, or do we want government to decide how our money is spent? Do we want our children to learn how to think in school, or be told what to think? Do we want to make our own decisions about health care, or should the federal government dictate our treatments? Should American companies compete on a level playing field, or should Washington decide who wins and loses?

Speaker Gingrich analyzes these questions, describes the polling that shows what the American Majority wants, and illustrates how we can create a safer, more prosperous, and secure future for America.

In Defeating Big Government Socialism, Gingrich explains how Americans can reject the values of Big Government Socialists who have taken over the modern Democratic Party, big business, news media, entertainment, and academia. He lays out a roadmap to save America’s future and ensure it remains the greatest nation on earth.

Every American Should Read

If you live in the United States and enjoy its freedoms and liberties then you should be trying to ensure that they continue to be available to everyone including the next generation.

I realize that it's hard to fathom what you can do as an individual to help this country get back on track to be the great country that it has been in the past.

Listening to this book will help you to understand what truly is happening to our government today and how it came to be. If you believe like I do that this country is not going in the direction that it should be and socialism is not an option, Newt helps us to understand what we should be doing to make changes.

Not only do I believe that every American should read this book, I believe that it's imperative that every elected official should study this book carefully. There are too many people in Washington that don't understand how close we are to losing the freedoms and liberties that we have. Republicans, Democrats, and independents all need to find a way to work together and focus on "We the people" instead of we who have the power.

I don't understand how people that have the power to make this country better don't take advantage of that. Instead, they get into public office and use the power to make themselves and this country look foolish. I'm not sure if they do it on purpose or if there's some sort of peer pressure that causes them not to stand up and act with integrity and honesty.

Newt Gingrich Understands What it Takes to Keep the U.S. Free

We face a crisis and crossroad that will determine whether we will remain a free nation governed by our Constitution and rule of law, or whether we will sacrifice our freedom to those power hungry individuals and corporate entities, i.e. the liberal woke crowd, that would make us subservient to their wishes and rule regardless of our laws. The book explains this phenomena in a way that anyone that appreciates the freedoms we still have should be able to understand.
The audio version would be better read by the author, Newt Gingrich, himself.

Substance vs.history .

The substance is very insightful however the history lesson allows the free thinking mind see how not to make the same mistake twice.

Must Read if you love America!

Newt provides insights into the battle we must wage to take back our country from the political powers who have stolen power from the people. As a former Speaker of the House and student of history, Newt lays out how We The People can begin to turn things around so the government Works for us and we can regain and preserve the freedoms and liberties upon which America was founded.

Where will US go

I fear we are in the next generation moving away from freedom and Newt lays out the challenges and opportunities to turn away Socialism. I pray parents and grandparents will take the challenge to ‘train up’ the next gens in the way they should go to preserve our and their freedoms

A must read for everyone.

America is losing its way. Newt Gingrich book condenses so much historical material that is so relevant to America’s existence and survival in these pages that it should be required reading in every school and university in America. Thank you Mr. King Rick for your contribution to our great nation.
