Acerca de esta escucha
Fat Tony, as Mayor, has a vise grip on all political and business activity in this town. Full of racism and corruption, his political machine operates with impunity. Accepting bribes and using the police to abuse Black citizens who dare enter the community has been a winning formula for this crooked mayor anticipating reelection in this mostly white enclave.
Combine that with the mayor’s Mafia connections and its clear taking on the Fat Tony mob could be hazardous to one’s health. Despite this, an idealistic young attorney challenges him in the next mayor's race. The naïve newcomer faces destruction of his income, his family, and maybe even his life as this thriller crescendos in that fateful November election night. Everything rides on the election result.
You will cheer the challenger's successes and bite your nails as he faces down the threats...if only he can hang on until the bitter end. He's losing his confidence and his courage as the clock clicks down to this unbelievable ending.
The last few chapters race at blurring speed as the listener's adrenaline gets the heart pumping toward an amazing climax.
The best final three chapters in American literature!

Few figures in American politics have seen more and said less than Mitt Romney. An outspoken dissident in Donald Trump’s GOP, he has made headlines in recent years for standing alone against the forces he believes are poisoning the party he once led. Romney was the first senator in history to vote to remove from office a president of his own party. When that president’s supporters went on to storm the US Capitol, Romney delivered a thundering speech from the Senate floor accusing his fellow Republicans of stoking insurrection.

Once described by The Washington Post as "the most interesting mayor you've never heard of", Pete Buttigieg, the 36-year-old Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged as one of the nation's most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011, Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a "dying city", and transformed it into a shining model of urban reinvention.

In The Long Slide, Tucker delivers a few of his favorite pieces - annotated with new commentary and insight - to memorialize the tolerance and diversity of thought that the media used to celebrate instead of punish.

Baltimore Congressman Elijah Cummings was known for saying, “We’re better than this.” He said it in Baltimore, a city on the verge of explosion over police treatment of citizens. He said it in Congress when microphones were shut down, barring free speech. He said it when the president flaunted his power and ignored the Constitution. He said it when the president resorted to bullying, name-calling, and feeding racial divisions. We are better than this. He continued to say it until his final days last October.

Mike Pence spent more hours in the Oval Office than any of his predecessors. On the surface, the affable evangelical Christian from a gas-station-owning family in Indiana wouldn’t seem to have much in common with a brash real estate mogul from New York. But the unlikely duo formed a tight bond. So Help Me God is the chronicle of the events and people who forged Mike Pence’s character. This is the inside story of the Trump administration by its second highest official—what he said to the president and how he was tested.

Senator Jon Tester is a rare voice in Congress. He is the only United States senator who manages a full-time job outside of the Senate - as a farmer. But what has really come to distinguish Tester in the Senate is his commitment to accountability, his ability to stand up to Donald Trump, and his success in, time and again, winning red state voters back to the Democratic Party.

Mazie Hirono is one of the most fiercely outspoken Democrats in Congress, but her journey to the U.S. Senate was far from likely. Raised on a rice farm in rural Japan, she was seven years old when her mother, Laura, left her abusive husband and sailed with her two elder children to Hawaii, crossing the Pacific in steerage in search of a better life. Though the girl then known as "Keiko" did not speak or read English when she entered first grade, she would go on to serve as a state representative and as Hawaii's lieutenant governor before winning election to Congress in 2006.

As the rookie Republican governor of deep-blue Maryland, Larry Hogan had already beaten some daunting odds. A common-sense businessman with a down-to-earth style, he had won a long-shot election the Washington Post called "a stunning upset". He'd worked with cops and neighborhood leaders to quell Baltimore's worst rioting in 47 years. He'd saved his state from fiscal catastrophe, winning praise from Democrats, Republicans, and independents.

A True David and Goliath Story
This is a memoir that reads like a political thriller.
It’s the story of a corrupt good ol’ boy network called the coalition against a young, upstart lawyer. It tells of larger than life characters, like Mayor Fat Tony and a heavy-handed law director named Rocco, along with almost unbelievable tales of political corruption, fraud, racial persecution, threats, coercion, and mafia-style hits.
The author does an excellent job with the narration.
