The Cult of Ziz

The Rise of Trans Extremism in America

De: Andy Ngo

A shocking work of political true crime from the only journalist fearless enough to expose the hidden networks of radical leftist extremism in America.

As a New York Times bestselling author and one of the world’s foremost investigative reporters on Antifa and left-wing extremism, Andy Ngo has spent years tracking the rise of violent ideologies that the mainstream media struggles to acknowledge. Now, he turns his investigative focus to an even more elusive, mysterious and dangerous threat: the secretive death cult of “Ziz,” a transgender leftist anarchist terror group linked to eight deaths, including the killing of a U.S. Border Patrol agent and a key trial witness.

With exclusive access to court records, witnesses, and family members, and through deep-dive investigative reporting, Ngo unravels the chilling story of how a fringe online movement transformed into a real-world, international violent cult. Through meticulous research and on-the-ground reporting, he exposes the cult’s ideology, recruitment tactics, and its connection to broader radical leftist movements. As authorities scramble to track down the group’s fugitive members, Ngo pieces together the cult’s deadly footprint, from alleged assassinations to execution-style killings, revealing how its computer science “genius” leader, the enigmatic Jack LaSota—known as “Ziz”—manipulates followers into carrying out horrific acts of violence.

This book is not just an exposé—it is a warning. As gender extremism and leftist ideologies continue to radicalize and grow unchecked, America faces the risk of more groups like the Ziz cult emerging. With law enforcement hamstrung by political pressure and mainstream media refusing to investigate, Ngo stands alone in sounding the alarm. His fearless reporting has already changed the national conversation on Antifa. Now, he delivers the definitive account of one of the most shocking and underreported violent threats in America today.
