After dropping out of the 2016 presidential race, Chris Christie stunned the political world by becoming the first major official to endorse Donald Trump. In Let Me Finish, Christie sets the record straight about his tenure as a corruption-fighting prosecutor and a Republican running a Democratic state, as well as what really happened on the 2016 campaign trail. Christie takes listeners inside the ego-driven battles for Trump's attention and reveals how the literal trashing of Christie's transition plan put the new administration in the hands of self-serving amateurs.

Unfreedom of the Press is not just another book about the press. Levin shows how those entrusted with news reporting today are destroying freedom of the press from within: “not government oppression or suppression”, he writes, but self-censorship, groupthink, bias by omission, and passing off opinion, propaganda, pseudo-events, and outright lies as news.

In a 2017 survey, presidential historians ranked Dwight D. Eisenhower fifth on the list of great presidents, behind the perennial top four: Lincoln, Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Teddy Roosevelt. Historian William Hitchcock shows that this high ranking is justified. Eisenhower's accomplishments were enormous and loom ever larger from the vantage point of our own tumultuous times.

Known for his network of conservative websites that draws millions of readers everyday, Andrew Breitbart has one main goal: to make sure the "liberally biased" major news outlets in this country cover all aspects of a story fairly. Breitbart is convinced that too many national stories are slanted by the news media in an unfair way. In Righteous Indignation, Breitbart talks about the key issues that Americans face, how he has aligned himself with the Tea Party, and how one needs to deal with the liberal news world head on.

In the first-ever history of the organization, New York Times best-selling author Annie Jacobsen draws on inside sources, exclusive interviews, private documents, and declassified memos to paint a picture of DARPA, or "the Pentagon's brain", from its Cold War inception in 1958 to the present.

The Doomsday Machine is Ellsberg's hair-raising insider's account of the most dangerous arms buildup in the history of civilization, whose legacy - and renewal under the Obama administration - threatens the very survival of humanity. It is scarcely possible to estimate the true dangers of our present nuclear policies without penetrating the secret realities of the nuclear strategy of the late Eisenhower and early Kennedy years, when Ellsberg had high-level access to them.

A history from WW II until the present
I was very impressed by this book. It first talks about the courage people had to stand up to the tyrants of WW II. It talked about why we could not be isolationist and had too help England because it was not being short sighted. Then it explained was each of the Presidents did during the Cold War and why it was significant.
Then it talked about post Cold War and the new threat we had to face with the various terroir eat group.
Next it went into all the things Obama is doing to destroy America. By the end of this book you think that he should be prosecuted for treason. At least that is what I thought.
The last part is about what the next president has to do to fix it and u can tell you it is a lot. I really thought it was an enjoyable and would highly recommend it to find out was is really going ion in this country.

Every American should read this book.
What did you love best about Exceptional?
It is a clear eyed and sober assessment of current national security and foreign relations policy.
What other book might you compare Exceptional to and why?
Thomas Sowell's Practical Economics. it has the same fact based, logical and consistent approach to the issues it addresses.
What about Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney ’s performance did you like?
It was low key, which helped to minimize what could otherwise have been a partisan tone.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The summary by Vice President Cheney.

I honestly appreciated this book. Thank you Vice President Cheney and Liz Cheney. Your words of wisdom and warning are much needed to be said. It's about time a book is written that explains the path of distraction our current president has put us on. I believe every American should take time to listen or read this book. You will have a better understanding of the chronological events that have happened that need immediate attention. The book reminds us of how "Exceptional" we as American truly are!

A must read to understand Obama's legacy & failure
An excellent book detailing what Obama and his administration did to the United States in 8 years, particularly in defense. A highly recommended read - Ronald Reagan would be spinning in his grave if he knew how that man undermined his 1980s accomplishments.
