Abramson’s research on Trump administration corruption positions the Ukraine scandal as the foreseeable culmination of years of clandestine machinations involving scores of players, from Beijing to Budapest, Ankara to Caracas, Warsaw to Jerusalem, Kyiv to Riyadh, and Moscow to DC.

Story
The story of Donald Trump’s rise to power is the story of a buried American history - buried because people in power liked it that way. It was visible without being seen, influential without being named, ubiquitous without being overt. Sarah Kendzior’s Hiding in Plain Sight pulls back the veil on a history spanning decades, a history of an American autocrat in the making. In doing so, she reveals how our continual loss of freedom, the rise of consolidated corruption, and the secrets behind a burgeoning autocratic United States have been hiding in plain sight for decades.

Story
When he opened the FBI investigation into Russia’s election interference, Peter Strzok had already spent more than two decades defending the United States against foreign threats. His career in counterintelligence ended shortly thereafter, when the Trump administration used his private expression of political opinions to force him out of the Bureau in August 2018. But by that time, Strzok had seen more than enough to convince him that the commander in chief had fallen under the sway of America’s adversary in the Kremlin.

Story
Donald Trump's campaign chairman went to jail. So did his personal lawyer. His long-time political consigliere was convicted of serious federal crimes, and his national security advisor pled guilty to others. Career intelligence agents and military officers were alarmed enough by the president's actions that they alerted senior government officials and ignited the impeachment process. Yet despite all this, a years-long inquiry led by special counsel Robert Mueller, and the third impeachment of a president in American history, Donald Trump survived to run for re-election. Why?

Publisher's Summary
Instant New York Times best seller
"A richly documented indictment of power and corruption." (Kirkus Reviews)
Through diligent research, Seth Abramson exposes a story that US media has largely missed: a pre-election geopolitical conspiracy involving Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Israel, and Russia that sought to put Trump in the White House - and succeeded.
In late 2015, convicted pedophile, international dealmaker, and cooperating witness in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation George Nader convened a secret meeting aboard a massive luxury yacht in the Red Sea. Nader pitched Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Emirati Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, and other Middle Eastern leaders a plan for a new pro-US, pro-Israel alliance of Arab nations that would fundamentally alter the geopolitics of the Middle East while marginalizing Iran, Qatar, and Turkey. To succeed, the plan would need a highly placed American politician willing to drop sanctions on Russia so that Vladimir Putin would in turn agree to end his support for Iran. They agreed the perfect American partner was Donald Trump, who had benefited immensely from his Saudi, Emirati, and Russian dealings for many years, and who, in 2015, became the only US presidential candidate to argue for a unilateral end to Russian sanctions and a far more hostile approach to Iran.
So begins New York Times best-selling author Seth Abramson’s explosive new audiobook, Proof of Conspiracy: How Trump's International Collusion Threatens American Democracy, a story of international intrigue whose massive cast of characters includes Israeli intelligence operatives, Russian oligarchs, Saudi death squads, American mercenary companies, Trump’s innermost circle, and several members of the Trump family as well as Trump himself - all part of a clandestine multinational narrative that takes us from Washington, DC, and Moscow to the Middle Eastern capitals of Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Jerusalem, Cairo, Tehran, and Doha. Proof of Conspiracy is a chilling and unforgettable depiction of the dangers America and the world now face.

“I Once Was Blind,” etc.
This work of investigative journalism is truly remarkable. It is impossible to put Trump’s conduct and the surrounding circumstances in context without a resource like this. This is an an adventure in thorough research that may provide more detail than you can absorb, but if you would like to understand exactly what we are facing as US citizens today, this is mandatory reading. You simply must read it.

A Grand Bargain
Proof of Conspiracy details recent developments in geopolitics, specifically as they relate to the United States, a Trump presidency, and a multinational plot referred to as the Red Sea Conspiracy (a.k.a. the Grand Bargain).
Abramson relies heavily on journalistic endeavors of other media outlets to inform his writings. For the most part, his claims are well sourced and usually corroborated, and he does a fine job indicating when he delves into speculation. I do wish there were less speculation considering the nature of the text, but at least it isn't presented as fact.
The audiobook provides annotations for each chapter at the end of the chapter. Perhaps it would be useful to give listeners the option to listen to annotations/footnotes as they arise...
Anyway, if you seek a thorough understanding of Trump's absurd and frequently criminal behavior, this book has a lot to offer!

Deep dive
Mr. Abramson continues to do a stellar job connecting dots and bringing to light information that is not otherwise covered by mainstream media outlets. This is not about partisan politics or tribalism. This is about the degradation of our country’s rule of law. I highly recommend this book. It was every bit as good, if not better than its predecessor, Proof of Collusion.

if you’ve found it hard to follow news reports, or haven’t tried, seth has taken news stories from all over the world to create a narrative of trump’s life of corruption. everyone needs to read this book! as more news stories emerge this book will give you the foundation to understand what’s happening with the american govt and it’s questionable ties to russia and the middle east. and how those connections are being hidden from the world. some of the connections are really convoluted and will require multiple listens/reads to fully comprehend but this is an amazing compilation to help everyone realize the full scope of the horror that is happening in america (and the world) thank you for your dedication to telling this story seth!!
