Historia
Cyril Avery is not a real Avery - or at least that's what his adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn't a real Avery, then who is he? Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead.

Historia
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

The stamina he had to want and make a better life for himself.
Revisado: 07-23-24
Politics aside, I really liked this book. I’m from Ky but not Eastern Ky. And my family moved north for several reasons including to hopefully have a better life. Criticizing something you’ve never experienced or seen - are just empty words.

Historia
A soldier, former member of Congress, and a presidential candidate, Tulsi loves her country: "I answered the call of duty and took an oath, dedicating my life to supporting and defending those freedoms, both in uniform and in public office. I became a Democrat when I ran for office because I saw them as a party that stood up for the little guy and against the interests of big business and warmongers. I remained a Democrat for twenty years, albeit with an independent streak." Today that party is unrecognizable.

True Patriot
Revisado: 05-10-24
Wish every politician had the love of this country, the belief in the Constitution and the desire to keep God first as she does. What I see on both sides is love of fame and money and dishonesty. If America doesn’t wake up our kids and grandkids will no longer live in a country that has freedom. What a loss for the Democratic Party. They always run the good ones out.

Historia
In the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, Donald Trump and many around him, including certain other elected Republican officials, intentionally breached their oath to the Constitution: they ignored the rulings of dozens of courts, plotted to overturn a lawful election, and provoked a violent attack on our Capitol.

Revisado: 04-16-24
If you just want to believe Trump is a liar and wanted to destroy this country, this is the book to read. If you want the truth, research! The committee was not bi partisan. Pelosi denied the initial Republican members. Ask yourself why? She intended to direct this committee from 1 side only. Trump did request the Nation Guard 3 days prior and it was delayed by the Sec of the Army. I’ve learned in politics, you have to research both sides to get the truth. And unfortunately this book did not begin to give you the truth. It seemed to be a revenge book.

Historia
The January 6th attack is an unprecedented crime in American history. Sprawling and openly political, it can't be handled by the traditional rules and norms of law enforcement—threatening the very idea of justice and its role in society. A mass of online tipsters—"sedition hunters"—have mobilized, simultaneously providing the FBI with valuable intelligence. In this work of extraordinary reportage, Ryan Reilly gets to know would-be revolutionaries, obsessive online sleuths, and FBI agents, and shines a light on a justice system that's straining to maintain order in our polarized country.

Disappointed
Revisado: 10-25-23
I read this book because I read January 6 by Julie Kelly and I’m not sure this author researched the right facts for this book. I like to try and see both sides of political issues and I believe this book missed the mark by a long shot. So many incorrect or false statements made. There was no Russian collusion, the FBI did target persons/families on the right and the DOJ did interfere in social media. No police officer was killed by this group and reported info of what happened once they entered doesn’t match many other accounts and videos proven to be accurate. Read January 6th and make your own decision on what actually happened on January 6th. You just might be surprised.

Historia
Democrats, the news media, and many leading Republicans immediately blamed the roughly four-hour disturbance on President Trump. The president “incited an insurrection”, the American pubic was told. But one year later, the original narrative of what happened that day has crumbled while hundreds of Americans have been swept up in an unprecedented investigation led by Joe Biden’s Justice Department to punish them for their involvement in the January 6 protest. The public has been misled - and flat-out lied to - about that day. This book exposes them all.

I don’t understand why hating Trump gives them the right to lie and take away the rights of Americans. EVERY American should be required to read this book. And that includes ALL the media. Kudos to the author. Very well written.

Honest but Egotistical like Trump
Revisado: 04-26-23
I love her on Graham’s show and she has definitely lived a very fulfilling life. But her truths are just her beliefs. I found several of them as just misinformation that she obviously believes but that doesn’t make them truthful. But I think many people who talk of politics and religion speak that same language.

Historia
Jared Kushner was one of the most consequential presidential advisers in modern history. For the first time, he recounts what happened behind closed doors during the Trump presidency. Few White House advisors have had such an expansive portfolio or constant access to the president. From his office next to Trump, senior adviser Jared Kushner operated quietly behind the scenes, preferring to leave the turf wars and television sparring to others.

Exceptional person and book
Revisado: 10-02-22
I didn't realize how much Jared orchestrated and accomplished in his 4 years at the White House. He is one outstanding man, son, husband, father and American. If only everyone could put away their political differences and see people for their true worth, we would be a much stronger, united country.
