  Palliative Parasites: A Field Guide to the Top of the Grifting Food Chain 
  For decades, a vast middle layer of professional symptom-managers — NGOs, bureaucrats, consultants, academics, and nonprofit lifers — has turned human misery into one of the most reliable, risk-free grifts in history. They have turned empathy into an asset class and compassion into a line item in a grant proposal. 
  These Palliative Parasites (PPs) don't solve problems. They manage them. Perpetually. They speak fluent Scrabble Babble, trade in virtue signaling, and specialize in the Infinite In-Between - the zone where problems are never allowed to die and never actually get solved. 
  With one hand they demonize the top, with the other they bribe the bottom, and in between they skim their fat 90% cut — trillions of dollars in grants, donations, and taxpayer money that rarely reaches the sidewalk. From California's $24+ billion homelessness black hole to the Mississippi TANF diversion scandal, from the trans-in-women’s-sports circus to the trillion-dollar DEI industrial complex, this book names the players, follows the money with zero mercy, and exposes the brutal Failure Paradox, i.e., the more things fail, the more profitable the failure becomes for the people paid to “fix” it. 
  But this is not just another rant against the system. Stuart M. Williams offers a genuine cure. The Sovereign OS is the world's first human and community-centric socioeconomic operating system that turns Non-Performing Assets into Performing Assets. Sovereign OS has already delivered measurable results in Charleston, SC and Muncie, IN, and it has changed the lives of thousands of people. 
  It is time to flush out the choke points that have been hiding in plain sight for decades. This is where it begins.

  Originally written in 1944 by the Office of Strategic Services (O.S.S.), the wartime predecessor to the CIA, the Simple Sabotage Field Manual is a fascinating and often startling guide to subtle disruption during World War II. Designed to be used by ordinary citizens behind enemy lines, this manual offered clever, low-risk ways to undermine operations—from misfiling paperwork to tampering with machinery and stalling meetings. 
  Both a historical curiosity and a chillingly relevant study in passive resistance, the manual outlines how small acts of obstruction—carried out consistently and quietly—could grind an enemy’s war machine to a halt. With its dryly practical tone and surprising creativity, Simple Sabotage Field Manual reveals the hidden tactics of psychological warfare, bureaucratic interference, and grassroots defiance. 
  Narrated with gripping precision by Russ Jankovitz, this audiobook brings the shadowy ingenuity of World War II espionage to life, offering listeners a window into how everyday people were weaponized to fight tyranny from within.

  In this 2025 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Wheatley discusses the importance of creating "islands of sanity" in disruptive times to restore and awaken the human spirit. She emphasizes the need to face reality, understand the current landscape, and contribute meaningfully. Wheatley outlines five stages for solving complex problems: cooling (listening), enrichment (understanding diverse perspectives), magnetizing (inviting missing voices), compassionate destruction (letting go of old patterns), and pattern language (creating healthy groups). She advocates for conscious communities based on shared values and human qualities, and stresses the importance of being present, curious, and grateful. 
  Margaret J Wheatley, Ph.D. is an internationally acclaimed writer, speaker, and teacher. She began caring about the world's peoples in 1966 as a Peace Corps volunteer in postwar Korea. She is cofounder and President Emerita of The Berkana Institute, a charitable foundation that works with people around the world to strengthen their communities using the wisdom and wealth already present in their people, traditions, and environment. She is a guide in leading people back to understanding who we are as humans, being able to create the conditions for our basic qualities of generosity, contribution, community, and love. She is a grand contributor in creating an Island of Sanity in the midst of wildly disruptive seas.   
  Her books include: 
  Leadership and the New Science (Berrett-Kohler 1998) 
  Turning To One Another: Simple Conversations to Restore Hope in the Future (Berrett-Kohler 2009) 
  Perseverance (Berrett-Kohler 2010)  
  Restoring Sanity: Practices to Awaken Generosity, Creativity & Kindness in Ourselves and Our Organizations (Berrett Kohler 2024)

  Democracy Under Fire - Donald...

  Before Trump even ran for President, his disdain for the rules, procedures, and norms of American democracy and the US Constitution was well-known and led prominent Republicans to repudiate him as "unfit" for the GOP nomination. Given the clear-eyed assessment of candidate Trump, why did the Republican Party nominate him as its presidential candidate in 2016 and then stand by him during the next four years? 
   
   
   
  Much of the attention paid to Trump's rise to power has focused on his corrosive personality and divisive style of governing. But he alone is not the problem. The vulnerability is much broader and deeper. The ascendance of Trump is the culmination of nearly 250 years of political reforms that gradually ceded party nominations to small cliques of ideologically-motivated party activists, interest groups, and donors. 
   
   
   
  In Democracy under Fire, Lawrence Jacobs provides a highly engaging history of political reforms since the late-eighteenth century that over time dangerously weakened democracy, widened political inequality as well as racial disparities, and rewarded toxic political polarization. Jacobs's searing indictment of political reformers concludes with recommendations to restrain the unbridled ambition of politicians who thrive on division and instead generate broad citizen engagement with tangible policy making.
