    Not intended to replace but to complement, this is a summary book of Red-Handed by Peter Schweizer, the New York Times best selling author. In his quarter-century as an investigative journalist, Peter Schweizer claims that this is the most terrifying investigation he has ever dared to tackle. 
    It's hardly unexpected that the Chinese government wants to penetrate American organizations. The amount of American elites prepared to assist the Chinese regime in its ambition for global hegemony, on the other hand, is entirely new. 
    Presidential families, Silicon Valley geniuses, Wall Street high rollers, Ivy League colleges, and even professional sportsmen are all prepared to put personal gain ahead of national security. 
    Six-time New York Times bestselling investigator Peter Schweizer reveals his most shocking revelations to date in Red-Handed, showing the covert transactions made by affluent Americans to assist China expand its military, technical, and economic strength. Moreover, many of these elites secretly feel that China's dictatorship is preferable than American democracy. 
    Schweizer and his team of forensic investigators combed through a large archive of worldwide company documents and court files for almost a year in order to uncover the covert transactions that China's facilitators thought would never be revealed. And, as Schweizer's previous exposés such as Profiles in Corruption, Secret Empires, and Clinton Cash shown, bad actors exist on both sides of the political divide. 
    Red-Handed will uncover the power link between the Chinese government and the American elites who do its bidding. It will be exhaustively researched, crisply delivered, and scary.

It works as planned and she proceeds to use it and abuse it, losing track of time in the process. Her best friend and co-worker, Erica, visits to investigate why Brie missed work, and Brie shares her new toy with her, allowing Erica to experience penetration as the giver for the first time.

    When Erica begins having trouble keeping her food down, Brie starts to suspect something's up. While she first fears her lover's gotten herself knocked up by someone else, she soon realizes the most likely culprit is actually... herself.

    Five speeches from the legendary orators Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Cicero, and Pericles.431 BCE: Pericles’ Funeral Oration is a valedictory and eulogy for the great age of Athenian democracy. Reported by Thucydides, it was given at the first annual public funeral for casualties of the Peloponnesian War. That war ended twenty-seven years later with the democratic government of Athens overthrown by an oligarchy known as The Four Hundred. 324BCE: Two speeches by Alexander the Great, reported by the historian Arrian in his Anabasis. Both speeches are a direct address to his army on embarking on a new campaign. The first was given in Opis, Mesopotamia, when rallying his armies to start a new campaign into Persia. The army took heart, and successfully conquered the Persian Empire, adding it to Alexander’s many existing conquests. The second speech is given after the first campaign is over. This time Alexander is ready to move into the Indian subcontinent. After travelling across the known world, the entire army took the offer to quit fighting and go home. This leaves Alexander understandably upset, and produces history’s most finely worded example of saying “After all I’ve done for you! Well, you can all get stuffed then, you bunch of ingrates. I hope you choke.”In 63BCE, the Cataline Conspiracy shook Rome. It was a deep shock to the Roman system, and risked civil war. Included here are speeches by the Consul Cicero and the only extant speech of Julius Caesar.Cicero’s First Speech is a rabble-rousing, impassioned, and slightly unhinged attack upon Cataline and his associates. It speaks to the outrage of the body politic and the masses.Caesar’s speech is a jurisprudential appeal to create no new laws to punish these crimes. Caesar argues that the republic would be ultimately harmed if they were not punished only under existing laws, as people remember the punishment but not the crime.

    Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, better known as Vladimir Lenin, was a Russian revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He served as the first and founding head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924 and of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1924. Under his administration, Russia, and later the Soviet Union, became a one-party socialist state governed by the Communist Party. Ideologically a Marxist, his developments to the ideology are called Leninism.
    Russia in the Shadows is a book by H. G. Wells published early in 1921, which includes a series of articles previously printed in The Sunday Express in connection with Wells's second visit to Russia (after a previous trip in January 1914 to St. Petersburg and Moscow) in September and October 1920.
    During his visit to Russia he visited his old friend Maxim Gorky, whom he had first met in 1906 on a trip to the United States, and who arranged Wells's meeting with Lenin.
    In a chapter (The Dreamer in the Kremlin) devoted to an interview with Lenin at the Kremlin Wells describes the leader and founder of Russian communism. Wells portrays Lenin as a pragmatic leader who "has recently stripped off the last pretence that the Russian revolution is anything more than the inauguration of an age of limitless experiment."
