Beschreibung

West Virginia Delegate Derrick Evans never expected to become the face of political persecution when he peacefully entered the Capitol building on January 6, 2021. In this powerful and deeply personal memoir, Evans takes readers on his harrowing journey from being a newly-elected Republican representative to becoming a federal inmate labeled as an "insurrectionist."
 
After attending the "Stop the Steal" rally in Washington DC, Evans found himself swept into one of the most controversial events in recent American history. His ten-minute walk through the east side of the Capitol—captured on his own social media livestream—would lead to his arrest by the FBI in front of his children, the loss of his political position, and ultimately, a felony conviction and three months in federal prison.
 
"Political Prisoner" provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes account of the legal ordeal that consumed nearly two years of Evans' life as he fought against what he describes as politically-motivated prosecution. With unflinching honesty, Evans recounts the trauma inflicted on his young family, the harsh realities of prison life, and his unwavering determination to stand by his beliefs despite enormous personal cost.
 
More than just a personal story, this memoir raises profound questions about freedom of speech, equal application of justice, and the weaponization of federal agencies against political opponents in modern America.
 
If you enjoyed "Hostages of the Regime," "January 6: How Democrats Used the Capitol Protest," and "American Injustice," you'll love "Political Prisoner: The Untold Story of January 6."

    In nature, plants and animals seek food in order to survive. Plants and animals also need power, to get food, and not become food. An animal without power will not eat and be soon eaten by others. Animals increase their power by collaborating with each other in herds, packs, and hives. Competition helps the stronger and faster get a greater share of the food. Collaboration helps the group; competition helps the mighty.
    
    Culture exists to provide food and power to humans. But for humans, food and power take very complex forms, as hunger and insecurity are fueled by imagination. For humans, that which satisfies human hunger is Lakshmi, the goddess of food and fortune, whose name is derived from the word laksha, or target. She is what we value and hoard the most. Durga is the goddess of security and power. Like Lakshmi, she too can be stored, stolen, and shared. Her name is derived from durg, or the fortress. Then there is Saraswati, goddess of knowledge, who helps humans discover, invent, and innovate new forms of food, and security.
    
    In this chapter, we will focus on the goddesses, Lakshmi, Durga, and Saraswati, who embody resources, power, and knowledge that humans exchange in the market.

    ALFRED HITCHCOCK 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
      
    CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
      
    Alfred Hitchcock was an influential English film director, known as the "Master of Suspense". His career spanned six decades, during which he directed over 50 feature films. Hitchcock began in the film industry as a title card designer, and his directorial debut was in 1925 with The Pleasure Garden. His early thrillers, like The Lodger (1927), The 39 Steps (1935), and The Lady Vanishes (1938) gained him recognition. He moved to Hollywood in 1939, producing successful films such as Rebecca (1940). Hitchcock's style is characterized by suspense, visual storytelling, and recurring themes like mistaken identity and voyeurism. He was also known for his cameo appearances in his films and his TV series, Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Hitchcock never won an Academy Award for Best Director. 
      
    CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
      
    Alfred Hitchcock's father sent him to the local police station with a note when he was five, and the police locked him in a cell for a few minutes, which gave him a lifelong fear of law enforcement. He was so scared of the law that he refused to drive a car in case he got a parking ticket. 
      
    Hitchcock was fascinated by maps and train timetables, and he could even recite all the stops on the Orient Express. Many of his films include rail or tram scenes, and he would whisper London tram route names based on the clapperboard numbers. 
      
     Hitchcock worked as a technical clerk at the Henley Telegraph and Cable Company, and then in the advertising department, which he called his "first step toward cinema". He also enjoyed reading trade papers and watching films by Charlie Chaplin, D.W. Griffith, and Buster Keaton.

    I recently saw several predictions by well-known seers of the future that there will be a huge natural disaster in June/July of 2025. 
    Whether a disaster from a comet crashing into the Earth, a huge volcanic eruption or earthquake or a nuclear war; the likelihood of humanity suffering a period of global cooling is that it will happen—and has already happened in the past. 
    Disasters could actually cause global cooling for months or years. In trying to lookup any books on how to individuals and society should handle global cooling I couldn’t find anything. So I decided to write a manual dealing with this issue. 
    This manual has five parts: 
    Part One-Understanding the Threat 
    Part Two-Preparation and Prevention 
    Part Three-Surviving the Freeze 
    Part Four-Rebuilding in the ICE 
    Part Five-Looking Forward 
    Historical examples of how mankind dealt with global cooling in the past are included as well as lots of advice on how to recognize this process happening to our world, and how to deal with the consequences. 
    Survival for both individuals and society, and how to plan for the future. 
    I hope this situation never happens in our lifetimes but this

It’s based on an understanding of the principles, and there are certain rules to follow if one wants to achieve positive results in his or her life. This book is going to help you better understand what Buddhism is, how it can benefit you, and how you can apply it in your daily routine.
