  Day of Reckoning - How the Far...

  The United States has become an almost unrecognizable country—with millions in thrall to conspiracy theories, toxic populism, and the far right edging closer to total power—a dire threat to civil society and democratic institutions. While the MAGA movement was in remission due to Donald Trump's defeat in 2020, the fascist fringes have not just survived but have continued to thrive and burrow into the mainstream. The January 6th Capitol Riot prosecutions have done little to curb their enthusiasm for mayhem. 
   
   
   
  Trump's base in the Republican Party is committed to their candidate like never before. The institutionalization of racist voter suppression and the outdated logic behind the Electoral College means he could take back the White House. Apocalyptic messaging ensures the alt-right, anti-government, anti-LGBT, and white nationalist groups see the next election as a life-or-death struggle and are uniting to back the one person they can all agree on—guaranteeing another chaotic election. 
   
   
   
  In this chilling exposé, Wendling encounters Capital rioters, Covid deniers, QAnon supporters, and Proud Boys and uncovers the roots of a movement that threatens to shatter the foundations of democracy.

  FREEDOM: The Authorized...

  The nature of money as gates and letters revealed gives light to the nations of humankind to find in troubled times a historic luxury and modern necessity in the FML FIREs: these are the first constitutional centers of foundation money law governance and the prize of digital revolution. Through the architectures in the top layer of the double blue ON/E Divide, Intel-Modernized Governance from each city center in vertical international parallel selects for the lettered gates of economic FREEDOM and systemically discriminates against and shuts down the old capitalist unlimited extremist forms lettered as DEATH. Free artists, the Rolling service, Experts, Élites, Developers, Officers and Managers are the chosen occupational categories in the foundation money law range. Each HOME Medallion bank card that is encoded to FREEDOM is recognized by our constitutional conscience in the FML FIREs as constitutionally fit to transact. Each nation is redeemed with a capitalist ltd olympic spirit infused economy. As we no longer merely pay taxes to the discretion of full grey governments, the contingent capitalist excesses fall away and the suite of necessarily capitalist ltd institutions and businesses emerge. Prior to the digital revolution, the foundation money law was ungovernable and thus irrelevant: though now from each city central FML FIRE, Intel-Modernized Governance center-checks every Medallion Bank Card in transaction. The eyes behind the FML FIRE, in three charismatic forms, see through the top layer of the double blue ON/E Divide, travelling the speed of light to protect both the three and national class ruling structure from trespass and the first freedom of every man to earn and build HOME Wealth from trespass. It is finally with our HOME Patriot Medallions’ support that the ON/E Divide vertical boundary is built between the capitalist ltd economy that lives above and the five occupational evils that die below.

  Why Do Governments Fail? - A...

  The book: “Why Do Governments Fail?” Its subtitle is “A Thorough Investigation Of How Absolute Power/Power Retention, Economic Prosperity, Poverty, General Insecurity, Corruption, Elected Candidates' Quality, Electorates' Positive Voting Behavior, Electoral System, & Party Ethics Influence Governments' Success/Failure. (Using Real Case Studies) Revised Version” measured various incidences leading to government failures or successes. An ugly trend among unpatriotic politicians to maintain their selfish grip on power against the majority wishes of the citizenry continues to contribute to government failures in most African countries, such as Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Libya, etc., while the respect for tenure of political offices in most Western nations continues to strengthen democratic precedents and benefits.  
  Economic prosperity is a yardstick upholding the democratic health of most advanced nations, such as the United States, with centuries of democratic practice, compared to economically challenged nations where some undemocratic forces capitalize on their countries’ staggering economic conditions to seize power through illegitimate means, such as the military coups that occurred in Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali. 
  The people, because of the unbearable poverty level in their countries, decide to rally support for these military juntas, forgetting the ugly events that took place in Libya. They never once consider the fact that Gaddafi also started as a people’s hero before allowing himself to be blinded by absolute power. The people rejoicing and singing praises to these military juntas today have never thought of the fact that their celebrated military rulers might become their worst Gaddafi of tomorrow. For instance, these juntas are gradually metamorphosing into Gaddafi’s tactics by elongating their tenure in office and postponing their countries’ election timetables indefinitely.

  Economic Recovery Program

  Ronald Reagan

  On February 18, 1981, Reagan laid out his economic recovery program before a Joint Session of Congress. Reagan had previously outlined his recovery program in an Oval Office address on February 5, 1981, in which he displayed a dollar bill and 36 cents to show how inflation had reduced the value of a dollar since 1960.  
  Reagan made a further plea for enactment of his recovery program on April 28, 1981, following the assassination attempt on his life. Many economists credit this recovery program for reducing the inflation rate and igniting one of the longest and most robust economic expansions in U.S. history. 
  Reagan paints a grim picture of inflation, the national debt, and lagging productivity plaguing the economy. $41.4 billion of reduced spending is proposed with no reduction for “the poverty stricken, the disabled, the elderly, [and] all those with true need”. Subsidies of the synthetic fuel program, the Export-Import Bank, and the Economic Development Administration are targeted.  
  Block grants to states are proposed, along with changes to Medicaid, the space program, the Postal Service, and the Department of Energy. To counter the Soviet Union’s military build-up, defense is the one department with an increased budget. 
  A 10-percent tax cut for individual taxpayers is proposed for each of the next 3 years, along with increased depreciation allowances to allow business the capital needed to modernize.  
  We “must come to grips with inefficient and burdensome regulations, eliminate those we can and reform the others.”  
  To reduce inflation and interest rates, we need to slow the growth of our money supply. 
  This is our proposal for America’s new beginning. “I'm here tonight to ask you to join me in making it our plan.” Government “must not be used to regulate the economy or bring about social change.”

  Shortlisted for Best Non-Fiction or Fiction by a Parliamentarian at the Westminster Book Awards 2025From the revolutionary use of drones to staged coups, child abduction and psychological warfare, the war in Ukraine is like no other. It is a new form of total war, combining traditional military force with all the non-military tools of the Russian state. The 2022 invasion was just the next stage of a conflict that Russia has been fighting since 2005, using all the tactics at its disposal to control Ukraine's politics and wreak havoc.Combining over a decade of research, astute analysis and powerful stories from the front line, and including striking photographs of the people and scenes he encountered along the way, Bob Seely has written the authoritative guide to this new form of conflict. Travelling extensively throughout Ukraine, Seely meets figures such as Panoushka, the sniper who continues to fight despite the loss of her fiancé, and Ksenia, the seventeen-year-old who journeyed through Russia searching for her abducted younger brother. Above all, Seely argues that understanding Moscow's new total war is critical because Russia considers itself at war with the West as well as Ukraine, directing some of the tactics used there against us.Insightful, gripping and at times moving, this book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the unconventional methods Russia and other authoritarian states will use to challenge the West for global supremacy and undermine our beliefs, power and influence.
