    Why did the Biden White House celebrate Transgender Day of Visibility on Easter Sunday? Why is the bureaucracy prioritizing electric vehicles and less reliable forms of energy when Americans struggle to pay the bills amid historic inflation and higher gas prices? 
 
 
 
America's bureaucrats appear to live on a different planet from the working class in this country, and that's no accident. The Woketopus explains how America's elites are pulling the strings in Washington to prioritize their pet projects over the needs of the American people. O'Neil's prose reveals how the left's NGO apparatus pursues its woke agenda, maneuvering like an octopus by circumventing Congress and entrenching its interests in the federal government. 
 
 
 
Discover how the donors who helped prop up the anti-Israel protests on college campuses are impacting policy in Washington; pull back the curtain on how federal agencies became engines of cultural change; and find out how the Left's dark money influences federal law enforcement to demonize conservatives in an attempt to silence anyone who wants to criticize this agenda.

    German women played an essential role in the Nazi movement that outweighed the Nazi Party's propaganda that a woman's position was solely in the home as mothers and child-bearers. Thirteen million of the projected forty million German women in the Reich were active in Nazi Party organizations that promoted the regime's goals of racial purity, imperial conquest, and global war. The Nazi party was about as male-centered as any political party in history. Its ideas on women and women's rightful responsibilities in society were novel and, at best, radical. Despite this, the Party received widespread and active support among women in Germany at the time.This book investigates Magda Goebbels, Leni Riefenstahl, and Winifried Wagner and how they became enchanted by Hitler and obliged [his] Nazi philosophy. These three ladies were not ordinary Germans. Magda was hitched to Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Enlightenment and Propaganda and perhaps the most influential man of the Third Reich. An entertainer and famous movie chief, Leni was liable for a key publicity film. Winifred was hitched to author Richard Wagner's child and assumed responsibility for Wagner's inheritance. Hitler was captivated by every one of the women and used them to add his longing to reestablish Germany to its past brilliance. The women concurred with Hitler's longing to renew Germany's significance and perceived that once he became Chancellor, they would benefit enormously. These women didn't act as indicated by the standards of the times. They got out of the endorsed jobs relegated to ladies.

    Highland American Empires: Kingdoms in the Clouds (3 in 1) explores the rise, achievements, and legacies of three remarkable civilizations that flourished in the rugged highlands of South America: Tiwanaku, the Wari Empire, and the Tairona Civilization. These cultures adapted to extreme altitudes, developing sophisticated cities, engineering feats, and complex societies that influenced later Andean and Mesoamerican civilizations.   
Journey into the world of Tiwanaku, a spiritual and political center near Lake Titicaca, known for its massive stone structures, intricate carvings, and advanced understanding of agriculture and irrigation. Its influence spread across the Andean region, shaping cultural and religious traditions that endured for centuries.   
Discover the Wari Empire, one of the first true imperial powers of the Andes, which established extensive road networks, administrative centers, and urban planning techniques that prefigured the later Inca civilization. Their mastery of terraced farming and state organization allowed them to dominate the region for hundreds of years.   
Uncover the Tairona Civilization, a lesser-known yet sophisticated society that thrived in the mountainous regions of present-day Colombia. Renowned for their breathtaking gold craftsmanship, elaborate stone cities, and harmonious integration with the surrounding environment, the Tairona left a legacy that still resonates among their modern descendants, the Kogi people.   
From sacred temples to vast road systems, these highland empires demonstrated remarkable resilience and ingenuity. This book is perfect for history enthusiasts seeking to explore the hidden civilizations that once ruled the mountain landscapes of the Americas.
