  Grand Old Unraveling - The...

  It didn't begin with Donald Trump. Since the time of FDR, the Republican Party has been home to conspiracy thinking, including a belief that lost elections were rigged. And when Republicans later won the White House, the party elevated their presidents to heroic status—a predisposition that eventually posed a threat to democracy. John Kenneth White proposes to explain why this happened—not just the election of Trump but the authoritarian shift in the party as a whole that led to the insurrection of January 6, 2021, and its aftermath. 
   
   
   
  White presents a clear and concise analysis of how the modern Republican Party came to be by tracing historical patterns that reach back to the 1930s. He argues that the rise of Republican authoritarianism has been decades in the making, going back to the desperation that took hold among party elites in the wake of twenty years of Democratic dominance between 1932 and 1952. The fear of losing that overtook the party during the Roosevelt period eventually led to an escalation of intrigue that included the rise of the John Birch Society in the 1950s and QAnon today. White traces the development of this culture of conspiracy theories within the GOP and explains how the emphasis on winning at any cost created a cult of personality and a willingness to seize power by any means necessary.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if your darkest desire was also the salvation of your relationship? 
  Emma and Rose have been together for ten years. Ten years of love... and routine, of silence, of looks that no longer burn. Until a suspicious message on Rose's phone changes everything. Instead of breaking apart, Emma lets herself be carried away by an unexpected flood: the thrill of watching. Of spying. Of obeying. 
  What starts as a suspicion turns into a dynamic of power, lust, and submission that awakens the deepest desires of both. Rose, dominant, cruel, and addicted to control, finds a new way to love through play, humiliation, and exposure. Emma, sweet, emotional, and insecure, discovers that being used, shared, and marked gives her something she thought she'd lost: pleasure... and belonging. 
  This is an intense, uncensored erotic story about a couple's relationship reborn through pain, surrender, and consensual perversion. Featuring explicit scenes, BDSM dynamics, cuckolding, fetishes, and moments of deep emotional connection, this novel is not for sensitive readers. 
  But if you dare to watch, feel, and surrender... welcome to this journey where love and humiliation dance to the same rhythm.

  Learning To Be Grateful

  According to the World Health Organization (WHO), mental health is a condition of well-being. Individuals recognize their own strengths, cope with daily challenges, work well, and contribute to their community.Gratitude has long been recognized as a desirable attribute that can improve one's well-being, from ancient religious texts to modern scientific evidence-based study. According to the evidence, the advantages of gratitude practice can be grouped into the following categories: increased happiness and life satisfaction; successful dealing with hardship; strengthened social relationships; improved health; and broadening civic, moral, and spiritual dimensions. On the other hand, gratitude is not an innate response to life conditions. It must be intentionally nurtured through gratitude-inducing activities.It's simple to see why focusing on what you have rather than what you don't is a good idea. Developing an appreciation for all of life's great qualities that you may have neglected allows you to focus on feelings of fulfillment, happiness, and abundance rather than longing, frustration, and bitterness. People who constantly reflect on their blessings are happier, better equipped to make decisions to improve their condition, and less prone to depression. People who start keeping a thankfulness journal regularly generally notice an improvement in their attitude. It's because gratitude lists are so popular. After all, they're a simple act that involves minimal effort yet yields tremendous effects.Most of us understand the importance of thanking those who assist us or simply acknowledging what we are grateful for in life. Gratitude has been connected to various benefits, including enhancing your immune system and sleep patterns, feeling more hopeful and experiencing more joy and pleasure, being more helpful and generous, and feeling less lonely and alienated, according to research. Gratitude is a means for people to appreciate what they already have rather than con

  A Real Right to Vote - How a...

  Throughout history, too many Americans have been disenfranchised or faced needless barriers to vote. Part of the blame falls on the Constitution, which does not contain an affirmative right to vote. The Supreme Court has made matters worse by failing to protect voting rights and limiting Congress's ability to do so. The time has come for voters to take action and push for an amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee this right for all. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on troubling stories of state attempts to disenfranchise military voters, women, African Americans, students, former felons, Native Americans, and others, Richard Hasen argues that American democracy can and should do better in assuring that all eligible voters can cast a meaningful vote that will be fairly counted. He shows how a constitutional right to vote can deescalate voting wars between political parties that lead to endless rounds of litigation and undermine voter confidence in elections, and can safeguard democracy against dangerous attempts at election subversion. 
   
   
   
  The path to a constitutional amendment is undoubtedly hard, especially in these polarized times. A Real Right to Vote explains what's in it for conservatives who have resisted voting reform, and reveals how the pursuit of an amendment can yield tangible dividends for democracy long before ratification.
