The Impeachment Power - The Law...

Keith E. Whittington

We are witnessing an unprecedented moment in American politics in which impeachments are increasingly common. In today's partisan environment, it is more vital than ever that government officials, scholars, and ordinary citizens understand what an impeachment can reasonably be expected to accomplish. In this incisive and accessible book, Keith Whittington provides needed clarity on the constitutional power of impeachment. 
 
 
 
Drawing insights from American and British history, congressional practice, and the language of the Constitution itself, Whittington shows how impeachment is a tool for checking abuses of elective office and defending constitutional norms. While we have come to associate impeachment with the presidency, it can be used to remedy gross misconduct by an array of officers of the federal government. Whittington cautions against abusing this immense and consequential power to settle political scores, demonstrating how it undermines the independence of the branches and makes Congress the seat of political power. 
 
 
 
A must-listen for the informed citizen, The Impeachment Power argues that impeachment is ultimately a political instrument and gives us the perspective we need to recognize when an impeachment might be useful and when we are better served by looking for alternative ways to solve our political problems.

Summary: I'm Glad My Mom Died -...

Brooks Bryant

Disclaimer: This is NOT the Official Book, but a Summary! Also Please Note that this does NOT accompany the official book.
Dive into the moving and provocative recapitulation of "I'm Glad My Mom Died", a memoir filled with gut-wrenching honesty and remarkable wit. Authored by Jennette McCurdy, celebrated star of popular shows like iCarly and Sam & Cat, this work recounts her battles with the dark side of childhood stardom— from grappling with eating disorders and addiction, to navigating the tempestuous relationship with her demanding mother, and finally discovering her path to personal freedom.
At a tender age of six, Jennette McCurdy was thrust into the limelight, auditioning for roles she barely understood, all to fulfill her mother's ambitious dream of seeing her daughter shine on screen. The young star's life was dictated by what her mother termed as 'calorie management', forcing her into extreme dietary practices, checking her weight with unhealthy frequency, and constantly battling self-image issues. Subjected to severe parental control, including intrusive practices like sharing her personal diaries and emails, and even overseeing her bathing until she was sixteen, Jennette's life was anything but normal.
In this condensed version of her memoir, journey with Jennette as she learns to challenge her mother's influence, confront her issues, and reclaim control of her life. This summary book presents a distilled, yet potent exploration of a child star's challenging journey to self-liberation. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a reminder that it's never too late to rewrite your own story.
