    Roadblocked - Joe Biden's Rocky...

    Joe Biden and Kamala Harris began their transition to the White House in the most unusual of circumstances: a global pandemic, a sitting president violently refusing to accept the results of the election, and a historic racial reckoning all posed profound questions about how they would staff large parts of the government and articulate policy remedies to pressing problems in just eleven weeks. 
     
     
     
    Heath Brown's Roadblocked is a revelatory look at the seventy days between the election and the inauguration with a focus on the ways the Biden-Harris transition team sought help and advice to overcome these obstacles. More than that, Roadblocked is also a gripping history of US presidential transitions over the past half-century that compares the transition teams of the last four administrations. 
     
     
     
    Biden-Harris transition leaders had a massive team with a stated aim to promote coordination, encourage teamwork, and avoid siloing staff. In the end, however, these aims were foiled by the conditions of the pandemic and steep hierarchies, which both reduced collaboration and information sharing. In the end, despite substantial changes in the Democratic coalition, newly influential groups armed with novel tactics, and great shifts in their political agenda, the Biden-Harris transition did not lead to transformation. Roadblocked explains why.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Recognize the religious nature of technological faith pervading modern society and examine whether this worship delivers salvation or merely promises it perpetually. This critical audiobook analyzes how technology acquired sacred status, complete with prophets, rituals, heretics, and apocalyptic narratives that structure belief without acknowledgment of its religious character. Learn why questioning technological progress triggers defensive reactions identical to challenging traditional faiths, revealing the depth of technological devotion in supposedly secular culture. The narrator traces how Enlightenment dreams of rational progress transformed into irrational faith that technology will solve all problems including those technology creates. Discover the messianic expectations projected onto artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and space colonization that promise transcendence through engineering rather than spiritual practice. Understand how tech industry rhetoric deliberately employs religious language and imagery to inspire devotion that overrides critical evaluation. This audiobook examines the costs of technological faith including environmental destruction, social fragmentation, and psychological damage accepted as acceptable sacrifices for progress. Learn to recognize technological religion operating in your own thinking and evaluate innovations on actual merits rather than faith-based assumptions. Essential listening for anyone concerned about technology's role in society and seeking perspective beyond both technophobic rejection and uncritical techno-optimism.

    Dr. Landowski was a Russianized Pole and lived in Russia. His father, a Colonel of the Russian Imperial Army, was shot by the Bolsheviks during the 1917 revolution. The life-story of Dr. Landowski is astonishing. He finished the Faculty of Medicine in Russia before the revolution and then studied two years at the Sorbonne in Paris, and he spoke fluent French. He was interested in the effects of drugs on the human organism, to help surgeons in operations. Being a talented doctor, he carried out experiments in this field and had achieved considerable results. The all-seeing NKVD (secret police) became interested in these works and easily discovered the real author. His specialty was very valuable for them. One day in 1936 there was a knock at the doctor's door. He was invited to follow, and he was never again allowed to rejoin his family. He was placed in the building of the chemical laboratory of the NKVD near Moscow. He lived there and was forced to carry out various jobs given to him by his masters, he was a witness at questionings, tortures and the most terrible happenings and crimes. This book is an exact recorded report of the questioning of the former Ambassador in France, C.G. Rakovsky during the period of the trials of the Trotskyists in the USSR in 1938, when he was tried together with Bukharin, Rykoff, Yagoda, Karakhan, Dr. Levin and others. The questioning took place in French by this agent. The doctor was present in order to put drug pills unnoticed into the glass of Rakovsky, to induce energy and a good mood. Behind the wall the conversation was registered on apparatus, and the technician who operated it did not understand French. Then Dr. Landowski had to translate into Russian, with two copies, for Stalin and Gabriel. Secretly he dared to make a carbon copy, which he hid anyway.
