Review: The Great Flip by Donald J. Fraser

The Great Flip by Donald J. Fraser

Excavating an often overlooked but massively significant change in American political consciousness, The Great Flip by Donald J. Fraser is a brilliant examination of how the United States became so divided. The timeless dialectic of minimal government and individual capability vs. big government and collective responsibility is the foundation of American partisanship, and the crux of this meticulously crafted text.

The modern political landscape has turned into a battleground over the intended ideals of the founders 250 years ago, and this book brings readers back into the conversations, conflicts, and watershed moments that are still being referenced as precedent today. […]

Review: The Push Back by Lawrence Clayton

The Push Back by Lawrence Clayton

Boldly addressing hot-button issues that have long divided America, The Push Back by Lawrence Clayton offers a clarion call for the rejection of recent shifts in political, social, biological, and ethical thought. A starkly partisan collection of contemporary essays, this grouping of unabashed op-eds tackles everything from critical race theory and liberal media bias to white fragility, affirmative action, and cancel culture.

While claiming the title of academic and historian might suggest an impartiality in the reporting of facts, the author’s biases are immediate, relentless, and fully embraced. Not only does this text attempt to rewrite, whitewash, reframe, or eradicate […]

Review: Ordinary People, Extraordinary Elections by Lois Ann Nicolai

Ordinary People, Extraordinary Elections by Lois Ann Nicolai

Lois Ann Nicolai dives into another fascinating chapter of her own life in Ordinary People, Extraordinary Elections: A Memoir of International Democracy Builders, an insightful and passionately penned memoir.

Review: Trump You by Art Cohen with Dan Good

Trump You by Art Cohen

Capturing the deceitful nature and history of greed that has long defined America’s 45th president, Trump You: Promises, Lies, and Corruption: My Battle with Donald Trump’s Fake University by Art Cohen is a scathing personal memoir of one man’s titanic struggle against a capitalist giant.

Not only functioning as a fascinating, and at times painful-to-believe legal thriller, this book is also a detailed unraveling of the Trump University fraud – a clumsy yet lucrative scheme to cheat thousands of people with empty promises. The name “Trump” alone has become synonymous with a great many things in recent years, but this […]

China, China, Chyyna! by Chris Kanthan

China, China, Chyyna! by Chris Kanthan Author Chris Kanthan peels back the curtain on the next global leader in his deeply researched new book, China, China, Chyyna!: Greatest Disruption to American Century, an eye-opening exposé about the rise of an old empire.

After more than a century in power, the United States has fallen from grace on the world stage, the natural conclusion of political bickering and deep social divides. China has simultaneously been on a meteoric rise to power for the past three decades, leading the world in green energy development, production and manufacturing, trade, patent technologies, GDP growth, and much more.

Despite China’s […]

Make Our Country YUUUGE Again by Web Augustine

Make Our Country YUUUGE Again by Web Augustine Author Web Augustine welcomes readers to the satirical pseudo-world of Cameria in Make Our Country YUUUGE Again: Laira Succupy Ganders’ Unbelievable Journey with Tunnald Drump.

Like a history book on comically strong steroids, this novel traces the decisions, actions, crimes, and cruelties of the Drump administration from before his election to the height of the 2020 pandemic. While that covers a lot of historical ground, this dark comedy works as a comprehensive, albeit cartoonish, collection of the greatest crises of the past few years. With a wild cast of eccentric (and highly recognizable) characters, this no-holds-barred critique is sharp, […]

Trump Dog by Jim Tilberry

Trump Dog by Jim Tilberry A freelance artist lets himself be swept away by the whims of lunatics in Trump Dog, a satirical nugget of speculative fiction by Jim Tilberry.

When news of this uncanny silhouette breaks, a storm of publicity descends on his life from around the political spectrum, from Trump Tower lawyers and nosy neighbors to MATA hat-wearing fanatics (Make America Trumpy Again).

Poking plenty of fun at the sitting president, but also at blindly […]

Review: Behind Enemy Lines by Ray Keating

Behind Enemy Lines by Ray Keating

The journalistic side of Ray Keating’s writing comes to the fore in Behind Enemy Lines: Conservative Communiques from Left Wing New York. Boasting a traditional conservative voice that is measured, self-aware, confident, and persuasive, Keating’s arguments are original and thought-provoking, while many of the ideas explored in this book are surprisingly nuanced.

As a journalist, fiction writer, and general observer of life, Keating has written more than 8,000 columns and pieces over the past thirty years, remaining steadily in the lane of idyllic conservatism – family, God, and country matter above most else. Having read many of Keating’s Pastor Grant […]
