Book excerpt: The actions by President Obama concerning mandates in his healthcare bill sent shock waves through the nation as a thinly veiled threat to religious freedom. Our nation became weak by not living our faith. Tyranny is rising up to fill the void. Our Judeo-Christian principles must be applied into the very fabric of our institutions, governments, and public offices. The Tea Party at first tried to stop the advance of tyranny, but have said no to God, and will fade and falter. In order for Christian citizens to take possession of federalized countries, they must create Constitutional village towns that are rooted in law to the principles of Christianity and the Ten Commandments.

Book excerpt: "An inspiring and informative page-turner." –Walter Isaacson Longlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award The authoritative account of the race to produce the vaccines that are saving us all, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Man Who Solved the Market Few were ready when a mysterious respiratory illness emerged in Wuhan, China in January 2020. Politicians, government officials, business leaders, and public-health professionals were unprepared for the most devastating pandemic in a century. Many of the world’s biggest drug and vaccine makers were slow to react or couldn’t muster an effective response. It was up to a small group of unlikely and untested scientists and executives to save civilization. A French businessman dismissed by many as a fabulist. A Turkish immigrant with little virus experience. A quirky Midwesterner obsessed with insect cells. A Boston scientist employing questionable techniques. A British scientist despised by his peers. Far from the limelight, each had spent years developing innovative vaccine approaches. Their work was met with skepticism and scorn. By 2020, these individuals had little proof of progress. Yet they and their colleagues wanted to be the ones to stop the virus holding the world hostage. They scrambled to turn their life’s work into life-saving vaccines in a matter of months, each gunning to make the big breakthrough—and to beat each other for the glory that a vaccine guaranteed. A #1 New York Times bestselling author and award-winning Wall Street Journal investigative journalist lauded for his “bravura storytelling” (Gary Shteyngart) and “first-rate” reporting (The New York Times), Zuckerman takes us inside the top-secret laboratories, corporate clashes, and high-stakes government negotiations that led to effective shots. Deeply reported and endlessly gripping, this is a dazzling, blow-by-blow chronicle of the most consequential scientific breakthrough of our time. It’s a story of courage, genius, and heroism. It’s also a tale of heated rivalries, unbridled ambitions, crippling insecurities, and unexpected drama. A Shot to Save the World is the story of how science saved the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the better part of the last half century, the United States has been the World's Police, claiming to defend ideologies, allies, and our national security through brute force. But is military action always the most appropriate response? Drawing on his vast experience, from combat in Vietnam to peacekeeping in Somalia, to war games in Washington, DC and negotiations with former rebels in the Philippines, retired four-star General Tony Zinni argues that we have a lot of work to do to make the process of going to war—or not—more clear-eyed and ultimately successful. He examines the relationship between the executive and the military (including the difference between passive and engaged presidents); the failures of the Joint Chief of Staff; the challenges of working with the UN, coalition forces, and NATO; the difference between young, on the ground officers and less savvy senior leaders; the role of special forces and drone warfare; and the difficult choices that need to be made to create tomorrow's military. Among his provocative points: * Virtually every recent American military operation follows a disconnected series of actions that lead to outcomes we never foresaw or intended. * We need to assign accountability for the political decisions that can make or break a mission. * Words and ideas are as important to victory in today's conflicts as bullets. * The cyber "war" is ongoing. Either you must build better tech than the other guy, or you must steal it. * Our foreign aid budget is pitiful, our State Department, USAID, and the other government agencies that we critically need to be on a par with our military are underfunded, undermanned, and poorly structured for their current objectives.From the Oval Office to the battlefield, Before the First Shots Are Fired is a hard-hitting analysis of the history of America's use of military action and a spirited call for change.

Book excerpt: "Outstanding... Grips you from the start to the end... A fantastic book... Move over Jack Reacher." Goodreads Reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When girls go missing here, no one says a word... Twenty-four-year-old Lila has disappeared without trace. It's the kind of case that ex-military loner Grant Fletcher would normally be happy to take on--he will always seek justice if someone has the money to pay him. But this one he's doing for free. This one's personal. Because Fletcher owes his life to Lila's father. And Fletcher knows that returning Lila safe and sound is the only thing that matters to his wheelchair-bound friend. She last called her father from a small town in rural Georgia. Arriving there, Fletcher's feet barely touch the ground before he finds trouble. He also discovers that his friend's daughter wasn't the first girl to go missing there. Not the first by far. Then the last person to have seen Lila before she disappeared is murdered. As a outsider, Fletcher becomes the local deputy's only suspect, leaving him no choice but to go on the run. Because Fletcher knows someone's abducting girls in this town. And he also knows he's the only person who can find them... Fans of high-octane action and unforgettable heroes like Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne and David Baldacci's Amos Decker will love First Shot.
