Gripping true tale of the theft from us all
Reviewed: 03-31-25
Well read by a voice for radio! The tale is 1) true and 2) you have been programmed to accept it as no big deal. But the reality is you’re a part slave your entire life to the predator class that continually steals through inflation…and you might even be proud that you have the intellect to see why such theft is necessary or good for the economy. Heaven help you. For the rest of us, bitcoin is your way to get out of the rat race…not that the life raft provides a comfy ride, but it beats swimming and sinking!

Boyapati presents the theory of money, the anatomy of Bitcoin, the reasons it is superior to the gold and fiat standards that came before it, and the promise that it offers to human civilization. He describes path dependence and the trajectory of a newly monetizing asset in terms the layman can understand, and he addresses the concerns that most commonly arise as newcomers struggle to comprehend the essence and significance of this first digital monetary network.

Story
1945. In the waning months of World War II, Japan hid vast quantities of gold and other stolen valuables in boobytrapped underground caches all across the Philippines. By 1947 some of that loot was recovered, not by treasure hunters, but by the United States government, which told no one about the find. Instead, those assets were stamped classified, shipped to Europe, and secretly assimilated into something called the Black Eagle Trust.

Story
Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based upon a real weapon - the Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) - which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States.

EMP attack is probably the only way any other nation on earth could stop the American military…indirectly by causing chaos at home. This book is about what that would look like.

Story
Bringing with him the practical experience that comes from having owned a high-end gun store—catering largely to law enforcement—and as a competitive shooter and self-defense trainer, Correia blasts apart the emotion-laden, logic-free rhetoric of the gun-control fanatics who turn every "mass shooting" into a crazed call for violating your rights, abusing the Constitution—and doing absolutely nothing to really fight crime.

Evil exists. Fortunately, most never experience it. This allows politicians to exploit people’s fear of tools to garner easy votes. But it’s precisely these tools, broadly wielded, that offer the best protection against evil.
This was obvious to our forefathers. Yet we forget so quickly.

Story
Democrats, the news media, and many leading Republicans immediately blamed the roughly four-hour disturbance on President Trump. The president “incited an insurrection”, the American pubic was told. But one year later, the original narrative of what happened that day has crumbled while hundreds of Americans have been swept up in an unprecedented investigation led by Joe Biden’s Justice Department to punish them for their involvement in the January 6 protest. The public has been misled - and flat-out lied to - about that day. This book exposes them all.

On a small two-lane bridge in a rural county that loathes the federal government, the US Army uses lethal force to end a standoff with hard-right anti-government patriots. Inside an ordinary diner, a disaffected young man with a handgun takes aim at the American president stepping in for an impromptu photo-op, and a bullet splits the hyper-partisan country into violently opposed mourners and revelers.

Clearly biased and mixes valid self defense with invalid murder…but the book does offer a peak into the future as it discusses a very plausible assassination plan.
If you can filter out the lefty propaganda, there are important topics discussed that should concern everyone.
