Publisher's summary

A suspended special agent explains his decision to turn whistleblower and expose FBI politicization and abuse against conservative America.

Stephen Friend had his dream job as an FBI special agent. After nearly a decade of combating violent crime, human trafficking, and child predators, he was reassigned to the FBI’s unprecedented investigation of the political unrest at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Friend soon uncovered efforts by the FBI and Department of Justice to manipulate statistics and exaggerate the nationwide threat of domestic terrorism. Friend spotlighted how the politicized FBI was cooking the books to support an ongoing narrative from the Joe Biden administration to label Donald Trump voters as violent extremists. Friend witnessed overzealous practices to harass conservative Americans, and realized the FBI was turning its investigative processes into a punishment. When the married father of two made his bombshell allegations in a whistleblower disclosure, leaders within the FBI exposed themselves as partisan, ambitious players who insisted that January 6th protestors killed police officers and attempted to seize American democracy.

Hell-bent on suppressing Friend from exposing the truth, FBI officials seized his gun and badge and suspended him from working as a special agent. In this memoir, Friend reflects on the lessons and life experiences that led him to ultimately risk his career to uphold his FBI special agent oath to protect and defend the United States Constitution against all enemies—both foreign and domestic.

A true Patriot and American hero

Steve is an excellent example to follow, someone willing to lose it all to stand up for what it's right, Even if that means standing up to the Goliath that is the out of control FBI. We need more people like him in society. This book will open the eyes of many to what is going on in the swamp of Washington DC, that being the weaponization of our government against We the People, and the complete disregard for Constitutional rights.

Very informative

Steve’s story was very informative. Hope someone in congress is listening and willing to act on his suggestions to improve the FBI. But not holding my breath.

Helpful Perspective

It's encouraging to know that someone of integrity in law enforcement still stands up for our country. So sad to know the cost for him.

Excellent and Informative Book!

Mr. Friend is a true American Patriot that is based on principle. Well written accounts that illustrate the politicization of the executive leadership of the FBI. Mr. Friend's recommendations to restore the FBI's executive leadership to the principle of fidelity (to truth) seem quite reasonable. Mr. Friend embodies Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity. Thank you Mr. Friend. Well done. God bless you.

Needed insight into FBI corruption

Always enjoy hearing an author's backstory. Thankful for Steve's detailed account of his conflict with FBI during the J6 swat raids & his whistleblowing.

Very compelling!

Listened to this book in one sitting. It was very captivating to hear SF’s journey to this point. How great it is to see that there are still good guys willing to stand in the gap of protecting the American person. Someone who truly took his oath seriously, no matter the cost. Thank you for sharing, SF!!!

Exposes the stage 4 political cancer destroying the FBI.

This presents a fair argument for strong oversight of the FBI and dismissal of the corrupt political creatures running it.
