Knudsen doesn’t talk down to you or use fancy jargon. He shows you step-by-step how our leaders stopped working for us and started working for themselves. It is an honest political leadership book that makes you realize staying neutral isn’t an option anymore.

Our non-fiction book club picked this up on a whim, and it ended up sparking our longest meeting of the year! What makes this government corruption book so impactful is how personal it feels.

He breaks down how party loyalty is quietly dismantling the checks and balances our country was built on. If you’re looking for a sharp, balanced modern American politics book that actually makes you think instead of telling you how to feel, give this a read.
