An inside look of what Trump did to try to retain the presidency despite clearly losing the election. He broke many laws and has not yet been held accountable for his misdeeds. There is a clear threat of Trump coming back into office and the utter destruction to the way we run the country as we have been since its founding. Despite resistance from others in her party, Cheney continues to get the word out and works to see that Trump does not get elected. The inside view of the workings of the House committee around the January 6 insurrection is quite eye-opening. Note that Cheney has a blind spot with respect to her father Dick Cheney, who served as VP for the terrible George W. Bush administration, full of its own backward steps. Yet contrasted to what Trump did in his term, the Bush looks better in comparison.

Oof this was hard to read after the election knowing what we are getting ourselves into with another trump presidency. It’s actually a terrifying read because of that but…it was well written, full of insider information and gave me a better understanding of what we might have to deal with again

I applaud Cheney for her bravery. I listened on Audible, and although Cheney's voice does get a little monotonous at times, it's worth the listen because real recordings of the testimony are played. Cheney went against the expectations of her own political party and investigated Trump's incitement of the insurrection on January 6th. For 187 minutes he did absolutely nothing to stop the worst attack on the Capitol since the War of 1812. The polarization of our political landscape is sad, but Cheney demonstrates what integrity can and should look like in our government. Anyone who plans to vote for Trump in 2024 should read this book. I knew things were bad, but I was absolutely shocked at the details.
