The Energy Wake-Up Call for AmericansThe Russian invasion of Ukraine is a wake-up call to America: Climate change activists are leading our country down the wrong energy path.The obsessive, all-in stance in favor of renewables has rendered Europe's economy and national security vulnerable to Russian President Vladimir Putin, one of the world's most vicious leaders.

Ultimately, it proposes a 5-point U.S. energy framework for the future.Robert Bryce - writer, film producer, and host of the Power Hungry podcast - calls it "a welcome antidote to the glib statements by math-challenged politicians and academics about the ease with which we should forsake hydrocarbons and turn our economy over to weather-dependent renewables."Get an inside look at:1.

For over 240 years, for the most part, the American people have enjoyed a certain amount of civility and prosperity in a free society. There is an operation underway to deliberately throw the United States and the nations of the world off the rails spiritually to cause the chaos the world is experiencing today. Why? To usher in a new age of globalism, complete control over everyone and everything, by just a few at the top. This is just the physical manifestation of an underlying spiritual war.This fight carries to a whole other level. In the physical world it plays out as the globalists vs. the non-globalists, the governments vs. the people, one race or group against another race or group-but the ultimate fight is really in the spiritual realm. It boils down to good versus evil.This book was not written to convince you or to change your mind. It was written to unveil the spiritual variable of the equation and show you how it connects to the physical chaos we are living through daily, and to encourage you to simply sift through the media garbage you are fed every day.

For many, the election of Donald Trump in 2016 was a dream come true. Millions saw him as a redeemer destined to make America great again.

Acts of Supremacy traces the ugly, and harrowing details of my Court-martial in the Spring of 1990, after I had annoyed an admiral who then orchestrated a full-on, "50 to 1" campaign against me. Further, it describes how our system of military justice initially came about, the various years of appeal that I pursued to attempt to secure an exoneration from these charges, the crime of forgery that took place during the course of the Court-martial itself (an act which today is still unprosecuted), and finally, what concrete steps of reform might be put in place so that a greater, transparent system of military justice might be achieved for all future sailors and soldiers, so that they do not have to endure what I did.

Thinking About Thinking is a work of political sociology. The premise of the book is that one can create a general sociological theory of ideology and apply that general theory to the situation of the United States in the Twenty-First Century in order to explain the remarkable and threatening political ideological divide between supporters and opponents of former president Donald J. Trump. Thinking About Thinking delivers the one thing that has been missing in our national conversation: a theory-based and evidenced explanation of the contemporary American political divide, specifically the divide between the supporters and opponents of Donald J. Trump. It is the single indispensable source for understanding this divide and its social, economic and technological bases.

While we use the language of mental health to describe our personalities and our sadness, my Arab grandma still uses the language of the soul. I wrote this book to mourn my generation's loss of that concept. I wrote this book to reclaim my soul.

Why would an innocent person ever confess to a crime they did not commit? Academia has conducted a great deal of research into this question and have routinely concluded that the actions of law enforcement officers and their interrogative tactics are largely responsible for these false confessions. Through the claims of academic researchers, expert witnesses, wrongful conviction advocates, defense attorneys, and even Hollywood producers, an ethos has been created which suggests that American law enforcement officers routinely overbear the will of criminal subjects and will stop at nothing in order to obtain a confession; even a false confession. This book finally brings balance to these flawed assertions by providing insights from real-world law enforcement officers who specialize in the field of criminal interrogation. This book also highlights the anti-law enforcement bias present within the academic community; the flawed and unrealistic research designs utilized to study the false confession phenomenon; and the rise of the lucrative false confession expert witness industry. In what can only be described as 'apoplectic,' academics have already equated the positions in this book to "arguing against the existence of climate change" and have pleaded that it "should never see the light of publication." At last, a book has been written that reconsiders the false confession phenomenon from a law enforcement perspective and ultimately paints a drastically different picture of what takes place inside of America's interrogation rooms. This book promises to offer a different take on what many so-called experts would have you believe about criminal interrogation; and it's one they don't want you to hear.

One patriot leads a daring raid behind enemy lines and one family extracts vengeance for a lost member of their clan.

Torn from today's headlines, Blaine Pardoe's fourth installment in the Blue Dawn series is a cautionary tale of what could happen if the radical progressives got everything they ever wanted.

The United States as twice as many mass killings than any other country in the world. In 2018, there were 18 mass killings in one year.Many critics say it is the accessibility of guns in the United States that is the cause of the mass killings. But guns have always been available in the US, particularly since 1781, when the second amendment was passed granting citizens the right to own guns. But mass killing began to multiply at the end of the 20th Century and continued to do so into the 21st Century.People kill not because they have guns, but because they have an urge to kill. The urge to kill is brought on either by an emotional disturbance or a cultural disturbance or both. The urge to kill many people is brought on by an even greater disturbance.Mass killers are the products of dysfunctional families and dysfunctional cultures. The traumas of childhood and the frustrations of living in a dysfunctional culture lead to the eruptions of mass killings.This book probes the minds of mass killers and the meaning of their killings. It begins with an introduction to the psychology of mass killings, then offers six case histories of some of the most notorious mass killers in recent American history. It ends with a chapter on how to prevent mass killings.
