Julie Kelly is a singularly courageous journalist and indefatigable defender of truth. This is an eye-opening and breathtaking book that should be read by anyone who cares about justice, due process, and America's future.

The events of January 6, 2021, are being exploited by the Democratic Party and the national news media to criminalize political protest and free speech in America.
Americans were shocked and outraged to see chaos unfold at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The melee shut down plans by some Republican lawmakers to object to Congress's official certification of the 2020 presidential election results.
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. It prompted a second impeachment trial of Donald Trump after he left office.
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 6th protest. The public has been misled-and flat-out lied to-about a number of aspects related to that day. This book exposes them all.
The real question is not why thousands of women went to Washington on January 6. The real question is why the rest of us did not.
Unlike the women who descended on Washington in 2017 to protest the inauguration of President Trump, the women of January 6 did not come as women. They came as Americans, as patriots, as defenders of the republic. They did not wear pink hats. They wore MAGA hats. Their issues were indistinguishable from those of the men in their lives-the rule of law, free and fair elections, and the preservation of constitutional rights. They brought no laundry list of special needs like, say, reproductive rights, because they understood that no one was challenging their right to reproduce. In fact, many had reproduced abundantly.
There was not a single celebrity in their midst-no Ashley Judds, no Gloria Steinems, no Madonnas threatening to blow up the White House. These were Hillary's deplorables in the flesh, a whole heaping basket of them, irredeemable to the last woman. On January 6, the very presence of these intrepid women at the Capitol so offended the natural order of things that many would be gassed and beaten. Two would never return home.
If resistance to government oppression has a face, it is that of Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt, a determined patriot and an enduring martyr. This is her story, and that of the other gallant women of January 6.
The compelling inside story of how America abandoned Afghanistan.
When America retreated from Kabul amid chaos in 2021, Lieutenant General Sami Sadat, the last commander of the army of the Afghan republic, was still fighting to the end. In this firsthand account, he reveals how his troops were starved of ammunition for two years before the final pullout, while America was glad-handing the Taliban. Although Sadat spent his early career fighting alongside the CIA to track down al-Qaeda in the mountains of the Hindu Kush, it was in conventional combat-leading from the front-that he made his name. In The Last Commander, he contends that Afghanistan could have won the war if support had continued. President Biden may have ended America's longest war, but the story does not end there. Now Sadat's birth country is plunged into barbarism, where women are beaten for showing their face and his former comrades are hunted down and killed. But Sadat is planning to fight back. It will not be easy, but this riveting personal account of combat shows that if anyone can do it, he can.
Sadat's story was told in the Emmy Award-winning documentary Retrograde. Now he tells it for himself.
In this gripping whistleblower account of FBI corruption and malfeasance, Greg Dillon-veteran state investigator and former FBI agent-finds himself caught up in an FBI misconduct scandal resulting in coverups, retaliation, a federal trial, and a landmark court ruling.
When Greg Dillon is assigned to a federal fugitive task force in Connecticut, he inadvertently uncovers a pattern of misconduct and falsified affidavits. After reporting his concerns to the politically connected but incompetent chief state's attorney, the whistleblower finds himself a target of reprisal. Investigated, transferred, demoted, and threatened, Dillon hires an attorney, and-with the assistance of legendary whistleblower Frank Serpico-takes on both the state of Connecticut and the Department of Justice in federal court, resulting in an explosive verdict and a significant court ruling.
