Now we know where Donald gets his evil weirdness from thanks to Fred Trump. What a wicked man he was. So good to know that you and your daughter have survived and I will continue to listen to your excellent commentaries whenever I see them. Always knew from the beginning of listening to the news that Donald was narcissistic but I’ll never understand why so many people are blind to him. Good job Mary!

Had to stop at chapter 6 when I realised I kept fast forwarding and even listening while gardening wasn’t doing the trick to get to the exciting parts? Good for some but I will return this book.

Just the scope of the information was so mind boggling having never heard about the Osage’s horrendous problem. I personally feel enraged being part native. Thank you for teaching us all.

Hobo Knowledge
Reviewed: 02-25-24
Hearing information on hobos as my father once rode the rails in his youth so learned much information about what would have been his life in Western Canada. So interesting. He was actually a Boiler Maker for ships and apprenticed 7 years in Liverpool. Took time off by riding the rails out West before starting a new life.

Story
Inspired by her research for the hit podcast Ultra, Rachel Maddow charts the rise of a wild American strain of authoritarianism that has been alive on the far-right edge of our politics for the better part of a century. Before and even after our troops had begun fighting abroad in World War II, a clandestine network flooded the country with disinformation aimed at sapping the strength of the U.S. war effort and persuading Americans that our natural alliance was with the Axis, not against it.

With people like Rachel Maddow we can only glimpse into the world of what was going on under the USA noses although it seems with the USA knowledge as well which is so very scary and knowing it still continues on to this day. My appreciation for her hard work in gathering this information for our eyes.
