The Unelected: How an Unaccountable Elite Is Governing America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 538min
America is increasingly polarized around elections, but as James R. Copland explains, the unelected control much of the government apparatus that affects our lives. Congress has largely abdicated its authority. “Independent” administrative agencies churn out thousands of new regulations a year. Courts have enabled these agencies to expand their powers beyond those authorized by law - and limited executive efforts to rein in the bureaucratic behemoth. No ordinary citizen today can know what is legal and what is not. Some 300,000 federal crimes exist, 98 percent of which were created by administrative action rather than Congressional lawmaking.The proliferation of rules and the severity of sanctions give enormous discretion to unelected enforcement agents - upending the rule of law. Private attorneys regulate vast swathes of conduct through lawsuits, based upon legal theories never voted upon by the people’s elected representatives. A combination of historical accident, decisions by judges and law professors, and self-interested advocacy by the plaintiffs’ bar have left the United States with the world’s most expensive litigation system.Finally, state and local officials have increasingly pursued agendas to dictate the terms of national commerce. In reaching beyond their borders, these “new antifederalists” have been subjecting the citizens of Wyoming and Mississippi to the whims of the electorates of New York and San Francisco - inverting the constitutional design. In this timely new book, Manhattan Institute legal scholar Copland discusses how unelected actors have assumed control of the American republic - and where we need to go to chart a corrective course. ungekürzt.

The Sweet Goodbye (eBook, ePUB)
In this thrilling new series from Edgar®-nominated author Ron Corbett, the most dangerous predator in the Maine wilderness walks on two feet-and it is Danny Barrett's job to bring him down. Something is not right in the North Maine Woods. A small family-run lumber company should not have more than two hundred million unaccountable dollars on their books. Money like that comes from moving something other than wood across the border. The first agent the FBI sent undercover was their best man-sure to get the answers that were needed. He was dead within a month. Now, Danny Barrett is taking his place. Before he was a cop, Danny grew up in the woods of Northern Michigan. He is the only chance the feds have of getting answers, but how many more will have to die first?- Shop: buecher

Undemocratic: How Unelected, Unaccountable Bureaucrats Are Stealing Your Liberty and Freedom , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
Jay Sekulow - one of America's most influential attorneys - explores the current political landscape in which bureaucracy has taken over our government and provides a practical road map to help take back our personal liberties. Jay Sekulow is on a mission to defend Americans' freedom. The fact is that freedom is under attack like never before. The threat comes from the fourth branch of government - the biggest branch - and the only branch not in the Constitution: the federal bureaucracy. The bureaucracy imposes thousands of new laws every year without a single vote from Congress. The bureaucracy violates the rights of Americans without accountability - persecuting adoptive parents, denying veterans quality health care, discriminating against conservatives and Christians for partisan purposes, and damaging our economy with job-killing rules. Americans are bullied by the very institutions established to protect their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Our nation's bureaucrats are on an undemocratic power trip. But Jay has a plan to fight back. We can resist illegal abuse, we can reform a broken system, and we can restore American democracy. This audiobook won't just tell you how to win; it will show you real victories achieved by Jay and the American Center for Law and Justice. Unless we can roll back the fourth branch of government - the most dangerous branch - our elections will no longer matter. Undemocratic is a wake-up call, a call made at just the right time - before it's too late to save the democracy we love. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jay Sekulow.
