When Ingram hears about a deadly automobile accident on his police scanner, he recognizes the vehicle described as belonging to his good friend and old army buddy, a white jazz trumpeter. The LAPD declares the car crash an accident, but when Ingram develops his photos, he sees signs of foul play. Ingram feels compelled to play detective, even if it means putting his own life on the line. Armed with his wits, his camera, and occasionally his Colt .45, "One-Shot" Harry plunges headfirst into the seamy underbelly of LA society, tangling with racists, leftists, gangsters, zealots, and lovers, all in the hope of finding something resembling justice for a friend.

    Trump's World: Geo Deus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 595min
    From the preface by Matteo Salvini:A phrase has come into the Zeitgeist - calling people the “Trump of their field”. Elon Musk is the "Trump of business". I am called the “Trump of Italy”. It is a phenomenon that recalls the great Caesars - The name of Gaius Julius Caesar became a title, honorific to the extreme of deification. Many leaders still do not know how to react to President Trump; to his decision to control immigration, to 3+ percent economic growth, and, especially, to the justified desire to implement a pro-US policy.Europe, like the rest of the world, needs Trump in order to relearn how to do politics, instead of winding endless tales from which no one understands anything, and no one takes any firm decisions.The Trump of America must lead the world in uniting Western civilization against an onslaught of weak, feeble centrists and leftists at home and abroad. Europe needs Trump in order to wake up from its zealous overconfidence in its capacity to assimilate millions of non-Europeans into its cultures.The world also needs Trump and America to learn the value of the nation state and policies based on the community called the "nation".Every nation in the world needs a president or prime minister like Donald Trump - pushing their nation toward its greater destiny.Every nation needs presidents that puts their nation first and fights for the interests of those who voted for them!Trump's World shows how Trump has bent the arc of modern history in the US and how other leaders will do the same across the world as popular sovereignists win the day. ungekürzt.

    Catch the Jew! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 756min
    Catch the Jew! recounts the adventures of gonzo journalist Tuvia Tenenbom, who wanders around Israel and the Palestinian Authority for seven months in search of the untold truths in today's Holy Land. With holy chutzpah, Tenenbom boldly goes where no Jew has gone before, at times risking his life as he assumes the identities of Tobi the German and even Abu Ali in order to probe into the many stories in this strange land and poke holes in all of them. From the self-hating leftists in Tel Aviv to the self-promoting PLO execs in Ramallah, from the black-clad Haredim of Bet Shemesh to the glowing foreign human-rights activists in Beit Hanina, from Jewish settlers and the Christians who come from abroad to toil with them to ardent Jerusalem monks and Bedouins in surprisingly glorious shacks, Tenenbom takes on the people of the land, getting to know them and disarming them as he breaks bread and mingles with anyone and everyone. Does Palestinian wife number one hate the Jews more than she hates wife number two? Who finances cash-rich NGOs pursuing a Judenrein Israel? Who sets Palestinian olive groves on fire and why? What is the emotional gravity that pulls idealistic human-rights activists from other countries to Israel and only to Israel? Who are the flaming feminists who sacrifice their lives for the rights of polygamists? Whose land is this, anyway? By turns poignant, enraging, and laugh-out-loud funny, this unique travelogue lays bare the intensity of this turbulent land in an unprecedented, eye-opening education, person by person, city by city, and meal by meal. You will never look at Israel the same way again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shlomo Zacks. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/033230/bk_acx0_033230_sample.mp3.

    The Eyes of Willie McGee: A Tragedy of Race, Sex, and Secrets in the Jim Crow South , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 840min
    A gripping saga of race and retribution in the Deep South and a story whose haunting details echo the themes of To Kill a Mockingbird. In 1945, Willie McGee, a young African-American man from Laurel, Mississippi, was sentenced to death for allegedly raping Willette Hawkins, a white housewife. At first, McGee's case was barely noticed, covered only in hostile Mississippi newspapers and far-left publications such as the Daily Worker. Then Bella Abzug, a young New York labor lawyer, was hired by the Civil Rights Congress—an aggressive civil-rights organization with ties to the Communist Party of the United States—to oversee McGee's defense. Together with William Patterson, the son of a slave and a devout believer in the need for revolutionary change, Abzug and a group of white Mississippi lawyers risked their lives to plead McGee's case. After years of court battles, McGee's supporters flooded President Harry S. Truman and the U.S. Supreme Court with clemency pleas, and famous Americans spoke out on McGee's behalf. By the time the case ended in 1951 with McGee's public execution in Mississippi's infamous traveling electric chair, "Free Willie McGee" had become a rallying cry among civil-rights activists, progressives, leftists, and Communist Party members. Their movement had succeeded in convincing millions of people worldwide that McGee had been framed and that the real story involved a consensual love affair between him and Mrs. Hawkins—one that she had instigated and controlled. As Heard discovered, this controversial theory is a doorway to a tangle of secrets that spawned a legacy of confusion, misinformation, and pain that still resonates today. ungekürzt.

    Rules for Deplorables: A Primer for Fighting Radical Socialism , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 450min
    This audiobook was written to educate Americans about the radical form of socialism spreading across our country. Schools are teaching a romanticized view of socialism that leaves our younger generation clueless as to what perils it may bring. It is up to adults to understand what socialism is so we can teach our children. The author commissioned 11-year-old Braylon Nance, who she's known since birth, to draw the cover art to impart the benefits of capitalism through hard work.The choice between capitalism and socialism is the issue causing great division in America today. Radicals are becoming increasingly vocal about their desire to transform our country to socialism, and they’re on the brink of achieving that goal.Most people don’t understand the game the left plays. President Donald J. Trump does, and plays it well. That’s why leftists hate him so much. We can’t prevent socialism in our country unless we, too, understand the rules of their game.Now, we can. Thirteen tactics are outlined in the 1972 blockbuster book, Rules for Radicals, by the father of community organizing, Saul Alinsky. They’ve been used by the left, effectively, for decades. His book is a literal blueprint on how to overwhelm our systems so the public will think the only solution is bigger government. The left’s fastest route to socialism, by any means necessary, discards ethics and uses political correctness to create the chaos needed to advance their agenda. They are stealing elections, eroding our Constitution, and weakening the rule of law. If they succeed, we risk losing our sovereignty and freedoms for generations.Rules for Deplorables: A Primer for Fighting Radical Socialism got its name when Hillary Clinton called Trump supporters a "basket of deplorables" during the 2016 presidential campaign. The audiobook was written by Cathi Chamberlain for Americans who want to understand the dangers our country is facing and to learn what they can d ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Winning the Future: A 21st Century Contract with America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
    The dangers are manifold: Terrorism. Judges who think they're God (and who are anti-God). Rising economic challenges from China and India. Immigrants and young Americans who know little about American history and values. Can America survive? Yes, says Newt Gingrich, and we as Americans can do more: We can create a safer, more prosperous, and healthier America for our children and grandchildren. How? By enacting a 21st Century Contract with America. When he was Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich issued his first Contract with America. What was the result? Sweeping reform that shocked Washington and spurred an economic recovery for the nation, including: the first major tax cut in 16 years; real, lasting welfare reform; and four years of balanced budgets. But the challenges now are even starker, and Newt is back with a plan for American greatness that includes: How to win the War on Terror; how Ronald Reagan's winning strategy in the Cold War can be adapted and modified to win this new global struggle. How to re-establish God in American public life; without God, America ceases to be American, which is why leftists are so keen on banishing our Creator. How to reform Social Security, and improve your retirement earnings, before Social Security bankrupts the nation and the next generation of taxpayers. How to restore patriotism to American schools and insist on patriotic learning for new immigrants. How to make American health care the global standard for excellence and accessibility while reducing health care costs. And much more. The challenges of the 21st Century are great, says Newt Gingrich, but so are the opportunities. The decisions we make over the next four years will determine our future. And no book can be more important for making the right choices than Newt Gingrich's Winning the Future: A 21st Century Contract with America. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alan Sklar.

    The July/August 2014 Issue of Foreign Affairs: What Really Happened, Hörbuch, Digital, 466min
    July/August 2014 Volume 93, Number 4 "What Really Happened in Iran", by Ray Takeyh: Conventional wisdom about the 1953 coup in Iran rests on the myth that the CIA toppled the country's democratically elected prime minister. In reality, the coup was primarily a domestic Iranian affair, and the CIA's impact was ultimately insignificant. "What Really Happened in Congo", by Stephen R. Weissman: Newly available evidence shows that the CIA engaged in pervasive political meddling and paramilitary action in Congo during the 1960s - and that the local CIA station chief directly influenced the events that led to the death of Patrice Lumumba, the country's first democratically elected prime minister. "What Really Happened in Chile", by Jack Devine: The 1973 coup in Chile is often included in indictments of U.S. covert action during the Cold War, during which the United States, at the direction of a number of presidents, sometimes took actions of questionable wisdom to prevent or reverse the rise of leftists who Washington feared might lead their countries into the Soviet orbit. In truth, the CIA did not plot with the Chilean military to overthrow Allende. "What Really Happened in Bangladesh", by Harold H. Saunders: In 1971, the Pakistani government orchestrated a brutal military crackdown against the Bengali population in East Pakistan - while the United States stuck by its ally Pakistan. Gary Bass' new book spotlights the "significant complicity" of U.S. President Richard Nixon and his national security adviser, Henry Kissinger, in this "forgotten genocide". Essays: "New World Order": Erik Brynjolfsson, Andrew McAfee, and Michael Spence. Machines are substituting for more types of human labor than ever before. This means that the real winners of the future will be neither the providers of cheap labor nor the owners of ordinary capital, but rather those who can innovate and create new products, services, and business models.

    LOCKDOWN (eBook, ePUB)
    "A crucial warning for Americans about the left's never-ending lust to steal individual liberties - and the power of God to stop it." - Everett Piper, Bestselling Author of Grow Up! "Don't put off reading this book and regret that you failed to realize the threat we face." - Gov. Mike Huckabee LOCKDOWN is a terrifying story of not only the chaotic freefall of American freedoms during the opening stages of the COVID pandemic, but the dangerous growth of government power that continues today. LOCKDOWN is a warning that the extraordinary powers invoked by left-wing Democrats and others, justified by claims of public health and safety, have begun the unravelling of America's constitutional order and our most cherished freedoms. Using COVID-19 as a cover, Democrat leaders and their bureaucratic health advisers seized powers the Constitution never gave them, and ordered citizens to stay off streets and out of public parks, banned them from their workplaces, closed down their schools, and made church attendance a crimes - even as these same leaders and their left-leaning cronies blithely, arrogantly, and outrageously allowed mass protests, kept open abortion clinics and did as they pleased. Relying on her trademark aggressive reporting style, Cheryl K. Chumley explains how the radical left is using pandemic policies as a template for increasing controls over the lives of citizens as they build a one-party, socialist state in America. A sequel to her bestselling Socialists Don't Sleep, in LOCKDOWN, Chumley exposes how hypocritical, elitist, and radical leftists are still using the coronavirus to score political points and steal individual rights - as the original pandemic served as dress rehearsal in the march toward the new fascism.
