Not to Yield

Volume One

Beschreibung

This raw, provocative book of essays adapted from the blog ShiningSeaUSA pulls back the curtain on the Trump presidency, providing a panoramic view of his turbulent time in office, the legal implications of his actions, and the inactions of those surrounding him, enabling him, or standing by. The book includes memoir about life in New York City, legal analyses of major political developments since Donald Trump emerged, deep dives into what went wrong in the Mueller investigation, Trump's mishandling of the COVID pandemic, and the threat to American democracy from Trump, the Republican Party he has captured, and the "conservative" Supreme Court. Not to Yield exposes the corruption and incompetence that dominated Trump's presidency, his denial of his 2020 election loss, the January 6 attack on the Capitol and Trump's attempt to return to power, all observed through a legal lens that spotlights blatant disregard for the law of the land and our democratic system.
