Histoire
From June 2019 until his firing by President Trump after the November 2020 election, Secretary Mark T. Esper led the Department of Defense through an unprecedented time in history - a period marked by growing threats and conflict abroad, a global pandemic unseen in a century, the greatest domestic unrest in two generations, and a White House seemingly bent on breaking accepted norms and conventions for political advantage. A Sacred Oath is Esper's unvarnished and candid memoir of those extraordinary and dangerous times, and includes events and moments never before told.

As the nation recovers from the Trump presidency, many questions remain: Why was the COVID-19 pandemic so grossly mishandled? How did we get so politically polarized? What caused White nationalist groups to come out of the shadows, and are they here to stay? The answers lie the twisted story of the relationship between Donald Trump and Fox News. Through firsthand accounts from over 250 current and former Fox insiders, CNN anchor and chief media correspondent Brian Stelter unlocks the inner workings of Rupert Murdoch’s multibillion-dollar media empire.

How did America end up with a leader who acts so crudely and despotically, and counter to our democratic principles? Why do his followers stick with him, even when he acts against their interests? John Dean, a man with a history of standing up to autocratic presidents, joins with Bob Altemeyer, a psychology professor with a unique area of expertise: authoritarianism. Together, using psychological diagnostic tools, as well as exclusive research and analysis from the Monmouth University Polling Institute, the authors provide us with an eye-opening understanding of the Trump phenomenon.

When he opened the FBI investigation into Russia’s election interference, Peter Strzok had already spent more than two decades defending the United States against foreign threats. His career in counterintelligence ended shortly thereafter, when the Trump administration used his private expression of political opinions to force him out of the Bureau in August 2018. But by that time, Strzok had seen more than enough to convince him that the commander in chief had fallen under the sway of America’s adversary in the Kremlin.

William Barr’s first tenure as attorney general under President George H.W. Bush was largely the result of chance, while his second tenure under President Donald Trump a deliberate and difficult choice. In this candid memoir, Barr takes listeners behind the scenes during seminal moments of the 1990s, from the LA riots to Pan Am 103 and Iran Contra. Thirty years later, Barr faced an unrelenting barrage of issues, such as Russiagate, the COVID outbreak, civil unrest, the impeachments, and the 2020 election fallout.

Extraordinary writing by a true scholar of the mind

Auteur(s): Mary L. Trump PhD
Description
From CNN chief legal analyst and best-selling author Jeffrey Toobin, a real-life legal thriller about the prosecutors and congressional investigators pursuing the truth about Donald Trump's complicity in several crimes - and why they failed.
Donald Trump's campaign chairman went to jail. So did his personal lawyer. His long-time political consigliere was convicted of serious federal crimes, and his national security advisor pled guilty to others. Several Russian spies were indicted in absentia. Career intelligence agents and military officers were alarmed enough by the president's actions that they alerted senior government officials and ignited the impeachment process.
Yet despite all this, a years-long inquiry led by special counsel Robert Mueller, and the third impeachment of a president in American history, Donald Trump survived to run for re-election. Why?
Jeffrey Toobin's highly entertaining definitive account of the Mueller investigation and the impeachment of the president takes listeners behind the scenes of the epic legal and political struggle to call Trump to account for his misdeeds. With his superb storytelling and analytic skills Toobin recounts all the mind-boggling twists and turns in the case - Trump's son met with a Russian operative promising Kremlin support! Trump paid a porn star $130,000 to hush up an affair! Rudy Giuliani and a pair of shady Ukrainian-American businessmen got the Justice Department to look at Russian-created conspiracy theories! Toobin shows how Trump's canny lawyers used Mueller's famous integrity against him, and how Trump's bullying and bluster cowed Republican legislators into ignoring the clear evidence of the impeachment hearings.
Based on dozens of interviews with prosecutors in Mueller's office, Trump's legal team, Congressional investigators, White House staffers, and several of the key players, including some who are now in prison, True Crimes and Misdemeanors is a revelatory narrative that makes sense of the seemingly endless chaos of the Trump years.
Filled with never-before-reported details of the high-stakes legal battles and political machinations, the book weaves a tale of a rogue president guilty of historic misconduct, and how he got away with it.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Authoritative... A smart recap of the past four years, punctuated by insider details about the investigations and Toobin’s judgments on the lawyering skills and ethics of various players. The author has no patience for James Comey’s sanctimony and 'faux humility.' ...Rosenstein is 'disoriented and out of his depth,' committing legal and political 'malpractice' by letting Trump use him to justify Comey’s firing. And Barr is “sycophantic,” a 'toady' who evolved from 'principled conservative to Trump apologist.'" (Washington Post)
"At some point in the future, it is entirely possible that the full details of Donald Trump's business affairs, personal imbroglios and political maneuverings will be laid bare to the public. Should that happen, it is easy to imagine much of the world wondering how the man got away with so much for so long. In that hour, readers may well turn to True Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Investigation of Donald Trump....This work is more than a journalist emptying his notebook of all his interviews and insights. It is more than a legal expert analyzing how the best work of talented and committed lawyers could be frustrated by governmental rules and rivalries within the executive and legislative powers in our federal system. Perhaps its highest function is as a condensation of the best evidence against the presidency and character of Donald Trump, a summation offered up much as a prosecutor would do in seeking to sway a jury."

Everything in a different light
This book takes you on a journey behind the scenes through the legal side of Trump’s campaign and then his presidency. The story is well told but I did find it hard to follow sometimes as a layperson. But I enjoyed the learning that took place as I listened to all that lawyers, our lawmakers, and our elected officials worked at to keep the true narrative during an unprecedented time of lies and misleading statements thrown at the American public from the top down. Well done Mr Toobin.

More than just a bit misleading.
In general, this is a retelling in frustratingly broad generalities of the main players in the Mueller and House of Representatives investigations of President Trump`s crimes during his campaign for the Presidency and later in his attempts to cover up his efforts to use Russian influence to bolster his chances of winning. Mr. Toobin then attempts to explain the Ukraine scandal and the impending Impeachment in the House and the Senate trial of President Trump.
One of my biggest gripes with the sections on the Mueller Report is that on several occasions Toobin proclaims unequivocally that Trump did not collude with Russia to affect the election. But as a person who read the Mueller Report, I cannot reach the same conclusion of there being no conspiracy. Mueller claimed in no uncertain terms that he was unable to prove a conspiracy because many of the witnesses (including Trump himself) lied to his investigators, withheld pertinent information, and destroyed evidence, that those efforts closed avenues of the investigation. The malfeasance of those investigated (aside from Matt Gates) prevented Mueller from being able to conclude that Trump or his campaign conspired with Russian agents.
To me, this does not mean that Trump was not guilty of conspiracy, but rather that Mueller was unable to prove beyond a reasonable doubt Trumps' guilt.
My biggest gripe with the Impeachment section had to do with a supposed tension between Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Nadler. On more than two occasions Mr. Toobin claims that Speaker Pelosi smacked down Nadler by giving the lead on the investigation to the Intelligence Committee of Rep Schiff, and then did so again when she appointed Schiff as the lead Prosecutor for the House. I had just finished reading Norman Isen`s book prior to picking this title and nowhere does Mr. Isen even allude to Speaker Pelosi somehow lacking confidence in Chairman Nadler. The respective committees each had a job to do, and a specific role to play.I cannot fathom why Mr. Toobin would want to play up a supposed slight to Chairman Nadler when that just did not happen. I will trust the Lead Counsel to the Judiciary Committee on this matter.
All in all, it was an ok read, but I am not sure I would give it the distinction of being the definitive source on the scandals and prosecutions of Trump or his minions and sycophants.

Best of many!
I have read all the books covering Trump and this period in history. This book is scholarly and thorough and exceptionally clear. There is a lot of new personal color that came from interviews with many of the main players and lots of inside information on the Mueller inquiry as well as the impeachment. For the majority of the book, I thought the account was straight reporting without bias. Toward the denouement, the author’s bias becomes more apparent. Since I totally share his bias, I thought the book was a terrific recounting of recent history, well researched, and highly readable.

Incredible!!!!
This book should be the high school and college textbook for the political history of this horrid era. The election is 60 days away - if Trump refuses to concede he should be impeached again to give the cowardly Republican senators one final chance to redeem themselves before the bar of history. Let his removal then be immediate.

There is no better legal writer than Jeffrey Toobin
As a lawyer of 30 years myself, there is no skill I admire more than that of the author who can take complex legal concepts, multiple timelines and diverse characters and weave them all into a rich, fair and honest tapestry of truth. Jeff Toobin is the very best at this challenging high wire act. This book takes all of the daily headlines we read and puts them in their proper current and historical context. Everyone who cares about America should read this book.

Four years of news retold with the missing details
Toobin has done a masterful job of collecting, amplifying, and analyzing the sordid history of Trump's corruption, mendacity, and self-dealing. He has filled in, through his own extensive research, the details that we did not hear as these events were taking place. The pace is slow enough to be thorough, yet fast enough to hold the attention. The delivery, like the substance of the book, was professional and very listenable.
Because we have lived through the story, parts of which seem to be only weeks in the past, I did not find it as riveting as political books that have brought whole new bodies of information, say the one by Trump's niece, or the best of Woodward's books. Nonetheless, Toobin has provided us with a competent and detailed reference to the unfortunate history of the Trump years.
