Histoire
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.

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. 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?

Stuart Stevens spent decades electing Republicans at every level, from presidents to senators to local officials. He knows the GOP as intimately as anyone in America, and in this new audiobook, he offers a devastating portrait of a party that has lost its moral and political compass. This is not an audiobook about how Donald J. Trump hijacked the Republican Party and changed it into something else. Stevens shows how Trump is in fact the natural outcome of five decades of hypocrisy and self-delusion, dating all the way back to the civil rights legislation of the early 1960s.

Description
Instant New York Times best seller
This program is read by the author.
A powerful and revelatory memoir from former CIA director John Brennan, spanning his more than 30 years in government.
Friday, January 6, 2017: On that day, as always, John Brennan’s alarm clock was set to go off at 4:15 a.m. But nothing else about that day would be routine. That day marked his first and only security briefing with President-elect Donald Trump. And it was also the day John Brennan said his final farewell to Owen Brennan, his father, the man who had taught him the lessons of goodness, integrity, and honor that had shaped the course of an unparalleled career serving his country from within the intelligence community.
In this brutally honest memoir, Brennan, the son of an Irish immigrant who settled in New Jersey, describes the life that took him from being a young CIA recruit enamored with the mystique of spy work, secretly defiant enough to drive a motorcycle and sport a diamond earring, and invigorated by his travels in the Middle East, to being the most powerful individual in American intelligence. He details his experiences with very different presidents and what it’s been like to bear responsibility for some of the nation’s most crucial and polarizing national security decisions.
He pulls back the curtain on the inner workings of the Agency, describing the selfless, patriotic, and invisible work of the women and men involved in national security. He also examines the insularity, arrogance, and myopia that have, at times, undermined its reputation in the eyes of the American people and of members of other branches of government. Through topics ranging from George W. Bush’s intervention in Iraq to his thoughts on the CIA’s controversial use of enhanced interrogation techniques to his eye-opening account of the planning of the raid that resulted in Bin Ladin’s death to his realization that Russia had interfered with the 2016 election, Brennan brings the listener behind the scenes of some of the most crucial moments in recent US history. He also candidly discusses the times he has failed to live up to his own high standards and the very public fallouts that have resulted.
With its behind-the-scenes look at how major US national security policies and actions unfolded during his long and distinguished career - especially during his eight years in the Obama administration - John Brennan’s memoir is a work of history with strong implications for the future of America and our country’s relationships with other world powers.
Undaunted: My Fight Against America’s Enemies, at Home and Abroad offers a rare and insightful look at the often-obscured world of national security, the intelligence profession, and Washington’s chaotic political environment. But more than that, it is a portrait of a man striving for integrity; for himself, for the CIA, and for his country.

Story: This story promises to be marked by the precise language of Mr. Brennan. The story it self, stripped of voice and style, will probably be a most important reference for this period of history.

Proof of integrity.
During the past 4 years my confidence in the integrity of the people who work in governmental service has suffered. However this book has restored some of that confidence. I learned more about our behind the scenes work for the good of the world than I was aware of. John Brennan is brave enough to speak truth to power and human enough to admit to mistakes. We need more like him.

Becoming CIA Director
John Brennan is a man of honesty, decency, and integrity, and it shows like a beacon in contrast to the lying, corrupt, treasonous members of the current administration. We are fortunate that he served his country so honorably. I wanted to say that right off . Brennan has roots firmly in the middle class, who has worked his way up in the intelligence community. This book gives the listener an insiders view of the internal workings of that community. It was detailed without being tedious. He describes his time spent in the Middle East,and the fact that he is an Arabic speaker (who knew?) Director Brennan did a very good job narrating the book. Very pleasing to the ear. Highly recommended.

Should be listed as an autobiography
This book is an autobiography of John Brennan. It has maybe a chapter or chapter and a half about the current president’s administration. While I liked the book and enjoyed the information about John Brennan, I would have liked more on his dealings with the Trump White House. I like John Brennan. I think he is a decent and honest man. I was however expecting more from this book.

Excellent!
I have never read a biography of anyone in the CIA, anyone in public office, nor have I ever been compelled to. This book is different. I heard it mentioned on The Rachel Maddow show and immediately uploaded it. John Brennan did a magnificent job of sharing his lifetime experiences, in a manner that is captivating, comprehensive and fair. This book is historically significant, informative and well written (and narrated). I rarely trust anyone’s version of events, however, Former CIA Director Brennan, is believably authentic and went to great lengths to present accurate, impartial and honest information. I believe he did so with integrity and authenticity. I would love to obtain a signed copy of this book if that would be possible. I collect autographed books from people I deem honorable and courageous. Thank you, sir, for your life-long service to the United States of America. You served your country well.

An Important Story Made Frustrating By A Poor Narration
Others have reviewed the content well. I am a Brennan admirer, and believe the book needed to be written. But as is all too often the case, the author is not the right person to have read it. His narration is the most frustrating I can recall on Audible. I persevered with it because I was keen to add the content to my knowledge. But I fought the narration. He sounds nothing like the Brennan of TV and Radio interviews.
