Das Desaster der Deutschen Bahn ist kein Versehen. Es gibt Täter. Sie sitzen in Berlin. In der Bundesregierung, im Bundestag. Und seit Jahren im Tower der Deutschen Bahn. Kritik an der Deutschen Bahn bleibt oft stehen bei lustigen Englischfehlern, falschen Wagenreihungen oder ausfallenden Klimaanlagen. Doch die Malaise liegt im System: Seit der Bahnreform im Jahr 1994, nach der die Bahn an die Börse sollte, handeln die Bahn-Verantwortlichen, als wollten sie die Menschen zum Autofahrer erziehen. Arno Luik, einer der profiliertesten Bahn-Kritiker, öffnet uns mit seinem Buch die Augen.

In the 2018 best seller The Case Against Impeaching Trump, Alan Dershowitz lamented how American political discourse has devolved into hypocrisy and the criminalization of political differences.

Since then, we’ve only become more divided. The Case Against the Democratic House Impeaching Trump includes and expands upon Dershowitz’s 2018 book.
