From the moment Donald Trump was elected president-even before he was inaugurated-Democrats called for his impeachment. That call, starting on the margins of the party and the press, steadily grew until it became a deafening media and Democratic obsession. It culminated first in the Mueller report-which failed to find any evidence of criminal wrongdoing on the part of the president-and then in a failed impeachment. And yet, even now, the Democrats and their media allies insist that President Trump must be guilty of something. They still accuse him of being a Russian stooge and an obstructer of justice. They claim he was "not exonerated" by the Mueller report. But the truth, as veteran reporter Byron York makes clear-using his unequaled access to sources inside Congress and the White House-is that Democrats and the media were gripped by an anti-Trump hysteria that blinded them to reality. In a fast-moving story of real-life Washington intrigue, York reveals: Why Donald Trump-at first-resisted advice to fire FBI director James ComeyThe strategy behind the Trump defense team's full cooperation with Mueller's investigators-and how they felt betrayed by MuellerHow the Mueller team knew very early in the investigation that there was no evidence of "Russian collusion"Why the Trump defense team began to suspect that Mueller was not really in charge of the special counsel investigationWhy Nancy Pelosi gave up trying to restrain her impeachment-obsessed partyWhy Trump's lawyers-certain of his innocence in the Mueller investigation-were even less worried about the Democrats' Ukraine investigation.Byron York takes you inside the deliberations of the president's defense counsel, interviews congressional Republicans who were shocked at the extremism of their Democratic colleagues-and resolute in opposing them-and draws an unforgettable portrait of an administration under siege from an implacable-and obsessed-opposition party.

The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy

“We have to fight back.” —Al Franken The Left is angry—angry at President George W. Bush, the war in Iraq, the “right-wing media,” and more. And as National Review investigative writer Byron York reveals in this stunning, meticulously reported book, liberal activists have harnessed that anger to build the biggest, richest, and best organized political movement in American history. Indeed, the Left’s failure to oust President Bush in 2004 has obscured the fact that this new movement has transformed American politics. York documents the staggering scope of liberals’ efforts—the record sums of money spent, the “shell game” financial maneuvers, the close coordination between “nonpartisan” groups and the Democratic Party, the revolutionary approaches to fund-raising and reaching out to voters, the pioneering use of movies and websites as campaign tools, and more. The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy provides a startling behind-the-scenes look at this powerful liberal movement. York brings the reader into secret powwows at Soros’s Hamptons estate, into the Chinese restaurant where MoveOn is born, to a gala event where Al Franken rants about the evils of the right wing, to fund-raisers where liberals openly mock the election laws they’re ignoring, to the movie premiere where Michael Moore is feted by top-ranking Democrats, into the Washington restaurant where Democratic operatives hatch their plan, and to many other spots along the way. One thing above all becomes clear: Despite their failure to win in 2004, liberals will only keep improving the well-oiled political machine they built. A Main Selection of the Conservative Book Club
