1. Last Rights: The Death of American Liberty

Available on Amazon NOW - CLICK HERE

Americans today have "freedom" to be fleeced, groped, injected, harassed, surveilled, vilified, disarmed, beaten, detained, and maybe shot by federal agents. From hapless homeowners hit by SWAT raids to pandemic lockdowns pointlessly paralyzing lives, government agencies have become far more intrusive and abusive. There is no escape from tinhorn dictators seizing guns, sabotaging schooling, or wrecking housing markets. The federal government dropped an Iron Curtain of secrecy around itself while launching a "Ministry of Truth" and the worst censorship in U.S. history. The Constitution failed to leash politicians and the Bill of Rights failed to protect citizens. At a time when many Americans fear our nation is spiraling towards dictatorship or civil war, notorious investigative journalist James Bovard is back with another masterful blend of political outrages and comic relief. Last Rights explains how America went awry and how we can still rescue individual liberty.

James Bovard is the author of 11 books, including the 1994 bestseller, Lost Rights: The Destruction of American Liberty. He is a member of the USA Today Board of Contributors, a frequent contributor to the New York Post, and has written for the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and many other publications. He is a senior fellow with the Libertarian Institute and a 2023 fellow with the Brownstone Institute. His books have been translated into Spanish, Arabic, Japanese, and Korean. The Wall Street Journal called Bovard "the roving inspector general of the modern state," New York Times labeled him an "anti-czar Czar," and Washington Post columnist George Will called him a "one-man truth squad." His writings have been publicly denounced by the chief of the FBI, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Secretary of Labor, Postmaster General, and the chiefs of the TSA, DEA, and FEMA. In 2015, the Justice Department sought to suppress his articles in USA Today.
