What we’re watching is the dissipation of the American myth that the wealthy and powerful have constructed the most functional and fair world.

My new book charts that fictional history, chronicles the manipulation, and explains how we got into this mess.

This entire crisis, the pandemic, the dysfunctional executive response, Trump’s blatant and dangerous incompetence, is the result of generation’s my worth of manipulation and control that has hidden one disastrous mistake after another beneath the veneer of American myth.
American leaders have conquered and subjugated large swathes of the world while constructing an economy that favors the wealthy and powerful to the detriment of the people. This system is inhumane and has cleared the way for a fraud like Trump and a deadly pandemic.
This system is, by design, unstable and dangerous, and we’re watching it implode by the day. It feels bizarre because reality has been attacked and destroyed as a means of control of manipulation. The facade could only go on so long before something like this brought it down.
