Dupes By Paul Kengor, PhD


AMERICAN “DUPES” FOR RUSSIA: 
THE LONG AND UGLY HISTORY

Bestselling author Paul Kengor reveals the Ted Kennedy scandals worse than Chappaquiddick - how Stalin played FDR, Hollywood dupes, and much more...

Dr. Paul Kengor reveals all the details in an updated edition of his timeless book, Dupes: How America’s Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for a Century, about progressives who were knowing accomplices and/or victims of deception. In the years since Dupes was first published, many new dupes have revealed themselves - including an entire generation inclined to think favorably of Communism, ignorant of the crimes against humanity committed in its name. Equally important, more information has emerged about the duping that occurred in the 20th century.

Turn on cable TV and you’ll find breathless coverage of supposed collusion between Russia and the American president. Lost in this story are the shocking reports of a leading U.S. politician who actually tried to collaborate with the Russian leadership. The politician in question is now in the news for another scandal: Senator Ted Kennedy, whose ugly actions are the subject of the acclaimed new movie, “Chappaquiddick.”

Now, New York Times bestselling author Paul Kengor, PhD reveals another Kennedy scandal as ugly as Chappaquiddick: Ted Kennedy secretly approached the Russian leadership to undermine not one but two American presidents. The Kennedy story is just one of many stunning revelations in a book that exposes the legions of liberals who have (wittingly and unwittingly) aided America’s most dangerous opponents.

Based on never-before published FBI files, Soviet archives, and other primary sources, Dupes also reveals:

·     How Franklin Roosevelt was duped by “Uncle Joe” Stalin - and by a top adviser who may have been a Soviet agent - despite clear warnings from fellow Democrats;
·     Jimmy Carter’s woeful record dealing with America’s two chief foes of the past century;
·     How John Kerry’s accusations that American soldiers committed war crimes in Vietnam may have been the product of Soviet disinformation;
·     Soviet records that demonstrate beyond doubt the Communists’ targeting of American liberals;
·     How liberals still defend the same Communists who trashed Democratic icons - and still attack the anti-Communists who tried to spare those Democrats from manipulation;
·     A potpourri of political-ideological outrages of the Obama years, including the stunning evidence of the extensive Communist ties of Barack Obama’s mentor;
·     Today’s dupes, including:
·     the dupes of the War on Terror;
·     a high-profile movie portraying Dalton Trumbo as a persecuted freedom fighter rather than an apologist for the USSR;
·     New York Times articles insisting Communism “made women’s lives better” and even gave them “better sex;” and how Angela Davis, honorary co-chair of the “Women’s March” in 2017, was a hardcore Communist;
·     New York City, itself, which has twice elected Mayor de Blasio, who in the 1980s was so pro-Communist that he once sold subscriptions to the Nicaraguan Sandinistas’ hardline party newspaper; and
·     The biggest shocker which happened in the 2016 presidential primaries, when Bernie Sanders - a self-avowed socialist who spent part of his youth on a Marxist-Stalinist kibbutz in Israel and honeymooned with his wife in the Soviet Union - received 13 million votes... and who edged out Sanders among the Democrats? Hillary Clinton, a student of Saul Alinsky, won the popular vote in the general election.

It’s a disturbing trend when survey data since the 2008 election of Barack Obama confirms that millennials and young people in general increasingly say they prefer socialism over capitalism. Common sense facts don’t matter to those who believe more people were killed under George W. Bush than under Joseph Stalin, who annihilated tens of millions. As Stalin said in 1930, “Never mind, they’ll swallow it.”

“A detailed, riveting history of those who secretly served the enemy. Not to be missed!”
--PETER SCHWEIZER, bestselling author of “Secret Empires” and “Clinton Cash”

“Nothing short of horrifying... In terms of putting the last 100 years in perspective, Dupes may be one of the most significant literary offerings of our time.” --Washington Times

About the Author: Paul Kengor, PhD, is the New York Times bestselling author of “A Pope and a President,” “God and Ronald Reagan,” “The Crusader,” and other books. He is a professor of political science and executive director of the Center for Vision and Values at Grove City College.

Ruling Ideas By David Horowitz

The Black Book of the American Left
Volume IX: Ruling Ideas
By David Horowitz

New York Times best-selling author David Horowitz's new book is Ruling Ideas, Volume IX of The Black Book of the American Left, a multi-volume collection of his conservative writings that is the most ambitious effort ever undertaken to define the Left and its agenda. The Black Book of the American Left collects all of Horowitz's writings over the last thirty years - at once a sharp incision to the heart of the Left's agenda; an exploration of routes conservatives might take in response to its permanent assault on America's values and power; and a unique trip log showing the evolving intellectual journey of one of our bravest and most original thinkers.

The previous eight volumes have explored the battlegrounds - the university, racial relations, popular culture, etc. - where the left attempts to "radically transform" America. This ninth and final volume of The Black Book of the American Left is a summary look at the ideas in the bone marrow of the left, the ideas that give it momentum and make this war against America a forever war.

Chief among them is the notion that “equality” must be created by any means necessary. But because disparities and disproportions of talent, intelligence and physical ability are so intrinsic and so basic to the entire human enterprise, creating “equality” requires the violence of social engineering, which is why the utopias of the Left always turn out to be killing fields. The demands for “social justice” by today’s progressives are another version of the demands for equality by yesterday’s Marxist Leninists. Both produce the destruction of human freedom.

Horowitz’s understanding that the agenda of the Left is to wage war against freedom - especially the freedom of individuals to resist its social redeemers and their malign plans - is what led David Horowitz to devote the last forty years of his life - and all nine volumes of The Black Book of the American Left - to opposing this destructive cause.

In Ruling Ideas, you will learn about:

·     The fate of the Marxist idea
·     Slavery and the modern reparations movement
·     America’s second Civil War, “People of Color” and Black Lives Matter
·     Identity politics - the antithesis of the American idea
·     The irrational treatment of President Trump by the Democrats
·     David’s relationship with Christopher Hitchens

We encourage our readers to visit BlackBookOfTheAmericanLeft.com, which features Horowitz’s introductions to Volumes 1-8 of this 10-volume series, along with their tables of contents, reviews and interviews with the author. (Order HERE.) 

About the Author: David Horowitz is the bestselling author of numerous books including Big Agenda: President Trump’s Plan to Save America (2017), Unholy Alliance (2004), The Party of Defeat (2008) and Take No Prisoners: The Battle Plan for Defeating the Left (2014). David is the founder and chairman of the David Horowitz Freedom Center which is dedicated to the defense of free societies whose moral, cultural and economic foundations are under attack by enemies both secular and religious, at home and abroad.

The Trump White House By Ronald Kessler

The Trump White House
Changing the Rules of the Game
Includes an Exclusive Interview with President Trump

By New York Times Best-selling Author Ronald Kessler

The Unvarnished and Unbiased Inside Story of President Donald Trump and His White House

Based on exclusive interviews with President Trump and his staff, THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE: Changing the Rules of the Game, by Ronald Kessler, tells the real story of what Donald Trump is like, who influences him, how he makes decisions, what he says about the people around him, and how he operates when the television lights go off, while portraying the inside story of the successes that have already brought solid results as well as the stumbles that have turned off even longtime supporters and undercut his agenda.

THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE is the book Trump's fans have been waiting for. The book is unique because it is the only overall favorable book on Trump and his presidency. At the same time, the book is an honest journalistic effort with negative items and inside tidbits that will keep both sides turning the pages.

THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE reveals:


  • Trump aides Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner have been responsible for Trump’s most disastrous decisions. Trump is aware that his daughter and son-in-law are problems and has hinted to them that they should go back to New York. Seeing Jared on TV, Trump said, “Look at Jared, he looks like a little boy, like a child.”
  • First Lady Melania Trump has a tremendous impact on policy and strategy. She sits in on meetings and is widely admired by aides for her judgment. Trump’s butler attested that “Melania rules the roost.”
  • Kellyanne Conway is the number one White House leaker.
  • Trump’s Secret Service director Randolph “Tex” Alles proposed withdrawing protection from some family members and aides to save money. Horrified White House staffers shot down the idea.
  • Trump has told friends that billionaires are constantly asking him to fix them up with longtime Communications Director Hope Hicks, a former model, but he says he refuses.
  • Trump calls certain reporters directly, feeding them stories attributed to “a senior White House official,” creating the impression that the White House leaks even more than it already does.

Never before has an American president had so much impact on the country and the world in so short a time as Donald Trump. Yet no president has stirred so much controversy, dominating media coverage and conversation both pro and con. Yet for all the media coverage, Trump remains a cipher.

Months after Trump took office, consumer confidence hit a seventeen-year high, unemployment plummeted to the lowest level in seventeen years, and the stock market zoomed to repeated record highs.

At the same time, ISIS was nearly defeated, Arab countries banded together to stop financing terrorists and promoting radical Islamic ideology, and Trump’s decision to send missiles into Syria because of its use of chemical weapons and his strident warnings to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un made it clear to adversaries that they take on the United States at their peril.

Ronald Kessler has known Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for two decades and understands him better than any other journalist. The book includes an exclusive interview with The President - the only interview he says he has given or will give for a book as president.

Complete with color photographs, THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE is filled with anecdotes that flesh out the human being that is Donald Trump: his generosity, his tirades, his contrition... as he displays the tough, rough exterior and hides his soft emotional side. Crammed with media-grabbing revelations, THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE is the inside story that answers the question: Who is Donald Trump?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: RONALD KESSLER is the New York Times bestselling author of The First Family Detail, The Secrets of the FBI, In the President’s Secret Service, and The CIA at War. A former Wall Street Journal and Washington Post investigative reporter, Kessler has won eighteen journalism awards, including two George Polk Awards - one for national reporting and one for community service. He was named a Washingtonian of the Year by Washingtonian magazine.
