Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gavin Newsom has been a force in California politics since the 1990s, having acquired power through the machinations of his family and friends. As mayor of San Francisco, his Hollywood mystique and historic progressive policies meant that he could do no wrong—even when he was caught having an affair with his secretary, who also happened to be his friend’s wife. Eventually, however, Newsom’s brazen pursuit of power caused even the Left to sour on him, forcing him into the purgatory that was the lieutenant governor’s office. But suave, cocky, and unrelenting, Newsom soon claimed the governorship, where he was free to insert woke policies into every aspect of Californians’ lives. With Jennifer Siebel Newsom, his glamorous but scandal-ridden “first partner,” at his side, Newsom has pushed California leftward into a dirtier and more dangerous version of itself—and positioned himself for his ultimate goal: the White House. This account probes Newsom’s life and influence, addressing the homelessness crisis, COVID lockdowns, the recall, the education wars, and his combative relationships with Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump, while also shedding new light on issues like his relationship with a teenager as mayor, his New Age wedding, and his financial scandals. As a result, the real Gavin Newsom is uncovered—the one behind the veil of media adoration.

Book excerpt: The question of whether dogs should be allowed off the leash in public places has become a major political issue in cities and suburbs across the United States. In the last two decades, "leash-law disputes" have burst upon the political scene and have been debated with an intensity usually reserved for such hot-button issues as abortion and gun rights. This book investigates what has changed in American community life, social mores, and the relationship between humans and dogs to provoke such passionate responses. At its heart, the book details and evaluates the handling of three leash-law disputes, all of which were exceedingly divisive and emotionally intense. Two of the cases took place in San Francisco, a city with a reputation as one of the most dog-friendly in the United States until 2001-2002, when officials curtailed off-leash walking. The other case study occurred in 1998 in Avon--a wealthy suburb of Hartford, Connecticut, --when town officials unilaterally imposed a leash law at a popular off-leash park. This book is not only a revealing study of Americans' conflicted attitudes toward animals and the difficult balance between individual rights and the public good in our communities. It is also a useful source of information for both dog owners and local government officials who are faced with leash-law disagreements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Property Outlaws puts forth the intriguingly counterintuitive proposition that, in the case of both tangible and intellectual property law, disobedience can often lead to an improvement in legal regulation. The authors argue that in property law there is a tension between the competing demands of stability and dynamism, but its tendency is to become static and fall out of step with the needs of society. The authors employ wide-ranging examples of the behaviors of “property outlaws”—the trespasser, squatter, pirate, or file-sharer—to show how specific behaviors have induced legal innovation. They also delineate the similarities between the actions of property outlaws in the spheres of tangible and intellectual property. An important conclusion of the book is that a dynamic between the activities of “property outlaws” and legal innovation should be cultivated in order to maintain this avenue of legal reform.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California went through a political earthquake of sorts when the state recalled Governor Gray Davis in 2003. In 2021, the state faced another political turning point with the threatened recall of Governor Gavin Newsom. Less than two years after Newsom’s overwhelming election victory, more than two million Californians signed on to the recall effort, hoping to expel him from office in a special election. How could such a monumental turnabout be possible? Normally, the political headwinds would be much too strong for a movement to oust a governor who had decisively vanquished his opponent. But--with the COVID-19 pandemic dominating every aspect of society, including politics--these weren’t normal times. Organizing a recall election is a demanding enterprise: it takes abundant political energy, tremendous amounts of anger with the status quo, and mounds of money. Yet, for the second time in less than two decades, such wheels were set in motion. What is it that makes California so dynamic yet so fragile? This book explains that paradox and, in the process, enlightens readers about the recall process, the challenges of federalism, and the pitfalls of direct democracy. It examines the underlying conditions that expose a state with poorly linked institutions, a bitterly divided society, and a governor who had to act under nearly impossible conditions, demonstrating his strengths and vulnerabilities along the way. It’s a story that could happen only in California, a state with a history of "only" stories. Designed to be useful in a variety of college courses, this book is the first to unveil the Newsom backstory and will appeal to pundits and politicos as well as interested general readers.

Book excerpt: In a time when American politics is at its lowest ebb, and when political leadership is notably absent across the ideological spectrum, one politician stands apart as a particularly unfortunate exemplar of everything that is wrong with our national leadership. Gavin Newsom. In this detailed and infuriating exposé of how big money has corrupted the political process at every level of society, businessman and philanthropist John Cox uses Newsom’s career to analyze how and why the system operates as it does. Politicians are bought and paid for by moneyed interests; media coverage is determined, first and foremost, by financial concerns; and the average citizen is fully disenfranchised from determining electoral or policy outcomes. And nowhere is this more evident—with tragic results—than in Gavin Newsom’s collapsing California. The cost of living is out of control; a homelessness epidemic is on the rise; there’s a shortage of housing, water, and energy; crime rates are at an all-time high; wildfires cause devastation at alarming rates each year; and high taxes make it nearly impossible to start a small business. We’re beginning to see these trends spread throughout the United States. As the old saying goes, “as goes California, so goes the nation.” Our system must be reformed. This book doesn’t just lay out the problems; it posits a workable and easy to implement solution that will work to get this country—and California—back on track. In The Newsom Nightmare, Cox deftly and succinctly provides an alternative that would, if implemented, put the American body politic back on solid ground.

Book excerpt: "Most Americans see the Supreme Court as the ultimate arbiter of constitutional freedoms. They are not wrong to do so: most of the major changes we have seen to our constitutional rights in the past 200 years--ending segregation, prohibiting sex discrimination, protecting political association--have come about because of decisions made by the Supreme Court. But as the award-winning constitutional scholar David Cole argues in The Spirit of Liberty, while the Supreme Court may be the final decision maker, it is not the true source of constitutional change. Citizen activists are. Many times in this nation's history, citizens have fought to get their causes on the Court's docket--and have successfully waged parallel battles in the court of public opinion, which often guides the Supreme Court's decisions. Through the stories of three successful campaigns--for same-sex marriage, against gun control, and for civil liberties in the War on Terror--Cole reveals how advocates and interest groups sway the Supreme Court and, in the process, rewrite constitutional law.

Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK · A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITOR'S CHOICE · 2022 LAMBDA LITERARY PRIZE FOR GAY FICTION FINALIST The debut novel from television WRITER/PRODUCER OF THE CHI, NARCOS, and BEL-AIR tells a fierce and riveting queer coming-of-age story following the personal and political awakening of a young, gay, Black man in 1980s New York City. "Consistently engrossing." —New York Times Book Review “Full of joy and righteous anger, sex and straight talk, brilliant storytelling and humor... A spectacularly researched Dickensian tale with vibrant characters and dozens of famous cameos, it is precisely the book we’ve needed for a long time.” —Andrew Sean Greer, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less Earl "Trey" Singleton III arrives in New York City with only a few dollars in his pocket. Born into a wealthy Black Indianapolis family, at 17, he is ready to leave his overbearing parents and their expectations behind. In the city, Trey meets up with a cast of characters that changes his life forever. He volunteers at a renegade home hospice for AIDS patients, and after being put to the test by gay rights activists, becomes a member of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP). Along the way Trey attempts to navigate past traumas and searches for ways to maintain familial relationships—all while seeking the meaning of life amid so much death. Vibrant, humorous, and fraught with entanglements, Rasheed Newson’s My Government Means to Kill Me is an exhilarating, fast-paced coming-of-age story that lends itself to a larger discussion about what it means for a young gay Black man in the mid-1980s to come to terms with his role in the midst of a political and social reckoning.

Book excerpt: In this book, Sarosh Koshy strives to go beyond the mission model of Christianity that emerged alongside and within the colonial enterprise and ethos since the sixteenth century. Rather than denounce the inheritance of the mission movement that transformed both the church and world in innumerable ways, it is a simultaneous expression of appreciation for this precious heritage, and an attempt to do justice by it through a yearning quest for relevant paradigms of Christian engagement.Indeed, there is an intense tension within this book, and in fact a twin tension at that. The tension is between those seeking to keep the current mission paradigm alive out of habit or as a self-serving device, thus corrupting and withering away a bequeathal that essentially set free the voluntary/independent spirit of Christian individuals and their intentional collectives from both the ecclesiastical and political authorities. On the other side are those who enlist mission both as a subsequent activity and as a basis to pursue innocuous, and at times apparently heroic options that would seemingly satisfy a supposed missional mandatory. This work enlists postcolonial and poststructuralist resources pedagogically, to teach of mission, missiology, World Christianity, and intercultural theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you trust our government, media, education, healthcare, technology, entertainment, banking, and investments? Should you? The small, untrustworthy group of people who own and control every one of those industries hope you will not even entertain the questions, let alone put in the time to explore the answers. These two volumes of The World Awakens are an encyclopedia of trusted sources who give their honest overview of our real history, the world today, and what lies ahead. You will get the forty-thousand-foot view from deep researchers, truth tellers, and patriots like myself, General Michael Flynn, Juan O Savin, Sidney Powell, General Thomas McInerney, Lin Wood, Patrick Byrne, Mike Lindell, Clay Clark, Praying Medic, Patel Patriot, Mike Adams, Laura Logan, the late Robert David Steele, and many many more. World war is not just on the way. This is no simulation. It is here. Today’s threat is real, making The World Awakens critically important for widely exposing uncomfortable truths. These two books are not about politics; instead, they put the evidence before you, showing how we are all participants in this conflict that continues the struggle of good against evil, life versus death. Many have woken up to the threat, but a large portion of the masses are still unaware, leaving everyone vulnerable to a relative few whose ultimate goal is complete control of the world—actually, they have had it for decades and longer—as they continue working at ways to slowly terminate us through methods that a busy, uninterested society will not stop to learn. Today’s covert battle involves a planet full of average, honorable people fighting a relatively-tiny group of world-controlling depopulationists. They desire to dominate. It’s us or them. Good people must help. Please join the fight. When your children and grandchildren ask: “What were you doing as global governance was being thrust down the throat of America and the world?” What will be your answer?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The right of same-sex couples to marry provoked decades of intense conflict before it was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2015. Yet some of the most divisive contests shaping the quest for marriage equality occurred not on the culture-war front lines but within the ranks of LGBTQ advocates. Nathaniel Frank tells the dramatic story of how an idea that once seemed unfathomable—and for many gays and lesbians undesirable—became a legal and moral right in just half a century. Awakening begins in the 1950s, when millions of gays and lesbians were afraid to come out, let alone fight for equality. Across the social upheavals of the next two decades, a gay rights movement emerged with the rising awareness of the equal dignity of same-sex love. A cadre of LGBTQ lawyers soon began to focus on legal recognition for same-sex couples, if not yet on marriage itself. It was only after being pushed by a small set of committed lawyers and grassroots activists that established movement groups created a successful strategy to win marriage in the courts. Marriage equality proponents then had to win over members of their own LGBTQ community who declined to make marriage a priority, while seeking to rein in others who charged ahead heedless of their carefully laid plans. All the while, they had to fight against virulent antigay opponents and capture the American center by spreading the simple message that love is love, ultimately propelling the LGBTQ community—and America—immeasurably closer to justice.

Book excerpt: Few would dispute the pitching greatness of Sandy Koufax--but was Paul Pettit better? Jim Baxes was once compared to the great Pie Traynor yet few baseball fans have ever heard of him. John Elway was undeniably one of the greatest quarterbacks in pro football history but could he have been an even better baseball player? For most fans greatness is measured in trophies and awards and confirmed by consistency over time. During his 70 years in baseball, renowned scout George Genovese witnessed some of the most talented players ever to play the game--some of them unknown to fans. He recalls the careers of unsung greats like Nestor Chavez, Matt Harrington and Derek Tatsuno, who never gained lasting fame despite unrivaled talent.
